Founded by designer Raul Lopez, LUAR LUAR has built a distinct fashion universe around bold proportion, subverted classics, and an irreverent approach to luxury. Ready-to-wear moves between sculptural tailoring, denim, sportswear, sheer layers, and exaggerated silhouettes, while footwear and accessories extend that same attitude through strong shapes and unexpected details. At the center is the now-signature Ana bag, whose sharply curved handle and structured form have become one of the label’s most recognizable codes.

The brand continues to expand that language across runway collections, leather footwear, accessories, collaborations, and its made-to-measure LUAR Atelier, where one-of-one pieces are created with clients. Whether reworking an everyday tank, disrupting the construction of a trouser, or turning a handbag into an instantly identifiable silhouette, LUAR approaches fashion with a sense of personality that refuses to disappear into convention.

French designer Arthur Avellano Arthur Avellano has spent years challenging what latex can look and feel like in fashion. After studying fine arts in Toulouse and fashion at Atelier Chardon Savard, he developed his own hybrid latex with specialized laboratories, creating a material with qualities closer to leather while preserving latex’s distinctive weight, movement, and reflective surface. What began as an unconventional material experiment has evolved into a complete wardrobe of tailoring, gowns, outerwear, and made-to-order pieces worn by figures including Kim Kardashian, Julia Fox, Rosalía, Doja Cat, and Timothée Chalamet.

But Avellano’s influence extends beyond his own label. His technical knowledge led to the creation of Studio Avellano, which advises other fashion houses and develops and produces latex prototypes for outside clients. Balenciaga has reportedly collaborated with Avellano since 2019, while Vogue España also identifies Balenciaga and Opening Ceremony among the brands that sought out his expertise. From consulting for larger houses to creating costumes for the Paris Opera Ballet and winning the 2023 ANDAM Pierre Bergé Prize, Avellano has helped reposition latex from a material associated primarily with fetishwear into a serious medium for tailoring, couture-level experimentation, and luxury fashion.

BASIC Magazine Issue 31 Cover Release featuring artist Masego Masego

Masego’s musical foundation was forged in the church, where gospel filled his childhood home while reggae, dancehall, and lovers rock soundtracked drives to basketball practice with his father. Gospel kept him grounded; his Jamaican roots gave him audacity. With Fix Your Face, Masego turns those early influences inward, revisiting the faith, family, emotions, and inherited rituals that shaped him and continue to inform the signature sound he calls Riddim and Blues.

💭 “People have heard the Masego story, but they have not always heard me zoom in on what I was feeling while making the songs they love to jump to.”

Los Angeles-based Blackman Cruz Blackman Cruz approaches collecting with curiosity, humor, and an eye for the unexpected. Founded by interior design duo Adam Blackman and David Cruz, the gallery brings together antiques, furniture, art, lighting, and objects spanning different periods and places. Rather than adhering to a single movement or aesthetic, their selections are intended to intrigue, stimulate a sense of history, and—as the pair puts it—perhaps “incite a laugh.”

That eclectic perspective extends to BC Workshop, the studio’s own collection of furniture and lighting, designed and produced in limited quantities in Los Angeles by local artisans using natural materials. Blackman Cruz also represents contemporary artists and designers whose practices range from sculptural furniture and repurposed objects to painting and functional art. Historic finds sit alongside new work, creating a constantly shifting dialogue between eras, materials, cultures, and ideas.

Milan-based DURAZZI MILANO DURAZZI MILANO builds its identity around timeless elegance, uncompromising quality, and an unconventional approach to Italian luxury. Created and designed by Ilenia Durazzi, the brand draws from her interests in art, architecture, cinema, photography, and the equestrian world, translating them into precise tailoring, tactile materials, leather goods, footwear, and womenswear that resist the pull of passing trends.

Durazzi’s return to Italy after more than a decade in Paris—and her meeting with artist Maurizio Cattelan, who became a co-founder—helped set the project in motion. Across its collections, disciplined construction meets moments of disruption: riding references appear alongside fluid draping, raw finishes, unexpected material combinations, and artisanal details. The result is a distinctly Italian wardrobe where tradition becomes a foundation for experimentation rather than a limitation.

Founded in Italy in 2021, Sienna Rossi SiennaRossi approaches footwear through opulence, femininity, and unapologetic glamour. Inspired by everything from moonlit soirées to sun-drenched escapes, the brand centers sculptural silhouettes designed to command attention while balancing contemporary impact with a sense of timelessness.

Across pumps, sandals, mules, boots, and flats, that philosophy takes shape through rhinestones, satin, patent finishes, bows, lace, animal prints, unexpected cutouts, and statement heels. From crystal-covered evening shoes to sculptural hand-shaped heels and dramatic knee-high boots, Sienna Rossi treats footwear as the focal point rather than the finishing touch—pieces designed to be worn with confidence and, in the brand’s words, “without rules.”
