Heidi Klum wins Halloween again

Heidi Klum is the Queen of Halloween—there’s no doubt about that. But this year, the German supermodel took things to the next level by dressing up as an alien, complete with prosthetic rotting fleesh, exposed heart and intenstines. It’s not for the faint of heart, for sure. She made sure the rest of the world could get in on her preparation by doing a “Halloween with Heidi Klum” livestream with Amazon which spanned over 14 hours—talk about dedication.

Dubai is a luxurious and fascinating place with a soul focused on the future, always in pursuit of the imagination,” said Giorgio Armani in a statement.

Zac Posen closes its doors

After almost 20 years in business, Zac Posen has announced that his labels—including House of Z and Z Spoke—is ceasing operations after failing to secure an investment in time. The company is now in the process of disposing its assets, and the Spring/Summer 2020 collection that was shown during New York Fashion Week back in September will not be produced. However, his role as the womenswear creative director of Brooks Brothers will continue. The American designer posted a heartfelt post on Instagram, saying: “I want to express my appreciation to our extraordinary team and for all those who have stood by me and the brand. I owe a great deal of gratitude for their unwavering support for and dedication to the Company. I am grateful to the team who lent their incomparable talent and commitment along the way. I remain incredibly proud of what we created and hopeful for the future. Love ZP.”
