Finding 'the one' just got that little bit easier, thanks to Ghost’s new bridal collection. Already a firm favourite of the fashion bride, thanks to their simple slip designs and chic colour palettes for bridesmaid dresses, this latest collection has been designed with forever in mind. Choose from minimal satin dresses and chic separates that will see you through your special day and beyond. Whether it's a low-key registry ceremony, or a weekend of celebrations that demands looks for every occasion, these pieces are an elevated – yet budget friendly – way to wow your guests (and spouse-to-be!).
Loewe introduces the Ballet Runner 2.0, a slick and modern trainer that embodies smart casual and is set to elevate your everyday wardrobe. A hybrid between a running shoe and a ballet flat, the refreshed design includes details such as a revamped 'L' monogram along the side of the shoe, as well as an embossed monogram on the tongue. Flexibility and comfort are enhanced by the sophisticated use of the shoe's Sacchetto construction, in which the lining is stitched to the insole, to create an internal sock-like structure that makes these a dream to wear.
The origin of the now iconic Trinity collection, is a ring first imagined by Louis Cartier in 1924. Fast-forward to a centenary later, the jewellery house celebrates this timeless design with a creative tribute to its three interlinked rings. The simplicity of the design has inspired new shapes, volumes, patterns and ways of wearing. Here, the panther, tiger and snake – three animals symbolic to Cartier – enter the Trinity design for the first time. Their motifs can be seen on each of the ring's bands: reptile scales across white gold, and panther spots or tiger stripes created in black lacquer across the yellow and rose gold bands.
London-based studio, Ladéga, champions slow fashion, releasing just twelve silhouettes per year – mostly on a made-to-order basis to avoid over production – and crafted from exceptional deadstock fabrics sourced from luxury fashion houses. This curated capsule of tailored outerwear focuses on understated design, refined fabrications and conscious practices from designer Tumisola Ladega-Hewitt, who was previously at Burberry and Ralph & Russo. Collection I launched this season with an immediately covetable line-up of double wool wrap, cocoon and trench shapes, alongside coordinating scarves and modular totes in a minimalist colour palette.
This exclusive capsule celebrates Dries van Noten's remarkable legacy, as he steps down from his role as creative director of the house after 38 years. The edit features six exclusive styles at Net-A-Porter, as well as three further exclusive styles at Mr Porter, alongside a carefully curated seasonal buy. While the SS25 runway presentation was officially a menswear show, select pieces were showcased on women, reflecting the designer’s commitment to creating clothes that transcend traditional gender boundaries. Combining tactile fabrics, from matte leathers to sheer textures, with a dynamic color palette that spans from neutrals to vibrant hues, the capsule offers Net-A-Porter customers an exclusive opportunity to own a piece from the designers 150th, and final, collection – collector’s items to be worn and treasured forever.
Aeyde, the Berlin-based footwear and accessories brand adored by fashion and industry insiders, presents its Pre-Spring 25 collection – an ode to Sleeping Beauty. Drawing on German folklore and the classic Grimm Brothers fairytale, the collection merges timeless storytelling with modern craftsmanship, debuting in a pop-up at Harrod's iconic 'Shoe Heaven' which will feature key pieces, such as the Danielle mules, Nova pumps and Tara slingbacks, in a sophisticated palette of port, cracked gold, black and silver.
Following on from the Erdem and Barbour SS24 runway collaboration, the two independent British brands have collaborated on a capsule collection of outerwear, which perfectly juxtaposes Erdem’s language of poetic and modern femininity with Barbour’s traditional practicality and heritage fabrications. "I was inspired by the extraordinary Barbour archive, particularly their fabrications and hardware and loved the idea of translating their heritage of practical, utilitarian details and combining it with my language of the feminine," explains Erdem Moralioglu MBE. Across the four key outerwear styles details such as an inky rose bloom overprint, exaggerated peplum waist and silver hardware eyelets deliver a girlish twist to the classic wax jacket.
Starring Italian model and actress, Mariacarla Boscono, the latest 7 For All Mankind collection champions bold self-expression and cultural connectivity. Clean lines and carefully considered proportions lend an effortless sensibility to their latest collection of denim and ready-to-wear. Double denim and bleached washes are a nod to the laidback style of the West Coast – where the LA-born brand is based – punctuated with spliced cut-out details, rugged distressing and mixed metal studs – lending a playful and rebellious edge to the collection.
