Carmel Harrison Invites Us To Tour Her Spiritual Second Home
Carmel Harrison brings an elegant and nomadic spirit into the serene, story-filled interiors of her Palm Jumeirah home There is an immediate, grounding warmth when you enter Carmel Harrison's home. It's in the way sunlight kisses polished concrete floors, how green marble glows against hand-hewn wood, and in the quiet, soulful presence of books and keepsakes from faraway places. As founder and creative force behind the resort wear label Second Summer, Carmel has mastered the art of storytelling – not just in fashion, but in the very spaces she inhabits. Much like her brand, her home is an homage to the places that have shaped her. Chief among them is Ibiza, the Balearic island she calls her 'spiritual second home', and the muse behind Second Summer. 'If I can't live there yet,' she says, 'I'll bring the island to me.' That meant designing a space rooted in contrast and calm – bohemian yet refined, earthy yet elevated. The result is a home that doesn't just reflect her aesthetic, but also embodies her worldview: soulful, sun-warmed and deeply personal. Carmel launched Second Summer as a counter to the fast-paced, trend-chasing fashion industry. Her collections are imbued with a sense of ease and effortlessness, inspired by years of travels to Ibiza, Sri Lanka, South Africa and the Maldives. 'Every capsule is built with intention,' she says. 'They're meant to layer, evolve and live with you – not be replaced.' This philosophy of considered longevity carries over seamlessly into the design of her home. The house, which she shares with her husband and two daughters in Dubai, is not the product of an interior designer's vision but a deeply personal, hands-on project. 'From the statement mirror wall to the light switches, we chose everything ourselves,' she explains. Even the home's focal point – lush slabs of green marble – was selected years before the property was purchased, after a single image saved to Pinterest lingered in her imagination. 'I never let go of the vision.' Texture and tactility reign. Heavy woods, solid travertine and smooth green stone give weight and presence to the space. Cream walls offer a neutral canvas for light and shadow to play, while vintage mirrors and copper accents add softness and reflection. 'I grew up watching my dad work with raw materials – cutting stone, shaping timber – and that honesty in design stayed with me,' Carmel says. 'For me, natural materials carry more than aesthetics – they carry soul.' Furniture, too, follows the rhythm of the family's life. Most of it is bespoke, designed by Carmel and her husband and crafted to echo their daily rituals. There's a sense of quiet craftsmanship in every corner: built-in wardrobes, custom shelving and sculptural tables carved with simplicity and function in mind. Yet the home never feels curated – it feels lived in. Personal artefacts are everywhere: linen placemats from her great-grandmother, Beatrix Potter ornaments passed down by her grandmother and trinkets from beach markets and flea stalls collected across continents. 'I've always been drawn to things with history,' she reflects. 'Pieces you can't find in a store. They carry memory, which makes them feel alive.' Books on design, poetry and photography line the shelves and coffee tables, serving as both inspiration and atmosphere. 'I collect them obsessively. They're part of the way I think, and create. They bring texture to the space in a different way.' Tableware from Dinosaur Designs and Rebecca Udall add artful elegance, while Montroi's home fragrances infuse each room with an evocative, nomadic energy. Textural grounding comes via Jaipur Rugs, while ceramics by Nicola Gillis lend sculptural softness to the shelves and sideboards. Cushions from Maison Sarah Lavoine punctuate the home with subtle hits of colour and Parisian charm. It's no surprise, then, that the house doesn't conform to one design dogma. Carmel's style is fluid, much like her collections. 'I wouldn't call it minimalist or wabi-sabi,' she muses. 'It's more intuitive. I love the tension between glossy and rugged, bold and neutral. It's not about rules – it's about what feels right.' This instinctive layering creates a home that feels both curated and completely natural, where every surface invites touch and every object tells a story. The synergy between her creative practice and her interior world is unmistakable. As Second Summer has evolved, so too has Carmel's approach to space. 'I've become more intentional,' she says. 'I've learned how much design can shape how we feel – how energy, texture and atmosphere impact the everyday.' That sensitivity to space informs both her collections and her home. 'They've grown together. My house is a reflection of where I've been and what I hope to carry forward.' For Carmel, beauty is never just aesthetic – it's emotional. Whether through a dress that remembers a summer romance or a mirror that has followed her across countries and decades, she surrounds herself with objects that mean something. 'People often think a home has to be perfect to be beautiful,' she says. 'But real beauty is in the story. In the layers. In the soul.' And if there's one thing both her brand and her home make clear, it's this: Carmel Harrison doesn't just design for a lifestyle – she lives it. With an editorial sensibility shaped by years in fashion and a traveller's heart guided by instinct, she has created a home that is not merely designed, but deeply felt. It's not Ibiza. But in its quiet textures and sunlit corners, it comes remarkably close.

EXCLUSIVE I make THOUSANDS of dollars a month renting out my clothes to strangers
A woman who makes thousands of dollars per month renting out her clothes to strangers has lifted a lid on the lucrative side gig. Jess Work, 26, a fashion influencer from New York, spent years building up a massive collection of designer clothing pieces. But in late 2023, it dawned on her that many of the expensive items had only been worn by her once or twice, and were sitting untouched in her closet. So she started renting out her outfits on the app called Pickle, and flash forward to less than two years later, she's raked in more than $50,000 from the endeavor. While chatting with about it, Jess explained that she came up with the idea after seeing an ad for Pickle on TikTok 'Pickle is a peer-to-peer fashion rental platform that allows users to rent out or borrow designer and trendy clothing,' she dished. 'Through the app, individuals can list items from their own closets or shop from others', making it a sustainable and affordable way to access high-end fashion. 'Pickle is especially popular among content creators and fashion lovers who want to monetize their wardrobes or find unique pieces for events, shoots, and everyday wear.' She said she makes anywhere from $3,000 to $5,000 a month from the app, and estimates she's brought in at least $50,000 in total since she started near the end of 2023. She added that it's 'pretty manageable,' and only takes about a 'couple hours' out of her week. 'I usually price items based on the retail value, the brand, the season, how new or rare it is, and if it's already listed on the app,' she added. Pickle was founded by Brian McMahon and Julia O'Mara in 2022, and it has reportedly raised $20 million, per Business Insider. 'Rent your next look from the hottest closets in New York City,' reads Pickle's website. 'No subscriptions. Rent on-demand.' 'At Pickle, we envision a world where fashion is sustainable, accessible, and fun,' it continued. 'Our platform connects individuals with shareable closets, offering a dynamic and effortless rental experience akin to borrowing from a friend.' There's over 60,000 items for rent on the website right now, and you have the option to rent the clothing pieces for as little as one day and up to four weeks. 'We offer same-day local delivery through our courier service (think DoorDash, but for clothes!), in-person exchanges with the lender, or nationwide shipping,' it adds. Pickle, which also has a storefront in New York City, takes 20 percent of all transactions done on its app and 35 percent of transactions done in the store. 'Driven by a desire to break free from the endless cycle of fast fashion and embrace sustainability, Pickle was born,' the brand said of its store opening in 2023. 'Our online community has flourished, with tens of thousands joining our movement to redefine fashion consumption. 'Now, we're bringing that same spirit to our physical location, creating a space where style and community converge.' 'I usually price items based on the retail value, the brand, the season, how new or rare it is, and if it's already listed on the app,' she added. This romper costs $70 per week to rent Jess has 229 items available on her Pickle page, including a Meshki Pearl Top for $80 per week (left) and a Sandro Leather Jacket for $70 per week (right) Jess has 229 items available on her Pickle page, including a Meshki Pearl Top for $80 per week and a Sandro Leather Jacket for $70 per week. 'It's a great side hustle, especially if you love fashion or have pieces in your closet you don't wear often,' she gushed. 'If you're on the fence about buying something because of the price, it could do really well on the app - helping you make some money back or feel like it cost less in the end. 'I also recommend the app as a renter - it's perfect for weddings, last-minute trips, or anytime you want something fun without fully committing.'

GUNIA: Ukrainian Tradition Reimagined—Worn By Icons, Loved Worldwide
GUNIA Founders Maria Gavrilyuk and Natalia Kamenska. GUNIA takes it a step further, producing limited-edition clothing, jewelry, and homeware deeply rooted in traditional Ukrainian many luxury brands emphasize craftsmanship, Ukrainian label Founded in Kyiv in 2018 by Maria Gavrilyuk and Natalia Kamenska, GUNIA Project draws on extensive ethnographic research and folk traditions to revive and reinterpret artisanal techniques dating back to the 17th through 19th centuries. The brand has successfully brought nearly a dozen historical crafts back to life, including guta glassmaking, traditional mountain wool production, and complex embroidery methods. GUNIA's collections are as functional as they are artful—designed for modern living but steeped in cultural heritage. Each beautifully handcrafted, thoughtfully designed piece reflects the brand's mission to preserve and modernize disappearing crafts through exceptional design and a deep respect for Ukraine's artisanal history. The idea for GUNIA was born from the founders' shared disillusionment with the fast fashion industry. After meeting over a decade ago, Kamenska left her career in fashion and began volunteering at Kyiv's Ivan Honchar Museum, an institution dedicated to Ukrainian ethnography. Immersed in historical artifacts and traditional garments, she found new creative purpose, which ultimately led to the creation of GUNIA alongside Gavrilyuk. Gavrilyuk and Kamemska explained to me the roots of their brand's name GUNIA: 'We founded the GUNIA Project as a hobby, a pilot project to create a modern interpretation of the traditional Hutsul fur coat, known as the 'gunia'. Using natural sheep's wool and weaving the fabric by hand on traditional looms in the Carpathian Mountains, the coat was a labor of love. This project gave birth to the Gunia Project, and the first joint collection from both designers was a series of beautiful scarves. Our main goal has always been, and continues to be, creating pieces with meaning—not just producing for the sake of production.' The entrepreneurial young designers Gavrilyuk and Kamemska set out to revive forgotten Ukrainian artisanal techniques and creates timeless, handcrafted pieces that blend design innovation with deep ethnographic research. In their quest to create a foreword thinking, innovative fashion and homeware brand that brings Ukrainian cultural traditions into the 21stCentury, they travelled to remote Ukrainian villages, and worked hand-in-hand with local artisans who are often the last bearers of ancestral skills, to bring lost knowledge back to life. GUNIA Founders Maria Gavrilyuk and Natalia Kamenska. GUNIA has become something of a cultural ambassador of Ukraine and the unique contemporary designs which maintain respect for traditional Ukrainian craftsmanship have attracted the attention of an eclectic mix of dignitaries and celebrities, from the late Pope Francis and First Lady of Ukraine to Lily Collins and Kylie Jenner. I asked Gavrilyuk and Kamemska why they think the brand has such a broad appeal? 'We believe the appeal lies in the balance we've found between cultural depth and bold, contemporary design. While our work is rooted in Ukrainian traditions, symbols, and artisanal techniques, what we ultimately create is a modern, visually powerful design pieces speak to current aesthetics—they're creative, refined, and highly curated. The fact that celebrities and cultural figures from such diverse backgrounds choose our work shows that the themes we touch—heritage, identity, craftsmanship—are not only relevant, but desirable globally. These moments happen not because we chase celebrity, but because the product itself stands out. It's proof that design based on deep cultural meaning can be internationally competitive—not despite its roots, but because of them. That's the power of storytelling combined with contemporary creativity.' GUNIA is an eclectic brand encompassing fashion, jewellery and homeware. I ask the duo what their starting point was for the brand categories, and how they preserve traditional Ukrainian artisanal skills through the products. 'For us, the starting point was never a product category—it was a cultural vision. GUNIA is not a fashion brand in the traditional sense. It is a platform for preserving and reinterpreting Ukrainian heritage through contemporary design. We work with artisans who specialize in ancient crafts—embroidery, glassblowing, weaving—and reinterpret those techniques across many forms: garments, ceramics, jewelry, textiles. Our collections reflect the diversity of Ukrainian material culture, so we allow the craft itself to dictate the form, whether it becomes a coat, a goblet, or an earring. By embracing this multidisciplinary approach, we can tell fuller stories—about rituals, beliefs, identity - and show how craft can be a living, modern language. Through GUNIA the duo have revived ancient artisanal Ukrainian techniques including guta glassmaking, wool-making and embroidery. So how many artisans do they work with and how do they discover them? 'We currently work with over 40 artisans across Ukraine. Working with artisans is one of the most complex, rewarding, and meaningful parts of our work. It's not always easy—but it's always inspiring. We search for masters all over Ukraine, from remote mountain villages to family-run studios. For some, this is an artistic practice rooted in tradition. For others, it's a craft passed down through generations. Some are full-time professionals; others engage in it as part of daily rural life. We find them through every possible channel—recommendations from ethnographers, word of mouth, field expeditions, even community notice boards. We met Nataliya Kishchuk, a traditional weaver of Hutsul coats (the original 'gunia'), during an expedition. Others came to us through cultural researchers and friends. Every encounter is its own journey.' While GUNIA's collections revive and sustaining Ukrainian crafts and creativity, they also have a contemporary sensibility. What inspirations, cultural phenomena and art movements inspired them and contributed to the DNA of GUNIA? 'We are passionate admirers of Ukrainian folk art, painting, symbolism, and craft traditions. We deeply respect the visual language of our culture—its motifs, its materials, and its spiritual foundations. At the same time, we both come from a background in contemporary design and fashion, so we understand the relevance of time and the importance of aesthetic clarity. We never wanted to create nostalgic or folkloric reproductions—we wanted to create modern design objects with meaning. Our process is about translating traditional technologies into contemporary forms. We draw inspiration from history and ritual, but also from what is happening now—from art, from politics, from the emotional pulse of our we create stands at the intersection of old and new: a modern object shaped by the breath of tradition, and a cultural story reimagined for today.' Whilst the Ukrainian people endure stress and hardship due to the ongoing war, it seems vital that Ukrainian brands such as GUNIA continue to promote Ukrainian culture and provide an international platform for Ukrainian artistry and creativity. Do Gavrilyuk and Kamemska feel that celebrating and preserving creative and folkloric elements of Ukrainian culture is important, especially during a particularly difficult time of conflict for their country? 'Absolutely. In times of war, culture becomes both a refuge and a form of resistance. For us, creating beauty is not just a creative act—it's a political one. Every embroidered shirt, every handwoven textile, every blown-glass object is a testament to Ukraine's enduring identity and spirit. Through GUNIA, we aim to remind the world that Ukraine is not only a place of tragedy or conflict—it is a place of deep beauty, resilience, and creativity. Preserving and sharing our cultural heritage on the global stage is our way of contributing to that narrative. It is also our way of protecting knowledge. Many of the artisans we work with are still creating while air raid sirens go off. To honor their work is to honor the soul of the country.' Find out more about the GUNIA collection here.

90s Twinning is the latest fashion trend stars can't get enough of -as Kylie Jenner & Maya Jama kick off summer revival
CLEBRITIES are dressing vintage. And we don't mean thrifted clothes from charity shops. 9 9 Not only do they have access to their own wardrobes, but of the archives of famous design houses from years gone by. Why would they want to wear something they already own, when they could delve into some iconic looks of the past that regular folk don't have access to. From red carpets to holiday snaps, the A-listers are taking a sustainable approach to fashion by digging out looks worn by other celebs decades previously. 9 Just last week Kylie Jenner wore a red crystal bikini reportedly costing $10,000 from Chanel that was originally worn by Claudia Schiffer in the 90s on the runway. And at the Golden Globes fans were left stunned as she channelled Elizabeth Hurley in a 1999 Versace chainmail dress. Plus 90s icon Pamela Anderson has lent Millie Bobby Brown clothes from her own wardrobe, from decades gone by this year for her film tour of The Electric State, after Millie wanted to embrace 90s fashion for the promo tour. Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale takes a look at how 90s twinning is the latest trend that these stars can't get enough of. Kylie Jenner twinning Claudia Schiffer 9 Kylie loves a 90s throwback, having worn multiple 90s archive dresses to award ceremonies this year such as the Golden Globes and the BAFTA's, she's taken her love for archival fashion one step further this month - by wearing it to the beach. Whilst on holiday in Turks and Caicos the 27-year-old posed in a red crystal Chanel bikini first seen on the catwalks modelled by Claudia Schiffer in 1995. The bikini now reportedly is worth $10,000. The high res bikini bottoms are spot on trend of the styles of today's modern swimwear, showing how timeless swimwear can be. Maya Jama safety-pinning as good as Elizabeth Hurley Elizabeth Hurley was fairly unknown in 1994 when she stepped out on the arms of her then boyfriend Hugh Grant at the premier of Four Weddings and a Funeral, wearing a £3,000 Versace dress held together by safety pins. Sabrina Carpenter channels Madonna as she wears her vintage dress at MTV VMAs as fans praise the 'iconic' moment That dress alone catapulted her into stardom and is still one of the most iconic dresses of the 90s. So it's no surprise that celebrities would want to copy the look and whilst many have come close to wearing similar styles, Love Island presenter Maya was lucky enough to wear the dress for the MTV EMA's in November last year. And didn't she look sensational in it. Sabrina Carpenter shining bright like 90s Madonna 9 If you want to make a statement on the red carpet then why not look to one of the most famous women of the 90s and recreate one of her most glamorous looks. And that's exactly what Sabrina Carpenter did for the 2024 MTV VMA Awards. The 26-year-old wore a Bob Mackie gown from 1991 that was first designed and worn by Madonna for the Oscars. And the dress has even more of a historical past, with the design being inspired by Marilyn Monroe in the 1953 film Gentleman Prefer Blondes. Talk about an iconic history. The sparkly strapless gown screams Hollywood glamour and shows that that style really does stand the test of time. Millie Bobby Brown mirroring Gwyneth Paltrow 9 Millie Bobby Brown's latest film The Electric State is set in the 90s and the 21-year-old said for the promo tour she wanted to embrace the decade's fashion. And she certainly hit her brief. Not only has she been borrowing clothes from Pamela Anderson. But she's seen here at the Madrid premier for the film wearing a sheer Armani dress first worn by Gwyneth Paltrow in 1998. Gwyneth wore the dress for the premier of Shakespeare in Love that went on to win her an Academy Award. Maybe Millie is hoping the dress will bring her the same accolades. Jenna Ortega getting a Sarah Jessica Parker SATC look 9 Sex In The City was the TV show for fashion inspo in the 90s and Sarah Jessica Parkers character Carrie Bradshaw had a wardrobe many would be envious of. One of her most famous looks was a newspaper dress from Christian Dior worn in the third season of the show. Most recently Jenna Ortega stepped out for the premier of the Hurry Up Tomorrow premier wearing the same look. The Gen Z generation do love throwback fashion, after missing it the first time around so it's no surprise people went wild for the 22-year-old's look. With SJP even saying in an interview that I'm sure she looked great in it. Lupita Nyong'o going for Linda Evangalista catwalk style 9 Award ceremonies are the perfect time for celebrities to do something creative and glamorous with their look, which is what Lupita Nyong'o did at this years Oscars. The 42-year-old wore a custom Chanel gown that took 660 hours to construct and was made of 22,410 embroidered elements. The dress was a reimagination of a Chanel dress from 1991, first worn by supermodel Linda Evangalista on the runway. The dress was a hit, getting Lupita on a lot of peoples best dressed list and showing that dresses as fabulous as this should be worn more than once. All the naff 90s clothing Gen Z thinks is trendy Millennials survived Robbie Williams leaving Take That, the Y2K bug . . . and low-slung waists. Despite slating millennials every chance they get, Gen Z are now busy rifling through second-hand shops and pop culture archives trying to bring back the most disastrous trends. Fabulous ' Fashion Editor, Clemmie Fieldsend, shares the 90s fashion trends she thinks are "naff" but Gen Z think are "cool". "They told us skinny jeans were uncool and, while I agree with them, it's hard to take fashion advice from someone wearing a skirt over jeans and a knit Andi Peters would have worn on kids' TV. Pedal Pushers I was astonished when I saw Topshop pedal pushers stocked on Asos. They were the go-to trew of fashion's most unstylish era – the late Nineties, early Noughties. And now they're back on Emily Ratajkowski and Alexa Chung, and being sold on the high street. Fuddy Fleeces The naffest of all the Nineties fash deemed acceptable right now has to be the fleece – you probably had a knock-off Berghaus one back in the day. In October, customers went wild for F&F at Tesco's North Face dupe, which cost £37 (£283 less than the £320 original) and got seven million TikTok views. Cropper Coat The slightly padded waterproof coat is a hit with celebs at the moment. As far as I can see, this coat is inspired by one of TV's most unlikely fashion muses, Coronation Street character Roy Cropper, who has worn it for the past 30 years on the cobbles. But brands such as Prada and Bottega have seemingly been inspired by Roy's beige jacket."

Leading brands are actively exploring innovative and eco-friendly alternatives to reduce carbon footprints and contribute to a greener future. For example, LVMH aims to significantly cut its carbon emissions by 2026 through extensive R&D in sustainable raw and recycled materials. Moreover, the growing beauty and cosmetic industry in countries such as China, India, Indonesia, and Malaysia is boosting the personal luxury goods market. In 2024, the beauty & perfume segment in the APAC region is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.87%. Consumers are increasingly seeking personalized and customized luxury products that reflect their identities, like Louis Vuitton's hot-stamped or hand-painted handbags.

Sustainable Luxury on the Rise: Brands Respond to Growing Consumer Demand Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor in the personal luxury goods market, The personal luxury goods market is undergoing a powerful shift, as sustainability becomes a central focus for both brands and consumers. With growing awareness around the environmental and ethical impacts of their purchases, today's consumers are seeking luxury products that reflect their values, driving unprecedented demand for sustainable materials and responsible practices. Leading the way are luxury brands that are reimagining their product lines through the lens of sustainability and circular design. Consumers are showing increased interest in luxury goods made from eco-conscious materials like organic cotton, recycled polyester, bamboo, and even regenerated fabrics. Gucci, for example, was a pioneer in adopting ECONYL®, a 100% recycled nylon crafted from fishing nets, textile scraps, and carpet fibers within its ready-to-wear collections. Beyond materials, ethical sourcing and positive social impact are becoming equally important to luxury consumers. In 2023, Prada's Re-Nylon initiative set a benchmark in ethical fashion by converting ocean plastic waste into regenerated nylon, while also pledging 1% of its Re-Nylon revenue to the SEA BEYOND project—an ocean conservation and education initiative. As brands continue to align with circular economy principles and transparency, the personal luxury goods market is expected to experience sustained growth, reshaping the future of fashion through sustainability and innovation. Recent developments In 2025, Hermes launched the Rouge Hermes Silky Lipstick Shine, a luxurious lipstick inspired by the brand's iconic silk scarves. Priced at 63 euro, the lipstick features a refillable design, magnetic closure, and a glossy, hydrating finish. It has quickly become a coveted beauty item, embodying Hermes commitment to craftsmanship and elegance. In 2024, Dolce & Gabbana ventured into pet luxury by introducing Fefe which is a perfume designed specifically for dogs. It is a alcohol-free fragrance certified under the Italian Bureau Veritas Safe Pet Cosmetics specifications.

As per the U.S. Census Bureau, retail e-commerce sales in Q3 2024 reached an estimated $300.1 billion, up 2.6% from the previous quarter, showcasing steady momentum in online the widespread use of smartphones and faster internet, consumers now enjoy easier access to luxury goods through digital platforms. To keep up with shifting consumer behaviors, luxury brands are prioritizing online presence and customer engagement. A notable example is Gucci, which revamped its e-commerce site in 2024 for the first time in over a decade, signaling a renewed focus on digital innovation. Similarly, Dior emerged as the most sought-after luxury brand online in 2023, thanks to its strategic investments in e-commerce, social media, and digital marketing, particularly boosting visibility and sales in key markets like the U.S. and China. Adding to this digital transformation, luxury retailers are integrating cutting-edge technologies such as augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) to elevate the customer experience. Timeless Luxury: Watches & Jewellery Power Expansion Across Global Markets The watches and jewellery segment remains the leading force in the global personal luxury goods market, supported by a strong tradition of craftsmanship and growing consumer interest in luxury timepieces and fine jewellery. The Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is the fastest-growing market, driven by an expanding male customer base and the increasing presence of brand-owned boutiques.
