Watches for Women

First unveiled in 1987, the Première challenged traditional watchmaking with a design that broke away from masculine conventions. Featuring an octagonal silhouette inspired by the N°5 perfume stopper and a strap drawn from the chain of the classic quilted handbag, this daring piece quickly carved out a space as a style icon. A creation shaped by unbounded imagination, its enduring elegance continues to resonate through the decades.

For 2025, the design incorporates braided detailing, a key signature within the Chanel style lexicon. Echoing the trims once used by Gabrielle Chanel to outline and structure her tailored jackets, the twisted form reappears in the Première Galon. Crafted in 18-carat yellow gold, the bangle features a sleek black lacquer dial free of numerals. A couture-infused statement, the piece also arrives in diamond-set variations, bridging horology and high jewellery.

New bags 2025 Louis Vuitton

The Louis Vuitton AW25–26 collection draws inspiration from the romanticism of rail travel ; stations where fleeting encounters unfold, unknown lives intersect, and journeys begin. Echoes of movement, nostalgia, and elegance shape this vision of modern exploration. A new signature creation by Nicolas Ghesquière, the Express bag pays homage to vintage travel aesthetics while embracing contemporary sophistication.

Inspired by the original name of the 30s Speedy, the design combines supple grained leather and velvet calfskin with Monogram details, gold-tone hardware, and jacquard lining. Offered in three sizes and refined shades such as Black, Hazelnut, Mahogany, Taupe, and a dual-tone Ivory with Olympe Blue, the Express balances versatility and craftsmanship with a fluid silhouette and adaptable carrying options.

A/W 25 Campaigns

Louis Vuitton’s AW25-26 collection explores a dialogue between sharp structure and soft movement, where sculptural tailoring meets layered textures in a study of contrast and refinement. Earthy tones blend with metallic flashes, while technical fabrics contrast with rich embroidery and draped silhouettes.

Footwear and accessories embrace architectural forms and experimental materials, elevating function to art. Bringing this vision to life, House Ambassadors Emma Stone and Hoyeon embody the collection’s duality, cinematic grace in dialogue with modern edge, captured in a campaign that channels the Maison’s ever-evolving codes through a new lens of movement, craftsmanship, and presence.

McQueen’s AW25 campaign channels a gothic tension between discipline and abandon, inspired by Victorian-era radicals and the aesthetic defiance of figures such as Oscar Wilde, Vesta Tilley, and Romaine Brooks. Directed and photographed by Glen Luchford, the visuals unfold in spectral light, where movement shifts from stillness to ecstatic contortion.

Sharp tailoring cuts through layers of raw-edged lace, silk, georgette, and lacquered leather, revealing a wardrobe sculpted around contradiction. Bodies curve and clash in visceral unison, driven by instinct and impulse. A tribute to uncompromising self-expression, the collection evokes themes of gender, identity, and idealism through a lens of poetic rebellion and timeless provocation.

Kent & Curwen’s AW25 campaign draws from the whimsical spirit of British folklore, echoing the escapist worlds imagined by C.S. Lewis. Set within the storied grounds of the Château de Bagatelle, the collection explores an atmosphere where nostalgia meets curiosity, and the promise of shared adventures stirs beneath crisp tailoring and collegiate charm. A poetic nod to English heritage blends refinement with quiet eccentricity, revealing tradition reimagined through a youthful, wide-eyed lens.

Within the shaded corners of the Bois de Boulogne, layers of texture and tone evoke secrets waiting to be uncovered, pieces steeped in romanticism yet grounded in purpose. Classic silhouettes are elevated by gentle whimsy, suggesting a wardrobe ready for discovery, delight, and camaraderie. Past and present entwine as the collection celebrates the art of dressing with intention, and the timeless thrill of stepping into the unknown.

Fashion Collaborations A/W 25

Marc Jacobs unveils ‘JOY’, a dynamic series of artist collaborations with David Shrigley, Derrick Adams, and Hattie Stewart, transforming signature styles into vivid expressions of wearable art. Across apparel, accessories, and jewellery, the collection merges fashion with satire, rhythm, and surreal optimism. Shrigley injects offbeat humour and absurdity, Adams celebrates movement and colour through bold geometries, while Stewart offers pop-infused florals and dreamlike motifs. Each capsule redefines the brand’s visual codes with a sense of play, rebellion, and celebration.

The creative energy expands into a curated line of limited-edition lifestyle pieces, spanning iconic names such as Converse, Crayola, Moleskine, and Gibson. Unexpected items, from SHUT skateboards and Brompton bikes to Barbie dolls, are reinterpreted through the lens of each artist, offering joyful reinvention beyond the wardrobe. A special pet accessories collaboration with Maxbone adds a final flourish to a project grounded in self-expression, creativity, and cultural crossover.

Moncler Genius joins forces with A$AP Rocky for a debut collection merging vintage skiwear with streetwear rebellion. A bold palette of lava red, electric indigo, emerald, black, and white energises modular silhouettes, with standout pieces featuring ‘Don’t Be Dumb’ graphics taken from Rocky’s upcoming album, AWGE branding, and technical layering.

Utility and attitude collide in fleece, ripstop, and nylon constructions shaped into sculptural outerwear and hybrid separates. Designs balance function with impact; multi-layered trousers, oversized puffers, and contrast-fastened details form a uniform rooted in mobility and expression. Referencing both Moncler’s alpine DNA and Rocky’s genre-defying style, the collection delivers a new Genius chapter built on cultural crossover and fearless reinvention.

Nike and Jacquemus join forces to reimagine the iconic Moon Shoe, marking its first-ever revival since the original handcrafted design by Bill Bowerman. Presented in a campaign led by actor Nicholas Chavez, the collaboration fuses athletic legacy with refined minimalism.

The updated silhouette draws from the fluid grace of ballet while remaining grounded in Nike’s performance-driven roots. Streamlined and sculptural, the design reflects a balance of form and function, honouring innovation through a modern lens.

FW25 introduces the Cloudsolo, the first co-designed sneaker from Loewe and On. Merging Spanish craftsmanship with Swiss innovation, the shoe features a single CloudTec® element, Helion™ superfoam midsole, and flexible Speedboard. Semi-translucent mesh uppers, elastic speed laces, and a pebble toggle reflect joint design codes. Colourways include Turquoise, Orange, Lime Green, and muted tones. The Cloudtilt returns in Denim Grey and Denim Blue.

The ready-to-wear line focuses on performance and urban adaptability. Seamless base layers, flocked anoraks, engineered stripes, and cargo styles anchor the range. A campaign by Ryan McGinley, directed by Bleunuit and choreographed by MazelFreten, captures movement across city landscapes. Dance, fashion, and function collide; celebrating motion, resilience, and modern life.

September marks a decade of the original and longest-running influencer collaboration: Missoma × Lucy Williams. A new collection blending minimalist design with expert craftsmanship. Signature styles return with evolved forms, including the Entwine and Arco, alongside fresh interpretations of Tennis pieces in gold, silver, and, for the first time, 14ct solid gold with diamonds.

The partnership’s strength lies in creative synergy, loyalty, and authenticity. Highlights include mixed-metal combinations, sculptural statement earrings, and the standout Torque Knot Necklace. A tribute to enduring style and collaboration, the collection continues to reflect both Missoma’s identity and Lucy Williams’ refined aesthetic.

A/W 25 Collections

Maison Margiela unveils the AW25 Avant-Première Collection through painterly portraits of Miley Cyrus by Paolo Roversi. The campaign explores themes of preservation and memory, with garments presented as lived-in artefacts shaped by wear, care, and time. Developed in the Maison’s Artisanal atelier, the collection embraces techniques of mending, fading, and repurposing, celebrating garments passed down and continuously restored.

Miley Cyrus wears iconic silhouettes including deconstructed tailoring, second-skin bodies, the reimagined 5AC bag, and signature Tabi boots. Select images feature the artist in white body paint, a reference to the Maison’s bianchetto technique introduced in 1989. Originally applied to studio furniture, the method transforms surfaces into blank canvases, revealing form through erasure and echoing the collection’s focus on legacy, transformation, and essence.

Marking a decade and a half of the fashion house, David Koma AW25 collection presents a heightened interpretation of established design signatures. Strong couture influences shape the offering, drawing from mid-century silhouettes with a renewed focus on volume, texture, and architectural detail. Elevated waistlines, sculptural hips, and daring fabric juxtapositions underscore the brand’s continued exploration of structure and silhouette. Core elements such as transparency and precision tailoring evolve through new techniques, while classic shapes are reimagined with bold material choices, ranging from sheer tulle to supple leather and crinkle taffeta.

Sequins and feathers take centre stage through innovative placements and transformations. Polka dot motifs return in metallic and matte interpretations, layered into corseted shapes or embroidered onto motion-enhancing fringe. Oversized bows and dramatic embellishments echo regal themes, nodding to British heritage through gemstone detailing and sculptural tailoring. A monochrome palette dominates, punctuated by an intense Klein blue, grounding the collection in clarity and confidence. The result is a statement of progression, rooted in legacy, designed for impact.

The FW25 Revive collection from Caroline Svedbom Jewellery celebrates renewal, rebirth, and transformation. Inspired by nature’s power to regenerate, it combines sustainable craftsmanship with timeless elegance. Created for women who embrace conscious living without compromising on style, the collection offers enduring pieces that reflect strength, confidence, and grace.

Central to the collection is ReCreated Dark Jonquil, the brand’s most sustainable crystal made from repurposed fragments. Featuring bold necklaces, radiant statement earrings, and vibrant colours, Revive embodies a harmonious blend of glamour and responsibility, proving that true beauty comes from both design and ethical creation.

New Collection

Inspired by a movement toward feeling good inside and out, the sloggi FREE Evolve range introduces ultra-stretchy, lightweight bodywear designed for comfort and confidence. Smooth, breathable micro modal fabric (Lenzing licensed and GRS certified) forms the base of mix-and-match pieces available in both solid and lace finishes. A 2-sizes-fits-most system offers flexibility across body types.

Core styles include Padded and Push-up Bras, reversible Tops, Mini, Hipster and String briefs, plus layering pieces such as the Cyclist, Spaghetti Top, Reversible Tank, and Body. Offered in seasonal Blue Sapphire and classic shades of Black, Silk White, and Date Night Pink, the collection redefines ease, movement, and versatility.
