I just saw Louis Vuitton's latest innovation—Silk Tech—and knew I had to share it with you. Introduced during the F/W 2026 menswear show, as part of the collection designed by Pharrell Williams, this new fabric is cutting-edge craftsmanship at its finest.
The twill-woven hybrid of silk and reclaimed nylon (the material weaves the silk and nylon together for a super strong structure) has a silk feel and features water-repellent, anti-fraying, and crease-resistant properties. It's reimagined on iconic silhouettes like the Speedy, Keepall, men's ready-to-wear pieces, and more. Oh, what's also interesting is it can be mistaken for leather.
Keep scrolling for a closer look at bags, ready-to-wear, and accessories from Louis Vuitton's New Silk Tech range. You can check out the full collection at select stores and at louisvuitton.com.

The Y2K era of fashion is long gone, but It girls have been feeling nostalgic. Skin-baring trends that were popular during the early 2000s continue to come back, and this summer is no exception. Maybe in part due to the extreme heat this season, the fashion set has opted to wear one specific top trend from that era and style it in a 2026 way: a low-cut halter top. The most recent celebrity to do so is Anya Taylor-Joy.
While in NYC promoting her new miniseries Lucky, Taylor-Joy stepped out in an all-gray ensemble that included a plissé halter top by Gen Z–approved brand Gimaguas, a pair of pants with a skirt attachment by Paloma Wool, and black strappy heels by Reformation. While a low-cut halter top may be deemed dated, the actress styled it in a perfectly modern and chic way, especially with the single-color palette. A halter top can indeed look cool and effortless.
If you need more convincing that low-cut halter tops are back, keep scrolling to re-create this look and shop the celeb-approved trend.
The summer season has settled into a comfortable rhythm of warm days and bright skies, and our wardrobes are working hard to keep up. Loafers have been replaced with open-toe sandals, thick layers set aside in favour of light linens, and on the days when we want instant polish, dresses are leading the charge. At this point in the season, most of us have had the chance to assess our summer capsules, and personally I've found a few gaps where expensive-looking affordable buys should be. Luckily, a fresh wave of new-in styles have arrived on the high street, and I've scrolled through all of them to handpick the very best. Right now, the standouts all come from Zara, COS and Mango.
Already this season, we've watched Zara offer up a series of instant best-sellers. From the viral frog-fastening shirt to the sell-out polka dot dress, Zara's summer collection is the strongest it's been in years. Even if you missed out on the It buys, there are a series of fresh pieces vying for a chance at cult status right now.
As ever, COS is bringing its innate elegance to summer staples, from expertly cut tailoring to easy cotton shirts. Soft silhouettes and intricate details of pleats and pin-tucking show the brand's attention to detail, and ability to make even affordable styles look like investment purchases. Mango rounds off the trio with attention to cut and form, from sleek balloon trousers to halter-neck dresses with delicate embroidery and crochet work, making its pieces look triple their actual price. As the best high street pieces tend to move fast, I'd recommend scrolling on.
