Stone Island Blends Nature, Utility and Fabric Innovation for SS26
Summary Stone Islandrecently debuted itsSpring/Summer 2026 collectionin a showroom presentation duringMilan Fashion Week, offering an up-close look at key pieces from the lookbook. Drawing inspiration from Mono Lake — a 760,000-year-old natural habitat that supplies Los Angeles with drinking water — the collection explores the contrasts and connections between nature and the city. Through a palette of earth tones and aquatic hues, the line reflects themes of utility, adaptation and survival, capturing the relationship between human life and the natural world. Fabric innovation is at the core of the collection, marked by standout pieces such as a hand-sprayed reflective nylon jacket, heat-reactive metallic outerwear and double-waxed ripstop shirts. New knitwear treatments, waxed leather finishes and pigment-coated cotton add texture and depth, while continued experimentation with quilting, wax layering and faded camouflage through overdyeing pushes the material narrative further. The silhouettes are engineered with structure in mind, offering sculptural shapes that emphasize volume and contrast across garments. Stone Island's signature sub-lines – Ghost, Marina, Stellina and Denim Research – advance with fresh interpretations. Ghost introduces a new 'Corteccia' colorway, inspired by worker leather gloves, alongside suede workwear staples. Marina revisits its nautical roots through archival silhouettes made from slubbed cotton and garment-dyed nylon. Stellina draws from solar energy and desert tones, anchored by aGORE-TEXjacket finished with scuba neoprene detailing that balances function and design. Denim Research evolves with enzyme-bleached indigo, oxford nylon dyed to resemble denim and silicone elbow patches inspired by archival '80s pieces. Altogether, the collection reflects Stone Island's ongoing dedication to technical craftsmanship and material storytelling, designed to elevate the modern wardrobe.

Related: It all started when they spoke about Jimmy Fallon's recent admission that he struggles with knowing that 'not everyone is rooting for you and some people want you to fail.'

'No. No, I don't,' Goldberg shared as the audience clapped. Related: 'Because nobody can make me feel worse about myself than I can do to me. So I don't need you, who don't know me, talking any crap to me, because you don't know anything,' Goldberg continued. 'So why am I taking time to be hurt by something you say, when either you don't listen, or you are choosing to take this the way you want to take it?' The Ghost star then concluded, saying, 'None of us start out to step in poop. But, we are in poop constantly, because people decide that you've said something that you didn't say.'

I've searched for years for a comfortable all-day shoe, no matter if it's working those long 12-hour shifts, long walks or runs, or just to wear daily, no matter the reason. THIS is the shoe. I highly recommend it because my painful feet no longer hurt me as long as I wear these daily. I will be purchasing more colors only in the GHOST 16 NEUTRAL. Thank you, Brooks, for making a shoe that truly helps alleviate pain.' —Jessica'I have never worn Brooks, and these were super comfortable right out of the box. I walk 8 miles per day on average, and these have been a great addition to my rotation. So far, I have only used on flat, well-maintained trails. I have somewhat wide feet and these have fit fine (if you have really wide feet, they could be too narrow).' —DB'I love these! I don't think I realized how worn out my old shoes were until I put these on. The support and traction/slip resistance are great, and I'm obsessed with the color. I am a nurse working long hospital shifts, and Brooks Ghosts are my favorite — my Danskos, ASICS, and Brooks Trace all sit in the closet, abandoned when I head out for work. I haven't had any problems with plantar fasciitis since switching to these, and I think my knees might even hurt a little less. I work with kids, and the wild colors are a big hit. Definitely would recommend!' —Soda Pop'I have super wide feet, so it's always really hard for me to find shoes that fit and that don't hurt my feet after a few hours of wear. I purchased the x-wide and they are the first shoes I've tried that don't make my feet feel squished. I've worn them all day, and they required no breaking in. I just wish the x-wide was offered in more colors!' —Me'Brooks never disappoints. And in this case, exceeded my expectations. Typically, I carry my weight on the inside of my foot, so my feet turn inwards. The arch support is so good that I don't have to correct that anymore. Great for walking/running. Very comfortable and supportive without looking geriatric.' —Amy E. Wright Get them from Amazon for $99.95+ (available in women's sizes 5–13, men's sizes 7–13, and a variety of colors).

'Beautiful' £19 perfume set is 'great for taking on holidays'
The Ghost Goodie Bag is currently on offer for £19.09, and not only gets customers a selection of travel-friendly perfumes, but also a cute drawstring pouch to keep them in While some perfume fans prefer to stick to one signature scent, others enjoy rotating their fragrance collection to suit their mood. And Amazon is currently selling a gift set that gets shoppers six different scents for £3.18 each. The Ghost Goodie Bag is currently on offer for £19.09, and not only gets customers a selection of travel-friendly perfumes, but also a cute drawstring pouch to keep them in. According to the retailer, more than 200 of the bags have sold on Amazon in the last month, having proven popular with holidaymakers and early Christmas shoppers. Inside there are three 10ml bottles, including Whitelight Eau De Parfum, Deep Night Eau De Parfum and Daydream Eau De Parfum. There's also three 5ml bottles - Purity Eau De Parfum, Ghost The Fragrance Eau De Parfum and Sweetheart Eau De Parfum. For those looking for similar discovery sets, the Maison Margiela Memory Box, at Sephora, is the perfect way to trial or gift some of Maison Margiela's best-selling Replica fragrances. The set is composed of 10 x 2ml minis, totalling 20ml, each of which are designed to evoke different memories. The unisex scents include the likes of Lazy Sunday Morning, Jazz Club and Beach Walk. Currently reduced to £30.60, it's much more affordable than buying a 30ml bottle for £62. Alternatively, the Charlotte Tilbury Fragrance Collection Of Emotions Perfume Travel Trio Set, is available for £48 at Space NK. In the Ghost set, there's a total of 45ml of fragrance for under £20. A 50ml bottle of Ghost would typically cost between £40 and £45 at Boots, so it works out around half price, but with the benefit of variety and not being married to one bottle. The set currently boasts a 4.7 star rating on the online retailer's website. One shopper said: 'I'm so very happy with this product. You get a lovely bag the size of a make up bag with six little bottles of perfume inside. They all come in velvet bags inside the bag. All of the perfume smells beautiful. You get 3 bigger bottles and 3 smaller bottles. It's a beautiful gift to yourself or somebody else and I will buy one of these again in the future. Great for taking on holiday to put a few of your bits in along with the little bottles of perfume.' One thoughtful customer commented: 'Asked the girls in work to put their hand in the lovely bag to pull a smaller bag out. These were used as a kind gesture, to say thank you for a tough week. The ladies loved them and were so happy, absolutely great idea and will definitely buy again.' A third knocked a star off for the lids, writing: 'Great option before committing to a full size and great to drop them in your bag/pocket. The only negative point is that the little bottles don't have a screwing lid. It's just a pop one. Slight concern about them leaking or the liquid going everywhere when opened.' 'I love this little perfume collection,' said another, 'It comes in a lovely bag. Each perfume is in its own little bag and is perfect for carrying in your handbag. They smell great too. I've bought some as Christmas gifts.' The deal comes ahead of Amazon Prime Day, which runs from July 8 - 11 this year. It goes to show you don't necessarily need to wait until the event to bag a bargain, however, the discount days will see a number of offers across perfume and beauty, so it's well worth keeping an eye on. Shoppers can take a look at the Ghost Goodie Bag here.

I review running shoes and the one I always suggest to beginners is reduced in the early Prime Day sales
I've been reviewing running shoes for a decade and one of the things I've learned over the years is there is no perfect shoe; all of them have different strengths and weaknesses that make them best suited to certain types of runner. When you've been running for a while, you learn what the best running shoes for you are, but when you're a beginner, you don't really have any way of knowing. There are some very safe options though, that offer a lot of comfort and protection in particular, and these are the kind of running shoes I always recommend to new runners. Brooks is a brand that excels at making these shoes, and the Brooks Ghost is one I frequently highlight as a great beginner running shoe. I don't tend to recommend the latest model of the Ghost though, because there are often great deals available on the previous version and the shoe doesn't usually change a lot with each new generation. That's the case right now, because the Brooks Ghost 16 is just $99 at Amazon. That's one of the best early Prime Day deals you can get right now. The Ghost 16 is a cushioned running shoe that's great for all levels of runner, but particularly good for beginners because of the high level of comfort it offers. The Ghost 17 recently launched but having tested both the Ghost 16 and 17, I'd say grabbing the older shoe for $40 less in the sales is the smart move, because the new shoe isn't a major update. There are several reasons why the Brooks Ghost 16 is a great option for new runners. It's comfortable without being so cushioned underfoot as to feel unstable, and it has a balanced, neutral ride that works well for a wide range of running styles. It's fairly versatile too, so can handle faster workouts while also protecting the legs well on easy and long runs, and its built like a tank, with a thick outsole and sturdy upper fabric, so you can be sure it will last you a lot of miles. The Ghost 16 is also a comfortable walking shoe and a good option for those on their feet all day, so it will have use outside of your runs, and it comes in a huge range of colors, all of which seem to be reduced in the Amazon sale. I have been testing out the Brooks Ghost 17 lately and while it has some updates on the Ghost 16, including a little more cushioning underfoot, the performance is largely the same and saving $40 by opting for the older shoe is what I'd do. It's also worth saying that the Ghost 16 is not just a great shoe for beginners — runners of all levels will find it a reliable daily trainer, so don't delay in jumping on this deal if you're in need of a new cushioned running shoe.
