Land mild temperatures take us far, but the Autumn-Winter 2023/2024 season is upon us. Brands and designers don’t forget this, ready in boutiques with the new collections. What’s new to keep an eye out for? The new women’s down jacket by Monclerthe first square watch from Swatchthe corsetry collection by Very intimate and much much more.
The new Moncler down jacket: Karakoram
«The mountains are not just snow and cliffs, ridges, streams, lakes, pastures. The mountains are a way of living life. One step in front of the other, silence, time and measure” writes Paolo Cognetti The eight mountains. It is from these altitudes that more than begins 70 years ago the “climb” of the brand Moncler. Born with the idea of dressing mountaineers, the brand continued its journey towards the summit, offering increasingly technical garments with a new aesthetic. Today it pays homage to this journey with the second stage of RE/ICONS project and the reissue of “Karakorum” duvet.
A classic presented for the first time in 1954, still capable of combining past, present and future today.
New from Swatch
A popular saying states: «He who is born round cannot die square». Yet the brand Swatch with the new collection “What If” proves that change is always possible. So it puts aside its iconic curvilinear dial shape and presents four square models, born from revision of a 1982 prototype. The challenge is not only in form, but also in substance. Made in Bioceramics, the models combine ceramic powder with materials of biological origin. Phosphorescent hands, a window with the day-date calendar and four color options complete the range of novelty.
A space encounter
The one between Eastpak and the fashion house Vivienne Westwood. The result is a collection of accessories made up of seven modelsfrom the backpack to the duffle bag, all decorated with “Planets” print (with a special reference to the planet Saturn) from the English fashion house. The collection will also support the charity “Cool Earth”, which fights to protect rainforests, fight global warming, help ecosystems and support the employment of local populations.
New formats
«I loved the idea of transforming this discreet jewel in a powerful expressive piece” says Valérie Messikafounder and artistic director of the jewelery brand of the same name, about the new collection “I Know Move”. Which is in fact an unprecedented interpretation of the famous jewels of the maison with a mobile diamond that they are now bold, in XL format and with a bolder style. This is how an icon of luxury changes its status.
Italian sensuality
Italian charm with the new one corsetry collection signed Very intimate. The lingerie brand highlights style, quality, savoir faire and home-made textures. The choice of a bright color palette illuminates the collection, among the protagonists: yellow, blue and red. Lace, satin inserts and decorations embellish bustiers, bodysuits, bras and kimonos. A collection that is not only “intimate” but also to be shown under jackets and shirts, as new trends dictate.
Couple in jeans

From Autumn-Winter 2023 OVS And Adriano Goldschmied they launch their first collaboration with the aim of enriching, diversifying and innovating the offer of denim garments of the Italian brand.
