Wedding Comprehension

Decide on a dress that suits your personality, the wedding you and your spouse have planned, and, most importantly, that makes you feel your best. Take notes from fashion houses like Christian Dior, Alexander McQueen and Zimmerman.

Big Me Out

It’s 2023 and ‘90s styles are still, generally making a comeback, and we especially love to see the return of bigger pieces because they can be so much fun to play with. Loewe, Rick Owens and Valentino show us how it’s done.

Short Deco

Bare legs are the antithesis of formal and business attire, according to the rules of conventional menswear of Fendi, AMI and Prada. More male-style rebels are wearing shorts on the most formal occasions, including date night, high-end fashion shows, and even the Met Gala.

Armour City

The armour craze is an extension of the skin-to-world limits we’ve already established. We are now prepared for battle and attired accordingly, just like the knights who fought the plague in the Middle Ages while walking around in full-on Armour.

How to Elevate Your Style With These Must-Have Colours for Every Wardrobe

When it comes to building a capsule wardrobe, having a range of colours to choose from is essential. While your personal style and preferences may play a significant role in selecting colours, there are a few must-have colours that look great on everyone, regardless of skin tone or style. In this article, Gafencu has put together the essential colours that every wardrobe should have and provided some styling tips to help you make the most of them.

Black

Black is a classic colour that everyone definitely has in their wardrobe because it is a versatile colour that can be effortlessly dressed up or down and it works well in any season. Best of all, black is flattering on almost every skin tone, as it creates a beautiful contrast. Like many other dark colours, black can also make you look slim. When styling black, consider pairing it with other neutral colours or adding a pop of colour with accessories.

White

White is another essential colour that works for everyone. It is a fresh and clean colour that can be worn in any season and it looks good on different skin tones. Similar to black, you can never go wrong while pairing white with other neutral shades or elevating your look with an accent colour of your choice. The only issue with white is having to be extra careful while maintaining it as even the slightest stain shows prominently on them.

Navy

If you are looking for another dark colour that can be considered as an alternative to black, then navy is certainly a great option. Besides, some people may avoid using black as they may associate the colour with bad luck. In that case, the navy colour is a great pick and it also looks less harsh. As a colour that can easily replace black, this dark blue shade can also be styled just the way you would style black.

Grey

Another common colour that is an ideal alternative to black is grey which you can flaunt in any season. It is a universal colour that can be perfectly incorporated into your daily office wear, athleisure, party wear and more. Though this shade can suit everyone, it looks the most suitable for people with cooler skin tones.

Red

Red is a bold and bright colour that can add a pop of colour to any outfit. It is extra appealing for those with warmer skin tones. It is the best colour to dress up in if you are looking to make a strong impression. When styling red, consider pairing it with other neutral colours.

Styling Tips

When it comes to styling these essential colours, there are some simple tips to remember. First, consider your skin tone when selecting colours. Those with warmer skin tones may want to opt for warmer colours like red and green, while those with cooler skin tones may prefer cooler colours like navy and grey.

Another factor to look into, when selecting colours, is the occasion you will be wearing the outfit. Neutral colours like black, white, and navy work well for more formal occasions, while bolder colours like red and green can add a pop of colour to casual outfits.

Finally, feel free to experiment with different colour combinations. Mixing and matching different colours can create unique and interesting outfits that reflect your personal style without making you look like you are repeating the same outfit on most days.

Law of Collab: Brand collaborations evolve as collections of creative alliances necessary for any type of business

Brand collaborations are generally visionary alliances of inspiring creativity, but in one respect they are no-brainers – they are done because of their effectiveness to garner higher sales and reach a wider audience. The 2010s were the peak years of collaboration, but the phenomenon that began back in the early 2000s was initially just hype. Since then, it has been proven that two is really better than one by making the sole product or service more exclusive, and therefore the demand higher. Many of these items become rare collectables with a prestige value that increases as the years go by.

Collaborations also strengthen a brand’s reputation by supporting artists, charitable organisations and innovations. Essentially, modern brands must be relatable and accessible, savvy social communicators, and the centre of a community of creatives, artists, muses and friends – and true enough, no one does it alone.

With the younger spending groups becoming smarter with their purchases, luxury brands in particular have had to make their products more memorable by creating unusual visuals, packaging and taste associations. As there are no set guidelines for how companies and other partners should collaborate, the success of the initiative depends on ingenuity. But in the era of serial collaboration, how does one stand out?

Long-Term Benefits

Collaborations between brands are the most common phenomenon. Such action may involve working with a partner brand on a joint product line, collaborating to provide a service package or creating products that perfectly match each other. Collaboration at the brand level often means reaching a wider audience. As a rule, the audience of such ‘one-off’ campaigns can exceed the audience of both brands together and bring unique value to clients.

One perfect example is the launch of the first Dior Men collection by Kim Jones. It generated a lot of excitement, not only for its fusion of workwear and couture trends but also for the roster of well-known designers Jones gathered under the Dior brand. Yoon Ahn, the co-founder of Ambush, was appointed head of jewellery for Dior Men while custom buckles were created by Matthew Williams, the independent mastermind behind Alyx, for Jones’s first two collections. In this way, Jones developed a community of creatives that he could continue to collaborate with for the foreseeable future rather than promoting these alliances as typical collabs – or worse, hiring Yoon and Williams without giving them credit.

Icons x Newbies

The most traditional choice of collaboration is a business enterprise working with an artist. This partnership gives the artist creative licence so that the finished product is an original work of art rather than a well-completed design task. By celebrating both the old and the young, the established and the rising star, products are raised to a new artistic level.

With limited resources and access, emerging fashion designers have a difficult time breaking into the industry. Some major brands have formed beneficial alliances with up-and-coming acquired a measure of rejuvenation or street cred.

Case in point: Burberry. Although he finally changed both, Riccardo Tisci’s first objective upon joining Burberry in 2018 was neither to revamp the logo nor reimagine the runway presentation. He announced that he would be working with Vivienne Westwood and made news when a legacy brand and an anti-establishment designer clashed culturally. Truly, Tisci was creating room in the battle for the novelty to honour a fashion icon.

A similar strategy was used by Nicolas Ghesquière at Louis Vuitton in the same year when he commissioned Vogue legend Grace Coddington to create a line of accessories that were based on their pets. By working with Coddington, Ghesquière demonstrated that fashion can be more than a business – he also solidified the significance of her capacity to influence fashion from behind the scenes. Are we primarily talking about reputational and PR benefits here? Maybe. Is it effective? Definitely.

Face Time: Delightful dial styles for discerning haute horology investors and collectors

Through the ages, many of the finest watchmakers have frequently sought inspiration from the worlds of art and fashion. Typically, this has led to powerful graphic imagery being incorporated into the delightful dial styles of some of the most memorable high-end precision timepieces. At present, numerous such high-concept horological high points merit particular attention.

First up, there is the third watch in Chopard’s L.U.C Skull One series, an exclusive collection inspired by Día de los Muertos – Mexico’s infamous Day of the Dead festival. Available as a 25-piece limited edition, its bold, high-concept design embodies the marque’s hallmark creativity and innovation, while also remaining a prime example of horological excellence. Its centrepiece is a vivid, pop art-inspired Mexican calavera – the annual festival’s unmistakable skull motif – presented in bright flashes of colour and surrounded by a 40mm black beadblasted, DLC-coated stainless-steel case.

In essence, the L.U.C Skull One Calavera Pop Art is a striking blackened stainless-steel watch powered by an exquisite, hand-finished mechanical movement. Defined by its uncompromising and iridescent homage to the Day of the Dead’s timeless rituals, its dial features a transferred skull motif in punchy hues of blue, red, orange, green and yellow, giving the watch an unashamedly non-conformist, pop-art feel.

Second up is something of a departure for Hermès, with the forefronting of its new Super H brand hero motif akin to a horological Bat-Signal in the sky above a stunning graphic representation of Paris. The timepiece in question – the Slim d’Hermès Minuit au Faubourg – ably fuses the world of pop art with the French capital’s iconic skyline and is available in two limited edition series, each comprising 24 highly distinct, exquisitely wrought watches. The singular style of the range, meanwhile, is largely derived from a celebrated silk scarf designed in 2014 by Dimitri Rybaltchenko, an award-winning French artist.

On its highly distinctive dial, the Eiffel Tower stands out against a sky streaked with clouds and studded with aventurine stars, while a beam of light (fashioned from Super-LumiNova) projects out from the unmistakable monument. It is surrounded by a hand-drawn, micropainted embodiment of Parisian life, with its multi-layered rendering bestowing a grimy canvas-like finish.

Equally enchanting is the fourth iteration of Roger Dubuis’ Urban Culture Tribe collection – the Excalibur Liu Wei Monotourbillon (MT). Keen to make this edition supremely special, the marque granted renowned sculptor and illustrator Liu Wei access to its fabled inner sanctum – the Manufacture itself. It was within its venerable walls that the much-admired artist set about reinterpreting the astral signature of the iconic Excalibur MT. Opting for a complex composite of multi-coloured lines, Liu delivered a stylised, bustling, digitised statement piece, which reinvented the original Excalibur MT as a beguiling blend of clashing colours and pulsing lights that uniquely captures the modern urban world.

Building on this, the brand then opted to enhance the hour markers with black SuperLuminova, creating a vivid glow-in-the-dark effect, which is most strikingly apparent under UV light. In a further refinement, the Roger Dubuis and Swiss Made logos have been accentuated with powdered SuperLuminova for the first time, an innovation that sees this element of the timepiece shift through three different colour variants – silver by day, green by night and blue under UV light.

Moving on now to something equally engaging for the lady who loves fine timepieces, the Vacheron Constantin Égérie collection, with its eternally elegant embrace of Haute Couture and Haute Horlogerie, was unashamedly conceived as a paean to discerning femininity.

Daintily engraved in the style of Burano lace, the dial of the Égérie Creative Edition sees five enchanting elements expertly superimposed to create a dial of rare distinction. Re-deploying an ancient decorative technique and executed by the marque’s master guillocheur on venerable 100-year-old equipment, the pleated tapisserie motif sits on a silver base, a fine counterpoint to the black enamel.

Commenting on the inspiration for the piece, Christian Selmoni, the brand’s Style and Heritage Director, said: “During the course of Vacheron Constantin’s long history, many of its finest timepieces have been inspired by embroidery and lace motifs, particularly those drawn from the Art Nouveau and Art Deco eras. More recently, lace has inspired our Métiers d’Art Fabuleux Ornements – French lace timepiece combining guilloché work, Grand Feu enamelling and gem-setting.”

Finally, for this month, we turn to the Moonphase, Skeleton and Flying Tourbillon Pasha de Cartier watches. Developed and produced at the Cartier Manufacture in La Chaux-de-Fonds, the first of these features a delicate moon-phase movement in the shape of a circle surrounded by a midnight-blue star-strewn planisphere, a striking contrast to the typically bold design of a Pasha de Cartier watch.

The Best Fashion Collections That Were Inspired by Art

For decades, fashion has become a canvas for some remarkable art pieces, and the result was some phenomenal and much-loved collections that helped people appreciate both art and fashion at the same time. Here are some of the most iconic collaborations since the 1960s.

Yves Saint Laurent x Piet Mondrian

Yves Saint Laurent has collaborated with many artists to date but the one with Piet Mondrian can never be forgotten. The fashion house’s Autumn/ Winter 1965 collection grasped the geometrics and colour-blocking techniques of Mondrian’s art perfectly. The creation not only gave fashion lovers some iconic vintage pieces but also paved way for the French fashion Maison’s success.

Versace x Andy Warhol

A collaboration that came as a result of Versace’s admiration for Andy Warhol is the Italian designer’s Spring/Summer 1991 collection, otherwise known as the “Pop” collection which included the American artist’s artwork. The most remarkable of them all was a dress featuring Andy Warhol’s best screen prints featuring portraits of Marilyn Monroe and James Dean, and it will always be remembered in the history of fashion.

Hermés x Hiroshi Sugimoto

Japanese artist Hiroshi Sugimoto’s project titled Colours of Shadow was a perfect mix of the artist’s play with colours and the principles of physics that gave a simple ombre painting, a magical effect. Hermés’s artistic director Pierre-Alexis Dumas took one look at the abstract painting and went ahead with the artist’s suggestion to transfer it to Hermés scarves.

Louis Vuitton x Jeff Koons

Most people recognise Jeff Koons’s famous art pieces, Balloon dog and Rabbit, but art enthusiasts know his most-loved and also very controversial work, The Gazing Ball series. It represented the works of some great artists like Van Gogh and Da Vinci in a new light. Among those who were impressed by Jeff Koons’s The Gazing Ball series was Louis Vuitton who decided to bring the paintings to LV bags

Vans x Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh’s works have been cherished and admired by art experts and common people alike. So, when Vans decided to feature the artist’s paintings in its collection, it gave rise to an incredible line. Van Gogh’s iconic works like Almond Blossoms, Sunflowers, Van Gogh’s self-portrait and Skull took a new life on Vans sneakers and jackets.

Gucci x Elton John

The Italian fashion house Gucci’s collaboration with singer-songwriter Elton John brought Gucci enthusiasts and the singer’s fans a remarkable collection. The cover art of his single “Levon” was printed on t-shirts, sweatshirts and tote bags of the brand. The capsule collection supposedly reflects the whimsical characteristics of the song.
