Amy Powney, former creative director of Mother of Pearl, launches AKYN—her slow, soulful answer to luxury fashion. In this review, we explore her debut collection of thoughtfully crafted essentials: bi-colour trenches, cable-knit jumpers, tailored suits, and fringe-hem tees. Ethical, intentional, and deeply modern, AKYN feels like a manifesto for the future of slow luxury.

In the shifting tides of fashion, where transparency rivals tailoring and ethics are as prized as aesthetics, a new vanguard of luxury has emerged. These are the brands redefining indulgence—not through logos or excess, but through values, craftsmanship, and vision.

Earth Day is no longer a moment. It’s a movement. What once was a once-a-year environmental reflection has now evolved into a cultural shift—especially in the world of luxury. The modern luxury consumer isn’t just seeking beauty or status—they’re seeking meaning. And that’s where sustainable luxury steps in.
