THE HOTEL:

Orient Express Venezia

The Orient Express Venezia has opened at the striking Palazzo Donà Giovannelli in Venice. The hotel rises where two canals intertwine along the Rio di Noale and swiftly follows last year’s launch of Orient Express La Minerva in Rome
 and La Dolce Vita Orient Express, the luxury train inaugurated in 2025. The palazzo has since been restored and there are now 47 individually designed bedrooms, suites and residences, plus a restaurant from three-Michelin-starred chef Heinz Beck, a beautiful garden and an art-deco Wagon Bar.

THE INTERIORS PREVIEW:

H&M Home x Kelly Wearstler

At last month’s Milan Design Week, H&M Home unveiled an installation with acclaimed American designer Kelly Wearstler. The Kelly Wearstler H&M Home collection reimagines furniture as an evolving, modular system, as small pieces that transform into something greater. Each design shifts, expands and interacts with its surroundings, blending material, form and space. The presentation featured nine objects from the much-anticipated collaboration. The full 29-piece collection launches on 3rd September.

THE SCENT:

Bulgari Eau Parfumée Thé Impérial

If you’ve stayed at a Bulgari hotel, you’ll know be familiar with the cult scent of its soaps, shampoos and conditioners. Nine years after master perfumer Jacques Cavallier created this signature fragrance, it’s taking on a new life beyond the hotel universe, joining the Eau Parfumée collection as a union of Chinese tea and Italian citrus. Expect notes of lemon, mandarin and bergamot among the musky base notes of refined black tea – the ultimate olfactory combination for summer.

THE CRUISE SHOW:

Chanel Cruise 2026/27, Biarritz

Matthieu Blazy returned Chanel to Biarritz for his first Cruise collection – the Basque coastal town where Gabrielle Chanel opened her first couture house in 1915. Titled 'Sous le Salon la Plage', the collection blurred the line between salon and shoreline, sending 79 looks down a sand-covered runway – from reworked little black dresses and raffia totes to fish-scale paillette gowns that shimmered like something that had just emerged from the sea. Front row guests included Nicole Kidman, Tilda Swinton, Marion Cotillard, Sofia Coppola and A$AP Rocky – Chanel's newest global ambassador.

Frandy Water At Gleneagles

Gleneagles has opened Frandy Water – a wood-fired sauna and freshwater immersion experience set against the dramatic landscape of rolling Perthshire hills. Hitting the sauna and cold-water swimming trends, the storied Scottish hotel is offering a private, guided introduction to them both. In signature Gleneagles style, the experience begins with a private Defender drive off the grounds of the hotel, heading to the shores of Frandy Water, just 15 minutes away. At the water's edge sits a panoramic, wood-fired sauna taking up to six guests, with views across the water and surrounding landscape.
