Jonathan Anderson has just given Dior’s historic Medallion Chair a new chapter. And, voilà, the Dior Medallion Chair is suddenly more interesting than another sculptural shoe, trophy bag, or another red carpet dress trying to look like architecture with Wi-Fi. This is not because we suddenly want to replace our wardrobes with furniture. Although, frankly, … Read more

Originating from the Pyrenees region, nestled between France and Spain, the espadrilles boast soles crafted from jute or plant-based rope. Whether gracing the feet of King of Aragon’s soldiers or making fashion statements on Salvador Dali and Yves Saint Laurent, espadrilles have stood the test of time. As you wander through the vibrant streets of … Read more
The flip-flop was never supposed to be elegant. It was too flat, too rubbery, too practical, too close to real life. And yet, here we are: in 2026, a red Havaianas x Zara pair is becoming the small summer object everyone suddenly understands. The return did not happen overnight. In 2023, at Dior’s Fall show … Read more
Dior Cruise 2027 arrived in Los Angeles with headlights, flowers, Bar jackets and the ghost of old Hollywood. Jonathan Anderson’s first Cruise collection for the maison was not only about clothes, but about cinema, memory and the strange glamour of being watched.
There is something almost funny about the return of the Longchamp Le Pliage. For years, it lived in that complicated corner of fashion reserved for pieces we associated with school runs, airport terminals, university libraries and the practical side of grown-up life. Then, almost without warning, it reappeared on the arms of Gen Z girls … Read more
Andalusia summer destination #1. Why? A region of layered history, architectural beauty, remarkable food, and summer addresses worth saving.
Zara x Leandra Medine Cohen turns spring style into something sharper and more personal. Less template, more instinct.

Schiaparelli at the V&A is the kind of exhibition that reminds you fashion once had more nerve. Elsa Schiaparelli made clothes with wit, mischief and artistic ambition, and the V&A’s new show gives her the London stage she deserves.
There is something quietly telling about the way trainers have moved from performance objects to emotional companions. We no longer wear them to run faster, but to move through life with a little more ease. With the Sunny trainer, Jimmy Choo signals a Spring/Summer 2026 shoe trend defined by lightness, femininity, and a quiet ballerina … Read more
At Dior, Easter arrives in dark and white chocolate. But behind this beautiful object lies a much older story: one about faith, spring, restraint, and why an egg became one of Christianity’s most enduring symbols. At a moment when luxury often confuses size with meaning, Dior has done something more charming for Easter: it has … Read more
Zalando did not choose Lily Collins for noise. It chose her for something rarer in fashion now: credibility. The phrase Lily Colins Zalando Ambassador sounds almost too neat at first. Too marketable. Too easy. But the more you think about it, the more interesting it becomes. In February 2026, Zalando named Lily Collins its first … Read more

The Spring/Summer 26 Fashion Campaigns are here, making glossy magazines thicker, prettier, and, for once, worth lingering over. And yes, that may sound nostalgic. In an age dominated by influencers, sponsored posts, and endless soft-selling disguised … Read more
During Paris Fashion Week, my daughter was in Paris with friends, one of them a well-known fashion photographer with Hermès on his portfolio and the kind of eye that can probably spot a weak campaign from across the Seine. While he continues to work for major luxury brands, I found myself thinking about a question … Read more

The Montblanc Romeo & Juliet Valentine’s Day writing gift arrives as an antidote to predictable gestures; flowers that wilt, jewellery that performs, messages typed and instantly forgotten. Instead, it proposes something slower: writing as intimacy, literature as a shared language. With this new … Read more
There is something quietly overwhelming about Dior Haute Couture 2026, especially when it marks the very first haute couture collection by Jonathan Anderson, now holding the creative reins of Dior womenswear and menswear. Eight collections a year. Endless deadlines. Public scrutiny at an industrial scale. And then, on top of all that: haute couture. One … Read more
There is something quietly telling about the way Alexander Skarsgård appears on a red carpet. He does not rush the moment, nor does he attempt to dominate it. At the Sundance Film Festival, for the premiere of his new film Wicker, Skarsgård arrived in a custom full look by COS, and once again reminded us … Read more
There is something quietly telling about fashion’s recurring need to borrow shock from pornography. Anyone who has taken a basic marketing course knows the old mantra: sex sells. What is mentioned less often is the second part of that lesson: sex is usually deployed when there is little else left to say. In luxury fashion, … Read more
At a moment when luxury houses are quietly rethinking who they speak to and how, Dior has made a deliberate, intelligent choice.
