Now, diver Daley is bringing the cozy, chunky cables of wool right to you with the launch of his own brand, Made With Love by Tom Daley. Included in this launch are 15 knitting kits for all levels of expertise, each one complete with needles, biodegradable pure wool yarn and patterns. Get your hands on the first launch (named 1896 after the year of the inaugural modern Olympics), and choose from kits that range from jumpers and cardigans to accessories and novelty items.

Paris fashion museum, The Palais Galliera, is hosting an exhibit that honours the life of renowned designer Alber Elbaz. Mimicking Paris Fashion Week’s October 5 tribute show that was organized by the fashion industry (46 fashion houses and designers, both established and emerging, came together to create pieces inspired by the man and his prolific legacy) to pay homage to Elbaz, the exhibit will immerse visitors in a full runway experience, exactly recreating the unforgettable night in fashion history. From the order on the runway, to the music, effects and lights, expect to see the Love Brings Love presentation just as it showed live two months ago. If you’re travelling to France between March 5 and July 10, 2022, capitalize on the one-of-a-kind opportunity to relish in the flowing gowns, long trains, dresses with ruffles, big bows and printed drawings of Elbaz.
