US footwear label Sorel has become the latest brand to link up with collab-happy Aries, the London-based luxury streetwear brand.

The pair are unveiling a limited edition capsule collection that “fuses Sorel’s rugged, performance-driven design with Aries’ bold, counter-culture aesthetic”.

The centerpiece of the collaboration is the Sorel x Aries ‘Callsign Horizon’, a silhouette inspired by the Caribou boot. It marks Aries’ as the first-ever partner to work on this particular silhouette, “merging utilitarian craftsmanship with statement-making style”. 

The footwear features a unique removeable zip-off micro shroud with bungee cord closure, waterproof Gore-Tex upper and Vibram molded outsole for traction.

The partnership also includes a limited-run of the collab’s Premium Aged Zip-Through Hoodie, made in premium heavy 480gsm brushed-back cotton jersey fleece. It features a two-way zip and ‘Sorel Bear’ graphic screen print on the hood and ‘Aries Temple’ on the back zip pocket. There’s also a matching knitted Beanie, with a co-branded silicone temple patch.

Sorel president Cory Long said: “This collaboration captures the energy and rebellious spirit that Aries brings to streetwear, while staying true to Sorel’s commitment to durability and performance.

“It’s been exciting to see how Aries has reinterpreted our functional silhouette with striking detailing, premium materials, and an edge that challenges convention.”

Sofia Prantera, founder and creative director of Aries, added: “This partnership… presents a unique opportunity to converge Aries’ DNA of quiet rebellion and subculture influence with Sorel’s rich heritage in performance footwear. The result is an elevated expression of the Callsign Horizon that feels authentic to both brands — refined, bold, and built for the way people really live.”

The collection has just launched via both brands’ websites and selected retailers including Kith, FWRD and Shoe Gallery in the US, End in the UK, and BSTN in Germany.

Aries has become a collab specialist with links to brands including Yoox, Tommy Jeans, KCF, Arsenal, Le Specs and Crocs over the last two years.

Cosmetics giant Unilever finalises business demerger

The demerger of Unilever‘s ice cream division, to be named ‘The Magnum Ice Cream Company,’ which had been delayed in recent months by the US government shutdown, will finally go ahead on Saturday, the British group announced.

Reuters

Unilever said in a statement on Friday that the admission of the new entity’s shares to listing and trading in Amsterdam, London, and New York, as well as the commencement of trading… is expected to take place on Monday, December 8.

The longest federal government shutdown in US history, from October 1 to November 12, fully or partially affected many parts of the federal government, including the securities regulator, after weeks without an agreement between Donald Trump‘s Republicans and the Democratic opposition.

Unilever, which had previously aimed to complete the demerger by mid-November, warned in October that the US securities regulator (SEC) was “not in a position to declare effective” the registration of the new company’s shares. However, the group said it was “determined to implement in 2025” the separation of a division that also includes the Ben & Jerry’s and Cornetto brands, and which will have its primary listing in Amsterdam.

“The registration statement” for the shares in the US “became effective on Thursday, December 4,” Unilever said in its statement. Known for Dove soaps, Axe deodorants and Knorr soups, the group reported a slight decline in third-quarter sales at the end of October, but beat market expectations.

Under pressure from investors, including the activist fund Trian of US billionaire Nelson Peltz, to improve performance, the group last year unveiled a strategic plan to focus on 30 power brands. It then announced the demerger of its ice cream division and, to boost margins, launched a cost-saving plan involving 7,500 job cuts, nearly 6% of the workforce. Unilever’s shares on the London Stock Exchange were steady on Friday shortly after the market opened, at 4,429 pence.

Traditional and occasion wear designer Puneet Gupta has stepped into the world of fine jewellery with the launch of ‘Deco Luméaura,’ a collection designed to blend heritage and contemporary aesthetics while taking inspiration from the dramatic landscapes of Ladakh.

“For me, Deco Luméaura is an exploration of transformation- of material, of story, of self,” said Puneet Gupta in a press release. “True luxury isn’t perfect; it is intentional. Every piece is crafted to be lived with and passed on.”

The jewellery collection features cocktail rings, bangles, chokers, necklaces, and statement evening bags made in recycled brass and finished with 24 carat gold. The stones used have been kept natural to highlight their imperfect and unique forms and each piece in the collection has been hammered, polished, and engraved by hand.

Designed to function as wearable art pieces, the colourful jewellery echoes the geometry of Art Deco while incorporating distinctly South Asian imagery such as camels, butterflies, and tassels. Gupta divides his time between his stores in Hyderabad and Delhi and aims to bring Indian artistry to a global audience while crafting a dialogue between designer and artisan.
