Hot off the heels of Australian Fashion Week, here are six fresh bites of fashion news that are catering to our continued cravings for all things style this week.

SABA is celebrating six decades of modern Australian tailoring in the only way it really makes sense in 2026: by taking over your morning coffee ritual.
From 26–28 May, the brand is rolling out “SABA In The City”, a cafe-hopping activation across Sydney and Melbourne that basically says: if you were already going to get a flat white, you may as well do it in a moment of heritage fashion theatre. (But not before you sign up to our database!)
The lineup is very on-brand meets very caffeinated. Think 100 free coffees a day at Stitch Coffee in Sydney’s QVB, another 100 at Bench Coffee Co on Collins Street in Melbourne, and a limited-edition “SABA Blanc” menu moment at Saint Dreux Emporium.
It’s all happening alongside store refreshes and openings across Collins Street, Emporium and the Sydney flagship at QVB, designed with Arent & Pyke. Translation: your morning commute is about to start looking suspiciously like a mood board for “corporate but make it chic”.
BOSS makes a grand slam move into the Australian Open style
In one of the biggest fashion-meets-sport announcements of the year, Hugo Boss has been named Official Lifestyle Outfitter of the Australian Open from 2027.
This isn’t just a logo-on-a-banner situation. BOSS has hit a full game-set-match winner, and will be dressing thousands of staff, officials, ball kids and umpires, effectively giving Melbourne Park a full wardrobe reset. Think tailored sportswear, refined colour palettes and a very polished interpretation of “tennis core”.
Beyond uniforms, the partnership will stretch into pop-ups, fan activations, merchandise and curated experiences designed to bring the full BOSS universe courtside. In other words, the tennis will still be elite, but now so will the outfit watching it.
It’s match point kind of err, match, Just with better lighting and more linen-blend suiting.
Swatch and Audemars Piguet say the quiet part out loud: watches are meant to be fun again
In a move that feels part horology, part pop art fever dream, Swatch and Audemars Piguet have teamed up to create the “Royal Pop” collection. And, it’s exactly as maximalist as it sounds.
Inspired by Pop Art and powered by a shared desire to break watch etiquette entirely, the collaboration reimagines timepieces as something you don’t just wear, but style. Around your neck, clipped to your bag, dangling from your wrist, or sitting proudly on a desk like a tiny sculptural flex – you choose where it goes, and subtlety suddenly doesn’t stand a chance.
The designs draw from Audemars Piguet’s iconic Royal Oak heritage and Swatch’s playful 80s energy, resulting in eight colourful Bioceramic models that feel like someone looked at a traditional watch and asked: “What if we didn’t?”
Inside, it’s still serious watchmaking – think SISTEM51 movement, serious power reserve, sapphire crystal, and technical finesse. Outside, it’s pure joy. Which might be the most Swiss thing of all: precision engineering disguised as a party.
The Inspired Unemployed collab with Kathmandu (and suddenly winter feels funny again)
The princes of puffer jackets have handed the design reins to one of Australia’s most chaotic comedic duos for a limited-edition Kathmandu x The Inspired Unemployed partnership that proves technical outerwear doesn’t have to take itself too seriously.
Meet the Epiq Falcon and Epiq Steele – two puffers designed not just for warmth, but for personality. One is loud, bright yellow and unapologetically extra. The other is more understated, with earthy tones and a quietly philosophical slogan stitched into the back: “life is rare, don’t waste it”.
The result is a collection that feels like a conversation between two friends: one who turns up overdressed on purpose, and one who insists they “just threw this on”.
Kathmandu builds both jackets on its performance foundation, using recycled fabrics, duck down insulation, and all the technical credentials you’d expect. The creative direction leans into pure personality. Honestly, you can’t help but imagine people wearing them everywhere, from Bondi cafes to questionable hiking decisions they make at 11pm on a Friday.
CSB’s Resort drop is winter’s escape fantasy … no boarding pass required
Not a strict collab, but definitely worth an honourable mention, CSB is officially in its getaway era. The brand’s new Resort collection is less “gym wardrobe” and more “what if your activewear booked itself a holiday and never came back?”
Across Aquatic, Wine and Deep Midnight Navy colourways, the collection blends activewear, swimwear and off-duty staples into a single fantasy uniform. The standout is a strapless mini dress that looks like it belongs somewhere between a beach club and a Pilates studio – ideally both in the same day.
There’s also CSB’s first swimwear offering, including triangle bikini tops and cheeky bottoms that continue the brand’s signature minimal aesthetic, now just with more saltwater potential.
Built on their Form and Serenity Soft fabrics, the pieces are designed to move from studio to street to “I might just extend my holiday actually” energy without missing a beat. It’s winter dressing for people who are emotionally already in summer.
We’re positively in love with this body-positive collab
Finally, the Motto x LMTBYB By Nat Angel collab is a celebration of street fashion with soul and LMTBYB (Let Me Try Before You Buy) – the popular fashion initiative created by Australian content creator and stylist Natalie Angel, known for her relatable try-on videos and body-positive approach. Our pick is this Euro Stripe Boyfriend Blazer. Purple! Punchy! Perfect Slouch! What’s not to love?
