This month FENDI opened a flagship store in New York City on the corner of 57th street in Manhattan's Fuller Building. Originally designed for art galleries, the building has been reimagined by artistic directors Kim Jones and Silvia Venturini Fendi. Image courtesy of FENDI. The new boutique brings the luxury of Italy to New York. The flagship spans more than 6,900 square feet. Six see-through curtains project images of the Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana, FENDI's headquarters in Rome. The windows are inspired by FENDI signatures, transforming the old into the new.

We may still be at the very start of the fall 2021 season, but its accompanying campaigns are already making waves. And depending on who you ask, that’s for better or for worse. Things got heated when Louis Vuitton revealed that it had sourced the house’s latest faces, Emma Chamberlain and Charli D’Amelio, from YouTube and TikTok.

Classic black and brown will always be the most timeless—and practical—handbag shades, but pristine white bags are on the rise. After arm candy’s 2020 hiatus, A-listers are pulling out all the stops with accessories that command attention. It takes a fearless (and carefree) attitude to carry a white bag. Like wearing light jeans, a Wite-Out-colored purse can have its downfalls: upkeep is tricky and the shelf-life is inevitably shorter (unless you call upon a specialist to repair your cherished goods). But for some, the pros outweigh the cons. White bags can elevate any outfit and offer an eye-catching, contemporary element to looks. Hailey Bieber swears by colorful Bottega Veneta Pouches, but has recently dabbled in the white bag trend. Saint Laurent’s “blanc vintage” Le 5 à...

Coach and Bape are back at it again. The New York brand and Japanese streetwear label are set to release their second collection together, and they have a celeb-filled campaign to help show off the new pieces. Photographed by Sandy Kim, who has recently worked with Skims and The New York Times, the new Coach campaign stars rappers Megan Thee Stallion and Cordae. Japanese model and songwriter Kōki also makes a return, as she was featured in the collaboration’s debut campaign in February 2020. Bape (short for A Bathing Ape) has been around since the early ‘90s, and its coveted star-logo kicks were a hot commodity among sneakerheads back in the early aughts.
