Latest Obsession: Jacob Elordi in the Latest Bottega Veneta Campaign

Jacob Elordi commands attention in Bottega Veneta’s latest campaign, “What Are Dreams?”, a striking black-and-white series by legendary photographer Duane Michals. Shot at Michals’ New York home, the campaign blends surreal stills and short film, placing Elordi at the center of enigmatic, cinematic tableaux. In a rare poetic touch, he even recites Michals’ 2001 poem of the same name, adding a layer of mystique to the fashion narrative.

Under Matthieu Blazy’s creative direction, Elordi emerges as more than a model—he is the living embodiment of Bottega’s quiet luxury: understated, compelling, and effortlessly stylish. Every frame reflects a careful balance of craft, heritage, and contemporary allure, proving that the brand’s ethos extends far beyond its iconic intrecciato bags.

The campaign asks a question beyond mere style: what does it feel like to inhabit Bottega Veneta today? With Elordi’s poised presence and Michals’ surreal vision, the answer is clear—a dreamlike, cinematic mood that lingers long after the image fades.

Melanie C Ignites the Dance Floor with 'SWEAT'

Pop icon Melanie C is back and she’s bringing the heat!!

The former Spice Girl has just dropped her latest single “SWEAT”, the first track off her highly anticipated upcoming album, marking a bold new era in her ever-evolving solo career.

“SWEAT” is a pulsating, high-energy anthem that blends Melanie’s signature vocal power with sleek, contemporary production. Drawing on elements of dance-pop, electro, and even a touch of 90s club nostalgia, the track is a confident declaration of physicality, movement, and liberation.

With a beat that begs to be played loud and a hook that lingers long after the first listen, “SWEAT” captures the essence of late-night euphoria—sweaty dance floors, flashing lights, and the kind of freedom only music can deliver.

Melanie C notes: “This song is all about losing yourself—in the moment, in the music, in your body. It’s a celebration of strength, sensuality, and unapologetic joy.”

“SWEAT” arrives as the first taste of her forthcoming album, set for release in early 2026. The project promises to be Melanie’s most personal and sonically adventurous work to date, continuing the momentum of her critically acclaimed 2020 self-titled album that reintroduced her as a pop powerhouse in her own right.

Accompanied by a visually striking music video that combines raw choreography with cinematic flair, “SWEAT” reaffirms Melanie C’s place in the pop landscape—not just as a legacy act, but as an artist who continues to innovate, evolve, and inspire.

Whether you're a longtime fan or new to her solo work, “SWEAT” is the start of something exciting. Get ready—Melanie C is turning up the volume in 2025.

The body becomes a stage where gender rehearses itself; endlessly, restlessly. One moment, the chest is armour: sculpted, hard, virile. The next, it is pierced by softness: glitter, petals, shadows of leaves. Butler reminds us that gender is never essence but repetition, a series of acts that harden into “truth.”

Yet in the cracks of performance, vulnerability seeps through. Flowers erupt from the waistband, not as decoration but as insurgents. They expose the absurdity of virility when stripped of its theatre. Muñoz would call this a glimpse of queer futurity: masculinity remade in colour, light, and excess.

Ahmed teaches us that orientations matter, and here, the body bends, twists, reclines into new alignments that disorient the straight line of heteronormativity. Each image oscillates. The stripes reads a prison of expectation, yet also a runway for camp. The torso flexes, but the hand trembles. Glitter wounds and heals at the same time.

This is not contradiction but coexistence: virility and vulnerability locked in the same frame, refusing to cancel each other. The battle is not to defeat masculinity but to expose its costume. To wear it, distort it, queer it until its weight gives way to possibility.

Nicholas Alexander Chavez for Jacquemus x Nike ''Moon Shoe'' Campaign

American actor Nicholas Chavez—best known for his role in Netflix’s Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story—takes center stage in the latest campaign from French fashion house Jacquemus, unveiled today.

Captured by renowned photographer Oliver Hadlee Pearch, the striking visuals feature Chavez topless and glistening with sweat, as he moves seamlessly between a dance studio and outdoor settings. The campaign highlights the Nike x Jacquemus “J Force 1” Moon Shoe, a bold fusion of athletic performance and high fashion.

The highly anticipated sneaker is set to officially launch on September 29 exclusively at jacquemus.com.

WE LOVE the 'Mr. Gray' Campaign by PUMP!

With the introduction of Mr. Gray, PUMP! expands its repertoire of timeless essentials. The concept is refreshingly straightforward—classic silhouettes, executed with precision. The collection comprises four staple cuts: brief, boxer, jock, and thong, each rendered in a singular, meticulously chosen shade of gray.

This particular gray speaks volumes in its subtlety. Quietly confident and endlessly versatile, it carries a distinct presence. Anchored by a sleek, polished waistband, the design feels deliberate and enduring—untethered from trends, built to last.

Mr. Gray doesn’t aim to reinvent; instead, it draws strength from permanence. It channels a stripped-down confidence—the kind that doesn’t clamor for attention but effortlessly commands it. Here, understatement is the statement.

Pietro Boselli Gets Wet — And Philosophical — in His Steamiest Shoot Yet

Pietro Boselli is no stranger to thirst traps — but his latest series dives deeper. Shot against the sun-drenched backdrop of Piana degli Ulivi di Ostuni, Aliquid Aqua Inest (Latin for “there is something in the water”) sees the sculpted polymath turning a simple outdoor shower into a moment of sensual meditation.

Yes, the water clings. Yes, the light hits just right. But beneath the heat and skin, there’s something more: a quiet invitation to rethink what pleasure, wellness, and modern masculinity really look like.

With 3.4 million Instagram followers and counting, Pietro isn’t just serving body — he’s curating a lifestyle. Call it la dolce vita 2.0: equal parts philosopher and fantasy, sweat and soul.

These aren’t just hot pics — they’re a vibe, a vision, a challenge to live (and look) beautifully.

DSQUARED2 Marks 30 Years of Fashion Rebellion with FW25 Campaign

DSQUARED2 stole the spotlight at Milan Women’s Fashion Week, turning their 30th anniversary into one of the most electric moments of the season. Dean and Dan Caten dialed up the energy with a boundary-pushing runway led by Naomi Campbell and Doechii — a bold reminder of the brand’s unapologetic edge.

Now, that same spirit explodes in the Fall/Winter 2025 campaign, shot by legendary duo Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott and creatively directed by the Caten twins alongside Giovanni Bianco. Set in a haze of black-and-white, the imagery channels raw, late-night chaos and seductive glamour — with Irina Shayk, Louis Baines, Alex Consani, and Victor Perez leading a cast of icons and newcomers.

It’s sweaty, sexy, and defiant — a visual anthem to DSQUARED2’s legacy of rebellion and reinvention. Three decades in, and the brand is still throwing the party everyone wants to be at.
