FROW News #117: Pamela and Her Boys, Rhode’s Most Wanted Drop & Brows That Do Good 💄🌊👜
Rhode’s most anticipated drop lands next week, and you need to be ready. Jacquemus shot the campaign that has had the internet in a grip. Benefit is turning brow appointments into something that actually means something this month. And somewhere between Poppy Delevingne’s summer eveningwear, a Casablanca and Ladurée fever dream and the Women’s Prize for Fiction crowning its 2026 winner, this week reminded us why we do this. Keep Scrolling.
The Jacquemus campaign everyone is still talking about 🌼
Jacquemus dropped A Day With Pamela and Her Sons, and the conversation around it has not slowed down since. Pamela Anderson, Brandon Thomas Lee and Dylan Jagger Lee, shot throughout an ordinary day in a way that feels genuinely private: rushing to get ready for a ceremony, fighting over the radio in the car, sharing coffee in the morning chaos, laughing in bed. It does not feel like a campaign. It feels like something you were not supposed to see, and that is entirely the point. Key pieces from the Le Paysan collection and the SS26 Plage line run throughout, with white poplin silhouettes and new iterations of the Le Valérie bag in terracotta and light green suede. If you have been sleeping on the Le Valérie, this is the campaign that changes that. Available at jacquemus.com and in the New Bond Street boutique, where personalisation is also offered.
Poppy Delevingne’s Nobody’s Child collection is built for every summer plan worth showing up for 🌙
A New Evening is Nobody’s Child and Poppy Delevingne’s second collaboration, and it is sharper and more confident than their first. The limited-edition collection was designed around a very specific feeling: the one you get when you are getting dressed for something that might turn into a night you remember for years. Light-catching textures, modern florals, polka dots and soft silhouettes that move from golden hour through to a dance floor without asking anything of you. Poppy has named every piece after someone close to her, which gives the collection a warmth that comes through in the wearing. Each item carries a Digital Product Passport documenting the full supply chain, because Nobody’s Child has always taken that seriously. Sizes 4 to 18, from £59 to £200 at nobodyschild.com.
Monsoon and Callie Thorpe just designed the beachwear edit your summer holiday has been waiting for 🌊
Callie Thorpe has spent years championing inclusivity. She's a travel writer and creator thinking carefully about how clothes make women feel, and every decision in this 15-piece swim and beachwear capsule for Monsoon reflects that. Launched this week, the collection draws on her love of travel and the colours and textures of places the world does beautifully. It works as a proper mix-and-match wardrobe: packable, functional and designed to create multiple looks from fewer pieces, with every silhouette signed off only after multiple fittings. Swimwear that was built around women's bodies and trips rather than a mood board. Sizes 8 to 24 at monsoon.co.uk and in selected stores now.
Casablanca and Ladurée is the collaboration nobody asked for, and everyone wants a piece of 🍰
It should not work. A luxury Paris pâtisserie and a Casablanca silk shirt do not obviously belong in the same sentence, let alone the same campaign. And yet the Casablanca and Ladurée collaboration that launched on the 3rd June is one of the most covetable things to drop this month. The ready-to-wear capsule spans silk shirts, crochet totes and embroidered hoodies, alongside a pastry collection that includes a pomelo and mint macaron created for the partnership. A dreamlike French château illustration connects every piece of clothing and every box of patisserie with the kind of visual logic that makes you want all of it at once. Limited run, available until the 1st September at Casablanca stores, select stockists and laduree.com.

Elizabeth Scarlett marks World Ocean Day with a collection that earns the right to talk about conservation 🐢
A lot of brands talk about sustainability. Elizabeth Scarlett has donated over £220,000 to Blue Marine Foundation since 2021, funded the protection of 13,000 green turtle nesting attempts on Ascension Island in a single season, supported Dutch Caribbean habitat conservation and contributed to African penguin protection in South Africa. When the brand releases a collection in honour of World Ocean Day on the 8th June, there is something real behind it. The Ocean Escapes collection is inspired by the beauty and resilience of the sea, priced from £18 to £85, and every purchase adds to that work through the brand’s 2% annual sales donation. Available at elizabethscarlett.com.
New Rare Beauty products hit the UK this week. Here is what to know 💄
New Rare Beauty products landed at Sephora on 4th June, and between them, they cover almost every step of a full face. The True To Myself Natural Matte Longwear Foundation (£35) is the one that has been generating the most noise: a self-priming, self-setting three-in-one base in 48 shades with up to eight hours wear and a blurred, poreless matte finish. Selena Gomez wore it on her wedding day to Benny Blanco, danced all night, and her makeup stayed perfect from the ceremony to the last song. If that is not a long-wear claim worth believing, nothing is. The Brow Harmony Tinted Flexible Lifting Gel (£19) is the coloured upgrade to the brand’s already beloved clear brow gel, arriving in six natural shades from Soft Blonde to Soft Black, with up to 12 hours of waterproof hold that is never stiff or crunchy. The Essential Neutrals Eyeshadow Palette (£29) brings together the kind of versatile everyday shades that earn their place on a dressing table and stay there. The Perfect Strokes Matte Liquid Liner (£20) completes the edit with precision and all-day wear. All four are vegan, cruelty-free and available at Sephora UK.
Every brow wax booked in June sends £5 to Refuge and Look Good Feel Better 🦋
Throughout June, every Benefit brow wax in the UK sends £5 to two organisations that do work that matters. Refuge operates the National Domestic Abuse Helpline and provides safe accommodation and support to women and children leaving abusive situations. Look Good Feel Better supports over 15,000 people a year through the physical and emotional challenges of cancer treatment. Since Benefit’s Bold Is Beautiful programme began in 2015, more than $26.6 million has been raised globally, with over £2 million going to women and children in the UK and Ireland. A brow appointment was already a good idea. This makes it a better one. Book at benefitcosmetics.com.
Seven years of development. The utan Tan Gummies are back ☀️
The original utan Tan Gummies built a serious following before they disappeared, and the reformulated version that relaunched at Superdrug on the 1st June has been seven years in development. The new Sun-Soaked Berry flavour combines the brand’s Tan and Vaycay formulas into one, using a buccal absorption technology that delivers nutrients through the cheek membrane rather than through the digestive system, which the brand claims offers up to five times the efficiency of standard supplements. The formula is 100% natural and completely beta-carotene-free, which means no orange tint. At £30 for 60 gummies at Superdrug and utan.co.uk.
£7.50 for an eye cream with these results. Yes, really 🌿
Aroma-Zone has been the natural skincare destination in France for decades, and when the brand opened its first UK store at Westfield back in November 2025, it brought a library of products that most British consumers had never had easy access to before. The Eye Contour Cream Théine and Hyaluronic Acid, which dropped at the end of May, is the kind of product that makes you do a double-take at the price tag. £7.50 for 15ml. Six natural actives, including theine, hyaluronic acid, wild ginger extract, helichrysum, liquorice plant extract and polysaccharides, all working on dark circles, puffiness, fine lines and drooping lids at once. The clinical results are not polite about it: 94% reduction in wrinkles and fine lines after 28 days, dark circles visibly reduced within two weeks, and under-eye bags reduced to half the size with consistent use. Cosmos Organic certified, made in France, and available at the Westfield store and aroma-zone.com. At £7.50, it is the easiest decision in your skincare routine.
Tuesday. Rhode Pocket Bronze. Set your alarm 🥛
Hailey Bieber first showed the Pocket Bronze on TikTok eighteen months ago, and the beauty world has been watching its every move since. The Rhode Summer Collection drops on the 9th June, and if the Pocket Blush sell-out is any kind of precedent, it will not be around for long. Pocket Bronze is a lightweight cream bronzer in eight shades, built with peptides and tamanu oil for buildable colour and a skin-smoothing finish that wears for at least eight hours. The Highlight Milk is Rhode’s first luminiser, a liquid formula in four shades that works from the face all the way down to the body. The Pocket Brush, a double-ended compact tool with vegan bristles and a recycled handle, completes the complexion trio. Limited edition Peptide Lip Tints in golden hour shades and a Colada-coloured Terry Bag and Towel complete the summer edit. Pocket Bronze £25, Highlight Milk £28, Pocket Brush £27. Set your alarm for Tuesday. rhodeskin.com.
The Women’s Prize for Fiction announces its 2026 winner on Thursday 📚
On the 11th June, the winners of the 2026 Women’s Prize for Fiction and the Women’s Prize for Non-Fiction are announced at a ceremony in Bedford Square Gardens, London. The Fiction shortlist has included Maggie O’Farrell and has been one of the strongest in recent years, which makes Thursday’s announcement something worth staying up for. The prize was founded in 1996 because the Booker Prize shortlist that year included no women at all, and in the thirty years since, it has produced a winner list that reads like a masterclass: Zadie Smith, Ali Smith, Madeline Miller, Andrea Levy, Maggie O’Farrell. Whoever is added to that list on Thursday joins serious company. If you have not started the shortlist yet, the weekend is right there.
House of Dreamers arrives in London on 26 June, and two million Europeans cannot be wrong 💤
House of Dreamers has drawn over two million visitors across Milan, Madrid, Rome and Paris, and the London edition opens on the 26th June at Immerse LDN, Excel Waterfront. Created by twin sisters and designers Elena and Giulia Sella, the experience takes visitors through sixteen installations built around imagination, motivation and the kind of dreaming you forget to do once you become an adult. An upside-down apartment, a heart-shaped tunnel, a pink ball pool, an enchanted forest and a swing through the clouds are among the highlights. For London, AI-powered DreamBand wristbands personalise each visit in real time so no two people have the same experience. The first 100 visitors on opening day receive a Dream Bag. Worth putting in the diary now. Tickets at houseofdreamers.com.
