August holidays call for updated suitcase essentials. But we’re not about fast fashion, we’re looking to pieces that make people stop to ask. From strokes to stitches, Australian brand HANNAH ARTWEAR’s Holiday ’23 collection combines hand mixed and hand dyed colour on natural fabrics by artisans in India.

While The Jazz Cafe is a mecca in London to see not only iconic performers, it also presents emerging talent and the forthcoming season presents a packed out, all killer schedule, performing for the first time in the UK.

It’s a full calendar worth perusing for a memorable night out in one of London’s most creative neighbourhoods.
Brands are taking over summer hotspots and adorning in them in their own prints for the hot list of jetsetters to take seat. Wrapped around Anacapri’s rocky cliff that plunges into the azure waves of the Gulf of Naples, Capri Palace Jumeirah’s Il Riccio is a celebrity hot spot for renown for its Mediterranean cuisine and chic vibe. For the fourth year running, iconic French fashion house Dior transforms the island’s restaurant and beach club Il Riccio into a sanctuary of fashion. The takeover has seen the seafood haven decorated in Toile de Jouy patterns and installations, accompanied by a pop-up boutique showcasing Dioriviera, the timeless capsule collection. Available exclusively until summer’s end, the collection has been designed by Maria Grazia Chiuri, Creative Director of Dior women’s haute couture, ready-to- wear and accessories collections.
