Everything We Want From the Lisa Says Gah x Fishwife Collaboration

Published on

In this era of Shoppy Shops and gourmet groceries, you’re not a proper food brand until you’ve done a collaboration with some luxury brands. Sweetgreen’s partnering with Susan Alexandra to weave their recognizable green takeout bag into a beaded tote and Heinz has teamed up with Kate Spade to splash ketchup splatters across shoes. Each release feels like it’s trying to top the one before it, trying to win the Internet’s hearts at the piece of kitschy high/low fashion that’ll turn heads. So when we heard that perennial food fashion royalty Lisa Says Gah was teaming up with tinned fish brand Fishwife to create a collection of fish-themed pieces? It felt like a match made in heaven.

Lisa Says Gah x Fishwife

Smoked Atlantic Salmon 3-Pack

Like many others, I have lusted over my fair share of Lisa Says Gah pieces—kitschy, mirthful pieces that inspire visions of me gallivanting off to dinner in one of their tapas-speckled dresses or pasta-laden shirts. In those visions, I’m carefree. I’m that girl. Mix that kitschy, mirthfulness with tinned fish, the Internet’s favorite protein-filled snack, and now I’m frollicking around town swinging a woven basket bag and wearing a white baby doll t-shirt printed with two brightly hued sardine cans. A stack of silver beaded fish bracelets snakes up my wrist and a matching necklace dangles from my neck. In these pieces, it feels like you too can become the blissfully content Fishwife stamped across the tinned fish brand’s boxes—happily smoking your pipe (or…something else…) and munching on a tin of the sardines also splashed on your shirt. It’s meta.

But wait! There’s more…

Jacobsen Salt Co x Fishwife Salt Tin

Alaina Chou, commerce producer: “We’re in the golden age of consumer packaged goods, and Jacobsen Salt Co. and Fishwife are two bonafide darlings within the space—which is why I was so excited to hear that two were collabing on a limited edition version of Jacobsen Salt Co.’s iconic slide tins. This one features an adorable illustration and is filled with an lemon zest-infused salt. I’m already eager to taste it on just about any dish, sweet or savory. We’ve entered the portion of the summer when it’s so hot out I can’t be bothered to cook anything at all, so I’m planning on sprinkling some of this citrusy salt over a tin of Fishwife’s smoked salmon, grabbing a baguette, and calling it a day.”

Stanley Cup x LoveShackFancy

Stanley Cup x LoveShackFancy

Carina Finn, commerce editor: “When I saw the news that Stanley was coming out with a new LoveShackFancy collab, I braced myself for the frenzy I knew it would create. Two super-viral brands making one excessively adorable giant cup? ‘This is gonna do numbers,’ we said in our commerce team group chat. I managed to get my hands on a 40-ounce Stanley Quencher in a sweet pink rose pattern that reminds me a little of the Felicity American Girl doll dress. I almost hate to admit it, but I’m obsessed. Yeah, it’s just another big, insulated straw cup, but this one has flowers on it. The translucent pink lid, straw, and delicate pink bow straw topper make this the ultimate accessory for hydrated coquette queens.”

Tasty x CookUnity

Megan Wahn, associate commerce editor: I only check Facebook once in a blue moon, and every time I log on I fall victim to those sped-up 2010s-esque cooking videos. You know the ones—they cut into some deliciously stuffed red pepper tacos that delude you into thinking you too can achieve this at home! Spoiler alert: I never could then and I still probably can’t now, but it’s nice to fantasize. Except maybe I don’t have to anymore. Food recipe site Tasty (who also happens to be one of the top creators of those aforementioned cooking vids) is pairing up with one of our favorite meal kit brands, CookUnity, to provide a menu taken straight from Tasty’s recipe archives. Now there’s an idiot-proof way for me to achieve those Facebook-cooking-video results for my dinner that I’ve been craving since 2010.

Wonderskin x Chipotle

Carina Finn, commerce editor: “Before I was BA’s commerce editor, I was a full-time restaurant critic. This meant I was constantly searching for a lip color that would actually stay on through long, extravagant meals. The one I kept coming back to was Wonderskin’s viral peel-and-reveal lip stain kit (which actually works). Now, the brand is collaborating with Chipotle to make a guac-themed, guac-proof lip stain called…(wait for it)…Lipotle. Here’s how it works: You apply the shimmery, green lip stain, spray on the activator, then peel it off to reveal a warm, neutral berry color. Fair warning, this will stay on not only through chips and guac, but dinner, dessert, and your regular nighttime skin routine. Make sure you have an oil-based cleanser on hand.”

Little Spoon x Graza

Emily Farris, senior commerce writer: I love it when brands that I genuinely like partner up for a collaboration. It’s kind of like when two friends I’m certain would hit it off finally meet IRL, but less cute. Well, until now—because Graza (maker of the olive oil in the squeezable green bottles) just dropped some miniature ready-to-eat meals with DTC kid-food brand Little Spoon. The limited-edition Little Drizzle collection features two meals: a blended baby food and a toddler-friendly Mediterranean-style chicken bravos. While I am, of course, excited to get a nutritions, zero-effort dinner in front of my four-year-old, I’m equally excited to get my full-grown lady hands on one of those itty bitty Graza bottles.

Gelée

Megan Wahn, associate commerce editor: Not one, not two, but three Bon Appetit shopping editors (myself included) are eagerly counting down the days until they can get their hands on this new packaged gelatin dessert from chef and artist Zoe Messinger. Personally I’ve got my eye on the guava nectar and passion flavors. As for my other colleagues…

Carina Finn, commerce editor: “As someone who is obsessed with retro recipes, I’m really intrigued by the concept of a modern take on gelatin-based desserts. I can’t wait to make my friends eat some kind of salad suspended in passion fruit gelee at my next backyard BBQ.”

Alaina Chou, commerce producer: “I’ll always have a soft spot in my heart for good old fashioned Jell-O, so naturally I was eager to get my hands on this modern take on my childhood fave. Fruit-forward and refreshing, it seems like the ideal hands-off dinner party dessert—now I just need to hunt for a fun vintage mold to make it in.”
