Otra Sunglasses: A Guide to Its Best Frames

Otra Sunglasses: A Guide to Its Best Frames

Otra is the Byron Bay sunglasses label from the couple who sold Quay Australia and could not stay away from frames. I like it because every shape feels decided on, not borrowed from the trend of the week.

By Pariah Jewelry

By Pariah Jewelry

By Pariah was founded in London in 2016 by Sophie Karg, after a career in luxury fashion communications and a longstanding interest in materials. Karg named the brand after a National Geographic story about remote parts of the Caribbean and began with raw stones, recycled metals and sculptural forms. The jewelry feels considered but not over-polished, as if the material is allowed to keep its weather.

Balenciaga Shoes and Bags

Balenciaga Shoes and Bags

Cristóbal Balenciaga opened his first atelier in San Sebastián in 1917, then moved the whole operation to Paris in 1937 once the Spanish Civil War made staying home impossible. What he built there was less about decoration than engineering: the sack dress, the cocoon coat, silhouettes cut with such structural control that Dior reportedly called him the master of the rest of them.

OSIS STUDIO Tops: The Pieces I'd Wear on Repeat

OSIS STUDIO Tops: The Pieces I'd Wear on Repeat

OSIS STUDIO is Osi Shoham Ettlinger's women's label, with a Los Angeles ease and a soft spot for good cashmere, wool, cotton and silk. I like how it dresses a woman for herself, so this edit starts with the tops I would wear on repeat.

Ann Demeulemeester Shoes

Ann Demeulemeester Shoes

Ann Demeulemeester builds a dark romantic wardrobe from elongated lines, leather, asymmetry and the tension between softness and severity. Founded in Antwerp in 1985 by Ann Demeulemeester and Patrick Robyn, the house grew alongside the Antwerp Six and a deep conversation with poetry, music and visual art. The collection is for dressing with intention, not disappearing into the background.

Christian Louboutin Shoes

Christian Louboutin Shoes

Christian Louboutin opened his first Paris boutique in November 1991, in a small arcade near the Louvre, after years spent designing shoes for Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent and a detour into landscape gardening. The whole enterprise turns on one stubborn idea, a lacquered red sole that turns the underside of a shoe into the signature, so a heel is recognizable from across a room before anyone sees the front of it.

De Beers London Jewelry

De Beers London Jewelry

De Beers London brings the diamond house’s long relationship with the stone into a more modern, design-led frame. The wider De Beers story reaches back to 1888, while the jewellery house itself launched in 2001 and now pairs London energy with southern African roots. Here, rings, earrings and necklaces make the case for diamonds that feel considered rather than over-explained.

One-Piece Swimsuits, Bikinis and Cover-Ups

One-Piece Swimsuits, Bikinis and Cover-Ups

One-pieces, bikini sets and cover-ups for a beach trip from Tulum to Sayulita. It is for anyone packing a week of swim that mixes and matches.

Miu Miu Shoes and Knitwear

Miu Miu Shoes and Knitwear

Miuccia Prada conceived Miu Miu in 1992 and launched it publicly in 1993, naming it after her own childhood nickname and opening its first boutique on Via della Spiga in Milan. The debut collection was cowgirl-themed, fringed suede and patchwork prairie skirts, a deliberate swerve away from the tailored minimalism of the main Prada line so she would have somewhere to be irreverent without diluting it.

Diotima Knitwear

Diotima Knitwear

Rachel Scott launched Diotima in 2021 after building a relationship with Jamaican craftswomen during the first months of the pandemic. The New York label joins Jamaican hand crochet with tailoring, draping and a clear interest in Caribbean cultural history. These are clothes with a visible hand in them, made for evenings when texture matters as much as silhouette.

The Row Bags and Shoes

The Row Bags and Shoes

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen founded The Row in New York in 2006, after Ashley spent a year trying to design an ideal, no-logo white T-shirt and the pair built it into a seven-piece debut collection that Barneys bought in full. They named it after Savile Row and, for its first three years, gave no interviews about it at all, betting the clothes could carry the label without their names on it.

Ole Lynggaard Earrings: 18-Karat Gold Pieces Shaped by Nature

Ole Lynggaard Earrings: 18-Karat Gold Pieces Shaped by Nature

Ole Lynggaard earrings come in 18-karat gold, from Snakes with turquoise to Boho with quartz and tourmaline. The Copenhagen house began in a small Hellerup workshop in 1963, and I look at how nature shapes each piece.

Ileana Makri Jewelry

Ileana Makri Jewelry

Ileana Makri launched her eponymous jewelry line in 1998 after studying design at the Gemological Institute of America and returning to the gemstone language she had loved since childhood. Her Athens-based work is made with local artisans and balances fine materials with a sense of movement, from cord and beads to diamonds, enamel and colored stones. The collection reads like modern talismans rather than a parade of formal jewelry.

Old Money Aesthetic Without The Costume

Old Money Aesthetic Without The Costume

The old money aesthetic works best when it reads as quiet, practical dressing rather than a costume. An old money aesthetic wardrobe is built from clear structure, tactile fabrics, and a restrained

Le Monde Béryl Shoes

Le Monde Béryl Shoes

Le Monde Béryl makes shoes for the long way around, with ballet flats, Mary Janes, mules and boots that treat comfort as a design problem rather than a compromise. Founded in 2016 by Lily Atherton Hanbury and Katya Shyfrin, the London label began with the Venetian gondolier slipper as its point of departure. Each pair is hand-finished in Italy, with the kind of detail that reads better in motion than in a product shot.

Prada Shoes

Prada Shoes

Mario Prada and his brother Martino opened a leather goods shop called Fratelli Prada in Milan's Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in 1913, selling imported English trunks and travel accessories to the city's elite. His granddaughter Miuccia Prada took over in 1978 and, working with Patrizio Bertelli, turned a nylon backpack into the idea that a utilitarian material could sit at the center of a luxury house.

Marla Aaron Jewelry

Marla Aaron Jewelry

Marla Aaron left a 25-year advertising career at 40 to recast a climbing carabiner into precious metal, launching her New York lock jewelry line in 2012. Notes on the necklaces, pendants and bracelets built around that working lock, and how to wear a mechanism instead of just a motif.

Olaplex Bonding Oil and the Chemistry Behind the Numbered Bottles

Olaplex Bonding Oil and the Chemistry Behind the Numbered Bottles

Olaplex Bonding Oil is the brand's lightweight, heat-protecting finishing oil, and like every Olaplex product it carries the patented bond building ingredient. Here it is with the other leave-ins, the numbered repair steps and four other hair oils I compare it with.

Anine Bing Jeans

Anine Bing Jeans

Anine Bing launched out of a Silver Lake garage in 2012 with roughly ten looks, built on a following the Danish former model and musician had already spent a decade building online. The brand's first real hit, the Charlie boot, arrived within months and did more to get the label into stores than any lookbook could have. What started as a ten-piece capsule is now a full wardrobe built on the same instinct: pare a look down to its most photographable version.

Maryam Nassir Zadeh Shoes

Maryam Nassir Zadeh Shoes

Maryam Nassir Zadeh opened her Lower East Side store in 2008 and launched her in-house clothing and shoe collection in 2012. Her background in textiles and styling shows up in pieces that make a complete look without looking overworked. The line’s downtown ease is less about minimalism than knowing exactly where to stop.

Odd Muse Dresses: The Pieces Worth the Price

Odd Muse Dresses: The Pieces Worth the Price

Odd Muse is the London dress label Aimee Smale started in her bedroom in 2020, for clothes with real shape and weight. I like how seriously it takes repeat wear, and this edit is about the pieces I would reach for twice.

Faithfull Dresses

Faithfull Dresses

Faithfull began in 2014, founded by Sarah-Jane Abrahams and Helle Them-Enger after they met in Bali. The label still works between Bali and Sydney, turning travel references, stripes and sun-washed colour into clothes that can handle more than one destination. Its strongest idea is simple summer dressing with enough texture and shape to feel considered rather than precious.

Métier Bags

Métier Bags

Métier was founded in London in 2017 by Melissa Morris, who came to bags through sculpture, merchandising and a frustration with losing essentials inside them. The brand prototypes are tested to simulate years of use, with storage and movement treated as design problems rather than afterthoughts. These are bags for people who want their logistics to look composed.

Oseree Swimwear

Oseree Swimwear

Oseree was created in 2015 by Isabella Cavallin and Jannine Vinci, who brought together marketing studies and design training in London with an Italian beachwear sensibility. The label is known for metallic Lurex, lace and swim pieces that treat the shoreline as a stage rather than a backdrop. This is resort dressing with a deliberate flash of drama, best approached as separates that can travel into the evening.

Nookie Dresses: Where to Start with Occasionwear

Nookie Dresses: Where to Start with Occasionwear

Nookie is the Sydney label of sequins, sculpted gowns and a good-time attitude, built by two friends with a garage and a lot of nerve. I picked the dresses I would actually want on a big night out.

Lisa Yang Knitwear

Lisa Yang Knitwear

Lisa Yang builds a whole wardrobe around the quiet authority of cashmere, where texture does the work that logos usually volunteer for. Founded in Stockholm in 2014 by Lisa Yang and Samuel Stenberg, the label connects Yang's Inner Mongolian heritage with a distinctly Scandinavian ease. The palette may be calm, but the proportions and knit techniques keep the clothes from becoming background noise.

LOEWE Perfumes Fragrance

LOEWE Perfumes Fragrance

LOEWE Perfumes turns scent into a visual and material language, moving from botanical notes to candles, soaps and sculptural vessels. The house entered fragrance in 1972 with L de Loewe, then reshaped the category through the Botanical Rainbow and the home scents inspired by a vegetable garden. It is a collection for people who want perfume to feel like part of the room, not merely an invisible cloud around it.

Noon & Moon Home Decor: Pieces Worth a Look

Noon & Moon Home Decor: Pieces Worth a Look

Noon & Moon is a Los Angeles label of hand-painted glassware, dinnerware and vases that treats the table as a small stage. I like how much personality it gives to an ordinary breakfast, and this edit is the vases, cups and serving pieces I would gather first.
