And here is why it should be on yours as well!

Where Tennis Meets Tailoring

The BOSS OPEN 2026 turned Stuttgart’s Weissenhof into a meeting point for tennis, style and contemporary culture. As title sponsor, BOSS framed the ATP 250 tournament as more than a sporting event, bringing together world class matches, a strong guest list and a lifestyle driven atmosphere around the Centre Court.

On court, Ben Shelton claimed the singles title after a final against BOSS ambassador Taylor Fritz, while Yannick Hanfmann and Jan Lennard Struff secured the doubles trophy. Beyond the matches, BOSS expanded its presence through VIP moments, private dinners and a dedicated pop up store presenting selected event pieces and Activewear collections. The result was a polished expression of modern tennis culture, where performance, fashion and social energy moved within the same frame

Where We Are From

For Fall Winter 2026, The Attico turns inward, reflecting on identity, memory and the idea of an Italian wardrobe shaped across generations. Marking the brand’s tenth anniversary, the collection explores familiar codes without slipping into nostalgia, reinterpreting lace, tailoring, denim and outerwear through a contemporary lens.

Garment layered constructions, shifting proportions and tactile contrasts define the season, balancing structure with softness and ease. Leather, wool, satin, jersey and lace come together in muted tones, while dresses, bombers and newly introduced puffers reflect a wardrobe that feels both inherited and renewed. Accessories continue this dialogue, with updated versions of La Passeggiata and new iterations of the Cheope family extending the house’s evolving design language.

Rather than looking back, The Attico uses its roots as a point of departure, presenting a vision of Italian femininity that feels instinctive, personal and firmly grounded in the present.

A New Sense of Lightness

For its Summer Campaign, LISA YANG explores the quiet ease of warm weather dressing through cashmere and silk. The collection is built around airy layers, relaxed silhouettes and pieces that move naturally from city days to vacation evenings. Lightweight cashmere, lustrous silk and soft jersey compositions create a wardrobe defined by comfort without losing refinement.

Textured scarves, tailoring inspired silk bottoms and crochet like silk cashmere pieces add volume and softness, while the palette remains calm and versatile. Creams, greys and black are joined by Soft Sky, a vivid blue, and the earthy tone Deep Walnut, shaping a summer mood that feels understated, feminine and quietly strong.

Folded in Time

Emporio Armani introduces 1981, a new bag collection named after the year the house was founded. Developed through archival research, the line connects the brand’s heritage with a contemporary sense of ease, translating its design language into pieces made for everyday movement.

A signature micro print appears across clean hobo bags, totes, handbags and shoulder bags, while subtle origami inspired folds add texture and dimension. Jewellery like clasps and delicate folded charms bring a refined finish, balanced by a quiet palette of tan, black and taupe. Available now in selected boutiques worldwide and online, 1981 feels like an understated continuation of the Emporio Armani wardrobe.

Heatwave Armour

Zomer Paris introduces NOVA, a new shield style silhouette made for summer. Defined by sharp lines and an oversized shape, the frame brings a bold accent to everyday dressing while staying lightweight and easy to wear.

Designed for heatwaves, city days and thrown on evening looks, NOVA moves between practicality and statement. It is the kind of piece that shifts a simple outfit into something more intentional, with minimal effort. NOVA is available now.

And here is why it should be on yours as well!

A SUMMER IN MOTION, SOMEWHERE IN MONTE CARLO

Gucci’s latest campaign unfolds across Monte Carlo in drifting scenes of pools, open water, and in-between moments. A cast including Tian Xi Wei, Anok Yai, Amelia Gray and others moves through a summer that feels less like a destination and more like a state of suspension—plans undefined, horizons open.

The wardrobe follows suit: relaxed tailoring, fluid silhouettes, Flora prints marking the House’s 60-year dialogue with the motif first created in 1966 for Princess Grace of Monaco. Alongside them, signature bags like the Jackie, Venice, and GG Monogram travel pieces anchor a story built on ease and movement.

Set against Monaco’s long-standing role as a stage for fashion and escape, the campaign leans into a familiar idea: summer as possibility, not pause.

CARHARTT WIP – FW26 PREVIEW: WORN, WASHED, IN-BETWEEN

Carhartt WIP’s Fall/Winter 2026 preview lands early, setting the tone for a season that hasn’t quite started yet. Positioned between summer and fall, the collection works as a quiet transition—less about arrival, more about what comes next.

This season leans into texture and wear: new “destroy wash” treatments give signature pieces like the OG Chore Coat and Double Knee Pant a heavily lived-in finish. Familiar silhouettes return alongside hybrids like the Manderson Jacket and Brader Blazer, blurring the line between workwear, field gear, and tailoring.

Heavy jersey and garment-dyed fabrics shift the palette into deeper, muted tones, as if everything is slowly dimming toward autumn. A preview built on fading edges, softened structure, and clothes that feel already in motion.

ROECKL: REINTERPRETING THE OPERA GLOVE 

For the Autumn/Winter 2026/27 season, Roeckl, the Munich-based luxury accessories house renowned for its craftsmanship and expertise in fine leather since 1839, reinterprets the classic opera glove with the style “Noho.” Crafted in an extra-long silhouette from fine, unlined hair sheep nappa leather and adorned with spiralling ruffles, the design creates an intriguing contrast between supple leather and delicate organza. Worn with oversized tailoring, leather, denim or knitwear, the glove plays with proportions and makes a distinctive fashion statement, available in black and wine.

MADONNA X DOLCE & GABBANA FOR CONFESSIONS II

Madonna reunites with Dolce&Gabbana for Confessions II – The Film, a 10-minute visual work directed by David Toro and Solomon Chase (TORSO), which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival. Produced by DIVISION, the film unfolds across the first six tracks of her upcoming album, merging music, image, and styling into a single immersive narrative shaped by Dolce&Gabbana’s archival and contemporary codes.

Within the film, Madonna appears in a series of looks that rework the brand’s archive: a stretch satin PVC dress referencing Spring/Summer 1998 and Ray of Light, a black satin slip dress with corset detailing, and a rhinestone-embellished FW 1991/1992 top paired with structured shaper panties. Together, the silhouettes frame fashion as narrative, extending Madonna’s visual language through the house’s unmistakable aesthetic vocabulary.

NIGERIA X SLAWN REWORKS THE SUPER EAGLES ARCHIVE

Slawn brings his raw, hand-drawn visual language to the Nigeria national football team in a new collaboration that reimagines performance wear through bold, unfiltered graphics. The collection spans jerseys, tracksuits, fleece pieces, and lightweight outerwear, all marked by his signature reinterpretation of the Super Eagles wings and co-branded detailing that celebrates Nigerian identity on and off the pitch.

Extending into footwear, Slawn reworks the archival Nike Cryoshot boot, covering the silhouette in hand-drawn illustrations for a street-ready reinterpretation of a classic cleat. The full collection launches from June 11 across Slawn and federation retail, followed by Dover Street Market and SNKRS releases later in the month.

And here is why it should be on yours as well!

FITTING EVERYTHING AND ANYWHERE

In 1993, two brothers were looking for a water-resistant, robust material for their bag designs. Inspired by the countless trucks driving down the Zurich transit axis in front of their house, they designed their first messenger bag from truck tarps. The brand Freitag was born, and went on to achieve great success in the following years, expanding from Switzerland throughout Europe and into Asia.

Years later, in 2026, FREITAG introduces yet another bag: the F622 Jack City Bag. Foldable, this bag can be converted into such a small size that you can bring it anywhere. Unfolded, it fits 15 litres and holds your belongings thanks to the light, recyclable nylon fabric. Staying true to the brand’s roots, you can close it with a piece of individual truck tarp, promising extra safety.

For the design, seven local artists worked in close collaboration with each FREITAG store in the different locations. The Jack City Bags of Berlin, Amsterdam, Tokyo, Shanghai, Zurich, and Seoul are exclusively available in the local FREITAG store. Only the Oerlikon design is available online.

THE HARMONY COLLECTION BY UGG

The Californian surf brand introduces its new collection, “The Harmony Collection”. The new designs celebrate the contrast between hard and soft, neutral and warm, creating harmonious styles that capture the essence and feel of UGG.

The collection sits exactly at the intersection of comfort and elevation, where classics meet innovative statements.

For the women’s line, UGG first introduces the “Goldenstar Crackle Glide”, featuring crackled leather that evolves with wear, promising a personal touch. Available in Crackle White, the lightweight outsole provides cushioning, while the adjustable heel strap ensures a custom fit, adapting the shoe to your feet, and not the other way around.

The second model is the “Goldenstar Crackle Clog”, made with a lining from 100% recycled textiles and completed with an anti-odor treatment. Like the first style, this shoe also features an adjustable strap for versatile 2-in-1 styling options, as well as an ultra-lightweight outsole that delivers comfort and support.

CELEBRATING CREATIVITY: MANGO X ECKHAUS LATTA 

Mango’s platform, “Mango Collective”, which collaborates with one designer annually, has just introduced its partner for 2026: Eckhaus Latta. The American brand is known for its use of unconventional materials, bold prints, and a general focus on practical, actually wearable everyday clothing. The two brands joined forces for a capsule collection this summer, skilfully moving between concept, functionality, and urban sensibility.

The collection is designed to encourage personal expression, showcasing how subversive the everyday can be by simply disrupting it through stylistic choices. It convinces with design elements such as denim and bold prints, contrasted by layers of ultra-light pieces, knitwear featuring colour combinations, and prints inspired by the underwater world. Transparent fabrics and minimalist cuts reminiscent of the 1990s create a distinct aesthetic, while accessories complement the organic and asymmetrical shapes that run throughout the entire collection.

Mango Collective is the brand-owned platform celebrating the creativity and innovation of niche designers — and this latest collaboration is set to become a summer staple.

HEADJUMP INTO IBIZA’S NIGHTLIFE
HÏ IBIZA X PALM ANGELS

HÏ IBIZA and Palm Angels partnered up for the second time to spoil fans with their newest capsule collection. The new pieces capture the magnetic pull of the island and, more so, the transcendental energy of its dancefloors.

Both brands share their commitment to culture, community, and creative expression. Those values are reflected in the collection’s statement pieces, defined by a custom-developed “Cloud Wash” tie-dye technique. As their manifesto states, “Some people just know how to fly,” this collection celebrates the fleeting, euphoric moments on the dancefloor that many of us know and desire.

The face of the campaign is French model Clara Berry, who stands out with her distinctive style and contemporary attitude. Alongside her, Pacôme Pegaz also represents the campaign, known for his spectacular death-diving acts. Together, they embody the daring, vibrant, and youthful spirit of this collaboration.

To celebrate the launch, there is a dual-city experience spanning Ibiza and London, with the new collection available at the local HÏ IBIZA store and online. Additionally, a two-week pop-up will take place at London’s flagship FLANNELS store from 28 May onwards.

GREETINGS FROM THE RIVIERA

The COS Summer Collection combines contemporary design with effortless versatility, inspired by the relaxed atmosphere of the Riviera. Defined by lightweight fabrics, refined tailoring, and relaxed silhouettes, the collection balances functionality with timeless elegance. Womenswear features matching sets, modern dresses, and fluid trousers, while menswear focuses on unstructured tailoring, textured knitwear, and workwear-inspired details. Accessories complete the collection with woven bags, leather sandals, sunglasses, and minimalist swimwear designs. Reflecting COS’s commitment to quality and longevity, the collection offers modern wardrobe essentials that combine comfort, function, and enduring style.

SUCCESSFUL LOVING FOR PRIDE MONTH

With June approaching quickly, Diesel and Tinder have announced their creative partnership to celebrate this year’s Pride.

In collaboration with Germany’s most popular dating app, Diesel has created a capsule collection consisting of 17 different pieces. Classic Diesel design pieces such as clean shirts, jeans and underwear get a pretty hot edge through burnout devoré elements, teasing the skin with see-through fabric. Accessories include denim baseball hats and Diesel x Tinder charm keychains.

Diesel’s codes of fearless self-expression have been interpreted through Tinder’s lens of attraction, intimacy and connection. The capsule collection and corresponding campaign amplify the community’s message of freedom of expression, sexuality and individuality. Part of the campaign are Gigi Goode’s interviews with LGBTQIA+ community members. The artist, model and designer conducted candid and intimate interviews, exchanging thoughts on love and relationships. Both firms are donating a total of $200,000 to Outright International, enhancing equitable and sustainable income access for the LGBTQIA+ community.

As Glenn Martens, Creative Director of Diesel, states: “Working with Tinder on ‘For Successful Living’ felt like tapping into the same mindset. It’s not about idealizing love, but defending it and giving it a voice — one that creates space for all its forms and, above all, for something real.”

THE FIRST SWIM – FINALLY 

“The Attico” has launched a beachwear summer collection that couldn’t scream Italian summer any more. Swimwear as well as ready-to-wear pieces are purposely designed to slip between private and public, stillness and movement, making them perfect companions for the spontaneity of a long summer day. Named “Il primo bagno” (Italian for “the first swim”), the collection captures exactly that feeling. The designs feel raw, instinctive and transformative, just like summer.

In the spotlight are zebra prints, bold stripes and washed blue-and-white patterns. Besides swimwear and ready-to-wear, accessories also play a central role in dressing you for summer: chunky platform sandals made from cork and other materials, as well as two bags suitable for a variety of different occasions: “Via dei Giardini” and “Via del Mare”. Dive in!

MYKITA: CANDY-COLOURED EYEWEAR

Known for its clean, precise aesthetic, MYKITA has built its reputation on rethinking how eyewear is designed and made. Founded in Berlin in 2003 by Moritz Krüger, the brand combines patented technologies with specialised handcraft to create durable, distinctive frames. All collections are handcrafted at the MYKITA HAUS in Berlin, where interdisciplinary collaboration and responsible production are central to the brand’s approach.

This season, MYKITA’s LITE POWDER collection introduces a fresh touch of colour. Alongside the soft candy-inspired shades Laurel Green, Horizon Blue and Dove Grey, the ultra-minimal powder-coated silhouettes now appear in Neon Pink. The vivid new shade debuts on AITA, a classic panto shape, and extends to TOSCA, an aviator frame, and SANTO, a geometric hexagon. Reduced in construction yet confident in presence, the frames bring a precise, contemporary edge to the collection.

Each model is handcrafted from circular stainless steel at the MYKITA HAUS in Berlin.

PISTACHIO DELICACIES

„LOEWE Perfumes“ launched their latest addition to their home scent candle series: a soft dream of pistachio. Each candle in the series is inspired by a single plant in its raw form, highlighting nature’s most essential and pure scents.

Native to Afghanistan, Iran, and Central Asia, the pistachio tree is praised for its distinctive, rich, and sweetly perfumed nuts. Melted into a signature glazed terracotta vessel in verdant green, made in Spain, the candle spreads a creamy, gourmand fragrance. Unlit, the scent reveals a milky, nutty accord. Once lit, it seduces with a more indulgently rounded and sweet aroma.

The collectible series is made from natural wax and cotton wicks, with an Anagram-stamped base. Altogether, this candle addition is a playful celebration of craft and botanical inspiration, displaying nature’s finest products.

SOFT POWER IN PINK

With Stylein, pink is currently being redefined through a new fashion lens. The color no longer reads as automatically playful or overly sweet, but instead appears clean, modern, and refined. Rooted in the brand’s Scandinavian minimalism, Stylein’s aesthetic is defined by understated silhouettes, fluid fabrics, and a calm monochrome sensibility that allows soft pink tones to feel unexpectedly grown-up.

Across recent collections, including Chanel and Stella McCartney, head-to-toe pink has taken on a more controlled, sculptural quality. Rather than reading as romantic, it is styled as something precise and self-assured — shifting the color into a space of strength and quiet elegance.

The key lies in styling: sharp cuts, minimal accessories, and monochrome compositions give the color a new kind of clarity. Pink, in this context, becomes less about softness in the traditional sense and more about control, confidence, and a quiet, sophisticated coolness.

DESIGN AS A CULTURAL DIALOGUE: GALERIE OM´S OPENING EVENT

Save the date: On upcoming Thursday, 28th May, Berlin gains a new, enticing gallery.
In the heart of the city’s art scene, at Potsdamer Straße 100, design enthusiasts are invited from 8pm onwards to check out the new Galerie OM.

Founded by Oscar Gröne and Moana Thies, the gallery promises a new approach to collectible design pieces and contemporary culture. They are expected to blend the sophistication of Paris, Milan and New York with Berlin’s underground creative energy. Conceived as a fully sensory environment, the gallery creates an immersive exchange between collectible objects, furniture, spatial design, and live experiences through exhibitions, happenings, and curated programming.

Their opening exhibition „Partie Une“ is curated by interior architect and creative director Julian Zacharias Eide and reflects the gallery’s vision of design as an experimental language perfectly. Through scenographic installations and carefully composed interiors, the exhibition beautifully explores materiality, spatial narratives and creative expression. Design is read as an atmosphere, as a cultural dialogue rather than a static display. Galerie OM works primarily on a commission basis, which enables them to focus on rare, character-driven works. This suits their darker, raw and slightly provocative aesthetic, making them a must-visit.

Galerie OM will focus on a curated program of event-driven pop-up exhibitions in Berlin and has future activations planned for Paris and Milan.

ABOUT THE FUTURE OF THE NIKE AIR´S

Nike introduces a new program to ensure the future of one iconic shoe: the Nike Airs. The program celebrates the cultural impact of Air Max and invites a group of global creatives to reimagine its future. The eight individual designers originate from eight different countries, uniting Beijing, London, Los Angeles, Mumbai, New York, Paris, Shanghai, and Tokyo through Nike headquarters. The designers are a diverse group of young, emerging creatives, including Diya Joukani (possibly known through her laid-back TikToks from the streets of Mumbai), Jose Wong, and Tasnim.

They will work closely with their Nike mentors and external collaborators to develop distinctive 3D-printed Air Max styles. By visiting Nike Air Manufacturing Innovation facilities, the Nike archive, and the Nike Sport Research Lab, the program functions as a deep dive into Air Max history, allowing the young designers to draw inspiration from the past and translate it into the present. The next Nike Airs will be designed by those who actually wear them—while building on the 40-year heritage of Air innovation.

Nike Air Works is created in partnership with Zellerfeld to reflect the designers’ individuality and celebrate their communities from around the world.

A first meeting was held on 11 May; all Nike Airs are expected to launch throughout the coming year.

DRYKORN: SUMMER TRENDS FOR BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE

The brand introduces their new summer assets: first off, matching sets. The corresponding fabrics and colours build stylish, complete looks for when encountering another outfit crisis. Relaxed cuts meet precise expression, ensuring comfort for warm days.

Other plans for the summer are “dark chocolate with coconut milk” — sounds delicious, but are actually the new trend colours for Drykorn’s collection. The delicate contrast runs through the matching sets as well as the rest of the collection, tying everything together in a subtle but distinct way.

MIU MIU LAUNCHES NEW UPCYCLED COLLECTION

Miuccia Prada has opened a new conversation between past and present with the newest collection. The pieces were sourced from vintage clothing experts all over the world before being restored and finally refashioned. Trousers became jackets, shirts transformed into dresses or apron tops — the possibilities are limitless. Throughout the process, the lives and experiences of previous owners are profoundly respected, while breathing new life into the old pieces.

Marks of ageing and the passing of time are celebrated rather than concealed, through reinvented silhouettes and newly interpreted garments, all while upholding Miu Miu’s key design elements and patterns. Finished by hand, every piece becomes a new and unique creation.

The face of the new campaign is multi-talented artist Suki Waterhouse, paying homage to the iconic fashion house’s archive.

The collection will be available in selected stores worldwide from now on.

SMELLS LIKE SUMMER – FUGAZZI´S NEW SCENTS

Founded by Bram Niessink in 2018 after an inspiring trip to Egypt and its century-old sophistication in scent oils, Fugazzi provides elevated scents ever since.
With temperatures far above 20 degrees coming up, it’s urgent to introduce the new summer scents.
First is „Angel Dust“, a subtle but catchy smell that will silently carry you through hot summer days. With base notes of musk, amber, and delicate resins, the scent creates a long-lasting warmth and an intense, elegant depth.
Fugazzi’s other new scent is „Pomegranoudh“, a skilfully blended composition of pomegranate and oud. Pomegranate is positioned upfront, though never sweet or over the top but softly inviting, accompanied by bergamot and red fruits.
The base note creates a soft background of vanilla, musk, and amber.

Two unique scents to make this summer yours!

And here is why it should be on yours as well!

GCDS „THE MODERN PRINCESS“ STARRING ANNA MALYGON 

After closing the GCDS SS26 runway show, Anna Malygon’s appearance in the new campaign comes as no surprise. The Ukrainian internet It-girl has quickly built a strong fanbase through her instinctive, sexy, and daring online presence — a perfect match for GCDS.

Shot by Jumbo Tsui in Los Angeles, the summer campaign follows a day in the life of a modern princess. Playing dress-up, driving, and fooling around, she appears glamorous, messy, and unfiltered. Set within a dreamy, castle-like world, Anna moves through GCDS’s playful, surreal universe. We see oversized silhouettes, statement accessories, and overall pop-inspired styling by Mari Siviakova.

The campaign successfully explores the contrast between fantasy aesthetics and raw internet culture — and the result is definitely worth seeing.

THE ROYAL D – DIESEL´S DYNASTY CAMPAIGN

Diesel’s new campaign, The Royal D, skilfully balances sophistication and irreverence.
The concept introduces a modern denim aristocracy through majestic family portraits reminiscent of old master paintings. Reinterpreted by Glenn Martens and Christopher Simmonds, the campaign celebrates contemporary freedom, self-expression, and individuality.

The new Made in Italy capsule collection combines Italian denim craftsmanship with modern cuts and design elements, including barrel fits, wide-leg silhouettes, and cropped jackets. Photographed by Johnny Dufort, the campaign captures Diesel’s powerful dynasty while highlighting its adaptability and playful approach to the contemporary world.

But see for yourself.

BULGARI AND THEIR ADDITIONS TO THE TUBOGAS LINE 

Can’t decide between gold or silver? Bulgari has introduced new additions to its iconic Tubogas line, blending the unexpected pairing of gold and steel—two materials that couldn’t feel more opposite. Yet the house masterfully brings them together, merging innovation, traditional craftsmanship, and a strong dedication to timeless design.

The latest collection expands with four new jewelry pieces, alongside two new Serpenti watches, which elegantly coil around the wrist in the signature winding silhouette.

And for those who prefer a more decisive choice, the new additions to the B.Zero1 line reinterpret both yellow and white gold into bold, architectural designs with a refined, contemporary edge.

ARMANI RESIDENCIES 

Armani partnered with Sierra Blanca Estates and Palya Invest to make its first move into the residential market. The Italian brand is planning 33 exclusive residences across a 50,000-square-metre site on the “Golden Mile,” the prestigious coastline connecting Marbella and Puerto Banús. According to Carlos Rodríguez, CEO of Sierra Blanca Estates, the project will “mark a turning point for the city.”

Palya Invest, the project’s second partner, is co-led by tennis legend Rafael Nadal, who previously fronted the campaigns for Emporio Armani Underwear and Armani Jeans in 2011. 

The development consists of a small number of sophisticated buildings spread across a vast landscape, designed to ensure both privacy and tranquility through a careful balance of openness and seclusion. Surrounded by nature, the residences offer panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea. Along the Golden Mile, architecture, nature, and design coexist in harmony, while the residences themselves reflect Armani’s core values of balance, harmony, and authenticity.

Armani’s vision of contemporary luxury also includes a state-of-the-art spa, a fully equipped gym, a private club, and a 24-hour concierge service. The project is scheduled for completion in 2028.

VOR: PROGRESSIVE RESTRAINT 

Founded in 2010 by Jörg Rohwer-Kahlmann and Andreas Klingseisen, VOR emerged from 1980s and 1990s street culture shaped by hip hop, techno, skateboarding, and graffiti. The Munich-based founders see sneakers not just as functional objects, but as markers of identity and cultural belonging.

Drawing on Rohwer-Kahlmann’s experience at PUMA and Klingseisen’s entrepreneurial background, VOR translates streetwear references into a refined, enduring design language. What started as sketches and prototypes in a Munich apartment developed into a brand defined by precision, restraint, and material quality. At its core, VOR follows a philosophy of “progressive restraint,” focusing on clean silhouettes, balanced proportions, and carefully selected materials rather than logos or seasonal trends. The result is a focus on longevity in both design and construction.

Today, VOR produces its sneakers in Portugal with specialised manufacturers that share its emphasis on craftsmanship, sustainability, and responsible production, positioning the brand between street culture, contemporary fashion, and product design.

NAPAPIJRI COLOR IN MOTION

Napapijri’s Spring-Summer 2026 collection moves through colour as a form of expression, where bold contrasts and unexpected combinations bring energy to every moment. From city streets to open landscapes, each piece is designed to stand out while adapting effortlessly to a dynamic, on-the-go lifestyle.

Lightweight outerwear, breathable fabrics, and versatile layers come together through colour blocking, creating visual impact without compromising function. More than just design, this season is about embracing colour with confidence and moving freely across spaces and experiences. Wherever you go, bring colour into motion.

Step into motion, Moose Knuckles Spring/Summer 2026 redefines layering as a fluid expression of movement, where each piece is designed to adapt, respond, and evolve with the rhythm of the day. As temperatures shift and moments unfold, the collection transitions effortlessly: silhouettes are lightweight, versatile, and built to be worn in combination or alone, moving seamlessly from cool mornings to warmer afternoons and into the evening.

Function meets flexibility with breathable fabrics, modular layers, and considered details engineered for constant change, balancing performance with a refined sense of style. In this interplay of structure and ease, the collection reflects a new approach to outerwear: dynamic, adaptable, and designed to move with you.

DOLCE & GABBANA ARTE MODA 
A book where art and fashion merge in a blend of knowledge, passion, creativity, and beauty. The pure distillation of the Dolce&Gabbana spirit.
Since the 1990s, Dolce&Gabbana has consistently taken inspiration from the world of art, drawing upon the evocative power of painting and sculpture to enrich its collections. This dialogue with the artistic world became even deeper and more structured with the launch of Alta Moda in 2012 and Alta Sartoria in 2015. These two key chapters in the fashion house’s history established an even closer and more conscious connection between sartorial creations and great masterpieces of art, celebrating their uniqueness, excellence, and timeless beauty.
The maison has successfully reinterpreted some of the most famous paintings in its most iconic garments: one need only think of the dress featuring Vincent van Gogh’s Sunflowers, or the cape embroidered with Caravaggio’s Basket of Fruit. 
This book richly illustrates all the artistic sources that inspire the fashion house: from classical art to Byzantine mosaics, from the great Italian Renaissance masters, such as Leonardo, Botticelli, Titian, and Raphael, to the various contemporary movements, like Dalí’s dreamlike surrealism, Jackson Pollock’s Action Painting, Basquiat’s street art, and Keith Haring’s graffiti.
