News Summary:

On May 1, 2026, Fenty Beauty was highlighted for its 2017 launch under LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton-owned Kendo, a San Francisco-based incubator, where its premise was both simple and radical. Previously, on April 30, 2026, Marc Chaya, co-founder, President, and CEO of Maison Francis Kurkdjian, announced his departure from the luxury fragrance house, citing an "extraordinary journey" of co-founding and building the brand. Also on April 30, LVMH, in partnership with Accor, unveiled the Orient Express sailing ship, a 220-meter, 15000-tonne vessel, following ten years of research and development at Chantiers de l’Atlantique. This development followed the Orient Express brand's official entry into the maritime sector on April 29, 2026, with the christening of its first sailing yacht, the Orient Express Corinthian, which extends its legacy from rail travel into ultra-luxury ocean experiences.
