After the collaboration with Miu Miu, MyTheresa will be launching another capsule collection on Wednesday, the 17th of May. This time, the luxury online shop will make it happen with Milanese based brand Off-White, currently one of the most hyped streetwear labels out there. Founder and creative director of the it-label, Virgil Abloh, has designed an eight-piece collection exclusively for MyTheresa. Virgil Abloh has been equipping the fashion industry with his signature logo-hoodies – there is hardly a street-style gallery that does not comprise at least one Off-White-Look. The collection for MyTheresa.com exhibits the typical tailoring of Off-White. It features feminine pieces like flowing silk blouses as well as items…

F&W Call for Color at Vivetta and Angel Chen.
If all the color associations you get for the fall-winter season are black, grey and everything in between, get ready to be surprised. Vivetta and Angel Chen are among the brands giving a different perspective and we are glad to share some color-infused inspiration with you after having attended the shows. At Vivetta colors were essential as the primary inspiration for the collection was the 1940s circus. The theme was made obvious in every possible way: from the embroideries depicting all kinds of performers you can imagine on the arena to “Pierrot” heels to curtain-inspired velvet garments and rope belts. There was leopard printed fur, vinyl boots and velvet bringing…

Winter wonderland at Moncler Gamme Bleu show
Once you entered into the Moncler showroom, you could not but be amazed by the venue: a mountain landscape with trees covered in snow. A deem blue light added that touch of mystery and wonder that reigns in the wood. As the show began, snow started falling down from the roof as a party of men dressed in a jump suit entirely covered with hooks and ropes, outlined the catwalk. On the notes of a touching music, the models slowly walked across the snow showing the new Gamme Bleu collection: the main features worn by everyone were a cap and a pair of rounded, mirror goggles, a huge backpack that…

Tod’s presentation: an expression of Italian patronage.
Imagine you are in front of a gate. Imagine you pass through this gate and walk on the gravel along a path surrounded by grass and trees. Then, you see a marvellous garden, a peaceful environment with a pool in the middle. You walk up the steps of the entrance. Hickory and rosewood shine in all their warming cosiness in this art deco space. You turn left. You find yourself in a library, characterised by a stucco ceiling and diamond shaped decorations. You pass through it and arrive in a winter garden, featuring a travertine, green marble floors and glass walls. You go back to the entrance, cross the eighteen…

Tiffany & Co. dedicates its Iconic Heart to Italy
Since 1837, Tiffany & Co.’s masterpieces dictate and celebrate the greatest love stories of the world with a wealthy tradition to be discovered, full of legendary jewels and important moments. The founder Charles Lewis Tiffany had a constant passion for diamonds. Through the years, the company has shown the world diamonds of a spectacular brilliance and a selection of precious stones never seen before.

Although Tiffany is famous for the magic and theatricality of its sparkling shop windows, there is another value…

Stella McCartney & her first Menswear Collection
Stella McCartney’s stock-in-trade is offering up pieces that strike the right balance between being effortless to wear, but actually additive to one’s wardrobe. There’s often a tomboyish influence that makes her women’s line always seem just a bit cooler than the rest on the fashion block. It wasn’t a total surprise that she announced this summer that she was working on a menswear collection. The first sneak peek of McCartney’s new line was seen at the Spring/Summer 2017 fashion show in Paris last month, when her husband Alasdhair Willis wore a four-button double-breasted jacket and matching trousers. The first impression conveyed the mood of her menswear: streamlined, uncomplicated, and…

“Oshadi” = the Essence of Nature
I meet Matteo Capetti at 18.30 in Corso Como. We both come from a long and stressful day at work. As two interns trying to find a balance between work and social life we agree to have a drink at a bar nearby and chat about his capsule show – displaying from the 4th to the 6th of March at Tapis Rouge, Paris. xWe order some fancy alcohol and I apologies because I’m starving and I basically devour the chips that come with our cocktails. I explain him how a mutual friend talked me into meeting him and assured me that this story is worth listening to and writing about, and so…

Yeezy Season 1 is Here
Kanye West has taken the fashion industry by storm. His first collection, Yeezy Season 1, is about to release in stores around the globe and excitement surrounding the launch is high. He debuted his second collection, Yeezy Season 2, during a surprise fashion show at New York Fashion Week. With the likes of Anna Wintour in attendance, Bella Hadid modeling, and West’s entourage there to show support, the star studded show was promising. The military themed show and the clothing itself were both very different from what we generally see at fashion shows. The new collection, similar to the first, featured a minimal esthetic with layered looks, distressed fabrics,…
