US brand NikeSKIMS unveils Drop 2 with new styles & accessories
Spanning seven collections; 65 silhouettes; and new accessories such as socks, waist packs and training gloves, the launch builds on NikeSKIMS’ debut drop with new materials, seasonal colorways and styling versatility. The NikeSKIMS system of dress continues to evolve, empowering women to create looks that reflect both their movement needs and personal style, all without compromise.
NikeSKIMS Drop 2 debuts for the new season, expanding its performance-meets-style system with 65 silhouettes and accessories.
The collection introduces new Woven Nylon layers and seasonal colourways across Shine, Matte and Airy ranges.
Its holiday campaign features top speed skaters, celebrating women’s strength, movement and modern femininity.
Core NikeSKIMS material collections — Shine, Matte and Airy — return with new silhouettes and colorways. Shine introduces bold, high-contrast panels in the new Shine Colorblock capsule; Matte continues to offer compression and smoothing with Nike Dri-FIT technology; and Airy delivers breathable, mesh-inspired pieces in both fitted and oversize styles for effortless layering.
Timed for colder weather, the new drop also introduces Woven Nylon: a new category of relaxed third layers, led by the Wrap Coat, that are designed for softness, function and movement. Returning favorites like Weightless Layers, Matte Tricot and Vintage Seamless continue to sculpt and flatter. For the first time, NikeSKIMS expands into accessories and socks, completing the head-to-toe wardrobe system.
The newest designs come to life in a holiday campaign that celebrates women as a collective, spotlighting world-class speed skaters Maame Biney, Kamryn Lute, Kristen Santos-Griswold and Courtney Sarault on a NikeSKIMS branded rink. Featured for their power, precision and grace, these athletes embody the strength of femininity and the edge of sport.
“I want to feel deeply connected to my body and its abilities. I love feeling each burning muscle and every strained breath when I skate — it’s a representation of my effort, determination and resilience,” says Kamryn, who competes at the World Championship level. “Coming into and embracing your own strength, physically and mentally, as a woman is one of the most powerful representations of modern femininity I can think of.”
Captured in striking still photography by Daniel Shea and motion by Madison McKamey, the campaign celebrates movement in all forms, highlighting speed skating and channeling the energy of Milan this winter. Further, a lookbook shot by Hugh Wilson showcases the NikeSKIMS system of dress — a distinct new aesthetic where sport and style are inseparable.

Luxury retailer Saks Global is planning to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy as soon as Sunday, Bloomberg News reported on Friday, citing people familiar with the matter.

The company is also in advanced discussions on about $1.25 billion debtor-in-possession financing package with creditors, which would allow it to keep its business running during bankruptcy and pay vendor dues, the report added.

Pandora eyes 6% organic growth in 2025 as weak US market mutes prior guidance
Published
January 9, 2026
Pandora expects to deliver 6% organic growth in 2025, the Danish jewellery brand announced on Friday in its preliminary and unaudited results for 2025, falling below previous guidance of 7% to 8%.
“We delivered 6% organic growth in 2025 despite softer than expected Q4 holiday trading, particularly in North America,” said Pandora’s CEO Berta de Pablos-Barbier, the brand announced on its website on January 9. “While the year was marked by macro headwinds, it has also highlighted opportunities to sharpen execution and strengthen brand desirability.”
Pandora is eyeing a full-year operating profit of approximately 7.8 billion Danish crowns ($1.2 billion) along with an EBIT margin of around 24%, in line with its previous guidance. The North American market reported 2% like for like growth in the fourth quarter of 2025 with trading in November and December below expectations due to weakened consumer sentiment causing muted in-store traffic. Although EMEA like for like growth came in at -1% and Italy lagged, Spain, Poland, and Portugal reported strong growth, according to the business.
“As new CEO, my focus will be to navigate the current market environment, reduce our commodity exposure and course-correct in select areas to accelerate profitable growth,” said de Pablos-Barbier. “Pandora continues to pursue significant untapped growth opportunities as a full jewellery brand. Our fundamentals are strong. We are building a bigger Pandora.”
The business will announce its audited full-year 2025 results on February 5. Pandora plans to launch designs in new materials this calendar year, aiming to use high silver prices as fuel for innovation, according to de Pablos-Barbier.
