![]() ![]() Something I enjoyed was that Weisberger wrote the story from the viewpoints of the three women. Let’s just say, I’ve heard the term “mommy makeover” more than once in Scottsdale. But there was so much in the novel that rang true to this certain demographic. Some of the descriptions of these women sound outlandish, for instance, throwing a viewing party for a newborn with plenty of booze and no baby in sight. Emily’s reaction to the women of the neighborhood is hilarious and let’s face it, some stereotypes are true. There is plenty of superficiality but, most of the time, it’s a humorous look at it. ![]() This story takes a look at women of a certain class and race in an extremely high-end suburban place. However, in the affluent town of Greenwich, Conn., it seems to be a requirement, among many other things. In a sense, though, the workout clothes almost represent exclusivity as spending over $100 for leggings is not an option for some people. The explosion of that brand also opened the doors for athleisure, (which for someone who works at home, I’m all aboard that trend). Lululemon galsĪnyone who has taken a boutique fitness class has seen an abundance of Lululemon workout gear. The women band together to clear Karolina’s name and reputation but they all learn some life lessons along the way. The story features the perspectives of Emily, her friend Miriam, a powerful attorney turned stay-at-home suburban mom and Karolina, a former supermodel, arrested for a DUI despite not being drunk. As I mentioned in my preview, I haven’t read the direct sequel, Revenge Wears Prada but it isn’t needed for this story, as this is a standalone. With When Life Gives You Lululemons, Weisberger focuses on the character of Emily, the other assistant to Miranda Priestly, which was a star-making role for Emily Blunt. She is most known for The Devil Wears Prada, the fictional take on working with Vogue’s Anna Wintour. Those characters in that story, and more so with the film, are engrained in pop culture memory. We’re proud that this partnership is disrupting the $22 billion dollar nylon market, and with lululemon, we will be accelerating the sustainable materials transition at scale – and this is only the beginning,” said Christophe Schilling, CEO and Founder, Geno.Lauren Weisberger is a best-selling author of women’s fiction. Together with lululemon, Geno is opening a new chapter for plant-based nylon and accelerating the sustainable materials transition. “Today marks a major achievement: biotechnology has successfully fermented plant sugars into the chemical building blocks used to make nylon, bringing to life a renewable, plant-based nylon. Sustainable innovation will play a key role in the future of retail and apparel, and this new fabric innovation demonstrates lululemon’s commitment to creating a healthier environment through advancements in product development. In partnership, lululemon and Geno have re-envisioned the decades-old method of nylon production by replacing petroleum from the fabric’s origin with plants, creating a lower-impact alternative to an important material in the performance apparel industry. Lululemon announced its first-ever equity investment in sustainable materials company, Geno, in 2021. The launch of our first plant-based nylon products is an example of lululemon’s environmental commitments in action, and what’s to come on our journey toward net zero.” As part of a long-term partnership with sustainable materials leader Geno, the new material behind the high-performance shirts delivers the same feel as always.Įsther Speck, Senior Vice President, Global Sustainable Business and Impact, lululemon, said “We’ve been working on plant-based nylon with our partner Geno for almost two years, testing ways to integrate this groundbreaking material with our product philosophy of creating products to help our guests feel their best. Lululemon has launched its first products made from renewably sourced, plant-based nylon. ![]()
