It's time for seaside fashion and city strolls. Here are the hottest drops and events this summer
The Hammer Museum presents the first United States institutional survey of figurative painter Noah Davis, highlighting his perceptive blend of realism and dreamlike imagery. The chronological exhibition features over 50 pieces spanning painting, sculpture and works on paper that explore themes of identity, family, architecture and media-driven racism. The retrospective also honors his enduring legacy with the Underground Museum, which he co-founded with his wife and fellow artist Karon Davis, reflecting his commitment to community engagement and accessible art. June 8–Aug. 31. 10899 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles. L.A.-based lifestyle brand Simon Miller's first ever retail store brings a splash of chartreuse and sculptural flair to the Arts District. Designed and curated by creative director Chelsea Hansford, the store channels a tropical, pop-deco aesthetic, with bold, abstract body sculptures created by artist Leonard Urso. As silver sandals and fish-shaped purses sit next to surrealist ceramics by Peter Keil, Simon Miller blurs the line between retail space and gallery. 821 Traction Ave., Los Angeles. Summer romance gets a chic upgrade in Prada's newest collection, where handwoven raffia accessories meet a sunny summer palette. The crocheted bags channel retro beachwear while maintaining a modern structure, ideal for seaside adventures and city strolls. Whether you choose the mini bucket bag or the Aimée bag, each piece blends charming crochet with polished leather and enameled metal accents — because just like any great summer fling, opposites attract. The Orange County Museum of Art presents its 2025 California Biennial: 'Desperate, Scared, But Social,' featuring 12 artists exploring the rich, precocious and often awkward stage of late adolescence through multimedia exhibitions. Huntington Beach-based photographer Deanna Templeton pairs scans of her own teenage diary entries with portraits of young women she's met over the years. Riot Grrrl band Emily's Sassy Lime will have an installation of archival music videos, photographs, zines and more from the 1990s; recent teenage punk band the Linda Lindas, who draw inspiration from Emily's Sassy Lime, will also present their music videos, drawings and props. June 21–Oct. 12. 3333 Avenue of the Arts, Costa Mesa. Hauser & Wirth presents two exciting exhibitions this month at the downtown space. Luchita Hurtado: 'Yo Soy,' celebrates the Venezuelan-born, Los Angeles-based artist's vibrant and abstract self portraits. Hurtado primarily worked on the exhibition's featured pieces while living in Santa Monica in the 1970s, embroiled in the beginnings of the L.A. women's movement that shaped her artistic identity. Using oil paints to create bright, sweeping strokes and cutting canvases apart to sew them together in new ways, Hurtado questioned the abstraction of the phrase 'I am.' Additionally, look for James Jarvaise and Henry Taylor's 'Sometimes a straight line has to be crooked,' which positions Taylor's paintings in dialogue with Jarvaise, his teacher. The installation features over seven decades of work by the two artists, highlighting their parallel energies and color usage. June 29–Oct. 5. 901 E. 3rd St., Los Angeles. Artist Peter Sutherland has described his work as 'a chaotic celebration of life.' Indeed, his solo show 'Cloud Painting' captures the deep beauty in fleeting moments of friction and spontaneity at Dries Van Noten's the Little House gallery. The exhibition features a new body of work Sutherland created from 2024 to 2025, including large-scale abstract paintings, collage that weaves together drawings, photographs, stickers and found images, and sculpture. On view through June 17. 451 N La Cienega Blvd., Los Angeles. In honor of the iconic Intrecciato weave's 50th anniversary, luxury fashion house Bottega Veneta is spotlighting its leather woven bags. The brand has a number of effortless summer staples, whether you're heading to a gallery opening or going on a coastal getaway. Look for the Andiamo — which translates to 'Let's go!' in Italian — a slouchy leather bag with a metallic knot perfect for day-to-evening adventures, or the Cabat, a handwoven, rectangular tote that can fit more than just the essentials. Wellness agency Dive in Well and the Line Hotel L.A. are collaborating for a Day of Wellness, a restorative, community-centered retreat featuring restorative yoga, workshops and nourishment. Led by Dive in Well founder Maryam Ajayi and featuring a roster of community leaders and sustainable brands, the day invites Angelenos to connect and heal. Partial proceeds will go to Altadena Girls and Altadena Boys, with complimentary tickets for those affected by the wildfires. June 8. 3515 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles. Inspired by the idyllic Highgrove Gardens in southwest England, Burberry has teamed up with illustrator Helen Bullock on a vibrant capsule collection. The line brings to life the garden's delicate wildflowers and rippling fountains in playful, painterly prints, featuring blossoming orange poppies and deep purple lily pads. And when the Los Angeles heat sets in this summer, picture yourself wandering through the English countryside instead. Gucci debuts its newly renovated boutique at Beverly Center, blending Milanese elegance with L.A. cool. Inspired by flagship designs in SoHo and Milan's Monte Napoleone, the refreshed space pairs plush maroon seating with brushed steel accents, framing an expanded offering of the house's latest collections. Customers can shop Gucci Valigeria travel pieces and handbags such as the Gucci Softbit and GG Marmont. 8500 Beverly Blvd., Los Angeles. Award-winning composer and jazz saxophonist Kamasi Washington will lead the first public programming at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's new David Geffen Galleries. The sonic experience, titled 'Harmonies of Difference,' will feature Washington conducting over 100 musicians across the 110,000 square feet of gallery space, turning the building into an acoustic instrument. Immerse yourself in the galleries for this once-in-a-lifetime event before their grand opening to the public in April 2026. June 26–28. 5905 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles. Eyewear brand Gentle Monster is transporting everyone's favorite Y2K doll into the future with its newest collection with Bratz.

Immerse yourself in the Gentle Monster x Bratz world, complete with a massive, interactive Bratz doll object and Gentle Monster's ultramodern 2025 Pocket Collection. May 30–June 15. 8552 Melrose Ave., West Hollywood. Loewe Perfumes' newest candle collection is fresh yet gothic, perfect for setting a cinematic mood as summer days turn into long nights. The statuesque candlesticks come in honey yellow and golden bronze, or choose the ribbed, three-wick candle for a more casual look on your coffee table. Let the scent of floral, earthy honey fill your space with a quiet richness — it's giving equal parts garden bloom and antique library. Embody the Mediterranean way of life from the comfort of Los Angeles with Gohar World's newest collection, inspired by Byzantine mosaics, the ports of Marseille, Egyptian fishing villages and spice markets in Istanbul. Whether you're inspired by the dragonfly-shaped pearl and coral necklace or the mother of pearl serving pieces, Gohar World has you covered for jewelry, tableware and linens that will make you feel like you're relaxing along the lush coast of the Mediterranean Sea.

Cannes Film Festival unveils historic first for 2025: A look back at the best posters
ADVERTISEMENT The Cannes Film Festival has already treated us to a promising line-up for this year's 78th edition, and now the festival has released dual images for 2025 – the first time the event has ever had two official posters. The posters use two views from Claude Lelouch's 1966 romantic drama Un homme et une femme ( A Man And A Woman ), depicting an embrace between Anouk Aimée's Anne and Jean-Louis Trintignant's Jean-Louis from two sides. 'Because it is undoubtedly the 7th Art's most famous embrace ('étreinte' in French, the anagram of 'éternité'), because you can't separate a man and a woman who love each other, because you can't separate that Man from that Woman, the Festival de Cannes has chosen for the first time in its history to present a double official poster. A Man and a Woman. Side by side. Back together,' said the festival. The official posters of the 2025 Cannes Film Festival - Les Films 13 - A Man and a Woman, Claude Lelouch (1966) Cannes Film Festival - Graphic design © Hartland Villa The official posters of the 2025 Cannes Film Festival - Les Films 13 - A Man and a Woman, Claude Lelouch (1966) Cannes Film Festival - Graphic design © Hartland Villa A Man And A Woman centered on a young widow and widower who meet by chance at their children's boarding school and whose budding relationship is complicated by the memories of their deceased spouses. It won the Cannes Grand Prix – then the festival's main prize – jointly with The Birds, The Bees And The Italians . It went on to win Golden Globes for Best Foreign-Language Film and Actress in a Drama for Aimée, as well as Oscars for Best Foreign-Language Film and Original Screenplay. 'During times that seem to want to separate, compartmentalize or subjugate, the Festival de Cannes wants to (re)unite; to bring bodies, hearts and souls closer together; to encourage freedom and portray movement in order to perpetuate it; to embody the whirlwind of life to celebrate it, again and again,' said the festival. A sequel, Un homme et une femme: Vingt ans déjà ( A Man And A Woman: 20 Years Later ) was released in 1986, followed by Les plus belles années d'une vie ( The Best Years Of A Life ), released in 2019 – both films also starring Aimée and Trintignant. Trintignant died in 2022, aged 91; Aimée died last year, aged 92. This year's posters are a fitting, tender and rather beautiful tribute, one which got us thinking about the best Cannes posters of the past 20 years. During that time, the festival has either used iconic images from cult movies as the basis for its posters, focused on cinema icons, and on two occasions chosen a snap of a kiss – Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward in Melville Shavelson's A New Kind of Love in 2013, and... well, we won't spoil the other as it features in our favourites below. Here are our picks: 2006 2006 Cannes Film Festival While Wong Kar-wai's In The Mood for Love was only six years old at the time, it was already iconic. The dark but evocative poster, created by Gabriel Guedj from a set photograph by Wing Shya, remains one of the festival's very best. Fittingly, Wong Kar-wai was jury president in 2006. 2008 2008 Cannes Film Festival This poster designed by Pierre Collier, using a photo by David Lynch of a lead performer at Paris' Le Crazy Horse, is another moody (and sexy, let's not deny it) offering by the festival. We thought that Lynch might have been honoured on this year's poster, but who knows? Maybe Cannes is waiting for the 80th edition to pay tribute to the peerless filmmaker we lost earlier this year . 2010 2010 Cannes Film Festival Ever since the 1990s, Cannes has showcased female film icons on its posters. The first was Marlène Dietrich, the face of the 45th edition in 1992, and in 2010 came Juliette Binoche . The poster for the 63rd edition featured the wonderful actress – who happens to be this year's jury president - with a magic lightbrush, no shoes and that disarming smile. The effect is stunning and reminds that without Lumière, there's no cinema. In all senses of the word . 2012 2012 Cannes Film Festival To celebrate the festival's 65th edition, Paris-based agency Bronx created this high-contrast design from an Otto L. Bettmann photo of Marilyn Monroe. Simple and timeless. 2017 2017 Cannes Film Festival Claudia Cardinale became the 70th anniversary edition's poster figure and it's a joyful snap. No one knows who took the photo of Cardinale dancing on a Rome rooftop in 1959, but kudos to Philippe Savoir for adding that splash of red and making it one of the festival's most vibrant images. ADVERTISEMENT 2018 2018 Cannes Film Festival There's that second kiss, courtesy of Jean-Luc Godard's Pierrot le Fou . The hyper-saturated image of Jean-Paul Belmondo and Anna Karina's kiss made the poster feel like it was honouring the past while simultaneously looking to the future. While a warmer counterpart to this year's poster, which feels a wee bit colder due to its colour palette, the same passion and desire to celebrate love (and cinema) is there. 2019 2019 Cannes Film Festival The festival was on a roll in the second half of the 2010s, as the 72nd edition saw Cannes pay a gorgeous tribute to the late and oh so great Agnès Varda, who died that same year. This 1954 photo from the set of her first movie, La Pointe Courte , shows Varda standing on the shoulders of a technician to get the right shot. It says everything: Varda's passion as a then 26-year-old; her mischievousness that made her such a shining light in the world of cinema during her whole career; and her commitment to showing that whatever men could do behind the camera, women could do just as well. If not better. Stellar work from designer Flore Maquin, who was behind our favourite poster of the past 20 years. 2024 2024 Cannes Film Festival After an admittedly excellent 2023 poster featuring Catherine Deneuve, last year's image stands out as a poetic and rather moving nod to Arika Kurosawa's film Rhapsody In August . Mirroring the movie theater, this image celebrates the Seventh Art. There's a sense of wonder, magic and naivety to Hartland Villa's poster that reminds us that cinema should always be a safe space where viewers can be united as a family in a shared dream. If only for a few hours. The 78th Cannes runs from 13 – 24 May. Check out our take on this year's line-up here and our thoughts on the films we're aching to see here . ADVERTISEMENT
