As Gen Z ushers in the return of wired headphones, Chanel creates a new take on a timepiece that doubles as a necklace, headphones, or a bracelet.
STRIKING A CORD

BACK TO SCHOOL

For Wales Bonner's fall 2024 collection, designer Grace Wales Bonner collaborated with Howard University's Moorland-Springarn Research Center to create clothes that channel 1990s collegiate life. Varsity sportswear influences come through in leather aviator jackets, while utility pockets also echo the era. Sweater, $1,234, trousers, $912, earrings, $681, slingbacks, Wales Bonner, walesbonner.​com.

SOMETHING BLUE

Van Cleef & Arpels assembles every piece in its Alhambra collection by hand. Now the house is incorporating blue agate, first introduced in the line in 1989, into two new creations: the Vintage Alhambra reversible ring and the signature Sweet Alhambra Watch (shown here). The ring made its debut in 2023, and the new colorway serves as only the second iteration of the piece. Created in a 15-step process, the watch is set by hand with golden beads before its rounded prongs are folded down. In both designs, the clean sky blue is paired with Van Cleef & Arpels's classic yellow gold guilloche. Watch, Van Cleef & Arpels, 877-VAN-CLEEF.
