IMPRESSION
Summer Nostalgia
The Coach Pre-Fall 2021 collection envisions a sport-meets-vintage look. Captured by photographer Max Farago, the pieces combine materials like denim, floral dresses and handembroidered knitwear in a way that speaks ‘freedom and nostalgia’. The campaign features the debut of the Coach Original Quilties bags made from nappa leather, as well as the signature denim jacquard handbag. coach.com
Shooting Hoops
Louis Vuitton’s collaboration with the National Basketball Association (NBA) is a symbolic unity of two great figures of pop culture. Designed by artistic director Virgil Abloh and Don Crawley, the LVxNBA line is themed around basketball players’ three modes of dress: Travel, game, and press conference. Loose basketball shorts, travel luggage and large chain necklaces—the collection stays true to the culture of NBA with a retro twist. louisvuitton.com
Face the Sun
No Summer look is complete without a chic pair of sunglasses. Jimmy Choo’s two new pairs of shades, SHAY and NOEMI, replicates the retro oversized look, updated with the shiny JC logo by the temples. The frames and lenses come in a range of customizable colors ranging from glitter nude to black and ivory. jimmychoo.com
Conquer the Day
The Day Master Sneaker by Dolce & Gabbana takes its shape from the Power Dressing style of the eighties. The shoe markets itself as a light, casual, and fun Summer staple for both men and women. Made from stretch jersey and rubber with leather details, it takes the popular chunky silhouette and turns it into a canvas for popping graphics. dolcegabbana.com
