Style

There was a time when luxury sportswear meant a cashmere hoodie for a private flight, or a tennis skirt that never saw a racquet. Not anymore. This season, the line between the country club, the European runway, and the corner office didn’t just blur—it completely vanished. Luxury labels are reimagining athletic silhouettes with a polished, day-to-night appeal. From wide-leg trousers and refined knit dresses to laid-back athletic separates, fashion is getting beautifully prac

The transition into summer demands a wardrobe that prioritizes restraint over logos and texture over trends. This season, the "New Codes" are rooted in what we call The Unstudied Equestrian—a look that feels as at home in a Greenwich paddock as it does on a flight to Bermuda. Maniere De Voir Tailored Blazer We are moving away from the "coastal grandmother" aesthetic into something sharper, leaner, and more intentional, where the architecture of the garment takes center stage.

Every year on the first Monday in May, the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art transform into the most expensive, most exclusive, and most chaotic red carpet on the planet. As we gear up for the 2026 Met Gala, the buzz is already reaching a fever pitch. Whether you’re a seasoned fashionista or just here for the memes, we’ve rounded u

It is a fragrance that has always resisted trends, and that resistance is precisely what has allowed it to endure. Originally introduced in 1955, Lovely Patchouli 55 was a bold departure from the floral-centric women’s fragrances of the time. Rooted in earthy patchouli, wit

This year, as the Maison celebrates 130 years of its iconic canvas, the festivities are getting a seasonal glow-up. Moving away from the classic cognac tones of winter, LV has unveiled fresh, spring-ready colorways across three hallmark capsule collections: Monogram Origine, VVN, and Time Trunk. Whether you’re eyeing a Mother’s Day masterpiece or a "treat yourself"

The French love affair with black — winter minimalism at its most refined Black, in France, is never merely a color. It is a posture. A philosophy. A quiet declaration of restraint and confidence. While winter elsewhere erupts in sparkle and excess, the French retreat inward — returning, season after season, to the purity of black. In Paris, it is not worn to disappear. It is worn to be precise. From the slate mornings along the Seine to candlelit dinners in Saint-Germain-d

NEW MOVEMENT, FLUIDITY AND SENSUALITY IN YELLOW GOLD Intended as a challenge to Clash de Cartier’s geometry, Cartier has designed entirely flexible pieces, including the collection’s first-ever yellow gold versions of necklaces and bracelets previously developed in rose gold.

Louis Vuitton’s iconic Monogram is officially turning 130, and darling, she’s never looked better. Born in 1896 from the visionary mind of Georges Vuitton as a love letter to his father, the Monogram has survived world shifts, trend cycles, and the transition from steamships to p

Image by Phillips Some watches tell time. This one makes a point—literally. The idea began, as many great ones do, over wine. During a dinner at his Napa estate, Francis Ford Coppola posed a mischievous challenge to independent watchmaking legend François-Paul Journe: could a watch tell time using an actual hand? Not a symbolic hand, not a stylized pointer—but a miniature, articulated mechanical hand with fingers that indicate the hour. Journe, known for both his technical r

Against the backdrop of the snow-dusted Alps, Saint Laurent Rive Droite unveiled its 2025 "Snow Edition"—a collection that proves Anthony Vaccarello’s vision of Parisian elegance is not confined to the city’s limestone boulevards, but is equally at home on the world’s most formidable peaks. The reveal signaled an am

For years, Charlotte shoppers watched and waited. Now, the moment has finally arrived.

Bottega Veneta has extended its world of quiet luxury into scent with the launch of its Mezzanotte fragrance collection, introduced in October 2025. Under the direction of Matthieu Blazy, the house brings its signature restraint, craftsmanship, and tactile elegance into a trio of fragrances designed to feel like moods rather than traditional perfume statements. The collection consists of three scents: Good Morning Midnight, Hinoki, and Almost Dawn. Each was developed with mas

When a legacy design meets the moment, magic happens. With its new Love Unlimited collection, Cartier takes the iconic screw-head motif of the 1969 Love bracelet and spins it into something fluid, shareable, and perfectly timed for the way we live now. From Lock-In to Link-Up In 1969, designer Aldo Cipullo created the original Love bracelet — a close-fitting oval secured by a tiny screwdriver, symbolizing a commitment worn day in and day out. Fast-forward six decades, and Car

Luxury always finds a way to leave its trace—even when history tries to bury it. One of the most fascinating examples surfaced not in the gilded salons of Europe but from the depths of the Atlantic, tied to Charleston’s Civil War past. The story begins in 1864, when the Mary Celestia prepared to slip out with contraband cargo bound for Charleston. She was a blockade runner—sleek, fast, and designed to out- wit Union ships patrolling the harbor. On board were the usual necessi
