A staccato wrap-up of last week!
WROTE the autumn version of my most popular newsletter so far! THE AUTUMN CAPSULE GUIDE is *the* ultimate edit of timeless layers, rich textures, and everyday staples you’ll want on repeat all season. Discover 250+ pieces across 8 categories (outerwear, shoes, trousers… you name it) that will carry you through autumn here!
GETTING READY for Berlin Art Week, happening next week (10–14 September). Find all the participating artists, galleries, and events here.


OBSESSED with the latest paparazzi shots of Zoë Kravitz. Somehow her style just keeps levelling up. Especially love this look where she’s carrying the raffia bag by The Row.
BOOKMARKED this recipe for crispy cheese smashed sweet potatoes. They look soooo good.
FELL IN LOVE with the Épure Tote by Longchamp when I saw Alexa Chung carrying it in black (still can’t find that version online…). But whoever seeks shall find – and I’m on the hunt.
HAD a pretty uneventful week – basically just work work work work work (*insert Rihanna’s voice*). You can feel it though: the city, the industry, the people are all coming back from the summer break. Busy season incoming.
FOLLOWED Chloe Malle, the newly appointed top editor of Vogue US. Whoop! The start of a new era.
WORE my beloved COS sweater from the men’s section, COS trousers in chocolate brown, Chanel ballet flats, my Mark Cross – and hair that’s desperately in need of a cut.
Have a wonderful rest of the weekend!
Lots of love,
Franzi
