The Ritz-Carlton and Late Checkout Launch Debut Capsule Collection in NYC

Last night, the fashion world gathered at the iconic Ritz-Carlton New York, Central Park to witness the launch of the first-ever capsule collection from The Ritz-Carlton and Late Checkout, the acclaimed Madrid-based menswear label. The exclusive event attracted top-tier celebrities, including Josh Hutcherson, Aoki Lee Simmons, and Antoni Porowski, along with a curated guest list of fashion enthusiasts and VIPs. The collection, aptly named Late Checkout: A Ritz-Carlton Story, redefines the concept of luxury fashion by blending Late Checkout’s modern, hotel-inspired aesthetic with The Ritz-Carlton’s timeless opulence.

This ten-piece capsule collection, characterized by rich blue hues and subtle nods to The Ritz-Carlton’s signature crest and lion emblem, invites wearers to explore a new level of contemporary elegance. Each garment tells a unique story, merging adventure, whimsy, and indulgence, and pushing the boundaries of traditional menswear design. The collection was revealed in an intimate and immersive setting, designed to transport guests into the cinematic world of the campaign. Directed by Rogelio and produced by Little Spain, the visual narrative features award-winning actor Josh Hutcherson, who brought the story to life through a whimsical, storybook-like film that perfectly encapsulates the playful yet aspirational spirit of the collection.

Fashion insiders and guests were able to view the capsule collection firsthand, set against the breathtaking backdrop of Central Park. They also experienced a unique blend of heritage and modernity through meticulously crafted pieces that bridge classic style with contemporary artistry. Each design, from the structured jackets to the impeccably tailored trousers, showcased the skillful integration of The Ritz-Carlton’s hospitality ethos into wearable fashion.

The Late Checkout: A Ritz-Carlton Story capsule collection is now available for purchase exclusively on The Ritz-Carlton Shops and will be featured in a curated retail experience at The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island starting on October 19. This collaboration marks a new era for The Ritz-Carlton as it continues to set trends not only in luxury hospitality but also in the fashion industry, demonstrating its ability to innovate and inspire across diverse platforms.

The Hottest Looks For Your Next Pickleball Match By AVI

Annabella Pardo

It’s 2023 and Pickeball is one of the fastest growing sports nationwide. There’s a very likely chance you’ve already been playing for a while or have invitations from friends to join this oh so popular and social sport. With any social gathering there is always one pressing question to address, What will you wear?!

AVI was founded in Miami and focuses on one simple but important principle: elevating niche sports like Pickleball by creating the exceptional apparel athletes and enthusiasts deserve.

Photo via @aviathletics

AVI was founded by their namesake, Avi (you might also notice his handsome dog, Baker, on the site). Avi grew up playing tennis, competing at a collegiate level. But when he discovered Pickleball, he put down the racquet and picked up a paddle. It’s this background that allows him to understand the sport and the community that’s grown around it. He believes that everyone who shares his love for Pickleball— from professional athletes to casual enthusiasts— deserves well-constructed, expertly designed clothing made just for their sport. It’s a belief that carries through to everything AVI does, and it’s why Avi created the first clothing line with Pickleball specifically in mind.

AVI only creates clothing and apparel that exceed standards for aesthetic and performance. This is clothing that looks and feels good, with zero compromise.

AVI develops and sources innovative materials that are designed to work with your body, especially when you’re most active. These clothes are meant for motion, and are durable to hold up even in high-intensity moments.

AVI draws inspiration from contemporary fashion and minimalism, as well as classic sportswear design. The clothes are designed to look just as good off the court as they do in motion.

AVI carefully selects every material used in the construction of their apparel. Their clothing is designed to provide an exceptional experience: from the all-day comfort of the fabric, to unique materials that move with you.

AVI take steps to ensure that their partners practice fair and equitable labor laws. That means safe working environments, fair pay, and fair treatment. They believe in the importance of a healthy planet. Which is why they only source materials and manufacturing from those who believe the same and follow strict environmental policies. AVI does everything they can to minimize their carbon footprint. Their partners minimize their waste and water use, and they use recyclable materials whenever possible.

5 Signs Your Workwear Needs an Update

By Peter Minkoff

Most of us look at work clothes as nothing but that. Just business attire. This is why often times we don't pay too much attention to make it look as nice as our other outfits. However, you should invest some time, money, and creativity in your work clothes, and here is how you can update it easily.

Not modern enough

In the era of fast-changing fashion trends, it is hard to keep up and be modern at all times, especially when it comes to working clothes, which we don't buy that often. However, you will look modern in your business attire by investing in a tailored suit for example. The benefits are that it will be done just by your measures, which automaticity makes it a perfect fit, and an elegant piece. Another way to do it is to invest in quality shoes, purses, and accesories, which will complete every outfit. Choose more subtle pieces like pearl or stud earrings, or pendant necklaces, because they are appropriate and also very fashionable.

Not your style

A good way to make your work clothes more interesting and update it easily is to make it fit your personal style. This means that you can use the trends you love and incorporate them into those formal outfits. Pleated skirts are very trendy, and they can be a great piece for the office, paired with a turtleneck and a statement belt. If you don't like to wear heels, subtle ankle boots will do the trick. Oversized trend is something we all love, especially because it's so comfortable, so why not get a sweater like that with some dark wash high waisted jeans, and heels, and make it look professional, yet casual enough.

You don’t wear dresses

Whenever you hear business clothes, your mind probably goes to pencil skirts, pants, and blazers, which are a great option. However, another practical and classy solution are dresses. Long-sleeved, Realization Par dress is perfect for any weather, and you can pair them with a blazer over the top, and some ballet flats, or classic pumps. To make it even more interesting you can choose different designs and patterns like floral, or polka dots. Make a high bun, subtle makeup, and let the dress speak for itself since it's perfect for those casual days at the office. If you want a safer option, a knee-length body dress with a beige coat and purse will look elegant and fashionable.

You don’t dress according to your needs

Depending on the type of job, and the dress code, you can create your essential guide for work clothes, so that you are sure you always look good. Work clothes can be formal, business casual, or casual. If you need to look classy and professional at all times, make sure you have pantsuits, pencil skirts, and shirts in your wardrobe. Quality shoes are also a must, together with a purse, you will be able to put all your necessities in. For business casual, blouses, dresses, jeans, and loose pants are an option, as well as ankle boots, flats, or oxford shoes. If your work allows casual clothing, just make sure you don't wear too revealing and tight pieces, otherwise everything works, even trainers, jumpsuits, jeans, t-shirts, and sweaters.

You are not playing with work clothes

Prints are a huge trend in the last few seasons. Plaid, stripes, houndstooth, dots, and even animal prints can be seen in skirts, blouses, shirts, and even pants, blazers, and coats. These pieces look trendy, yet very elegant, and despite what you may think can be easily combined. If you choose one such piece, make sure all the others are basic, simple, and monochrome. Stick to the same colors, and don't use more than three different ones. Tie the whole look by pairing shoes or purses that have the same print, or even use jewelry and belts. Another good advice to make it look fashionable is to mix fabrics, like silk with sweaters, denim with cotton, and wool with leather. Animal prints can be a bit tricky, but start with details like silk scarves, purses, or shoes, and when you feel a bit more comfortable, combine animal print skirts with turtlenecks, sweaters, blazers, and leather jackets.

Work clothes can often be different than what we would normally wear. This is why it is important to incorporate some of your styles in it, play with designs, prints and patterns, and experiment until you find what works best for you.
