Kering's new CEO, Luca de Meo, laid out a sprawling plan to turn the company around. After several years of slow but notable sales declines, particularly at its crown jewel, Gucci, Kering needs a new strategy.

On the Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi and international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska discuss what was wrong with Kering's previous strategy, what de Meo's new plan entails, and how likely it is to succeed.

Wearable tech is having a moment.

Partly based on early reads about the success of Meta's Ray-Ban glasses, Meta just signed a 10-year lease for a physical store in Manhattan that will sell them. Meanwhile, Apple is set to launch its own competitor smart glasses soon, while Google is teaming up with Warby Parker on a similar product.

But wearable tech, especially targeted toward a mainstream or fashion audience, has been hard to crack. For every successful product like the Meta Ray-Bans, there have been expensive flops like Google Glass and Apple's Vision Pro. For the Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi, international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska and editor-in-chief Jill Manoff were joined by wearable tech expert Janey Park to discuss why some products take off and others fail.

We broke it down into five rules for a successful wearable tech launch.

The conversation comes at a moment of heightened geopolitical instability. Roughly a month into a rapidly evolving regional conflict, brands are navigating disrupted tourism, declining retail foot traffic and rising macroeconomic pressure tied to energy costs and supply chains. Meanwhile, the luxury sector was already facing a broader slowdown.

On this week’s tariffs-focused edition of the Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi is joined by Angela Santos, partner at the law firm ArentFox Schiff, for a legal perspective on tariff refunds, shifting trade policy and fashion brands' best next steps.

The conversation comes at a volatile moment for global trade. Following the Supreme Court’s February 2026 ruling against tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), brands initially expected relief. Instead, they’re facing a new wave of tariffs under alternative legal authorities, alongside ongoing litigation and an unclear path to refunds.
