Victoria's Secret continues its rebrand with a new campaign, starring Paloma Elsesser, Bella Hadid and more

The lingerie giant is launching a new campaign entitled "Undefinable," as part of its ongoing makeover to appear more inclusive, straying from its original Angels brand. The message? Beauty is undefinable. The campaign stars the likes of Paralympian Femita Ayanbeku, models Bella Hadid and Paloma Elsesser and more. "The cast featured in this campaign represents the multifaceted, honest and ever-evolving beauty of womanhood, a journey that is only each individual’s to choose," says Amy Hauk, chief executive officer of Victoria's Secret and Pink. {WWD}

TikTok is said to be launching live shopping in the U.S.

TikTok is reportedly in conversations with TalkShopLive to provide a system for live shopping features on the video-sharing app. The company has been testing the feature in the U.K. since last year, but projections from a July Financial Times report suggested that the project did not live up to the company's expectations. TikTok and TalkShopLive raised $6 million in a seed extension round last year for the project, but have yet to finalize any plans. {TechCrunch}

Ye, the artist previously known as Kanye West, sits down with "Vogue" before debuting YZY Season 9

For Vogue, Luke Leitch sat down with Ye to discuss his journey in fashion, which has all led up to Monday's YZY Season 9 runway show in Paris. The interview is a gold mine of the captivating and as Leitch puts it, "delicious" quotes with which artist has become synonymous with. Ye has presented 11 runway collections in his career, and has developed a clear idea of his role in fashion in the process. He also talks about his failed Gap collaboration, attributing its demise to Gap overcharging for the collection, among other details. To wrap it all up in a nice bow, North West, Ye's daughter, stands up mid-Ye-sentence, cueing that the interview is over. {Vogue}

California passes new law banning toxic "forever chemicals" 

The new law will prohibit the manufacturing, sale or distribution of new fabric and garments that contain "forever chemicals," toxic chemicals that do not break down naturally and accumulate when absorbed in the human body. The chemicals, perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS), are commonly used to make clothing waterproof or stain-resistant. The ban will be put into effect in January 2025 and require brands to use "the least toxic alternative." {Business of Fashion}
