Made from organic silk, the four scarves available are named after the seasons, each featuring the lush beauty of Highgrove Gardens with the royal residence as its pièce de résistance.

The artistic genius behind these masterpieces is none other than Sammi Lynch, a rising star fresh out of the Royal Drawing School. Sammi’s brush and ink dance across the fabric, translating the enchanting landscape into a visual symphony of space, texture and light.

But the fun doesn’t stop there. Burberry is not just in the business of making you look fabulous; they’re in cahoots with The King’s Foundation, the guardian of Highgrove Gardens. Together, they’re on a mission to support the arts and pass on the torch of craft and artistry to the next generation. Cue the applause for style and substance!

So, if you’re ready to channel your inner royal and wrap yourself in the spirit of Highgrove, these scarves are your ticket to regal chic. The collection is up for grabs at Burberry stores, Highgrove stores and the online realm. Shop here.

What’s in the secret sauce, you ask? Well, first of all, there are three crosses on the shoe, inspired by handmade tailoring stitches. These crosses hold the power to turn your outfit from a fashion faux pas to fashion phenomena.

If that doesn’t have you scrambling for your wallet, the reinforced heel loop is like the superhero cape of the shoe world. Need to pull off a swift change between conquering the boardroom and conquering a mountain? The Triple Stitch Vetta has got your back.

Enhanced cushioning means you can literally walk on clouds. Well, not literally, but close enough. And for those who like to live life on the edge (of icy sidewalks), the Vibram Arctic Grip sole provides more traction than a cat with Velcro paws. So, go ahead, dance on that frozen pond – the Vetta has you covered.

In essence, the Triple Stitch Vetta is the swiss army knife of shoes. It’s the ultimate statement piece, screaming, “I’m sophisticated, but I’m also ready to escape a bear if need be.” Shop here.

GOLDWIN 0’S ENQUIRY #5.2 

Formulating a world where fashion meets technology, Goldwin 0 is at the centre. The experimental platform of the Goldwin brand – a team that probably sleeps with art encyclopaedias under their pillows – Goldwin 0 has just dropped the second edition of its Enquiry Campaign, entitled #5.2, featuring the AW23 collection.

The Enquiry Campaign – which promises to unfold over the course of a year – is a space for creators to experiment, prototype, and explore new forms of practice. The collection, on the other hand, is the result of the teamups. Enquiry #5.2 is a deep dive into Goldwin’s design philosophy and archives. Nur Abbas takes the helm as the design director, steering the creative ship alongside photographer Miraj Patel – who worked with Nur Abbas on the clothing designs – into uncharted waters.

The collection itself is a concoction of recycled down jackets with 3D baffle construction, knit pullovers and pants that somehow merge the elegance of tailored pants with the utility of climbing gear.

Enquiry #5.2 is supervised by OK-RM, the mastermind overseeing this carnival of creativity. It’s not a collection; it’s a manifesto. It’s like Goldwin 0 looked at the fashion rulebook, chuckled, tore it up, and then danced on the confetti scraps. Shop here. 

‘PHET-CHA-BUN’ A FILM BY O THONGTHAI X CIESAY 

Brace yourselves for “Phet-Cha-Bun”, a cinematic masterpiece brought to you by the dynamic duo of internationally renowned jeweller O Thongthai and director-extraordinaire Ciesay. More than a film, it’s a visual love letter to Thailand, with a side of psychedelic rock and handcrafted bling.

In this gem of a collaboration, O Thongthai, has traded her bling for a director’s chair, teaming up with her long-time friend, Ciesay. The result? A film that’s a feast for the senses set in a mysterious remote village, far from the overpopulated, touristy parts.

O Thongthai comments, “It’s not the typical ping pong shows, beach holiday, Thai boxing images that people conjure up when they think of Thailand.” Nope, this film goes beyond the clichés and into the heart of a village so remote that even Google Maps gets lost.

The film showcases O Thongthai’s handcrafted collection, proving that bling isn’t just for red carpets. Craftsmanship is the name of the game, from forging knives to hand-framing glass found on Thai beaches. It’s a whole DIY vibe, with the soundtrack blaring in the background.

Plus, you can take a piece of the cinematic magic home with you. O Thongthai’s handcrafted collection – made using natural Thai materials and stones and featured in the film – is available for purchase on her website, priced at £300 each. Here’s the kicker – all proceeds will be donated to UNICEF. Shop here. 

GERRIT JACOB’S AW23 COLLECTION: SUBURBIA MEETS SEXY

In the enigmatic landscape of Gerrit Jacob‘s latest autumn/winter collection, the air is thick with the essence of nocturnal solitude in suburbia. Jacob, the sultan of sartorial subversion, has once again dared to plunge into the depths of existential crisis. This collection crosses the boundaries between sentimentality and new, mature heights-because nothing says “I’ve grown up” like a leather jacket with an attitude.

But what really sets this collection on fire is the meticulous airbrushing. Precision meets chaos as contradictory contours of silhouettes and iconoclastic motifs dance on new fabrics, giving traditional luxury a gritty makeover. Skin-tight jersey? Hot. Oversized white leather? Hotter. It’s a sensory rollercoaster, where fashion meets rebellion and asks, “Why not both?”

Gerrit Jacob, sheds light on working with Matt Lambert, the wizard of intimacy and sensuality. In Gerrit’s world, colour isn’t just a backdrop; it’s a character with a role more significant than any print. 

So, buckle up, because Gerrit Jacob’s AW23 collection is a rebellious manifesto, a proclamation that suburbia can be sexy, and leather can be your ticket to the wild side. Discover the collection here

This dynamic duo isn’t just making underwear; they’re crafting an aquatic experience, a wearable ode to the wonders beneath the waves.

The Siren Collection is not just about what’s underneath, it’s also about what stands out. This launch marks the grand debut of Siren Basic’s revamped logo – a symbol of maturity, elevation, and the brand’s commitment to pushing boundaries. It’s not just lingerie either, it’s a statement; a visual manifesto of breaking free from the mundane.

Siren Basics isn’t just an underwear brand; it’s a philosophy. Founded in 2021, the Liangs believe in the magic of beautiful, affordable lingerie for everyone. From size S to 3X, each piece is priced at a wallet-friendly £10. It’s a rebellion against the notion that luxury should come with a hefty price tag. With Siren Basics, luxury becomes a birthright.
