KVRT STVFF Forbidden
* 1950s Twist on Modern Chic

written Sarah Arendts

The evocative charm of the 1950s was a period marked by rebellion, sensuality, and an undeniable empowerment that simmered beneath the surface. This era, with its powerful characters and bold styles, finds new life in KVRT STVFF’s audacious collection, FORBIDDEN.

Melding the past with the present, FORBIDDEN is KVRT STVFF's ode to the empowering vibes of the '50s, reimagined for the contemporary sartorial scene. Through a stark yet elegantly simple palette of black and off-white, the collection delivers a visual treat. It features progressive interpretations of volume using alternative leather and regenerated nylon, complemented by meticulous metal detailing that adds a touch of modern edge to each piece.

But this collection doesn't just stop at reviving an era. Venturing into fresh territory, KVRT STVFF introduces outerwear for the first time, marking an evolution in the brand’s trajectory. This new dimension aligns perfectly with their meticulous curation. Through a mix of digital and analog photography, FORBIDDEN's presentation mirrors the brand's ethos: a harmonious blend of nostalgia, modernity, sensuality, and power.

One might say the FORBIDDEN collection is not just clothing – it's a revolution. A revolution against norms, against fleeting trends. It champions the timeless, underscores natural beauty, and daringly pushes against conventional representations of sensuality.

Diving deeper into the essence of KVRT STVFF, it's easy to recognize why this collection stands out. Established in 2018, the brand has been steadily charting a course that challenges the norm. With collections ranging from sportswear to underwear, they have consistently blurred the boundaries of where fashion ends and functionality begins. Their impeccable in-house prototyping at the KVRT STVDIO stands as testament to their unwavering commitment to quality.

But more than the materials and designs, KVRT STVFF has been a movement, a culture. It's about feeling empowered in one’s skin, and their zero-tolerance stance against shame reflects this. Each piece they craft is a shout-out to individuals everywhere, encouraging them to embrace their strength, ambitions, and uniqueness.

* RHYTHM CHECK

written Amanda Mortenson

As the chill of autumn descends and the stark beauty of winter looms, ISSEY MIYAKE's "The Square and Beyond" emerges, wrapping the season in layers of innovation. Drawing from the artistic realm's pervasive square — be it a canvas, musical score, or fabric swatch — this collection unfurls an intricate dance of form and imagination.

At the forefront is the "RHYTHM CHECK" series, now shimmering amidst the curated racks of elite boutiques. The unassuming check pattern, often lost amidst its flamboyant counterparts, is reinvigorated under MIYAKE’s touch.

It pulsates with life, reminiscent of a metronome's consistent beat or the rhythmic thumping of a heart. But the true allure lies in its tactile realm. Through the innovative use of heat-shrinking yarn woven into a precise grid, each piece undergoes a captivating transformation. Born oversized, they are baptized in hot water, emerging with a mesmerizing three-dimensional allure.

The bustling streets of cosmopolitan London, as captured by the renowned photographer piczo, paint the perfect backdrop for this sartorial symphony.

His portraits, radiant with individuals draped in the RHYTHM CHECK series, meld seamlessly with London's urban fabric, creating a visual narrative where tradition dances gracefully with modernity.

As the digital age accelerates, casting fleeting trends in its wake, Ormonde Jayne London emerges from the haze. It's more than a brand; it's a siren song, drawing you into a journey where every note unfolds a chapter, narrating a story drenched in evocative fragrances.

Ormonde Jayne introduced "ARABESQUE" to its iconic "Four Corners of the Earth" collection, promising an odyssey not just for the senses but for the soul.

Drawing inspiration from the enigmatic wonders of the Middle East, "ARABESQUE" is more than just a scent; it's an experience. The fragrance mirrors the intricate designs found in Islamic art, weaving an intricate tapestry of flowers, fruits, and woods. It's a homage, a love letter, and an open invitation to explore the lands where tradition and modernity coexist in harmonious rhythm.

As you uncap the bottle, you're greeted with a top note that is nothing short of vivacious. The zesty burst of blackcurrant dances gracefully with the sun-soaked Italian bergamot. Add a hint of the fieriness of black pepper, and you have an opening that is as effervescent as it is evocative. But just as in any narrative worth its salt, there's an unexpected twist – the whisper of saffron, adding depth and allure.

The heart of the fragrance blooms like a midnight desert flower, delicate yet profound. Jasmine and rose absolutes unfurl, painting the air with their rich, intoxicating sweetness. Their presence is an olfactory ballet, seamlessly choreographed to evoke a deep sense of well-being and serenity.

But, like the mysterious tales of Scheherazade, the story doesn’t end there. Delving deeper, the base reveals a symphony of scents that anchor the entire experience. The velvety musk, the earthy moss, the robust patchouli, and the enigmatic Oudh come together to form a foundation as timeless as the tales of the Arabian Nights themselves.

In the words of the perfumers themselves, "ARABESQUE" is sultry, intricate, and mesmerising. This fragrance doesn't merely sit on the skin; it melds with it, becoming an intimate part of one's narrative. Belonging to the Amberesque/Floral fragrance family, this scent is a testament to Ormonde Jayne London's legacy of crafting fragrances that aren't just remembered but revered.

Are you ready to journey through the deserts, to dance under the starry night, and to be enchanted by tales as old as time? "ARABESQUE" isn't just a fragrance; it's an adventure waiting to be had.

Enzo Lefort: Turned Louis Vuitton Icon Paris 2024

*New Ambassador
Enzo Lefort x LVHM
The Maverick Fencer Turned Louis Vuitton Icon for Paris 2024

written Sarah Arendts

In the realm of unexpected yet perfectly harmonious collabs, the world of high fashion and elite sports may seem oceans apart. But Louis Vuitton, never one to shy away from the avant-garde, has bridged this gap with élan. Recently, they heralded the arrival of five-time World Champion swimmer, Léon Marchand, as a House Ambassador, painting the prelude to their latest announcement: Enzo Lefort, the French fencing virtuoso, now joins Marchand in this elite assembly, ahead of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Enzo isn't just any athlete. This French fencer, a sparkling gem from the sun-soaked landscapes of Guadeloupe, is setting ablaze expectations for the Paris 2024 Olympics. Drenched in accolades — from clinching gold in team foil at Tokyo 2021, shining silver in Rio 2016, to reigning supreme twice as the individual world champion in 2019 and 2022 — Enzo’s star is only ascending. When he's not electrifying global audiences with his audacious moves and foil finesse, he's crafting a legacy. Come Paris 2024, the 32-year-old maestro will be brandishing his foil for France for the fourth spell.

Enzo, with his relentless drive and unparalleled exactitude, mirrors the ethos of Louis Vuitton. Each swipe of his blade, each moment of his balletic dance in the fencing arena, speaks to the craftsmanship and intent LV embeds in every stitch. This bond is more than just ambassadorship; it’s a celebration of shared values.

The intricate details of the symphony between Paris 2024 and the LVMH empire are set to unravel as we inch closer to the opening ceremony on 26 July 2024.

Enzo Lefort for LVMH ATHLETES PARIS 2023

The games are about to be not just contested, but also stylishly adorned. Enzo Lefort is not just an artisan of all victories, as LV fondly dubs him, but also the embodiment of a movement where worlds collide, producing something transcendently beautiful.

Von Köck Diamond Evolution
* From Raw Gem to Handcrafted Icon

written Amanda Mortenson

Amidst the shimmering allure of diamonds as symbols of flawless beauty and timeless grace, Vienna's luxury jeweler, Von Köck, elevates this admiration to unparalleled heights.

Moving beyond the globally accepted 4Cs—carat, cut, clarity, and color—this esteemed jewelry expert thoroughly scrutinizes each diamond for both exceptional quality and ethical sourcing. Once approved, the unblemished gemstone is entrusted to master artisans, where it transforms into a breathtaking masterpiece.

VON KÖCK
Vienna Luxury Jeweler

But what truly sets Von Köck apart is their thematic collections. In the Navette Collection, the spotlight is on the eponymously named Navette diamond. Its elongated, boat-hull-like cut serves as a canvas for Von Köck's artisans, who infuse a touch of subtle extravagance into the classical silhouette. The resulting pieces, including the statement choker adorned with 194 Navette diamonds set in white gold, capture the imagination and promise to dazzle at any high-profile soirée.

Not to be outdone, the Paraiba Collection exudes raw, magnetic allure. Centered around the rare Paraiba Tourmaline, whose vibrant turquoise to green shades pop dramatically against cool white gold, this collection is an irresistible siren's call for the discerning. Whether it's the earrings' exquisite blend of 26 green and blue Paraiba tourmalines or the rings that showcase the gem's electrifying luminance, every piece feels like a plunge into a turquoise lagoon or a deep azure ocean.

In contrast, the Rainbow Collection offers a burst of joy with its effervescent play on colors. Embracing the full spectrum of the rainbow, this collection primarily uses perfectly graded sapphires to celebrate life's vibrant hues. From earrings that dance with light and color to rings that narrate a tale of vivacity and contemporary aesthetics, there's a promise of a pot of gold at the end of this rainbow.

Taking inspiration from one of Vienna's iconic landmarks, the Schönbrunn Collection is a tribute to the 270-year-old Tiergarten Schönbrunn. Melding 18-karat gold with a bevy of precious stones, the collection reflects the majesty of both marine and terrestrial creatures. Whether it's the Firefish brooch-pendant alive with diamonds, sapphires, and rubies, or the rings capturing the essence of giraffes and zebras, the designs ooze meticulous attention to detail and undeniable sophistication.

Von Köck is not just about selling jewelry; it's about narrating tales of tradition coupled with innovation. Nestled in Vienna's prestigious Graben and helmed by the second-generation Felix Köck, the brand has cemented its place among Austria's premier jewelers. Their philosophy? A perfect blend of honoring cultural heritage while tuning into the wishes of their patrons.

For Von Köck, jewelry-making transcends mere craft; it's an ongoing journey "From Generation to Perfection."

Louis Vuitton's Ode to Parisian Panache
* 4 Muses, 4 Tales, One City

written Sarah Arendts

Whispers of style traverse the cobblestones of Paris, as Louis Vuitton reimagines modern femininity in its latest Women’s Fashion campaign.

Four muses, four tales, one city; the fashion narrative unfolds through the eyes of House Ambassadors Deepika Padukone, Hoyeon, Léa Seydoux, and silver screen sensation, Elaine Zhong.

Louis Vuitton’s newly unveiled campaign is more than just couture; it's a curated collision of attitude, adventure, and authenticity. Channeling an avant-garde LE MILE aura, this campaign celebrates independent women carving their own path through the heart of Paris. The capital's iconic cityscape becomes their canvas, painted with individualistic strokes of style, spirit, and sophistication.

Ethan James Green, the visionary behind the lens, captures ethereal moments against emblematic Parisian backdrops. Quentin Saunier’s filmic touch further brings to life the zeitgeist of modern femininity.

Picture this: Hoyeon, poised with her GO-14 bag, leaning against a bicycle on the illustrious Pont Alexandre III. Or visualize Deepika Padukone, standing regally atop the Palais Galliera, the Eiffel Tower elegantly photobombing in the background. Her GO-14, playfully clashing yet blending with the backdrop, becomes a symbol - evoking both the grandeur of Paris’s architectural marvel and the genius of Louis Vuitton’s design.

Nicolas Ghesquière, the mastermind and Artistic Director of Women’s Collections, introduces the GO-14 as a homage to Louis Vuitton's heritage. This iconic piece, inspired by malletage—the exquisite cross-hatched lining of Louis Vuitton trunks—echoes the artistry and craftsmanship synonymous with the brand.

Yet, the fashion tale doesn’t end there. The enchanting Léa Seydoux, behind the wheel, is spotted meandering through the Rue Galliera, her Capucines bag securely by her side. Meanwhile, Elaine Zhong’s pristine white version of this feminine classic becomes her companion amidst the palatial allure of the Palais Galliera courtyard.

The Capucines bag, a piece with history deeply sewn into its threads, is a nod to the maison's legacy. Born from Louis Vuitton’s inaugural store on Rue Neuve-des-Capucines in 1854, its seemingly simplistic design belies a rich tapestry of complexity and craftsmanship.

As the narrative of style evolves, Louis Vuitton remains a timeless testament to luxury, legacy, and the eternal allure of the City of Lights.

A Decade of Crafting Geometric Elegance in Minimalist Jewellery

written Amanda Mortenson

In a world awash with excess and extravagance, the jewellery designs of Sofia Beilharz emerge as an elegant oasis of minimalism. Based in Düsseldorf, Germany, Sofia Beilharz celebrated the 10th anniversary of her brand in August 2023, marking a decade of carving a unique niche in the high-end jewellery landscape.

Geometry isn't just an afterthought or a source of inspiration for Sofia Beilharz—it's the guiding philosophy that shapes her entire design ethos. Spheres, circles, lines, and other elementary forms are more than mere visual elements; they are central to both the form and function of each piece.

SOFIA BEILHARZ

seen by Richard DANSOU

What truly elevates Sofia Beilharz's creations is her meticulous focus on perceptual elements like light and shadow. By deftly adding holes, cuts, and curvature to these basic geometric shapes, she manipulates their surfaces to create intricate optical effects. These edits do more than simply add aesthetic value; they make each piece appear more 'alive,' interacting subtly with its environment.

Sofia Beilharz's minimalist approach adheres to the principle that less is more. By stripping away unnecessary embellishments, she aims to offer her clientele both individuality and exclusiveness without sacrificing the timeless elegance that defines her brand. "In an age where everything is so much, my designs offer a moment of quiet and calm," Sofia Beilharz often says, encapsulating the ethos of her brand.

What's more, Sofia Beilharz’s commitment to local craftsmanship provides an added layer of authenticity and quality to her work. Every piece is crafted in her studio in Düsseldorf, and she collaborates exclusively with German-based workshops and companies. This localized production not only allows for stringent quality control but also enables Sofia Beilharz to offer highly personalized, custom designs. From the first conversation with a client in her studio to the intricate stages of design and production, Sofia Beilharz ensures that each piece is a labor of love and an embodiment of her design philosophy.

As Sofia Beilharz's brand crosses the decade milestone, it stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of minimalistic, well-crafted luxury. Here's to many more years of geometric elegance, individual expression, and impeccably crafted jewellery that promises to captivate the discerning eye.

ISSEY MIYAKE SS 2024 Vision
Embracing the Ethereal

written Sarah Arendts

Floating ethereally through the famed halls of Césure in Paris, ISSEY MIYAKE’s SPRING SUMMER 2024 COLLECTION, Grasping the Formless, unveiled a powerful manifesto of fashion's limitless potential.

The concept? To epitomize intangible elements from nature - the enigmatic wind and capricious light - and mold them into wearable pieces that almost breathe with life.

Driven by the ethereal, Miyake’s new aesthetic engages deeply with fluidity, eschewing the traditional rigidity of couture. The line evokes a feeling, a presence, a connection with nature, and most strikingly, an understanding between fabric and wearer. It’s less about creating a statement and more about discovering oneself through the very clothes you adorn.

Upon entering Césure, the audience was immediately transfixed by an intricate installation conceptualized by Yoshihisa Tanaka. Pleated fragments of washi paper – crafted from organic fibers – hung suspended in mid-air, moving and contorting, symbolizing the delicate dance between cloth and its wearer. As ICTUS's haunting score resonated through the venue, performers seamlessly wove through the installation, embodying the relationship between humanity, clothing, and nature, choreographed to perfection by Némo Flouret.

In the stunning display that was ISSEY MIYAKE’s collection, several series emerged, each illuminating a unique facet of Miyake's genius. AMBIGUOUS, a sophisticated knit series, tantalizingly played between concealment and revelation. It presented soft drapes juxtaposed with form-hugging ribbed back panels, all the while respecting the silhouette and the integrity of the high twist cotton yarn. Next, we were led to imagine a flag pirouetting in the sky with TWINING. This woven series epitomized lightness and structure, employing a weaving technique that left nearly invisible gaps, giving birth to a voluminous texture that still retained an ethereal weightlessness. Then came LIGHT LEAK, a striking print series. Deliberate film exposures morphed into minimalist silhouette designs, with the micro particulars of the original photographs ever-present, each print standing as a faithful homage to its origin. The essence of adaptability was beautifully captured in ENVELOPING and TWISTED.

Woven meticulously with blends of Japanese washi paper, these pieces moved gracefully with the wearer, crafting bespoke silhouettes and textures reminiscent of a second skin. FIXED IN TIME made a statement, presenting motion as though it was trapped in a timeless vortex. The bold silhouettes, adorned with folds and angles, appeared as if they were frozen mid-twirl, a feat achieved using lightweight, stretchy materials that showcased the undeniable power of dynamics. The parade of innovation culminated with SHAPED MEMBRANE. This series, a veritable celebration of texture and form, boasted exaggerated silhouettes. Merging volume with unrivaled comfort, it was clear that every piece was designed to be a joy to wear.

he grand finale was the unveiling of a footwear collaboration with New Balance – the ISSEY MIYAKE x New Balance MT10O, staying true to the "barefoot mobility" concept. Its color palette, mirroring the collection's theme, with the signature lightweight and barefoot feel, was a fitting ode to Satoshi Kondo’s design genius.

Issey Miyake’s SS 2024 is about connecting with the world, understanding the formless, and giving it form. Fashion, when done right, is not just art; it’s a transcendent experience.

Christian Louboutin Spring/Summer 2024
A Digital-Real Fusion at The Loubi Show

written Sarah Arendts

Nestled within Paris's historical heart on September 28th, the Grand Amphitheatre of La Sorbonne pulsated with fervent anticipation. The Loubi Show beckoned, marking Christian Louboutin's foray into the harmonious blend of reality and virtuality for the Spring-Summer 2024 showcase.

Embracing the synergy between iconic design and state-of-the-art technology, Louboutin enlisted the visionary genius of Belgian-Moroccan choreographer, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui. Together, they choreographed a mesmerizing dance of light, shadow, and fluid movement that transcended the traditional ramp.

But the spectacle didn't end there. German-Persian digital artist, Tobias Gremmler, amplified the narrative with virtual avatars that mirrored Louboutin's emblematic Red Sole. These avatars, emerging from kinetic screens, wove an intricate dance with the live performers. The performance's pièce de résistance was undoubtedly the trailblazing Viktoria Modesta.

Her evocative presence, coupled with Louboutin-crafted custom shoes and her signature spike prosthetic, added layers of depth to an already multi-dimensional presentation.

Sixteen adept dancers, their silhouettes juxtaposed against autonomous LED walls by Aumovis, enhanced the visual feast. Guided by algorithmic genius, they moved in harmony, presenting a symphony of human and machine.

A touching Arabic love poem, paying homage to Louboutin's Egyptian roots, provided the evening's soulful soundtrack. Live piano and the haunting tones of the Cristal Baschet musical instrument enriched this auditory journey.

As the performance culminated, guests transitioned to the Grand Salon. Here, Louboutin's Spring/Summer 2024 collection levitated within crimson niches, set against chrome mirrored boxes. This gallery, reflecting infinite optical illusions, captured the essence of Louboutin's ethos: ethereal beauty grounded in tangible luxury.

Soft pastels, radiant florals, sparkling crystals—Louboutin's 2024 line promises unparalleled elegance and innovation. Whether it's the MISS JANE ballerina in shimmering laminato leather, the exquisite GINKO pumps adorned with gold Ginko leaf motifs, or the glamorous CONDORA QUEEN PLUME festooned with feathers and strass, each piece is a celebration of artistry.

Loro Piana S/S 2024
Where Italian Craft Meets Japanese Ethos

written Amanda Mortenson

Journeying through the crossroads of culture and craftsmanship, Loro Piana's Spring/Summer 2024 collection paints a story where Italian luxury waltzes with Japanese elegance. Unveiling both men's and women's lines, the brand weaves a tale of shared values – excellence, harmony with nature, and a powerful humbleness that radiates rather than roars.

Loro Piana, this season, explores the depth of its affinity with Japan, a nation celebrated for its artisanship and cultural richness. The collections seek to mirror these shared values, encapsulating the Loro Piana man and woman's essence: active in spirit, lovers of beauty, free and streamlined.

Soft silhouettes dominate, exuding calm elegance, synonymous with the serenity found in a Japanese Zen garden. Collarless coats and blousons embrace the body, merging style and solace. The men's collection introduces workwear-inspired denim, resonating with pragmatism. Blazers and trousers explore fuller volumes, while the women's collection dances with flowing dresses and kimono-esque jackets. A new ease is introduced with bermuda shorts becoming central to the male ensemble, and jumpers paired with collarless anorak shirts present a novel appearance in prints.

The collection's chromatic journey unveils with the understated elegance of Bamboo, characterized by its dark, muted hues. It then glides into Shibusa's realm, where the ordinary transforms into extraordinary with reinterpretations of denim and suiting. The tale continues with Sakura's light colors, precise shapes, and linens, culminating in the striking block prints of Kanji.

Blending classic and contemporary, the color palette oscillates between Deep Blue, Melange Gray, and Navy Blue, fading to Black. These shades interplay with lighter hues like Nougat and Sencha Green, rendered beautifully through materials like cashmere linen and cotton.

Accessories aren't left behind. Men get a touch of sophistication with tennis walk shoes, sturdy loafers, and round-toed slippers, while women can bask in the elegance of new bags, totes, and jewelry. The collection also introduces exclusive black leather pouches, enriching the accessories offering.

A testament to the brand's versatility and the infinite possibilities that arise from exploring affinities, this collection is where timeless Italian craftsmanship finds its reflection in the soulful depth of Japanese aesthetics.

A Whimsical Journey on Air

written Sarah Arendts

Leaning into the terraces of a sun-kissed Riviera or coasting through the bustling streets of Marrakech, there's an ephemeral touch to Emporio Armani’s Spring/Summer 2024 collection – like a whispered secret caught in the wind, almost too soft to hear but impossible to ignore. Evoking memories from a dreamlike voyage, 'Like a Breeze' draws upon the spirit of summer, not as a season, but as an eternal state of being.

Dressing for the season is no longer a mere response to weather; it is a reflection of our spirit’s lightness, an ode to our wanderlust, to places touched and emotions felt. Taking a page from the nomad’s diary, the collection hints at destinations unknown, as though each piece has been foraged during a sunlit sojourn, caught in mid-air, only to be woven into a story of ethereal elegance.

The fabrics' very essence embodies the air's weightlessness – an intriguing dance of metallics and iridescence – with materials so soft that they might be mistaken for gossamer. And yet, these pieces are rich, lavishly embroidered but feeling as impalpable as a veil draped over a midnight moon.

Emporio Armani’s 2024 vision brings the body into the limelight, not as an object, but as a canvas for its ethereal art. Fluid jackets contour the bust, paying homage to the feminine silhouette, while crop tops and shorts offer tantalizing glimpses of skin. This delicate balance of show and tell is masterfully veiled by transparent pictorial fabrics, as if capturing a painting in motion. With every step, long, rhythmical skirts flutter, dancing to a silent tune that only the wind knows.

The style is effortlessly chic and instantaneously captivating, with a modern aesthetic that’s as 'snappy' as the click of a photographer's shutter. Flat shoes ground the collection, punctuated by small hats and foulards that whisk us back to an era where timeless style was paramount. Bags, however, are a paradox: some so vast they seem to carry secrets of a thousand tales, while others are minimalist – guardians of only the most precious essentials.

Emporio Armani
Spring/Summer 2024

A painterly palette graces the collection, commencing with golden beiges that glow like the last kiss of a setting sun. This warmth is contrasted by the profoundness of black, evoking the mystery of a moonless night. From there, the journey cools into silver, chalk, and mineral greys, only to be electrified by the deep blues of lapis lazuli and enriched by grape's depth. Unexpected jolts of chartreuse play peek-a-boo, culminating into the passionate embrace of rose bloom.

This collection is about feeling. It’s a summons to all, to not just wear, but to wander, to explore, to dream. With Emporio Armani, next summer, we aren’t just dressing the body, but the soul, allowing it to drift, wherever the wind may lead.

VALENTINO Black Tie
Redefining Rebellion & Beauty with Kaia Gerber

written Sarah Arendts

Dive deep into the essence of BLACK TIE, and you find not just a code but a proclamation. A vibrant refutation of established norms and a flirtatious wink at tradition.

VALENTINO, with its latest advertising campaign, is here to declare: norms are out, authenticity is in.

Imagine this: Kaia Gerber, a name that has become synonymous with audacious fashion choices and an undying spark, stands at the heart of this campaign. Photographed by the illustrious Steven Meisel within the grand walls of the Oheka Castle in New York, the imagery whispers tales of punk, beauty, and youth. But beyond this compelling facade, lies an intimate portrayal — the intersection of softness with brazen individuality.

Valentino’s Creative Director, Pierpaolo Piccioli, crafts this narrative, not from the stringent directives of beauty but from a delicate equilibrium. Beauty, as he sees it, is untouched by arbitrary constructs or ossified rules. Instead, it finds its roots in harmony, flowing seamlessly, making waves and crafting stories.

Piccioli's modernized vision resonates with Valentino's iconic elements, from the intricately detailed studs to the majestic roses. They swirl, dance, and juxtapose against the classic, illustrating a lush tale of opulence and grandiosity.

Yet, at the epicenter of it all is an identity. The Valentino Black Tie Advertising Campaign serves as a canvas, showcasing the fiery beauty and confidence of an individual like Kaia who rewrites the rules, choosing her own narrative over dated conventions. Wearing her rebellion like a badge, she challenges, she defies, and in doing so, paves a path for many.

The black tie — an emblem of age-old formalities and traditionally masculine authority — undergoes a metamorphosis. It sheds its old skin, transitioning towards a future of inclusivity and uninhibited self-expression. Here, it stands not just for elegance and authority but heralds a fresh era where diverse voices converge and individual choices reign supreme.

MOEBE's Ceramic Table Lamp and Tube Pendant

written Sarah Arendts

In the pulsating heart of Copenhagen, on the serene island of Amager, lies a workshop where creation meets purpose, and design meets sustainability.

This is the home of MOEBE, a design studio formed in 2014 by architects Martin de Neergard Christensen, Nicholas Oldroyd, and cabinet maker Anders Thams. Their overarching philosophy? Simple, but profound: consciously made furniture and lifestyle objects with great details, designed to last a lifetime.

In today's age of fleeting fashion and planned obsolescence, MOEBE stands as a beacon of hope. Their mantra emphasizes on the need for 'less'. Less noise, less clutter, and certainly less waste. They believe in creating room to breathe and cherishing the small everyday moments that render meaning to our lives. Their designs are a celebration of this philosophy, stripped of all that's unnecessary, embodying pure functionality, purpose, and a keen sense of aesthetics.

We turn our attention to two of their recent creations that exemplify this ethos: the Ceramic Table Lamp and the Tube Pendant.

MOEBE
Ceramic Table Lamp

Ceramic Table Lamp — A Symphony of Porcelain & Light

At first glance, the Ceramic Table Lamp might seem like just another lamp, but dig deeper, and you'll realize its genius. Unlike traditional lampshades that offer limited adjustability, MOEBE’s version comes with a completely separate porcelain piece. This unique design grants the user full flexibility — pivot up, down, left, or right, shining light precisely where it's needed.

Each lamp is a masterpiece, handcrafted in Portugal. The raw, unglazed ceramic is infused with colour pigment right into the porcelain, ensuring that no two lamps are the same. But what truly stands out about this lamp is its modular design. In line with MOEBE's 'Right to repair' principle, the lamp is component-based. So, if a part malfunctions, simply replace it without discarding the entire product.

Its aesthetic beauty, combined with its functional versatility, makes the Ceramic Table Lamp not just a lighting solution, but a sculptural adornment for your space.

MOEBE
Tube Pendant

Tube Pendant — The Alchemy of Aluminium & Paper

MOEBE's Tube Pendant is a revelation in lighting design. Crafted from a robust aluminium tube, it's internally lined with a simple translucent paper. This ingenious combination allows users to control the lamp’s aura. Adjust the top for upward light diffusion or extend the paper to cast a warm, soft glow around the edges.

MOEBE recognizes that light is the soul of a space. The Tube Pendant, available in two sizes and four colours, captures this essence, allowing homeowners and designers to elevate the ambiance of any room.

MOEBE is not just a brand; it's a movement. It's an invitation to embrace simplicity, quality, and sustainability. In their hands, raw materials transform into functional art pieces, and spaces come alive with purpose and beauty.

A Fresh Ode to Quality Time and Togetherness

Designed to capture the essence of moments spent with loved ones, the Céramique Lab collection is a tribute to the timeless beauty of ceramics. Rooted in a love for substance, technique, and originality, the collection is an embodiment of Smallable's commitment to promoting artisans who bring soul into their creations.

In an age where fast consumerism reigns supreme, Smallable’s initiative is an ode to “Slow Life”. It's a celebration of artisanship that makes each piece in the collection unique. It's a conscious effort to shift the spotlight from quantity to quality.

While the collection brings together the exceptional talent of seven ceramists, let's delve deeper into the stories of three standout contributors:

Mariela Ceramica
Belgian-based artist, Mariela Torres crafts with a deep reverence for individuality and nature. Her creations, marked by vivid colors and natural shapes, reflect her Chilean and Belgian roots. More than just ceramic pieces, they are stories of her positive approach to design and her dual heritage.

Léa Baldassari
From the heart of Paris in the 11th arrondissement, Léa brings an instinctive approach to her work. Her stoneware pieces are raw, organic, and poetic. They bear testimony to her love for visibly handmade creations, each piece resonating with its unique character.

Beldy
Founded by Lucile Salamone and Hakim Ghachou in 2015, Beldy transcends mere ceramics. Drawing inspiration from Mediterranean culture, their diverse portfolio boasts handmade items made from materials ranging from ceramic to brass. Every creation tells a story, and every story is imbued with human emotions, imperfections, and poetic charm.

The other notable contributors to Céramique Lab include Cole & Cinder, Casa Cecu, Franca Atelier, and Rosi Mistou.

In the words of its founder, Cécile Roederer, Smallable was born out of a need. A need to provide parents with a one-stop destination for high-quality children's fashion and home furnishings. Over the years, the brand has grown, expanded its offerings, and cemented its position as a global leader. From baby care to women's fashion, home decor to teen fashion, Smallable offers a curated selection from over 750 global brands, each echoing the brand's commitment to quality, design, and responsible production.

At the core of Smallable's philosophy is an unyielding commitment to supporting designers who champion ethical manufacturing, environmentally-friendly processes, and limited local production. In doing so, Smallable has not only promoted quality over quantity but has also fostered a community of conscious consumers.

As Smallable embarks on its next chapter, the launch of the Céramique Lab collection is a fitting tribute to its roots, values, and vision. It's a celebration of the brand's commitment to quality, artisanship, and timeless design. And for those of us who appreciate the finer things in life, it's a reminder that beauty, craftsmanship, and authenticity are always in vogue.

MISSONI Fall Winter 2023 AD Campaign
A Nocturnal Journey through Milan's Glowing Heartbeat

written Amanda Morentson

The sprawling metropolis of Milan, known for its rich heritage and bustling day-life, transforms into an ethereal dreamscape as the sun dips below the horizon.

Its luminous charm and vast cityscape, steeped in myriad emotions, come alive under the dazzling cloak of night, setting an evocative stage for Missoni's FW23 advertising campaign.

With each frame, acclaimed photographer Theo Wenner transports us into this vivid Milanese night, narrating an enchanting tale of escapism, nostalgia, and modern femininity. The mesmerizing Liv Walters, the intriguing Maty Fall, and the ever-dynamic Yang Ling - each of them play pivotal roles in this urban fairytale, bringing Missoni’s narrative to life.

As we traverse through the neon-soaked streets, club lights piercing the darkness with their vibrancy, and the warm, consistent glow of streetlights, the protagonists emerge as seamless amalgamations of timeless elegance and a longing for yesteryears. Clad in resplendent dresses boasting metallic brilliance and cascading chromatic gradients, they embody the spirit of Missoni - a harmonious blend of homage to tradition and audacious identity. Their attires, while deeply rooted in the past, cast a nod towards the future with their avant-garde motifs and textures.

It isn't just the apparels that draw inspiration from the architectural marvel that is Milan; the campaign itself is a visual symphony. The play of heights, swift movements, and the city's mirrored reflections evokes its iconic skyline. And under the mysterious cover of night, this skyline takes on a bewitching allure, drawing us into its restless embrace.

Echoing the sentiment and essence of the FW23 fashion show, the campaign visuals cleverly weave a narrative that oscillates between the dreamy and the real. As the protagonists navigate the city, their journey is accentuated by fleeting moments – vivid flashes, unbridled mirth, and the genuine freedom of light-heartedness. These instances serve as interludes, transporting them back to a singular, irreplaceable memory.

"Do you remember the first kiss?" - these words aren't merely a question but an encapsulation of an emotion. A sentiment that transcends the barriers of time, plunging one into the depths of nostalgia.

As dawn edges closer, painting the horizon in hues of amber and gold, our leading ladies find themselves on a rooftop terrace. Here, as time momentarily stands still, they’re caught in a poignant tableau – an intersection of the past's gentle pull and the present's tender embrace.

Prada December Issue 2023
Cinematic Dreams Meet Couture Reality

written Sarah Arendts

Sitting at the nexus of cinematic allure and sartorial craftsmanship is Prada’s December Issue 2023 collection, and LE MILE is here to offer a front-row view.

The silver screen has always been Prada's playground, a world where timeless characters come alive, dripping in emotion, story, and inevitably, impeccable style. This season, the brand journeys through the celluloid archives of the 20th century, breathing life into yesteryears' icons with an added flair of today.

For the femme forces, there's a dance between the delicate and the powerful. Envision a world where fragility entwines with fierce determination. It’s a realm where the classic and the whimsical clash in the most harmonious way. The practical is laced with the plush, turning everyday wear into something spectacular. Feathers playfully flirt with hems, while the traditionally masculine overcoat undergoes a glamorous transformation through duchesse satin.

The materials used are both a nod to classics and a gentle push into the future. The stretch raso clings close, tracing every curve with grace, reminding one of vintage Hollywood glamour but with the sophistication of modern-day. Then there's a symphony in details: from crystal buttons mimicking bijoux to microscopic chains holding the essence of a dress together.

The men aren’t left behind in this cinematic dream. Their world is one of romantic heroism, of long, sweeping coats that billow with enigmatic allure. Silk tailoring, abstract floral sketches, and a nod to minimalism, all reflect Prada's signature touch. Remember those days of Hawaiian silk patterned shirts? Prada does, and they’ve brought it back, a memory of a sun-drenched era.

Knitwear takes center stage for both genders. It’s a tactile experience - sensual, comfortable, and so distinctly unique. Women can bask in the nostalgia of twinsets, and men can wrap themselves in the gentle embrace of oversized cashmere wonders.

Not to be forgotten are Prada's iconic accessories, a realm where old meets new. Vintage enthusiasts will delight in the resurgence of the Spring/Summer 1995 dress. Bags, the stalwarts of any outfit, undergo a rejuvenation, with classics like the Galleria, Odette, and Cleo shining in patent finishes.

Ending on footwear, Prada presents a range that is the epitome of the brand - slingbacks, sandals, mules, and more. Men can opt for minimal designs crafted in brushed leather and patent, embodying a quiet luxury.

Tsyrk Spring/Summer 2024
Where Pastel Memories Waltz with Modern Folly

written Amanda Mortenson

Immerse yourself into Tsyrk's SS24 collection, and you're immediately transported into a realm where nostalgia doesn't just linger; it thrives. With each piece, you're met with an innovative blend of color juxtapositions, trompe l'oeil mastery, and the unexpected flair that makes you question, re-question, and appreciate the world of fashion all over again.

Kori Chiang, the mastermind behind Tsyrk, elegantly strings her personal narrative through the collection. Hong Kong, a mosaic of contrasting histories and futurism, and notably the birthplace of her paternal grandmother, offers an underpinning inspiration. In a manner reminiscent of the city's pulse, Tsyrk's SS24 effortlessly weaves divergent concepts into an ironic, playful dance.

Yet, for all its individualism, the Tsyrk label is one rooted in collective memories. The very name – resonating with the whimsy and nostalgia of a "circus" – sets the tone. It's an invitation to reimagine the familiar, to perceive the mundane anew, like a child gazing wide-eyed at a world of wonder.

Chiang's design philosophy is both an enigma and a revelation. Grounded in systematic frameworks, it simultaneously breaks free, much like a captivating circus act. Every stitch, every drape is a testament to the harmonious blend of precision and uninhibited artistry.

The fabric choice is yet another chapter of the Tsyrk narrative. Echoing memories of retro mass production and items that colored childhood – the toys, the uniforms, the aprons – Chiang lends an imaginative touch, making each ensemble a bridge between eras.

But the story doesn't end here. Born in Texas, and having painted her life with inspirations from four continents, Kori Chiang's designs wear a cosmopolitan soul. While Tsyrk was conceived in 2021, its spirit feels ageless, tethered neither to time nor place but hovering amidst global inspirations.

With a creative brigade spread across iconic cities like Barcelona, Amsterdam, Kyiv, and London, Tsyrk's aesthetic pulse is ever-evolving. It's a brand in flux, dynamically adapting, reshaping, and redefining its narrative.

For the LE MILE enthusiast, Tsyrk's SS24 isn't just a collection; it's an experience. A rendezvous with memories, a flirtation with contrasts, and a heartfelt embrace of global influences. Dive in, and let the fashion fantasy of Tsyrk captivate your senses.

Kylie Jenner for Acne Studios Fall / Winter 2023

*New Campaign
Acne Studios FW23
Where Kylie Jenner Meets Denim Elegance

written Sarah Arendts

In an unexpected twist of fashion tales, Acne Studios has chosen to spotlight Kylie Jenner in their forthcoming Fall/Winter 2023 denim campaign. Heralded as the siren call of the season, it is an enthralling mixture of legacy denim, revolutionary design, and Kylie’s unabashed self-adoration.

Drenched in the raw and moody streets of Los Angeles, the campaign is spearheaded by Dutch luminary, Carlijn Jacobs. It dares to tread the line of reinvention and homage by presenting Kylie in a bold, unfiltered avatar. The fashion doyenne is unspooled in oversized silhouettes, contrasting beautifully with distressed and gritty washes of Acne's newest denim collection.

Jonny Johansson, the creative genius behind Acne Studios, remarks on denim’s pivotal role. Born from a mere 100 pairs in 1996, the legacy still thrives, with jeans serving as the centrifugal force in one's wardrobe. According to Johansson, "Denim is the axle for everything else in your wardrobe.”

Kylie herself becomes a canvas, exuding the seasonal mood with wet-look tresses and a body-paint splash. The standout, however, is the introduction of the ‘2023’ - a unisex, vintage-distressed revelation. It's accompanied by the ‘2021’, a callback to a more laid-back silhouette, and the majestic sweep of the ‘Dacna’ denim maxi dress. Paired seamlessly with Acne Studios’ newest accessories, including the raw-cut Multi-Pocket bag and FW23 eyewear, it’s a nod to the future while treasuring the past.

While new to this side of the lens for Acne Studios, Jenner's relationship with the brand isn’t fledgling by any means. An ardent attendee of their Spring/Summer 2023 Paris show, she has been an organic ambassador, folding their creations into her iconic style. The admiration is mutual, with Jenner expressing her fondness for the campaign's stripped-back strength.

In a bid to immortalize Jenner’s unabashed confidence, Jacobs endeavors to echo her "unapologetic self-love". With images where Kylie not just faces, but embraces herself, Jacobs believes it portrays a woman in absolute command, unabashed in her desires and her self-compassion.

For those captivated by the visual alchemy of Carlijn Jacobs, prepare to delve deeper into her oeuvre. LE MILE Magazine is primed to showcase Jacobs’s works in a bespoke feature in our forthcoming Fall/Winter Issue Nr. 35. A treat for connoisseurs, it promises an inside look into the mind of this visionary artist.

Loro Piana Fall/Winter 2023
'Extra Bag' sets the Fall Pulse Racing

written Amanda Morentson

Fall in, rebels. Loro Piana drops a sartorial bombshell with their newest creation: the Extra Bag.

A fierce reincarnation of the once raved-about Extra Pocket from the frosty haze of Fall Winter 2019-2020, this bad boy is all set to steal the limelight and rule every fashion-forward soul's arsenal. Think of it as the maison's edgiest retort to the daily dilemma of 'what to carry' – a mad mix of style, stance, and sheer sophistication.

Let’s talk form.

Contemporary yet timeless, with a hint of drama, this bag embodies a plush rectangular-ish silhouette, sure to make heads turn from SoHo to Shibuya. Crafted with an almost palpable passion, the bag exudes quality; the finest calfskin is transformed into a texture that's both lavish and lustrous. It’s as if you're holding a velvety dream.

The New EXTRA BAGS

And oh, the details!

It's evident that Loro Piana was quite literally "stitched in thought" when designing this beauty. The contrasting ecru stitches hark back to traditional leather lore, and the two-way shoulder strap? It's versatile fashion's answer to contemporary chaos, whether you're more a one-shoulder sashay or a cross-body crusader.

Now, a brief pause for the showstoppers: those two new charms. Gleaming golden lockets, with the sultry initials "LP", stand out against the leather canvas. Whether you're pulling at the ample zipper or admiring the vintage key fob, there's a sense of legacy, a promise of timelessness.

Loro Piana plays a color symphony, too. From the ethereal white of "Sunday Morning" (reminding us of lazy brunches and sheets kissed by the sun) to the sultry depth of "Dark Chocolate Licorice" and "New Petrolio." And then, for those in-the-know, there's "Deep Kummel" – Loro Piana’s signature shade that softly whispers feminine charm.

The Extra Bag offers more than mere utility; it represents a story, a tribute to timeless grace. Imagine meandering through autumnal Parisian boulevards, carrying a piece that feels both light and balanced.

As autumn approaches, anticipate seeing this refined piece in Loro Piana boutiques and on their online collection.
