other · 2026-08-13

In a recent feature by Monocle, four prominent figures in fashion and design shared insights into their summer attire. Jayden Ali (37, New York/London), an architect, opts for comfort with woollen pinstripe shorts from Assembly, a white vest, a silky shirt from Acne Studios, complemented by a gold chain and a wedding band pendant. Stefani Stoyanof (41, Athens), a jewellery designer, favors a Lido bathing suit, pareo, Bermuda shorts, a button-down shirt, Thistles sunglasses, jelly shoes, and a straw hat, emphasizing linen and cotton. Fashion designer Patrick Johnson (45, Sydney) showcases unstructured jackets and light linen trousers paired with Belgian Shoes loafers, while Duda Lopes (30, Barcelona) wears a Thomaz shirt and matching trousers, planning to present Sage's new collection at Copenhagen Fashion Week in August.
