Where: Available for pre-order starting Dec. 18 at christopherjohnrogers.com

He takes inspiration from everything and anything: from the prim Southern dressing of his youth to paper balls and trash bags, nothing is too démodé to inspire the insouciant yet effortful silhouettes and cuts. His keen eye for color continues to inspire awe, with each collection taking shape around a distinct color palette that shouldn’t work, but in his masterful hands, soars. Rogers introduces whimsical new prints, polka dots, and—for the color weary—“darker” (by his standards) monochromatic looks in black and muted beige. Collection 009 will be available for pre-order starting Dec. 18. Mark your calendars.

Where: Online at numeroventuno.com and 7forallmankind.com

Why: For its resort 2022 collection, 7 For All Mankind is partnering for the first time with Italian luxury label No. 21, led by designer Alessandro Dell’Acqua. The capsule is a step on the American denim brand’s journey toward using 80 percent sustainable materials by 2023. The new collection of exaggerated overshirts, hoodies, and capes paired with slouchy wide-legged crop jeans feature overtly feminine codes, complete with a sculpted bra, pussy-bow blouse, and chiffon-trimmed pencil skirt for fully dynamic looks. The collection plays with gendered proportions and fluidity, too (see: No. 21’s signature blush pink and and 7 For All Mankind’s iconic indigo blues). This debut arrives just in time for No. 21’s 21st (!) anniversary and includes an accompanying campaign shot by Robin Galiegue, who directs androgynous street-cast models with a powerful message of inclusivity and fearless individuality. The spirit of the partnership is a commitment to the environment, with pieces designed for people across all spectrums of identity.

39 Palace and Kappa Unveil New Collaboration

Who: Palace and Kappa

What: Palace and Kappa’s debut collaboration

Where: Online at palaceskateboards.com and at Palace stores in London, Tokyo, NYC, and L.A.

Why: The Palace x Kappa collab is a combination of Italian street style and ’90s British football culture (what more could you ask for?). Jerseys, tracksuits, hats, and an array of accessories make up the reinterpretation of classic garments for the modern athleisure enthusiast. To find out what pieces would appeal to both skaters and footballers, Kappa invited Palace’s design team to the Kappa archive in Turin, Italy. Time was largely spent browsing the Italian sportswear brand’s immense collection of vintage jerseys once donned by legendary footballers and Britpop sensations alike, as well as hundreds of knits from teams that have been sponsored by Kappa over the past 30 years. The collection includes a crinkle effect long jacket, the Kappa 222 Banda tracksuit, and raglan tees with a co-branded logo featuring Kappa’s icon (famously the first logo depicting a human being). Hypebeasts, take note.

40 Marlo Laz Introduces Home Capsule Collection

What: The Stella Mare home capsule collection

Where: Available online at marlolaz.com

Why: Designer Jesse Marlo Lazowski’s travel adventures have taken her from islands in Japan’s Seto Inland Sea to the Venetian lagoons in northern Italy.
