Quiet Indulgence
Created 70 years ago, Rouge Dior has been a makeup mainstay. Now, through the vision of Peter Philips, creative and image director for Dior Makeup, the iconic makeup staple is available in a lacquer finish. Combining a longer- wear formula with high shine, the new finish ensures 12 hours of transfer-proof shine, and is available in signature shades as well as an extended range of nude hues.

Frill Factor
Good Squish was founded in 2021 by Billie-Jo Cronin with the intention of creating a brand centered in friendship and community. From humble beginnings, Good Squish has quickly grown into a powerhouse company that creates handmade scrunchies, all lovingly assembled in their design studio based in East London. With a small team of seven, Good Squish
is an ongoing collaborative project—working with artists to foster connections and dedicated to bringing people together. The Hackney- based brand’s scrunchies lean into nostalgia and are primarily made using deadstock textiles and fabric. Committed to a philosophy of sustainability, Good Squish continues to grow their community while expanding their collections to include other hair accessories as well as apparel.
Good Squish is available at goodsquish.com.

ART
KAWS and Effect
This September, the Art Gallery of Ontario spotlights the exuberant work of Brian Donnelly, AKA KAWS, in his first Canadian museum exhibition. Renowned for his larger-than-life sculptures and paintings of iconic characters drawn from popular culture, the exhibition explores KAWS’s singular ability to bridge high art, popular culture and commerce, displaying sneakers, album art, sculpture, sketches, paintings and brand collabs. At the centre of it all is his larger-than-life sculpture FAMILY (2021), where KAWS unpacks the idea of family, as both one’s relations, and one’s chosen people and a way of working.
KAWS: FAMILY is on view at the AGO starting September 27.
