Underlena Unveils Debut Lingerie Line Rooted in Comfort, Sensuality and Intention

Wellington-based lingerie studio Underlena has just launched its first in-house underwear line – a refined trio of black briefs designed with wearability and sensuality at heart. After quietly curating a loyal following through its boutique and online store, known for stocking thoughtful, independent lingerie labels, founder Maxine Kelly brings Underlena’s philosophy full circle with a debut collection that’s minimal yet deeply considered. Made from breathable, antimicrobial Tencel Lyocell and ethically produced in Portugal, the Brief ($49), String Bikini ($49), and Thong ($47) come in sizes XS to XXL, with each style refined through months of real-world wear-testing. Shot at Kelly’s family home in Muriwai and featuring her mother as a model, the campaign captures the brand’s signature intimacy and ease.

The collection is available now at underlena.com and at the Ghuznee Street store in Te Aro, Wellington.

Converse Revives Two Archive Icons in Tyler, The Creator’s 1908 Collection

Converse dives into its 120-year design legacy with the launch of the 1908 Collection, a new archive-inspired line reimagined by Tyler, The Creator. First to drop are two silhouettes drawn from deep within Converse’s vault: the Naut-1 and Coach Jogger, both modernised with fresh colour-ways and upgraded detailing while staying true to their original DNA. The Naut-1, originally inspired by Converse’s early 20th-century nautical styles, returns with canvas uppers, quick-dry sponge detailing, and grippy herringbone soles, now arriving in Starlight Blue and Cannoli Cream. Meanwhile, the Coach Jogger, a 1976 jogging-era classic rooted in Converse’s performance heritage, is re-released in Forest Shade, Bistre, and Quiet Tide, complete with its signature wedge sole and wraparound heel support. With this debut, Tyler offers a bold vision for Converse’s past – and its future.

Lorna Jane Taps Sam Guggenheimer for Effortless ‘Cool-Girl’ Winter Dressing Campaign

Lorna Jane’s latest campaign is all about mastering the art of looking put-together with minimal effort – and they’ve enlisted Australian content creator and style muse Sam Guggenheimer to show us how it’s done. A go-to influencer for sporty-meets-street style, Sam steps out in the brand’s winter collection, proving that activewear isn’t just for the gym. Think tonal matching sets, elevated outerwear, and pieces you can mix and match all week long – like the dusty rose Heritage Bomber Jacket and Flashdance Pants, or the rich cocoa Spray Jacket  with matching Varsity Pants. With throwback logo sweats, sleek full-length leggings, and cropped tanks styled under classic coats, the edit blends function and polish for everyday ease. As Sam puts it, reaching for a matching set is the ultimate cheat code – making this the winter uniform for cool girls everywhere.

ASICS Teams Up with Temptation Vacation for Coastal-Inspired GEL-DS Trainer 14

ASICS SportStyle has joined forces with Australian fashion label Temptation Vacation to reimagine the GEL-DS Trainer 14 through a nostalgic, vacation-inspired lens. Channelling the laidback freedom of weekends spent along Australia’s coastline, the limited-edition sneaker blends earthy neutrals with vibrant accents to reflect the country’s rich landscapes. Sandy beige mesh and forest green overlays nod to the bush-meets-beach scenery, while a bold blue sole hints at the surrounding ocean. The textured upper – crafted from a mix of leather and synthetic fibres – mirrors the variety of adventures one might experience on a summer getaway. Underfoot, ASICS’ signature GEL cushioning and TRUSSTIC support system ensure performance-level comfort, whether you’re on the move or just chasing that off-duty energy. It’s the perfect fusion of heritage sportstyle and Aussie escapism.

Moochi Drops ‘Palette Three: Ode’ – A Lush, Layered Tribute to Texture and Print

Moochi’s latest seasonal offering, Palette Three: Ode, arrives June 18 with a striking curation of coordinated pieces that celebrate texture, print, and modern femininity. The third release in the brand’s 2025 series, Ode leans into rich tonal palettes – camel, khaki, midnight teal, and deep indigo – balanced by soft hues and playful prints. Statement-making details like pixelated snake prints on lustrous viscose, fringed kimonos, and oversized striped shirting bring edge and elegance to everyday silhouettes. Technical tailoring, fully fashioned knitwear, and reimagined co-ords underpin a collection that is both relaxed and refined.

With textural intrigue as its signature, the range also introduces new shapes through Moochi’s Six & Seven sublabel: think cocoon skirts in cotton drill, piped tracksuiting, and oxford pique denim tunics. Footwear is equally considered, with shield-shaped wedges and strappy heels designed to ground the collection’s easy sophistication. From layered chiffon and polka dots to tactile knits and gathered trenches, Ode is a wearable tribute to individuality and timeless dressing – with new arrivals dropping weekly online and in stores.
