Drawing from Dior’s history and filtering it through muted tones, refined silhouettes, and meticulous craftsmanship, the collection frames style as a personal, evolving dialogue where each piece enables the wearer to construct their own character.

Find out more on the CHARLES & KEITH website.

The post Dior’s Fall 26 collection and Veuve Clicquot’s return to Chiswick: here’s what you missed in fashion this week appeared first on RUSSH.

Each piece is made from an exquisite tapestry-effect fabric featuring FENDI’s playful new Dots motif — a creative fusion of the iconic FF logo and Art Deco-inspired polka dots. And if you’ve paid close attention to Emily’s outfits in season five so far, you’ll know that polka dots have already proven a favourite pattern in her wardrobe.

The capsule also celebrates FENDI’s ongoing relationship with Emily in Paris, which continues to blossom on screen. In season five, we’ll see our beloved Emily, played by Lily Collins, navigating the streets of Rome with the Baguette bag in tow, from the historic Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana to the flagship Palazzo FENDI store (obviously). The collection mirrors these adventures, translating the show’s signature mix of sophistication and joie de vivre into tangible accessories that you can incorporate into your own wardrobe.

Beyond their on-screen inspiration, the bags are the perfect statement pieces for those looking to channel Emily’s effortlessly chic and adventurous spirit. Whether styled with a classic trench, a bold mini dress, or even casual jeans, these bags add a touch of Parisian flair — or in season five’s case, Roman elegance — to any outfit.

When and where you can buy them

The FENDI x Emily in Paris capsule collection is available now in a limited release. Fashion enthusiasts can find the two Baguette bags and the Peekaboo bag at select FENDI boutiques worldwide, as well as online.

Given the exclusivity of the collection and the iconic status of both the show and the bags, we’d suggest acting fast if you want to secure one of these collectible pieces. And with Emily in Paris season 5 premiering this on Netflix, there’s no better moment to indulge in a piece of the series’ style.

What started as a few exclusive Nahmias jackets has turned into Supreme-era levels of frenzy, fuelled by Timothée Chalamet superfans, resellers, and A24’s carefully curated mystique. But now, you might just be able to snag yourself a piece of the hype, as Golf Wang – the brand founded by one of the film’s stars, Tyler, the Creator – has teamed up with A24 for an apparel collection inspired by the upcoming film.

Here’s how to get your hands on it…

When is it being released?

The full collection drops tomorrow, on Friday 19 December 2025 at 8am Pacific Time (or 3am Saturday AEDT / 2am Saturday AEST for those shopping online in Australia).

Given the demand seen at previous Marty Supreme merch releases, fans should expect popular items and sizes to sell out quickly.

Where can I buy it?

The collection will be available through the Golf Wang app, the Golf Wang webstore, and at all Golf Wang physical locations in Sydney, London, New York and Los Angeles.

A post shared by GOLF WANG (@golfwang)

What’s in the collection?

The capsule pulls from the movie’s 1950s setting, blending retro silhouettes with Golf Wang’s colourful, streetwear-forward aesthetic. Instead of a single hero piece, the collaboration offers a full range of items that expand the film’s visual world beyond pop-up exclusives.

The collection features bowling shirts, camp-collar tops, graphic T-shirts, blousons, and varsity jackets. A standout piece uses a newspaper-style print with Timothée Chalamet’s face repeating beneath a pink Marty Supreme wordmark.

Other highlights include a bold portrait tee, a subtle blouson with a small Marty Supreme patch, a bowling shirt with vintage table-tennis embroidery, and varsity jackets referencing the film’s “Rockwell Ink.”

Why is the Marty Supreme merch so hyped right now?

The hype around Marty Supreme has been building for months. Directed by Josh Safdie and starring Timothée Chalamet, the film has attracted massive attention thanks to its limited merch drops, celebrity wearers (Finneas, Kylie, A$AP Rocky, Tom Brady, Justin and Hayley Bieber) – and resale prices climbing as high as £3,000.

Fans have waited overnight, tracked locations via TikTok and paid a fortuen just for a chance at owning a jacket.

It was only a matter of time, then, before this newly-minted leading lady was snapped up by a luxury fashion House. And given she has rocked several Louis Vuitton looks of late, it’s hardly surprising that today, it was announced that Infiniti is the latest star to join the ranks as an ambassador for the French brand.

In a statement shared to Instagram, The Artistic Director of Women’s Collections, Nicolas Ghesquiere, said, “I have watched Chase’s debut with genuine delight, I find her totally captivating in the roles she plays. Beyond her remarkable talent, she radiates an authenticity that is truly unforgettable.”

Infiniti is in good company with her latest role. The current roster of Louis Vuitton ambassadors reads like a who’s who of young Hollywood, including BLACKPINK’s Lisa, Zendaya, Emma Stone, Hoyeon, and Léa Seydoux. Each of the stars have not only become regular fixtures in the front row of Louis Vuitton’s runway shows, but have stepped in front of the camera for campaigns, and are frequently dressed by the brand on red carpet occasions. Needless to say, with awards season just around the corner, we’re waiting with baited breath to see which looks Louis Vuitton and Infiniti dream up.

As for what this means for Infiniti’s wider fashion trajectory, the partnership feels like a natural extension of her early red carpet instincts — polished, chic and confident. Her affinity for clean lines and sculptural silhouettes has already sparked interest among stylist circles, and aligning with a brand as forward-leaning as Louis Vuitton only cements her position as one of Hollywood’s most closely watched dressers. If her debut year is anything to go by, this is only the beginning of what promises to be a long-running conversation between Infiniti, the red carpet, and the fashion world at large.

Thematically, this year’s concept signals a shift in how fashion is positioned within The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Titled ‘Costume Art’, the theme accompanies the Costume Institute’s landmark exhibition of the same name — one that will place fashion at the physical and philosophical centre of The Met for the first time. Rather than focusing solely on garments, Costume Art turns its attention to the dressed body itself, reframing fashion as a fully fledged artistic practice.

Below, everything we know so far about the 2026 Met Gala.

Who is hosting the 2026 Met Gala?

Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, and Venus Williams will serve as co-chairs for the 2026 Met Gala. Fans will know this will mark the first time in 10 years that Beyoncé has attended the Met Gala, while Kidman and Williams have been more regular fixtures in recent years.

Joining them, Anthony Vaccarello and Zoë Kravtiz will co-chair the 2026 Met Gala Host Committee, with other members including Sabrina Carpenter, Misty Copeland, Paloma Elsesser, and LISA. We’ll see more celebrities added to this list early next year.

What exactly is the 2026 Met Gala theme?

Next year’s Gala will honour the Costume Institute’s forthcoming exhibition ‘Costume Art’, which will inaugurate the new Condé M. Nast Galleries — nearly 12,000 square feet of dedicated space adjacent to The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Great Hall.

Curated by Andrew Bolton, ‘Costume Art’ is a sweeping investigation into “the centrality of the dressed body” across the museum’s 5,000 years of art. Paintings, sculptures, and objects from every curatorial department will be paired with both historical and contemporary garments, demonstrating something that Bolton argues has been true all along: fashion has always been at the centre of the museum.

“What connects every curatorial department and what connects every single gallery in the museum is fashion, or the dressed body,” Bolton says. The exhibition asserts that even the so-called nude body in art is never truly naked — it is always inscribed with cultural meaning.

What about the 2026 Met Gala dress code? And when will it be announced?

The dress code for the 2026 Met Gala has not yet been announced. As always, guests — and their ateliers — will need to wait for Vogue to release the official guidance. But given the nature of the exhibition, we can expect a dress code that encourages guests to grapple with the relationship between the body and the garment, or even challenge the long-held hierarchy between art and fashion. In other words, expect some stellar looks.

Why is this particular Met Gala theme so significant?

In many ways, Costume Art marks a turning point for the Costume Institute. The opening of the Condé M. Nast Galleries signals a monumental shift, in which fashion is no longer a department relegated to the museum’s basement, but is being placed at the heart of The Met.

Bolton describes the exhibition as transformative not only for his department, but for fashion more generally, re-centering the dressed body as an artistic subject. Ultimately, the significance of the 2026 theme lies in this reframing: Costume Art doesn’t elevate fashion by stripping it of the body, but by returning the body to the centre of the conversation. It challenges the long-standing hierarchy that separates fashion from fine art, arguing for an equivalency rooted in lived experience rather than detached aesthetics.

When is the 2026 Met Gala?

As always, the Met Gala will be held on the first Monday in May — in 2026, that falls on May 4. The Costume Art exhibition opens to the public on May 10, 2026, and will run through January 10, 2027.

The post Chloé’s first Australian boutique and the 10th edition of Dior Lady Art: here’s what you missed in fashion this week appeared first on RUSSH.

From a chaotic season of designer musical chairs to nostalgia-fuelled revivals, the industry gave us enough headlines to fill an entire group chat – and yes, we absolutely did fill the RUSSH editor’s group chat with ample discussion on all of these topics.

It was the year heritage Houses reinvented themselves, supermodels got the flowers they’ve long deserved, and the internet collectively lost its mind over everything from bag charms to one very memorable Calvin Klein ad.

So here’s a recap of the biggest and most viral fashion moments that made up 2025.

1. La Watch Party kicks off the first fashion watch parties

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

When Lyas missed out on an invite to Jonathan Anderson’s Dior debut, he took it upon himself to corral fellow fashion lovers into a local Parisian bar for an inaugural fashion watch party. In the wake of its success, La Watch Party was born: a booming event series tracking fashion weeks across major cities and bringing together fashion lovers who couldn’t quite make it into the room where it happpened.

2. Jonathan Anderson debuts at Dior

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Jonathan Anderson’s debut at Dior was arguably the most talked about and anticipated of the year. His tenure at LOEWE was an eight-year tour de force, and his reinvented vision for the French Maison of Dior was nothing short of the talk of the town.

3. The Row’s SS26 hair combs

A post shared by Gentle Hair Dos (@gentlehairdos)

Cracking the Lyst Index’s top five hottest brands this year, The Row’s influence isn’t to be underestimated. It seems like each season their runway spawns one trend or another. And in 2025, it was the year of the hair comb accessory. I mean, who doesn’t have this image pinned to a Pinterest board or an Instagram saved folder right now?

4. Awar Odhiang closing at Mattheu Blazy’s CHANEL

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Awar Odhiang’s powerful CHANEL closing moment at Matthieu Blazy’s debut SS26 runway was the kind of finale that gives you goosebumps even through a screen. The South Sudanese-Canadian model has been living rent-free in our heads ever since.

5. Pierpaolo Piccioli debuts at Balenciaga

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Pierpaolo Piccioli’s Balenciaga debut in Paris blended poetry with edge, marking a striking new chapter for the House. Held in a reconstructed Parisian salon, the designer made clear that this was not a beginning, but a continuation, of Balenciaga’s rich history.

6. Anok Yai finally wins Model of the Year

A post shared by ROCK (@anokyai)

The ever-stylish Anok Yai’s long-overdue Model of the Year win at this year’s British Fashion Awards felt like the universe finally catching up to what we’ve known for ages.

7. Bag charms take over

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Fashion’s most viral new accessory was the Labubu – but bag charms in general have become a mainstay in most brands’ lexicon now. And they’ve since taken over with joyful chaos, turning every tote and top-handle into a tiny museum of personality.

8. Grace Wales Bonner heads to Hermès Menswear

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Bonner’s move to Hermès Menswear felt like the perfect meeting of craft, intellect, and quiet cool. We’ll continue to wait with anticipation for January 2027 when her debut collection at Hermès will arrive.

9. The Chloé Paddington renaissance

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Chloé’s Paddington bag made a triumphant, padlock-jangling return, leading the way for a resurgence of beat-up bag styles like Balenciaga’s Le City and vintage Hermès Birkin bags.

10. Maria Grazia Chiuri final Dior collection

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Maria Grazia Chiuri’s final Dior collection closed her tenure with a thoughtful, beautifully feminine exhale. These final Trompe l’oeil beaded gowns were burnt into our brains for weeks afterward.

11. Demna debuts at Gucci

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Demna’s Gucci debut delivered the unexpected tension and sexiness the House had been needing. And he made his debut not with a runway, but with a short film starring called THE TIGER, directed by Spike Jonze and Halina Reijn, and starring Demi Moore.

12. LOEWE’s sultry first campaign

A post shared by TOM WRIGHT – HAIRDRESSER (@tomwrighthair)

LOEWE’s first sultry campaign arrived with the confidence of a brand fully aware of its own magnetism. And their debut in Paris was just as infected with a jolt of colour, athleticism, and cheeky provocation.

13. Louise Trotter debuts at Bottega Veneta

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Louise Trotter’s Bottega Veneta debut reinforced the House’s love of power dressing – and assembled the FROW of our dreams: Zadie Smith, Michelle Yeoh, Owen Cooper included.

14. Giorigo Armani passes away

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

The passing of Giorgio Armani marked a profound moment of reflection for the fashion world and its enduring icons. The Maison’s September show in Milan was a tribute to the eponymous designer complete with piano tribute by Ludovico Einaudi.

15. Katseye’s GAP Denim ad had us in a chokehold

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

There were a few viral denim ads this year, but Katseye’s GAP Denim ad gripped the internet in all the right ways. Of course, TikTok was voraciously trying to learn the dance to Milkshake by Kelis, but we were just as invested in recreating their matching denim fits.

16. Nina Park went viral for her celebrity makeup looks

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Nina Park’s viral lip combo has become the internet’s latest beauty obsession, and we’re guilty of also trying to recreate it at home (and of saving at least a handful of her celebrity glam shots to our Instagram folders).

17. A Devil Wears sequel was announced (and filmed)

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

It kind of feels like we’ve already seen the new Devil Wears Prada sequel because of how chronically viral their filming in NYC became. Even still, we’re ready to see Andy back as our leading lady in 2026.

18. Michael Ryder debuts at CELINE

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Michael Ryder’s CELINE debut brought a modern sharpness to the brand’s established rock-chic aesthetic. His debut, shown at the Maison’s Parisian headquarters on Rue Vivienne, brought together American preppy classics, Parisian tailoring, and subtle nods to past CELINE eras.

19. Bad Bunny’s Calvin Klein ad. That’s it.

A post shared by Calvin Klein (@calvinklein)

The singers’s Calvin Klein ad caused global distraction levels rarely seen outside televised sports finals. Coincidentally, Bad Bunny will in fact be playing at the biggest televised sport event next year: the Super Bowl.

20. The Met Gala gave us ample opportunity to judge costumes

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

This year’s Met Gala themed ‘generously offered the internet a buffet of looks to lovingly critique.

21. Alex Consani continued to reign social media

A post shared by Alex Consani (@alexconsani)

Alex Consani reigned over social media yet again with unfaltering charm and humour.

22. The rise and rise of the ‘sneakerina’

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

The ‘sneakerina’ trend barged in with pointe-worthy confidence, ushering balletcore into the streets. We truly can’t think of a brand who hasn’t created their own iteration at this point.

23. Duran Lantink headed to Jean Paul Gaultier

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Duran Lantink’s move to Jean Paul Gaultier promised a boldly unconventional future for couture. And his debut at the House brought that promise to life with a polarising first collection in Paris.

24. We had a very brat-chella

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Brat-chella became the neon-green, hyper-pop festival fever dream it was forecasted to be. But the looks pulled by Charli and her gaggle of on-stage surprise guests were what really caught our eye.

25. Glenn Martens takes the reigns at Maison Margiela

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Glenn Martens taking over Maison Margiela signalled an exciting new era of deconstructed theatrics. It did mean the end of Galliano’s era at the House though, so the moment was bittersweet.

26. Anora wins the Oscar and brings back hair tinsel

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Anora’s Oscar win was a win for independent film at major award ceremonies, but what was truly influential in the fashion world was Annie’s use of hair tinsel – a revival we didn’t see coming, but that we’re loving.

27. This particular look worn by Jeremy Strong at the Golden Globes

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Jeremy Strong’s Golden Globes look had the internet debating whether it was genius, chaos, or both. The look was made by the Italian luxury brand Loro Piana (a favourite of Kendall Roy’s too…).

28. Ayo Edebiri channels Julia Roberts (circa 1990) in LOEWE

A post shared by RUSSH Magazine (@russhmagazine)

Edebiri’s LOEWE look from this year’s Golden Globes was a perfect homage that channelled peak 1990 Julia Roberts (in Armani no less) with modern charm. We love the repurposed gold feather headdress from Anderson’s runway that made its way to Edebiri’s fit as a tie.

29. Jane Birkin’s personal Hermès Birkin sells for a record price

A post shared by StylingRoom (@stylingroombyyildizaylin)

Birkin’s personal, eponymous bag – the first ever made by Hermès – went up for auction this year. It sold for a whopping €8.6 million (approximately $10.1 million) at a Sotheby’s auction in Paris in July 2025.
