Le Labo's Violette 30 is how to get through February

Florals for spring? (Not so) groundbreaking. Florals for winter, though… a whole different story. It’s a light scent that, upon description, might feel slightly counterintuitive in winter, but is actually exactly right for it. When everything feels heavy and dark, you need something green and light on your neck to get through the day without adding to the gloom. One spritz has me holding onto the idea that even the most warm-blooded, tropical among us can make it just a little longer.

Meet Felice Siemons: the artist who paints what she obsesses over (it’s herself)

Vanity and female sexuality still come with a weird moral aftertaste. They often need to be justified, critiqued, or made productive in order to exist. Felice Siemons doesn’t really bother with that. Her work circles obsession, vanity, sexuality, and self-image with a disarming honesty. She paints bodies she knows (including her own), friends she’s still learning, and desires she refuses to tidy up. There’s nothing performatively punk about it — if anything, Felice insists she’s girly, wholesome, and a little embarrassed by how much she thinks about herself. We caught up with the Rotterdam-based painter to talk about being vain without apology, being a misunderstood scorpio, her recent feature in Playboy, and why sometimes the goal isn’t to make a statement, it’s just the natural desire to be seen.

The cake freak that should be on your radar: rustcakes

The cake freak of Berlin, rustcakes, aka artist and baker Hana, creates the vegan sugary sculptures of our wildest dreams (or nightmares?).  From otherworldly chocolate chrome confections to heaps of delicately airbrushed frosting, a rustcake rarely resembles the treats we know from this dimension. As if they popped out of a portal, Hana understands that a cake isn’t just a cake, but the main character of your event - and they should be adorned as such <3.

Glamcult meets Namasenda: the avant-pop star on the rise 

Sometimes, we see an artist and get this distinct sensation that they are about to erupt, and Namasenda is unmistakably one of them. While she’s long been establishing her presence in the pop continuum as an A. G. Cook-affiliated PC Music alum and a collaborator of Oklou and Horsegiirl, her latest single, “Cola,” feels like a decisive step towards a whole new scale. The track remains faithful to Namasenda’s titillating pop-electro DNA, yet pushes it into something denser — her glittering, hyperreal vocals melt into all-consuming guitar lines and weighty low-end production.

Fakemink turns to Burial and Wong Kar-Wai on his latest single

Fakemink continues to stir up commotion in the UK underground, and this week he dropped The Boy Who Cried Terrified EP — with “fml.” slipping out a few hours early, acting something like a not-quite-official lead single. The track leans fully into fakemink’s preferred emotional register: detached, irony-soaked despair.

Prototypes dig into their archive for AW26

For their latest collection, Serie 9.5, Prototypes dig into their archive — retwisting half-fleshed-out sketches, reigniting dormant ideas, rearranging moodboards lost within the chaos of past creative processes. Tying loose ends, if you will. Bubbling from the constant renegotiation of concepts and pre-existing materials, silk scarves are stitched together and fall to the floor as dresses.

COUCOU CHLOE drops “VENOM”

We’ve been COUCOU CHLOE stans for a hot minute, and it’s always compelling to watch how her approach mutates. After pulling us in with the hallucinatory, head-spinning intensity of works like FEVER DREAM, her latest single feels like a much rawer offering, stripped back yet thudding, as if immersing us in a thickening cloud of smoke.

A fantastical bestiary at Schiaparelli Couture

Daniel Roseberry presented us a visually rambunctious, animalistic, awe-inducing collection for couture ss26. Here is agony and ecstasy comingled, terrible and exquisite. The first thing to register was the horns. Or beaks. Or whatever unsettling, animal-adjacent protrusions were erupting straight out of the breasts. Fashion has replaced the tit many times before–Madonna’s cones, Lady Gaga’s fireworks, Katy Perry’s whipped cream (though it feels wrong to bring these up in this couture context)–but nothing quite as majestic, abject or arresting as these avian, demonic…extentions.

Backstage at Ziggy Chen’s AW26 DISSPARATION

Whether your buggy specs are prescription or purely a styling choice (relax – your secret is safe with us), Ziggy Chen's AW26 DISSPARATION is all about that delicious in-between state of keeping it quietly intentional. As models flew and buzzed about in the fashion week rush, we went backstage before everything took flight. For Chen, power is delivered in the details as heads enter playfully funky hats, epaulettes mosey their way onto trousers, and insect-esque spectacles stand slightly slipping down the nose.
