Hungry for Beauty, Fragrance Marks & Spencer Taps Floral

LONDON — September is shaping as much as be a landmark month for Marks & Spencer, which is returning to the elite FTSE 100 index of the London Stock Exchange on the back of sales and profit growth, and investing further in its beauty business. Third-party brands are proving to be big money-spinners for the division and now represent 42 percent of total sales at M&S Beauty. The shop said it has been seeing a big crossover between clothing, home and wonder customers, and next month it'll begin stocking greater than 30 Estée Lauder fragrances in-store and online.

Zegna Looks to Future, Marks tenth Edition of Scholarship

MILAN — Zegna continues to take a longterm view. The Ermenegildo Zegna Founder’s Scholarship is marking its tenth edition as the luxurious menswear company renews its commitment to Italian graduate students for an additional 15 years. In 2014, the Ermenegildo Zegna Group earmarked 25 million euros to stimulate excellence in Italy. The group pledged to offer 1 million euros every year for 25 years to enable talented Italian graduates to pursue postgraduate studies or conduct research outside of Italy. The funds are granted given that those students return to Italy upon completion of their programs abroad. The aim is to forestall a “brain drain” that always affects Italy.

3.Paradis in Paris, Ludacris at MAGIC, Annabel’s Marks a Birthday

HOMECOMING: For the very first show of his 10-year-old label 3.Paradis, in his home city of Paris as well, founder and inventive director Emeric Tchatchoua didn’t want just any venue. On June 26, he’ll be taking up Square des Périchaux, a public garden in Paris’ eclectic and mostly residential fifteenth arrondissement, to present “Journey of Dreams,” a spring 2024 collection meant to “commemorate the strategy of living our dreams,” in keeping with the label. Tchatchoua, who grew up within the neighborhood, felt it was “deeply vital for us to make use of this moment to encourage everyone who has a dream,” along with marking his intention of implanting the brand fully in Paris. After studying at Montreal’s ESMM Fashion School, the Paris-born designer...

Prai Pioneers the ‘Neck Bar’ Offering Massage, Yoga at

LONDON — Prai Beauty is taking its specialist skincare to a latest level, opening what often is the industry’s first neck bar at Marks & Spencer, offering services comparable to yoga, massage and skin consultations using a handheld device. The Neck Bar has opened at M&S Leeds White Rose, with more to come back across the country. The opening of the stand-alone bars is a milestone for Prai, which until now had only offered hands-on services, comparable to “neckcials,” through pop-ups at M&S, and on Princess, Carnival and Seabourn cruise ships. The services at M&S are free and complement Prai’s already robust business at the shop. The Prai Beauty Ageless Throat & Decolletage Crème, which retails for 26.99 kilos, has long been...
