The debut collection from Japanese contemporary outdoorwear label SOUTH2 WEST8 and Los Angeles-based creative collective Brain Dead is a trip. Literally. A cross between a human and a lizard, complete with spotted green skin and gills on the side of its face, models the new collaboration in a campaign. And the clothes are almost equally psychedelic.

The secret to the rich indigo hues in UNIQLO’s latest Disney collection lies in the slow craft of a niche Japanese label. BUAISOU is an indigo dyeing master keeping traditional production methods alive. Cultivating raw indigo, fermenting the indigo leaves, carefully dyeing every stretch of fabric… The brand does it all.

Thug Club’s clothing is grungy, graphic, and often artfully distressed. But Thug Club’s sneakers? Well, they’re a completely different animal. The Korean streetwear label, a breakout new brand gaining prominence in recent years, is following up its horn-wielding, beastly Fila sneaker with something similarly animalistic in its debut adidas collaboration. The adidas Superstar, famed for its hard shell-toed front section, has been reimagined by the Thug Club.

Yes, that was a huge piano strapped onto André 3000’s back. And yes, Teyana Taylor’s sharp-shouldered, over-accessorised, rose-themed look was a stunner. As expected, the Met Gala’s red carpet once again delivered a bevy of viral moments. Guided by this year’s “Tailored for You” dress code, a nod to The Costume Institute’s new spring exhibition, "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style", the A-listers arrived in their droves, dressed in custom-made tailoring for the biggest night on the fashion calendar.
