It’s the weekend, baby!
And in the lead-up to Thanksgiving, a lot went down. Highsnobiety opened a concept store at Zurich Airport, Harry Styles launched his beauty brand, and Jeremy Irons continue to out-dress Lady Gaga during the House of Gucci press tour.
As for your weekly dose of Kanye West news, Ye dropped DONDA deluxe and squashed his beef with Drake.
There were plenty of drops, too: Alife and Timberland unveiled a 7.5-inch boot, Jacquemus and VanMoof made a bike, Samuel Ross gave us a first look at A-COLD-WALL*’s Pre-Fall 2022 collection, and Supreme hype-ified Missoni.
The sneaker gods were also busy. We got Nike’s Valentine’s Day Dunk Low, G-Dragon’s Nike Kwondo 1, and Rick Owens’s most wearable Chuck Taylor yet. Oh, and MJ’s game-worn Air Jordans might fetch $500,000 at auction.
In the metaverse, Givenchy is dropping NFTs, adidas is acting mysterious, and Stefan Cooke is dressing The Sims 4.
Now, if you need us, we’ll be gawking at Drake’s scented candle-filled mansion.
