Sies Marjan Designer Sander Lak to Launch Menswear Label
Sander Lak, the Central Saint Martins-trained designer behind now-defunct New York label Sies Marjan, will debut a new luxury menswear brand, Sanderlak, at Paris men's fashion week later this month. Lak, who worked at Dries Van Noten in Antwerp before moving to New York, launched Sies Marjan in 2016 with the backing of billionaire investor Howard Marks and his wife, Nancy Marks, who financed the American couture label Ralph Rucci before Rucci's exit in 2014. 'Opportunities like these don't happen anymore,' Lak told The Business of Fashion in 2016. 'It used to happen in the '90s, maybe, but not anymore.' Sanderlak logo. (Sanderlak) Against the odds, Sies Marjan, best known for Lak's poetic use of colour, was picked up by Barneys New York after a buzzy debut attended by Anna Wintour, Natalie Massenet and Stefano Tonchi. In 2018, Lak was awarded the CFDA's Emerging Designer of the Year award. But the 2019 closure of Barneys hit the business hard, as did the pandemic, and Sies Marjan shuttered in June 2020. Lak's new menswear venture, partially funded by angel investors, is targeting a category that's less saturated than women's ready-to-wear and, following the pandemic, saw growth that outpaced the industry overall. But the label is launching at a challenging time for emerging labels amid a sharp downturn in demand for luxury goods. Sanderlak will be presented in Paris through private appointments. The brand, currently based in New York, will consist of two main collections a year.

9 Ways to Embrace Summer's Standout Prints—From Bohemian Florals to Stripes Galore
A bold printed dress is often the whole outfit—and for the spring/summer 2025 season, the runways proved just how many directions that outfit can take. From Dries Van Noten's pastiche-like mix-and-match of artful prints to Miu Miu's playful clash of textures and colors, Toteme's minimalist approach with classic stripes, and Chloé's bohemian ease—there's not just one way to wear a printed dress, and that's exactly the point. Styling a printed dress doesn't necessarily have to mean going all out. With the right pairings, even the most vibrant pattern can feel understated and modern. Vogue's Favorite Printed Dresses: Whether you're dressing for a city stroll, a sunny holiday or a formal wedding, the printed dress can be reimagined endlessly. Try it with casual flip-flops and a knit slung around the waist for off-duty cool; with jelly sandals and a denim jacket for an irreverent twist, or suede flats and a crisp shirt for understated elegance. Whatever your style or setting, the printed dress adapts—and these nine refined outfit ideas below show just how versatile patterns can be. Going Gingham With Flip-Flops and a Lightweight Knit A printed dress can be your easiest everyday piece. Take this cotton halter from Massimo Dutti for example, paired with simple yet chic red and black flip-flops from The Row, a silver shell-shaped ring from Sophie Buhai, and a soft cotton-blend Leset cardigan to wrap around the waist for nonchalant ease. Effortless Daytime Polish With Suede Touches The kind of printed dress you can wear anywhere—Ulla Johnson's paisley style works just as well for city strolls as sunny holiday destination. Pair it with Ancient Greek Sandals's suede flats and Aesther Ekme's half-moon bag to give the look understated elegance and throw on a Flore Flore shirt in the perfect grey color as a casual layer for chilly evenings. Seeing Stripes With a Trending Jelly Flat and Denim Jacket Sometimes, the fun is in the unexpected. Take an understated printed dress like this one from Toteme and give it a playful twist with this season's surprise hit: Chloé's jelly sandals. Pair it with a dark-wash jean jacket from emerging denim label Rùadh and a chic gold necklace from Copenhagen-favorite Lié Studio to strike the ultimate balance of polished and playful. Modern Minimalism With Abstract Stripes and a Chic Statement Pendant For those who usually gravitate toward solids, choose a dress in muted tones and a tonal print like this slip from Australian brand Sir. To keep it simple yet chic, wear it with hand-woven flats from Dear Frances, a silver statement necklace from Juju Vera, and a structured practical bag from Manu Atelier. Runway-Inspired Bohemian With Platform Heels and Oversized Sunglasses Take cues from the SS25 shows and style your printed dress the boho way—think a floral dress like this Mango number and the '70s-inspired shoe of the season, a platform wedge—like these from Massimo Dutti. Lean into the theme with oversized gold-tone sunglasses from Khaite x Oliver Peoples and finish the look with a woven raffia pouch from Cos. The Refined Wedding Guest Look With Strappy Heels and It Bag Wearing a printed dress to a wedding can feel bold—but styled with the right accessories it's suddenly easy to wear. This streamlined silhouette from Dries Van Noten has a subtle but elevated print that you can easily pair with Khaite's strappy heels, the perfect compact yet chic black bag from fashion girl-favorite Savette, and classic Wayfarers from Ray-Ban for the group photos. The Statement Mesh Mini With Fashion-Forward Accessories A printed mesh mini is a bold choice—consider softening the look with Tory Burch's mesh flats featuring sculptural silver hardware. Add in the L.L. Bean x Tibi belted tote bag—a street style hit—and oversized Thistles sunglasses (a Jennifer Lawrence favorite) for a relaxed look that reads equal part directional and carefree. Jean Paul Gaultier x KNWLS mini dress $490 SSENSE Thistles The Atlas sunglasses $290 THISTLES Pretty in Polka Dots With a Trench Coat, Raffia Bag, and Loafers Crafted from a silky-satin blend with a halter neckline, this Dôen dress feels elevated yet relaxed. Dragon Diffusion's woven green bag adds the perfect hint of color, while Reformation's black loafers and Jenni Kayne's timeless trench balance it out with a grounded, classic feel. Destination Dressing With Florals, Feathers and Beads This floral feather-trimmed dress from La DoubleJ sets the tone for holiday nights, styled with flat Mango sandals that keep things easy yet chic. A black beaded mini bag from Zara and glass bead earrings from Completedworks inject a dose of whimsy and personality for a chic vacation look.

This New Porsche 911 Is a Limited-Edition Ode to the Disco Era
Add Porsche to the list of German marques taking time to remember the past this spring. The sports car maker unveiled a new 911 special edition called the Spirit 70 at this year's Shanghai Auto Show. The exclusive build is a celebration of the disco era, right down to the checkered pattern on the interior upholstery. More from Robb Report Dries Van Noten Just Opened a New Boutique in N.Y.C.-Here's a Look Inside Inside an $8 Million Condo on the 29th Floor of New York City's Iconic Woolworth Building An 111-Acre Equestrian Estate in Ireland Is Listed for $9 Million The variant is the handwork of the brand's Exclusive Manufaktur custom division and debuts as one of the most visually distinctive 911s of the 992.2 generation. Designed to embody the essence of the 1970s and early '80s, the convertible is finished in a head-turning coat of Olive Neo green and features an all-black windscreen frame and soft-top roof. It also wears a crest nearly identical to the one on the 911 when it made its debut in 1963, gold badging, and an optional decal package that includes a trio of stripes for the hood and No. 70 racing gumballs for the doors. Rounding things out is a staggered set—20 inches up front, 21 inches in the back—grey Sport Classic 'Fuchs' wheels with gold accents. The interior of the convertible has also been given the retro treatment. The cabin, which features the inverse of the exterior color scheme, may be configured the same way as any other current-gen 911 convertible, but the decoration is entirely unique. That's because Porsche has chosen to use upholstery inserts that feature the brand's beloved checkered Pasha pattern on the seats and door panels, as well as inside the glove compartment. The 911 Spirit 70 is based on the current Carrera GTS Cabriolet, which means it utilizes a hybrid powertrain. The setup pairs a 3.6-liter flat-six boxer engine with an electric motor, which combine to produce 532 hp and 4449 ft lbs of torque. All that power is sent to the rear axle via a seven-speed PDK gearbox and is enough to push the car from zero to 60 mph in 3.1 seconds and to a top speed of 194 mph. Looking to add some nostalgic flair to your car collection? You may want to reach out to Porsche soon about the 911 Spirit 70. The automaker plans to build just 1,500 examples of the special edition worldwide. Pricing for the vehicle will start at $242,250 in the U.S.. .
