Stay on top of the style calendar this April with all the fashion news to note for the upcoming season.
From Dior’s thought-provoking documentary to the latest launches we’ll be adding to cart, there’s no shortage of sartorial inspiration this season. But just in case you’re still catching up on last month’s biggest moments, including the near-endless game of designer musical chairs, we’ve got you sorted with all the fashion news to know.
Dior’s Next Narrative
Dior’s latest documentary, HER DIOR – Maria Grazia Chiuri’s Collaborations with Women Artists, directed by Loïc Prigent, explores how Chiuri has championed female artistry since joining the House in 2016. Featuring voices like Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Judy Chicago, and Mickalene Thomas, the film delves into the powerful collaborations that have shaped Dior’s collections under the creative direction of Chiuri – blurring the lines between fashion, activism, and art. Through behind-the-scenes footage and intimate discussions, it captures the essence of the designer’s vision: a celebration of creative sisterhood.
More than just a fashion documentary – it’s a testament to the power of women shaping the industry on their own terms. From feminist statement pieces to exquisite craftsmanship, HER DIOR highlights how art and fashion intersect to tell stories that matter. Streaming on Dior’s YouTube channel now, it’s a must-watch for fashion lovers and feminists alike.
Loewe Heads Home
Loewe’s latest creation, the Madrid bag, is a love letter to the house’s Spanish heritage, seamlessly blending old-world craftsmanship with modern sophistication. Named after the city where Loewe was founded in 1846 – and where its artisans still perfect the art of leatherwork – this voluminous yet soft trapezoid silhouette exudes quiet luxury. Thoughtfully designed for everyday elegance, its pleated sides are cinched with tubular straps, while a luminous gold Pebble clasp and asymmetric zip add an architectural edge.
First unveiled on the Spring/Summer 2025 runway at the Château de Vincennes in Paris, the Madrid has already cemented its status as a future icon, with Taylor Russell fronting its debut campaign. Crafted in exquisitely supple calfskin with a nappa-lined interior, it’s a tactile indulgence as much as a statement piece. Available in three sizes and hues including Black, Dark Burgundy, Olive, and Burnt Red, this is the kind of bag that doesn’t just complete a look – it defines it.
Linden Cook Opens First Store
Linden Cook is bringing its signature handcrafted jewellery to life with the launch of its first bricks-and-mortar store on Gertrude Street, Fitzroy—one of Melbourne’s most storied creative precincts.
More than just a retail space, the boutique offers a rare glimpse into the artistry behind the brand, where customers can watch jewellers at work, book complimentary consultations, and even have bespoke pieces sized on-site. True to Linden Cook’s ethos of craftsmanship and personal connection, the space is a seamless blend of modern elegance and heritage, designed in collaboration with Melbourne artisans.
