National assignment on the radar for Vintage hero Zavateri
A trip to Ireland for the Goffs Vincent O'Brien National Stakes could be next on the agenda for Zavateri following his hard-fought success at Goodwood on Tuesday. Following a successful debut at Salisbury in early June, the Without Parole colt sprang something of a surprise when landing Newmarket's July Stakes last month, but proved that victory was no fluke when bagging a second Group Two success in the Vintage Stakes on the Sussex Downs. Trainer Eve Johnson Houghton will now look to test her star juvenile at Group One level, potentially at the Curragh on September 14. 'He's come out of Goodwood great,' said the Blewbury-based trainer. 'He is unbelievable because he thought he'd won his race, he'd switched off and then good old Morris Dancer came for him and you could see him flick his ears, change his legs and almost say 'oh for goodness sake, come on then!'. 'We'll look at the Dewhurst but that's quite a long way off, he's in the National Stakes too so that would be quite a nice start for him with the timing – National and then Dewhurst. 'He's fantastic, I'm so proud of him. It's very, very exciting.'

Brand Radar: ROTATE's Danish glamour with edge and ease
Copenhagen-based fashion brand Rotate is known for bold, vibrant partywear that breaks from the typically minimalist Scandinavian style. Founded in 2018 by influencers-turned-designers Jeanette Madsen and Thora Valdimarsdottir, the label fills a gap they saw in their own wardrobes for fun, statement pieces. It quickly gained a following for its sequined minis, playful prints, and daring silhouettes. Rotate's target audience spans youthful, fashion-forward consumers worldwide who are not afraid to stand out in a crowd with empowering style. Brand history and evolution Rotate began as a capsule collaboration under Danish luxury retailer Birger Christensen. After a successful debut at Copenhagen Fashion Week, the project was made permanent due to high demand. By late 2019, the brand was already earning industry accolades; Forbes named it a 'Brand to Watch' and it snagged Denmark's Elle Style Award for Brand of the Year. Today the brand boasts retail distribution in forty countries and is carried by over 450 stockists, from luxury e-tailers to boutiques, serving customers across Europe, the US, and the Middle East. While Rotate first made its name with vibrant party dresses and bold silhouettes, the brand has recently begun embracing more muted tones and classic silhouettes. This evolution aligns with a broader industry trend toward more timeless, versatile pieces and reflects Rotate's desire to remain relevant beyond special occasion wear. The autumn/winter 2025 collection, for instance, features softer palettes, structured tailoring, and understated fabrics that maintain the brand's signature attitude while still featuring sequined and coloured staples. Credits: ROTATE Key success factors and social media buzz A major driver of Rotate's success is its savvy use of social media. The label was born digital-first; its co-founders leveraged their own influence, over 450,000 Instagram followers combined, and a dedicated brand Instagram, which has around 380,000 followers as of 2025, to build hype. Early on, Madsen and Valdimarsdottir sent their eye-catching dresses to fashion influencer friends, leading to quick viral exposure and instant sell-outs when stars like Leonie Hanne donned Rotate. This organic buzz translated into buyers from major retailers placing orders from the first collection. On TikTok, Rotate is also making strides: the brand's hashtag challenges, like #makeitrotate, have amassed hundreds of thousands of views. Embracing creative content, from behind-the-scenes styling clips to augmented-reality try-ons, has helped Rotate engage Gen Z fans on emerging platforms. Collections and pricing Rotate releases two main collections per year, spring/summer and autumn/winter, showcased at Copenhagen Fashion Week, alongside several capsule lines. More recently it expanded into bridal attire with Rotate Wedding, launched 2022, to offer modern, wedding looks. In terms of pricing, Rotate sits in the contemporary segment, offering an accessible luxury price range. Core pieces from the latest collection on its webshop range roughly from about 180 euros up to 700 euros. A Satin Fitted Top is listed at 190 euros, while an ornate Satin Bow Dress sells for around 700 euros. In between, the brand's signature party dresses typically retail in the 300 euro to 400 euro range. Credits: Polina Vinogradova Future outlook Looking ahead, Rotate shows no signs of slowing down. The company earned B Corp certification in 2024, underscoring its commitment to sustainability and ethics as it grows. This aligns with a broader vision to empower women through fashion in a conscious way. The brand has also embraced innovation in the digital space, exploring artificial intelligence, augmented reality, and metaverse integrations to stay ahead of emerging trends. These initiatives complement the brand's continued expansion into new categories, such as bags, jewelry, and other accessories, and new markets.
