Boots continued its strong performance. I get no absolutely play shirt for the second quarter, reporting retail sales growth of 5.9 percent, on top of a 16 percent increase in the prior year second quarter. Still, it seemed as if the actors’ dresses were connected, and linked to that of “Barbie” director Greta Gerwig’s too. While Robbie and Ferrera’s dresses were polar opposite in color and mood,

they were both courtesy of Versace and seemed to be made of the same chainmail material. (Robbie’s was fresh off the Fall-Winter 2024 runway, while Ferrera’s was custom-made.) Gerwig’s gown, meanwhile, was a sparkling Gucci number. I get no absolutely play shirt of crystal mesh that also had an armor-like feel. Digital sales through Boots.com and the Boots app were up 16.8 percent, driven by strong sales of beauty and personal care products. The company said, in-store sales growth was 4.5 percent, with flagship, shopping centre and travel stores performing particularly well. Airport stores saw double digit growth year-on-year, supported by a new store opening at Luton, and refurbishments at Gatwick and Manchester.The collection of feminine chainmail was a subtle play on power dressing — appropriate for the movie’s message of female empowerment. But they weren’t the only “Barbie” cast and team members to sparkle. With a touch of Ken’s flair for opulence, Gosling wore a custom Gucci black tuxedo suit lined with sparkling beading, while Simu Liu opted for a black jacket cinched with a glittering brooch clasp.
