Keep on top of what matters below with Culted’s Friday Roundup. 

Prada Presents Prada Reporter in Collaboration With Magnum Photos

As part of an exhibition titled Witness to Nature, Prada has teamed up with Magnum Photos to explore the relationship between humanity and nature through the medium of photography. Before travelling to key international cities, the exhibition will open at London’s Selfridges Corner Shop. 

The pop-up store will house 150 images chosen by Magnum Photos to spark an original conversation between Prada and eight acclaimed photographers. Nature and humankind are celebrated through four key themes: “Nature and Metropolis,” “Costumes and Cultures,” “Community and Seclusion,” and “Eternal and Ephemeral.” 

The first pop-up of the Prada Reporter Series will open at the Selfridges Corner Shop in London from 2 October to 11 November, complete with furnishings that relate explicitly to the reportage theme, featuring floor-to-ceiling panels enriched by backlit photo frames. Also complementing the display are mannequins depicted in the process of taking pictures. 

Of course, a selection of Prada garments will feature as part of the exhibition, inspired by the Reportage aesthetic, including a contemporary take on the iconic roaming photographer’s outfit. Plays on camouflage and layering also feature as part of the collection, which uses Prada’s proprietary Re-Nylon material to construct items such as the essential reporter’s multi-pocket vest. This exciting photography-fashion takeover is not one to be missed.

Maeve Drops “Hyperbloom” Music Video 

Maeve has released her self-directed music video for “Hyperbloom,” the newest track from her sophomore EP of the same name. The tune is the focus and title hit for Maeve’s alternative dream pop EP, which combines cinematic and nostalgic elements, delving further into the enigmatic depths of Maeve’s narrative where love blossoms amidst the ruins of a crumbling reality. 

It deals with the feeling of being a young woman who falls in love in the age of social media and the anxieties it can bring, contributing to the EP’s look into finding human connection, and we’re here for it. Watch the video here.

Nancy Releases “No Gods, No Masters” Collection 

Nancy is the IYKYK London label that you need to get familiar with. As part of its latest collection, the brand – founded by Sam Hughes in 2020 – nods to punk, DIY and skate culture. A mixture of vintage and deadstock camouflage cargo pants feature screenprint detailing and there’s a load of graphic tees to sink your teeth into, too. Head to the Nancy webstore to get your hands on the new bits before they’re gone. 

FENDI Serves Chalet-Chic 

FENDI has released a skiwear capsule collection for men and women, perfect for the winter ahead. For the men’s collection, we see a spiced-up multicoloured version of the FENDI Shadow, a logo which disappears into geometric abstraction, blending the nuances of blue, lilac, and powder pink to fade into delicate orange and yellow. Clothing items include a ski suit, anorak and zipped jacket.

For the women’s pieces, FENDI has linked to the FW23 collection for a series of windproof, waterproof and breathable jackets, which are coloured in anthracite grey and bright red. At the same time, classic black and white declinations are printed with the timeless FF logo. Of course, no ski collection would be complete without accessories, so FENDI has created a ski helmet, gloves and mask, all featuring the iconic FF logo. The collection is available to shop now from FENDI and FENDI.com.
