Anyone else obsessed with the fashion in Apple TV’s Palm Royale? Here to give you a bit of that retro resort taste is the Uniqlo x Marimekko summer collection.

The two brands have revived six archival prints by the Finnish designer from the 1950s, ‘60s and ‘70s that embody the feeling of summer fun. Available in a wide array of dresses, T-shirts, skirts, bucket hats, the viral shoulder bag and more, this is a collab you’ll be sure to die for (spoiler alert!).

Levi’s x ERL is quintessential Cali-cool

Can you ever have too much denim? We certainly don’t think so, and neither does Levi’s and ERL. For Levi’s latest collab with the luxury unisex fashion brand, the duo have taken inspiration from both their Californian roots and infused a youthful energy to the mix.

Light-wash denim reigns supreme and 90’s silhouettes add an element of nostalgia, as seen in the flared jeans, shearling jacket and shoulder bag. California denim dreaming, indeed!

Kara Yoo re-imagines florals for spring

If Kara Yoo isn’t on your radar, she 100 per cent should be.

The Canadian jewellery designer is quickly making a name for herself with her bow-inspired earrings and necklaces. But this spring, she’s venturing into more botanical territory with the launch of In Bloom, a fresh take on florals for spring. Think oversized daisy earrings, silver rings and more whimsical wares.

New Balance might best be known for perfecting the Dad sneaker, but that all might change thanks to its new collab with Issey Miyake designer, Satoshi Kondo.

This is the first footwear project between the two brands and was inspired by “the concept of sensuous physicality and barefoot mobility,” and “natural and honest shape” as seen in the Issey Miyake Spring 2024 collection. The result is the newly transformed MT10 sneaker (also known as the Minimus), which is available at select stores in Japan now, and worldwide from Friday, June 14.

Burberry is adding a new famous face to its list of ambassadors: Son Suk-ku. The South Korean actor is perhaps best known for his performance in the popular Netflix series D.P, but you may have also seen him in shows like Matrimonial Chaos, My Liberation Notes and A Killer Paradox, as well as the films Nothing Serious and The Roundup.

‘I’ve long admired Burberry, so it’s a big honour to become Burberry’s ambassador,” Suk-ku said in a press release. “I look forward to my future journey with [the brand].”
