This past weekend, Fashion Quarterly and Audi gathered a dynamic group of women for an exclusive morning of high-energy wellness in celebration of the all-new 2026 Audi Q3 SUV, now turning heads in its sleekest shade yet: Sage Green.
Hosted at Glasshouse in Morningside, the experience brought together the worlds of luxury performance and mindful movement. Guests stepped into a calming space ready for an immersive mat Pilates session designed to awaken the core and energise the body. Every precise movement echoed the power and refinement of the all-new Audi Q3 SUV, creating a workout that demanded and celebrated strength, precision and presence. With attendees dressed in coordinated activewear by Lorna Jane, the entire morning reflected the spirit of our automotive muse — dynamic, confident, and designed to move.
Post-class, guests recharged with Liquid Lightning cold-pressed juices, specialty coffee from The Cartery and nourishing oats from Oat Bros, before taking the chance to get up close with the luxury SUV, admiring its sculpted lines and undeniable presence.
Now, to the car itself: refined, intelligent and effortlessly stylish, the all-new 2026 Audi Q3 SUV is a bold evolution of the premium compact SUV. Combining progressive design with advanced technology, it delivers a driving experience that feels as dynamic as it is intuitive.
From its commanding Singleframe grille and sculpted silhouette to its striking digital lighting signatures, every detail has been carefully considered. Inside, the cabin is a masterclass in modern luxury, blending premium materials with a driver-focused layout and next-generation connectivity. A panoramic digital display, intuitive infotainment system and enhanced driver assistance features work seamlessly together to elevate every journey.
FQ’s favourite feature? The thoughtfully designed interior, where comfort meets innovation. With supportive seating, elevated finishes and smart technology at your fingertips, the all-new Audi Q3 SUV makes every drive feel effortless — whether you’re navigating the city or escaping for the weekend.
To round off the morning, each guest received a curated gift bag that spoke to elevated self-care and high-performance living. Inside: BYRÉ After Dark Coco sachets for the ultimate wind-down ritual, Two Islands Hydrate⁴ Electrolytes to support optimal hydration, an Audi F1 cap, a copy of FQ‘s brand new winter issue, as well as Shiseido’s Future Solution LX Total Regenerating Cream and Sans Activator 7 Body + Hair + Face Oil for the ultimate post-sweat indulgence.
Progressive, refined and effortlessly versatile — much like the all-new Audi Q3 SUV itself — the morning was a celebration of movement, innovation and modern luxury.
