WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., June 1, 2022

Iconic, Sport-Inspired Brand Celebrates Summer with Vibrant Prints and Neon Accents.

U.S. Polo Assn., the official brand of the United States Polo Association (USPA), has launched its iconic, sport-inspired Summer Collection for 2022. The brand’s global photo shoot, which is shared with U.S. Polo Assn. partners around the world, took place in South Florida’s iconic Miami Beach. Visitors flock from around the world to bask in the tropical Miami Beach atmosphere, where the sun meets sand and sea.

Sun, sand, and saltwater along the shores of trendy Miami Beach create the perfect backdrop for U.S. Polo Assn.’s Summer 2022 Collection. This season’s global photo shoot showcases beachside models lounging beside breezy palms and vibrant lifeguard towers, wearing pops of neon and bold tropical prints. The collection also brings colorful polo shirts, shorts, and graphic t-shirts alongside swimwear and essential summer accessories, including bucket hats and trendy handbags.

Consumers in-store and online around the world can look for color blocked brights and timeless resort stripes inspired by the sunlit Miami horizon. U.S. Polo Assn. has given summer style a refresh with an emphasis on breathable, lightweight fabrics to make fun in the sun easy and breezy. Fans of the brand can bask in soft knit tank dresses and preppy cotton shirts to make the most of a sun-kissed summer with U.S. Polo Assn.

“The inspiration for our Summer 2022 Collection comes from the bold color palette of the sunset and sea. Rich colors bring rejuvenating energy to our classic style that’s in step with today’s current trends,” says Brian Kaminer, SVP of Brand and Product Development for the U.S. Polo Assn. brand. “Innovating new fabrics with textural details make our timeless trends fresh for customers to approach the summer in style.”

U.S. Polo Assn. is known for its sport-inspired, classic American style. The brand’s signature red, white, and blue stripe is used in a variety of ways to add an element of surprise to each garment. Each U.S. Polo Assn. collection takes classic designs to a new level with unique styling, high-quality fabrics, and seasonal comfort. The Summer 2022 Collection follows suit with bold and fresh assortments that offer a wide array of options, including USPA Life apparel with sustainable aspects.

Michael Prince, President and CEO of USPA Global Licensing, which manages the global, multi-billion-dollar U.S. Polo Assn. brand. “Every season the U.S. Polo Assn.

The future of skincare and makeup in one device from Opte

I absolutely love to try everything new when it comes to skincare products but it’s always hard to find something that would be affordable and also a great fit for any skin type.  I hate looking in the mirror and counting sun spots and redness all over my face. It was a nightmare until one day I discovered Opté Precision Skincare System, a perfect Christmas gift for everyone.

Opté Precision Skincare System combines camera optics, proprietary algorithms, printing technology and skincare in one device that scans the skin, detects hyperpigmentation and applies corrective serum with precision application to reveal the natural beauty of skin. 

Opté covers age and sun spots, redness and discoloration, blemishes, scars and spider veins. Active ingredients also reduce the appearance of melanin-related spots, like age spots and sun spots, over time.

Spot lightening creams lighten not only your spot but also the surrounding skin. Opté targets and treats only the spots. Laser treatments by a doctor may involve cost, pain, and downtime. Opté is not a laser and is completely pain-free and gentle on your skin.

Foundation covers 100% of your skin with a heavy, unnatural looking exterior. Opté applies 99% less product to your skin, camouflaging only the spots while leaving your radiant, natural skin to shine through.

It treats:

MINERAL PIGMENTS
A mixture of white, yellow, and red pigment dispersions created with iron oxides and titanium dioxide that camouflage hyperpigmentation on contact.

NIACINAMIDE
A form of Vitamin B3 and a potent skincare active that helps to fade the appearance of spots over time.

PROPYLENE GLYCOL
A skin conditioning agent and humectant, which is a class of ingredients that help skin retain moisture.

SODIUM HYDROXIDE
An inorganic compound that pH balances the optimizing serum to your skin.

ACRYLATES COPOLYMER
A polymer stabilizer that maintains the structure and stability of the optimizing serum.

CAPRYLYL GLYCOL AND 1,2-HEXANEDIOL

New cutting-edge onboard entertainment system for Flying Spur and Bentayga

Bentley is introducing a new rear-seat entertainment system for both the Flying Spur and the Bentayga. Bentley Rear Entertainment offers the latest connected technology, combining a highly flexible system with class-leading Naim for Bentley audio already available in both models.

An ingenious ‘bring your own device’ concept allows customers to effortlessly stream content from their own smartphone, computer or tablet directly to the Bentley Rear Entertainment system with the minimum of effort – and without the need to connect by cable.

The exceptionally immersive entertainment experience incorporates two, high-definition 10.1” screens attached to the back of the front seats. The tablets are also removable and use crystal clear graphics with resolution of up to 1920 x 1080 pixels offering perfect visuals on the move.

Sound from the Bentley Rear Entertainment system can be streamed via Bluetooth to either headphones supplied with the car or customers’ personal headphones. Alternatively, sound can be streamed directly to the Flying Spur or Bentayga’s existing and class-leading Naim audio system, which in the Flying Spur features an industry-leading 2,200 Watts of power. Over-The-Air (OTA) software updates ensure customers are future-proofed with the very latest in technology advances. 

Ivo Muth, Director of Electrical/Electronics, at Bentley Motors, comments:

“The new Bentley Rear Entertainment system blends ease of use with exquisite design and functionality. It allows rear-seat passengers access to an ever-expanding world of entertainment via an exceptionally immersive system – one that represents the very latest in in-car technology. The system delivers digital entertainment services like media and streaming content from nearly all service providers worldwide and turns your car into your own exclusive cinema on the move.

“Bentley’s new ‘bring your own device’ concept works seamlessly with a passenger’s own device, offering the benefits of a high-resolution, 10.1” screen and incredible sound quality. Bentley Rear Entertainment is another example of Bentley helping customers to create their own extraordinary journeys.”

Integrated Technology For Work or Relaxation

Bentley’s expertise in luxury and innovation has combined to create the new rear seat entertainment system. The rear cabins of Bentayga and Flying Spur models are already the ultimate place to work or relax on the move – now  further enhanced with state-of-the-art sound and vision.

Rear seat passengers input content from their mobile device using a variety of methods. Content can be seamlessly cast from both iOS and Android media apps, to either of the Bentley Rear Entertainment screens.

Provided both the device and Bentley Rear Entertainment are configured to the same Wi-Fi network, passengers can then interact with their chosen app e.g. Amazon Prime, Disney+, Youku or Apple TV, content can be viewed on the Bentley system’s touchscreens. 

Mirroring from the customer’s device is also now possible with the Bentley Rear Entertainment screens. This useful function mirrors an exact copy of a mobile device screen, including pop-ups, notifications and screen rotation onto the 10.1” screen.

Netflix, the popular entertainment streaming service that offers thousands of film and television programmes, comes pre-installed with Bentley Rear Entertainment. It can therefore be watched without the need to stream from a customer’s device.

Both removable touchscreens are equipped with an HDMI port, which allows the use of media devices such as an Amazon Firestick, or a games console. The latest USB Type C port offers a convenient charging point for customer mobile devices, as well as back-up for software updates. A headphone jack is also provided, as an alternative to Bluetooth connectivity.

The high-resolution screens are touch sensitive, so functions such as volume, brightness, source selection and a handy user guide are easy to operate with the tap of a finger. 

Both Bentley Rear Entertainment screens are connected to the rear of the front passenger seats using a bespoke arm mount, which also connects power to the system. The screens and arms can be removed if desired.

The rear of the screen houses a discreet microphone, which monitors audio coming from the Bentayga or Flying Spur’s Naim audio system and ensures this is always synchronized with the media played on the Bentley Rear Entertainment system.

Inaugural Idaho Fashion Week Draws Fashion-Loving Crowds to Boise’s Jackson Jet Center

0

More Than 200 Boise Locals Attended Weekend’s Events, Featuring Famous Designers, Models, and Production Talent.

On Saturday, June 18th, members of the Los Angeles and New York fashion industry descended on Boise for the first annual Idaho Fashion Week. Hosted at the Jackson Jet Center, IDFW featured designers from around the country, including Project Runway winner Kentaro Kameyama, Mister Triple X, Jose Gonzalez, and Boise local Rooney Mae Couture. The show was sponsored by many local businesses, as well as national powerhouses such as Macy’s and Avelo Airlines. More than 200 people attended the shows, with front row seats filled by Boise influencers, business owners, and industry insiders.

When asked “Why bring an event like this to Boise”, Idaho Fashion Week Executive Producer Amanda Rouse said, “My goal was to connect people. When I started modeling in Idaho nine years ago, I didn’t have many opportunities to collaborate with industry leaders outside of Boise, let alone the state. She continued, “My goal in creating IDFWU was to provide a space for local Idaho artists to have a real platform to showcase their work, and ultimately for artists and creatives of all kinds to make connections and learn from industry experts from around the world”. In addition to a runway show, Idaho Fashion Week also included a day of master classes and expert panels at the Grove Hotel. Attendees could receive hands-on training from renowned makeup artist Carlos Gonzalez, ask questions of published models such as Will Moncada (also known for his appearance on the series Love Island), and hear details of the design process from Kentaro Kameyama.

Another crucial aspect of Rouse’s vision for connecting Boise to the greater fashion community was philanthropy. A portion of the weekend’s ticket sales and revenue went to the local Boise chapter of Dress For Success, a nonprofit organization which provides clothing, training and career counseling for underserved women throughout the world. It was imperative to the IDFW production team that the event leave behind a positive footprint on the community, both in terms of an opportunity to experience beautiful fashion, but also as a means to give back to those in need.

Can we expect Idaho Fashion Week to be an annual Boise tradition? To this, Rouse said, “We are already moving forward with plans for next season, and I can’t wait to highlight more of what Idaho has to offer to the fashion industry!”

BACARDÍ, Boi-1da and NAHMIAS Launch Music Merch for the Tech Generation to Amplify Rising Artists with New Wearable Album Capsule Collection

World’s Most Awarded Rum Brand Announces Next Iteration of its Artist-Elevating Music Liberates Music Program – the First QR-Powered Fashion Collection That Rewards Fans with Concert Cash
for Promoting Rising Music Artists

HAMILTON, Bermuda, June 23, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Today, BACARDÍ Rum is proud to debut the latest evolution ofMusic Liberates Music, an ongoing program designed to champion underrepresented voices in the music industry. Every summer, a new song is released every second of every day, making it difficult for up-and-coming music artists to break through. The fourth iteration of the program seeks to combat that statistic by enlisting high-end streetwear brand, NAHMIAS, along with GRAMMY-winning producer and longtime collaborator, Boi-1da, to drop an innovative, new kind of music distribution model. The first-of-its-kind capsule collection from NAHMIAS features embedded QR codes integrated into each garment, which directs phone-wielding fashion lovers to an album of rising global musical talent when they go to snap a photo. As an added incentive to wear the collection and promote the rising artists, fans will also earn live music rewards every time someone scans their hat, tee, hoodie, or jacket and listens to the rising artists. So, the more fans promote the music, the more concert tickets they could earn.

Now available for pre-order exclusively at NAHMIAS.com/MLM, the four-piece, gender-neutral capsule collection made its global runway debut today at NAHMIAS’s Spring/Summer 2023 show at Paris Men’s Fashion Week, where the runway-ready looks, along with a “codes out, phones out” policy, gave attendees a chance to scan the tech-chic getups during the show. Like all NAHMIAS apparel, founder and fashion designer, Doni Nahmias, designed the innovative collection featuring his signature swagger, characterized by a high-grade, yet informal mix of sport and West Coast influences. From hats, tees and hoodies, to sweatshirts and jackets, each capsule piece dons a signature NAHMIAS fit with a BACARDÍ-inspired, Caribbean flair, plus QR codes harmoniously integrated into the ready-to-wear designs.

“It has been a pleasure collaborating with a heritage brand like BACARDÍ that is so dedicated to elevating others in the music industry, along with Boi-1da, a longtime friend of mine,” said NAHMIAS founder and fashion designer, Doni Nahmias. “As an up-and-comer in my own industry, I was thrilled to be part of the latest iteration of Music Liberates Music and had a lot of fun combining my signature aesthetic with the tropical vibes of BACARDÍ to bring this collection and QR tech component to life.”

Not only will the rising artists benefit from having their music streamed, but 100% of net profits of the sale of the collection will also directly benefit the roster of rising talent. This iteration of Music Liberates Music introduces a unique, fashion-forward disruptive distribution and revenue model that turns music fans into a walking promoter and wearable album for participating up-and-coming artists.

“I’ve been looking forward to this next iteration of Music Liberates Music and how we can bring more attention to rising artists that are the future of music in an unexpected way, with some help from my friend Doni and BACARDÍ,” said GRAMMY-winning producer, Boi-1da. “This next class of Music Liberates Music artists have raw talent and passion, which I’ve seen first-hand in helping them to produce new tracks exclusive to the NAHMIAS drop. As someone who has been in the business of music-making for a long time, I’m excited for them to not only grow as artists, but to get the exposure they deserve.”

With an ear for talent, passion and potential, Boi-1da played an integral role in sourcing the artists for the latest iteration of Music Liberates Music, and is working alongside each to co-produce brand new tracks that will be discoverable along with some of the artist’s existing catalog on Spotify come mid-July. Participating global artists in the program include Ric Wilson, hailing from Chicago, Illinois whose funk and disco-infused take on rap bellows with robust percussion and buoyant vocal flair. Additionally, Londoner and master of musical melding, BenjiFlow, who is an up-and-comer in the MC-driven realm of the UK’s music scene, and wields a rhythmic intermingling of R&B and West African-flavored pop with Brazilian samba and Afro-Cuban influence. And last but not least, Berlin-based singer, songwriter and composer, K.ZIA, whose fusion of R&B, Soul and Pop genres exude groovy Afro-urban riffs and harmonic vocals that whisk listeners into her universe, to round out the next class of Music Liberates Music rising artists.

“This is the fourth time we’re bringing Music Liberates Music back to the fans, but this time, we’re expanding on a global scale with the most innovative iteration of the program yet,” said Laila Mignoni, Global Head of Brand Marketing Communications for BACARDÍ. “Not only does this year’s program help rising artists expand the scope of their fanbase, but it marks a first for BACARDÍ in collaborating with a talented fashion designer like Doni Nahmias to help spread the artist’s work via a wearable album. We are thrilled to have Boi-1da back on board for the second time and can’t wait for you to hear the new tracks from the talent we’re supporting.”

By harnessing the iconic Latin Caribbean heritage of BACARDĺ, the ear for musical talent of Boi-1da, and elevated fashion eye of NAHMIAS, the fourth iteration of Music Liberates Music has the power to revolutionize how people discover and stream new music, and become fans, one garment at a time. To snag merchandise from the BACARDĺ x BOI-1DA x NAHMIAS Wearable Album Collection before it’s gone, head to NAHMIAS.com/MLM to pre-order.

In 1862, in the city of Santiago de Cuba, founder Don Facundo Bacardí Massó revolutionized the spirits industry when he created a light-bodied rum with a particularly smooth taste – BACARDÍ. The unique taste of BACARDÍ rum inspired cocktail pioneers to invent some of the world’s most famous recipes including the BACARDÍ Mojito, the BACARDÍ Daiquiri, the BACARDÍ Cuba Libre, the BACARDÍ Piña Colada and the BACARDÍ El Presidente. BACARDÍ rum is the world’s most awarded spirit, with more than 1000 awards for quality, taste and innovation. Today, BACARDÍ rum is made mainly in Puerto Rico where it is crafted to ensure the taste remains the same today as it did when it was first blended in 1862.www.BACARDÍ.com

The BACARDÍ brand is part of the portfolio of Bacardi Limited, headquartered in Hamilton, Bermuda. Bacardi Limited refers to the Bacardi group of companies, including Bacardi International Limited.

Raised in the small Californian coastal town of Summerland, located just outside of Santa Barbara, Doni Nahmias is a self-taught designer that founded NAHMIAS in 2018. Following the eponymous label’s debut of 12-piece DIY collection, NAHMIAS has forged a signature aesthetic: a high-grade yet informal mix of skate, basketball, surf, and hip-hop codes melded into an ascendant ready-to-wear label to now be a comprehensive RTW menswear brand with a global appeal.
