Fall is rapidly approaching and with it comes new seasonal collections that we need to keep our eye on. July and August brought many new stories to us here at PR Newswire. We have seen a number of back-to-school campaigns and stories of companies becoming more environmentally conscious in the fashion and beauty industry.

PR Newswire distributed more than 500 fashion & beauty press releases in July and August. Some of the most viewed fashion & beauty press releases during that time include:

Fashion & Beauty Sustainability

There has been an uptick in companies becoming more eco-friendly than ever before. As consumers, we are more likely to purchase a product or support a brand if it's environmentally sustainable. Sustainability in the fashion industry is even more desirable to consumers, due to the increase in fast fashion and the backlash against it. Not only are we seeing brands being more sustainable, but we are also seeing more organic/all-natural beauty products hit the market.

Here are some headlines that caught our attention in July and August:

All New for Back-to-School Season

The closing of summer means it's time for all the new back-to-school collections. I remember cringing when seeing back-to-school commercials when I was younger, but now I get tempted to buy a new wardrobe of clothes. So, whether consumers are going back to high school, college, or just going to their next day at work, there's something for them. Here are some of the releases that grabbed our attention.

New Collection Section

It is time to break out your baggy sweaters, pants, and boots because fall is upon us. As sad as we are to see summer leave, we now get to enjoy all the new fall collections.

Whether you’re looking for your next comfy cable knit sweater or pumpkin-spiced everything, we’ve seen it all on the wire in recent months.

Some of our favorite collection drops include:

Takeaways

We have seen so much exciting news from the fashion and beauty industry in July and August. Brands and companies are working to become far more sustainable and eco-friendly and we're sure to see many more following in their footsteps. We got to experience all the new back-to-school campaigns and new exhilarating fall collections.

Here at PR Newswire, there is never a dull moment, and we are ecstatic to see what the end of 2023 brings us for fashion and beauty.
