Across the Pond with Conner Ives

September 16, 2026

American designer Conner Ives made his New York Fashion Week debut for Spring/Summer 2027 with a homecoming collection called Across the Pond.

Across the Pond, Conner Ives’ SS27 collection, marked his return to the United States after nearly a decade of showing in London. The collection centred on the theme of “Flamboyance!”, described by Ives as the drama of coming home and the unique pride of being American. It also reflected his complicated relationship with his home country. Key looks included dishevelled, power-lunch-inspired Wall Street suits created in collaboration with Gieves & Hawkes, alongside statement T-shirts featuring the phrase “Bring Back Shame.” The runway featured Lila Moss, Iris Law, and Hari Nef, with Kim Cattrall in the front row.

Topologie x PLEASURES: Redefining Travel

February 06, 2026

Topologie and PLEASURES’ launched a new collection inspired by the everyday realities of travel and airport environments. Drawing inspiration from buzzing machinery, fluorescent lighting, and whirling baggage carousels, the capsule collection transforms familiar transit imagery into functional, graphic-driven carry essentials.

The collaboration focuses on combining functional precision with street rebellion in a way that redefines travel. Built to survive transit chaos and land with attitude intact, the collection reflects a shared interest in creating gear for both the journey and destination.

Taking inspiration from the in-between moments of travel, the designs blend Topologie's signature silhouettes with PLEASURES' daring aesthetic. Alex James, Co-founder of PLEASURES, explains,“This series of bags is inspired by the global citizen who embraces the irony and sport of travel.”
