Hit+Run, the platform designed to give a voice to passionate creatives and causes, and Revision, the  responsible and progressive online store that enables you to shop archival, new season and made to order designer collections have collaborated for a one-off t-shirt collection in aid of Ukraine. The range includes pieces from 15 of the UK’s most exciting designers and artists, including a host of the Revision brands – but also Know Wave Radio, illustrator Helen Bullock & Ukrainian born Epoch-A (soon to launch on Revision).

The For Ukraine collection consists of 42 designs, with profits going to support the DEC (Disasters Emergency Committee). There are long sleeve and short sleeve options, some feature illustrations, others abstract prints, bold graphics and slogans. Each of them has a powerful impact, and are truly unique.

The campaign was shot in and around West London’s Trellick Tower, as a nod to the brutalist architecture that can be found all over the incredible city of Kyiv.

Everything at Hit+Run is made to order, fair trade, and produced in organic cotton or recycled polyester. All designs are digitally printed using non-toxic ink, nothing is screen printed as the chemicals used are highly toxic and there’s zero plastic packaging.

It sells archival pieces alongside new season collections, helping independent brands reduce their waste and contribute to the circular economy, keeping products in use for as long as possible and thus extracting their maximum value.

For 70 years, Breitling’s original pilot’s watch has been beloved by aviators and tastemakers in equal measure. Worn by an astronaut in space and the biggest stars on Earth, it is Breitling’s most iconic timepiece. Breitling honors the legend with the introduction of a new Navitimer that captures its most classic features, while enhancing them with modern refinements.

“We don’t throw the term ‘icon’ around lightly,” says Georges Kern, CEO of Breitling. “The Navitimer is one of the most recognizable watches ever made. It’s on collectors’ lists of the greatest watches of all time. What began as a tool for pilots has gone on to mean something profound to every single person who has had this timepiece along on their personal journey.”

The Navitimer’s appeal stretches far beyond being a tool used by pilots to navigate their course, it’s a symbol for those plotting their personal journeys through life.  A new campaign, NAVITIMER—FOR THE JOURNEY, featuring the Navitimer Squad, made up of basketball superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, American Ballet Theatre principal dancer Misty Copeland, and aviation pioneer and explorer Bertrand Piccard embodies this spirit. Each member has been on an incredible journey to land where they are today, each at the top of their particular field. Each one has charted a course and stayed on it through sheer determination. And each one is en route to achieving their next set of ambitions. Using powerful visuals and the Squad Members’ own narration, the campaign aims to get right to the heart of these moving journeys.

Available in 41mm, 43mm and 46mm case sizes, in steel or 18K red gold and in a variety of bold dial colours all equipped with Breitling’s Calibre B01 chronograph, we invite you to discover the collection via the attached press release.  We’ve also attached a small selection of low-res images but please do let us know if you would like to receive high-resolution images, we have lots of lovely images to choose from.

A good nights sleep is worth it’s weight in gold and we only know the true value of it, when we experience a lack of it

Well, Brendan Murdock, founder of anatomē, may well have the answer for you in creating a calming and contemporary brand, which is driven by a simple belief that nutritional and emotional balance is the key to a healthy, fulfilling life and that a healthy, nourished body will support a healthy mind.

Anatomé have exciting new products and have just launched 4 new sleep soundtracks to create a sensory experience with the brand’s 4 sleep oils.  The collaboration is with recording artist, Snoozy, produced and mixed with Grammy award winning producer, Jonathan Quarmby and will be streamed on Apple and Spotify.

Clients are encouraged to listen to the recordings before sleeping,  simultaneously applying the sleep oils or pillow spray for an immersive sensory experience.

The 4 tracks take the listener on a sonic journey through the landscapes linking them to the ingredients of each anatomé sleep oil blend, Cornish Lavender, Somali Frankincense, Blue Chamomile and Japanese Seaweed. Grounded in sleep science, peer reviewed studies have found that listening to natural sound affects the bodily systems that control the ‘flight or fright’ and rest digest but autonomic nervous systems with associated effects in the resting activity of the brain.

The project is a continuation of sleep months these formulations are at the core of everything anatomé do, see the new formulated Recovery + Sleep Pillow spray, Candles and Recovery + Sleep tea leaves…
