This is the ‘Style Special’ for October 2026, promising advice, ideas and inspiration to keep you ahead of the latest trends in ‘fashion, design and urbanism’. Follow the lead of trailblazers including the likes of Lebanese architect Lina Ghotmeh, Atsuko Isamoto—editor-in-chief of Ritokei, an independent newspaper dedicated to Japan’s remote islands—and Indonesian entrepreneur Indra Kantono, whose latest ventures include the buzzy new Singaporean cocktail bars Pop City and Bop.
Plus, a roundup of the ‘Top 25’ staples and brands to have on your radar this autumn, and a field dispatch from Lisbon’s annual street festival, ‘Santos Populares’.
