Ref. CF Calibre 1522 While the unique "Chronomètre Furtif Bleu" Only Watch 2024 piece was the first in the world to feature a Tantalum case and bracelet, the small production run of the Chronomètre Furtif - now part of the lineSport collection - has been designed by François-Paul Journe to have a 42 mm case and bracelet made from Tungsten Carbide (interspersed with Tantalum elements). Usually used for highly technical applications, it is the perfect material as, in addition to its biocompatibility and low chemical reactivity, it is highly shock-resistant and practically indestructible. A year and a half of research and testing was needed to perfect the anthracite grey mirror-polished Grand Feu enamel on white Gold dial, with matte-finished numerals and minutes track. These are elements that only the owners of this watch will be able to see by altering the angle of the dial against the light. Housed in a 42 mm diameter case, the 18K rose Gold Calibre 1522 with manual winding displays the hours and minutes, and the centre seconds. The white seconds hand is fitted directly onto the axis of the dedicated wheel, whose nearly linear gear train is a first for F.P.Journe. Symmetrically positioned on the back are the power reserve (56 h) indicator and the moon phases. Reflecting the skill of our watchmakers and the talent of the artisans of Les Boîtiers de Genève and Les Cadraniers de Genève - both owned by F.P.Journe - the Chronomètre Furtif takes you back to the fundamentals: having the time for yourself alone. 20 Years with the Chronomètre Souverain 2005 - 2025 Ref. CS Calibre 1304 After the Tourbillon Souverain, the Chronomètre à Résonance and the Octa, it is now the turn of the Chronomètre Souverain. Introduced in 2005 and now the most sought-after model in our collections, the Chronomètre Souverain is a watch with three hands and a power reserve indicator. Apparently simple in design, but embodying great mechanical know-how, this timepiece draws its inspiration from traditional marine chronometers. In the 18th century, the governments of Great Britain and France sought to dominate the seas. The two nations offered substantial rewards in order to incite the greatest horological minds to invent a method that would allow the determination of longitude at sea. Since the safety of ships and their crews were of the utmost importance, these mechanical instruments had to be extremely precise. The Chronomètre Souverain perpetuates this quest for chronometric excellence. Constructed in the purest horological tradition, it is animated by the 18K rose Gold Calibre 1304, which is extra-flat – only 4 mm thick – and manually wound. The two parallel-mounted barrels deliver a highly linear force to the escapement for over 56 hours. One telling detail reveals that history: the placement of the power reserve hand on the dial at 3 o’clock is a rare occurrence in horology, for that position interferes with the time-setting mechanism operated by the crown. The choice was inspired by marine chronometers, which measured the time elapsed since the last winding. Conventional displays, however, indicate the remaining power reserve. Here that scale is reversed: it stands at “0” when the springs are fully wound and progresses as they unwind. In order to create a slim and elegant watch, François-Paul Journe rethought the power reserve mechanism, reducing its thickness by more than half to achieve a mere 0.5 mm through the use of ceramic ball bearings, a patented innovation. In celebration of this 20th anniversary, F.P.Journe announces the Chronomètre Souverain Collection Boutique, with two blue guilloché Silver dials, exclusively available in F.P.Journe Boutiques and Espaces.

Initially part of the Qatari luxury group Albidaa, the brand gained independence in response to growing demand.
Today, it stands as a fully-fledged watchmaking house with proprietary collections and a fiercely independent creative vision Limited Production, Accessible Excellence The Beda’a Eclipse II is not a limited edition, but production is capped at 100 pieces per year, ensuring exclusivity while keeping pricing fair. Target price: 4,000 CHF. excl. taxes Key Takeaways: · The next chapter for Beda’a marks its ascension as a true independent watchmaking force. · A new addition to the Eclipse collection—following the Eclipse I's spectacular sell-out of 200 pieces in three hours. · A refined design, featuring quality finishing and a custom module by Dubois Dépraz. · Limited to 100 timepieces per year. · Priced fairly, offering collectors quality craftsmanship at exceptional value. Beda'a was born from the vision of Qatari entrepreneur Hader Al Suwaidi, who aimed to create a horological brand that would position the Arab region not just as a market for fine watches, but as a contributor to the global watchmaking industry. Serendipity played a role in making this vision become reality: with the recruitment of engineer-designer Sohaib Maghnam – whose passion defies convention – to shape the brand’s trajectory. Entrepreneurial and cosmopolitan, Sohaib moves seamlessly between the watchmaking capitals of Switzerland, London, Milan, and Doha—yet his journey into horology was anything but ordinary… Fluent in Arabic and English, Sohaib obtained his Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering in the UK. Still in his early 20s, he moved to Milan for a two-year Master’s program. There, immersed in the city’s rich design culture, he had his horological epiphany. “London was where I first became acquainted with the big names in watchmaking and where my passion began to take shape. A few years later, I left for Milan, where I discovered a thriving watch community. All my connections in horology trace back to there, thanks in no small part to Jacopo Corvo of a renowned retailer there called GMT. He sent my first sketches to key figures in the industry and introduced me to a lot of the right people. London introduced me to watchmaking, but Milan truly shaped my career.” Sohaib began developing, making and selling his first models under his own name, Maghnam Watches – a growing brand that still exists today as his personal creative sandbox, unbound by conventional watchmaking norms. Not one fortuitous call, but two Just weeks before leaving Milan, his Master’s degree in his pocket, Sohaib received a call from Qatar. It was Hader Al Suwaidi, the president of luxury group Albidaa, who wanted to purchase one of his Maghnam watches. A few days later, he called again – this time, with an offer to head the group’s watch division. Albidaa was in the early stages of establishing a fully independent watch brand as part of its portfolio of luxury companies. It was the beginning of Beda’a –and Sohaib had the perfect profile. “It was a complete surprise—yet also an incredible opportunity. I would be designing, building a team, managing suppliers, sales, and marketing, while building a team and a brand. It was a chance I couldn’t pass up. A few months later, I left for Doha to begin the Beda’a adventure—and never looked back,” Sohaib recalls. Once in Doha as CEO of Beda’a, Sohaib’s unique skill set quickly proved invaluable. While he had spent nearly seven years in Europe, he remained deeply rooted in Arab culture and language. An engineer by training, he had already honed his expertise in watch design and construction while steadily building a network of clients, partners, and suppliers—all driven by a crystal-clear vision for contemporary watchmaking. At just 27, he was a rare figure in the watch industry, and under his leadership, Beda’a came into its own. Today, two years later, he is the company’s CEO and Chief Designer. A Brand on the Rise Maintaining the momentum, Beda’a quickly established itself, winning over new clients and taking part in major exhibitions: Watches and Wonders, Geneva Watch Days, Wind Up Watch Fair (NYC), and The Horology Club anniversary (HK). The watch collections take shape, forming the brand’s four foundational pillars: Attrayant, assertive and elegant; Fortress, with its Art Deco accents; Angles, the unclassifiable best-seller whose limited New York series sold out in hours; and, finally, as the ultimate statement – Eclipse. Eclipse is the most elemental of Beda’a creations, as it is the only round watch in Sohaib Maghnam’s prolific portfolio at Beda’a. It is also the most ambitious, as it enters the fiercely competitive realm of fine Swiss Made watchmaking. Yet, he succeeds in capturing the two key elements that are of compelling appeal to true collectors: an unconventional hours-and-minutes display and a price that is uncompromisingly fair. Eclipse II : An Astral Revelation When the first Eclipse debuted, all 200 pieces vanished in a mere three hours – with thousands still on the waiting list. Their patience is now rewarded with an unprecedented creation, an evolution tellingly named Eclipse II. At its heart beats a movement with a specifically designed module that uniquely embodies the spirit of Beda’a, marking a watershed moment for the fledgling Maison. Eclipse II opens the second chapter, deepening the celestial narrative: a horological tribute to the cosmos that reminds us that timekeeping was born from humanity’s fascination with the stars. Design remains paramount. The timepiece orchestrates a perfect dialogue between linear precision and orbital grace. A singular vertical axis connects three elements: the off-center hours and minutes at twelve, an independent small seconds display, and a crown positioned at six o’clock – a bold departure from convention in Haute Horlogerie, yet intrinsic to the commitment of Beda’a to pure alignment. Within the round case – itself a departure for a house known for its shaped collections – two seamlessly integrated dials form a majestic figure-eight. Symmetrical crescents, finished with a distinctive linear motif, challenge Swiss tradition. The dial itself becomes a celestial canvas:
More than a timepiece, Eclipse II is Beda’a’s vision of time itself: precise yet poetic, technical yet transcendent. It doesn’t just tell time; it tells a story... Beda’a – The First Complication Heeding collectors’ voices, Beda’a has enhanced the technical value of Eclipse II, while carefully avoiding the price inflation often seen in haute horlogerie. As Sohaib Maghnam emphasizes, “The price is exactly where it should be. No less, but certainly no more.” The Eclipse II movement combines two variables to find the perfect balance between tradition and innovation, between accessibility and exclusivity. First, there’s a Sellita SW300 foundation. It is a proven caliber that Beda’a knows well – it was already present in Eclipse I. For this second chapter, Beda’a adds a module developed with specialist workshop Dubois Depraz. The family business, famed for its complications, was born in 1901 in the Vallée de Joux. It possesses an undeniable historical legitimacy, coupled with unparalleled technical expertise. It is they who enabled Beda’a to design an Eclipse II of only 37 mm in diameter, perfectly balanced by a thickness under 10 mm (9.5 mm precisely). A Celestial Rotor The celestial theme extends to the openworked rotor, a rarity in itself. · Eight three-dimensional blades, satin-finished in a radiant motif; · Each engraved at its center with Beda’a’s stylized “B”; with · Each polished emblem set against a laser-sandblasted background, echoing the refined alternations seen on the steel case. Here, Beda’a has designed an openworked rotor of rare sophistication.

After three decades devoted to elevating brides’ wedding dresses around the world, Célestina Agostino is turning a page to write a new one—just as bold as it is visionary.
Approaching her 30th anniversary, she chose to celebrate this milestone not with a party, but with the opening a new chapter for her fashion house: a ready-to-wear collection that embodies both her heritage and her resolutely contemporary spirit. “I didn’t just want to mark time. I wanted real change—for this thirtieth anniversary to become the starting point of a new adventure,” she confides. Her motivation? A desire to evolve and to merge luxury craftsmanship with more accessible fashion, without compromising on excellence or refinement. Furthermore, she had a wish to answer the persistent requests of her loyal clientele: “For years, mothers and brides have been asking me for outfits for other milestones in their lives.” It’s a request that became an inspiration and a desire that turned into ambition. Creating for women, with women. Célestina Agostino is reinventing her creative process while staying true to her DNA. In the world of bridal couture, each creation is an intimate conversation and a journey into the bride’s personality. “There’s an almost psychological dimension. I start with the woman’s story, her dreams.” With ready-to-wear, the process is reversed. It is her style, her world and her audacity that draw the lines. The women who wear her creations will make this DNA their own, reinterpreting Agostino’s signature elegance in their own way. Behind this transformation lies a unique savoir-faire. Thirty years of haute couture have taught her to read bodies and to understand their curves and subtleties. “I know bodies by heart. I know exactly how a dress should be cut to enhance the silhouette.” This treasure trove of experience now serves as the foundation of her new line, ensuring that each piece fits like a second skin. Her first ready-to-wear collection bears her unmistakable signature: elegant, modern femininity and punctuated by a touch of vintage. “That’s what I heard at Fashion Week: feminine, elegant, with that hint of reinvented nostalgia.” She breathes new life into timeless classics, infusing them with a bold modernity. Perfect proportions, exceptional fabrics, meticulous refinement—her couture expertise resonates in every piece of this collection, conceived as an ode to elegance. This elegance is for all the women, no specific age, or restrictions. “I want to dress women who love fashion—women who are sharp, modern, and elegant. A wardrobe for those who dare, for those who create their own occasions. I want us to dare once again to wear beautiful pieces—to go to the theater, to have a drink with friends, to create special moments for ourselves.” True to her commitment to quality, Célestina Agostino chose Italy for the manufacturing of this collection. There, she found artisans who share her passion for excellence and partners who help her infuse each creation with the exclusivity that sets her house apart. “Some fabrics and embroideries have been designed exclusively for us.” However this is just the beginning. Célestina Agostino is already envisioning of expanding her horizons, by delving into menswear with the same passion. “I’d love to venture into men’s fashion while remaining true to the soul of the house.” An ambition fueled by a clear vision of today’s fashion—one that moves away from overpricing and standardization in favor of tailored cuts and pieces that celebrate elegance and femininity. This is not just a collection, it’s a promise. A promise to continue telling a story, to keep craftsmanship alive and to celebrate femininity with audacity and refinement. For Célestina Agostino, this adventure is far more than a turning point in her career. It is a commitment to her customers, a love letter to fashion and an invitation to discover her world in a new light. She embraces this bold challenge with elegance and determination, staying true to her image as a daring, refined designer firmly rooted in her time.  Julien Fournié was inspired by the classic rectangular baguette of the 1940s to create the Big Bang Go. As its name suggests, the Big Bang Go is a creative explosion of square volume, controlled asymmetry and contemporary ergonomics. The Big Bang Go combines 4 different ways of carrying: a 90s style satchel, short for evenings out; a city bag that takes on a contemporary look for everyday use when the shoulder strap is extended; thirdly, for a weekend in the country for example, the shoulder strap can be transformed into a cross-body for a more casual look; finally, by removing the shoulder strap, the clutch bag can be carried for evenings out. Tough but not stiff, with refined saddle stitching, the Big Bang Go combines protected leather with mercury-free metalwork in moon gold or gunmetal. The final touch is the closure: a 'tuck', reminiscent of childhood satchels, with the Julien Fournie Haute Couture jewel logo. The case is divided into 3 compartments, including a central zip pocket to keep your most precious secrets safe. The version shown is the Big Bang Go Bloody Mary. The bag is available in four colors.  Autumn-Winter 2025 Collection
Driven by his passion for creating clothes, Charles Sébline’s eponymous collection focuses on a carefully curated range of shirts, designed with pieces he himself wants to wear. These seasonless items are crafted to last, blending tradition with a mix of his distinctly English and distinctly French aesthetics, drawing on his experience—particularly his time working for Yves Saint Laurent—as a source of inspiration.  Hudson modeled an edgy black sequin gown on the red carpet at Thursday night's gig in NYC adorned with
PASQUALE BRUNI jewellery line Giardini Segreti, rings and earrings Giardini Segreti and a bracelet Aleluià, all in rose gold with white and champagne colloured diamonds. The flirty look had a loose-fitting top before transitioning into a long, fitted skirt with fringe detail. She teamed the showy ensemble with a pair of peep-toe platform black heels that flashed her apple-red pedicure, which coordinated with her manicure. Her footwear boasted a round, glinting, silver brooch that elevated her fun look. The mother-of-three pulled her signature long blonde locks into a sleek updo, allowing her to highlight her flawless makeup. Hudson's eyes were heavily lined in black as her makeup artist created a sultry smokey eyeshadow look. Her cheeks were dusted in a mauve-toned blush, and the glowy presentation was completed with a matte lipstick. She added black drop earrings as she walked the red carpet solo, posing for snapshots. Performers who took the stage at the benefit concert included Kate, Alicia Keys, Beck, and Cher, among others. Kate Hudson brought along her mini-me daughter Rani as she attended the 9th annual Love Rocks NYC concert to benefit God's Love We Deliver on Thursday night. Before the big show, the 45-year-old actress — who is the daughter of Goldie Hawn — walked the red carpet without the six-year-old by her side. But the mother-daughter duo reunited backstage as they posed for a photo with comedian Amy Schumer. ore Hudson shares Rani with her musician fiance, Danny Fujikawa, 38, who proposed to her 2021. She is also mom to son Ryder, 21, with ex-husband Chris Robinson, 58, and son Bingham Hawn, 13, with Muse frontman Matt Bellamy, 46.

 Starting this year by celebration three decades in business since opening its atelier in 1995 in Lebanon, the independent House has always been guided by the transmission of exceptional craftsmanship. Today two generations are at the helm of the family-owned brand, under the artistic direction of Georges and Jad Hobeika, father and son.
As always their inspiration is a woman with rich history and bright vision. (Remember the anniversary haute couture show hosted in January in Paris where Mr Hobeika celebrated his mother and grandmother to Jad). Now presenting the ready to wear fall 2025 show, show notes indicate new female character that inspired this collection, — a woman who knows that every moment holds the promise of something extraordinary. With the world at her fingertips, she embraces innovation and audacity, shaping her own frontiers with grace and power. Let us not forget that the Maison also dresses men and has wonderful suits and leather looks for men too. The collection emphasizes also a statement piece: a jacket with a fur back, draped over a dress adorned with intricate embroidery evoking a fierce and timeless panther print. In her hand, she carries a tote bag with a striking bamboo-like metal handle — a perfect companion for her essentials including a pair of heels that will take her seamlessly from day into night. This collection is a celebration of powerful, dignified femininity — a harmonious balance of strength and sophistication, subtly nodding to the iconic spirit of the 2000s. Each piece is crafted with exceptional attention to detail, blending luxurious textures, diverse fabrics, and bold silhouettes to create a wardrobe for the woman who dares to dream and lead. We get to follow the character as the day transitions into evening, she steps into the bathroom of a private club — a space of refined elegance and discretion. There, she pauses for a moment of transformation. Carefully, she layers on signature pieces — pearl necklaces from her bag, clip-like earrings that catch the light.

Establishing her brand, Dr. Maaya Design Labo in 2013, Orii has participated in Vancouver Fashion Week SS24, New York Fashion Week SS23, Paris Fashion Week SS24, as well as Tokyo Fashion Week FW24. Orii’s cutting edge style and designs stems from her studies at Central Saint Martins in London, where she embarked on an intimate journey with art and design. Taking a unique and captivating approach, Orii’s FW25 collection “Dr.MAAYA’s HOUSE ~ Architecture and fashion, research into clothing shapes ~” draws inspiration from her fascination with architecture. With the intersection between shapes and colors that is often explored in architechture, Orii works to reflect this in her collection as well. With her approach to angular design and the incorporation of square shapes in her collection, she challenges the boundaries of clothing, eliminating roundness and conformity. “Dr.MAAYA’s HOUSE ~ Architecture and fashion, research into clothing shapes ~” showcases an emphasis of bright neon colors, complementing the abstract shapes and silhouettes that her clothing sports. Boxes, rectangles and squares in bright contrasting colors create an eye-catching look, drawing attention to the imitation of windows, building structures, roofs and stairs. OFFICIAL WEBSITE YilliaQ: Embracing Imperfection, Healing the Soul Yu Qian, who grew up in Inner Mongolia, has a 5-year clinical pharmacy background, growing to develop deep connections with mental and physical health. Founded in late 2023, YilliaQ is an energetic and dynamic fashion brand committed to revolutionizing the industry through its approach in fashion with psychotherapy. Their FW25 collection, “The Treatment of Soul” delves into the world of scoliosis. Extracting elements from orthopedic braces and surgical sutures, the silhouette was created. The colors red, blue, green and white are also present, representing a pathway to heal people’s spirit in Mongolian culture. The collection endowed people who suffered scoliosis with the courage to step out of the shadows of negativity, and allow them to accept their imperfections and uniqueness. From personal experiences and dysmorphia of having scoliosis since the age of 10, Yu struggled with the process of healing internally and physically. It is this deep sense of appreciation for medical professionals that aided in Yu’s physical and mental recovery that inspired “The Treatment of Soul” to have the means to inspire and encourage others while advocating for greater understanding, diversity and acceptance. “The Treatment of Soul” included a unique monochromatic white set with metal screws in the back of the piece. In Yu’s hometown of Inner Mongolia, white is considered the purest color in nature, representing truth and purity. As one of China's ethnic minorities, Manchu, white represents auspiciousness and good luck in their culture. The metal screws on the back are both decoration and the embodiment of the theme of acceptance and representation of scoliosis; it is a process from external pain to internal self-healing. Other colors heavily used in the collection include bright primary colors. OFFICIAL WEBSITE THETHE: Formless Things – Reimagining Tradition and Breaking Boundaries Not a stranger to the runway, Ruru Tanaka has previously worked on costume production and rental for brands participating in Serbia Fashion Week. As a culmination of her studies from a fashion institute in Japan, she shows her experience with fashion through her inspirational work. “Formless Things” focuses on her dedication to distinctive storytelling and worldview, incorporating traditional Japanese craftsmanship in the collection. This collection brought forward the idea of garments returning to the ocean of fabric; flowing endlessly, expressing formless things. As commentary against modern society’s rigid perceptions and increasing polarization of ideas, “Formless Things” aims to reach a broader audience and share its vision with the world. Seeking to incorporate traditional Japanese craftsmanship such as dyeing, weaving, and processing techniques, Tanaka hopes to also bring a greater awareness to Japan’s artisanal heritage. Currently focusing on Japan, THETHE plans to expand into Asia and Europe in the coming years, aiming for a global presence. Some eye-catching pieces in the collection included tailored jackets fastened with Satsuma buttons, showcasing the East-meets-West aesthetic. Garments were also constructed using a draping technique, skipping over the sketching and patterned design, allowing for a natural shape. Using monochromatic colors, it contrasts the fun play through the use of textures and fabrics. Pleated dresses, gun-barrel pants, and a classic peacoat fused with the signature 60s mini skirt reinvented classic silhouettes, while also reflecting a narrative of destruction and transformation.
