Business of Fashion and McKinsey release 2024 State of Fashion report
Business of Fashion and McKinsey & Company released the eighth annual State of Fashion report on Wednesday, which reveals an industry navigating deep uncertainty. The report finds that the fashion industry is predicted to achieve year-on-year retail sales growth between 2% and 4% in the upcoming year. Europe and the U.S. experienced particularly slow growth throughout 2023, and the growing climate crisis is becoming more prominent within the industry. “Inaction is no longer an option: extreme climate events are already placing the lives and livelihoods of fashion workers in danger and could put at risk an estimated $65 billion of apparel exports by 2030,” per the report. It also examines issues around supply chains, fast-fashion competition, the changing marketing landscape and the future of generative AI’s role in fashion. Read the full report here. {Business of Fashion/paywalled}

Jezebel to be resurrected by Paste Magazine
Jezebel is set to return less than a month after G/O Media announced that the site would be shutting down on Nov. 9. Paste Magazine acquired Jezebel on Tuesday, and Paste’s Editor-in-Chief Josh Jackson told The New York Times publishing could resume on the site as soon as Wednesday. Jezebel was first introduced in 2007 and covered feminist issues under its tagline, “Sex. Celebrity. Politics. With Teeth.” Jackson did not comment on how much his company paid for Jezebel and political news website Splinter, although he said it was an all-cash deal. “I think of it as the quintessential site for millennial women who grew up on this, and it’s a site that taught them what they could be,” Jackson told The New York Times. “And I want the same for Gen Z, and to bring in Gen Z voices.” {The New York Times}
