EDITOR’S LETTER

CONTRIBUTORS

Inside Out • At the atelier with Rimzim Dadu; a deep dive into Alessandro Michele’s bold vision for Valentino; a round up of Paris Couture Week; and the trends of the season.

Heavy Medal • The iconic Dior Médaillon, tracing back to the oval-backed chairs that seated guests at Monsieur Christian Dior’s first couture presentation on Avenue Montaigne in 1947, now takes centre stage as an oversized brass buckle, cast in an antique gold finish and engraved with the brand’s name.

Life is a Party • The shades that were never meant to meet, until they did.

Love Letter

Fresh Pick • Blooming beyond bouquets and into fashion’s most beautiful forms.

House Rules • Who said comfort had to stay home?

Prints Charming • Every once in a while, dressing up becomes an art form.

Jelly Season • Wave-worn curves and a salt-water shimmer have been spotted all along this season’s shoreline—every sighting tracing back to the unmistakable sting of a jelly Jimmy Choo.

…Go Green? • Loewe’s layered leather clutch, in a vibrant green hue and glossy gold hardware, is straight out of a farmers’ market shopping list that has got us in an ‘artichoke’ hold.

Material Language • Transforming the precision of craft traditions into contemporary textile designs, Rimzim Dadu establishes the future of surface engineering in fashion.

Divine Timing • ALEX ANDER FURY enjoys an audience with Valentino’s creative director Alessandro Michele, whose bold, disruptive approach—one that blends beauty with chaos, and tradition with innovation—is adding an unexpected chapter to the iconic Roman house’s mythology.

Summer Epilogue • The streets of old San Juan become a canvas for sculptural silhouettes and sun-drenched palettes, capturing the last warmth of the season.

Couture in the Heat • Paris’s couture season becomes a meditation on fantasy, excess, restraint, and the human hand in the age of AI.
