Belmont Cameli on Breaking Out in ‘Off Campus’ and the Sensation of Hockey Romances

This time around, Belmont Cameli will be bringing fewer clothes.  The 28-year-old actor, in the midst of a major breakout thanks to Prime series “Off Campus,” is still in New York wrapping up press for Season One at the time of this interview, and is due back on set in Vancouver in a mere five days to begin work on the second season.  “I’m so sick of going back to storage that I’ve just been traveling with two pairs of pants in one bag,” Cameli says. “Last year when I went to Vancouver, I brought way too much s–t — which ended up being fun because I hosted everyone on Friday nights [for] costume parties with all the clothes I had. But I say all of that to say, my life has become far more minimalist.” Cameli stars as Garrett Graham in “Off Campus,” a Prime Video series adaptation of the hit Elle Kennedy book series. The first season, based on Kennedy’s 2015 book “The Deal,” follows hockey star Graham, who offers to swap dating adv...

Jeremy Scott Reflects on Viral AI Commencement Speech

Before delivering his now-viral commencement speech for the Kansas City Art Institute on May 16, Jeremy Scott wasn’t sure how his words were going to land. It was two days after Gloria Caulfield was booed during her commencement speech for the University of Central Florida, in which she praised AI as the next “Industrial Revolution.” So Scott had reservations about opening his own speech with AI-generated text. But shortly into his speech, the fashion designer ripped up his notecard and revealed the words were a gimmick, before launching into his own take on the importance of authenticity in art and design. “ I was really nervous,” Scott said on Tuesday night in New York, shortly after the video of his speech went viral. “I’m still toying with talking about AI,” he added. “A lot of people feel like, ‘Oh wait, I understand it’s a tool.’ And I understand that in a very artistic manner, a...

If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, WWD may receive an affiliate commission. If you consider Memorial Day the full-fledged start of summer, then the hottest and happiest season is finally upon us. What this also means? Your warm-weather hobbies, from kayaking and tubing to waterpark-attending and beach-rotting, are once again going to involve water — and the act of stepping into water. To ensure this process is as slip-free and comfortable as possible, the best water shoes for women and men should be treated as one of summer’s most important footwear purchases.

Inside the Cultural and Commercial Boom of Saudi Beauty

Saudi Arabia’s beauty sector is undergoing a transformation that is both commercially significant and culturally defining. What was once a fragmented landscape of small, founder‑led labels has rapidly evolved into one of the Middle East’s most dynamic consumer categories. And it’s a market that consumers, retailers and investors can no longer afford to overlook. With a young population, high per‑capita spending and a deep cultural connection to beauty and self‑expression, the kingdom is now cultivating a homegrown industry with global potential. At the center of this shift is a powerful trend: localization as a competitive advantage. Saudi beauty brands are not simply adapting global formulas. Instead, they are designing products that respond directly to the region’s climate, skin tones and cultural preferences. From lightweight, heat‑resistant foundations to hair care tailored for humidity and texture diversity, these brands are solving problems that...
