Bvlgari Resort Bodrum is opening in Turkey this 2026

Once home to the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, Bodrum still remains a place to be at in the Mediterranean. Even more so, when the Bvlgari Resort Bodrum opens this 2026 on a 60-hectare peninsula on the Türkbükü-Gölköy coast. The resort, enveloped by 100 Bvlgari-branded mansions, will offer 84 rooms and suites, with the 800-sqm Bvlgari Villa as the crown jewel. Guests will enjoy panoramic sea views, an extensive range of facilities, a private beach equipped with water sports, and more.

Panerai, famous for its early innovations in the field of luminescence, enlightens us once again with the Submersible Elux LAB-ID PAM01800. Founded on the legacy of the Elux, a patented technology (1966) that was significant to the Italian Navy, the fully mechanical PAM01800 packs a punch within a 49mm case: a four patent system, 500m water resistance, dedicated energy-storing barrels, and on-demand lighting for as long as 30 minutes. Only 150 pieces will be made, with 50 pieces available annually. Yours for S$142,700.

The Gucci autumn/winter 2024 men’s campaign

Gucci just revealed the AW24 collection with a campaign shot by David Sims. Rejecting the notion of fashion as uniform, it pays tribute to the human expression, where every glance and gesture has a story to tell, and brings the collection to life through a cast of distinctive personalities. Through their unique perspectives, Gucci celebrates beauty with individuality and invites the rest of us to explore and embrace our true selves, dressed in a vibrant canvas of ever-contemporary wardrobe staples, of course. The collection will be launched in stores worldwide this July.
