Collagen to pop, archive sales to shop, and plenty of beautiful new collections to peruse.

1. In the fold

Silk Laundry, the Australian brand by designer and former Friday Muse Katie Kolodinski, is hosting its first-ever New Zealand Archives Popup & Sample Sale. Known for its timeless, elevated pieces, the archive sale will be opening on November 27th in Newmarket, daily from 9am to 6pm until December 1st, showcasing a curated selection of designer pieces and limited edition samples. It’s a unique opportunity to shop their iconic styles and exclusive designs at very generous prices. But it’s not just a selling-frenzy; each evening, they’ll be hosting community-focused events, creating a welcoming atmosphere where guests can discover our signature silks in a relaxed setting.

2. Ready to wear

CAMILLA AND MARC’s Resort 25 collection captures the beauty of fleeting moments, drawing inspiration from contemporary German-American photographer Uta Barth’s work and the interplay of light and shadow. Featuring soft pastels, airy fabrics, and tactile textures like Italian corduroy, the designs blend nautical influences with refined tailoring. Highlights include the chequered trench and reimagined Heskin maxi dress. With effortless elegance, Resort 25 invites us to embrace the present, celebrating life’s transience through a timeless, light-infused aesthetic.

4. Sleep on it

Laing presents a new Sleepwear capsule; revisiting their origins with a collection of classics for lounging and sleep.⁠ ⁠Laing was originally launched to provide stylish, elevated sleepwear crafted from premium materials; and ever since, these considerations have led the way in the design process of every piece.⁠ With their latest offering of sleepwear, we see refined separates and harmonious sets make the case for resting in style, while the fabrications of this range get us ready for the warmer nights ahead. Through thoughtful design and luxurious fabrics, Laing’s new sleepwear collection is destined to be cherished and reached for time and time again.⁠
