While in London, British actress Golda Rosheuvel stepped out in a red and white striped button-down dress designed by Jasper Conran London on her way to day two of the Wimbledon Tennis Tournament. The look was quite classic, with minimal accessories. In hand, she held a quilted black leather bag and paired white slightly square-toed heels with  her outfit. The dress also featured a tie detail in the middle to accentuate her waist and break up the pattern a bit.

Shawn Stussy’s Returns To His Namesake Brand 

Stussy’s founder, Shawn Stussy, revealed that he is coming out of retirement. On his Instagram, he posted an image of himself with a line that reads, “Retirement is nice, but it’s time to engage for a long ride into the future.” The designer left his eponymous label in 1996 and sold shares to his friend Frank Sinatra Jr., according to Hypebeast. In another portion of the caption, before he edited it with an update, there was a line about working on new projects.

Chanel Announces Its Next Runway Location 

Chanel has announced its Métiers d’Art runway show will take place in Hangzhou, China. Although creative director Virginie Viard has recently left the fashion house, the brand is moving ahead with the collection’s runway show. As the search for Viard’s replacement continues, the location announcement is seen as a positive sign.  “It’s an exceptional destination in China and it’s very inspiring for the Métiers d’Art collection. It’s the real landscape that inspired the screens that are in the apartment,” said President of Chanel SAS, Bruno Pavlovsky to WWD.
