Converse Essentials for men, which will launch simultaneously, is set to mirror the women's offering, with six core items offered in five colors — with a unisex collaboration called “Converse x Fragments” with streetwear designer Hiroshi Fujiwara dropping in limited edition for the launch.

Rihanna's debut Fenty x Puma show was one of the hottest tickets at last season's New York Fashion Week, but the star is shunning the catwalk for the Spring/Summer 2017 season. The singer and designer will instead opt to unveil her new collection via a series of pop-up stores in New York a few days before fashion week hits the city, WWD reports. Upmarket department store Bergdorf Goodman's pop-up will be selling clothes from the new collection, but shoppers looking to get their hands on RiRi's famous shoe designs will have to head to Six:02.
