Launched at Dover Street Market earlier this month, the partnership reimagines two iconic Vans silhouettes – the LX Authentic 44 and LX Half-Cab 33 – through Better With Age’s distinctly lived-in, vintage-inspired lens. Expect sun-faded uppers, yellowed soles, custom leather trims and subtle distressing that give each pair the feel of a perfectly worn-in archival find. There’s also on-site personalisation available, allowing buyers to customise their trainers with vintage patches and brass letter beads for genuinely one-off designs. Alongside the footwear, the Dover Street Market space will showcase Better With Age’s latest collection and archival pieces. The shoes are also available on the Better With Age website.

The headline draw? A culinary partnership with Michelin-starred Labombe by Trivet from chef Jonny Lake and master sommelier Isa Bal. Positioned trackside overlooking the final corners and pit entry, The Vale combines world-class dining with one of the most coveted views in Formula 1. Guests can expect dishes like wild seabass crudo with orange ponzu, grilled lamb rump with bulgur wheat, and the now-signature hot tongue bun, alongside expertly paired wines and bespoke cocktails. A dedicated patisserie counter and expansive terrace complete the experience, while appearances from current drivers and team principals add to the sense of exclusivity.

Running until September, the pop-up transforms one of the hotel’s forest-fringed tennis courts into a sleek lifestyle destination shaped around the aesthetics and atmosphere of the sport. Created in partnership with Lacoste, the experience combines branded tennis equipment, a concierge service, and a dedicated courtside lounge designed to evoke the feeling of an exclusive members’ club. The project reflects the broader rise of fashion-led sporting experiences, where hospitality, design and wellness increasingly overlap. Don’t forget to pick up your Lacoste-green smoothie at the Spa Café on the way out… Visit [TheDolderGrand.com](https://www.thedoldergrand.com/en/le-club-lacoste-zurich/) ## THE BAR ### The Cloakroom At Selfridges Hidden behind the back-of-house corridors inside Selfridges, the Cloakroom Bar is the latest addition to London’s growing list of hidden drinking dens. Inspired by the famous Copacabana tracking shot in *Goodfellas*, this latest late-night spot trades the chaos of Oxford Street for velvet booths, low lighting and a decadent atmosphere. The cocktail list has been designed to mirror the mood of the space itself. The Red Velvet Negroni riffs on the room’s rich scarlet drapery, while The 109 – built with saffron vodka and yuzu sake – nods subtly to Selfridges’ iconic yellow branding. Elsewhere, classic serves sit alongside Californian wines, craft beers and cinema-inspired touches including bowls of popcorn served with every drink.

This season brings a new refinement of that legacy. Rooted in the brand’s origins as a London saddler, its renewed leather collections balance timeless craftsmanship with a more contemporary sensibility, offering a polished wardrobe of business bags, travel pieces and everyday essentials designed to move seamlessly between work, weekends and long-haul escapes. Split across six distinct collections, the new line-up feels both elevated and quietly practical. Alfred focuses on softly structured document cases and refined business silhouettes, while Century takes inspiration from vintage trunks with beautifully considered holdalls, carry-ons and travel accessories. Throughout, there’s an emphasis on supple leather, understated detailing and functionality that never compromises on elegance.

The grab-and-go restaurant serves an ultra-streamlined menu focused on three kebabs, served in pide bread rather than wraps, and filled with your choice of veal, chicken or a vegan option. For its drinks menu, Kiez Kebab has partnered with [Bar with Shapes for a Name](https://www.instagram.com/a_bar_with_shapes_for_a_name_/) to offer martinis, negronis and margaritas on tap, plus – true to Berlin style – a selection of German and Austrian beers and wines. We can’t wait to try one on its terrace. Visit [KiezKebab.com](https://www.kiezkebab.com/) ## THE BOOK ### Arnold Few lives have been documented quite like Arnold Schwarzenegger’s. This June, Taschen is bringing together the definitive visual record. *Arnold* traces Schwarzenegger’s extraordinary journey from rural Austria to bodybuilding icon, Hollywood superstar and political heavyweight through more than 70 years of photography, film stills and personal archive material. Originally released as a sold-out Collector’s Edition, the new unlimited edition offers a rare look at the man behind the myth. Alongside vintage bodybuilding photography and intimate family images are portraits by some of the world’s most celebrated photographers, including Annie Leibovitz, Robert Mapplethorpe and Andy Warhol. Exclusive interviews with collaborators, friends and fellow bodybuilding legends add further texture, charting not just Schwarzenegger’s rise, but the cultural impact he’s had across film, fitness and politics.

Spread across three restored historic buildings and nearly a hectare of Mediterranean gardens, the 45-key property blends Renaissance architecture with the cinematic elegance Airelles has become known for. Interiors balance rich Italian detailing with the brand’s signature polished glamour; standout features include a vast Guerlain Spa, four swimming pools, a kids’ club, multiple dining destinations and Elton’s Club, created in collaboration with the great man. The crowning jewel is the sprawling Suite del Doge, offering panoramic lagoon views across 450 square metres.

This second collaboration combines Represent’s streetwear edge with Belstaff’s storied motorcycling archive to create a capsule that feels both rugged and sharp. At the centre of the collection is a heavyweight leather jacket and trouser set inspired by an original 1990s Belstaff racing suit, reworked with a more relaxed, wearable fit while retaining the protective detailing and naturally aged finish of vintage biker gear. Elsewhere, lightweight racing jackets, washed jersey pieces and faded graphics tap into classic motocross references, while co-branded hardware and distressed treatments give everything a worn-in authenticity that feels genuinely collectible. We love the campaign images, shot on the dramatic sands of Pendine Beach in Carmarthenshire, which is famous for hosting land speed record attempts in the 1920s.

This super-premium Jamaican rum blends liquid from four of the island’s most revered distilleries – Hampden Estate, Long Pond, Worthy Park and Clarendon – into a 100% Jamaican expression with no added sugar. Named after the opening lyric of ‘Jumpin’ Jack Flash’, the rum channels the band’s long-standing connection to Jamaica, particularly the period surrounding the recording of *Goats Head Soup* in Kingston. The bottle design leans into that energy too, with the iconic tongue logo surrounded by graphic wave patterns inspired by sound and movement.

First introduced by Bad Bunny in 2024 – and worn during his Super Bowl performance back in February – this latest iteration draws inspiration from the adidas Taekwondo archive model. Key details include premium suede overlays on the toe and heel, bungee-cord lacing, and ‘Benito’ branding alongside the signature three stripes. The vivid red colourway references the Flamboyán tree, a cultural symbol of Puerto Rico and seasonal marker of the start of summer. The trainers drop on 30th May.
