1. Form in focus
Introducing Jasmin Sparrow’s AW25 collection: FORMA. Drawing from art deco and modernist influences, the Aotearoa brand’s latest collection features bold curves, sculptural silhouettes and its signature interplay of mixed metals. FQ‘s top picks include the Deco Earrings, a reimagined 1920s design with feminine fluidity, and the Dome Collar, a statement necklace designed to be a reflective symbol of renewal and interconnectedness.
2. Elevated essentials
Tāmaki Makaurau footwear brand Bronwyn has unveiled its AW25 Collection 08, a curated edit of flats, heels and boots designed for the modern wardrobe. Fusing statement styling with timeless appeal, the collection features minimalist silhouettes, refined detailing and a versatile, wearable colour palette of effortless neutrals.

3. Tailored Landscapes
The weather might be starting to cool but the second drop of Kowtow’s effortless ‘Landscapes’ collection has arrived just in time to ease the transition into the cooler months. The collection marks an exciting new chapter for the Aotearoa brand under the creative direction of Dayne Johnston, the former menswear designer at Zambesi. Crafted from Fairtrade organic cotton, ‘Landscapes’ blends workwear with refined tailoring, offering versatile silhouettes that play with proportion and texture. Highlights from this latest drop include the Rosa Tee, a crochet knit with floral motifs, the voluminous Eclipse dress in trending polka dots, and the Tide Jumper, with its graphic wave pattern and textured stitch.

Australian jewellery brand Saint Valentine’s latest release, the Dash Dot collection, redefines everyday elegance with a delicate balance of proportion and sparkle. The Dash Dot Chain Necklace and Bracelet feature alternating elongated and round diamond-cut links, designed to catch the light with effortless allure. Crafted from 925 sterling silver with luxe 18k gold plating, both pieces are nickel-free and hypoallergenic for all-day wear.
