T is for Tory.
That’s the fashion statement that chic socialite turned fashion mogul Tory Burch gave Manhattan in 2004 with her can’t-live-without-them ballerina flats embellished with her first initial.

LACOSTE x JONATHAN ADLER Collaboration Polo

Each year Lacoste commissions a guest designer to re-imagine its iconic L.12.12 polo shirt as part of the Holiday Collector’s Series. In the past, Lacoste has collaborated with UK design stars Tom Dixon and Michale Young, Brazilian brothers The Campanas, and most recently contemporary Chinese artist Li Xiaofeng. American designer Jonathan Adler was the latest to be invited by Lacoste to conceive a polo along with a packaging project.

A long-time Lacoste fan and a self-proclaimed ‘addicted user’, Adler recalls feeling ‘like a child hearing the ice cream truck coming around’ when approached by Lacoste. Celebrated for his ‘happy chic’ aesthetic, the style extraordinaire brought joy and craft to the collaboration polos by incorporating motifs and iconography with different levels of craft.

We'll be wearing ours with denims or chinos and driving shoes on the weekend, adding a classic Panama hat to relax with the papers in the sun!

 

A fun launch event was held in Paris to roll out the collection, where the special polos were showcased by models who were playing mixed doubles on a tennis court, while the guests practiced Ping Pong (Adler’s favourite sport).

SEE BY CHLOÉ Tiered Silk Dress

Little sisters are often more adventurous than their elders, especially when they've got parents in high places pushing them along. The younger spin-off of iconic French label Chloé, See by Chloé’s aesthetic riffs on that of the main line, especially in its emphasis on fluid lines, soft volumes, and a pretty, feminine bent.

Feminine, relaxed, and with just the right amount of frill, this See by Chloé silk dress evokes a youthful vibrancy but remains figure-friendly with its flared cut. This piece is easy to wear from day to night with a switch of accessories – try metallic accessories and a clean updo.
