Welcome to Launch Digest, where we bring you the latest and greatest product launches to hit the market across the DTC universe. This week, we’re just having fun, pure and simple: a twist on Lambrusco in a can you’ll be proud to picnic with, a swim collection hot enough for Pamela Anderson to put her name on it, and curated antique homeware that will give your next dinner party that ancient Grecian je-ne-sais-quois we’re all yearning for. Let’s rest and digest, shall we?

Olive Ateliers Gets Hip To The Internet
Olive Ateliers, visually recognizable for its beautiful LA-based brick-and-mortar that bursts with one-of-a-kind vintage objects in every corner (read: vessels that look like they adorned the Acropolis), is entering the digital age with a splash. On Wednesday, the brand debuted its first online drop with a curated selection of its most coveted objects, including benches, stools, turkish vases, marble bowls, and vintage pots – only available to shop from 5 - 9pm PST. While you may have missed the initial shopping window (I’m writing to you from the past), this is just the first of ongoing monthly drops. There is something oddly ancient about competing with your fellow man for your ideal Elm stool over the course of a finite few hours.
Ruby And Public Records Bestow Us With The Grapes Of Knowledge, $44.99
Ruby Hibiscus and Brooklyn-based music space and restaurant Public Records joined forces this week in what is my dream brand intersection to launch an equally dreamy Spring beverage: a limited-edition, hibiscus-forward, non-alcoholic spin on Lambrusco, cleverly titled “Grapes of Knowledge.” The can is just as gorgeous and interesting as the sparkly and juicy flavor profile it holds within, designed by Shane Davis, co-founder and Creative Director of Public Records. Made with real, organic Concord grape juice, bubbles, and hibiscus, it’s got all of the tartness and pleasure of a Lambrusco, with none of the alcohol – ideal for sagely sipping all Spring (and Summer) long.
Icons Of Swim: Pamela Anderson And Martha Stewart Never Go Out Of Style
There’s been no shortage of scintillating swimwear news this week. Monday Swimwear recently achieved the holy grail: not only a feature on the cover of Sports Illustrated, but worn by Martha Stewart on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Time to retire!
This week proves that there IS room for two blonde bombshells in this town. Frankies Bikinis launched a capsule designed in partnership with Pamela Anderson, making history as Anderson’s first-ever swimwear collection. The collection keeps it simple, with bold red, white, soft pink, and floral bikinis and one-pieces for every water-adjacent occasion. The obvious star of the collection, aside from Pamela herself, is the Cheeky One Piece in Anderson Red ($185), paying homage to her breakout role in Baywatch. Best worn while running down the Malibu coast.

Sophie Lou Jacobsen Takes Your Tablescape To The Sea, from $450
Glass artist Sophie Lou Jacobsen’s latest Coral Collection, made in partnership with Paris-based La Romaine Editions, has me dreaming of decorating my villa in a charming European coastal utopia. Each piece was hand-blown at a heritage furnace in Biot, France using the “bolle” or “bullicante” method: bubbles are formed by rolling molten glass on a spiked metal surface, creating holes that are then covered with another layer of glass. These little frozen moments in time adorn each vase and vessel – and are just as magical as they sound.

Japanese labels Suicoke and Toga collaborated on your new favorite summer sandals, perfect for looking stylish while trekking through Joshua Tree. Olderbrother launched “Pervasive Bloom” in collaboration with Test Plot and Erin Berbo, featuring the brand’s signature silhouettes dyed with mustard seed harvested from urban park land in Los Angeles. Clean fragrance brand By/Rosie Jane introduced BODY MILK, a light milky formula that tones and moisturizes skin in one fell swoop. Simon Miller and Mango joined forces for a super-charged meeting of the minds, AKA: the Simon Miller vacation-playtime touch, at the Mango price point. Ciao Lucia dropped two shoes as part of a limited collaboration with K. Jacques, and they’re likely to sell out by the end of the weekend. I’m praying this is just the beginning of Ciao Lucia dipping its toes into footwear, pun intended…
