Per a leaked e-mail to the TELEGRAPH, TERRY RICHARDSON is barred from working with CONDÉ NAST INTERNATIONAL titles. Richardson has been the subject of several sexual abuse claims for years, but it hasn't stopped him from working with some of fashion's top magazines and brands. ROBIN GIVHAN's statement hits home here: "The facts of Richardson’s behavior have not changed over the past few years. Only the context." Career-obliterating scandals like that of HARVEY WEINSTEIN and activism from the MODEL ALLIANCE and model CAMERON RUSSELL serve as motivation to stand against sexual abuse today, but what about all the years prior? It's important for companies to take unilateral action against sexual abuse. Yet in Richardson's case, the action feels not only years overdue, but misguided. Richardson should have been out long ago. And per models' stories, the abuse isn't exclusive to one photographer. How about prevention? How about zero tolerance? VALENTINO and BULGARI told THE DAILY BEAST there are no future plans to work with Richardson. Richardson responded through a publicist that he's "disappointed" with Condé's decision. Meanwhile everyone's disappointed we have to have the same debate over and over again. Richardson has become a symbol—a specter of apparent abuse kept silent for decades—but it's everyone's problem. What can the industry do to prevent the abuse rather than react after it goes widely public?... It appears HUDSON'S BAY COMPANY is bowing to pressures from an activist investor by leveraging its real estate portfolio, selling its flagship LORD & TAYLOR building to WEWORK. Both companies' reputations have been hinging on a game of "are-you-or-aren't-you a real estate company?" lately. HBC has been pressured by activist investor LAND & BUILDINGS (guess what it does) to operate more like a real estate company, while WeWork has distanced itself from the real estate industry after accusations it's being "fueled by SILICON VALLEY pixie dust." That's whiplash headline speak for overvalued. Meet in the middle and you've got a very different building at 424 FIFTH AVENUE in NYC. RETAIL DIVE has a report on what might be next for HBC. In its strides toward mighty morphin' into a lifestyle company, WeWork recently opened a gym and wellness space, covered in the NEW YORK TIMES under the banner headline, "We Work. We Live. We Work Out. Eventually We Die." Funny. I'm convinced it was written by DARIA MORGENDORFFER. As far as retail goes, it seems that HBC, in its triage, has forgotten the customer. It owns some highly visible names in retail: SAKS FIFTH AVENUE, GILT, and LORD & TAYLOR. Why not take the opportunity to try out some radical retail? Nothing to lose but real estate... Photogrammetry for fashion... Gold and stardust... Here's something for you: smash face into bread. That's right. Face, meet bread. A stunning variety of breads. Are you supposed to eat it afterward? Auction it for a cause? Is this gluten free? Breadface (of @breadfaceblog fame) wears SIDNEY GARBER, REPOSSI, and CHANEL while—wait for it—smashing face into bread.
