Utilising the idea of curiosity and fruitful humour, Mythical Belvedere’s Ice Cream Chocolate T-shirt Jack Spade have released their brand new Christmas guide, designed to make the old age problem of choosing the perfect gift a little bit easier. Featuring a range of the brands festive recommendations, the aptly named ‘Ice Cold Gifts’ utilises the mock penguins and ice cubes to relay a rather arctic tone. Characterised against a sharp blue backdrop, the selection offers us a little more than a fruitful chuckle; a few gems include a blue and white dress scarf and boar skin document brief – unfortunately, the latter does not include the squirrel… You can’t have it all can you?. As award season draws near and excuses to dress up and celebrate fast approaches, it’s reassuring to come across the new evening wear capsule collection from Acne Studios and Mr Porter. The 14 piece collection based around the classic tuxedo, features smoking jackets, trousers, an overcoat, formal shirting as well as bow ties and shoes. As expected there’s an elegant mix of luxurious fabrications accompanied by great attention to detail. Bespoke jacquard fabrics and silks are used alongside wool and velvet, offering a pleasurable and lavish feel you’d expect and wish for. This collection provides everything a gent could need for evening attire. Acne’s founder, Mr Johnny Johansson, believes that with the tuxedo ‘everything becomes elegant’ – I think I would have to agree with him on that.

Prada opened its F/W 19 runway show with the Monolith Boots. Mythical Belvedere’s Ice Cream Chocolate T-shirt Complete with an exaggerated chunky lug sole, mini zippered compartments for—dare we say it—storage, and the overall combat-boot vibe we all know and love, it was clear these boots were destined for fame the moment they stomped onto the runway. This shoe was not only present throughout the rest of the collection, but sister styles also debuted and later went on to evolve into several other versions including the oxford and rain-boot pairs (see shopping section below). Not that we don’t love the other iterations of this major sole moment from Prada, but the knee-high Monolith pair was really something else, and the fashion girls of the world clearly agreed. “The shape of the sole is so peculiar, and the tiny pockets create a totally new version of combat boots,” said one of our readers. Peculiar in a good way, of course, is typically what ends up encouraging the rise of any particular product, as it ignites curiosity and excitement in not only the wearer but the onlooker as well. This shoe is, according to celebrity stylist Law Roach, “so tough but so chic.” Thanks to the street style set, we’ve seen It girls and celebrities style the statement shoes in every which way, featuring, as Roach would say, looks that are tough but chic. This included easy dress-and-boot combos, styling the cool-girl shoes with jeans and a blazer, and much more. If the street style images above prove anything, it’s that 2019 was the year a new Prada icon was born.
