Los Angeles jeweler Ben Baller (real name Ben Yang) reveals his first piece of 2020, a stunning chain and pendant made in collaboration with Takashi Murakami in celebration of Kid Cudi‘s 36st birthday on January 30th.

Featured gems in the pink sparkler include diamond, pink sapphire and ruby stones, set in an 18K gold chain. The chain is filled with Murakami’s signature skulls and flowers, each of which can be spun, while the pink and gold pendant is fashioned after his Kiki character.

On Instagram, he wrote, “@benballer  made me a fuckin masterpiece for my birthday!!! The illest jeweler alive!!! Art level shit! Official @takashipom artwork approved by the man himself.

For fall winter 2025 KNWLS opted to forego a runwa For fall winter 2025 KNWLS opted to forego a runway show and present their collection in a styled lookbook.

Taking inspiration from a feminine Y2K aesthetic, the collection embodies designers Charlotte Knowles and Alexandre Arsenault’s ability to balance sexy and cool. 

In an interview with Vogue, the pair shared that they are currently working on a new design director role in Europe and have several other projects in the pipeline, including another denim project, a collaboration with a jewelry brand, and a menswear capsule for an e-commerce site.

Commenting on the lookbook styling, they shared, "Obviously in the lookbooks it's styled in a quite extreme way, but if you break it down into individual pieces, we've been thinking about merchandising and the customer more than ever before," said Arsenault. "We've seen the team in the studio wearing the pieces differently too, and we've taken that into account. It's a nice challenge to say: 'Okay, we want to make a sweatshirt, but it still has this silhouette or wash or rib detail that makes it feel really Knwls."
