Maison Margiela and Christian Louboutin have collaborated on their first capsule shoe collection. 

Erdem also showcased sheer painterly overlays, but Steve O Smith’s interpretation was breathtaking in its restrained simplicity.

The collection featured fourteen womenswear and menswear looks, born from dozens of sketches inspired by 1930s and 1950s illustrator-artists. The beauty of the pieces comes from the drape and the shape of the clothing and we particularly like the ghost-like trompe-l'œil effect that hinted at missing elements. Ethereal and weightless, the designs blended nautical influences, erotic undertones, and haute couture craftsmanship, each look embodied a spectral grace.

No. 21's collection embraced timeless elegance with a subtle modern twist. 

Erdem’s collection exuded a dreamy, romantic quality with painterly touches and delicate fabrics.

Emelia Wickstead’s collection embraced a retro-modern aesthetic, drawing heavily from 1960s influences.

The runway at Toga was rich with texture. The collection played to duality and blended elements of menswear and womenswear effortlessly.

Best known for her flattering, feminine designs, Roksanda Illincic surprised with this unexpected, left-of-centre collection.

Huishan Zhang's collection for autumn 2025 exuded a playful 1960s charm, echoing Audrey Hepburn’s timeless elegance while incorporating menswear influences.

Edeline Lee embraces understated elegance with off-shoulder silhouettes that exude effortless sophistication.

How utterly sublime. Harris Reed, the visionary who also helms Nina Ricci’s creative direction, unveils an autumn collection that blurs the line between fashion and fantasy.

As we anticipate the start of London Fashion Week and with the cold weather lingering, let’s explore Lauren Manoogian’s collection of fluid, cozy knitwear.

We used to write about H&M collaborations on the regular. We haven’t seen any for a while that we thought were noteworthy enough to feature here, but we do like this womenswear collection that is inspired by the HBO® Original Series The White Lotus.

Not a particularly cohesive, but generally unobjectionable collection from Ulla Johnson.

The joke is on us. Rather than being inundated with more shows than we could keep up with, we have found the start to this fashion month to be slow and without much to inspire. Luckily this collection by Ashlyn is keeping us from going dark all week. 

Not high fashion and not womenswear, but we very much liked this collection from Kith which incorporates western elements through the use of a patchwork bandana-print.

It has been three long years since we attempted to cover the shows because reporting on them in a timely manner can be extremely intense and by the end of fashion month we are usually burnt out. 

We have tried double-distilling the coverage (meaning we only feature the looks we love from the collections we love) but that never really works to give a full picture. We are going to try once again but with a more streamlined format.

The iconic Max sofa created by Italian designer Antonio Citterio for Flexform in 1983 represented the first time Citterio incorporated organic forms into a more traditional structure confronting the idea of being asymmetrical with a freer form. Now, Citterio and Flexform have joined forces to revisit the idea of the original Max sofa conceiving what they have dubbed the Supermax as a contemporary interpretation of the original 1983 version. 

Tomas Kral Project Design helped Foundry Collection develop this series of objects inspired by - of all things - a clown's nose. 

Almost everyone who has grown up in the Caribbean is familiar with the smoky spiral of the cockset which is burned at night to keep mosquitoes away.

The Ayo Bench was designed by Josh Egesi, who founded his interdisciplinary design studio, Ike and Sons, in Lagos in 2021.

Confused is the right way to put it.

When we first came across these brightly coloured ceramic vessels from Cape Town-based creative studio MUTI, we were captivated by the bright colours and abstract designs. Only upon further research did we discover the pieces are actually 3-D renderings.
