MIU MIU CONTROLLED CHAOS

Miu Miu’s 2026 leathergoods campaign unfolds as a study in youthful defiance and quiet transformation. Shot by Steven Meisel and starring Gigi Hadid, the narrative follows a self-possessed heroine reimagining a bourgeois interior through her presence alone. Her shifting expressions—by turns playful, introspective, and confrontational—inject vitality into a restrained, almost anachronistic setting.

At the center, the Arcadie and Wander bags emerge as both accessories and statements, rendered in Miu Miu’s signature matelassé leather. Their tactile forms and bold palette subtly disrupt the muted décor, reinforcing a dialogue between tradition and individuality.

Under the creative direction of Miuccia Prada, the campaign crystallizes a graphic, controlled world where personality asserts itself as the ultimate luxury.


ECHO OF AN IDENTITY

Beauty and the Bag: the House unveils a new campaign starring Kate Moss for the Gucci Borsetto and Emily Ratajkowski for the Gucci Giglio.
Gucci introduces a campaign dedicated to the timeless allure of its handbags, exploring the instinctive bond between object and desire. At its core lies a simple idea: when a bag enters someone’s world, it begins to fully captivate their mind. Photographed by Mert and Marcus, the campaign features intimate portraits highlighting the connection between each woman and her bag. Kate Moss embodies the Borsetto, while Emily Ratajkowski carries the Giglio. The Borsetto appears in GG canvas, brown suede calfskin, and black leather, while the Giglio comes in dark brown, black, and GG canvas. Gucci silhouettes echo each model’s identity, balancing minimalism with the omnipresence of the GG motif. The campaign extends into films directed by Bardia Zeinali, where the narrative becomes more immersive and surreal.
The bags multiply, surrounding the protagonists in an almost dreamlike accumulation.
Across images and moving visuals, materials, textures, and lines repeat, constantly drawing the eye back to the bag as the ultimate centerpiece.


PLAY OF FORMS

For Spring/Summer 2026, Jean Paul Gaultier presents the “JUNIOR” campaign, introducing Duran Lantink’s first ready-to-wear collection for the House.
Photographed by Inez & Vinoodh, the visuals bring together Leon Dame and a cast of models in a series of vivid, character-led scenes. Inspired by the late 1980s, the campaign revisits a moment defined by bold expression and distinctive silhouettes.
The imagery highlights a strong sense of attitude, where glamour meets a playful, almost theatrical energy.
Signature elements of the House—marinière stripes, tattoo mesh, and trompe-l’œil—are reinterpreted through Lantink’s contemporary lens.
Garments are brought to life through movement and interaction, emphasizing their fluid and evolving nature.
Throughout the campaign, identities shift, with gender and roles explored as something open and undefined.
Styled by Jodie Barnes, each look contributes to a narrative built on contrast and transformation.
The result is a series of images that feel both precise and instinctive.
“JUNIOR” signals a renewed vision for the House—grounded in its codes, yet driven by a forward-looking perspective.


MAISON MARGIELA IN JOY

Maison Margiela presents Joy, a cinematic piece created for the Spring Summer 2026 campaign.
Set inside the Théâtre de la Villette in Paris, the film unfolds as a poetic encounter between music, youth, and fashion.
Composer and pianist Max Richter performs an original score alongside 43 young musicians from the Association Orchestre à l’École. Over three months of rehearsals culminate in a performance that celebrates collective energy and creative freedom. The concert hall becomes an unexpected playground, where swings, slides and climbing frames disrupt the traditional setting. This playful intervention transforms the space into a landscape of imagination and movement.
Richter appears throughout the film wearing looks from the Maison Margiela Co-Ed Spring Summer 2026 collection. The young musicians are dressed in oversized suits finished with the house’s signature white “Bianchetto” treatment. Together, music and fashion merge into a quiet, powerful reflection on creativity and collaboration.
Joy launches on March 11 alongside the arrival of the collection in stores and online.


THE PLURALITY OF PRADA

Prada continues its investigation into the meaning of fashion with the Spring/Summer 2026 campaign, where the very structure of advertising is reimagined. A second act unfolds, revisiting the collection by Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons through a renewed lens, maintaining the same cast while shifting perception.
This reinterpretation reflects Prada’s inherent plurality, embracing multiplicity and transformation.
American artist Jordan Wolfson reframes the campaign, introducing immersive, thought-provoking visuals rooted in contemporary image culture. His practice—spanning robotics, animation, and virtual realities—constructs dreamlike, otherworldly narratives.
In collaboration with Prada, he creates unnamed creatures that interact with the cast, merging imagination with tangible form. These hybrid figures inhabit both still imagery and film, blurring boundaries between reality and fiction. The campaign culminates in a short film where voices repeat the mantra: “I, I, I, I am…”, a declaration left deliberately unresolved. This open-ended statement invites reflection on identity, perception, and self-definition. Wolfson’s intervention ultimately expands Prada into a space of endless reinterpretation, where meaning remains fluid and continuously questioned.


MIU MIU DISCIPLINE AND THE ART OF BECOMING

Discipline is the 31st installment of Miu Miu Women’s Tales, directed by Norwegian filmmaker Mona Fastvold. Set in a mysterious boarding school in Northern Italy, the film explores girlhood as a ritual of performance, where clothing becomes both armor and control. Through masked puppeteers and life-sized dolls, Fastvold examines femininity as something learned, inherited, and rehearsed before identity fully forms. Featuring pieces from the Miu Miu Spring/Summer 2026 collection, the short reflects on the codes and discipline embedded in fabric, gesture, and social expectation. With choreography by Celia Rowlson-Hall and an abstract score by Daniel Blumberg, Discipline captures a moment of rupture and transformation — a girl stepping forward into visibility, unfinished but free.


GIVENCHY PORTRAITS OF CREATIVITY

Givenchy unveils its Summer 2026 Campaign under the creative direction of Sarah Burton, continuing her Portrait Series III. Shot by Collier Schorr, the campaign captures intimate on-set moments filled with wit, spontaneity, and the shared energy of women. Blurring the lines between subject, model, and image-maker, Burton’s vision celebrates collaboration and the diverse personalities that inspire her daily design process. Featuring iconic photographer Annie Leibovitz alongside Kaia Gerber, Isabelle Albuquerque, Liu Wen, and Selena Forest, the campaign reflects the wide-open world of Givenchy women. It is a tribute to creative exchange, individuality, and the collective spirit at the heart of the House. More than a fashion campaign, it becomes a portrait of artistic community and modern femininity. Each image reveals the joy of creation and the strength found in togetherness.


GIVENCHY'S ODE TO FEMINITY

The Snatch Bag by Givenchy, designed by Sarah Burton, is an exploration of intimacy and sensuality through form and material. Sculptural and feminine, its silhouette echoes the curves of the body, drawing inspiration from tailoring and lingerie. Crafted in supple calf-grain leather with a naturally tumbled texture, the bag balances softness and structure. An inside-out construction reveals a contrasting nappa lining and a colour-pop lunetta detail. Finished with organic metal hardware in gold or silver, the Snatch is available in three sizes and multiple carry options. The campaign is photographed by David Sims under the creative direction of Sarah Burton.


BTB CINEMA CLUB 2025

IF YOU’RE A FELLOW CINEPHILE, YOU WILL AGREE THAT THE PERIOD BETWEEN CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR’S EVE IS THE BEST TIME TO WATCH THREE FILMS A DAY, PREFERABLY IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR SOFA (OR BED). HERE ARE THE ONES WE COULDN’T STOP THINKING ABOUT THIS YEAR, IN CASE YOU NEED SOME VIEWING INSPIRATION. WHAT ARE YOURS?

Roofman

An insane real-life story anchored by superb acting from both Channing Tatum and Kirsten Dunst. Bonus points for the interrupted sink shower scene.

Weapons

In a stand-out year for the horror genre, Weapons definitely took the prime spot, largely thanks to the spellbinding Amy Madigan. A villain performance for the books and an instant-classic Halloween costume.

Julie Keeps Quiet

A forceful examination of the shame surrounding abuse, set in the world of tennis.  It’s chilly and controlled, full of whispered dread that tells you exactly how the system operates and survives.

Babygirl

We still get giddy at the thought of the rave scene. Horny and dazzled Nicole Kidman taking off her sensible pussy-bow blouse? That’s exactly the magic we come to cinema for.

Sentimental Value

Director Joachim Trier and his muse Renate Reinsve know how to break our hearts and put them back together like nobody else. A house renovation never made us so emotional.

Pillion

Alexander Skarsgård decked out in a biker suit as a gay dom, telling us what to do? No notes.

Urchin

In his empathetic directorial debut, Harris Dickinson asks painfully honest questions about addiction and homelessness crisis, while Frank Dillane delivers a star-making performance.

Lurker

BTB cover boys Théodore Pellerin and Archie Madekwe in a film about a toxic relationship between a star and an obsessive fan? This is what our dreams are made of. Also, a genius use of paintball as revenge.

Bugonia

Yorgos Lanthimos and Emma Stone reunite once again for a truly unhinged tale with a gag-worthy ending. Unsung heroes of the film? The So Kate Louboutins that have been dragged through the mud.

Sebastian

In this uneasy, thought-provoking film, Ruaridh Mollica plays a writer whose research for a sex work-centred novel enters a problematic realm of exploitation. A study on self-invention gone feral, where ambition masquerades as intimacy, and every connection feels transactional.

Misericordia

It’s always the small villages that are the messiest. In Misericordia, Catholic mercy, moral cowardice and unspoken desire conspire to protect the worst impulses of human nature. You never quite expect what happens next.

Marty Supreme

This film made Gwyneth Paltrow come back from her all-too-long acting hiatus. And if it’s good enough for Miss Goop to leave her empire temporarily unsupervised, it goes on the list!

POV: LUDOVIC DE SAINT SERNIN X ZARA

Black leather skin-tight sets. Glimmering slinky dresses. A rain of studs. The new Ludovic de Saint Sernin x Zara drop arrives like a fever dream of desire and irreverent decadence. In our new series, we slip you into five intimate POVs where reality blurs with fantasy – and the clothes do most of the talking. Consider them invitations to misbehave beautifully.

POV: You’re staying the night at the Chateau Marmont.

We miss the days of Paz de la Huerta stumbling out of the LA’s hotspot (after being denied entry, no less) or Lindsay Lohan’s enormous 46K unpaid bill that got her banned from Chateau. The knitted shirt-dress and black leather boots are a guarantee that you will be welcomed with open arms. Plus, a maxi sheepskin bag will fill all your essentials for the (probably sleepless) night.

POV: You’re going to see Pillion.

We come to this place… for magic, and as far as we’re concerned, Pillion is THE movie of the year. While watching the love story set in the world of BDSM, it might be fun to take things to the 5D level and channel Alexander Skarsgård's dom character in this black leather jacket and biker trousers. An immersive cinema experience indeed.

POV: You’re going on a threesome date.

Let’s face it: once in a while, it’s exciting to switch up the plot and become a guest star to a couple you might be fancying. And while you’re at it, gag them with a look they will be discussing for a long time to come. This silk polo shirt and trousers set looks like it will be easy to take off, too.

POV: You’re in The Devil Wears Prada fashion montage.

If you’re like me, you often go back to the look Andy Sachs wore post-hook-up with the blonde-curled gentleman in Paris. The cinched blazer, the tight pencil skirt, the dangling pom-pom scarf – all very LdSS. As we’re girding our loins for the movie’s sequel coming out next year, having some fashion montages of us strutting around town (even if it’s just in our heads) might be a good way to pass the time and ease the anticipation, and this reversible sheepskin-effect jacket is at the top of our list for this very scenario. C’mon, Vogue!

POV: You’re going all out.

Last time I went out in London at the Club Are party, everyone and their mother was wearing a thong peeking out of their skimpy outfits. This studded leather bra is very much in the same vein – perfected for dancing all night long and making out with a hottie (or three).

VALERIE BY JACQUEMUS

Unveiled within Le Paysan, Le Valérie is more than a handbag — it is a heartfelt homage. Named after Simon Porte Jacquemus’s mother, it captures the tender spirit of a collection rooted in memory, rural heritage, and the sunlit poetry of the South of France. Borrowing the sculptural ring of the Bambola bag yet softening it with a feminine grace, Le Valérie stands as both timeless and intimate. Its structured silhouette recalls the classic city bag while preserving the naïve charm of a hand-folded pouch. Mature yet playful, it bridges nostalgia and modernity with quiet confidence. Alongside it, a series of leather charms pay tribute to Simon’s paysan roots — an ode to markets, fruit stalls, and the simple beauty of craftsmanship. Together, they weave a narrative of warmth and authenticity, echoing the collection’s celebration of family, memory, and love.


PRADA MODE LONDON 2025

During this year’s Frieze week in London, Prada Mode transformed King’s Cross’s newly restored Town Hall into something between a film set, an artwork, and a social experiment. For its thirteenth edition, the cultural club invited artists Elmgreen & Dragset to reimagine the act of watching itself. The result, The Audience, was less an installation than an immersive study in attention — a cinema sculpted from observation, repetition, and the subtle drama of spectatorship.

Inside, a looped, intentionally hazy film flickered across the screen. The room pulsed with presence: five hyper-realistic figures sat among the audience, locked in perpetual observation, their stillness uncanny against the living crowd. Nearby, The Conversation, a solitary woman Face Timing a film character, extended this interplay between the seen and the unseen, collapsing the divide between screen and reality.

Over its first two days, Prada Mode London staged talks and performances that echoed its central theme: how we look, how we gather, and how meaning emerges in the act of witnessing. Highlights included Kirsty Sedgman’s playful “Sit Down and Be Quiet” lecture on audience behaviour, Shona Heath and James Price’s deep-dive into cinematic set design, and a dialogue between Elizabeth Diller and Elmgreen & Dragset on architecture, institutions, and the public gaze.

Open to the public this weekend (October 17—19), The Audience proves that spectatorship can be as performative as art itself — a mirror in which we find not just what we see, but how we choose to see it.

A STUDY IN STILLNESS

In LOEWE’s FW25 precollection, character takes centre stage once again.

Captured by Gray Sorrenti, the campaign blurs lines between reality and roleplay — a cinematic ensemble featuring Yang Mi, Greta Lee, Josh O’Connor and Stéphane Bak inhabits modernist interiors where reflection, light and form distort expectation.

There’s a quiet tension: bodies lounge, observe, withdraw. Are they rehearsing, dreaming, remembering? Draped in twisted tailoring, fluid leathers and florals, each silhouette plays with scale and proportion — the kind of visual play that defines LOEWE.

Bags become totems in the scene: the Puzzle, the Madrid, the Roll-top. Softness meets structure. Mystery lingers. The wardrobe thinks before it speaks.


MODERN FREEDOM

For the CHANEL Cruise 2024/25 collection campaign, photographer Jamie Hawkesworth captured a series of portraits of model Loli-Bahia in and around Marseille, embodying the independence, ease, and modernity of the House and the collection. Loli-Bahia embodies the feeling of wind, sun, sea and sky as she surveys the coastline in classic black and white CHANEL lines, here reimagined into a scuba diving suit. Across the images, we see the codes of the House, reconfigured for the Mediterranean.

The sporty attitude is reflected in the season’s iconic tweed jackets, which appear throughout the campaign. The silhouette is reinterpreted with athletic details: with hoods made in sweatshirt, press studs and shell embroideries, their modernity mirrored by the angular geometries of the urban environment. An active feel runs through the rest of the collection, from cycling shorts rendered in fine leather to denim bermudas embellished with braid like a tracksuit. Flat shoes in black patent leather nod to both tuxedo shoes and scuba-wear.

There is a feeling, too, of escape: in the iconic 11.12 bag, which is rendered in luminous pastel tones, in a cotton poplin and lace top and skirt, and in the straw boater hats - a style favoured by Gabrielle Chanel - worn by Loli-Bahia with an insouciance and youthful allure.

These images capture a sense of spontaneity and effervescence. This is the spirit and attitude of the CHANEL woman today: active, energetic, and free.

The Cruise 2024/25 collection will be available in CHANEL boutiques in November.


ON BELONGING

In his first solo show Vandals, Winter Vandenbrink explores the idea of belonging, examining the relationship between the youth and their daily environments. Titled after a 1945 text by German philosopher Theodor W. Adorno, a work which has a leading influence on the Dutch photographer’s artistic practice, the exhibition delves into the impact that rising consumerism and mass culture have on individuality.

 Showcased at the Von Der Hoeden Contemporary gallery in Hamburg, the 13 unique works display a candid look into the youth subcultures of the modern European metropolises. The subjects, mostly unaware of being photographed, are captured during their daily hangouts in the urban landscape – linking up in the public spaces of their cities to chat, skate and perhaps cause a little bit of trouble.

 The raw photographs bring the role of fashion in shaping these communities to the forefront. Through wearing instantly recognisable garments from mega sports corporations like Adidas and Nike or brands like Calvin Klein, adolescents are able to effectively express their desire to belong to a specific group. Vandenbrink’s evocative images act as a vocabulary, introducing the viewers to the visual language that connects his subjects and inviting them to question the concept of authenticity in the contemporary world.


Vandals by Winter Vandenbrink is on view at Von Der Hoeden Contemporary in Hamburg from April 19 to May 23.
