ISSUE FW’26
In our new FW’26 issue, we take you to the south of France and to Renée and Jan’s wedding, which was a celebration of love, friendship and style. We also sit down with Louis Abel founder Jimmy Loutfi for an in-depth interview about how his own wedding rings marked the start of a new chapter in fine jewellery, and look ahead to New York Bridal Fashion Week for the silhouettes, details and ideas that will set the tone for the coming season.
The wedding reception
A New York wedding where Scandinavian minimalism meets the city’s pulse
New York has a special ability to capture big emotions without overdoing them. Amidst stone façades, long pavements and a constant flow of life, our cover couple, Sarah and Aaron, created a wedding that felt both natural and carefully thought out.

New York has a special ability to capture big emotions without exaggerating them. Amidst stone façades, long pavements and a constant flow of life, our cover couple, Sarah and Aaron, created a wedding that felt both natural and carefully thought-out — a fusion of urban chic and Scandinavian minimalism.
Together before saying ‘I do’
When they met, with the city as their backdrop and nerves just beneath the surface, it wasn’t a grand moment — and that’s precisely why it was everything. A brief pause, a glance, a laugh that eases the tension. It is in these moments that the story takes shape, long before the vows are spoken. Movement rather than posing. Emotion rather than perfection. The result was photographs that feel as much as they look.
With romance in focus
The ceremony shared the same visual language. Light tones, soft floral arrangements and architecture that spoke for itself. Flowers in neutral shades met candlelight in cylindrical glasses — a balance between warmth and simplicity.
A dinner with meaning
After the ceremony, the day settled into a new rhythm. Dinner provided a pause in the activity, but not in the atmosphere. Long tables, subdued lighting, conversations that flowed. Here, the day was allowed to sink in — the vows had been exchanged, and now the celebrations really began. Just enough to set the mood without overshadowing the experience.
Evenings to remember
As the evening set in, the energy shifted, but not the spirit. The dance floor filled up, shoes came off, jackets were draped loosely over the backs of chairs. Laughter, movement, music that drew people closer together. Tequila shots were passed across the bar like little love letters. Drinks were mixed quickly, the atmosphere built slowly. It was an evening that didn’t try to be iconic — and that’s precisely why it became just that.
