ten c aw25 | earth, texture, and the reinvention of the suit

It’s Milan Design Week, and for the occasion, Jimmy Choo trades movement for stillness in a new collaboration. For Salone del Mobile, the luxury accessories brand teams up with Crosby Studios to present a striking new installation inside its Sant’Andrea flagship store — an architectural pause that invites viewers to rethink the pace of design.

At the centre of the space is a leg-height glass capsule created by Crosby Studios founder Harry Nuriev. Inside, a curated selection of Jimmy Choo shoes appears suspended in time: iconic archival designs sit alongside 3D-printed replicas, forming a quiet, sculptural timeline. The effect is subtle but deliberate, like a runway frozen mid-stride.

Visible from both inside the boutique and the street outside, the installation draws from Creative Director Sandra Choi’s own archive, presenting key pieces from the brand’s history. By placing them in dialogue with digitally reproduced forms, the project plays with the tension between permanence and reinvention.

“For me, the challenge is always to transform familiar spaces and objects into something new,” says Nuriev. “With this project, I wanted to take a commercial store and turn it into a temporary exhibition, a space that would exist for just one week but leave a lasting impression.” Sandra Choi echoes this sentiment: “The concept plays with the idea of timelessness, a study that underscores the art form of our creations over the years to be spotlighted.”

The collaboration marks the latest chapter in an ongoing creative dialogue between Jimmy Choo and Crosby Studios, which began in 2023. Running from April 8 – 13, the installation opens with an intimate in-store cocktail event co-hosted by Choi and Nuriev.

Diesel’s Remaster capsule is a tribute to the deep, often personal link between music and fashion. Under Glenn Martens’ direction and in collaboration with NTS Radio, the brand hands the mic to 15 DJs from across the globe — each one selecting a garment and printing it with a quote tied to a track that changed everything for them.

There’s Charisse C, the Zimbabwean-born, London-based DJ known for spotlighting Black electronic music heritage; Physical Therapy from New York, blending chaos and catharsis; Slim Soledad, bringing São Paulo’s ballroom energy to Paris; Venetta, channeling Berlin’s queer club scene along with fellow Berlin-based artist LSDXOXO; and many more contributors. Every garment reflects the individual behind it, embodying the power of a single track to reroute a life.

Visually, Remaster pulls from the archives of tour merch and Diesel’s own design language. Sheer tanks, distressed denim, sweatshirts, miniskirts and deconstructed dresses come layered, devoré-treated or in punchy Pop colours. Streetwear meets stage-wear essentially. Accessories include updated versions of the Play bag, a new pair of Trini-D-Y sunglasses made with EssilorLuxottica, and stomp-worthy footwear like the Lake clear mule and the D-Shock boot.

But that’s not all. On April 12, Diesel heads to Shanghai for an eight-hour public festival. The tour continues in Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya, bringing club nights and exclusive performances to each city.

The capsule is available now online and in select stores.

For its 20th anniversary, Messika unveils Move Ciselé, a refined take on its signature Move collection, where gold is not just polished but sculpted. Founded in 2005 by Valérie Messika, the Parisian jewellery house has developed a unique chiseled finish — a meticulous technique designed to catch and reflect light, giving each piece an artisanal depth.  

Unlike traditional satin or brushed textures, chiseled gold is crafted with precision. Artisans delicately carve the metal, creating grooves that form an intricate play of raised and recessed surfaces. The result is a rich, tactile effect — one that transforms gold into something almost fluid, constantly shifting with movement and light. “Move Ciselé is a new space for expression in our expertise and creativity. Sculpted like a diamond, chiseled gold captures and reflects light, revealing a new dimension to our jewellery signature,” says Valérie Messika.  

Inspired by haute couture’s ability to bring texture to fabric, the technique mirrors the effect of silk velvet — subtle yet luminous. The iconic Move Noa and Move Classique designs are reimagined with this new finish, adding contemporary sophistication to the Maison’s most recognisable pieces. Bold yet refined, Move Ciselé marks a new chapter in Messika’s ongoing exploration of innovation in fine jewellery.
