V&A Dundee is set to celebrate the provocative legacy of Vivienne Westwood with a major new exhibition dedicated to one of the house’s most enduring signatures: jewellery. Opening in spring 2027, Vivienne Westwood & Jewellery will mark the first UK exhibition to focus exclusively on the designer’s radical approach to adornment, tracing how accessories became central to the visual language of one of fashion’s most rebellious voices.

Gentle Monster is stepping into the wearable technology space with a collaboration that could significantly shift the aesthetics of smart eyewear. Revealed during Google I/O 2026, the new intelligent eyewear project brings together Gentle Monster’s fashion-first design sensibility with the technological infrastructure of Google and Samsung, signaling a move away from the bulky, overtly technical appearance that has long defined the smart-glasses category.

Crocs is stepping far outside its comfort zone with a new collaboration alongside Andersson Bell, transforming its famously casual silhouettes through a sharply rebellious, punk-inflected lens.

OVO and Oracle Red Bull Racing are continuing their crossover between motorsport and streetwear with the release of a new capsule collection, further extending a collaboration that has steadily carved out its own niche between premium fashion and racing culture. Launching on May 22, the latest drop reinforces the ongoing relationship between Drake’s lifestyle label and the Formula 1 powerhouse, refining the visual language established in previous releases rather than radically reinventing it.
