It was a night of firsts! Antonia Gentry, best known as the star of Ginny and Georgia, debuted her first-ever product collaboration with the Copenhagen-based intimates brand, Organic Basics, marking their first collaboration as well. Just like a first kiss or first car, these milestones have a special significance and are filled with an infectious sense of enthusiasm. Together, they co-curated a capsule collection that embodies Organic Basics' commitment to sustainability using recycled, recyclable, plant-based, and organic materials. This partnership not only aligned with the brand's eco-friendly values but also perfectly captured their youthful energy, highlighted by Antonia’s vibrant aesthetic and playful colors like orange and green—while staying true to their planet-first mission. Throughout the process, Antonia and Organic Basics poured their heart and creativity into this project. Partnering with a first-time collaborator like Antonia brought with it a learning curve , but it also infused the design, production, and promotional journey with fresh energy—the kind only a first-time collaboration can create. It’s clear she has big things ahead, both on-screen and in fashion. A huge thank you to my amazing team— Nicole Krasnov —everyone at Organic Basics, Mads Fibiger Rasmussen, Yael Zwanziger, and Antonia’s team Spencer Goldstein, April Tombs, Jessica Sze and Autumn PR's Dana Haffner for bringing this incredible collaboration to life!

This past?Fashion Week, the collaboration between?AREA x?Tinder x Planned Parenthood?took the stage, spotlighting the personal stories of three women who had to cross state lines to access essential abortion care. This partnership goes far beyond fashion—it amplifies voices in a way that resonates with the audience, bringing much-needed attention to the ongoing challenges of reproductive rights on a larger platform. The?sum was truly greater than the parts?in this collaboration. The inclusion of the co-branded T-shirt with?Tinder?and?Planned Parenthood?came down?Area’s?runway —a design styled with a?jock strap—encapsulated the powerful message of?sexual identity?and?control over our bodies, raising the important question:?Who truly holds control over your body? More than just a shirt, this collaboration elevated the issue to a broader platform, using fashion as a medium to spark essential conversations. By coming together, AREA x?Tinder x?Planned Parenthood Federation of America ?are not only collaborating but also raising crucial awareness about reproductive rights. Thank you to everyone at?AREA,?Tinder, and?Planned Parenthood?for standing up for what’s right !?
