Men’s fashion weeks in Milan and Paris are shifting the dates to later in January to keep the beginning of the menswear buying cycle to a "safety distance" from the Christmas holidays so that journalists and buyers don’t disrupting their holiday season. Florence-based international trade show Pitti Uomo, Italy’s Camera della Moda and Paris’ Fédération Fran?aise de la Couture have agreed to shift their dates of their men’s fashion weeks and set them for the next three years to avoid any overlap i

London Fashion Week designer Henry Holland has followed in the footsteps of Karl Lagerfeld and Zac Posen by teaming up with ice-cream brand Magnum.
