BIBBI Launches Vanilla Factory – A Darker, Magnetic Reimagining of Vanilla    images courtesy of BIBBI Stockholm — BIBBI expands its evocative fragrance universe with Vanilla Factory, a composition that transforms vanilla from nostalgic comfort into something more enigmatic — moody, sensual, and spell-like. This is vanilla through BIBBI’s lens: not confectionary sweetness, but tension, heat, and shadow. Where most vanillas lean towards the familiar and sugared, Vanilla Factory burns with feral warmth. The opening sparks alive like a match in the dark — bergamot slices through the air, pink pepper crackles with metallic energy, and nutmeg blooms warm against the skin. It’s an instant of bright anticipation, the quiet before a secret is revealed. As the scent deepens, the atmosphere shifts. Black tea unfurls in dry, tannic tendrils; saffron glows with a bronze, ritualistic warmth; and peony drapes a soft haze over the composition, diffusing the structure beneath like fog on glass. In the drydown, patchouli and papyrus create an earthy, fibrous spine — wood-like and archival — while black amber pools beneath, slow and molten. Only then does the vanilla emerge: roasted, resinous, and magnetic, like pods blackened by heat. It’s vanilla with its voltage intact — mineral, shadowed, and undeniably sensual. Vanilla Factory is now available at COW Parfymeri and via bibbi-parfum.com, offered in 2 ml discovery vials, and 30 ml and 100 ml bottles for those ready to claim the full atmosphere.

BAUM UND PFERDGARTEN: Pre-Spring 2026 — “Twilight on Fifth” images courtesy of Baum und Pferdgarten   Baum und Pferdgarten’s Pre-Spring 2026 collection, Twilight on Fifth, draws inspiration from the dark, urban mystique of the 1990s indie music scene and the timeless sophistication of 1960s Fifth Avenue in New York. Creative Directors Rikke Baumgarten and Helle Hestehave explore the tension between contrasts – the protagonist and the shy girl, two sides of the same soul, united in authenticity yet expressed in different ways. Echoing Holly Golightly’s effortless mix of charm and independence, the collection celebrates the meeting of glamour and grit, where vulnerability becomes strength. The collection carries a sense of midnight nostalgia – a tribute to imperfection over polish, courage over perfection, emotion over restraint. Evening pieces shimmer in dark sequins, while sheer slip dresses with low waists and floral prints add a playful lightness. Material contrasts underscore the theme: transparent organza meets structured denim-on-denim, grey nylon detailed with black sequin stitching, and bold leopard prints interpreted in both soft faux fur and glossy nylon. Throughout, oversized floral motifs bloom across dresses, knits, and accessories – delicate yet powerful statements of femininity. The colour palette shifts between muted pinks, twilight greys, deep blacks, and dark greens – a harmony that creates a timeless yet romantic tone, telling a story of strength, passion, and subtle rebellion. Twilight on Fifth invites the wearer into a world where glamour and rawness coexist, and where individuality becomes the purest form of elegance – a collection deeply rooted in Baum und Pferdgarten’s signature design language, made for women who embrace every side of themselves.

Casall — Breathe the Beat image courtesy of Casall Casall presents Breathe the Beat, an immersive breathwork experience designed to reconnect body and mind for optimal performance. “It all begins with the body. Through breathwork, we recalibrate it, balancing body and mind and setting the stage for your best performance. Intentional breathing deepens your connection to yourself, optimises oxygen flow, and helps you perform under pressure,” says Christina Ericsson, Global Chief Marketing Officer at Casall. The pop-up event introduced a transcendent breathwork class that engaged body, mind, and soul within a sensory soundscape. In this multi-sensory environment, breath becomes an anchor, a rhythmic pulse that grounds awareness and sharpens presence. Guided by the mantra “You only have one,” participants were invited to celebrate the beauty of their bodies and to challenge their limits, awakening deeper awareness and precision in every breath. “Our breathwork techniques strengthen the diaphragm and engage the core, improving stability, posture, and movement efficiency. By connecting body, breath, and mind, we cultivate balance, enhancing not only workouts but overall health, energy, and emotional resilience,” adds Ericsson. For more than four decades, Casall has designed with the body as its muse, translating an intimate understanding of movement, training, and form into garments where quality and function meet aesthetic refinement. During the event, Casall unveiled the new Sub Zero capsule collection, a winter interpretation of the brand’s Bodycentric philosophy. “Braving the Nordic winter requires a unique kind of performance expertise,” says Louise Åkerlund, Head of Design at Casall. “For the first time, we’ve developed a complete layering system for outdoor training. Our Bodycentric approach evolves for colder climates, featuring insulating materials, reflective details, and breathable padding.” The Sub Zero capsule collection is available in Casall Brand Stores, at casall.com, and through selected retailers.

Atelier Cru — Winter 25/26 photography Elvin Odelholm For the Winter 25/26 season, Atelier Cru, designed by Göran Sundberg, unveils a series of images created in collaboration with creative director and photographer Elvin Odelholm, together with stylist and fashion director Rebecca Cohen, hair and makeup artist Tony Lundström, and Nikita from Nisch Management. The imagery explores the notion of the Exocarp — the outermost layer of plants and fruits — as a metaphor for protection, transformation, and the intimate relationship between body and form. The collection itself is built on the idea of layering, inviting the wearer to peel, combine, or rearrange garments to create variations of style and states of undress. Basques can be added to jackets and skirts or worn over coats to create volume and structure, while double coats may be separated into individual layers of twill or ripstop nylon. Materials include silk, nappa leather, nylon taffeta, and wool gabardine, woven together in contrasts of texture and tone. Continuing the Atelier’s signature high/low philosophy, the collection merges subcultural references with refined tailoring, guided by a sustainable objective. Each garment is designed for optimized material use and adaptability, a modular approach to contemporary elegance. Read more at atelier-cru.com
