Dior’s Dioriviera pop-up hits Hong Kong, plus Armani’s Fala Chen tie-up and Fendi’s Pet Travel Line – this month’s hottest luxury fashion launches

Daring collaborations and iconic brands are always a source of delight to fashion watchers the world over. This month’s most electrifying global releases include Fendi’s pet line for your furry friends, while Giorgio Armani is highlighting female forces – including Chinese-American actress Fala Chen – with its new social media series Crossroads.
So here it is: STYLE’s pick of the season’s most talked-about luxury news that you wouldn’t want to miss.
The Dioriviera pop-up hits Hong Kong

Spending your summer holiday at the beach? Great timing then with Dior’s Dioriviera capsule collection launching this month. It is a defiantly summery selection that pretty much demands a trip to an exclusive waterside destination.
Getting even further into the spirit of summer, the collection also includes everything from beach games to a hammock to a surfboard – and, because you need to get back to your clifftop resort after the beach – a scooter in a partnership with Vespa.
Introducing Fendi’s Pet Travel Line

Life’s absolute essentials, number 8,594: an extremely well-dressed dog. Yes, those of you worrying that your pandemic puppy has been insufficiently pampered, fear no more – Fendi has very much got your pooch covered with its optimistically named Pet Travel Line. Prepare to kit your canine companion out in the highest-end clobber it is ever likely to wear: a water-repellent nylon coat, a leash and a collar, as well as a particularly smart pet carrier (lapdogs only), which like the collar features its own customisable leather tag.
All come emblazoned with the brand’s signature FF logo, in a smart, muted (and, crucially, extremely forgiving when it comes to dirt) colour scheme of brown and tobacco. Now you just need to worry about being upstaged by your pooch – and perhaps by the fact that it will no longer be your pet that is of interest to dognappers but their elegant outfits.

Case in point: Giorgio Armani’s new social media series, Crossroads. Based on the notion that the brand helps women express themselves, it consists of interviews with 14 women, each of them in a different city, who tell their personal stories, focusing on moments when they had to make a particularly important decision.
