A Note Of Appreciation For The Thoughtful Retailers Closing Their Doors Right Now
As the world dives deeper into a collective state of uncertainty, you may feel like you’re drowning in the constant stream of bad news and alarming information flooding our feeds and networks. We’re right there with you. While we usually look to one another for support during times of unease, seeking out the shoulder of a loved one to cushion our heavy heads, that kind of comfort is no longer an option in the unchartered waters of social distancing. So as we retreat indoors with the intention of staying put for the foreseeable future, our digital communities have become more important than ever before. And while we weren’t expecting it, some of our favorite fashion and beauty retailers are giving us new reason to appreciate their online presence and it has nothing to do with product.
Since no one is immune to the coronavirus and the havoc it now wreaks on our daily lives, we’ve been presented with an opportunity to pull back the curtain on the establishments we frequent to see what they’re really all about. For the many companies that pride themselves on an ethos of thoughtfulness and empowerment — now’s the time to show instead of tell. And with companies like LVMH using its perfume factories to produce hand sanitizer and Prada donating six intensive care units to hospitals in Milan, the true colors of certain retailers are shining bright in this moment of darkness.
Beloved brands like Glossier are putting the safety of their staff and customers first by closing their doors despite short-term business goals. Founder Emily Weiss even published a blog post on her company’s website to go into further detail about this decision, assuring readers that staff will be paid regardless as the team is “prepared to put public health ahead of our bottom line.” Retailers such as Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters are doing the same. In a letter to its community, Aritzia even announced that all of its profits during this time will go to the Aritzia Community™ Relief Fund to support its people and their families, and even more companies are donating profits to COVID-19 relief efforts.
Many of these retailers already had our wallets, but they’ve now got our hearts too as they seek to engage their audiences more authentically. Weiss, for example, took to Instagram to reflect on how Glossier can continue bringing joy to its community while respecting calls for social distancing and public safety. Reformation passed the mic to its followers to better understand what kind of content a retailer should be producing right now, writing: “What’s resonating with you? Do you still want to hear about new collection launches and sustainability stuff? Or do you need a break? Please let us know.” But first, the brand announced the closure of its stores with paid time off for its retail teams.
This is a complicated time for retail, so we wanted to acknowledge the companies doing their best to establish a new normal without compromising their commitments to both customers and employees. And we don’t just want to thank these retailers for taking such considered action, we’d like to take a page out of their Insta-books and turn to our own audience for guidance — it’s a complicated time for us as publishers too, after all. So tell us what you want to see more (and less!) of over the coming weeks so we can create the content you’re craving right now. But first, check out the messages from retailers we believe are doing the right thing and, if you can, support them by shopping online.

Glossier Closes All Retail Shops During COVID-19
The Met Gala Has Been Indefinitely Postponed
After much speculation over whether or not the Met’s annual fashion gala would, in fact, take place despite the COVID-19 outbreak, we’ve received the final word: The 2020 Met Gala is postponed indefinitely.
Prior to today’s announcement, events and destinations all over the world — including the Louvre, Coachella, Disneyland, Broadway, and more — have either been called off or closed down in an effort to slow down the global pandemic. But despite the Met itself closing its Fifth Avenue doors last Thursday, we weren’t quite convinced that the Met Gala would follow suit. It is, after all, an Anna Wintour-led event, and like Vogue’s editor-in-chief, it seemed indomitable. Alas, with CNN putting the number of coronavirus deaths worldwide at 6,500 and New York City’s number of cases surging from 729 to 950 since Sunday, the decision to postpone had to be made.
According to Vogue, the final call came down to New York’s Governor Andrew Cuomo’s announcement this morning that no gatherings with over 50 people in attendance were to take place for the next eight weeks. Governors from New Jersey and Connecticut made the same decision. The Met decided, according to a museum spokesperson, that “in deference to this guidance, all programs and events through May 15 will be canceled or postponed.” And since the Gala famously takes every year on the First Monday in May — this year’s engagement was set to take place on the 4th of the month — it too had to be pushed.
This year’s exhibition, “About Time: Fashion and Duration,” which was to be hosted by Louis Vuitton’s creative director of womenswear Nicolas Ghesquière, alongside Emma Stone, Meryl Streep, Lin-Manuel Miranda, and, of course, Anna Wintour, was expected to be one for the record books, even after 2019’s very over-the-top camp theme. For now, though, we’re holding out hope that once the threat of coronavirus has been terminated, we’ll still get the chance to see how this year’s theme is brought to life.
While we wait, Anna Wintour herself gave us one thing to look forward to: a sneak peek of the About Time exhibition in Vogue’s May issue. Meet you at the newsstands at the end of April?

Prada Donates Six ICUs To Milanese Hospitals
Yesterday, Italy reported a devastating 368 deaths in just 24 hours. In the wake of such news, the fashion community is responding quickly, starting with LVMH, which halted production on perfume and cosmetics to instead dedicate its factories to making hand sanitizer. And today, Patrizio Bertelli and Miuccia Prada, the co-CEOs of Milan-based fashion company Prada, donated six Intensive Care Units, or ICUs, to three separate hospitals in Milan: San Raffaele, Sacco, and Vittore Buzzi, the last of which is a children’s hospital.
Italian influencer Chiara Ferragni and her husband Fedez also made a donation to the cause. Last Monday, the couple donated 100,000 euros to San Raffaele hospital to go towards providing more beds for patients in the ICU through a GoFundMe set up by the hospital’s head of cardiovascular and general intensive care units. After Ferragni posted the donation page’s link on her Instagram page — which boasts 18.8 million followers — Dr. Zangrillo’s GoFundMe raised over 4,198,860 euros and counting.
Italian fashion designer Giorgio Armani donated 1.25 million euros to Milanese hospitals, including Luigi Sacco, San Raffaele, and the Istituto dei Tumori, as well as the Istituto Lazzaro Spallanzani in Rome. A portion of his donation will also support Italy’s civil defense otherwise known as the Protezione Civile, according to WWD. Donatella Versace and her daughter followed suit, donating 200,000 euros to San Raffaele on March 13. “This is when we, as a society, need to stand together and care for one another,” the mother-daughter duo said in a statement. In February, the Italian fashion house contributed 1 million renminbi, equivalent to about $143,400, to the Chinese Red Cross Foundation.
Vice reported yesterday that Italy’s civil protection chief put the total number of cases in the country at 24,747, with 3,590 just diagnosed yesterday. As the number of infected people increases, so too does the need for beds and medical supplies in hospitals, making these donations increasingly important to treating COVID-19 in Italy, one of the epicenters of the global pandemic.
