These are the stories making headlines in fashion on Tuesday.

Jennifer Garner covers Allure May 2023
For Allure’s latest cover, Jennifer Garner was photographed by Tom Schirmacher and styled by Yashua Simmons in Miu Miu. In the accompanying story, she spoke to Danielle Pergament about the struggles of being under the watchful eye of paparazzi, why she no longer looks at the tabloids and what life would be like if she wasn’t an actor. When opening up about lessons she’s learned from motherhood, Garner said, “Your kids will really figure out who they are and what they are when they’re older, and most likely they will hew toward lovely. I have a lot of faith in my kids. I don’t love every behavior all the time, always. It’s gnarly growing up. We didn’t have the eyes on us that our kids have. I was such a first-time mom. My eldest daughter didn’t have a shot. She couldn’t have a free thought — I was all over her. I was a nightmare for everyone around me.” {Allure}

Walter Albini is coming back
Renowned Italian fashion brand Walter Albini is being revived by Bidayat, an Alsara Investment Group investment company founded by Rachid Mohamed Rachid. Having acquired the intellectual property and much of the archives, Bidayat is relaunching the dormant fashion brand with the aim of reclaiming its spot as a top luxury label. To bring about recognition of Albini’s legacy before the relaunch, archival designs by the designer will be shared with various museums, institutions and curators — including fashion pieces, accessories, costume jewelry, photographs and original drawings. “We are honored having unearthed this hidden jewel of Italian high fashion and are currently studying Walter Albini’s vast heritage to set the foundations for the future of the eponymous brand,” said Rachid in a press release. {Fashionista inbox}

Ad watchdog cracks down on misleading beauty and health claims
The UK’s Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) is intervening in misleading beauty and health advertisements as complaint reports increase about the misinformation. According to The Guardian, the ASA is banning ads exaggerating the benefits of treatments such as Botox, diet aids and lip fillers. Though it is illegal to promote Botox to the general public, a recent study found nine out of 10 beauty clinics are breaking this law. In 2022, the ASA received 651 complaints about cosmetic treatments and instigated 640 cases. “We’re moving to a more proactive method of regulation, processing more ads than ever before to quickly get those that are a problem banned,” an ASA spokesperson told The Guardian. {The Guardian}
