💫 FROM FRIEZE TO LA FÊTE

After a whirlwind week in London, the jet set’s heading straight to Paris for Art Basel Paris. The Grand Palais swings open its doors today through 26 October. Whether you’re hunting blue chips or just there for the people-watching, find everything you need from tickets, travel tips, artist chats, and the full exhibitor list all on Art Basel’s site. Bon Voyage!

💎 THE GREAT LOUVRE HEIST

Elsewhere in Paris, the Louvre’s officially lost its sparkle last week. An official list reveals eight historic jewels stolen in a daring 19 October heist, including Queen Marie-Amélie’s sapphire diadem and Empress Eugénie’s diamond-studded brooch. One crown was found abandoned nearby damaged. Ocean’s 8, who? 👀

👟 ADIDAS GOES TANG DYNASTY

At Shanghai Fashion Week, adidas dropped “Power of Three”, a slick mash-up of sport and tradition. Think Tang jackets reimagined in silk and mesh, mandarin collars paired with oversized hoodies, and frog buttons meeting the three stripes. Heritage, but make it hype.

🧡 CHARLI XCX X ISSY WOOD = ART GIRL DREAM

Issy Wood has immortalised Charli XCX for Vanity Fair’s first art issue in decades, turning the pop provocateur into an oil-paint icon. Swapping brat-green for blazing orange, Wood’s portrait captures Charli’s mix of confidence, chaos, and quiet control, the modern muse, redefined.

🎓 GETTY CALLING

Powered by i feel it. you?

This edition’s partner i feel it. you? is a feels-first label for inner builders. It all started on a sunlit, lumpy tennis court wrapped in wild green, where bad tennis and big laughs taught the founders to step past the lines - past status games and perfection - into presence. Cut for movement. Tuned for giggles and real connection. Imperfectly perfect, every day. Since we from TheArtGorgeous totally can picture you strolling around the next studio visit or art fair with one of the brands feel-good items, we are excited to offer you this friendship deal: 30% off + free gift = self-love + community service // code: FEELGORG30
