Louis Vuitton x Yayoi Kusama – Paint The Town Polka-Dots
Starting off, we present the second collaboration between Louis Vuitton and Yayoi Kusama. The French label has once again partnered with the Japanese pop artist to bring a collection which embodies the very best of art and fashion. Releasing this month, the capsule collection comes ten years after their first venture. First showcasing the collaboration at their Cruise 2023 runway, we can expect to see classic LV handbags with Kusama’s infamous polka-dot prints. The iconic monogramed styles of the luxury fashion house will be reimagined in new ways with Kusama’s artistic influence.
The whole collaboration is so playful. The website allows viewers to interact with the art as the mouse tool transforms into a paintbrush, which allows you to paint polka-dots across the screen. Talk about painting the town red, Louis Vuitton has painted the whole city of Tokyo in polka-dots. Tokyo Tower and Shiba Park are included in the collaborative revamp, and if that’s not able to gain hype, we don’t know what would. Pop-up art exhibitions have appeared in the city and digital billboards show the anticipated collaboration. The incredible idea of transforming the capital of the artist’s home, celebrates the partnership as the city becomes an outdoor playground of art and fashion. We can’t rave about it enough and if we were to describe it in one word, it would be fun! Keep your eyes peeled this month for the drop of the Louis Vuitton x Yayoi Kusama collaboration.
Ganni x Ester Manas – Cool And Fierce Collide
Scandinavian sleek meets luxury inclusivity. This collaboration designed for Summer 23 has been kept quite quiet. We were able to receive a sneaky peak during the showing of Ester Manas’s ‘Sunset Body’ collection, and that was enough to have us hooked. This is a fashion partnership which we are very excited to view and are hoping to see more clues in the coming weeks as to what this collection will entail.
What do we know? We know Ganni creates minimalist, cool styles which push the boundaries of street style. We know Ester Manas focuses on body empowerment and inclusivity, producing fierce designs which embody their focus. Their ‘Sunset Body’ collection for beach and swimwear remained true to their brand ethos and featured sexy pieces in radiant colours of pinks, limes and oranges. So, we can imagine the collaboration will not neglect either brand voice and find strength together. As for the clothing, both brands are very different in their style and this is exciting to think about what they will produce. We do predict it will be an incredible partnership and benefit both parties involved.
Savage Fenty x Super Bowl- It’s A Touchdown
Your Super Bowl look is here. Rihanna has officially created a 17 piece collection for watching the game in style. The Game Day collection sizes range from XXS-4XL and feature a number of sporty styles including a varsity jacket and sweatpants. We are very hyped at the two worlds colliding and in doing so creating some iconic pieces. Rihanna fans and sports fans unite as this collection brings you the best of both worlds.
The limited edition collection celebrates American Football and embodies a stylish sports fan aesthetic. Talking colours, the collection comes in ‘Cookie Brown’ and ‘Black Caviar’. On brand with Rihanna, the collection is very cool and we are kind of obsessed.

Fendi x Marc Jacobs- Loving The Lunar
In celebration of Lunar New Year, Fendi have brought us some new styles. Their iconic Fendi Roma logo has been reimagined by Marc Jacobs and appears on multiple styles. Classic baguette bags, sweatshirts and even a silk foulard. An exciting creative collaboration with an even more exciting output. The collaboration focuses on the signature colour associated with the Lunar New Year- red. The two-toned collection is fun but also remains classically Fendi.
