 Ralph Lauren Fall Winter 2026-2027 Menswear collection fashion show at Milano Men Fashion Week FW26 (January 16, 2026).
Ralph Lauren marked his return to the Milan runway with a show that felt both ceremonial and resolutely familiar, staged within the courtyard of the brand’s Milan headquarters. Set to a big band soundtrack and framed by an audience of well-known leading men seated on leather divans, the presentation leaned unapologetically into the codes that have defined the designer’s universe for decades. Rather than signaling reinvention, the collection asserted continuity, positioning Ralph Lauren’s vision of American menswear within a Milanese context without diluting its identity. The opening sequence was dominated by Polo Ralph Lauren, delivered in deliberately saturated layers and assertive styling. Camel coats were cut with authority but softened by generous proportions, while tartan trousers were slim and precise, reinforcing a dialogue between heritage patterning and contemporary tailoring. Bright orange puffer jackets punctured the otherwise earth-toned palette, functioning as visual anchors amid weathered denim, military references and Western-inflected details. The silhouettes moved confidently between utility and polish, with hiking boots grounding looks that paired cashmere sweatpants with more formal outerwear, suggesting an ease that felt intentional rather than casual. Throughout the show, Lauren’s well-established vocabulary of preppy, military, vintage and establishment codes was reassembled with enough tension to remain engaging. Chairman-of-the-board pinstripes appeared alongside distressed jeans, while rugged textures were offset by refined cuts and disciplined layering. The garments invited closer inspection through fabric choice and finish rather than overt branding, relying on familiarity and craftsmanship to communicate their place within the Ralph Lauren canon. Narrative played a visible role in the collection. Characters emerged through styling rather than costume, from bohemian figures in paint-splattered jeans and embellished leather jackets to mountain-oriented looks suggesting snowboarders and ranchers, and Ivy League archetypes rendered through knitwear and tailoring. Accessories such as oversized cotton totes filled with sweaters and metallic flasks reinforced the idea of men defined by how they live rather than how they dress for display. This emphasis echoed Lauren’s own written statement, in which he described the collection as an exploration of individuality and personal style. Midway through the presentation, the atmosphere shifted sharply as the Purple Label segment began. The transition was marked by a caped figure in a tartan blazer paired with tuxedo trousers, signaling a move toward the brand’s most exclusive register. Here, tailoring took precedence, but it was not without interruption. Traditional evening codes were subtly disrupted by sporty references and performance-minded elements, lending the luxury offering a contemporary edge. The influence of alpine and après-ski dressing surfaced through technical fabrics and relaxed silhouettes, tempering the formality without undermining it. Despite Ralph Lauren’s absence from the runway, the show concluded with a sense of theatrical closure that felt entirely consistent with the brand’s ethos. The sustained applause was met not by designers taking a bow, but by uniformed waiters offering Champagne, reinforcing the notion that the experience itself was the message. From a critical standpoint, the collection’s strength lay in its confidence. At times, the reliance on established tropes limited the element of surprise, particularly in the Polo segment, where familiarity occasionally bordered on predictability. However, the clarity of vision, the assured handling of fabric and silhouette, and the effective dialogue between Polo Ralph Lauren and Purple Label justified the approach. With a moderate critical edge and an overall positive sentiment, the show reaffirmed Ralph Lauren’s position as a master of narrative menswear, capable of sustaining relevance through refinement rather than reinvention.

O’Connor, internationally known for his Golden Globe–winning portrayal of Prince Charles in The Crown, has previously appeared in Anderson-linked contexts and worn Dior on red carpets, including during promotional appearances for Challengers where he featured in the designer’s creations, (copyrights Dior).   The Maison’s first meteorite timepiece to feature a small-seconds indicator “Honouring Mr. Genta also means honouring his pioneering use of steel and the creative spirit it unleashed. At Gerald Charles, reshaping history is part of our philosophy of uniqueness - and the Maestro 2.0 Meteorite embodies this vision. These watches are not simply made with meteorite; they tell the story of its journey. By sculpting a billion-year-old meteorite into the iconic Maestro form, we bring cosmic history into the present, turning a fragment of the universe into wearable art.” - Federico Ziviani, CEO, Gerald Charles. This moment finds its artistic expression in two models: the Black model embodies the instant of impact, with dark meteorite revealing flashes of red from the anodized baseplate and a running small-seconds indicator at 6 o’clock featuring a fiery gradient, all enclosed in a Darkblast steel case. The Silver model represents stillness after the explosion, where matter cools and crystallizes, pairing a silver meteorite dial with gold accents and a polished steel case. A material that reshapes millennia of history The meteorite used for the Maestro 2.0 originates from the Muonionalusta meteorite, estimated to be over 4.5 billion years old, making it one of the oldest materials available on Earth. Having fallen in northern Sweden, the quantity of meteorite on Earth is extraordinarily rare - far more limited than gold or diamonds. Its scarcity enhances the significance of every piece produced. Working with meteorite, however, is a delicate challenge. The material is highly ferrous, extremely hard, and cannot be cut like stone. Only electro-erosion can shape it into the Maestro form, slicing it into ultra-fine layers. Throughout the process, each fragment must remain fully submerged in a protective liquid to prevent immediate oxidation. Executing this savoir-faire - shaping meteorite to match the Maestro’s complex geometry and engraving the explosion rays at 6 o’clock with near-surgical precision - represents one of the most advanced expressions of Gerald Charles expertise. A dial that captures a moment in time The project began with a simple brief - a meteorite dial‑ Maestro - but quickly evolved into a far more ambitious vision. CEO Federico Ziviani challenged the design team to push the limits, expressing a moment, not merely a motif. Designer Octavio Garcia - long-time friend of the Ziviani family and head of GC’s creative team - worked with Mr. Genta. Having served as Creative Director of Audemars Piguet for many years, he met Mr. Genta during the Royal Oak 40th anniversary and knows the Maestro’s design language intimately. Mr. Garcia devised a striking dual-layer construction: a thin slab of meteorite above an aluminum baseplate - red for black, silver for white. Radial apertures pierce the dial to expose the charged baseplate beneath, evoking the shockwaves of impact. At 6 o’clock, a sculptural small-seconds display animates the blast, while the Maestro’s signature geometry directs the energy upward in a dynamic, rising flow.

Los Angeles, CA – Global Ambassador Lisa Manobal (@lalalalisa_m, 106 M, LISA at GOLDEN GLOBE AWARDS ©️Bulgari.) was the focus of the Golden Globes' Red Carpet tonight, and had a fascinating worldwide premiere of the new collection Bvlgari Eternal – a visionary initiative that enlivens Maison's iconic archival designs with new creativity and contemporary spirit. Vimini the first chapter of Bvlgari Eternal is inspired by a 1942 bracelet that has been rediscovered in the archives as one of the cornerstones of the brand's DNA and whose evolution over the years is predestined. The name Vimini (willow braid) comes about organically, as does the braided structure of the design itself, referring to an ancient technique already masterfully mastered by Greeks and Romans to make baskets and everyday objects from straw and willow branches. This craftsmanship skill, passed down through centuries, is reinterpreted by the creativity and innovative gold processing skills of Bvlgari designers and artisans, transforming a simple everyday inspiration into expressive, contemporary jewelry creations. The Bvlgari Eternal Vimini High Jewelry Necklace worn by Global Ambassador Lisa Manobal, reveals a visionary game of light and shadow. Following the two-tone harmony of the original Heritage design, innovation becomes seduction and contrast to confident charisma. The warm nuances of yellow gold meet the bold intensity of black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) – an avant-garde coating that opens up a seminal new dimension in jewelry design. The look was rounded off by the Vimini five-band ring made of pure yellow gold. With its distinctive character, the ring reinterprets the characteristic modules of the original and translates them into a soft, five-volume, moving design. A contemporary classic on the threshold of the avant-garde. High Jewelry Vimini Choker made of 18 kt yellow gold and DLC-coated steel with pave-framed diamonds (8.91 ct).

READY-TO-WEAR PRE-FALL 2026 COLLECTION INDOMPTÉE, INDOMPTABLE In a dreamed-up Paris, between winter gardens and grand hôtels particuliers, a free-spirited and glamorous Pre-Fall 2026 collection is born. It celebrates audacity and the untamed personalities of the mythical courtesans who shaped the Golden Age as much as they defied it—bold, independent women who turned image into power, mystery into legend, and presence into a weapon. Resolutely modern and daring, the collection reinvents the refinement of the Belle Époque while reinterpreting its opulence to tell a story of femininity in all its complexity. Silhouettes revisit the allure of the Countess de Castiglione and the Marchesa Casati. The corset asserts itself, sculpting the waist and defining the figure, appearing over trousers, sketched onto tailoring, or reimagined as a second skin top. Menswear tailoring becomes the collection’s feminine emblem: precise shoulders, elongated trousers, clean lines ignited by subtle details—mother-of-pearl buttons, meticulously designed brooches. Long gowns set the tone with airy volumes, velvet shimmers, and slits. Fabrics glide, drape, and glow like glass panels beneath the skylights of Parisian greenhouses. Graphic lace, ethereal transparencies, embroidered tulles, and liquid satins shape a contemporary wardrobe—bold and incandescent. Opalescent chiffons brush the skin like a breath of light. The color palette draws from hushed salons and opulent bouquets, blending luminous and blazing hues: powdered ivory, velvet black, kiss-red, absinthe green, patinated gold, and faded rose. Each piece becomes a fragment of history—an echo of those powerful, defiant women who once inspired painters, poets, and photographers, and who continue to inspire today...

AISH, AMALA, AMY, TILDA SWINTON AND MORE BEST RED CARPET LOOKS OF 2005, FROM CANNES TO THE MET GALA 2025  Cannes Film Festival 78th, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan wearing Manish Malhotra She’s Back in a Saree! Aishwarya Rai Bachchan Brings the Saree Back to Cannes After Years At the 78th Cannes Film Festival, the undisputed icon of the Cannes red carpet, the beautiful Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, makes a striking return in a visual statement that honours Indian handloom- a meditation in ivory, rose gold, and silver: a handwoven Kadwa ivory Banarasi handloom saree from Manish Malhotra. The Kadwa brocade technique stands as a true testament to the unmatched skill of Indian weavers. Originating from the famed looms of Varanasi, this intricate method involves crafting each motif separately, often using multiple shuttles and supplementary threads. The saree features handwoven brocade motifs and hand-embroidered zari detailing in real chandi (silver), further extending the sanctity of the fabric. Draped alongside is a sheer white tissue handwoven dupatta, edged with real gold and silver zardozi embroidery. The ensemble marks a deliberate departure from conventional red-carpet codes, reintroducing the saree not as nostalgia, but as contemporary couture. A bold assertion from the brand, rewriting what Indian ceremonial dress can signify on the global stage. Paired with heirloom Manish Malhotra high jewellery featuring, over 500 carats of Mozambique rubies and uncut diamonds in 18k gold and the rennaissance of ruby statement rings this look foregrounds textile as language, and craftsmanship as power.  On the storied steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, under the gaze of the global fashion world, Manish Malhotra couture looks testify why he is widely regarded as the torchbearer of Indian couture (and the man himself also made a quiet yet resonant debut at the 2025 Met Gala). This year’s theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” paid tribute to the cultural evolution of Black Dandyism- a narrative shaped by defiance, dignity, and aesthetic power. In response, Malhotra offered a creations that adorned several best dresses red carpet icons like the Empress of Indian Fashion herself, stunning Natasha Poonawalla. Her persona reigns supreme at The Met Gala 2025 in a custom Manish Malhotra Ensemble, draped in an exquisite fusion of armor, artistry, and ancestry. A vision of dandyism woven with the heritage and legacy of Indian Gara embroidery.  Her interpretation of the 2005 year theme, reframed through the language of Indian couture, honors her Parsi ancestry while affirming her place as a modern-day cultural force. At the core: a sculpted fishtail skirt reengineered from two vintage Gara saris, one a century-old relic from Manish Malhotra’s archives recreated, its surface an exquisite tapestry of hand-embroidered silken threads echoing generations of craftsmanship. Anchoring the look is a corset-cummerbund paired with a vintage French lace bralette edged in scalloped pearls capturing the essence of dandyism, where restraint meets regality in meticulously tailored form. Draped above it all: a sharply tailored black Gara jacket with bold shoulders, lined in imperial purple, a hue long associated with power, mysticism, and nobility, and embroidered in the sacred ektaar technique, where one continuous thread carries an unbroken narrative. At the collar, a sculptural lace cravat by Atelier Biser delivers the final note of theatricality. Styled by Anaita Shroff Adajania this is couture with conviction. Long regarded as one of India’s most influential designers, Malhotra approached even personal Met Gala debut not as a spectacle, but as a continuation of a deeply rooted creative path- one shaped by instinct, memory, and an enduring reverence for textile traditions. His ensemble, a sculptural sherwani layered with a sharply tailored blazer and a floor-sweeping cape, drew inspiration from the 19th-century Inverness Dandy- a figure emblematic of both refinement and rebellion, manishmalhotra.in.  Tilda SWINTON, CHANEL Ambassador, wore a salmon cotton shirt with a burdungy light shantung skirt, look 17, from the CHANEL Spring-Summer 2026 collection on December 4th for the closing ceremony of the film festival. These sophisticated bicolour looks mark a departure from her classical CHANEL black and white outfits that she wore for the red carpet to Venice Film Festival and Berlinale 2025, and the British Vogue describes her new Chanel styling so, Tilda Is Once Again The Best-Dressed Person At A Film Festival. Earlier this year at the 75th Berlin International Film Festival the Scottish actress Tilda Swinton received the Honorary Golden Bear for her lifetime achievements, during the Opening Ceremony at the Berlinale Palast on February 13, 2025, where she also striking haute couture by Chanel.

Tennis legend Venus Williams and actor, producer, and model Andrea Preti first met in 2024 during Milan Fashion Week—at the Gucci show, Venus remembers tells Vogue, “I was in Lake Como on a sisters’ trip when I got an invite at the last minute and decided to go on a whim, ...‘
It was an intense period, just 10 days later, she was diagnosed with adenomyoma. Six months after that, they got engaged on January 31, 2025, in Tuscany, after Andrea proposed. Their first wedding was on September 18 in Ischia, Italy. She told Vogue, “We had this dream to do our wedding in Italy,” Venus explains. “But we didn’t have enough time to do the paperwork—because I’m a foreigner, it can take about eight months. So we decided to have a second wedding.” This second wedding, held in Palm Beach this weekend before Christmas, was planned by Jennifer Zabinski of JZ Events, who also organized her sister Serena’s 2017 wedding, the week of events started a full six days before the ceremony and featured a jam-packed itinerary—along with lots of windy weather. “They always say weddings go so fast, and they do,” Venus says. “We started on Monday. Serena gave us this gift of a beautiful yacht, and she arranged all the food, everything. We had 10 to 12 of our closest family and friends who were in town on the boat, and we were singing, dancing, gossiping, and just enjoying each other.” |
