Urban Decay: From “Battle the Bland” to a New Era of Outspoken Beauty
Written by SULÉY ERA
In a move that reinforces its rebellious origins and unwavering commitment to self-expression, Urban Decay is boldly charting its future. Within a matter of weeks, the brand has issued not one but two resonant declarations — first rallying the “Battle the Bland” initiative, then announcing a high-profile partnership with Dove Cameron to usher in a new era of outspoken beauty. These twin thrusts articulate a unified vision: to disrupt the ordinary, champion authenticity, and catalyze a cultural conversation around individuality and performance. On July 30, 2025, Urban Decay launched its impassioned “Battle the Bland” campaign, framing it as “the first single off the Urban Decay comeback tour”. Originating from their Los Angeles roots, “Born in LA and built on creative rebellion,” the beauty brand positions itself as a beacon for “self-expression, self-obsession and the freedom of self-reinvention” in a “boring world filled with safe shades of pink.”

Threads of Earth, Strokes of Spirit: The World of Sandra Prest Froher
Written by Yuliya Suleymanova
In the lush, salt-kissed wilds of Vancouver Island, where the earth breathes in moss and memory, Sandra Prest Froher is not merely creating fashion; she is conducting a dialogue with the land. A Canadian artist, fashion designer, and natural dyer of Stó:lō descent, Prest-Froher has rooted her creative universe in the sacred act of listening to her ancestors, to the elements, and to the invisible energies that pulse through time and fabric alike. A member of the Sqwá First Nation, Froher lives and works on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations, a location that is not incidental, but instrumental to her process. It’s here that she forages for leaves, bark, seeds, and roots, transforming them into pigments that will eventually stain silk with whispers of origin, spirit, and place. The result is a striking line of eco-dyed, wearable art: earthborn, slow-crafted, and sensorially alive.
