Welcome to the Friday Weekly Wrap-Up newsletter, where we explore the intersection of Art, Fashion, and Pop Culture.
📰 Culture Club: Chanel Goes Print
To mark its centenary in the UK, Chanel is launching an Arts & Culture Magazine, spotlighting five years of creative collabs with artists and institutions. Spearheaded by Yana Peel and the Culture Fund, the launch takeover at Foreign Exchange News, Bayswater runs until 28 June. Go while it’s hot.
🎨 Saint Laurent Stages a Show Inside an Art Installation
For S/S 2026, Saint Laurent presented its menswear collection inside Le Bruit des Tirs an installation by artist Céleste Boursier-Mougenot. The setting mirrored the show’s quiet power: sheer silks, pyjama tailoring, and sharp shoulders. Anthony Vaccarello called it a tribute to the queer artists who found solace on Fire Island during the AIDS crisis.
🧠 AWIT: Build Your Own Art World
Circle Monday 7 July: the AWITA conference is back at the Warburg Institute. This half-day power event connects women in the arts with cultural heavyweights to chat money taboos, leadership styles and how AI can make our work lives smarter (finally). Short, sharp, career-boosting, don’t sleep on tickets.
👠 The Antwerp Six Get Their Flowers
It’s taken 40 years, but the iconic Antwerp Six are finally being honoured with their first major exhibition at MoMu Antwerp. Opening in March 2026, the show traces the legendary designers’ careers from the Royal Academy to the global fashion stage.
🥖 Carb Couture: The Baguette Holder Is Here
Gustaf Westman dropped a very Parisian flex: a sculptural pink baguette holder. Equal parts surrealist accessory and TikTok thirst trap, it premiered at his Paris pop-up (3 Rue Cunin-Gridaine).
