Here’s How to Unlock a Secret Daft Punk Helmet In “Pokémon Scarlet and Violet”
While most of the world is out chasing Pikachu and other creatures in the Pokédex, electronic music fans should have their eyes on a different prize. Last weekend, the gaming world celebrated the launch of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, the ninth generation of the iconic Pokémon game series. There are over 400 monsters to collect and battle, but perhaps the most unique haul comes in the form of a secretive clothing item from the Daft Punk universe. Players can equip their trainer with a robot helmet similar to the one worn by Daft Punk’s Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, and unlocking it is actually quite simple. All players have to do to access the gilded headwear is find the store in the city of Cascarrafa and spend 4,000 credits. Check out some screenshots of the ̶...

David Altmejd Contemplates the Trickster Archetype at White Cube
David Altmejd’s latest exhibition is centered around the Jungian archetype of the trickster. On view at White Cube in London, the Canadian sculptor invites visitors to a brooding hare that sits ominously in a yogic pose with ears outstretched to the confines of the space. The show’s inspiration comes from Carl Jung’s theory of the collective unconscious, where the Swiss psychiatrist examined the universal themes present in virtually every creation story across art, literature and religion. Amongst the various archetypes, the trickster has shown to resurface throughout history — from Loki, the gender-switching trickster native in Norse mythology; Eshu, the contradictory Yoruban character who navigates heaven and hell. Similarly, to the aboriginal peoples of Canada, known as the First Nation...

I’ve Assembled the Perfect London Capsule Wardrobe With Just 12 Pieces
When the term, ‘capsule wardrobe’ first entered our collective consciousness, it seemed like a radical idea. Along with the suggestion of a considered, streamlined wardrobe came the implication that we should overhaul our shopping habits. When I first heard about it, as a newly-salaried graduate with money to spend on clothes for the first time in my life, I quickly disregarded the idea. But in 2022, my attitude to shopping has completely changed and I’ve naturally gravitated to a more capsule-like wardrobe. I’m definitely not alone in adopting a more thoughtful approach; many of the influencers and celebrities whose style I admire lean toward classic, versatile pieces that are easy to mix and match. Between the environmental impact of fashion and the short-li...
Kate Middleton Paid Tribute to Diana Last Night in the Most Adorable Way
Kate Middleton went to plenty of official state dinners at Buckingham Palace as the Duchess of Cambridge, but yesterday marked her first as Princess of Wales. And she certainly rose to the occasion. This particular banquet was for President Cyril Ramaphosa of South Africa, and Middleton was a sight to behold in a white, cape-style dress by Jenny Packham (a favourite designer of hers for formal occasions), complete with pretty embellishment on the shoulders and neckline. The eye-catching sparkle didn’t stop there, as Middleton, who is said to have received much of Queen Elizabeth’s jewellery upon her passing, paired the dress with the pearl-adorned Queen Mary’s Lover’s Knot tiara and dangling pearl earrings, both of which once belon...
26 Timeless Investment Buys You’ll Never Regret Buying During Black Friday
Anyone who works in fashion will tell you that a huge (and joyful) part of the job is giving shopping advice, whether that’s where to find the cosiest knitwear, the crème de la crème of coats or this season’s most wanted item. I often find myself dishing out shopping advice over dinner with friends, at family reunions or sometimes even to ladies I meet on the bus. Often, people will expect me to tell them the hot product of the moment (the trend du jour, if you will), but my advice is always the same: Invest in your capsule wardrobe with high-quality, timeless pieces. Thankfully, Ralph Lauren is offering 30% off selected pieces for Black Friday. The offer will run from 23 November until 28 November, and just to make it even more tempting, the brand is offering free shippin...
The Year’s Most Popular Wide-Leg Trousers Are Finally on Sale
My top pick, however, has to be the brand’s Mason Pants. The perfect wide-leg trousers—and I don’t say that lightly. I’ve tried a lot of wide-legs in my time and these are the only pair I’ve actually invested in this year. They were so good, in fact, that I bought them in both beige and black, and now I’m rarely spotted without them. Unsurprisingly, they’re one of the brand’s best-selling hero products, and come in eleven colours as well as petite and extended sizing options. Made from unbelievably comfortable TENCEL™ Lyocell, a more sustainable fabric that also happens to fall perfectly, there’s no bulky pockets or unflattering pleats in sight. Kaia Gerber is also a fan—she was spotted wearing her brown pair to the farmer’s market in LA earlier this year. She’s right, they’re ...
ToyQube Releases Three Snoopy Sculptures
Following recent partnerships with Butter Goods and Converse, ToyQube joins the Peanuts train by releasing three new sculptural editions of the beloved Snoopy character. Each sculpture stands 11-inches-tall and features the beagle carrying a heart or sunflowers in its arms. In one iteration, Snoopy radiates outward with the sunflower masked around its head. Made in luminous polystone, ToyQube describes the artworks as a “classic with a touch of modernity.” Heart and Flower are both available in a black and white iteration, complemented by hits of red, silver, yellow and green in the detailing. Sunflower, however, is only available in white and features a gold trim. Weighing roughly four pounds, the Snoopy sculptures are available to purchase for $535 USD each and come with an individual nu...
Art Basel’s Rich History Is Now Spearheading Today’s Digital Renaissance of Collectibles
For 20 years, Art Basel has been at the epicenter of modernized art and prestige that has continued to attract patrons and enthusiasts from across the globe, opening its doors to new generations that have embraced new mediums of self-expression and galleries that showcase their ever-evolving palettes of what they consider “unique.” This year’s 2022 Art Basel, however, which runs from December 1 to December 3 at the Miami Beach Convention Center, will be very different from its culture-rich predecessors as it puts our early exploration of the metaverse and digital collectibles front-and-center for the nascent Web3 community to experience. Marking the largest edition to date, this year’s Art Week Miami will showcase 283 galleries, with 26 exhibitors participating for the first time.&nb...
RM Sotheby’s Auctions One-Off Factory Matte Black Enzo
Made fourteen years since his passing, the Ferrari Enzo was the first machine made by the Italian marque worthy of taking on the name of its founder, Enzo Ferrari. Of the 400 units ever made, the one-of-one 2004 Ferrari Enzo in focus was the only example to be delivered from the Maranello factory finished in Nero Opaco (Matte Black). At that moment in time, Ferrari‘s color palate for road cars was limited with the vast majority of examples found in red, yellow, or black, with a handful of vehicles donning blue, silver grey, or white. The blacked-out naturally aspirated V-12 Ferrari hypercar was made for the Brunei royal family, arriving as the crown jewel of its expansive collection recognized as one of the largest the world has ever known. Previously hidden from the world, the facto...
