Bread Beauty Supply Joins New Holding Company Led by Topicals CEO Olamide Olowe
Textured hair care brand Bread Beauty Supply has officially been acquired by Cost of Doing Business (CODB), the newly formed holding company founded by Topicals CEO Olamide Olowe the youngest black woman to raise $10 million funding and President Sochi Mbadugha. CODB will now oversee operations at Bread, supporting the brand’s next phase of expansion while serving as strategic advisors. For those familiar with the creative flair behind both companies — from Topicals’ standout campaigns to Bread’s irreverent tone and trademarked “Scalp Thingy” massager — the partnership feels like a natural next step. It’s also a powerful one, marking one of the first acquisitions by CODB. “Typically when a Black-owned business gets acquired, so many things are changed and altered in a way that isn’t serving our community,” Olowe tells ESSENCE exclusively. That reality makes this acquisition especially meaningful for Bread founder Maeva Heim. “They understand what it takes to build a generational defining brand in this market and I can’t wait to see where they want to take the brand,” she shares. And true to fashion, CODB Holdings has maintained the brand’s DNA and mixed with the brilliance of Topical’s Campaigns as this is seen in a new campaign,  A […] The post Bread Beauty Supply Joins New Holding Company Led by Topicals CEO Olamide Olowe appeared first on BN Style.

Prada Acquires Versace in €1.25 Billion Luxury Power Move
In a major shake-up within the luxury fashion industry, Prada has announced its acquisition of Versace for €1.25 billion ($1.38 billion) from Capri Holdings, the parent company of Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo. The deal follows months of speculation around a possible union between the two Italian powerhouses. While whispers of a breakdown had recently circulated, largely fuelled by market volatility linked to former President Trump’s tariff policies, sources close to the negotiation say the acquisition is officially back on track. Although the transaction was initially expected to close at €1.43 billion, the final price reflects a €180 million reduction. Industry insiders attribute the discount to ongoing turbulence in the global retail sector, which has been rattled by economic uncertainty and shifting trade dynamics. Despite broader challenges in the luxury market, Prada has emerged as a standout performer. The group posted €5.4 billion in revenue for 2024  a 17% increase year-on-year. A major contributor to this growth was Miu Miu, the label responsible for fashion’s most talked-about pieces this year, including viral micro-miniskirts and satin ballet flats. Miu Miu nearly doubled its profits in 2024, reaching close to £1 billion in sales.   View this post on Instagram   A […] The post Prada Acquires Versace in €1.25 Billion Luxury Power Move appeared first on BN Style.

What inspired you to focus your practice on women’s health, and how has your personal journey shaped your approach to therapy? The inspiration for opening Peace of You Therapy Services came from my own postpartum journey. While I felt prepared for labour and delivery, I wasn’t ready for the changes in relationships and how they would impact my mental well-being. I was burdened by the need to hold on to my old identity before becoming a mother and a wife. I felt stuck and unsure of who I was anymore. Amid grief and loss, I launched my private practice to help other women explore self-identity, manage stress, anxiety, or depression, and find their way through the trenches of motherhood.
