Tekla: The Colors of Le Corbusier

February 21, 2023

Tekla, in collaboration with Les Couleurs Suisse AG, the exclusive licensor of the original Le Corbusier colours, released their second collection of complimentary and contrasting blankets. The limited-edition collection captured by Ben Beagent is presented at Le Lac, the holiday home designed for the parents of Swiss-French architect, Le Corbuisier, in Switzerland. Mirrored in the blanket design, the home and Le Corbuisier’s architectural polychromy colors are featured in seven blankets with either checked or striped typologies.

“There’s a common belief that Le Corbusier was a minimalist, but when researching, we found archive photos that revealed his personal living spaces were filled with different textures, colours, and objects,” said Charlie Hedin, Founder and Creative Director at Tekla.

Woven by artisanal producers in Scotland, the checked blankets feature a tonal colourway with a textured blend of cashmere and lambswool finished with whipstitching at the outer edge. As for the striped blankets, 100% lambswool is finished with a natural, fringed edge in more vibrant colors.

FFC Presents: Osamason Modeled in Spicie

July 01, 2026

On June 25th, 2026, Osamason modeled Spicie, the women-owned fashion brand known for translating crochet-inspired patterns into streetwear silhouettes. One week later, Spicie will bring that same world directly into the live concert environment with a drop at Osamason's July 2nd show at The Mayan Theatre in Los Angeles.

Powered by Fashion Focused Concerts, also known as FFC, the moment is underwritten and produced as an artist-led fashion activation for brands looking to enter live music without defaulting to traditional concert merch. The collaborative "Shop the Stage" idea from Spicie founder Amber and Temple (who led the transition of Spicie's crochet patterns into ready-to-wear streetwear). Spicie's Venom Denim and Butterfly Beanie will be available both online at 9PM PST and in-venue when the show kicks off, giving fans the ability to shop the look in real time.

The concept reframes the difference between merch and apparel, between runway and stage. Rather than creating a tour tee or one-off souvenir, Spicie is introducing an apparel-first alternative inside the concert environment, treating the venue as a live retail space where fashion exists inside the same culture that inspires it.

For FFC, the Mayan moment represents a larger shift in how branded drops can live inside concerts. Fans are already looking to artists for style cues. This model gives fans access to the product while the moment is still happening.

As fashion and music continue to merge, this activation points toward a new expectation for live events: not just merch tables, but real apparel drops built directly into the concert experience.

This is not only a new business model for retail and live music, but it shifts the meaning of merchandise to be more intentful. Here, fashion is not an afterthought but the foundation of the event. With FFC, fans can not only feel more connected to artists, but to the clothes themselves.

Saucony Looks Ahead in Paris

July 01, 2026

Saucony returned to Paris Fashion Week for its tenth season, using the occasion to highlight how the brand continues to grow across performance and lifestyle.

One of the highlights was Saucony taking over neighborhood café Cortado in the heart of Le Marais for a three-day residency celebrating the launch of its new ProGrid Ride 1 franchise. Running from June 24–26, the activation folded the brand into one of the city's busiest weeks, turning the local café into a meeting point for editors, creatives, retailers, and the public while extending the conversation beyond its nearby Paris showroom.

The ProGrid Ride 1 was woven throughout the space alongside a series of branded touches, including Rivermark cookies, latte art, daily giveaways, and a scratch-off game offering visitors the chance to win Saucony prizes. Just a short walk away, the brand's showroom at Galerie Eric Dupont remained open throughout the week, while the residency also offered an early glimpse at Saucony's growing presence in Paris ahead of the opening of its Pioneer Hub later this summer.

Together, the projects reinforce the brand's continued focus on connecting performance heritage with contemporary culture as it expands its international footprint.
