ACE & TATE THROUGH GOLDEN AUTUMN

Summer might be over, but there’s still such a thing as Golden October. Dutch eyewear brand Ace & Tate introduces four new frames to keep you looking stylish in the fleeting autumn sunshine. Meet Carmen, defined by a minimalist design, flowing lines and curved temple tips, alongside the slightly bolder Salome, featuring round, oversized lenses and a fluid, directional silhouette. For men, there’s Henry, a timeless take on the classic panto shape, or Ronnie, a 70s-inspired statement frame that brings a touch of retro flair. Whether you prefer understated elegance or a bolder look, these four frames are made for those golden autumn days.

HANRO: SOFT MOTION 

The premium lingerie and nightwear brand HANRO introduces their Fall/Winter 2026 collection: With Soft Motion, the brand explores the intimate connection between body, movement, and fabric. Inspired by the expressive language of dance, flowing silhouettes and luxurious materials such as cashmere, wool, and silk merge comfort with understated elegance. Introducing its men’s and women’s lines, Soft Motion goes beyond fashion to offer a sensory experience that celebrates freedom, softness, and the beauty of movement.

The collection was celebrated with an exclusive dinner at Clärchen´s Ballhaus.

Starring Jennifer Beals and METTE, the “JOY IS A POWER MOVE” campaign celebrates movement as a powerful form of self-expression, embracing the freedom, confidence, and joy that come with it.

This collection celebrates each brands´ individuality whilst exchanging two distinct design perspectives.

UGG® INTRODUCES: LOAFERS BY JW ANDERSON

UGG® and JW Anderson team up for their first collaboration, reimagining the brand’s iconic Classic Boot and Tasman through a loafer-inspired lens that merges signature comfort with unexpected proportions, rounded toes and box-stitching. Fronted by musician and producer Dev Hynes (Blood Orange), the campaign explores the beauty of everyday rituals, blurring the line between the ordinary and the extraordinary through a playful take on familiar silhouettes.

ZENDAYA X ON: A CINEMATIC COLLABORATION

Announcing a new chapter in their collaboration, Hollywood star Zendaya and Swiss premium sportswear brand On have just launched their second co-created collection.

The looks were created with Law Roach, Zendaya’s longtime creative partner and stylist. The result is a collection designed for all-day comfort, combining On’s performance expertise with the distinctive style of Zendaya and Law Roach. Oversized crewnecks and sweatpants feature ruching and bungee-cord details that allow for a versatile range of shapes and silhouettes. A custom-developed python print adds statement accents to a bodysuit, fitted long-sleeve top and half-zip anorak.

“Cinematic storytelling has been a central part of our partnership with Zendaya from the very beginning,” says Alex Griffin, Chief Marketing Officer at On. The collection is brought to life in an immersive campaign film inspired by the visual language and dynamism of classic action films.

NEW INTERIOR STUDIO: ARWENN 

Berlin gains a new interior design studio: ARWENN opens its doors on 16 October to all curious design enthusiasts. The pieces stand out through their intelligent and distinctive design. Crafted from timeless, durable materials, with a minimised volume and carbon footprint when it comes to packaging, ARWENN perfectly meets the expectations of today’s conscious consumers.

Their products offer lasting value and sustainable appeal without losing any of their aesthetic appeal, as manifested in pieces such as the Moon Lamp or the Turn Chair.

The store opening will take place on Friday, 16 October, from 6pm onwards at Friedrichstraße 172, Berlin.

OUTSIDE LINGERIE

Lingerie is stepping out from underneath it all. From Prada and Miu Miu to Fashion Week street style, lace, bralettes and bodysuits are becoming part of the look – paired with tailoring, denim and everyday staples.

Aubade embraces the trend with its FW26 collection Vertige, blurring the line between lingerie and ready-to-wear. Sheer lace, Lurex details and corset-inspired silhouettes are designed to be seen, from lace bodysuits under blazers to slip dresses styled with boots and coats. Feminine, effortless and made to leave the bedroom behind.

ZODIAQUE 

The female-led lingerie brand has expanded its knitwear line with two new designs: the Hestia V Neck, featuring a generous V-shaped neckline, a defined waist and loose, soft sleeves; and the Triangle Wrap, a versatile scarf crafted from a soft wool-cashmere blend that lends itself to multiple styling options.

Both designs reflect the brand’s core principle of creating elevated loungewear that doesn’t look like traditional loungewear, yet can effortlessly transition from a relaxed look at home to an elegant evening outfit.

BOSS BY BECKHAM: REIMAGINING THE BRITISH WINTER WARDROBE

BOSS invited us for an intimate lunch with David Beckham for the launch of his fall collection, a collaboration between BOSS and the legendary former footballer and style icon. The collection reflects what Beckham calls “his perfect wardrobe”, he was in conversation with Daniel Kearns, his creative collaborator, who will join the team of BOSS x David Beckham. They shared a beautiful moment on the future of their collaboration and creative thinking and where they find their inspiration together as a team. Many of the looks draw on Beckham’s fashion heritage, revisiting some of his most iconic silhouettes, now reinterpreted in contemporary fabrics. As Beckham explains: “It’s about referencing how I naturally dress, whether I’m in London or in the countryside, and bringing those influences into BOSS BY BECKHAM.” 

For the launch event, Beckham embodied the collection in a full look, pairing a dark brown leather jacket with an olive green wool/cashmere hoodie and black leather trainers, a modern take on the understated British wardrobe that lies at the heart of this collaboration.

MYKITA AT PARIS FASHION WEEK

MYKITA continues to make its mark on the fashion calendar, with two collaborations presented during Paris Fashion Week. The Berlin-based eyewear brand joined forces with Vaquera for the label’s Spring/Summer 2027 runway show, transforming two classic American eyewear archetypes through exaggerated proportions and unexpected constructions. MYKITA’s precise engineering meets Vaquera’s experimental design language, resulting in the elongated aviator and amplified cat-eye silhouettes.

Also presented during Paris Fashion Week, MYKITA’s ongoing collaboration with Berlin-based fashion and media brand 032c enters its latest chapter with BRANDLEY, created for the 032c Mode STABLE collection. Inspired by the movement and precision of equestrian sport, the streamlined MYLON® design translates riding codes into a lightweight, technical silhouette. Together, the two collaborations highlight MYKITA’s continued dialogue with fashion and its ability to combine innovative eyewear construction with distinct creative perspectives.

Fifteen years ago, Silencio opened its doors in Paris and quickly became a landmark for the city’s creative community. Its founder is French entrepreneur Arnaud Frisch. To mark its 15th anniversary, Silencio is bringing its concept to Berlin with a temporary pop-up in the former Watergate space. Opening on 30 October 2026, Silencio Berlin will bring together music, art, cinema and design while connecting with the city’s creative scene. Following the opening party, our Deputy Editor in Chief Antonia Maria Schmidt sat down with Frisch to talk about Berlin nightlife, the idea behind the new space, his long-standing friendship with Mumi Haiati and the evolution of Silencio over the past 15 years.

AS: I’m curious, how do you see Berlin nightlife?

AF: What Berlin has is unique, and it’s now official: the city’s Technokultur has been recognised as intangible cultural heritage. And it comes with things no other city can offer, spaces you simply don’t find elsewhere and a freedom that has no equivalent anywhere in the world. That’s also why we’ve spent years bringing Berlin to Paris rather than the other way around. At our Parisian club FVTVR we regularly host Berlin collectives and clubs: BCCO, Pornceptual, Primal Instinct, Multisex, RSO…

AS: You’ve spent so much time in Paris and now you’ll be spending more time in Berlin. What feels different between the two cities?

AF: Berlin is much bigger than Paris, with parks and green space everywhere, and you feel it immediately. Paris is a finished city, in the sense that it was built long ago and nothing is left over. You work inside what already exists.

AS: You collaborated with Studio Karhard for the club.

AF: Studio Karhard made this project possible. Thomas Karsten knows this city and everything that opening a club here involves. Marc Leschelier’s work is fascinating: brutalist, sometimes uncomfortable and very poetic. Then Studio Raito did the lighting.

GUCCI EYEWEAR FALL/WINTER 2026 COLLECTION

For Fall/Winter 2026, Gucci explores a quieter side of eyewear, with portraits capturing its protagonists in reflective, everyday moments. The collection moves between black acetate frames, round metal glasses and rectangular sunglasses, with details such as the Horsebit and Double G referencing the House’s signature codes. The Gucci Eyewear collection is available since September.

DR. MARTENS X RICK OWENS: NEW SILHOUETTES, FAMILIAR CODES

Dr. Martens and Rick Owens continue their long-running collaboration with a new set of silhouettes. This season introduces a pull-on boot and the Megalace mule, alongside the return of the sold-out Steel Toe boot from last year. All three styles sit on Dr. Martens’ oversized Quad sole and come in black, waxy Republic leather. The collection launched on September 18.

G-STAR X TOMBOGO: THE DENIM 004
For the fourth edition of G-STAR’s THE DENIM series, Los Angeles-based studio TOMBOGO turns the idea of straps, buckles and utility systems into denim. The result is a highly constructed pair with layered panels, concealed pockets and oversized metal hardware.
THE DENIM 004 brings together TOMBOGO’s technical, experimental approach and G-STAR’s longstanding focus on utility. The limited-edition jeans are available worldwide from September 2026.

MARELLA X CORA CORRÉ
For Fall/Winter 2026, Marella teams up with British model and fashion figure Cora Corré for a capsule collection shaped by her British heritage. Classic tailoring meets a lighter, more contemporary approach, with the wardrobe moving between black, white, chocolate brown and navy, punctuated by bold red. The collection launched worldwide on September 19 and is available through Marella stores and online.

THE NORTH FACE X AIMÉ LEON DORE
The North Face and Aimé Leon Dore return for a second collaboration for Fall/Winter 2026. The capsule collection brings together The North Face’s outdoor expertise with Aimé Leon Dore’s New York aesthetic, reworking familiar styles from the brand’s archive.
The collection includes updated versions of the Mountain Jacket, Nuptse and Denali, alongside technical pieces in GORE-TEX, fleece and Pertex, as well as footwear and accessories. The collection launched on September 17.

PLATTE OPENING

On September 11, PLATTE.Berlin marked its fifth anniversary with an evening dedicated to three different facets of Berlin’s contemporary creative scene. The celebration brought together fashion label Haderlump, photographer Sven Marquardt, and Berlin-based artist, DJ and producer Luca Eck.

As part of Berlin Art Week’s collective Featured Night, the event reflected the creative spirit that has defined PLATTE over the past five years. Fashion, art, music and community came together for an evening highlighting the diverse perspectives that continue to shape Berlin’s cultural landscape.

A RUNNER’S BEST FRIEND: NIKE’S ALPHAFLY 4

Nike has just unveiled the lightest, most responsive Alphafly yet. Built for marathoners chasing long distances and personal bests, the Alphafly 4 refines every component of its predecessors to deliver a smoother, more efficient race-day experience. It returns 10% more of a runner’s energy, pairs an Atomknit upper with ZoomX LT foam, and features an updated Air Zoom unit. Available in stores and online from today.

LARDINI AUTUMN-WINTER 2026/27

For Autumn-Winter 2026/27, Lardini goes back to its roots. Le Origini brings the brand’s longstanding focus on Italian craftsmanship into a more contemporary context, balancing traditional tailoring with modern functionality and technical details. Soft, tactile fabrics—from brushed wool and cashmere to velvet and fine silk—give the collection a sense of warmth and depth.

Tailored coats, knitwear and outerwear are kept clean and understated, with relaxed volumes and subtle details taking centre stage. Rather than reinventing itself completely, Lardini builds on what it already knows, showing how tradition can evolve without losing its character.

THE BEAUTY OF BALLROOM – FILM PREMIERE & LIVE PERFORMANCE

THE BEAUTY OF BALLROOM explores a young yet remarkably vibrant, bold, and diverse Ballroom scene in Southeast Asia. At its heart are three protagonists who come from very different walks of life, yet are united by a shared passion: Voguing as a powerful means of self-expression.

The premiere will take place on Monday, September 24. A special cinema screening will be held on September 21 in Kino International in Berlin, featuring a live dance performance by protagonist Aurora Sun Labeija, Legendary Mother Leo Saint Laurent, Black Pearl 007 and Gwapo Laveaux. Additional screenings can be found here.

CARHARTT WIP FALL/WINTER 2026

For Fall/Winter 2026, Carhartt WIP takes a look at chaos from the other end. Directed by French-Canadian filmmaker and photographer Alex Acy, the campaign unfolds in reverse, turning everyday scenes into a sequence of events that seem to undo themselves.

Three friends, a dog, a car, a couch and a few cans of paint become part of the story, while violet splashes and stains run through the film and its imagery. Set against the collection’s deep burgundy, green and navy tones, the campaign plays with the idea of time, repetition and cause and effect. The result is surreal, slightly chaotic and deliberately offbeat.

AN ITALIAN AUTUMN

This autumn, ARKET looks to Milan for inspiration. In Brera, effortless Italian elegance meets a relaxed heritage aesthetic, with lightweight coats, checked car coats and peacoats styled with straight-leg denim and polished loafers.

The palette stays between beige, brown and navy, with accents of bright red and fresh cotton blue. A navy suit, a knotted shirt collar or ARKET’s black-and-white striped Gondolieri Shirt add the subtle details that make the look distinctly Italian. More from the collection can be seen here.
