While London designer Molly Goddard first won over the fashion crowd with her exaggerated silhouettes (think: frou-frou tulle frocks on steroids), that’s not all she’s done since her eponymous label started out in 2014 — and S/S ’19 is a fine example. Goddard has taken a more judicious approach with her now signature elements (ruching, frills, sheer fabric) to offer more wearable garments for the everyday, though still steeped in whimsicality — the very quality that first made us fall in love.

Hot on the heels of January’s 3M release, Tyler, The Creator is back with more tweaks to his Converse Golf le Fleur* One Star sneaker. This time, the logo cameos on one side of the soft leather upper, with colour-blocking making a return after the previous two solid-hued drops. Two colourways — one in shades of blue and another, in black, blue and white with contrast green top-stitching — are to hit shelves on Feb 23.

Aries really made an entrance on the fashion map in 2018 with its catchy slogan (Aries, Arise) and standout graphics — but the latter’s no surprise given that one-half of its masterminds, Fergus Purcell, is also behind the Palace Skateboards logo that commands a line of kids queueing up for logo-printed tees and jackets on drop day.
This collaboration taps English artist Jeremy Deller for an archeology-themed collection, weaving in references to the Paleolithic era and Stonehenge, on Aries’ easy-to-wear designs like a camp collar shirt and tees.

Bulgarian designer Kiko Kostadinov’s Asics collabs might not be as buzzy as A-Cold-Wall* x Nike or well, Off-White, but his repeated tie-ups with the brand have proven to be grails nonetheless. Pairing up again on the GEL-Delva 1, Kostadinov offers up punchier colour options than before (see: egg yolk yellow) and, the perennial crowd pleaser — white.

Continuing its range of special edition products created and released on occasion of the Chinese zodiac, Dover Street Market taps names from its retail repertoire like Japanese label Doublet, skate brand Call Me 917, and Singapore collective Youths in Balaclava to name but a few.

Just in time for Super Bowl weekend, Adidas and Bape drops a collection ranging garments to football gear coloured in the latter’s iconic camo.

Available from 2 February.
With A-Cold-Wall*’s Samuel Ross having repopularised the Zoom Vomero 5 with his Nike collab (and coincidentally, having dropped the third colourway yesterday), Nike is bringing it back too all on their own. For those who hesitated on Ross’ version because of the protruding plastic heel counter, here are two safe bets for everyday wear. One in white, and another in black.
