This week on the LuxeGen Group Chat we break down one of the most immersive brand events of the season – where fashion meets nostalgia and Gen Z’s obsession with analog culture takes centre stage. From dreamy New Balance 204L colourways to bead-making, Polaroids and mystery book swaps, this episode is all about slowing down and reconnecting with physical experiences in a digital-first world. We also get into the Hot List, unpacking the ongoing Alex vs Alix podcast drama – PR stunt or real beef? Plus, a full Coachella debrief: from minimalist celeb style vs influencer excess, to the growing conversation around status, authenticity and ‘performative’ festival culture. And of course, we dive into pop culture highlights – from Justin Bieber’s headline moment to the emotional return of ‘The Hunger Games’ with its upcoming prequel.
