Eileen Fisher Renew program takes over brand's website
Any visitors to Eileen Fisher's website on Monday will be automatically directed to the brand's resale program, dubbed Renew. The program, which launched in 2009, takes back clothes from customers to either resell, donate, recycle or upcycle. The site takeover, coinciding with Earth Day, urges shoppers to buy what's gently worn versus brand new. Current items on Renew range from linen tank tops to its recent collaboration with Seattle-based natural dye company Botanical Colors. {Fashionista inbox}

Caitlin Clark's stylist talks breakout Prada moment
Caitlin Clark's viral, head-to-toe Prada look marked the first time the Italian label dressed an NBA or WNBA player on draft night, and Adri Zgirdea, Clark's stylist, was acutely aware of what this moment meant: "It typically takes five years before a major fashion brand will agree to dress any athlete. They want to see players established and generating buzz before they make the investment to work together," she told WWD. "Caitlin is a head turner, whether that's on the court, being the first to wear Prada at the draft or making a guest appearance on 'SNL' — she's got people talking and investing in women's sports in a way we've never seen before." {WWD}

Vestiaire Collective's third Circularity Report looks at cost-per-wear numbers
Pre-loved fashion retailer Vestiaire Collective released its third Circularity Report, comparing down cost-per-wear numbers between secondhand luxury items and fast fashion. It found, for example, that used designer bags have about a 72% lower cost-per-wear than new, fast fashion items thanks to their quality and resale value. "Fast fashion is a false economy. Buying cheap fast fashion is deceptive, as in the end you end up replacing items again and again. Pre-loved luxury items are more cost-effective over time with a longer lifespan," Chief Impact Officer Dounia Wone said in a press release. See the full report here. {Fashionista inbox}
