This looks more like a promotional write-up than a properly sourced article. None of the cited sources actually establish notability. The first reference is a Spotlight article, which is essentially a paid feature and not independent. The second doesn't really go into detail about the subject. The rest are either trivial mentions, SEO-driven, or just routine business updates. A thorough search brings up nothing substantial just the usual PR and business announcements.

@Kaffa23 Looking at the sources, the first reference is just a listicle or a curated roundup of fashion updates. Listicles are usually brief and surface-level, so they don't really contribute to notability. The second reference is a Spotlight article, which is essentially a paid feature, meaning it's not independent. The third is just a basic product launch announcement, and the fourth is another article covering the same launch. There's nothing here that establishes notability in a meaningful way.
