UPDATE 1-Brazil offers tax advantages via e-commerce compliance program

(Adds quote from finance minister Haddad in paragraph 3) BRASILIA, June 30 (Reuters) – Brazil’s Finance Ministry announced on Friday an exemption from federal taxes on e-commerce purchases up to $50 for companies participating in a new compliance program by the tax revenue service. The country has been trying to close a loophole that some Asian e-commerce giants were seen using to gain tax exemptions by sending shipments as if they were individuals and not businesses. Finance Minister Fernando Haddad told reporters the new aims to “balance competition” between marketplaces, addressing worries from local retailers. Currently, shipments by companies of any value are subject to a 60% federal tax rate on imports, while shipments by individuals are exempt for orders up to $50, with the same tax rate applied above that amount. The program, starting Aug....

We may earn commissions from links on this page, but we only recommend products we love. Promise. 1 Cardigans PG/Bauer-Griffin Fashion seems to have an on-again, off-again relationship with the cardigan. But in the ’90s, there was nothing like an easy cardi to throw over your shoulders in case your spaghetti straps or slip dress got a little chilly. Fast forward to now, and celebs like Kendall Jenner are wearing ’em cropped or only partially buttoned to show a lil skin. Paired with some wide-leg jeans or a pair of low-rise pants (!), and you’re set.

The 10 Key Spring/Summer 2023 Trends To Know Now

Blue jeans, white tanks, flannel shirts. In the end, it was one of the subtler looks from the Bottega Veneta spring/summer 2023 show that got the front row snapping and afterward set Instagram alight. Sure, it was worn by Kate Moss, for whom a runway appearance is a happening these days. And sure, it turned out to be a not-so-simple combination of wafer-thin leather tank, leather trousers dyed to resemble faded jeans and a flannel shirt that required 12 layers of print to achieve that just-so color. But it’s still surprising that “casual comfort”, as designer Matthieu Blazy put it post-show, can be considered one of the key references for the spring/summer 2023 fashion trends, even as we grapple with Barbiecore-meets-skin-galore. Then again, maybe it isn’t. If the industry has one eye on recession, with a...

Milan Fashion Week: Valentino challenges masculine notions

MILAN – The cries of adoring fans filled the air as stars like actor Jacob Elordi and Italian singer Elodie arrived for the Valentino show, which opened Milan Fashion Week menswear previews on Friday. The Milan menswear calendar was missing some mainstays, but the return of Valentino’s menswear for this season kicked off the week with high energy. American performer d4vd provided a live soundtrack from the center stage, pumping music into the colonnaded courtyard of Milan’s state university. Students, taking a break from their regular class schedule, watched from beneath the colonnade, while the fashion crowd tented showing notes on their heads to protect from the beating sun — many regretting dressing in black.
