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.
"When it's hot or humid, the longevity of your makeup really starts with how you prep the skin. I always begin with a smoothing primer to create grip, followed by a lightweight, breathable complexion product rather than anything overly heavy."
London has always been a city of discovery. London doesn't just host fashion, it incubates it. Co-Director Biljana Poposka Roberts calls this season "fashion without borders," and that's exactly what it felt like: a cultural collision in the chicest possible way.
Even a casual mention of online lottery tucked into lifestyle chatter feels normal because influencers blend interests so effortlessly across posts, creating a steady flow of conversation that pulls you in. Fashion content has a now-or-never feel. Fashion choices are seen as they happen, rather than in a presentation. Fashion influencers are turning mundane environments into instant fashion displays. This authenticity inspires a whole new generation of fashion with a fresh look.
Travelling for art can be incredibly virtuous and culturally rewarding, like collecting souvenirs for your eyes (and from the post card rail in the gift shop). Remembering to research what is on before I book flights is a lesson I learnt all too well after I missed the Metropolitan Museum's fashion exhibition in 2016 by one day. As a fashion obsessed 20 something, I did not take this well and have since improved my itinerary planning and exhibition calendar checking.
I think that people have realized that if I had a pair of distressed jeans, they can't wear them more than once or twice - three times tops - in a year because it's gonna look repetitive,
"Sporty-prep" is the sweet spot between polished and comfortable-and it's everywhere right now. The preppy style-trend blends classic staples like polo shirts, cardigans, and tailored trousers with sporty pieces like comfy sneakers, barrel sweatpants, and baseball caps. The result? Travel outfits that feel intentional yet relaxed, making them ideal for trips, long walks, and "straight off the plane" plans. Amazon's Sporty Prep storefront makes the look easy to recreate without overthinking it.
Choosing a particular model does not necessarily mean focusing on excessive colour, but rather knowing how to identify the lines and volumes that communicate a precise aesthetic vision that breaks with convention. This process requires a certain awareness of materials and proportions, as a shoe with a strong design has the ability to transform even the simplest outfit into a sophisticated and modern style statement.
The end of the show did not mark the end of the trip. Back at the Le Grand Bellevue the group divided between fireside hot chocolates and the hotel's spa. The hotel's Le Grand Spa is over 3,000 square metres and has eight different types of saunas, several ice showers, foot baths and an outdoor bubble pool (named thus as it's bigger than your standard jacuzzi).
Black leggings might have formed the backbone of your off-duty wardrobe over the holidays, but if you just wore them for afternoon naps or, at a push, to get a takeaway coffee, you're missing their full potential. The street-style set doesn't use this item of clothing (purely) for exercise or work from home days. Instead, they wear black leggings not just on the streets but to fashion shows, letting their slimline second skins into circles more hallowed than, say, your sofa.
Last week, Berlin-based sustainable customisation brand L.A.M.E.official made a splash at Berlin Fashion Week with the unveiling of their latest collection. As part of the launch of their online shop, the show captivated audiences by celebrating collaboration, movement, and self-expression.
