Our Legacy Spring 2026 Ready-to-Wear Collection
How to mark a milestone? At Our Legacy, Cristopher Nying and team decided to take an introspective rather than retrospective approach to the season. The spring 2026 collection—called B-Sides—marks the Swedish brand's second decade. And it truly feels 20 years young, having retained a scruffy 'just kids' attitude while simultaneously becoming more refined. To build on the music metaphor introduced by the collection's title, OL bridges the analog-digital divide, retaining elements of the cassette tape and the audio file.
It's refreshing, and completely in character, that Nying would shy away from a big anniversary blowout in favor of pouring his energy and love into his passion: developing textiles and making clothes. The tactility of the pieces even seeps into the way they're described: Materials are washed, waxed, dipped, speckled, coarse, soft, worn, oily, glazed, and deep. Just as various are the collection's shades of black, including void, soot, whisker, deep abyss, jet, and more. There is also a wide range of khakis, as well as touches of bordeaux and purple.
On a call, the designer described this season an 'internal process,' very much focused on in-jokes (see the 'Angry Fan Mail' print made from actual correspondence received over the years). The starting point, as ever, is tailoring—sharp and technical, or soft and deconstructed—along with biker and military influences. A couple of the looks reference the first vintage garment Nying bought: 'a pair of Swedish military overalls that we cut off and said, 'This should be the Our Legacy jacket,' but we never really did it until now, which is very funny.'
The men's and women's looks are more in harmony than they've ever been here. A man's uniform jacket is made feminine by shaping, while a small back slit, more commonly used in women's garb, is added to the men's version. Lace appears throughout the collection, including on military-inspired looks, and a large-scale camouflage intarsia reads more punk than hawkish. Also included are new, not nostalgic, takes on some OL hits, such as the tuxedo bomber or the 'Angel of Death' print introduced in the first collection in 2005. Enjoying their debuts are some materials that didn't make the edit the first time around, like an iridescent knit. 'It's something,' Nying said, 'that we've always talked about internally, how something is shifting.'

Chris Brown pleads not guilty to assault charge in UK court over alleged attack
Chris Brown pleads not guilty to assault charge in UK court over alleged attack Show Caption Hide Caption Chris Brown arrested over 2023 incident in London Metropolitan Police arrested Chris Brown in Manchester, England, on May 15 for an incident that took place in London on Feb. 19, 2023. Chris Brown pleaded not guilty on Friday, June 20, to attacking a music producer with a bottle in a London nightclub two years ago. Brown is charged with attempting to inflict grievous bodily harm in what prosecutors said was an "unprovoked attack" with a tequila bottle on Abraham Diaw in a London nightclub in 2023. The 36-year-old appeared at London's Southwark Crown Court, where supporters filled the public gallery ahead of the hearing. The two-time Grammy Award winner, known for hits such as "Loyal," "Run It" and "Under the Influence," was granted bail in May after promising to pay a $6.7 million security fee in order to begin his "Breezy Bowl XX" tour. During the court hearing, Brown spoke only to confirm his name and date of birth and to deny the charge of attempting to inflict grievous bodily harm, telling the court clerk: "Not guilty, ma'am." Chris Brown makes bail, surrenders passport as world tour looms His co-defendant, Omololu Akinlolu, 38, also pleaded not guilty to the charge of attempting to inflict grievous bodily harm. The pair were granted bail until their next court appearance on July 11, when they may be asked to enter a plea to a less serious charge of assault causing actual bodily harm. Brown is also charged with having an offensive weapon, namely a bottle, but was not asked to enter a plea on Friday. Their trial is scheduled to begin on October 26, 2026. Supporters said "We love you, Chris" as Brown left the dock after the brief hearing. The R&B star was arrested at a hotel in Manchester, northern England, last month after returning to Britain for the first time since the incident two years ago.

US singer Chris Brown pleads not guilty to assault charge in UK court
US singer Chris Brown pleaded not guilty on Friday to a charge of attempting to cause grievous bodily harm following an alleged bottle attack at a London nightclub in 2023. Appearing at Southwark Crown Court, the Grammy-winning artist denied accusations that he attempted to unlawfully and maliciously cause grievous bodily harm with intent to Abraham Diaw at Tape nightclub in Mayfair, London, on February 19, 2023. Brown confirmed his name and date of birth before entering his plea, saying: 'Not guilty ma'am' during the hearing at Southwark Crown Court, according to PA Media news agency. His co-defendant, Omololu Akinlolu, a US national who turned 39 on the day of the hearing, denied the same charge. The pair are further charged with assaulting Diaw occasioning him actual bodily harm. Brown also faces one count of having an offensive weapon – a bottle – in a public place. They were not asked to enter pleas on those counts, with a further court hearing set for July 11. Approximately 20 spectators – many reportedly fans of the R&B singer – sat in the public gallery behind the dock for Friday's hearing, according to PA Media. The 36-year-old has continued performing on his international tour while on conditional bail. He took to the stage in Cardiff on Thursday evening, just hours before the court appearance. During a hearing last month, Manchester Magistrates' Court was told that Diaw had been standing at the bar inside Tape nightclub when he was struck several times with a bottle. The alleged attack continued in another part of the venue, where he was reportedly punched and kicked repeatedly. Brown, often called by his nickname Breezy, was arrested at Manchester's Lowry Hotel at 2 a.m. on May 15 this year by detectives from the Metropolitan Police. He was then released from HMP Forest Bank in Salford, Greater Manchester, on May 21. Under the terms of his bail, Brown was required to pay £4 million ($5.4 million) with a further £1 million due in seven days. The sum served as a financial guarantee to secure his return to court and may be forfeited if he breaches any of the conditions of his release. A date for a five- to seven-day trial has been set for October next year.

MSGM Spring 2026 Menswear Collection
Milan isn't just the glossy Quadrilatero or a pit stop for luxury overtourism—at least not in Massimo Giorgetti's world. For him, the city is a living, shifting canvas where art, design, and underground music collide. 'Milan is expanding at the edges,' he says, 'where new creative communities are taking shape.' It's there that Giorgetti is finding new fuel, energized by welcoming these voices into his practice. This season, he scrapped the traditional runway show entirely; instead, his men's collection took over his store, transformed by a bold intervention from Milan-based Fosbury Architecture, who cloaked the space in a Christo-esque wrap that practically erased the retail fixtures. A lo-fi video by Turbo Studio set the tone, but the real star of the presentation was the 24.7 Fastlife Collective, a crew of young acrobatic bikers whose daredevil spirit inspired MSGM's take on men's, and that was also captured in the lookbook's images. 'I like to create collisions and accidents between different artistic languages,' Giorgetti said at a preview. Yet despite the talk of creative crashes, his ethos is anything but reckless. Giorgetti isn't out to shock, his approach is more conciliatory than confrontational. From the 24.7 Fastlife Collective, he drew not rebellion, but raw energy—the speed, the adrenaline, the rush. That vibe replaced logos on mesh tees and sweats with wording like Dopamine, Antidoping, and Endorphins, alongside nods to classic cycling culture; the Tour de France's yellow and the Giro d'Italia's pink jerseys, were reworked into sweats, cotton knits, and oversized shirting. The pieces were hybrid and functional, wired with a high-performance vibe. But Giorgetti, an avid mountain biker, dialed in a personal touch: natural landscapes snapped on his iPhone mid-ride were turned into prints on oversized shirting or knitted waistcoats. Pajama-like tailoring with contrasting piping was crafted from malleable triacetate jersey—the same fabric used for tracksuits—blending comfort with a sporty edge. In an out-of-context dash, Giorgetti turned thick floral Gobelin tapestry into a zip-up bomber with matching shorts, basically, haute upholstery with a BMX pulse. 'It's like wearing your living room armchair,' he joked. After all that high-speed biking adrenaline, a soft-landing crash straight into the couch would definitely be more than welcome.
