It's the weekend, baby!
After a short break courtesy of the holidays, we're back with your weekly roundup of the most click-worthy style news. Another Fashion Month is upon us, kicking off with the Fall/Winter 2023 menswear shows in Milan. Speaking of Fashion Week, Colm Dillane of KidSuper is set to guest-design Louis Vuitton's next menswear collection, debuting on January 19.
As Team Highsnobiety gets back into the swing of things, brands are also returning to their regularly scheduled programming. There were plenty of drops last week, including a new Jean Paul Gaultier capsule collection, three new colorways of Casablancas' debut Atlantis sneaker, and Loewe's $26,000 pompom jacket.
Things were busy on the collab front, too. Undercover x Dr. Martens, Marni x Carhartt, and SUICOKE x thisneverthat are a few highlights from the world of fashion team-ups. Louis Vuitton continued to promote its second collaboration with artist Yayoi Kusama via pop-ups and installations across the world — by now, you've probably seen the eerie Kusama robot occupying the window of LV's New York City flagship.
In celebrity style moments, Jamie Oliver upped his sneaker game, Addison Rae and Omer Fedi stepped out looking like Yin and Yang, and Margot Robbie got back in her Bottega Veneta bag.
