    Special Dispatch - MFW SS27 (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Milan’s schedule is always a little lighter than Paris, and for me personally, it is even lighter than London. Milan is dominated by bigger, commercially successful brands that I don’t necessarily need to see in person, and bigger shows where, quite often, only one person from the magazine can be accommodated, so my boss goes to the majority of those, while I get the time to enjoy the city a bit. I leave gaps in my schedule to gorge myself on pasta and bread and olive oil in beautiful places pop

    Special Dispatch - LFW SS27 (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Last season I got really worried—it looked like LFW was on its last legs; the schedule was scarce, many people were missing, and the shows were, often, unimaginative. I was thinking that if its last anchors, Simone Rocha and Burberry, departed for Paris, as many others had, it would definitely cease to exist, as there would simply be no point for the international press to come.Luckily, thanks to the hard work of the new BFC head, Laura Weir, things have definitely started to pick up.

Considering I already have shitloads of clothes, what makes me press ‘buy’ or pre-order something from a brand after seeing the show?My answer, usually, is that since I already have all my everyday bases covered (i.e. a good coat—or a dozen—a raincoat, a leather jacket, a great pair of jeans, a good suit, some nice shirts, a killer black dress, a perfect white T-shirt—obviously, you might need a few—

    Guest Edition - Tess Bruns (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    Tess is one of the many women I crossed paths with and befriended through our mutual love for Old Celine. The Philophiles are truly a global community that unites smart, strong-minded and passionate women who don’t want to dress for the male gaze, but instead go for stand-out pieces that other women will appreciate and, most importantly, that they themselves love.Tess Bruns is one of them. I first came across her Instagram page, drawn in by the highly individual way she wore her Celine pieces, h

    AW26 Shopping List (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    I always say, “Love summer, hate everything else,” a quote I stole from Leandra Medine because this is exactly how I feel about it. But I also love September because, in fashion, it is like a new year. New resolutions, new energy to get back to dressing—layering, matching colours, wearing trousers, structured shoes and coats!
