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.

Instead of a wedding cake – a cheese cake
A beautiful cheese cake is a great alternative to a traditional wedding cake. With delicious decorations and tasty drinks to go with it, it’s sure to be a real party highlight! Here are a few reasons why a cheese buffet is the ultimate choice for your wedding:
– With a cheese buffet, you can serve a variety of cheeses that everyone will enjoy. From mild and creamy to strong and spicy.
– Perfect for mingling: it creates an interactive and sociable atmosphere that encourages guests to mingle and chat.
– A beautifully presented cheese buffet, such as a cheese cake, exudes a sense of elegance!
– A memorable experience: Choosing a cheese platter instead of a wedding cake makes your wedding unique and memorable. It will be an experience that stands out and that your guests will be talking about long after the party is over.
It looks lovely when the cheeses in the cake stand look different, taste different and are even different sizes.
TIP! Write name tags on the cheeses! The cheeses should be brought out at least two hours before serving, so they have time to become creamy.
THE CHEESES, from the bottom up in the cake:
Abondance is an unpasteurised cheese made from cow’s milk from Savoy in France. Only milk from Abondance, Tarentaise or Montbéliarde cows may be used to make this cheese. It’s best enjoyed with a port.
Tome de Basque is a classic farmhouse cheese made from pasteurised cow’s milk from France. It’s best enjoyed with a dry white wine such as Albariño de Fefiñanes.
Sbirro is a cheese from Biella, near Milan in Italy. It is made from pasteurised cow’s milk. It is entirely handmade and is matured in a cellar where manabrea beer is also stored; the spent grain from the beer is then placed around the cheese. The best thing to drink with it is, of course, manabrea beer.
Coulommiers is part of the Brie family; it is made from both pasteurised and unpasteurised cow’s milk, though naturally the unpasteurised version is tastier. The cheese is produced in Coulommiers, which lies in the Brie region outside Paris. The best drink to accompany this little gem is a dry cider.
Chaource is a fresh cheese worthy of its name. The cheese is produced in the villages of Aube and Yonne, situated in Champagne and Burgundy, preferably using unpasteurised cow’s milk. The obvious choice to drink with this cheese is Champagne.
