This month, we bring you the latest collaborations in the fashion world, from brands exploring new fields to designers adding their input to well-known labels.
Branded Living
A new trend is emerging in the fashion world: luxury brands are partnering with developers to create residences that bear their signature. ETRO Residences Phuket embarks on this journey, showcasing ETRO’s debut residential development in Southeast Asia. Created by Amal Development within the Gardens of Eden enclave and designed by real estate specialists The One Atelier, ETRO Residences Phuket translates the Italian expressive design language into architecture and interiors conceived for coastal, resort-style living. The project reflects a growing shift in branded living towards experience-led environments, inspired by lush, green surroundings. It comprises just eight exclusive residences with interiors that reveal how ETRO’s visual codes of colour, texture and pattern have been reinterpreted for a residential retreat defined by Phuket’s natural rhythms.
Shared Values
The beloved beauty line Weleda partnered with Stella McCartney for the brand’s autumn and winter 2026/2027 show. In the backstage, the make-up artists used Weleda’s Skin Food range to prep and prime the runway models’ skin, creating a natural glow. “Weleda is such a great brand that has always stayed committed to natural, ethical and sustainable values without chasing trends – I really respect that and I love Skin Food. My brand has never wavered from our core principles – we’ve been free from leather, feathers, fur and exotic skins since day one. So, to align with another company that proves integrity can last is truly meaningful,” said designer Stella McCartney. The collaboration highlights the shared mindset of both brands: responsible action, innovative approaches and a clear commitment to sustainability. It also celebrates the Skin Food line’s 100-year history.
Stylish Shades
Gentle Monster, the eyewear company, has captured the dynamic energy of F1 racing with the 2026 Circuit Collection through a global collaboration with Disney X F1. The creations reinterpret the structural language of racing cars through Gentle Monster’s unique perspective, proposing a bold aesthetic that transcends the boundaries of sport and fashion. Featuring three designs inspired by Disney’s Mickey and Friends, the collection channels the spirit of the iconic characters and the thrill of an F1 machine in motion. The collection includes eight styles made with durable yet lightweight materials for enhanced practicality. From statement pieces inspired by front wings and air ducts that visualise the speed of racing cars, to wrap-around structures that pair seamlessly with both activewear and fashion-forward looks.
Magical Jewellery
Swarovski unveils its second collaboration with Ariana Grande. Co-created by the singer and Swarovski Global Creative Director Giovanna Engelbert, the new Ariana Grande X Swarovski Capsule is an ode to nature and its inspiration for self-expression. The 29-piece collection is infused with Ariana’s ethereal spirit and her distinctive personal style, brought to life by Swarovski’s signature savoir-faire. Literal and abstract interpretations of dragonflies and flowers unite in a glittering celebration of nature’s magic. Rainbow-hued stones and delicate crystal pearls embellish jewellery in an array of cuts and mixed-metal settings, while crystal butterflies adorn brooches, hair accessories and figurines. The new campaign, set in the fantasy world of Ariana’s garden, evokes the feeling of pure poetic wonder. Ariana radiates star power and confidence in the bold, joyful visuals.
Fashion Collab
MAX&Co. unveils the latest chapter in its &Co.llaboration series – in which designers and artists are invited to collaborate on limited-edition capsules – with Sami Miró for SS26. The designer is the creative director and founder of the Los Angeles-based brand Sami Miro Vintage. The &Co.llaboration, named Becoming Undone, is inspired by the multifaceted woman inside each of us: entrepreneurial, intelligent, poised, active and social. Sami’s interest in deconstruction is combined with MAX&Co.’s impeccable Italian craftsmanship for this capsule. Inspired by the inner beauty of garments, revealed through the unseen details of creation and refinement, this collection tells the story of today’s renaissance woman through deconstructed tailoring, raw edges, exaggerated silhouettes and exposed seams that fuse utility with femininity. It brings wardrobe staples – blazer, jeans, cotton tees and sweatshirts – elevated with thoughtful details. This collection is a celebration of bold femininity, individuality, and the beauty found within.
