The LOOKS • We asked three designers to select their perfect AW21 look for leaving lockdown – and then chose three of our own. Wondering how to play it when you ditch the loungewear? Here’s the preview you’re looking for.

The PIECES • Elevate your look this summer with the season’s most covetable accessories. From a sleek Givenchy bag to the Rolex of your dreams, these are the buys that prove style is all in the detail

SMART, REDEFINED • Work and play are almost back in business, but there’s one question on every sharp dresser’s mind: if this is the new normal, what is the ‘new formal’?

CK: RELOADED • The HERON PRESTON FOR CALVIN KLEIN collection reimagines the brand’s essentials through a modern lens

UNDERGROUND STAR • He’s performed Shakespeare at the Globe, released a hip-hop EP and shines in this month’s essential TV series. Aaron Pierre’s heart might be in South London, but his career is heading for the stratosphere

The DIRECTORY • Rethinking post-pandemic style with ideas to keep you on trend, whether you are WFH or playing away

Who’s next? • The blight of social injustice continues apace

BLUE SKY THINKING • Embrace the great outdoors – and the perfect summer wardrobe – with the new collection by Eye/LOEWE/Nature

Dr Rupert Whitaker • 58, psychiatrist and advocate

Hey Mykki • Rapper Mykki Blanco has spent a decade tearing down boundaries. Now, their moment has arrived

Greg Louganis • The Olympic gold medallist was given an HIV+ diagnosis aged 28, at the peak of his career. Now 61, he reflects on how the past three decades have seen an evolution in society’s understanding of the disease

Derek Jarman • Documentary filmmaker MICHAEL CHRISTIE on the iconic director and cinematographer who became his mentor

Status Anxiety • Why can’t the fashion industry be honest about HIV?
