Much of the action centres on the Brera district, where its showrooms, galleries and installations draw a steady flow of designers, buyers and style enthusiasts. At the same time, the area’s courtyards and heritage buildings can become intimate counterpoints to the buzz of the main fair, offering visitors a chance to slow down and experience design at a more human... https://www.scmp.com/magazines/style/fashion/trends/article/3350806/style-edit-loro-piana-explores-art-plaid-milan-design-week-2026?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/magazines/style/fashion/trends/article/3350806/style-edit-loro-piana-explores-art-plaid-milan-design-week-2026?utm_source=rss_feed Wed, 22 Apr 2026 07:48:11 +0000 Annie Brown Annie Brown Granny would surely be delighted by one of the most pervasive handbag trends of now – the “kisslock” clasp bag. Originating in the early 20th century, the top-handle frame bag has a metal “twist and lock” closure of two beads that slip around each other in a sort of “kiss”. Often carried on a chain, though it can also be a coin purse, the bag has had many iterations through history.

Alongside looks featuring Damoflage, a pixelated take on the house’s classic Damier print, Williams also introduced the Speedy P9, a reimagination of the Maison’s iconic holdall first launched in 1930.

At the time, these losses conjoined into one upsetting blur – but over the years I stopped caring about most of them: the laptops and iPads have long been replaced, as have my bike and radio, and the clothes would no longer be particularly fashionable even if they were still hanging in my wardrobe. There is, however, one item that I have struggled to forget about: a necklace filled with individually chosen charms... https://www.scmp.com/magazines/style/fashion/trends/article/3348802/why-charm-jewellery-remains-timeless-way-wear-your-story?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/magazines/style/fashion/trends/article/3348802/why-charm-jewellery-remains-timeless-way-wear-your-story?utm_source=rss_feed Wed, 08 Apr 2026 02:00:16 +0000 Annie Brown Annie Brown Whether you’re channelling “country club chic” or prefer Mrs Prada’s subversive take on a sporting kind of preppiness, the past few seasons it’s been impossible to miss the return of the polo shirt. There were cropped versions at Rabanne, buttoned-up ones at Miu Miu, luxe grey ones at Tommy Hilfiger, and quarter-zip versions at Matthieu Blazy’s Chanel Métiers d’Art show, staged in a New York subway station.

The silhouette – typically a lightweight knit in the likes of cashmere – is versatile, soft and ideal for layering over a simple T-shirt or even wearing solo with jeans. This season, look out for cardies in muted pastel tones such as lilac and mint green.

The new Giglio and Borsetto bags sit firmly in the latter camp. Giglio – named after the lily that has long symbolised Florence, Gucci’s founding city – softens the idea of a tote. First seen on the cruise 2026 runway, it’s essentially a slouch with just enough discipline: a gently structured, roomy shape that can be worn long on the shoulder or... https://www.scmp.com/magazines/style/fashion/fashion-news/article/3348122/style-edit-guccis-giglio-and-borsetto-bags-redefine-quiet-luxury-city-dressing?utm_source=rss_feed https://www.scmp.com/magazines/style/fashion/fashion-news/article/3348122/style-edit-guccis-giglio-and-borsetto-bags-redefine-quiet-luxury-city-dressing?utm_source=rss_feed Mon, 30 Mar 2026 02:00:29 +0000 Annie Brown Annie Brown If there is one look that encapsulates Jonathan Anderson’s vision for Dior it could well be Greta Lee on the cover of American Vogue wearing not one but two of Anderson’s deeply opulent military jackets.
