Style Edit: Burberry marks 170 years with London, New York, Seoul and Shanghai campaign

A Burberry coat has always promised more than protection from the elements. It carries the practical qualities of British all-weather dressing, of course, but also a certain style: think of a collar turned up against the rain or that signature checked lining caught in motion.

Is it fashion or is it art? Hong Kong’s Vann Jewellery falls somewhere between the two

While clout and trendiness may be the currency of contemporary fashion, Hong Kong costume designer-turned-jewellery artist Vann Kwok chooses to prioritise artistic narrative over social capital or seasonal hype. Kwok founded Vann Jewellery in 2019 “to create something cool and fashionable, but now, I’m a middle-aged woman”, she quips. “Being cool isn’t essential to me any more; it’s not something I feel compelled to achieve. “If people find my work cool, thank you – but it’s really a platform...
