Louis Vuitton's Resort 2026 Menswear Belongs in the English Countryside
After orchestrating a stylish voyage to Miami for Louis Vuitton'sPre-Fall 2025 menswear collection,Pharrellhas his sights set on a contrasting locale for Resort 2026: England. Galvanized by the Brits and built for the dandy, the collection arrives in two parts: chapter one caters to the dapper gentleman exploring the great outdoors of the English countryside, and chapter two is tailored for the cozy life in the country's rich manors. So, whether you're embarking on an alfresco expedition or sitting down for a finer home-cooked meal, Pharrell's got you covered. The first chapter is led by a Prince of Wales Monogram jacket and waistcoat, styled with wool shorts. 'Dandy tailoring honors British tradition,' the brand wrote of the look. Elsewhere, heritage check coats, canvas field jackets, camouflage-like hooded outerwear, and nylon jacquard blousons make the explorer's uniform especially noble. The second chapter is imbued with an 'atmosphere of coziness,' as Louis Vuitton puts it. Three-piece virgin wool grey suits, mixed Monogram track suits, argyle crewneck cardigans, jacquard wool jackets, and nylon windbreakers lend themselves well to such ambiance, as do silk tops and blousons emblazoned with an LV Emblem heraldry graphic. See Louis Vuitton's Resort 2026 menswear collection in the gallery above.

As steamships and railways ushered in a new age of exploration, he recognised that luggage must be both durable and expressive. With the water-repellent Gris Trianon canvas and a then-radical flat-topped form, he elevated the trunk to an objet d'art. These were not just cases to transport possessions—they carried the aspirations of travellers, artists and aristocrats alike. Each became a passport to enchantment, telling a tale crafted in elegance and imagination.

Zendaya Fronts Louis Vuitton × Murakami's Chapter Three Collection as a Cinematic Riviera Siren
Louis Vuitton unveiled its final Louis Vuitton × Murakami Chapter Three campaign on Friday, featuring new images of House Ambassador Zendaya, photographed by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. Set against sweeping Mediterranean Riviera backdrops, the visuals mark the global launch of the collaboration's final installment on May 22. Chapter Three brings together more than 70 creations — bags, luggage, summer footwear, silk squares, bag charms and even a Cherry‑accented bicycle — all united by Takashi Murakami's instantly recognizable smiling Cherry motif. Executed through advanced multi‑step serigraphy, 3D printing and artisanal applications, the candy‑colored cherries sit on top of a crisp white Monogram canvas and the classic brown Monogram, offering contrasting stages for the motif's lush green stalk and glossy finish. More from WWD EXCLUSIVE: Louis Vuitton Launches Culinary Community of Top Chefs EXCLUSIVE: Pharrell Williams' Joopiter Auction Platform Launches Marketplace Apparel Seen as Major Growth Area for On Holding Classic silhouettes receive signature Cherry treatments: Speedy, Alma and Side Trunk bags gleam with three‑dimensional cherries; Capucines styles feature metallic hanging cherries, concealed Cherry‑shaped zip pulls and playful fasteners. The white‑base Monogram introduces a fresh canvas for the motif, while the brown Monogram reprises its role, punctuated by vibrant new embellishments. For the first time, the Cherry 3D heel appears on two footwear styles: the Cherie raffia mule, trimmed with a Monogram bow and sculptural cherries, and the Lily cherry‑embroidered denim shoe. Other reopened favorites include Monogram‑denim Romy ballerinas, Maya platform sandals and Cherry‑embroidered white sneakers, mules and Bom Dia sandals. Silk squares adorned with delicate Cherry clusters offer versatility, while bag charms, keychains and sticker sheets extend the motif's playful reach. Once again styled by Law Roach with hair by Ursula Stephen and makeup by Ernesto Casillas, Zendaya's towering presence among oversized Cherry installations conveys the collection's playful, celebratory tone. Chapter Three concludes the re‑edition journey that first relaunched Murakami's Superflat multicolour Monogram in early 2025, reinforcing the original 2003 collaboration's lasting resonance in contemporary fashion. Available worldwide on May 22, Louis Vuitton × Murakami Chapter Three merges haute‑art fantasy with the House's artisanal savoir‑faire, offering a summery finale that honors two decades of creative partnership.

Louis Vuitton and Takashi Murakami rekindle their magic with a cherry-studded collection
The Louis Vuitton x Takashi Murakami's collaboration is one of the most iconic marriage of fashion and art in history. Two decades after Takashi Murakami first reimagined the iconic monogram with his rainbow-infused, pop-art flair, the collaboration remains as irresistible as ever. Marking 20 years since their groundbreaking 2003 debut, the third anniversary drop has arrived—and it's a deliciously cherry-studded affair, starring house ambassador and muse Zendaya. Dubbed Chapter Three, the latest capsule revives one of Murakami's most playful motifs: the grinning, candy-hued cherries. Following this year's rainbow monogram and sakura revivals, the collection breathes new life into the maison's classics – Speedy, Alma, and Side Trunk, now reworked in glossy white Monogram canvas with 3D-printed cherry embellishments. For collectors, the Capucines range is the real treasure, hiding metallic cherry charms and subtle icons in zips and fastenings, details only the most eagle-eyed fans will spot. A denim capsule, featuring embroidered cherries on the Pochette Accessoires and Keepall 45, adds a playful twist, while whimsical extras like a fan and foldable deck chair lean into Murakami's signature irreverence. Accessories dial up the fun: raffia mules with cherry-shaped heels, embroidered sneakers, and silk scarves that double as wearable art complete the fantasy. It's a masterclass in high fashion meets high-spirited nostalgia. After a pre-launch online on today May 16, the collection lands in stores on May 22. Discover the Louis Vuitton x Takashi Murakami Chapter Three collection here: This cherry-studded drop follows Murakami's earlier 2024 revivals – February's vibrant rainbow monogram comeback and April's dreamy sakura reissue – proving the designer-artist duo still knows how to make collectors swoon. Each iteration builds on their 20-year alchemy of subverting luxury codes with Murakami's irreverent pop-art flair, transforming LV's heritage pieces into wearable joy. – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram Images & Feature Image: Instagram and X

Monogram Technologies Inc (MGRM) Q1 2025 Earnings Call Highlights: FDA Clearance and Strategic ...
Release Date: May 14, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Monogram Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:MGRM) received FDA clearance for their embossed total TKA system, marking a significant milestone in the company's history. The company has a strong balance sheet with $13.3 million in cash and no traditional debt, providing financial stability. Monogram Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:MGRM) has reduced its monthly cash burn rate from $1.1-$1.2 million to $0.8 million, reflecting improved cost management. The company is set to initiate a groundbreaking multi-center clinical trial in India for autonomous saw-based robotic total knee surgeries. Monogram Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:MGRM) is actively showcasing its system to key opinion leaders and preparing for additional placements, indicating strong future growth potential. The company anticipates a slow and methodical initial rollout, which may delay immediate commercial traction. Monogram Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:MGRM) faces significant competition from established players like Stryker, which holds a dominant market share. The company requires additional capital to accelerate growth, indicating potential future funding needs. There are still technical and regulatory hurdles to overcome in both the US and India, which could impact timelines. The company's commercial success is heavily dependent on surgeon adoption and the ability to demonstrate the system's value proposition in real-world settings. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 9 Warning Signs with NSFDF. Q: Can you provide more detail on the timelines for technical and regulatory hurdles in the US and India? A: Unidentified_3: We expect to perform live patient surgeries in India within 90 business days, and the clinical trial system is on its way to India. In the US, our first placement is underway, and we anticipate it will be a reality in the operating room by Q3 2025. Q: How does Monogram plan to differentiate itself from Stryker's Mako system, particularly in terms of surgeon adoption? A: Unidentified_3: We aim to be competitive with Mako by focusing on accuracy, safety, and efficiency. Our system is designed to minimize surgeon fatigue and improve tensioning. We also have an AI-based preoperative pipeline for landmark identification, which we believe will be a small advantage over Mako. Q: What feedback have you received from key opinion leaders (KOLs) regarding the Monogram system? A: Unidentified_3: Initially, feedback was that the system was interesting but slow. Over time, we've improved speed and accuracy, and now surgeons are impressed with our progress. Surgeons familiar with Mako find our workflow intuitive. Q: Can you provide more details on the system enhancements being made? A: Unidentified_3: Since our FDA submission in July, we've made significant enhancements to the feed rate, end effector, blade, and software. These improvements allow for faster cutting, and we are conducting internal testing to ensure safety and performance. Q: How do you plan to manage the balance between a controlled rollout and the need for commercial traction and revenue growth? A: Unidentified_3: Our growth trajectory depends on capital access and strategic direction. We focus on high utilization of placed robots and aim to convert 100% of a surgeon's business to our system. We prioritize quality service and support for surgeons.
