Here’s How to See Lizzo, Naomi Campbell, and More at Vogue’s Forces of Fashion Summit Next Week

The virtual event will take place on November 16 and 17….

On November 16 and 17, Vogue will host its first-ever virtual Forces of Fashion summit. This year’s event will include conversations surrounding the future of fashion, sustainability, equity and inclusion, and other important topics. Some of the panel participants include Lizzo, Naomi Campbell, Sienna Miller, Afua Hirsch, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Cynthia Erivo. Bella Hadid, Virgil Abloh, Victoria Beckham, and Jeremy Scott will be participating as well, among many others.

In addition to those conversations, stylist and Vogue contributing editor Gabriella Karefa-Johnson will lead a discussion, titled “Whose Positivity,” with the models Paloma Elsesser, Precious Lee, Jill Kortleve, and Tess McMillan, that will center around their experiences in the industry and the very real work that still needs to be done around size inclusivity within the world of fashion. 

Also on the agenda: the premiere of Gucci’s “Ouverture of Something that Never Ended,” a miniseries directed by Gus Van Sant and Alessandro Michele, followed by an exclusive interview with the directors.

The two-day virtual event will include opening remarks from Vogue editor in chief Anna Wintour, live Q&As with Vogue editors, networking sessions, and drop-ins from surprise guests, as well as a morning wellness session and happy hour on the second day. In addition, VIP ticket holders will hear from The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Andrew Bolton and Nicolas Ghesquière, artistic director of Louis Vuitton women’s collections, about the Costume Institute’s recently opened exhibition, “About Time: Fashion and Duration,” and track fashion’s shifting relationships with the past, the present, and the future.

The summit will take place on November 16 and 17 from 9 AM EST to 3 PM EST. Tickets are still available for the summit and are priced at $125. All ticket holders can tune in to watch the live discussions, as well as participate in the Q&A and networking sessions. Also included with the purchase of an all-access ticket is the ability to stream all of the Forces of Fashion panel videos on demand, a service that will be available through December 8, 2020. 

More details and tickets for the event are available on the Forces of Fashion website.

A$AP Rocky Turned An Entire Manchester City Kit Into His Album Rollout

A$AP Rocky doesn’t do album rollouts quietly, and this one recruited an entire Premier League club to help. Manchester City, PUMA, and Rocky teamed up on a limited apparel run tied to “Don’t Be Dumb,” his 2026 album, timed around his September 5th show at Co-op Live.

The centerpiece is a long-sleeve PUMA King jersey in black and archive gold, with “DON’T BE DUMB” running down the sleeve and AWGE branding worked in throughout. A bold “MANCHESTER” graphic covers the back. Fans could also add limited “A$AP 11” name-and-number printing onto the club’s actual Home, Away, or Third kits, while supplies lasted at retail.

There’s a players-only version too, and it never went up for sale. That one sticks closer to City’s usual sky-blue identity, with its own sleeve detailing and back graphic — the kind of piece that exists purely because a handful of people got lucky.

The whole rollout kicked off with a one-night pop-up on September 4th, when PUMA turned a spot in Manchester’s Northern Quarter into a pop-up cafe for the night, mixing football, music, and street style into one room before the wider release hit the stadium store the next morning. Some of those jerseys even came with golden tickets to the concert or that Saturday’s match.

Rocky has called the project true to his own design language, and it’s not even his only club collaboration this cycle — a similar drop with AC Milan landed around the same time. At this point, the line between fashion week and matchday has basically disappeared.

Quavo And Lids Are Going All In On Atlanta With Their New Cap Pack

Quavo has never been shy about his hat obsession, and Lids just gave him another outlet for it. Their new “Atlanta” pack drops September 12th, marking another round in a partnership that’s been running strong since 2019.

The collection is a love letter to the city, spread across three very different caps. One mashes up pinstripes, script lettering, and Braves branding into a single design, working navy, red, white, and light blue into the mix. Another goes the opposite direction entirely — fully iced out in crystal detailing, done up in black and red, with both the Falcons and the Braves showing up in the design. The third strips things back to an old-school “ATL” trucker cap in red, white, and gold, the kind of understated piece that lets the city’s name do the talking.

None of this is new territory for Quavo. He’s talked before about waiting on hat releases as a kid, and that same excitement seems to be what’s kept this partnership going years past most celebrity collabs. His earlier Lids run leaned on one moment — the Braves’ 1995 World Series win — but this pack pulls from the city’s whole sports history instead of just one highlight.

Lids has called Quavo one of the rare voices who can blend music, fashion, and sports without it feeling forced, and this drop backs that up. Given how fast his past releases have moved, Atlanta might want to set an alarm for September 12th.
