We cannot believe we are already in July!? Although, here we are. Our advice today is to enjoy your morning brew, sit back and catch up on all of the model and fashion news you missed this week, along with catching up on all things MalenDyer.
Then, go out and enjoy the sunshine!
Models
Kate Moss
Is collaborating with Adidas on the re-issue of its Gazelle, along with digital artist Doug Abraham.
“Like the Gazelle, Kate Moss is just as relevant in 2016 as she was back in the 1990s, which is why the image works so well,” commented Gary Aspden, Adidas brand consultant and curator, to the Business of Fashion. “Kate told me earlier this year that when it comes to trainers she has always been an ‘Adidas girl,’ so there was an affinity and an existing synergy there.”

Rapha
Has released a new collection of women’s bras. The British cycling brand’s designer, Maria Olsson, had this to share about the two new additions to the women’s offering.
“My task was to create a cycling-specific bra that had as few seams as possible but which gave enough support and sufficient compression across the chest to feel secure. We worked hard to understand what women wanted from a sports bra and then used this to lead our design and development.”
“Through talking to women riders, we recognized from the outset that we needed two bras to cater for different kinds of rides and different body shapes; women riding and training at high intensities want something different to riders on longer adventures and on gentle spins. The Medium Support Bra needed to be fast, sleek and barely there for faster sessions and the Light Support Bra had to focus on comfort and stretch for longer rides.”

Audrey Hepburn
Written letters, from 1951 and 1960, went up for auction on Wednesday at Bonhams in London. They were all written to actor Sir Felix Aylmer and were expected to fetch $4,000 to $5,300. Here’s an excerpt from one of her letters, which was from 1951.
“Would you believe it. I’m in Monte Carlo working on a French picture. The place is heavenly and this is the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”
At 22, Audrey was filming one of her first movies, “Monte Carlo Baby.”

The Hamptons
Bridgehampton
Has a listing that we want! Created by joining two farmhouses, this property has the cottage vibe we are drawn to. Yet, at 3000 square feet, it also has plenty of room. There are six bedrooms and six baths, along with a two car garage. Although, it’s the property’s two story stone pool house with its pool that has beach entry that really calls our name. The asking price is just shy of $3 million.
