The Agenda: Piaget’s New E-Boutique Offers Personal Shoppers, Dior Mens’ Capsule Collection For Hot Dads, And Other Things You Need To Know

01 | Piaget’s new digital boutique offers personal shoppers and video consultations

Online shopping can feel a mite impersonal at times, especially for something as intimate as jewellery. That’s why Piaget introduced their new e-boutique service, which provides guests with a team of dedicated professionals from Piaget — they’re available via video or conference call to walk you through the brand’s sumptuous offerings. The new service also provides complimentary delivery for any purchase on the site.

Piaget even has plans for a virtual boutique in the pipeline, where guests can experience a lifelike shopping experience without actually needing to be physically present in store. How’s that for technology?

02 | Geek out with Swarovski’s new range of crystal gifts

The Star Wars series might not be the best place for upstanding father figures, but we love it all the same. If you know of any aspiring Jedi-slash-Sith to be, then Swarovski’s latest collection has just the thing. Here, Darth Vader comes crafted in black crystal with 551 facets, while the ever-helpful C-3PO is made with a crystal base and 537 sparkling facets.

Not a fan? The collection also brings with it some very on-trend stackable bracelets, masculine pendants, and sophisticated cufflinks for that special someone in your life.

03 | Upgrade dad’s wardrobe with Dior Mens’ Father’s Day collection

Dad fashion shouldn’t just be limited to khaki cut-offs and uncle sandals. Make your dad feel like the gentleman he is with Dior Mens Father’s Day capsule: replete with classic navies and monochromes, the collection offers up approachable pieces like polo shirts, utility jackets and some very good pairs of jeans.   

It’s the accessories that make the collection come to life, with crossbody bags and bumbags emblazoned with the Dior monogram. But the standout is undoubtedly the collection’s two pairs of Dior monogrammed sneakers — who says dads can’t be hypebeasts?

04 | Get summer-ready skin with Chanel’s exclusive new makeup collection

Taking a jaunt down the French Riviera might still be a ways away — but Chanel’s Summer Of Glow makeup collection certainly brings the vaycay vibes straight to you. Chief on the list is the limited edition Les Beiges Healthy Glow Gel Touch Foundation, which lends an irresistibly dewy, sun-kissed glow to any complexion. The special case also features the iconic double C logo in a rolled sailor’s rope.

Meanwhile, lip and eye shades are illuminated by coral shimmers and other summer ready shades meant to impart a luminous look that will last long into the day.

05 | Valentino’s Fall 20 collection makes pottery sexy

There’s something undeniably sentimental about pottery — its motifs are often achingly delicate and intricate, and yet, they can withstand scorching temperatures and emerge looking poised to perfection. 

And that’s where Valentino takes inspiration for their Fall 20 collection. Bluegrace is inspired by the aesthetic of the Dutch method of pottery, Delft, whose gentle blue-and-white tones and botanical designs drew inspiration from ancient Chinese porcelain. Expect to see the motifs on flowy dresses, structured bags, and a host of other pieces perfect for both day and night.
