Fear of God recruits Catherine Jacquet as director of operations
To achieve this, the CEO called on an expert in the premium and luxury sectors: Catherine Jacquet. General manager of Maison Michel, a milliner part of the Chanel galaxy, between 2014 and 2018, general manager of the high-end Parisian brand Lemaire from 2019 to 2022 and having advised numerous premium brands and designers on their structuring, the executive has been supporting the brand since the beginning of the year and has been appointed Director of Operations.
Fear of God, founded in 2013, currently relies on a main line in which beautiful sleeved pieces combine with ample suits in Italian fabrics and rub shoulders with denim and knitwear, with a more casual spirit. The brand also offers a second line, christened "Essentials," composed of more accessible basics with T-shirts and hoodies, mostly plain. In fact, it was around a collaboration between the NBA and this line initiated in 2018 that the label, which is said to generate sales of between 150 and 200 million euros, was present in Paris during the last Men's Fashion Week.
The brand has also signed an agreement with Adidas for the development of a technical line, with sneaker launches starting in 2021. With a presence in over a hundred retailers, the brand has also grown in department store networks, notably with corners at Nordstrom and Selfridges.
The brand, whose primary markets are the United States and Great Britain, is increasingly taking care of its image. It has asserted its premium positioning with Zegna. And it plays on the fluidity of its wardrobe, dressing more and more women in its campaigns with its pieces exploited for oversize silhouettes.

Aviteur launches capsule with Harrods exclusive ahead of US debut
Luxury luggage and accessories brand Aviteur has unveiled a Travel Capsule Collection that has just launched exclusively at Harrods in London. Ahead of its US launch, the label (which was founded by Patricia Gucci who remains creative director), said the partnership with 'one of the world's most iconic department stores marks a key milestone in Aviteur's global brand evolution'. The star piece in the collection is the all-new Carry-On 25, joined by three core styles: the Weekender, Duffle, and Laptop Case. The items are all produced in Italy and the company said the new capsule 'continues Aviteur's legacy of blending old-world craftsmanship with contemporary sophistication'. What that means in practice is an interesting mix of materials with a lightweight, aviation-grade polycarbonate shell, wrapped in Italian leather, lined in washable Alcantara, and finished with Aviteur's signature woven rattan-inspired texture. Available in walnut and black, these pieces are ultra-luxury — with prices ranging from £2,950 for the Carry-on 25, up to £8,975 for the full set. As mentioned, it's launched at Harrods first and will also be available at Just One Eye in Los Angeles and via Aviteur's own webstore.
