A handcrafted fragrance distilled from contradiction itself, this scent is composed entirely of 100% naturally derived botanical ingredients, blended into organic sugarcane alcohol. Unisex, vegan, and cruelty-free, it rejects binaries as easily as it seduces them. Now, in a darkly romantic collaboration with @warnerbros THE BRIDE!, @hereticparfum unveils a solid perfume compact that feels less like an accessory and more like an artifact—poured by hand into a blackened silver compact. The fragrance is built from opposing forces. Jasmine and rose are stitched together like cadaverous skin, stained by vintage violet leaf, orris, and cypriol. Delicate yet macabre, romantic yet electric, soft florals brush up against something almost feral; sweetness flickers before dissolving into shadow. It’s a scent that doesn’t behave—it lingers, haunts, resurrects. Pocket-sized and intimate, the solid format invites touch, ritual, and secrecy, like a talisman carried close to the body. @thebridemovie itself is an audacious reimagining inspired by Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein and its iconic 1935 cinematic resurrection, Bride of Frankenstein. Set in 1930s Chicago and led by an all-star cast including Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale, the film is written, co-produced, and directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal. The story follows Frankenstein as he enlists Dr. Euphronius to help create a companion. Together, they give life to a murdered woman reborn as the Bride, igniting a romance stitched together from desire, defiance, and the ache to be seen. Like the film, the fragrance exists in the liminal space between beauty and horror, devotion and danger. This is perfume as narrative, as mythmaking—an olfactory echo of love resurrected, charged with electricity and longing. Not merely worn, but invoked.

St. Valentine’s Day descends upon Monaco, where romance is not merely felt—it is celebrated with artistry, elegance, and refined extravagance. Indulge in the evening beneath the glittering chandeliers of Louis XV – @alainducasse at @hoteldeparismc, where every course is a masterstroke, a symphony of flavor crafted for the most discerning palate. Let the terraces of @montecarlobay take your breath away with sweeping vistas that rival the world’s finest works of art. Or surrender to pure luxury at the Duplex Diamond Suite at @hotelhermitagemc, complete with a private jacuzzi on the star-lit rooftop terrace and views conceived for moments that linger in memory forever. The grandeur continues at @cafedeparismc, where the iconic Place du Casino sets a stage of unparalleled elegance for a refined celebration. And on the evening of 14 February at 20:00, Cecilia and Plácido grace the stage of @opera_de_monte_carlo, offering a finale as perfect as the evening itself—a true cherry on top of a night steeped in sophistication. In #Monaco, love is never ordinary. It is a sovereign art: timeless, elevated, and exquisitely luxurious.

On the mirror-like ice of Lake St. Moritz, @white_turf turns winter into a stage of pure elegance and thrill. Since 1907, thoroughbred racing has collided with winter sport in a spectacle like no other. Horses in studded shoes thunder across the frozen track, while skijoring athletes glide with precision and daring. Spectators in impeccable winter attire line the lake’s edge, witnessing tradition and spectacle collide. The first race kicks off February 8, when the lake will again pulse with energy, style, and winter glamour, reaffirming White Turf as one of the world’s most extraordinary sporting events. #WhiteTurf #StMoritz

This February, a landmark cultural moment unfolds as #Qatar takes center stage. Commissioned for the inaugural launch of @ArtBasel Qatar, the art installation SONG (2026) is conceived by American neo-conceptual artist Jenny Holzer @jennyholzerstudio, whose pioneering practice has, for decades, shaped global discourse on language, power, and the public realm. Translating text into the sky itself, Holzer draws on profound poetry by Mahmoud Darwish—the late Palestinian poet whose lyrical voice indelibly shaped modern Arabic literature—and Nujoom Alghanem @nujoomalghanem, the eminent Emirati poet and filmmaker celebrated for her refined and incisive literary vision. Through light, scale, and collective visibility, the project unfolds as a shared moment of reflection, affirming Doha’s growing role as an international convening point for cultural exchange, artistic dialogue, and cross-regional understanding. The presentation sparkles with standout works, from Meriem Bennani’s mesmerizing kinetic installation Windy Project @francoisghebaly, to Jannis Kounellis’s bold industrialization project at Cardi Gallery @cardigallery, and Bouthayna Al Muftah’s evocative pieces at Al Markhiya Gallery @almarkhiyagallery—joined by a constellation of other remarkable contributions that bring the exhibition to thrilling life.

On a luminous Tuesday at Paris Haute Couture Week, @nicolekidman, @chanelofficial ever-graceful brand ambassador, captivated the Grand Palais in a vision where elegance met fantasy. Front-row luminaries included @DuaLipa, A$AP Rocky, Penélope Cruz, Tilda Swinton, @isimostar, and Kim Go-eun, all poised to witness @matthieu_blazy first haute couture debut. Silk mousseline in soft tones stripped Chanel’s iconic silhouettes to their purest architecture—light, ethereal, and breathtaking. Highlights included the sheer, skeletal classic bag, a delicate letter swaying with every step. The Grand Palais became an enchanted forest of sugar-toned mushrooms and blush-dyed willow trees, a magical clearing where models floated like ethereal silhouettes, heels levitating above the flora. Every detail spoke of mastery, imagination, and the maison’s timeless savoir-faire. Chanel SS26 was a luminous vision of inspiration—haute couture at its most dreamlike, a reminder that fantasy and craftsmanship can exist in perfect harmony. #CHANELHauteCouture #CHANELShow

If winter had a runway, it would be Aspen. This past Saturday, @moncler Grenoble turned the snow-dusted T-Lazy-7 Ranch into a stage for its Fall/Winter 2026 collection—where technical innovation meets timeless elegance. Models glided across alpine terrain in outerwear that’s equal parts performance and poetry: waxed cotton jackets, shearling layers, tweed blazers, and loden cloaks, accented with Aspen-inspired motifs and subtle map prints. Cinched waists, rounded silhouettes, and modern construction nod to 1950s style while embracing high-altitude functionality. Fringe, plaid, and embroidery add a touch of whimsy to pieces that move effortlessly from piste to après-ski cocktail. High-performance ski and snowboard gear—waterproof, windproof, and breathable—was on full display, including a co-designed snowboard from Shaun White’s WHITESPACE label. Aspen, it seems, is the perfect canvas: rugged yet refined, adventurous yet luxurious. Guests sparkled like freshly fallen snow: Shaun White, Kevin Costner, Maria Sharapova, Bianca Balti, and Penn Badgley. Their presence underscored Aspen’s allure: a place where the culturally attuned, the adventurous, and the affluent converge. With its first U.S. flagship store opening in Aspen, #MonclerGrenoble reinforces the city’s status as a hub of alpine sophistication. Winter here is not just a season—it’s haute couture in motion. #Aspen isn’t merely a backdrop. With breathtaking peaks, curated ski culture, world-class dining, and discreet luxury, it’s no wonder the world’s elite return season after season.

𝗠𝗲𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗮 is now in theaters across the United States and select international markets, following its premiere at Washington, D.C.’s newly renamed @thetrumpkennedycenter The premiere welcomed a notable cross-section of guests, including cultural figures such as Nicki Minaj, @georginagio, and Mike Tyson, as well as Dr. Mehmet Oz, alongside members of the Trump political sphere, including Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. The gathering reflected the broad public interest surrounding the film and its subject. An intimate chronicle, Melania offers a rare look into the life of @melaniatrump, tracing her journey from her early years in Slovenia to her time as First Lady of the United States. The documentary explores her role in the White House and her relationship with the President with a measured, observational approach, emphasizing personal perspective over political commentary. Defined by composure, discretion, and a carefully cultivated public presence, Melania Trump presents a portrait of a modern First Lady shaped by the demands of public life. In doing so, the film invites audiences to consider the complexity and restraint required by one of the most visible roles in contemporary society.

At Paris Haute Couture Week, shown at the @museerodinparis, Dior’s moment felt less like a fashion show and more like a laboratory of evolution—part experiment, part springtime spell. Set within the orbit of Christian Dior’s lifelong obsession with flowers, Jonathan Anderson grounded his vision in the house’s botanical DNA, crafting something distinctly contemporary. On Monday, January 26, Anderson unveiled a 63-look couture procession, bound by the idea of the wunderkammer—the 16th-century “cabinet of curiosities,” where art, science, and beauty coexisted without hierarchy. At Dior, Anderson turned couture itself into a living cabinet, with past and present arranged not chronologically, but emotionally. The experience didn’t end with the runway. At the Musée Rodin, the show continued through an installation bringing together works by @magdaleneodundo, original pieces by Christian Dior, and Anderson’s new couture collection—positioning the clothes in direct dialogue with art, legacy, and form. And here’s the twist: @jonathan.anderson didn’t try to rewrite Dior couture. That restraint may be his most radical move yet. Instead, he expanded its vocabulary, acknowledging that couture is never built in a single season. It’s accumulated. Layered. Shaped by time, memory, and many hands. Leaving guests in awe and his creations quite literally in bloom, Anderson’s debut honored continuity while allowing space for evolution. @dior couture didn’t restart. It flowered.

At first glance, you miss it. Then it snaps into focus— and suddenly you can’t unsee the future @pppiccioli just stitched into Balenciaga’s DNA. Piccioli’s take on @balenciaga isn’t a Demna sequel—it’s a precision-engineered time machine, a divine splice where Cristóbal’s architectural past, Demna’s digital dystopia, and Piccioli’s romantic futurism collide so smoothly you swear it was inevitable. Spoiler: it wasn’t. It took surgical vision. The new collections look deceptively simple—until the details ambush you. A 1960s eveningwear silhouette quietly welded to bio-engineered jersey. A couture opera glove paired with a gym membership. A leather jacket that behaves like sculpture but wears like second skin. This is fashion with delayed impact. Blink and you’ll miss the joke. Stare, and you’ll realize it’s a thesis. And then come the collaborations: the NBA, Manolo Blahnik—two cultural planets that shouldn’t orbit the same sun, yet Piccioli bends gravity. He doesn’t just mix aesthetic ideologies; he layers entire realities, like a designer who moonlights as a physicist. The lookbook trails a cast of actors, artists, musicians, models—people who have no time to pose because they’re too busy living. They commute in monastic leather. They run errands in sculptural tailoring. They hit the gym in gowns whispering Cristóbal’s 1960s couture—but with the unapologetic swagger of the now. It’s Balenciaga as a living organism, caught mid-mutation. And we, the audience—jaded, overstimulated, scrolling at the speed of apathy—pause. Because something here feels eerily familiar, almost ancestral, yet defiantly new. That’s the stealth power of Piccioli’s #Balenciaga: first you don’t see it— then you can’t stop seeing everything it’s telling you about where fashion has been and where it’s about to go.

What do you do when sadness comes to call? At @vamuseum, @evaeland shows us a different way: to welcome it. Her art is gentle, lyrical, and full of quiet magic — each illustration a soft invitation to pause, reflect, and feel. She doesn’t fight sadness; she meets it with tender observation, turning heavy emotions into moments of awareness, care, and hope. When Sadness Comes to Call (V&A Illustration Awards 2020, Book Cover Award) teaches the art of naming emotions and giving them space. Where Happiness Begins traces the soft, luminous path that follows acceptance. Eland’s work reminds us that even the hardest feelings can be met with curiosity, compassion, and quiet joy — and that art itself can be a gentle guide through the heart.

Dubai’s dining scene just got a game-changer. @itsallother at Dar A Wasl is where design, light, and gastronomy collide, evolving effortlessly from a sunlit café to an intimate evening destination. Every corner is a sensory experience — from sculptural furniture and bespoke lighting to hidden nooks perfect for lingering. By day, OTHER serves saffron-infused lattes, inventive mocktails with local herbs, and pastries that blur the line between art and dessert.

Signature cocktails arrive in custom glassware, their flavors as unexpected as the space itself. Subtle shadows, sculptural accents, and curated soundscapes turn dinner into a full-sensory journey. Design lovers will delight in modern Middle Eastern aesthetics, tactile textures, and playful surprises — from hanging lanterns that mimic stars to hidden alcoves ideal for a quiet toast. OTHER isn’t just a restaurant; it’s an evolving narrative of taste, light, and atmosphere that shifts with the day. Find OTHER at 9 Dar Al Wasi, Al Wasi, Dubai, open Monday–Sunday, 7 PM–1 AM.

This winter, the Swiss Alps gain a new address in elegance as @harrysbarmayfair arrives at @thealpinagstaad. From 10 to 20 February 2026, the legendary London members’ club takes over the alpine retreat, infusing Gstaad’s snowbound calm with its unmistakable Italian spirit. Within The Alpina’s discreet luxury, dining becomes ritual. Bellinis are poured with precision, carpaccio is served in its purest form, and classic Italian dishes speak softly but confidently—timeless, unfussy, exacting. Tradition, here, is not nostalgia but discipline. The residency recasts the hotel as a living scene: velvet-toned interiors, mahogany echoes, and terraces opening onto vast glacial views. Every detail feels intentional, never theatrical. Hospitality is measured, intimate, and assured. For ten winter days, Harry’s Bar at The Alpina Gstaad is more than a pop-up—it’s a moment. A collision of heritage and altitude, where Italian elegance meets alpine restraint, and nothing is overstated. #TheAlpinaGstaad #HarrysBar #Gstaad

A palm tree rises in the middle of Paris — not as decoration, but as declaration. With Le Palmier, @jacquemus enters the Musée National Picasso-Paris not to borrow prestige, but to engage it. Fashion steps into one of Europe’s most charged cultural spaces and holds its ground. At 8PM CET, the museum comes alive. Walls observe. Courtyards move. History hums. Jacquemus’ silhouettes pass through not as disruption, but as continuity — fashion in conversation with art. Streaming live on Instagram and jacquemus.com, the show privileges presence over spectacle. Le Palmier is both form and idea: rooted, vertical, sun-fed. Endurance with softness. Growth with grace. Mediterranean minimalism sharpens into something architectural. Works by Pablo Picasso ©️ Succession Picasso 2026 quietly charge the space, while Diego Giacometti’s sculptural bancs et chaises ©️ ADAGP, Paris, 2026 ground it in lived modernism — art as atmosphere, not artifact. Le Palmier reflects on scale, light, and lineage. On inhabiting history without erasing it. On softness as authority. On restraint as power. This is Jacquemus distilled: less noise, more nerve. Less show, more substance. Not competing with art — standing beside it, steady and assured. #jacquemus #museenationalpicasso #paris

@gentlemonster, the globally revered South Korean eyewear avant-gardist, unveils its 2026 Bouquet Collection with a sweeping campaign film co-directed by visionary polymath FKA twigs @fkatwigs and boundary-pushing filmmaker Jordan Hemingway @jordan_hemingway. Scored by an unreleased track from FKA twigs herself, the film unfurls as a dreamlike study in bloom—equal parts sensual, spectral, and defiantly surreal. A kaleidoscope of petals at their apex becomes the portal into Gentle Monster’s latest world-building feat: an immersive pop-up space that dissolves the line between installation and fantasy. The Bouquet Collection extends this poetry into form, presenting sculptural frames shaped by loops, tangles, and tensile botanical motifs. Soft, organic silhouettes heighten the collection’s expressive cadence, culminating in a standout piece lavishly dressed in vivid beadwork. #gentlemonster

A journey into the heart of Provence sets the tone for @loropiana Spring/Summer 2026 Collection. Photographed by Mario Sorrenti, the campaign unfolds across Saint-Paul-de-Vence, one of Europe’s most mythic artistic enclaves. Perched above the Mediterranean, the village has, since the early 20th century, drawn modernism’s greats — Picasso, Braque, Léger, Miró, Chagall — who found in its golden light and cobbled stillness a place where creation felt inevitable. That legacy breathes through its landmarks: the Colombe d’Or, whose walls carry original works traded over dinners, and the @fondationmaeght, a sculptural labyrinth conceived to let art live in direct conversation with nature. Within these charged spaces, models Jacqui Hooper, Long Li, Vasko Luyckx, Awar Odhiang and Binx Walton appear not posed but absorbed — part of a landscape where art is inhabited rather than observed. Loro Piana’s SS26 silhouettes echo the village’s quiet rhythm: fluid, luminous, and steeped in the Maison’s language of silent luxury. As Sorrenti describes it, Saint-Paul-de-Vence becomes a “timeless sanctuary” where the collection settles instinctively. The season’s highlight accessory, the Extra Softy, refines the iconic Extra Bag into a more elongated, tactile form. Crafted in satin, braided leather, fine-grained leather, buttery calf and the exclusive Wish Cash Double Chevron, it’s finished with a three-dimensional golden padlock and vintage-coded Ghiera charm. Available in two sizes and hues from fossil to ancient sandstone, already available in boutiques and online. With SS26, Loro Piana presents more than a collection — it composes a visual ode to Saint-Paul-de-Vence, where history, art, craft and understated elegance intertwine in a way that transcends the season.

@moss.nyc is not just a members club — it’s a modern playground for the intellectually curious and physically active. Nestled at the heart of Manhattan on Fifth Avenue, Moss spans five floors designed for every facet of life: corner tables for breakfast meetings, a private dining room for intimate soirées, a sauna to unwind, a sports court to blow off steam, a vinyl lounge, a podcast studio, and even a dual-bay golf simulator. Here, connection and reflection coexist, with each space tailored for thought, play, or performance. Inspired by historic creative and intellectual communities, Moss-made programming spans art exhibitions, musical performances, interdisciplinary salons, and supper clubs — a living invitation to gather, converse, and think differently. Interiors, crafted with Vicky Charles (former Soho House design director), balance sophistication and whimsy: wood-paneled walls, towering windows, a vintage Steinway, an early 20th-century billiards table reupholstered in petal pink, and a rotating collection of art, including works by Rashid Johnson. Weekly floral arrangements by April Johnson of Flowerpsycho add dramatic, ever-changing flourishes throughout. Dining concepts include Babette, as well as specialty spaces like a vinyl listening room and The Symposium, designed for salons, fireside chats, and performances. Wellness lives under Bedrock Aquatics & Athletics, featuring a hammam-inspired structure with thermal pools, steam rooms, and saunas. Athletic offerings include Pilates reformers, custom cardio equipment, pickleball, and low-impact recreation — all rendered in Moss’s soothing signature palette. Moss is a home away from home for New Yorkers seeking intelligent leisure — a place where culture, design, cuisine, wellness, and play meet in thoughtful harmony.

Coincidence or algorithmic destiny — you decide. The @urartu__gallery flower gallery in Dubai feels less like a retail space and more like a controlled dreamscape, a place where architecture, art, and obsession converge. Its centrepiece is a 250-kg hand-drawn orchid sculpture by @harrynuriev — a tribute to gallerist @oh_my_gosha_1’s favourite flower, echoed in miniature through custom orchid-shaped door handles. From the outside, visitors encounter a single red double-glazed arch, a portal into a hollow checked cube that blurs fantasy and industrial precision. Inside, the space juxtaposes Italian marble from @stonetta.ae with aluminium cladding and stainless-steel–effect finishes crafted by @jotunpaintsarabia. The palette is almost clinically restrained — silver, steel, stone — except for one colour that cuts through everything: red. Red as signal, red as obsession, red as the gallery’s emotional temperature. The gallery is also fully soundproofed, turning the absence of noise into a material of its own. Even the flowers — the gallery’s supposed subject — resist easy viewing. They sit in a walk-in refrigerated chamber, visible only as muted silhouettes behind tinted glass. In this state of semi-reveal, they become part of the installation itself: alive yet unreachable, blooming in secrecy. Part sculpture garden, part conceptual experiment, Urartu’s flower gallery reimagines the traditional florist as an immersive, architectural artwork — one where silence, colour, and form speak louder than petals.

Maison @louisvuitton Beijing Sanlitun marks a new era of 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗹𝘂𝘅𝘂𝗿𝘆 — a sculptural flagship where architecture, culture, and fashion meet. Its fluid glass façade, designed by longtime LV partner Jun Aoki, draws from the elegance of Taihu stones and a flowing Spring–Summer 2016 silhouette by @NicolasGhesquiere. Aoki frames Beijing as a city of “𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗻𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲,” inspiring a structure shaped by the four classical principles of scholar’s rock appreciation: Shòu (slender poise), Zhòu (textured “wrinkles”), Lòu (hollowed depth), and Tòu (transparency). The result is a glowing, translucent “garment” of architecture — a condensed landscape rather than a façade. Inside, the Maison spans four levels, presenting the full Louis Vuitton universe — from ready-to-wear and leather goods to jewellery, beauty, and the Maison collection — along with four private client lounges. LV’s Architecture Studio shapes the interior through cascading voids and vertical light wells that continually reveal new perspectives of the façade. At the summit sits Beijing’s first 𝗟𝗼𝘂𝗶𝘀 𝗩𝘂𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗮𝗳é, complete with a private dining room and 250 sqm of outdoor terraces, extending the House’s art of living into design-led gastronomy. The opening also mirrors a broader luxury shift: as Bain & Company notes, growth now comes from emotion over acquisition. The Sanlitun Maison embraces this pivot — transforming retail into 𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 and aligning with @lvmh renewed focus on China’s creative heritage. A flagship not just to visit, but to 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲. #MaisonLouisVuittonSanlitun #Beijing #LouisVuitton
Dubai’s desert is set to transform into one of the world’s most ambitious land-art experiences with @cliodesert — 𝗮 10-𝗸𝗺 𝗶𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 that unfurls across the sands like a system of 𝗹𝘂𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲?
Dubai’s desert is set to transform into one of the world’s most ambitious land-art experiences with @cliodesert — 𝗮 10-𝗸𝗺 𝗶𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 that unfurls across the sands like a system of 𝗹𝘂𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀, guiding visitors toward a singular circular point of reflection. Spanning one million square meters near Margham, the installation is composed of 25,000 canvas modules, forming a walkable corridor where movement becomes meditation and the landscape becomes part of the artwork itself. Conceived by international artist @agron__hoti, CLIO Desert reimagines the desert not as an empty expanse but as a 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻. The project draws from ancient pilgrimage routes, celestial mapping, and the topographic poetry of dunes, turning each step into a dialogue between art, memory, and the sublime quiet of the Arabian landscape. At its heart stands Clio House, a circular, spacecraft-like pavilion designed by architect Matteo Antonelli. Suspended between futurism and ritual architecture, the structure offers 360° views, exhibition spaces, talks, performances, and communal zones meant to cultivate 𝗿𝗲𝗳𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. By night, it becomes a lantern in the desert — a gathering point for storytelling, soundscapes, and stargazing. Set to break ground in March 2026, the project will open in stages beginning 2027, with full completion expected by 2033. Projected to attract 4.8 million visitors, CLIO Desert Park positions Dubai at the forefront of global land-art destinations, turning the desert into a vast canvas where art, nature, and human presence 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗲. #CLIOdesert #LandArtExperience #DubaiArt
