Abstract art pioneer Vasily Kandinsky translated emotion and spirituality into vibrant visual symphonies. His 1913 masterpiece Painting with White Border, currently on view in “Collection in Focus: Modern European Currents,” at the Guggenheim New York, is among the artist’s first nonrepresentational works, concentrating instead on the pure distillation of color and form.

The spring/summer 2026 collection of Loro Piana celebrates fabric draping, elongated styles, and sartorial ease, as seen in the painterly Ludovica silk shirt, Corina skirt, and Artemide hat.
