The new store preserves the building's historic character-keeping original brick walls exposed-while layering in contemporary materials such as metallic finishes, reflective surfaces, and semi‑gloss flooring.

ROOM FOR DREAMS becomes a living manifesto for utopian optimism, creative courage, and the power of imagination through a multilayered approach where large scale installations, cinematic storytelling, live conversations, and ritual-driven encounters converge.

Noemi developed her approach through ongoing dialogue with the artist and her team, as the work itself continued to shift throughout production.

Future serves. He volleys. He shouts '15/Love' from the baseline. Now you know. This knowledge comes courtesy of Louis Vuitton's latest campaign, dubbed, appropriately, 'In My Bag.'

Participating in London Fashion Week is not a luxury but a necessity for any emerging brand aiming to go global. It's your ticket to the world of international fashion. - Katie England, Creative Director of Topshop and curator of the New Generation program

Rafael Leao posted a photo with Francesco Camarda, the two sharing the sponsorship of Adidas. Today, the Portuguese took centre stage in a different way: he walked the runway for Adidas' mega show. He was joined by other top-flight footballers, including Davide Frattesi, Federico Dimarco, and Giacomo Raspadori.

For many of these sophomore efforts, however, the results felt tentative or overworked, with critics questioning direction and coherence. Bottega Veneta was the clear exception. Louise Trotter's collection stood out for its chic restraint and disciplined focus-understated rather than attention-seeking-grounding itself in craft, proportion, and material integrity instead of spectacle.

Fifteen years after the death of Lee McQueen, the brand is struggling to maintain momentum. The founder is a hallowed name in the fashion industry, and one of the few modern designers to whose character and story the wider public feel a connection. But the generation who wore McQueen's original bumsters have aged out of shock-value fashion, and the name has less power over younger consumers.

Everybody thought I would make oversized bomber jackets with monograms, said the mononymous king-of-the-hoodie designer after the show. That's what ChatGPT said, apparently. But that's not why I came to Gucci. Instead, he said, his Gucci will be energy, passion, fun and sex.

Gucci previously commissioned digital artists to produce visuals, including AI-generated images, auctioned as non-fungible tokens by Christie's. In December, it released an AI-generated video of a model strutting down the runway while photographers behind her fall over themselves - literally - to capture her.

Rooted in the heart of Milan, Fiorucci has continuously merged expressive design with everyday practicality, crafting collections that encourage personal styling and a lived-in feel. The spirit of Fiorucci comes alive under the direction of Creative Director Francesca Murri, who brings a fresh perspective to the brand's legacy. Her contemporary vision reinterprets the utopian optimism for which Fiorucci is celebrated, skillfully transforming creativity, emotion, and the essence of freedom into modern wardrobes suitable for today's fashion-forward individuals.

What exactly Giorgio Armani looks like without its eponymous founder at the helm has been the burning question in the fashion industry since the designer's death in September. In Milan on Monday afternoon, it got its answer as the designer's collaborator and right-hand man of four decades, Leo Dell'Orco, made his debut at the Italian fashion house where he will oversee menswear for the foreseeable future. It was the first Armani collection in which the late designer had no involvement.

Even for the largest, most resourced fashion houses, delivering a cohesive capsule of menswear that lives up to increasingly astronomical expectations - all while facing a cutthroat seasonal cycle and mounting industry consolidation - is a momentous task. More so when they haven't shown for 20 years. Then again, as Mr. Lauren has proven time and again, it is ill-advised, if not downright foolish, to bet against him.

Subtlety has never really been Dean and Dan Caten's thing. Hence the fact that, for Autumn/Winter 2025 - their 30th design anniversary - the pair behind Dsquared2 offered this leather belt , executed in collaboration with young Italian designer Luca Magliano. It's embossed with a word that could either be coyly taken as an affectionate term of familiarity for a gentleman named Richard, or terminology for a wider panorama of character (non-gender specific, non-complimentary), or indeed just a shorthand for male genitalia.

Continuing its journey of consistent, evolutionary development, the collection embodies Lardini's Code of Making: craftsmanship as a cultural value, an aesthetic stance, and a catalyst for innovation. The intersection of traditional tailoring and technological precision culminates in materials that convey meaning, while process quality emerges as the true luxury. The FW26/27 collection unfolds through four interwoven expressions: Contemporary Tailoring, Iconic Outerwear, Knitwear Layering, and Sophisticated Casual, creating a coherent yet understated aesthetic.

It's an interesting connection between that table and these clothes, because Marc Jacobs has been in Wonderland for a few seasons, making garments swollen with great buboes of fabric and wadding that distended and deformed the body, like majestic mutants. They were wondrously otherworldly, outscale and, to most people, unwearable. Intentionally so. This collection, by contrast, brought Jacobs literally down to earth, taking his models off teetering platforms and into plain old high heels.
