Marking Malone Soulier’s first venture into the most indispensable of accessories, the collection features 4 key styles that embrace the brand’s love of traditional craft as well as innovative design.

“Shoes and bags are inseparable in our collective fashion imagination.” Speaking of the inaugural launch, founder and Creative Director Mary Alice Malone says: “The name Malone Souliers has become synonymous with elevated footwear, and so handbags were always going to be close behind. This collection was an opportunity to apply our meticulous manufacturing techniques and keenly refined aesthetic to a new area; to push ourselves into uncharted territory, and to approach the task with excitement and optimism.”

Fiorucci Pre-Spring 23 Collection

Established in 1967 by Elio Fiorucci, the iconic Italian fashion brand Fiorucci re-launched in 2017 and caused a fashion-world frenzy as it turned the universe back into sparkling technicolor.

Jekeun x Depop for Men’s Mental Health

London-based designer Jekeun will drop a capsule collection of one-off, up-cycled pieces via the brand’s dedicated Depop store (@Jekeun) on November 18, with an aim to raise awareness of men’s mental healths issues.

“The initial idea for this project came from noticing men wearing sports gear underneath a suit. I saw many men extremely tired and putting on a guise to be serious in their field at work. But after work, they transform into a 10 year old boy and run to pitches, to sit in front of the Xbox at their mate’s flat or the pub with excitement.” Having had his own personal struggles around identity and expression, designer Jekeun Cho says: “As our brand identity started from personal vulnerability and leads to everyone, we wanted to share our story and discuss people’s difficulties through fashion. Speaking out and sharing is the best way to ride out a storm and fashion is one of the best tools we can use to communicate this.”
