» The design director of Studio Act of Kindness could easily pass for a fashion darling -- with his brand of photographs that flaunt a dark and broody kind of good looks. But just as synonymous with his clouded stares and modelesque poses are a backdrop of amazing spaces with stylish furnishings -- many of which are locations he has had a hand in designing. His latest creation where we meet is a welcome illusory; Track17 is a bar made to look like a Euro-riche train bogey, proper sombre in its woodwork and brimming with trinkets of a bygone Victorian era.

» Armani's Spring/Summer collection is all shades of this year's colours. There are soft pastels that run along the lines of Pantone's Rose Quartz and Serenity that tread lightly -- but there are also hot, bold hues of red and blue to really bring out a vibrant summer spirit. Be it the polished Giorgio Armani or the more fashion-concerned Emporio Armani, a lot of embroidery and see-through are the main kicks for this season.

» When you sell glasses that don't use a single screw -- that can be sat on, bent and even left under the sun for hours in awkward angles and not break -- the product clearly speaks for itself. In fact, Berlin-based eyewear company Mykita is so refreshingly free from marketing gloss that their spring summer campaign for 2016 simply uses the founder's friend's daughter, his dog and his dog-sitter as models.

» 'When people say sneakers are comfortable, I just don't find them comfortable at all," says shoemaker Christian Louboutin. "I have delicate feet so I cannot wear rubber soles for a long time, otherwise I suffocate. I need leather soles and yes, plastic is soft, but it's almost like it's intoxicating you. But that's personal."

» To be honest, the whole endless celebration thing going on at EmQuartier was starting to get a little redundant, it's been months since they started and they're still at it. It was almost like a shameless cat that kept coming back from the dead to announce the existence of its nine lives over and over again.

» It's sad that words like organic and recycled are unfortunately immediately associated with ugly and icky. Pair these words up with fashion and the result usually makes everyone want to run away. However, G-Star RAW's Capsule Collection, RAW for the Oceans, does anything but this. In this second collection, the squid mascot returns again, but comes in a lighter take, on denim that is washed-down and distressed.
