Tanya Farah presents its “VOTE FOR WOMEN” collection, marking the struggle for the female vote in Britain and the United States a little over a century ago. With the 18 karat gold coin, the jeweler directly references the coins that circulated among twentieth-century suffragettes as a silent but fortified message in their efforts for equality. The collection is an homage to the continuous struggle for human rights, and Tanya Farah donates 25% of proceeds for each charm sold to the New York Women’s Foundation.

Cotton Terry Beach Towel

Luxury textile company ZigZagZurich and international architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron (H&dM) joined forces to release a cotton terry beach towel, “377 KIPSI.” Designed by H&dM and created with ZigZagZurich’s fine cotton terry materials, the towel is an homage to the fall 2024 opening of the University Children’s Hospital in Zürich, also designed by H&dM. The towel’s pink tones and geometric shapes echo the building’s interior palette and floor plan of the hospital.
Gucci
Gucci Prospective 2: Ancora Milano

Italian fashion house Gucci’s second edition of its “Prospective” series, entitled Ancora Milano, is Creative Director Sabato De Sarno’s love letter to Milan. The book merges the line between art and fashion, as de Sarno worked in collaboration with the Museum of Modern Art senior curator of Architecture and design, Paola Antonelli. “We were inspired by the idea of frictions and attritions, contrasting flashes of brutalism with visions of commercial, entrepreneurial, and industrial refinement, exploring the clichés of bourgeois elegance without discounting the more complex and radical nuances that make it quintessentially Milanese,” explained Antonelli.
LAFCO
Star Jasmine

With its new Star Jasmine scent, home fragrance company LAFCO New York preserves its complex notes in both a reed diffuser and candle form. A combination of bergamot, jasmine, and rhubarb, Star Jasmine brings a lush yet refreshing scent to the home. Both products come in unique recyclable glass vessels crafted in the traditional Italian “macchia” layering style. As the candle flickers, its green vessel glows, heralding both a beautiful scent and sight.
LÖF

Dating back to 2021, the Off-White VULCANIZED 779 sneaker is the last shoe designed by the brand’s late founder Virgil Abloh. The sneakers come in four distinct colorways: Black-Black, Army Green-Blue, White-Beige, and Dark Grey-Ice. VULCANIZED 779 encapsulates the ethos of the brand, highlighting Abloh’s persistent dedication to skateboarding and community strength, and with a direct nod to Abloh’s Illinois hometown area code. “It’s a great honor and privilege to be in this position and be able to still celebrate V, and have his vision as part of our daily conversation,” Stated Off-White Artistic Director IB Kamara of Abloh’s VULCANIZED 779 sneaker. “He was always 3 steps ahead, and this project is proof of that.”
