The Attico Resort 2021

…

More than any It bag, the essential, rather priceless accessory we need today is a mental attitude of flexibility and resilience, helping us to adapt to an ever-shifting and often unnerving set of circumstances. We’re all trying to ride this wave the best we can: Sink or swim, as they say. The metaphor wasn’t lost on the Attico’s designers Giorgia Tordini and Gilda Ambrosio, whose resort collection images depict models navigating a watery marine landscape bathed in a blue-green light. “We’re going with the flow, evolving, and adjusting to a new mindset and to a very different reality, without losing hold on our identity,” they said.

Their fluid, supple approach translated into a sinuous, slender silhouette, but in keeping with the Attico’s seductive, über-feminine take, it was counterbalanced by self-confident structured shapes, as in a strong-shouldered, feather-trimmed hot-pink blazer tucked into matching long skinny trousers. A black leather biker jacket, cinched with a high-waisted elasticated belt, conveyed a sort of don’t-mess-with-me posture, while contrasting with the sexiness of the hip-hugging, ankle-grazing draped skirt in liquid shiny jersey it was paired with. The malleable fabric was used extensively in the collection, highlighting the need for comfort even a diehard Attico partygoer has to acknowledge today. Glam silk cady and luscious satin were ditched in favor of more sensible everyday fabric options, like crisp poplin, nylon, and supple lightweight leather.

That said, do not expect sloppy, stay-at-home tracksuits or tired worn-out sweats from Tordini and Ambrosio: The social circuit might’ve been temporarily shut down and traded for a nightly doses of The Crown on Netflix, but glamour lurks always round the corner chez Attico. The retro decorative flair the designers favor wasn’t at all relinquished, just replaced by industrial sleek embellishments, more disco than boudoir—flat rectangular sequins jazzing up a slinky iridescent minidress, or heat-sealed shiny surfaces shimmering on a high-slit asymmetrical slip dress.

“Being beautiful and a little self-centered while feeling at ease and comfortable—why not?” they asked. To address the comfort situation their way, they concocted a series of cut-out clingy numbers, sexy tops, and miniskirts in liquid jersey with drawstring draping effects, to reveal or conceal bare skin according to moods. In today’s locked-down reality, a sensible, soothing sense of ease is surely key; yet at Attico, the seduction game is apparently never quarantined.

A$AP Rocky Turned An Entire Manchester City Kit Into His Album Rollout

A$AP Rocky doesn’t do album rollouts quietly, and this one recruited an entire Premier League club to help. Manchester City, PUMA, and Rocky teamed up on a limited apparel run tied to “Don’t Be Dumb,” his 2026 album, timed around his September 5th show at Co-op Live.

The centerpiece is a long-sleeve PUMA King jersey in black and archive gold, with “DON’T BE DUMB” running down the sleeve and AWGE branding worked in throughout. A bold “MANCHESTER” graphic covers the back. Fans could also add limited “A$AP 11” name-and-number printing onto the club’s actual Home, Away, or Third kits, while supplies lasted at retail.

There’s a players-only version too, and it never went up for sale. That one sticks closer to City’s usual sky-blue identity, with its own sleeve detailing and back graphic — the kind of piece that exists purely because a handful of people got lucky.

The whole rollout kicked off with a one-night pop-up on September 4th, when PUMA turned a spot in Manchester’s Northern Quarter into a pop-up cafe for the night, mixing football, music, and street style into one room before the wider release hit the stadium store the next morning. Some of those jerseys even came with golden tickets to the concert or that Saturday’s match.

Rocky has called the project true to his own design language, and it’s not even his only club collaboration this cycle — a similar drop with AC Milan landed around the same time. At this point, the line between fashion week and matchday has basically disappeared.

Quavo And Lids Are Going All In On Atlanta With Their New Cap Pack

Quavo has never been shy about his hat obsession, and Lids just gave him another outlet for it. Their new “Atlanta” pack drops September 12th, marking another round in a partnership that’s been running strong since 2019.

The collection is a love letter to the city, spread across three very different caps. One mashes up pinstripes, script lettering, and Braves branding into a single design, working navy, red, white, and light blue into the mix. Another goes the opposite direction entirely — fully iced out in crystal detailing, done up in black and red, with both the Falcons and the Braves showing up in the design. The third strips things back to an old-school “ATL” trucker cap in red, white, and gold, the kind of understated piece that lets the city’s name do the talking.

None of this is new territory for Quavo. He’s talked before about waiting on hat releases as a kid, and that same excitement seems to be what’s kept this partnership going years past most celebrity collabs. His earlier Lids run leaned on one moment — the Braves’ 1995 World Series win — but this pack pulls from the city’s whole sports history instead of just one highlight.

Lids has called Quavo one of the rare voices who can blend music, fashion, and sports without it feeling forced, and this drop backs that up. Given how fast his past releases have moved, Atlanta might want to set an alarm for September 12th.
