But outside of the realm of runways, there are new collections and collaborations dropping as well as new initiatives like Boiler Room’s fundraising for Turkey and Syria. Keep reading your Monday Briefing to not miss out on anything.

MACHINE-A GETS A NAVINDER NANGLA MAKEOVER

Celebrating its 10 year anniversary, the SoHo store has tapped artist Navinder Nangla to tag Machine-A’s store. The “Fassion Is My Pashion” artist’s aesthetic lies in “destruction [as] a form of creation”, and Machine-A gave Nangla full control of the reins. From tagging on the store’s front windows to the marker-penned “10 anyversari” mirrors, Machine-A has received a brand new look.

DSQUARED2 COLLABORATED WITH THE BOB MARLEY FOUNDATION

The iconic Jamaican reggae artist is remembered for many things, but many forget he was a symbol of 70s fashion. For its SS23 collection, the streetwear brand has tapped the Bob Marley Foundation to create a series of graphic clothing featuring Marley’s face and some of his best quotes, like “My home is in my head”. The collection offers an array of t-shirts, tank tops, hoodies and bags. The full collection is available now for purchase in Dsquared2 stores and online.
