The morning after their Autumn Winter 2026 show in Copenhagen, Anne Sofie Madsen and Caroline Clante look as though they have not quite come down from it. Sleep has been scarce. After the show they went out with the team — a few beers, a late night.

A MAGAZINE CURATED BY PETER DO
A Magazine Curated By Peter Do, 2023.
The 26th issue has been curated by Peter Do, the founder of his eponymous label and creative director of Helmut Lang.
Staying true to Do’s appreciation and fascination of craft, the cover features black embroidery that juxtaposes the functional details printed in silver Pantone found throughout the book. The document is an extension of Do’s precise hand and cultivated eye, a personal notebook that indexes formative memories and lasting relationships he holds dear. The issue explores the idea of home, from his childhood in Biên Hòa, Vietnam to living in New York, rooted in the memories held of different places, people, objects and how one remembers. It is Do’s most intimate project to date, inviting readers to understand the internal narratives of the shy designer.

Inside Villa Hegra
Among eroded rock formations and ancient Nabataean ruins lies an oasis of sorts, one that nourishes the spirit of AlUla, Saudi Arabia. A community gathers at this oasis: Villa Hegra, the latest Saudi-French jewel in the constellation of cultural villas.
A Studio Visit with Nicklas Skovgaard
When I arrived at Nicklas Skovgaard’s Copenhagen studio, he was standing outside in the snow sipping a small cup of coffee and smoking a cigarette. He wore a navy-blue Nike baseball cap and a simple navy coat over a button-up shirt and trousers, the kind of pared-back outfit that has become something of a uniform for him. He and his team had moved into the space just only a month earlier, he said.
