Summer Sparkle: The Jewellery Collections On Our Radar
There's no denying it. Jewellery just looks better against sun-kissed skin, tousled beach hair, and the soft waft of warm air caressing haute metals. A touch of gold, a sprinkle of diamond, a flash of ruby to set it all off. With summer comes a season of moments—weddings, alfresco dinners, or simply sitting outside, musing on the wonder of it all. Naturally, we want you to look the part, so we've gathered the most exciting jewellery launches and collections to dazzle your nights and add some sheen to your days. Summer doesn't last forever. Let's make sure we light it up. Aligned and adorned, all chakra's in place With wedding season officially among us, the stars align so to speak, as Noor Fares also enters her wedding era. Naturally, she's brought the chakras along for the ride. Anahata , named after the heart chakra, is an 11-piece collection of engagement rings and eternity bands that exude serenity. 'I launched the Anahata rings to coincide with my own 10th wedding anniversary,' Fares shares, adding a personal touch to the cosmic collection. True to her signature style, the designs feature eye emblems, moon eclipses and rainbow sapphires, weaving sacred geometry into wedding bands that are both symbolic and breathtaking. Each stone is sustainably sourced and spiritually charged, with diamonds at the forefront, representing love, clarity and strength. 'The special touches of my wedding day inspired me to create this collection. I wanted to transform those intimate details into timeless pieces that can be worn every day.' Now, who wouldn't want a little of that magic woven into their own nuptials? Ajna Rainbow Band AED 13,823 Nirvana Rainbow Band AED 18,850 Spiral i nto control Diamonds have long shed their formality. But leave it to Delfina Delettrez to twist them into a lateral conversation with nature. Curlicues, coils, snails, and seashells — the Loop collection takes a turn for the spectacular. 'I like to imagine the woman wearing these pieces feeling deeply feminine, wrapped in soft, fluid forms that embrace her with grace,' explains Delettrez from her studio in Rome. Known for her surrealist approach to jewellery and a boutique that doubles as a cabinet of curiosities, Delfina Delettrez revisits classic pieces—diamond-studded tennis bracelets and drop earrings—deconstructs them and reintroduces them as spiraling, supple creations. In the Loop collection, a heroic necklace hugs the collarbone in an astral constellation of diamonds, while cocktail rings curl inward in a glittering vortex. Earrings are looped around themselves, now unfurling with gold as part of a new formation. 'It's a delicate balance between softness and statement, between subtle beauty and magnetic presence…In every motion, the wearer becomes the source of a luminous, ever-shifting aura' she adds. Part organic, part otherworldly, Delfina's Loop curios are, quite literally, out of this world. Imagine them thrown on casually with jeans and a white tee, or as the centrepiece of an evening gown. Either way, divine. Loop Necklace AED 261,796 Luck in numbers Chanel loyalists are in for a quiet thrill. Number 5 — Chanel's forever muse. Her lucky number, the name of the perfume, the timing of the shows, and the secret locked in the 2.55 clasp. Now, that iconic numeral lends its graphic weight to a new fine jewellery collection. Not a throwback. Not a tribute. Just Chanel doing what it does best: making the familiar feel entirely new.

Sofia Richie Grainge's Holiday Wardrobe Centers Some Key Summer Accessories
As the long-hailed queen of quiet luxury, Sofia Richie Grainge knows her way around a key accessory to elevate any minimal look. Last week, we saw Richie Grainge bring her considered style sensibilities to Monaco for a friend's wedding, modeling the perfect black tie wedding attire. She opted for an azure silk georgette Schiaparelli dress in a brilliant blue, fastened with a gold clasp at the neck and accessorised to boot: Gold embellished black sandals, opulent chunky earrings, a gold Tiffany & Co. bone cuff by Elsa Peretti, and to finish, a petite Hermès Kelly Cut bag. And as it turns out, Richie Grainge and her husband Elliot Grainge have extended their stay in the South of France, spending quality time with their family at Eden Roc Hotel, a luxury hotel in Cap d'Antibes. As you can expect, Sofia Richie Grainge kept it casual but refined: She wore a red swimsuit with a scoop neck and white piping, with comfy pull-on navy trousers. For accessories, she wore The Row's red and black sandals—the summer shoe of the moment for every it-girl in the know—as well as black oval sunglasses, Tiffany gold bracelets, and a chunky watch. The key piece, though, was her black and white geometric bandana—an easy adornment that acts as a chic sun protectant. It's also so very holiday à la français , recalling the likes of Audrey Hepburn, Brigitte Bardot, or Jane Birkin's summering attire. With summer not yet in full swing, we can surely expect a few months of more delightful, easy replicable details from Richie Grainge—whether summering in the South of France ourselves or otherwise.

The Creative Space: The Free Fashion School Redefining Possibility in Lebanon
Premiered at London's Shubbak Festival, this 16-minute documentary by Pia Brynteson and Ramzi Hibri offers an intimate look into Creative Space Beirut—a tuition-free fashion school empowering Lebanon's next generation of designers amidst national adversity. Last week, The Creative Space premiered at London's Shubbak Festival, marking the culmination of a three-year journey for co-directors Pia Brynteson and Ramzi Hibri. The 16-minute documentary spotlights Creative Space Beirut (CSB), a free fashion school founded in 2011 amid Lebanon's overlapping crises – political, economic, and structural. Yet the film is intimate and vivid – a portrait of creativity as a lifeline. Brynteson began the project while studying fashion journalism at Central Saint Martins. Disillusioned by the industry's sameness, she was drawn to stories with deeper cultural and emotional weight. Discovering CSB online and speaking with co-founder Sarah Hermez proved transformative. "It was the most inspiring concept I'd ever seen," she said. "A free fashion school in Lebanon – creating opportunity through design. I was completely taken aback." The film follows several students, including Mostafa, who travelled to London for the premiere – his first time leaving Beirut. 'When I stood in front of an audience in a country that wasn't mine and shared my story, the reactions I received gave me more strength to keep going,' he said. While Brynteson approached the story from the outside, Hibri brought lived experience. A Lebanese filmmaker and longtime supporter of the school, he was less than 100 metres from the port explosion in 2020. In the aftermath, he worked at CSB. 'I just wanted to do something,' he said. 'I worked there on a negligible salary for two years. I did nothing else.'
