The “Sex and the City” reboot finally has a release date.
The much-anticipated series, titled “And Just Like That,” will debut on HBO Max on Dec. 9 with two episodes. The show will then release new episodes weekly.
The series’ first official trailer was also released today, showing actresses Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis as their beloved characters Carrie Bradshaw, Miranda Hobbes and Charlotte York, respectively. The trailer also shows many of the reboot’s new cast members, including Sara Ramirez, Sarita Choudhury, Nicole Ari Parker and Karen Pittman, as well as some returning characters like Chris Noth as Mr. Big, David Eigenberg as Steve Brady and the late Willie Garson as Stanford Blatch, who passed away on Sept. 21 amid filming after a battle with cancer.
“And Just Like That” picks up 11 years after the show’s cast came together for the second “Sex and the City” movie. The original series aired on HBO from 1998 to 2004 and was followed by two films released in 2008 and 2010.
When the reboot was announced this January, it was described as following the characters “as they navigate the journey from the complicated reality of life in their 30s to the even more

Sara and Erin Foster are spilling some of their beauty secrets.
The comedic sisters recently spoke to WWD about their visit to New York City’s Allure store, all things skin care and beauty and their successful clothing brand Favorite Daughter, which they launched in December.
The duo, based in Los Angeles, revealed what they find most important when it comes to skin care, their go-to brands and why it’s crucial to embrace the natural aging process. Scroll on for more.
WWD: What do you love about the Allure Store?
Erin Foster: I really love having a really great, curated group of beauty products that you can trust. So, you come in here and you know that there’s a whole section of products that have the Allure Beauty Expert Award-winning stamp of approval on them, and to me, that does all the legwork for you. You don’t have to ask around [to] all your friends about what the best stuff is. You just walk into the Allure Store and if it’s there, you know it’s good.
Sara Foster: There’s such an oversaturation of products, and to Erin’s point, it’s so nice to have this one place where you can walk in and know that every single

On Monday, Balenciaga’s Hacker Project will launch in pop-up and pop-in stores globally.
The Hacker Project will be introduced in 74 physical spaces worldwide with Balenciaga pieces that reinterpret Gucci codes and in so doing, question the idea of branding, appropriating and counterfeiting.
Stand-alone pop-up stores and transformed Balenciaga store spaces will take creative approaches to present the project’s ideas and products — cross-branded ready-to-wear, accessories, bags and cases. Each physical launch highlights special activations and exclusives that transform surrounding areas and recontextualize the brand, further investigating the Hacker Project’s themes.
Among the pop-up locations are Dover Street Market Hôtel de Coulanges in Paris; Galeries Lafayette in Paris; Harrods in London; Bon Genie in Geneva and Lausanne; Saks Fifth Avenue stores in Houston, New York, Troy and Atlanta; Ssense in Montreal; Tokyo Isetan Stage in Japan; Boon the Shop in Seoul; Shinsegae Times Square in Seoul; Lotte Main in Seoul; Harbour City in Hong Kong; Sanlitun — The Red House in Beijing; Heartland 66 in Wuhan; IFS in Changsha; Galaxy in Macau, and Thailand Siam Paragon in Bangkok.
Several of Balenciaga’s signature architectural elements — logo-shaved carpet, velvet stage curtains and weathered metal — are reimagined for the introduction. Carpets and curtains are etched

While many heritage fashion brands cemented their position in the color world early on in their history — think Tiffany blue, Hermès orange and Christian Louboutin red — Bottega Veneta’s signature bright green hue, referred to as “Bottega Green,” is a new development courtesy of now-departing creative director, Daniel Lee.
Lee, who revealed on Wednesday he is stepping down from his role in a surprise announcement, is credited with infusing a fresh dose of modernity and youthfulness into Bottega Veneta during his three-year tenure. The fashion designer has introduced a lengthy list of memorable styles into the brand, including several “It” bags and highly coveted shoes.
“Bottega Green” is another of Lee’s most memorable style contributions from during his time at the heritage design house, and one of his newer introductions.
The designer introduced the hue during Bottega Veneta’s spring 2021 ready-to-wear collection presented in December to a socially distant crowd in a venue that was lit in the “Bottega Green” color. The first look in the collection was also a monochromatic “Bottega Green” outfit consisting of a tweed skirt suit and matching mules. Lee also presented a similar “Bottega Green” fitted tweed jacket with matching slides and handbag.

Congratulations are in order for Christopher John Rogers, who received the coveted American Womenswear Designer of the Year at the 2021 CFDA Fashion Awards on Wednesday.
He beat out Catherine Holstein for Khaite, Gabriela Hearst, Marc Jacobs and Peter Do in the category.
Though the designer has only released a handful of collections since he debuted his label in 2016, Rogers has made serious strides in the fashion world, with his eye-catching patterns and brightly hued designs seen on the likes of Michelle Obama, Rihanna, Zendaya, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga and Vice President Kamala Harris.
This year, the designer started off strong when Harris stepped out in a now-iconic purple coat and dress from his label for the presidential inauguration of Joe Biden in January. His streak of dressing household celebrity names continued since, with his pieces seen on Miley Cyrus, Tracee Ellis Ross, Regina King and Michaela Coel, among others.
His clothing even had a dedicated segment during an episode of the much-anticipated “Gossip Girl” reboot on HBO Max when Julien Calloway, played by Jordan Alexander, concludes his fashion show.
Rogers, who was born in Baton Rouge, La., and is a graduate of the Savannah College of Art and Design, was the 2019 winner of

Diff Charitable Eyewear is teaming with Warner Bros. Consumer Products for its latest collaboration.
The eyewear brand is releasing a “Harry Potter” collection on Friday, which takes inspiration from the iconic franchise. The collection includes five eyewear styles, four inspired by Hogwarts houses and one inspired by the titular character. The styles come in sunglasses and blue light glasses.
“The magical capsule collection will make you feel like you just stepped off the Hogwarts Express and into the wizarding world,” reads a statement from the brand.
Each eyewear style is designed with subtle nods to the “Harry Potter” franchise, such as the Hogwarts house name and crest etched onto the frames.

The Gryffindor style, for example, is designed in a brown tortoise shell frame and features arms designed to resemble a wand. The Harry Potter-inspired style gives a nod to the character’s own round glasses. The style is designed with a thin black frame and features a subtle lightning bolt design, paying homage to the character’s famous scar.
“We’re so excited to release this collaboration, based on one of the most iconic book and film series of all time,” said Diff founder Zach Gordan in a

Pharrell Williams is expanding his Humanrace skin care brand to a new category.
The Grammy-winning musician’s brand announced on Friday that it is entering the body care category with two body bars, the Reenergizing Whiteclay Body Bar and the Energy Channeling Charcoal Body Bar, which are both made from a soap-free formulation.
“We’ve spent the last year educating people how to take care of their skin and adhere to a routine, but we believe that the routine doesn’t stop with your face,” Williams said in a statement. “You need to care for your body, too. Your body deserves its own time.”
Both products are made with ingredients like snow mushroom extract, kaolin clay and rice powder and follow the brand’s ethos of minimal, yet effective products. The Reenergizing Whiteclay Body Bar is said to cleanse and hydrate the skin and the Energy Channeling Charcoal Body Bar is meant to smooth and refine the skin. The body bars launch alongside the Humanrace Ceramic Body Bar Dish, which is handcrafted in Arita, Japan. Like the brand’s other products, the body bars are packaged in eco-friendly materials.
