The new week is here and with it comes the chance to delve deep into some fresh culture and fashion. Here’s your latest look at the i-D Guide.
Wear… Bottega Veneta earrings
SSENSE just added a whole bunch of Bottega earrings (from £360) to their site, just in time for you to forward these links to your parents/siblings/significant others/sugar daddies. Opulence! Buy them all here.
Buy… everything from the Aries sample sale
Sample sale season is upon us and the latest to pop up in London is that of cult streetwear brand turned industry favourite (and former i-D merch collaborator), Aries. Taking over their Soho store basement from 24 – 26 November, they’ll be flogging looks from past seasons for as little as 30% of the original price. Not sure how to do a sample sale properly? No problemo, study our helpful guide ahead of time.
Listen to… Kilu
A new east London lad whose ambient heartbreak music has skyrocketed on TikTok. Early days but exciting. If you’re waiting to hear Timmy’s take on Bob Dylan, here’s another bilingual, curly haired man who looks awfully similar, and can also sing very well. Follow his TikTok here and stream the cinematic new track “Out of the Picture (Pt.1)” above.
Watch… Residency
A “metafictional” take on the art world and women’s place within it, Winnie Cheung’s punkish film Residency is born at the half-way point between documentary and horror. A long time i-D collaborator, this energetic new work has been hailed “a concise and concentrated evil diamond”, and if you missed it at any of its many screenings at a number of lauded film festivals this year, you still have a few more chances. Catch it in Portland, Maine and Miami, Florida before the year is out. More ticketing information is available on the Residency website here.
Go to… Are You Seeing Anyone? by Anya Gorkova
Tired of dating? Run down by the endless malaise of trying to find ‘the one’? Anya Gorkova has note that collective sense of disdain and, from it, made a new exhibition that aims to scour beneath the surface of human connection. Creating abstract photograms of a ‘boyfriend,’ ‘girlfriend’ and ‘theyfriend’, the exhibition also asks participants to take part in a survey about their dating life, and offers them the option to listen to a playlist curated by Anya on an old-school walkman. There’s also a garment, custom made by Sinéad O’Dwyer in honour of the exhibition’s themes, on display. The exhibition opens at South Parade on 23 November.
