Fashion Round-Up
Time flies, so to keep you in the loop, we’ve rounded up all the important snippets of fashion news from the past seven days into one neat feature.
Gucci in Monte Carlo
Monaco and Gucci have a longstanding relationship: in 1966, Vittorio Accornero designed a floral silk scarf at the request of Rodolfo Gucci for Princess Grace of Monaco – becoming a visual motif that has endured to today. Travelling to Monaco’s glamorous Monte Carlo for this season’s summer campaign, a model cast spotlight the collection between dips in hotel pools and open water. What a life.

Coach x Brain Dead
A fantasy fun fair bang in the middle of Manhattan was the setting for Coach’s collaboration with Brain Dead. Guided by the idea of an imagined amusement park, the collection was inspired by collectability and customisation, decorating pieces with badges, patches, charms, and whimsical objects won on the stalls.
It’s coming home
Palace Skateboards and Nike’s England World Cup collaboration has already given us the immortal image of Wayne Rooney in an Elizabethian ruff, now – with the World Cup kickoff just a week away – the two brands drop another deck of WC ’26 capsule imagery, featuring England stars Marcus Rashford, Mainoo and Saka alongside Palace skate team Lucien Clarke and Kyle Wilson, all wearing Palace’s latest interpretation of Nike’s training and off-pitch staples.

Tommy Hilfiger by sea
The US brand has launched its second collection in partnership with the U.S. SailGP Team. Designed for life on and off the water, the line-up blends technical gear with Americana casuals. There’s a waterproof and windproof Sailing Jacket, a durable polo, rugby sweatshirts, and flag logo tees.
“SailGP is about pushing the limits of what’s possible on the water, and that mindset carries into everything we do,” said Mike Buckley, Co-Owner, Team Principal & CEO of the U.S. SailGP Team. “We’re constantly moving, and what we wear needs to keep up, not just when we’re racing… Sport and fashion are no longer separate worlds, and we wanted to design something that works on the race course, in the city and everywhere in between.”

Louis Vuitton’s F1 trunk
This year, Louis Vuitton is officially the title partner of the 2026 Formula 1 Grand Prix De Monaco, returning to present a bespoke Trophy Trunk for the sixth consecutive year. Alongside the trunk, this year’s edition will see the House unveil an exclusive new Monaco City Guide and a series of specially designed window displays at its Monaco store, adorned in the colours of the Grand Prix, from 5th to 7th June.
180 years of Loewe
Founded in 1846 in Spain’s capital city, Loewe is the second-oldest luxury fashion house in the world. For close to two decades, the brand has stood at the helm of craftsmanship and design, transforming from a small workshop in Madrid to a global powerhouse. In celebration of its 180th anniversary, creative directors Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez have unveiled a campaign starring global brand ambassador Julia Garner, brand ambassadors Salma Abu Deif, GISELLE and Kara Wai, alongside actor Sissy Spacek and artist Kara Walker.
Louis Vuitton’s Pre-Collection
Louis Vuitton’s SS27 pre-collection is aptly titled Whatever the Weather, as Pharrell’s focus shifted to equipping the LV to brave the elements. Fit for every climate, this collection offers up silhouettes reminiscent of 1980s workwear embossed with the LV monogram, durable puffer coats, reversible knit jumpers and quarter-zip trucker jumpers.
One for the girls!
It’s officially a Rhode summer. Hailey Bieber has just dropped the products we’ve all been waiting for; those with an eagle eye will have seen her tease the release of a pocket bronzer and a new glazing milk for the past few weeks on TikTok, and now you can get your hands on them. Alongside the Pocket Bronze and Highlight Milk, Bieber is releasing a selection of new shades in the Peptide Lip Tint and Peptide Lip Shape, all arriving in bronzed, golden hues to create a summer glow.
ASICS teams up with Griff
London-based musician Griff has teamed up with ASICS SportStyle to develop a new vision of the brand’s GEL-CUMULUS 16. Fusing the world of music and movement, the silhouette combines Griff’s sartorial sensibility with ASICS technical know-how. Arriving in a black colourway, traditional laces are replaced by ribbons in a nod to a ballet aesthetic. “I wanted the shoe to feel like an extension of my everyday style. I wanted to make it playful and elegant but also comfortable and something I can style from studio days to performing on stage to simply living my life,” says Griff.
There’s now a Thames MMXX store
Blondey McCoy has been busy laying the foundations for the first THAMES MMXX store, opening in the heart of London’s Soho. Located at 53 Brewer Street – just around the corner from The Queens Head – the store serves as a bricks-and-mortar translation of the brand, stocking an eclectic collection of goods, from tailoring and premium knitwear and fine jewellery, to ‘Bread and Butter’ basics and accessories. “A world to live in and delight in,” says McCoy – and we could all do with a bit of that.
Represent in LA
Against the concrete bowls and pastel skies of Venice Beach, Manchester-based Represent unveils its Summer capsule collection as a tribute to the LA lifestyle. Drawing on the teenage influences of founders George and Mike Heaton, the collection reimagines those formative references through a wardrobe of sun-faded staples: vintage band tee-inspired T-shirts, checkerboard sneakers, and distressed denim shaped by skate bowl wipeouts and mosh pit surfs. Carpenter shorts alongside overshirts, flannel, caps, and motel keyrings.

MM6 Maison Margiela’s Bauletto bag
First debuted on the SS26 runway, MM6 Maison Margiela’s Bauletto bag has become one of the house’s newest staples. Taking its name from the Italian phrase Bauletto, which directly translates to ‘little trunk’, the silhouette is a modern take on the classic bowling bag. Arriving in hues of pink, orange, khaki and black, complete with origami-inspired folds and supple leather finishes, the Bauletto is a welcome addition to MM6’s spring repertoire.
