Following the success of the Maison's Fall-Winter 2025 and Spring-Summer 2026 campaigns, KARL LAGERFELD is delighted to announce the extension of its relationship with global entrepreneur, media personality and cultural icon Paris Hilton, continuing a partnership that has resonated with audiences around the world.

As the face of the Maison through Fall-Winter 2026 and Spring-Summer 2027, Paris Hilton returns for the next chapter of KARL LAGERFELD's From Paris With Love story, continuing to bring her signature confidence, wit and individuality. Photographed for the first time by Matt Easton, the Fall-Winter 2026 campaign introduces a new dimension to the narrative while remaining true to the House's established codes.

At the heart of the Fall-Winter 2026 story, two masters of self-reinvention meet. Making his debut is NOT-KARL, a charismatic digital character and new member in the brand’s world. Appearing alongside Paris Hilton, he brings a fresh dimension to the storytelling. Set against a series of retro multi-screen televisions, he appears throughout the campaign with Paris, bringing contrast, humor and playful irreverence to the narrative - marking the first step in NOT-KARL’s broader story beyond this season.

“Paris has brought energy, authenticity and a strong sense of individuality to our campaigns over the past two seasons,” says Pier Paolo Righi, CEO of Karl Lagerfeld. “Continuing that relationship while introducing NOT-KARL feels particularly meaningful. As a new member of the brand’s world, he brings wit and irreverence, creating an unexpected dialogue with Paris and giving us new and innovative ways to play with format, storytelling and perspective while remaining true to Karl’s point of view.”

Together, Paris Hilton and NOT-KARL form an unexpected on-screen duo, their contrasting personalities creating a playful dynamic throughout the campaign. Their exchanges create a sense of spontaneity within the story, while reinforcing the campaign’s central themes of individuality and self-reinvention.

“Continuing the relationship feels incredibly special,” says Paris Hilton. “Every campaign has felt like its own moment, and I love that we keep finding new ways to bring our worlds together. Having NOT-KARL on set made this shoot feel so iconic and just unexpected — it brought such a magical energy. I’m excited for what’s to come next!”

This season, Paris is joined by Kit Butler as the face of menswear. With his understated confidence and strong fashion profile, Kit is a contemporary counterpart to Paris, and their long-standing friendship lends effortless chemistry.

There are also two special cameo appearances to watch out for, adding a playful note to the story.

The Fall-Winter 2026 collection brings together sharp tailoring, elevated outerwear and the graphic simplicity that defines the House. Rendered in a predominantly monochromatic palette, the collection balances strong silhouettes with refined details, from a long white shirt inspired by tuxedo dressing to the K/Autograph bag range, one of the season's defining accessories.

The Fall-Winter 2026 campaign will launch globally across digital, social, print and out-of-home platforms beginning September 1st, 2026, bringing together the KARL LAGERFELD, KARL LAGERFELD JEANS and KARL LAGERFELD PARIS collections under a single creative narrative.

The campaign will be celebrated during Paris Fashion Week with a special event hosted by the Maison. Further details will be announced early September.

#GothamGadgets #GermanyPeachy Jack Huynh showed how Personal AI is transforming the relationship between people and technology and opens new possibilities

IFA Berlin, the world’s largest event for Consumer Electronics, Home Appliances and Future Tech, opened the first official day of IFA 2026 with AMD’s Opening Keynote, spotlighting the growing importance of artificial intelligence and high-performance computing for the consumer technology market. On the Innovation Stage, Jack Huynh, Senior Vice President and General Manager of AMD's Computing and Graphics Group, showed how Personal AI is transforming the relationship between people and technology and opening new opportunities in everyday life and the workplace. Huynh offered insights into the next era of computing, in which artificial intelligence is becoming more personal and proactive.

“Jack Huynh illustrated how artificial intelligence is now shaping the entire technology market. AI is making technology more personal, more intuitive, and an increasingly natural part of our everyday lives. The keynote compellingly demonstrated the additional potential unlocked when powerful hardware and intelligent applications work together,” says Leif Lindner, CEO of IFA Management GmbH.

AI expands human potential

In the IFA Opening Keynote, Jack Huynh explained that computers will not only become more powerful but will also understand people better: what they are doing, what they want to achieve and what matters at that particular moment. They will be able to work alongside people, adapt to their needs, and help turn an intention into a tangible outcome.

Using examples from research, healthcare, and mobility, Huynh demonstrated the potential of AI technology. In science, it is already helping to advance cancer research, develop new energy concepts, and accelerate discoveries. Much like electricity, AI is beginning to become a natural part of everyday life.

AI is also opening up new possibilities in the workplace: it reduces repetitive tasks and facilitates collaboration across different areas of a business. Its purpose is to complement human creativity, judgement and expertise. Open infrastructures and consistent software make it possible to develop and test AI applications securely and deploy them across an organisation. Watch the full AMD keynote from IFA 2026 here: IFA Berlin | Keynote AMD

“It was an honor to open IFA and share my vision for the Era of Personal AI and the future of imagination. We are entering a new era of computing, where AI will change not only how we use technology, but what we can imagine, create, and accomplish with it. That is what excites me most about this moment. Personal AI has the potential to make technology more intuitive, more capable, and more human, giving each of us new ways to turn our ideas into reality. We are only at the beginning of this journey, and I believe the greatest breakthroughs will come when technology expands not only what we can do, but what we dare to imagine,” says Jack Huynh, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Computing and Graphics Group at AMD.

About IFA Berlin

IFA Berlin is the world's leading event for home and consumer technologies and celebrates over a century of innovation. Since 1924, IFA Berlin has been the leading global platform where technology leaders, innovators and industry experts come together to showcase groundbreaking products and shape the future of consumer electronics.

#CruisingPeachy @IndyCar Kucharczyk Romps to Win, Johnson Captures Title in Finale

Tymek Kucharczyk got his revenge, and Nikita Johnson got the crown Sunday in the INDY NXT by Firestone season finale.

Kucharczyk ran away to victory in the second race of the Grand Prix of Monterey doubleheader in the No. 71 HMD Motorsports car one day after his title hopes in the INDYCAR development series were ended when he was hit and spun by a rival on the first lap.


“Really proud of the work,” Kucharczyk said. “Everyone on the team did amazing. Big congrats to Nikita. What can I say? ‘What if’ if yesterday didn’t happen? But nevertheless, really proud of today. We maximized what we had.”

Johnson dodged a first-lap incident in today’s 30-lap race and cruised to a distant second place in the No. 21 Cape Motorsports Powered by ECR machine to clinch the season championship and an INDYCAR SERIES career enhancement package. Johnson, from St. Petersburg, Florida, became the youngest champion in series history at 18 years, 3 months and 12 days old.

He finished 29 points ahead of season runner-up Enzo Fittipaldi in the No. 67 HMD Motorsports entry to clinch the first INDY NXT championship for longtime junior open-wheel team Cape Motorsports, owned by brothers Dominic and Nicholas Cape.

“It’s amazing,” Johnson said. “It’s good to finally show my emotions. I think a lot of people thought I was passionless, but I’m just emotionless when I drive, right? I just go out there and do the work. I’m happy that the work is done now, and I can finally go celebrate.”

Lochie Hughes rounded out the podium finishers on a sun-splashed California morning in the No. 26 Andretti Global entry.

Jacob Abel finished fourth in the No. 48 Abel Motorsports car, while Fittipaldi rounded out the top five.

For the second straight day, a first-lap incident was the major flashpoint of the race.

On Saturday, contact from Myles Rowe in the No. 99 Abel Motorsports with Force Indy machine sent Kucharczyk into a spin and to the bottom of the field on the first lap. He recovered to finish 10th, but his title hopes were over after entering the weekend third, 29 points behind leader Johnson.

In this race, Saturday winner Josh Pierson said he had an apparent mechanical malfunction while starting second that caused his No. 29 Starchive Andretti car to sputter on an upshift just past the flag stand. That hesitation led to contact from behind from the No. 12 Abel Motorsports machine of Milwaukee winner Max Garcia. Pierson’s car spun and collected the No. 10 Chip Ganassi Racing entry of Niels Koolen, and both cars careened into the gravel and were out of the race.

Johnson, who started fifth, avoided the melee that triggered the only caution period of the race and powered to second place for the only restart. Pole sitter Kucharczyk left no doubt about his intent on the restart on Lap 5, pulling away immediately.

The Polish rookie then inexorably drove away from the field, building a lead of nearly four seconds by Lap 11, five seconds by Lap 15 and 7.3 seconds by Lap 24.

Kucharczyk then cruised to his second victory of his first season of racing in North America, as he also won in May on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course. He ended up third in points, 34 behind champion Johnson, after leading all 30 laps today.

“I was pushing every lap,” Kucharczyk said. “I left nothing on the table. I’m really proud. It was an amazing year.”

After the restart, Johnson faced some pressure from Hughes. But Johnson managed the gap and showed the composed driving style that helped him earn nine podium finishes and top-10 results in all 17 races this season. He also was the only driver to complete all 656 laps this season.

“I’m happy that we got it done, and I can’t thank the Cape boys enough,” Johnson said. “They’ve always been in my corner the whole time. My whole family, everybody that supports us back home.”

#InauguralReview #Leons by #Owners #NatalieJohnson and #NickAnderer also #ExecutiveChef #Italian #Egyptian #817Broadway at 12th Street #GreenwichVillage #Manhattan

 
 
Owner and Executive Chef Nick Anderer showcases the Italian Branzino
Everyone we tell you about is the best of the best, but there are some that are just a little bit better, like Nick Anderer!  Way back in 2012 when he was a partner in Maialino, Nick worked with us and it has been far too long.  Today, drumroll please, we'd like to introduce you to his newest restaurant baby (and there is an older restaurant sibling, stay tuned): Leon's!
From the moment we walked in, gracious hospitality was effervescent and Rosemary Focaccia welcomed us beautifully to the venue named after owner Natalie Johnson's great-grandfather Leon; Leon was born in Alexandria, Egypt and raised in Naples in Southern Italy.  This concept is unique and intoxicatingly delicious; you will be amazed for days after dining at how such a singular sensation of Italian Egyptian combination has escaped everyone else in the world and be even more bowled over by exactly how they did it, particularly with the Brick Chicken Baharat.  But let's not get ahead of ourselves.
Leon's opened in November 2024 at 817 Broadway at 12th Street in Greenwich Village, and we regret not going first two years ago.  You'll discover 120 indoor seats and 24 outdoor seats, seasonally.
From every angle, the Frico Friulano with Garlic Chives are gorgeous, and the fragrant herbaceous Aperitivi is the last word in a literal warm welcome that hits the spot.  The flavor combination is victorious and this is a must to start with any time of the year.  Carpaccio di Funghi Trifolati, below, is skillfully sliced and a total bastion of sophisticated deliciousness and just smashing on a hot day to elevate your palate.  Also as you see, it is artfully arranged.
Arugula San Marco is perfectly punctuated with stone fruit: namely, red plums and is lightly dressed with a perfect composition in both quality and proportion to each other of lemon juice, olive oil and aged balsamic.  If you have read our other 31,000 posts, you know we nearly never want anyone to dress our salads because we want to taste the salad and not the dressing, however, in this case, we trust Nick to do it right and he did.  It is more than okay to order this salad dressed.
There are six pasta selections on the current menu found under Primi, of course.  
40% of the menu is signature and unchanged during the year, while the other 60% fluctuates seasonally.  Leon's is the height of competitiveness in seasonal menus, changing it MONTHLY, as in twelve times a year!  Can you hear Peachy applauding?!  They are clearly in it to win it and are an obvious choice for the discriminating diner who is the last word in Manhattan sophistication who is easily bored by lesser places.  Leon's is simply the least boring and most delicious place you haven't been to yet.
First, meet Spaghetti alla Nerano, above, inspired by the Amalfi coast.  It's ideally al dente and if you don't eat meat or fish, this has your name all over it. Zucchini caramelized is the superstar here and it's a garden of glory.
If you are an avid reader, you know there is a Peachy's Pick that has clam in the name that has a commanding presence for this next dish in Manhattan history.
Leon's Linguine alle Vongole bianco is the most competitive we have seen anywhere next to this, and note you can also have it macchiato if your little heart so desires.  This clam concoction is simply extraordinary from the sublime flavor to the clams themselves.
Note if you are new to us, you should know we never edit pictures.
You excel like Natalie and Nick, or we do not publish.
There's no need for filtering photos when you are as talented as Nick is, anyway!
The final pasta firework of our inaugural visit to Leon's was the Bucatini all'Amatriciana Estiva, which means summery fresh cherry tomato sauce!  Guanciale joins the party upping the flavor for the carnivorous among us and the Shatta says enchante to your palate!  It's an Egyptian style chili paste made on premises that you must add to your dining repertoire.  Finally, Pecorino seals in the pasta perfection.
Branzino is offered in an Italian or Egyptian style, half or whole.
We had whole Italian: olive oil roasted with potatoes, delivered every day from the Mediterranean Sea.  The freshness was brilliant and every bite was pure luxury.  Usually it is joined by an arugula salad, however since Peachy already had one, Nick created a bespoke wild mustard and green mix with heirloom cherry tomatoes of both red and green, halved.  If Peachy counted the best salads she had anywhere this season on one hand, this would be one finger.
Everyone knows we are not a one-trick pony and do not write on one discipline: we write on the concept of excellence.  We also happen to write on sports and fashion and New York Yankees: do not let Nick's fashion sense escape you and you know where to go for dinner next.
Contorni, the side section, has five choices and the Market Greens Strascinati captured our attention.
You will not find all the usual suspects here: you find nuances you will be excited about.
When you discover their innate deliciousness, you will know that this is not a venue that is all hype and trend with no substance but rather a creative, proven, remarkable homage to real quality.  Summer Cabbage captures this idea and it's the most elevated standalone vegetable you'll find in New York this season.  We don't think we've been this excited about cabbage ever without Corned Beef, and never before in the summer.
We bet you've never had Brick Chicken Baharat before; we certainly hadn't.
You need to: it is the superstar here, tantalizing our tastebuds and the chicken is sourced from Snowdance Farm.
Dull, tedious, and monotonous chickens from many other venues look upon this gem with great envy, hoping one day they will be such a singular sensation.
A charred half heritage bird with tahina and shatta (sauce) is ready to light up your life if you just go to Leon's and order it.  Its moistness is notable; it's marinated overnight in yogurt and a bespoke spice blend that yields tremendous flavor: paprika is dominant while allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove in perfect proportion sing backup as backbone flavors.  The result is pure genius and you have to have it.
You have to.
All the old paintings on the tombs
They do the sand dance don't you know?
...Foreign types with the hookah pipes say
Way-oh way-oh way-oh way-oh
Eat like an Italian Egyptian

At Leon's!

We can't wait to see what Leon's does next as we are immensely impressed.

A final firework by Leon's wife, Natalie's great-grandmother: Grand-Mere Lucie's Tarte au Citron!
Lucie was born in Alexandria and her primary language is French.
Shortbread crust, lemon curd and toasted meringue seal the deal.




Their website tells us:

Our Story

Leon’s is a neighborhood Italian restaurant with French and Egyptian accents from Natalie Johnson and Nick Anderer (also of Anton’s in the West Village). The restaurant is inspired by Natalie’s heritage (named after her great grandfather, Leon Hakim) and the couple's travels together across the Mediterranean.

Leon’s spotlights Anderer’s deep passion for Italian cuisine, as well as his thoughtful interpretations of treasured Hakim family recipes and culinary traditions passed down by way of Egypt and France. The restaurant’s beverage program, helmed by Johnson, complements and enhances the culinary offerings, highlighting winemakers, brewers, and distillers the couple and their team admire. The restaurant’s lovely, transporting design evokes the quiet, weathered beauty of an Italian seaside town, celebrates natural light, and preserves key architectural details of our building (circa 1895). The duo spent years hand-selecting the furniture, fixtures, and art that adorn the space; a dining room awash in custom plaster walls inspired by a winemaker visit in Abruzzo (designed in collaboration with Fresco Decorative Arts), sculptural lights from Vincenzo Oste at Atelier Ines in Naples, and a striking oil painting from the talented French artist Roman Cochet.

We hope to welcome you soon!

Natalie & Nick
About Natalie & Nick

Nick Anderer (Executive Chef) and Natalie Johnson (Beverage Director) are husband-and-wife co-owners of Leon's and Anton's. In the spirit of its sibling Anton’s, Leon’s hopes to become a convivial gathering place for locals and visitors alike, open from early morning until late in the evening (serving continuously from breakfast through dinner). Leon’s arrival in November 2024 coincides with the fifth anniversary of Anton's opening (November 11, 2019).

The pair met while working together at Danny Meyer’s Union Square Hospitality Group, Nick as Executive Chef and Managing Partner at both Maialino and Marta, and Natalie as a Sommelier. A native New Yorker, Nick began his culinary career working at The Water Club and Babbo, before spending a year cooking in Rome and Milan. From there, Nick joined the kitchen team of Gramercy Tavern where he served as Sous Chef to Tom Colicchio, and later Executive Sous Chef to Mike Anthony. Overall, Nick spent 15 notable years in leadership across Union Square Hospitality Group restaurants - Gramercy Tavern, Maialino, and Marta.

It was during his time at Gramercy Tavern that Nick’s deep appreciation for seasonal vegetables, and the farmers that grow them, took shape. From there, he went on to open two flagship Italian restaurants - Maialino (2009) and Marta (2014) - serving as Executive Chef and Managing Partner for both. Both restaurants separately garnered widespread praise, and each earned Two Stars from the New York Times under his leadership. In addition to numerous media accolades, Chef Nick is a two-time James Beard “Best Chef, New York City” semifinalist (2014, 2015), and has appeared as a guest chef and guest judge on various food television shows.

Natalie believes wine service should be accessible, relatable, and fun. At Leon's and Anton's, she facilitates tasting and discovery through meticulously-developed, incredibly-deep bottle lists and a truly inspired, generous by-the-glass program. Natalie oversees two distinct, thoughtfully-conceived cocktail programs that range in style from light, aromatic aperitivi, to spirit-forward riffs on classics, and a selection of playful shaken treats.

Natalie initially moved to NYC to pursue her love of restaurants as a line cook at Jim Lahey’s Co. in Chelsea. Prior to opening Anton’s, Natalie served as the Beverage Director of Loring Place, a beloved Greenwich Village restaurant from Chef Dan Kluger. Natalie created the opening wine list and later managed the entire Beverage operation for the restaurant, including the full Wine and Cocktail program. Natalie previously worked in the Front-of-House teams in several acclaimed restaurants with celebrated wine programs across the country, including Frasca (Boulder, CO), Sorella (NYC), Otto (NYC), and Marta (NYC). In 2019, Natalie was recognized as a “Rising Star Sommelier” by Star Chefs.

Natalie, Nick, and their young sons Raphael and Romeo live in the East Village, not far from where Nick grew up.

#GothamGadgets #MoverandShaker Jake Dyson Unveils A New Era of Intelligent Machines


Jake Dyson unveiled the next generation of new Dyson products, with a range of machines that incorporate advanced intelligence, signaling a fundamental shift in the way Dyson's products deliver their unique levels of performance.

Speaking at the Dyson Unveiled event in Berlin, Jake Dyson, Chief Engineer said:

Dyson CameraJet™

Dyson R3 Nurovi™ Spot+Scrub™ UV

Dyson HushJet™ Hot Cool Pure+ air purifier

Dyson W1 PencilWash™ + Dok™

Dyson Airsmooth™ dryer brush

"We've always been very focused on the mechanical engineering of a product, spending decades honing the physical way that each machine performs. Now we have shifted from purely mechanical devices to intelligent machines that can see, think, and respond. We're using artificial intelligence, vision systems, and machine learning to allow the machines to understand the environment they are operating in. The approach is the same, whether it's operating in your mouth, on your hair or around your home."

Dyson revealed 10 new products built around this new concept of intelligence, including:The Dyson CameraJet™, the first toothbrush with a camera to target the gaps and remove plaque between your teeth
The Dyson Robot Nurovi™range, featuring advanced intelligence to deliver unprecedented cleaning
The Dyson HushJet™ air purification range, with a new design that delivers powerful, quiet and intelligent air throughout the home
The Dyson W1 PencilWash™, reengineered for a mirror finish on your floors, with ultimate convenience
The Dyson Corrale Coolshine™ straightener – next generation straightening technology
The Dyson Airsmooth™, featuring patented dual-bristle technology to dry, lift and smooth with ease.
MyDyson™, our unique customer promise

The Dyson CameraJet™, the first toothbrush with a camera to target the gaps and remove plaque between your teeth.

Dyson CameraJet™ introduces a new way to brush teeth by combining brushing, targeted liquid flossing, and mouthwash dispensing in one connected device.

Developed over six years by 661 Dyson engineers, the Dyson CameraJet™ is designed to address common issues in oral care: missed interdental spaces, inconsistent flossing, and brushing that falls short of recommended routines. The system scans 28 live images per second, uses 16 million lines of code, and has been trained on over 470,000 dental images to identify and target gaps between teeth, where plaque most often builds up.

Dyson has engineered a range of new technologies for the Dyson CameraJet™: a conical jet that removes plaque more effectively while remaining gentle on gums and ename1; an anti-gravity tank that delivers controlled mouthrinse jets from any angle; a dual-bristle brush head designed to cover more of the tooth surface; and variable sonic oscillation to help prevent bristle stalling in hard-to-reach areas. The Dyson CameraJet™ is Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connected, enabling live viewing, guided cleaning, coverage mapping, personalized feedback, and customizable brushing and jetting modes through the MyDyson™ app, while images are not recorded or stored on the product or in the cloud.

Introducing the new Dyson Robot Nurovi range

The new Dyson Nurovi range brings unprecedented cleaning intelligence to the home, with Dyson innovation across the new suite of machines. Why Nurovi? Because we have combined our Neural Intelligence technology with our latest Vision system to create a range that's intelligent, highly engineered, and uniquely Dyson.

The Dyson R3 Nurovi Spot+Scrub™ UV, our most advanced wet and dry robot that reveals, identifies, and eliminates invisible stains with UV-enhanced AI2.

The new Dyson R3 Nurovi™ Spot+Scrub UV features advanced AI stain detection system combining UV light, AI vision, and green illumination to identify nearly 200 types of household substances and objects, cleaning repeatedly until stains are removed3. The self-cleaning wet roller uses a 12-point hydration system which continuously applies fresh,158°F heated water to simultaneously lift and remove stubborn stains, while self-cleaning itself on every rotation.

The Dyson R3 Nurovi™ Spot+Scrub UV maximizes cleaning potential with a full width microfiber roller that extends 1.6in (40mm) to clean right up to edges of the room, while a 30,000 Pa motor delivers 65% more suction pressure4 for powerful dry cleaning across both hard floors and carpets. The hygienic cyclonic, bagless dock automatically empties, cleans and recharges after every clean.

The Dyson R2 Nurovi™ Wash+Dry, featuring Reuleaux triangle pads with constant-width geometry to wash right into corners

Many robot mops rely on circular mopping pads, which struggle to reach right into the corners. Inspired by the Reuleaux triangle – a triangular shape formed from three circular arcs – the new Dyson Reuleaux triangle pads maintain a constant width, moving smoothly with a precise eccentric movement pattern to create a square cleaning finish that gets right into corners. And the deep cleaning is enhanced with 167°F water, heated at the dock to aid the removal of stubborn stains.

The R2 Nurovi™ also features Dyson's new Twin-capture system, which separates fine and coarse debris to maximize cleaning efficiency. Bristles on the brush bar mechanically sweep larger debris directly into the machine, reducing reliance on suction power, while the vacuum motor focuses on capturing fine dust and smaller particles. By combining mechanical pick-up with focused, powerful suction, the new Twin-capture system enables our robot vacuums to deliver more efficient and consistent cleaning performance across different debris types. Finally, the Acoustic piezo sensor intelligently detects dust levels and floor types in real time, automatically adapting suction power5 and cleaning behavior for optimal cleaning performance across different surfaces.

The Dyson R1 Nurovi™ Dry, engineered for superior cleaning results on hard floors and carpets

The new Dyson R1 Nurovi™ Dry machine features the same Twin-capture technology in the R2, with 21,000 Pa suction to deep clean dry floors. The R1 Nurovi™ Dry also shares the same redesigned side sweeper system, engineered at a precise angle, with a webbed connector that actively controls the pressure and direction of the brushes. This ensures dust and debris are guided into the airflow path in a more controlled and efficient manner, rather than being scattered, while reducing hair wrapping and tangling around the bristles. The side sweepers also extend outward to reach closer to walls and into corners, improving coverage in areas that are typically missed.

The new Dyson W1 PencilWash™+Dok™ reengineered to deliver a mirror finish with the same 'grab-and-go' convenience, now with self-cleaning

New Robots weren't the only new machines coming to Dyson's floorcare range – the Berlin event also saw the launch of the new Dyson W1 PencilWash, an upgrade on the first PencilWash wet cleaner launched in early 2026. The new W1 PencilWash has been reengineered to add a more absorbent roller and a hygienic waste system for improved performance, as well as self-cleaning technology on the dock, all in the same lighter, slimmer design for maximum cleaning convenience.

Environmental Care: The Dawn of the HushJet Era

In 2025, Dyson announced a completely new design approach with the launch of the Dyson HushJet Compact Purifier. Then in April 2026, we unveiled the same design in the Dyson HushJet Mini Cool fan, bringing the airflow power you would expect from a Dyson in a portable design that quickly sold out all around the world.

Inspired by aviation, the HushJet Nozzle applies aerospace principles of airflow control to the home. Dyson engineers studied how aircraft reduce noise whilst moving air at extreme speeds, using complex geometries to control turbulence at its source. This principle – that form can be used to control both air and sound – went on to inform how Dyson engineers approached the problem of noise caused by powerful airflow. Today, Dyson introduces the same advanced airflow technology across its range of air purifiers, heaters and coolers, bringing unprecedented levels of air projection in a new forward-facing design.

The Dyson HushJet™ Big+Quiet Cool Pure+ Formaldehyde air purifier

The largest model in the range, and Dyson's most powerful purifier, the Dyson HushJet™ Big+Quiet Cool Pure+ Formaldehyde air purifier is designed for those who want to clean multiple rooms quickly without compromise6. Using Dyson HushJet air projection engineering, the purifier achieves long range projection, enabling improved room mixing and multi-room purification.

At its core, a low pressure, high flow compressor works in combination with a three-stage filtration system that captures particulates, gases and destroys formaldehyde to deliver market-leading CADR, capturing 99.999% of pollutants as small as 0.01 microns7. All while operating quietly, for powerful purification that feels unobtrusive in everyday life.

The Dyson HushJet™ Pure Cool+ Formaldehyde air purifier

Designed as a high-performance medium-format purifier, the Dyson HushJet™ Pure Cool+ Formaldehyde air purifier delivers powerful purification in a more compact format, making it ideal for those looking to clean large spaces quickly without stepping up to a full-scale system. The new machines deliver up to 3x more powerful purification compared to its predecessors8, projecting clean air far into the room for improved whole-room purification, while providing personal cooling9.

The Dyson HushJet™ Hot Cool Pure+ air purifier

Engineered as Dyson's most powerful 3-in-1 purifier, the Dyson HushJet™ Hot Cool Pure+ air purifier brings purification, heating and personal cooling9 together in one product, designed to deliver comfort throughout the year. Ideal for spaces where thermal comfort and air quality control need to work together; it uses HushJet air projection to deliver powerful airflow that can be both heated and cooled for maximum home comfort.

Next-generation straightening technology: Corrale CoolShine™ straightener

The Corrale CoolShine™ straightener is a breakthrough in hot-plate styling that redefines how hair is straightened, shaped, and finished. Engineered with precision heat control, flexing plates and active cooling, Dyson's latest hair care innovation delivers glossy, sleek straight results with less heat damage10, and is engineered to allow for fewer passes and next-level styling control.

At the heart of Corrale Cool Shine is Dyson's first-of-its-kind cooling attachment, engineered with heat-extracting pipes that contain a precisely controlled amount of water. As heat is applied during styling, the heat-extracting pipes draw excess heat away from the hair, cooling it down as you style, and helping to reduce residual heat exposure. The result is hair that is cooler to the touch during and after styling, with a smoother, softer feel.

Paired with the pioneering flexing plate technology from the original Corrale hair straightener, this technology addresses the core compromise of hot-plate styling: achieving sleek, lasting results while reducing unnecessary heat exposure. Hair is left cooler to the touch, soft, and with up to 154% more shine versus untreated hair. Lightweight and compact, Corrale Coolshine also delivers improved maneuverability, faster styling, controlled straightening with fewer passes, and styles that last for up to 24 hours.

Faster drying, controlled styling and healthier hair: Dyson Airsmooth™ dryer brush

The Dyson Airsmooth is Dyson's first dedicated dryer brush, engineered to simplify everyday styling routines without compromising results. Bringing together Dyson's pioneering airflow technology with new PivotFlex™ and Anti-snag bristle technology, it is designed to dry, smooth and lift hair with ease, helping to create a polished natural blowout across all hair types.

At the heart of the machine is a patented dual bristle system designed to guide hair, not fight it. Anti-snag bristles use a unique looped structure that collapses to release strands with ease, reducing snagging11 and improving scalp comfort while styling. PivotFlex bristles leverage an open-base design to diffuse and control high-pressure airflow, minimizing frizz12 and hair disturbance. Flexing up to 90 degrees, the tapered profile helps hair wrap and release smoothly, creating tension without tangles. Arranged in a teardrop formation, the two bristle types work together to stretch curls and coils, reduce frizz and smooth hair from root to tip, in a single motion.

Supported by intelligent heat control that measures temperature 100 times a second, the Dyson Airsmooth helps deliver a controlled, comfortable styling experience while protecting the integrity of natural curl patterns and textures over time. Designed to stay with you, it also features universal voltage, so you can maintain a consistent, healthy styling routine wherever you are.

NEW YORK IN MONCLER WINTER RUNWAY

A Retrospective of Pioneering New York Moments

Some love stories take time. After decades of shared moments, Moncler reveals the story of its enduring relationship with New York through an expansive city-wide declaration of love.

The untold story of New York in Moncler began when snow met concrete. What could have melted instead endured, forging a love built on pioneering moments and strengthened with every chapter. They found each other, again and again. Decades later, their story is finally ready to be shared.


A Retrospective of Pioneering New York Moments. Some love stories take time. After decades of shared moments, Moncler reveals the story of its enduring relationship with New York through an expansive city-wide declaration of love.Share

Revealed through one of the largest open-air public exhibitions the city has ever seen, New York in Moncler unveils the peak moments that capture the bond between New York and Moncler, transforming communal spaces across the city into a powerful retrospective gallery from September 9-13.

New York in Moncler is a very public display of affection; large-scale photographs will showcase unforgettable experiences born from more than twenty years of close collaboration and cultural exchange. Unfolding in a city-wide takeover, the exhibition culminates in a dedicated space within Grand Central Terminal’s Vanderbilt Hall.

The moments on display have shaped the brand’s evolution and helped establish the creative language that defines Moncler today: alpine-inspired design, not only celebrated as technical mountain apparel, but also as a global metropolitan symbol of style, protection, and human connection.

These landmark memories are further celebrated in a film released today, September 3, that brings to life the secret love story between Moncler and New York. Moving through special moments that have shaped the relationship over time – from shows and campaigns to the connections between the city, its people and Moncler – the film becomes a visual expression of this bond. Narrated by iconic New Yorker and close friend of the brand Alicia Keys, who passionately voices the story over her unreleased new music, it captures a relationship that continues to evolve.

Together, these milestones established New York as a Moncler muse – a city where Moncler demonstrated that fashion could deliver performance, provide a platform for creativity, and create shared cultural experiences.

A new chapter in the love affair is about to begin.

Just steps from Grand Central Terminal, Moncler will unveil its largest-ever global flagship, Moncler Fifth Avenue. The new location represents the latest in a series of highs, the ultimate expression of the love between city and brand – and a bricks-and-mortar embodiment of an incomparable connection. A space where the next decades of Moncler’s New York dreams can come true.

New York in Moncler will be on display at Grand Central Terminal's Vanderbilt Hall and across New York City from September 9–13. Works on display include:

A Hudson Hike
Chelsea Pier, 2010
Moncler’s New York ascent began with the transformation of the iconic riverside site into an urban mountain, as 100 Moncler Grenoble-clad models scaled scaffolding in an immersive Fashion Week moment.

A Grand Groove
Grand Central Terminal, 2011
Grand Central Terminal’s Main Concourse became a surprise runway for Moncler Grenoble’s Fall/Winter New York Fashion Week presentation. 140 dancers, clad in technical alpine wear, captivated commuters with a synchronized performance.

A Central Skate
Central Park, 2012
Professional skaters, wearing red, white, and blue, took to Central Park’s Wollman Rink in a large-scale ice performance for Moncler Grenoble’s Fashion Week moment, accompanied by a live orchestra of New York musicians.

A Gotham Forest
Gotham Hall, 2013
Moncler Grenoble transformed New York’s Gotham Hall into an immersive installation, recreating a sense of the alpine outdoors in the heart of Manhattan with a tiered ‘Inner Forest’ formation of nearly 370 green-clad models.

A Ballroom Ballad
Hammerstein Ballroom, 2014
New York's iconic music venue became a monumental performance machine, blending alpine vocal tradition with engineered choreography for the Moncler Grenoble Fall/Winter fashion show.

Midtown Mountains

Embodying the brand’s defining concept of a universal jacket that transcends seasons, trends, and borders, the image blurs the lines between mountain summit and the soaring skyscraper.

Art For Love
New York Public Library, 2015

Moncler’s Art For Love project, an initiative developed in support of amfAR, was presented at the New York Public Library during Fashion Week. Curated by Fabien Baron, the project invited 32 photographers to reinterpret Moncler’s iconic Maya jacket, transforming it from a functional garment into a canvas for a broader dialogue between fashion, photography, and philanthropy.

Image 1: Studiocat by American photographer Brigitte Lacombe presented an unexpected protagonist, turning the jacket into both protective cocoon and theatrical frame – a witty, character-driven interpretation of Moncler’s most recognisable silhouette.

Image 2: Camilla Åkrans’ A Surrealist Portrait with Flowers features a model enveloped by a dense floral arrangement, with the Maya jacket woven into a dreamlike composition. Known for her expressive portraiture and evocative use of natural elements, Åkrans transformed the functional garment into a poetic image that reflects her signature visual language of femininity, romance, and nature.

All Together
Lincoln Center, 2016
Moncler Grenoble’s landmark Fall/Winter New York Fashion Week presentation, staged in polar-vortex conditions, transformed the frozen plaza into a live performance stage.

Spotlighting an eclectic cast, the feature celebrated the versatility and effortless appeal of Moncler’s iconic puffers, presented in a range of vibrant shades and distinctive finishes.

Winter Runway
Sarah Jessica Parker, 2023
Originally co-created with Pierpaolo Piccioli for Moncler Genius in 2019, this couture-inspired puffer gown gained renewed cultural prominence in 2023. Worn by Sarah Jessica Parker, Piccioli's design evolved from a runway experiment into a pop-culture emblem of New York winter.

A State of Mind
Alicia Keys, 2023
The cultural trailblazer and global icon’s co-created Moncler x Alicia Keys collection revisits personal memories of ‘90s New York, inspired by the possibility of the city’s concrete jungle. Oversized silhouettes, technical textures, and bold color, including Keys’ own signature purple, channel the sporty, magnetic energy of the streets that raised her.

SoHo Style
Penn Badgley, 2025
Shot on the storied streets of SoHo, the Moncler Collection Spring 2025 campaign starred acclaimed actor and New Yorker Penn Badgley, embodying a distinctly laid-back yet sophisticated take on metropolitan style.

The Red Carpet

Moncler made its debut on fashion's most fabulous stage alongside friend of the brand Edward Enninful – iconic editor, stylist, and cultural contributor. Inspired by the evening's theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, supermodel Vittoria Ceretti wore a tailored mini dress crafted from navy pinstriped wool and sculpted into a corseted silhouette with a dramatic train. An iconic Moncler down cape, crowned with an extravagant hood, completed the look.

Sun in the City
Fei Fei Sun, 2025
New York-based model Fei Fei Sun wears a look from Edward Enninful's debut collection as a designer, Moncler x EE72 by Edward Enninful.

Warmer Together
A Celebration of Friendship, 2025
Shot on the rooftops of New York, two chairs stood as symbols of connection before lifelong friends and cinematic legends Robert De Niro and Al Pacino took their seats. Together, they embodied love, warmth, and mutual respect in the global Warmer Together campaign.

On Stage
Rockefeller Center, 2025
Tobe Nwigwe brought an intimate yet rousing live performance to New York’s iconic Rockefeller Center in celebration of Moncler’s Warmer Together campaign.
