We're inching ever closer to the holiday break now, but that doesn't mean the fashion moments and news are slowing down with us. We've got arts-inspired and blue-hue inspired high jewellery collection releases, and a New Zealand fashion House is setting up their first-ever Aussie summer pop up shop. We've got a Melbourne label's boutique getting an Italian bakery take over, and an iconic Aussie denim brand opening the doors of their new brick-and-mortar location in Victoria. There's a new behind-the-scenes documentary to watch about a French Maison's recent runway show, and a retrospective taking place at Miami Art Basel spotlighting one of the work of a prolific architect with one of the world's biggest fashion houses.

For all the fashion moments you might have missed this week, read on.

The collection is inspired by the hues of the French Riviera, where designer Fred Samuel was immediately captivated by the region's unique light, and the palette of the Mediterranean Sea – azure and aquatic blue colours revealed in a thousand ever-changing shades as the sun traces an arc in the sky.
