10 killer Halloween costumes for couples

24 Oct 2025

The wait is over — it’s officially spooky season. While the internet has no shortage of original costume ideas that hit all of the right notes for 2025, this year, we’re approaching October 31 with couple dressing front of mind.

From billionaires that broke the internet to pop culture phenomenons in the midst of a revival, who doesn’t love a collaborative dress-up opportunity? We’re leaning all the way in to the gothic trend — think Jacob Elordi in Frankenstein for the boys or Jessie Buckley in Maggie Gyllenhaal’s hotly anticipated new project, The Bride!

Here are 10 killer costume ideas for couples — in no particular order and with varying degrees of difficulty — bound to win Halloween for both you and your betrothed.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce

A couple that need no introduction, this one feels like a conveniently easy lift (on both sides). Swifties, pick your favourite TS era. For guys doing their best to channel the Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end, a red letterman jacket, eye black, and a football in-hand should suffice. To keep it ultimately current, channel The Life of a Showgirl with a little extra orange plumage and a rock on your ring finger.

Romeo and Juliet

Iconic — and surprisingly easy to achieve — this one warrants a re-watch of Baz Luhrmann’s award-winning 1996 adaptation of the Shakespearean star-crossed classic. For Juliet, think a simple white slip dress, oversized angel wings and ethereal, barely there makeup. As for Romeo? A suit of armour or open Hawaiian shirt should do.

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’ Wedding

As far as we’re concerned, the Bezos wedding was the gift that kept on giving. Back in June, the city of Venice was overrun with celebrities for the week-long, larger than life affair. Dress as the billionaire bride and groom or channel one of the many, many A-list wedding attendees — the guest list ran the gamut from Hollywood’s elite to prolific business figures from all over the globe. Famous faces included Oprah Winfrey, Elton John, the Kardashian brood, Leonardo DiCaprio, Bill Gates and Paula Hurd, British Vogue‘s Edward Enninful and Italian model Vittoria Ceretti.

Elvis and Priscilla Presley

Channel Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla — specifically, the iconic bridal look from 1967— with a quintessentially ’60s style white shift dress, a shorter bouffant veil, an exaggerated cat eye and big, big hair. For Elvis — go big or go home. A brocade tux or sports coat, blue suede shoes and aviator sunglasses, reminiscent of The King in his heyday, should do the trick.

The Bear’s Carmy and Syd

Another refreshingly simple entry, chef whites and a cigarette, à la The Bear (available to stream on Disney+) feels like an easy option to rummage up in a hurry (ideal for those with last minute party plans). Head chef Carmen Berzatto (masterfully portrayed by Jeremy Allen White) and sous Sydney Adamu (Ayo Edebiri) captivated audiences with their on-screen friendship and complex working relationship. Sky high cortisol levels optional.

Frankenstein and Bride

We’re in the midst of a full gothic revival, with all things Frankenstein at its centre. Think Jacob Elordi in Sofia Coppola’s critical darling or Jessie Buckley in Maggie Gyllenhaal’s upcoming rendition, The Bride! — essentially, the living dead but with an opulent edge. This isn’t your average Frankenstein fit, we’re talking heirloom jewellery, flapper silhouettes, boxy oversized tailoring, bolts in the head, fake blood, et al.

Wicked’s Elphaba and Glinda

With significant pre-planning and head-to-toe green body paint involved, ultimate roommates Elphaba and Glinda The Good Witch is a look that requires full commitment, on both sides.

Justin and Hailey Bieber

Hot off a busy year that included a surprise double album and a billion-dollar beauty deal, respectively, Mr and Mrs Bieber remain one of the most talked-about power couples in pop culture. Trawl the internet for relevant references or go for the obvious and dress as though you’re going to completely different social occasions. Think sweatpants, Uggs and an oversized hoodie.

KPop Demon Hunters

Best executed as a trio, Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters has become one of the most successful series for the streaming giant in recent memory. Ideal for fans of young and old, this one is very much so open to interpretation. Channel Rumi, Mira and Zoey in black and gold cosplay and a pink or purple wig.

Parker Posey’s Victoria Ratliff and Jason Isaac’s Timothy from White Lotus Season three

The White Lotus S3 Hotel Guests

Since its debut season, Neon’s The White Lotus has hooked viewers with its complex and morally corrupt (yet bizarrely likeable) cast of characters, with season three no exception. Our suggestion? Parker Posey’s Victoria Ratliff and Jason Isaac’s Timothy. Go for holiday chic with an oversized silk kaftan and sunglasses, or don head-to-toe linen for the chronically stressed Ratliff family patriarch.

Christopher Esber just launched an exclusive eyewear collection

23 Oct 2025

A firm favourite among the fashion set, Australian designer Christopher Esber is now lending his refined eye to Specsavers — launching an exclusive eyewear collection available in store and online now.

While the optical range made its surprise debut on the runway at Paris Fashion Week on October 7 — a first for Specsavers — the full 20-piece collection features 13 optical frames and seven uniquely Esber sun designs, boasting a variety of contemporary and classic shapes.

“We were thrilled to preview our exclusive collection with Christopher Esber on fashion’s most coveted stage,” explains Specsavers’ Head of Frames, Nelly Soleil. “It’s an honour to be included alongside Christopher Esber’s latest collection and one we feel demonstrates the strength of the collaboration between our two brands. We can’t wait for customers to be able to take home a pair of glasses featured on the runway.”

While Esber is no stranger to a celebrity endorsement — the designer has dressed everyone from Margot Robbie to Zendaya, Dua Lipa and Hailey Bieber — this marks Esber’s first collaboration with Specsavers.

“Designing this collection with Specsavers offered a rare opportunity to introduce Christopher Esber to a wider audience, distilling our brand expression into a considered eyewear range,” Esber — who kept muses like Elle Macpherson and Bella Hadid front of mind throughout the process — explains.

“Each frame is pared back, refined and grounded in our design DNA — from sculptural lines and subtle hardware detailing, through to an organic palette inspired by the natural environment. Designed to be worn every day, the collection offers an understated way to integrate the brand’s signature sensibility into your personal style.”

On that note, here are four frames — for all occasions — from the hotly anticipated Christopher Esber Specsavers collection that we’re adding straight to cart.

01. Christopher Esber 09

Pilot readers? Yes, please. From the graphite frame to the oversized shape — we have no notes.

02. Christopher Esber Sun RX 05

Of the entire collection, the Sun RX 05 feels the most like CHRISTOPHER ESBER, the hardware accents feel elevated yet timeless.

03. Christopher Esber 06

These glasses feel equal parts classic and contemporary. We love the soft square and two-toned frame.

These pilot-inspired Sun RX 06 frames feel distinctly summery and like the ultimate off-duty look.

Melding art and function, Lucy McMillan’s hand-crafted tiles bring sculptural beauty to interior design

22 Oct 2025

Where timeless technique meets modern design, Lucy McMillan’s ceramic tiles, exclusive to Obery, are objects of quiet power and presence.

At the intersection of fine art and functional design, artist and ceramicist Lucy McMillan is redefining what it means to create surfaces with presence. Her hand-formed, layered, and richly tactile ceramic tiles are available exclusively through Obery (formally Design Central), a design studio known for its innovation in sourcing unique finishes.

With a practice steeped in centuries-old techniques and a reverence for material experimentation, McMillan’s work offers something rare: architectural detail imbued with genuine presence. “I was initially drawn to clay for its transformative qualities,” McMillan explains. “There’s a rawness and responsiveness that no other material offers.” What began as a personal project, designing tiles for her own family kitchen, quickly evolved into an all-consuming discipline. Today, her tiles are coveted by architects and designers worldwide for their painterly textures, sculptural depth, and quiet irregularity.

McMillan approaches tile-making with the same intentionality as she does sculpture or painting. “My process is built in layers and steps,” she says. “I often hand-stain and blend my clays, using techniques inspired by agateware and pictorial methods like collage, layering, and inlay.” Each tile is crafted individually. There is no mould, no replication. “It’s a slow, intuitive process,” she adds, “one that keeps me connected at every stage.”

Her fascination with agateware, a technique that dates back to the Tang Dynasty, informs much of her surface experimentation. She works with colour embedded within the clay itself, often combining this with Ancient Roman inlay techniques. “Pulling clay works from the kiln can feel like unearthing relics,” she says. “I love that sense of history, of process meeting chance.”

This tension between utility and art is at the core of her practice. “I approach my tiles as applied art; utilitarian, yet one of a kind,” she notes. “They need to function architecturally, but I never want to lose the sense that they’ve been made by hand, with variation and presence.” To McMillan,
it’s precisely that imperfection, that “quiet irregularity”, that makes her work resonate in
an age of mass production.

Her studio practice, in-house at Obery, is multidisciplinary, with sculpture, wall pieces, and tile work feeding into each other in a continuous dialogue. “Sculpture gives me freedom to be more experimental without utility, which feeds back into the richness of my tile work. Likewise, the discipline and repetition of tile-making help ground my sculpture. It’s a constant loop of influence.”

McMillan’s collaboration with Obery has provided fertile ground for this evolution. “Being part of Obery has sharpened how I think about scale, collaboration, and site,” she says. “Working with architects and designers has encouraged more fluid movement between disciplines and pushed me to think more broadly, especially as Obery expands into Australia.” She’s particularly energised by the boldness she sees in contemporary Australian design. “There’s a willingness to take risks with material, scale, and spatial narrative that I really admire,” she says. “I’m excited to be part of that conversation, to connect with people who are pushing boundaries.”

Despite the technical mastery involved in her work, McMillan remains deeply humbled by the medium. “There’s an alchemy to clay,” she reflects. “It’s constantly shifting, and often forces you to respond rather than control. There’s always an element of unpredictability. It’s changed how I run my practice: with more openness, and more attention to process.”

Every commission begins with intention, but what emerges is always singular — a surface of rich material memory, formed by hand, one tile at a time. In McMillan’s world, function and art are not opposites. They are inseparable.

Everything you need to know about combatting spring allergies

22 Oct 2025

Once spring finally rolls around, we like to think that we’re on the back-end of the dreaded cold and flu season. Sure, there will always be a whole host of nasty bugs circulating on planes, in the office and whatever is brought home by our delightful little petri dishes; but with the arrival of warmer weather comes more time spent outdoors. The worst of it, we hope, is firmly behind us.

For anyone that deals with seasonal allergies — allergic rhinitis, for the uninitiated — when the flowers bloom so too do the symptoms. Aside from mainlining over-the-counter hay fever meds in a bid to manage the day-to-day, there are several preventive measures one can take that can serve as an absolute game-changer.

Below, take heed of our definitive guide to surviving spring’s allergy attacks.

1. Crank the cold air

When driving and at home, utilise your access to AC and keep temps on the cooler side. A well-maintained HVAC system can help to reduce allergens by filtering your exposure to pollen and dust, however a poorly maintained unit can do the complete opposite — collecting pet hair, mould, dander and pollens and triggering a seasonal allergy attack. Be sure to keep humidity below 50 percent and ensure that your unit is serviced regularly.

2. Consider allergen immunotherapy

Among the millions of seasonal allergy suffers worldwide, many over-the-counter antihistamines just won’t cut it. Allergen immunotherapy — or AIT —is a prescribed shot that acts by tackling the allergy itself, rather than managing the onset of symptoms. The idea is that by desensitising the immune system, the body will build up more of a tolerance for whatever free radicals are causing the reaction. According to the research, three years of AIT can result in at least five to 10 years of benefit, so for those with severe symptoms, it’s worth discussing with your family doctor.

3. Try acupuncture

While the jury is still out on the proven benefits of a needle nap when it comes to managing seasonal allergies, the traditional Chinese medicine practice has long been touted as instrumental in treating all kinds of inflammation. Allergies — and more specifically allergic rhinitis — can be regulated by reducing inflammation and the sensitivity to allergens. Acupuncture works by down-regulating nasal nerves and increasing the natural antihistamines produced by your body. No more fight or flight.

4. Trust your gut

As far as we’re concerned, in any season of life, gut health is everything. If you’re still brushing up on the basics, now might be the time to finally get to know your pre, pro, and post-biotics. A healthy and balanced gut microbiome acts to regulate the immune system, while an imbalance in the gut can actively trigger allergic responses and exacerbate symptoms — think hay fever, asthma and eczema flare ups. Aside from taking a daily probiotic and managing the sugar cravings, maintaining a healthy diet with plenty of fibre and nutritious fruits and vegetables will do wonders for your overall wellbeing (funny that).

5. Rinse and repeat

Many allergy sufferers swear by the benefits of regular at-home nasal rinses using a safe and sterile nasal bottle or neti pod, particularly during the peak spring months. Saline solutions can help lubricate the nasal passages in a safe and effective way, particularly if traveling on planes leaves you feeling dry or congested. While there are a handful of dos and don’ts to remain mindful of, rinsing with a homemade saltwater solution will literally flush out unwanted allergens and can provide significant relief.

Sleek, silent and powerful — meet the bladeless fan you need this summer

22 Oct 2025

At first blush, you’d be forgiven for doing a double-take. The Shark TurboBlade is seriously that slick.

As we shift into longer days and lighter living, comfort at home becomes more of a priority — especially when it comes to staying cool at night and surviving the sweltering summer humidity.
Enter the TurboBlade, a design-led, bladeless fan that proves home appliances can look sleek and over-perform.

Modern and minimal in its charcoal or dove finish, the TurboBlade is made to complement contemporary spaces rather than compete with them. But it’s more than just good looks — the fan is powerful enough to cool larger rooms with ease, circulating fresh air exactly where you need it. With innovative, fully customisable settings, you can pivot, twist, and oscillate to find your perfect level of comfort, whether it’s a direct breeze or a soft, even flow.

Quiet enough to use while working and sleeping, safe for homes with children or pets, and refreshingly easy to clean — this is cooling that prioritises function as well as form. It’s the perfect solution for anyone who wants their home to feel calm, cool, and put-together — even in the stifling heat.

The Housemaid will be adapted for the big screen — here’s what we know so far

21 Oct 2025

We love a good film adaptation — even a bad one. There’s something deeply satisfying about watching a beloved book receive the Hollywood treatment, even if some are better left alone.

One reimagining that we do have full faith in, is the upcoming adaptation of Freida McFadden’s best-selling novel of the same name, The Housemaid. With Paul Feig (A Simple Favour) and screenwriter Rebecca Sonnenshine at the helm, the film stars Sydney Sweeney (Euphoria) and Amanda Seyfried (Mean Girls) in the title roles — and it’s safe to say that we’re already enticed.

In McFadden’s twisted psychological thriller, Millie Calloway (Sweeney) is a live-in maid with a complicated hidden past, working for a wealthy family that’s harbouring dark and sinister secrets of their own. As their erratic behaviour escalates, the maid realises that she’s trapped in a deadly game, but Nina (Seyfried) and Andrew Winchester (Brandon Sklenar, It Ends With Us) have no idea who they’re dealing with. Italian actor, singer and the face of Dolce & Gabbana, Michele Morrone, plays the family’s gardener, the only other potential witness privy to what might be going on inside the home.

The trailer — released by Lionsgate back in September — is set to a bone chilling rendition of Sabrina Carpenter’s Please, Please, Please and opens to an idyllic gated home, blanketed in snow. Throughout the film, the Winchester’s picture perfect home life unravels. Naturally, chaos ensues.

Sweeney and Seyfried star as maid and matriarch respectively in the upcoming film, scheduled to premiere in theatres across the US on Friday, December 19 2025.

Goodness Gracious just opened a brand new outpost in Wynyard Quarter

17 Oct 2025

In a bid to continue keeping Auckland’s CBD well-fed, cult favourite bagelry Goodness Gracious just opened a brand new outpost in Wynyard Quarter— marking it’s fourth location to date.

Situated in the popular dining district and flanked by local businesses, we suspect the newly minted cafe will become a hot favourite during the weekday lunchtime rush hour.
Fans of the original Eden Terrace, Parnell and later Takapuna locations will already be well-versed in the GG menu — think the CAB, a creamy medley of chicken, avocado and bacon bits or the BLAT, layers of crispy bacon, fresh baby spinach, avocado, tomato, aioli and tomato relish, a vetted hangover cure all. As for the meat-free options? The Vege Salad — a satisfying combo of sun-dried tomatoes, mushrooms, seasonal greens, avocado, feta and quince — never fails.

The new space features a custom ordering system (counter, QR, and kiosk), allowing diners to conveniently grab-and-go or dine in and lounge awhile. In keeping with the three existing locations, the new Wynyard Quarter cafe carries Goodness Gracious’ signature style, featuring an industrial concrete fit-out, black steel framing, butcher tiles, soft timber and just the right amount of warmth.

When a simple salad for lunch just won’t suffice, we suggest making a beeline to Goodness Gracious’ new spot for the holy grail of stacked bagel sandwiches — you can thank us later.

Opening Hours:
Monday — Friday, 7:30am — 4pm
Saturday — Sunday, 8am — 3pm

The Bentley Mulliner Aoraki is a love letter to New Zealand’s landscape

17 Oct 2025

The Bentley Mulliner Aoraki captures the soul of New Zealand in a singular, spectacular drive.

Few car brands in the world are as synonymous with luxury as Bentley. The British marque is defined by a carefully finessed balance of fine craftsmanship (with skills passed down through generations), engineering prowess, and a knack for tech integration. Still, it’s a penchant for future thinking that sets it apart. And nowhere is this more evident than in the recent unveiling of the first-ever Bentley Bentayga inspired by the captivating landscapes and unique heart and soul of New Zealand — the Bentley Mulliner Aoraki.

In 2023, our editor-in-chief embarked on a truly extraordinary journey with the storied marque, traversing one of the world’s most exceptional driving routes in what she described as a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Deep in the South Island, immersed in a world of design, wellbeing, and adventure (behind the wheel of Bentley’s fleet of models), the adventure not only offered the chance to experience and connect with the cars, but also an immersion into nature, witnessing some of the most spectacular landscapes in the world. And it’s here, amongst the snow-capped mountains, sprawling tussock-covered plateaus, and breathtaking fiords, that the seed was planted for The Bentley Mulliner Aoraki, Bentley’s one-of-a-kind new model.

Named for New Zealand’s tallest mountain, Aoraki Mount Cook, and drawing inspiration from our country’s captivating landscape, this unique vehicle was commissioned by Bentley Auckland and crafted by Mulliner, Bentley’s Bespoke Studio based in Crewe, England. The genesis of the New Zealand-inspired car was to craft something as spectacular and majestic as everything witnessed on the Extraordinary Journey.

“The Bentley Mulliner Aoraki was Named for Aoraki Mount Cook and draws inspiration from our country’s captivating landscape.”

Mulliner set to work, crafting a material and colour combination that captured several elements of Aotearoa’s unique environment, and the result is a vehicle of rare distinction. The Mulliner Aoraki’s Anthracite over Cyprus duo-tone exterior nods to the craggy hues of alpine rock, while tussock-covered plateaus are represented in Khamun contrast hand-painted pinstriping to the carbon fibre styling.

Inside, the cabin is a masterclass in bespoke design, from the Open Pore Galaxy Stone centre console to the richly grained ‘Kea Green’ leather accents — a nod to the South Island’s mischievous native parrot. Even the six o’clock steering wheel spoke and grab handles are finished in this deep olive-emerald shade, subtly tying in the colour story of Fiordland’s forested valleys.

Beyond aesthetics, the car has been engineered with both urban and off-road exploration in mind. Built on a foundation of performance and comfort, it comes equipped with Bentley’s Touring and All-Terrain Specifications, ensuring capability on even the most rugged backcountry roads. A bespoke, colour-matched roof box offers additional storage for longer escapes, while 22-inch Azure Wheels in Beluga Gloss with Cyprus pockets provide an effortlessly elegant stance. Inside, acoustic privacy glass, mood lighting, and a B&O for Bentley audio system create a cocooned, cinematic experience for passengers.

A tribute to (and reminder of) New Zealand’s spectacular natural environment and a true collector’s item, the Bentley Mulliner Aoraki is not only a masterpiece, but also a testament to how powerful a sense of connection can be — and a nod to Bentley’s ever-evolving ambition.

Somm’s October menu refresh is your cue to dine out

17 Oct 2025

Every so often, we could all use a gentle nudge in the right direction when it comes to dining out. This season, that nudge is towards Somm Wine Bar & Bistro on Auckland’s Princes Wharf.

After a typically wet and weary Auckland winter, warmer climes and lighter spring menu edits usher in a welcome change. In keeping with their expansive local wine list (conveniently available by the glass) and a plethora of gastro offerings to boot, Somm’s October menu edit has arrived at precisely the right time.

Featuring lighter bites to share, like the crispy chilli salt squid alongside heartier mainstays like Venison bourguignon, leave the wine pairings up to the seasoned sommeliers and consider yourself in very safe hands.

Left to right: Crumbed green olive salad & Chilli salt squid

For a Friday night wine that quietly segues into dinner by the water, we can attest that the smaller shared plates here leave no crumbs. Somm’s green olive salad with rocket, pear and walnut sits neatly alongside a robust Chardonnay list, while the crab toasts offer a satisfying and flavour-filled bite.

Tucked into Princes Wharf with front-row harbour views, this wine bar and bistro is the kind of place you plan to pop into for a glass and yet somehow end up staying all evening. The cellar is a love letter to New Zealand’s best producers — with an ever-evolving food menu that echoes the same sentiment.

Papinelle and Karen Walker’s dreamy new collaboration is an ode to nature

17 Oct 2025

There’s something to be said about updating your sleepwear as frequently as you do your wardrobe. After all, you likely spend more time in it than anything else, and luxurious fabrics and chic cuts go a long way.

Perfectly timed to coincide with springtime clear-outs and wardrobe refreshes, this month sees the unveiling of the highly anticipated Papinelle x Karen Walker sleepwear collection, entitled Garden Reverie, designed to celebrate femininity through elevated floral prints and muted hues.

This limited-edition, luxury collection invites wearers to slow down and unwind in style, a dreamy ode to nature. Here, Karen Walker’s whimsical prints and romantic florals take centre stage, effortlessly paired with Papinelle’s renowned lightweight, eco-friendly fabrics across a range of separates — from short and full-length pyjamas to nightgowns and robes. This year’s collection also offers a Mum and Mini addition, with children’s sizing now available in selected styles.

The collaborative collection between the two legacy brands — now in its seventh year — is both refined and utterly relaxed, offering a line of sleepwear that not only looks chic but feels like a soft, airy dreamscape. Whether you’re lounging on a sunny spring morning or drifting off for a peaceful night’s sleep, this edit brings a softened elegance and contemporary whimsy to downtime.

Going beyond aesthetics alone, the collection was conceived to conjure a serene sense of relaxation, and a momentary escape from the bustle of life. “Pyjamas should work for sleeping, lounging or spending a whole day in them,” says designer Karen Walker. “Papinelle’s fabrics are key, from cottons to machine-washable silk, and our prints bring them to life, making every piece practical, beautiful and chic enough to live in all day.”

Across the range you’ll find something for everyone, from buttery yellow seersucker to soft florals in a variety of pastel hues, with a wide range of cuts to choose from — dependant on what makes you feel your best, and will inspire relaxation.

Perfect for both home lounging and even casual outings, the Garden Reverie collection cleverly blurs the line between sleepwear and daywear, offering versatility with a refined twist, and turning downtime into a luxurious escape.

To celebrate the new Papinelle x Karen Walker collaboration, we’re giving away one set of pyjamas from the new collection, up to the value of $430. Consider gifting to someone special or treat yourself with the ultimate in elevated sleepwear.

The full Garden Reverie collection can be purchased online now and from Papinelle boutiques.
