LUAR Invites Us Into a New World

August 04, 2022

The past few years have raised a series of lofty, existential questions. What is time? What is reality? What is mutation? Fear not, because with LUAR’s new digital campaign, not only do we have the answers, but we also have a limited-edition, orange pony hair colorway of the brand’s popular Ana Bag to go along with them.

Making up for lost time is a magic trick we’ve all been trying to pull off as of late, and LUAR is one step ahead of the curve. Burrowing in already-existing realities—installations, images, comments—LUAR opts to build a new world from scratch, rather than wait for ours to keep up. The brand’s new drop comes alongside an illusory video, where through insertions of its products into existing images, it commands attention with fantasy. Is that a Prada collab, in Marfa? Knowing Raul Lopez, it very well could be. I guess we have to wait and see...

The campaign also acts as an announcement of a physical, one day only LUAR pop-up on Tuesday, August 9 at an undisclosed location in New York. Follow along for updates on where it is at LUAR’s Instagram page.

Faces, Fishbones & Soufflés: Schiaparelli SS25

May 01, 2025

Schiaparelli’s Spring–Summer 2025 accessories collection is led by the soft, slouchy Soufflé bag, which has a curved hobo shape and little gold charms that form a face on its handle. It comes in hand-spray-painted suede—turquoise fading into caramel—and in grained leather in sand, yellow, or black.

The line also includes bright red acetate sunglasses with a tiny keyhole detail at each temple, a fine wire necklace shaped like a fish skeleton with a pearl, and zebra-print Facebags decorated with enamel and brass “eyes, nose, and mouth”. Measuring Tape sandals in nude leather embroidered with gold add a playful twist, while sculptural bracelets and ribbon-style earrings echo the collection’s anatomical motifs. Together, these pieces blend art and fashion in a bold, surreal way—exactly what Schiaparelli does best.

Jacquemus x Timberland's "La Bateau"

April 23, 2025

Originally launched in 1978 Timberland’s iconic 3-Eye Lug Boat Shoe—affectionately dubbed “La Bateau” is getting a bold revamp through a new collaboration with French fashion house Jacquemus. Trading out their iconic “construction yellow,” synonymous with their brand and their famous Original Yellow Boot™, for designer Simon Porte Jacquemus’ signature “banana yellow.” Merging rugged New England grit and romantic French Riviera playfulness. The design is effortless, energetic, and just the right amount of unexpected.

Keeping the aspects that have made it a staple for decades, the Timberland & Jacquemus 3-Eye Lug Boat Shoe keeps its premium leather, chunky lug sole, soft lining, cotton laces, but introduces new details like metal lace keepers and squared-off eyelights giving it a more Paris than Portsmouth edge.

The design is stepping far from boat decks and into wardrobes around the world, dropping April 23rd online and select stores.
