Knitwear designers are a hot — but rare — commodity as luxury brands pile into the booming category. In Paris, Rick Owens, Loewe and Chloé offered intensely personal responses to a world turned upside down, reports Tim Blanks. Sanctions on Russia's Alrosa, the world's biggest diamond miner, will quickly reverberate throughout the jewellery industry, experts say. BoF Professional analysis now unlocked for non-members: New designer Matthieu Blazy aims to reconnect Bottega Veneta with its Italian pedigree, elevating handcraft over 'obsession with technology and newness.' This BoF Careers Week, explore over 4,000 industry-wide job opportunities, from design to fashion's supply chain, with applicant advice from Nanushka's managing director.
