Copenhagen-based band ROTATE celebrates togetherness and the unique power of female friendship for its Pre-Spring 2023 collection, delivering a vivid display of uber-saturated garments that exude individuality.

Merging a punk aesthetic with an unapologetic feminine sensibility, the brand's latest presentation is inspired by creative directors Thora Valdimars and Jeanette Madsen's own personal sister circles. Standouts include a positively psychedelic purple faux fur shag jacket, alongside shimmering, statement-making matching sequin sets. Elsewhere, a holographic snake skin suit results in an eye-catching ensemble, perfectly embodying cool girl energy. Meanwhile, a bubblegum pink mini dress is outfitted with a flirty floral print, balancing the collection's rockstar-worthy garments with a touch of sartorial sweetness. Following closely behind is a sultry iteration of the classic tweed skirt suit as the blazer boasts a plunging neckline, while the knee-length skirt is not complete without a thigh-baring slit.

ROTATE continues to experiment with texture, introducing a tactile tassel-finished crochet fabric, alongside a party-ready black sparkle knit. The entire collection is fit for a fête as an electric green halter jumpsuit evokes confidence as it boasts a fun midriff cut-out, while a grape-colored bustier and matching leather pants provides a lovely contrast.

Joining the core collection is an eight-piece capsule paying homage to the beloved closet staple, the "Little Black Dress." Featuring different silhouettes and fabrics, from a simple short jersey shift to a subtly sexy open back lace midi option, the entire offering empowers women to step into their on unique power, providing an LBD -- or '70s-esque fur coat -- for every woman.

ROTATE's Pre-Spring 2023 collection is available for purchase on the brand's online store. Catch a glimpse of the latest launch in the gallery above.

  • Bad News On World Penguin Day: Reduced Sea Ice Kills Emperor Penguin Chicks

    Record low levels of Antarctic sea-ice in late 2023 have resulted in breeding failures in a fifth of the continent’s emperor penguin colonies according to research released by the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) on World Penguin Day on 25 April 2024. With 14 of 66 colonies and tens of thousands of penguins affected, the finding is not as severe as the 2022 season, in which 19 colonies — almost 30% — were impacted but there is an increasing trend of colonies losing chicks as a result of ice-loss before the end of the breeding cycle with 2023 the second worst year since the observations began in 2018. Emperor penguins breed and raise their chicks on land-fast sea ice – stable sea ice that is firmly attached to the shore. If this ice breaks up too early, the chicks go into the sea before they grow their waterproof feathers — known as fledging. This leads to high, or sometimes total, chick mortality at the colony. Several colonies that were badly affected in 2022 also showed adaptations with some moving home to find more stable ice and some breeding on icebergs or ice shelves - raising hope for the future. Despite this, current predictions suggest that in scenarios in which greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise at current levels the population of emperor penguins will fall by 99% by the end of the century, leading to the virtual extinction of this beautiful animal.

  • Ceasefire monitoring centre in Nagorno-Karabakh shuts as Russian peacekeepers withdraw

    The Russian and Turkish flags were lowered on Friday to mark the closure of a centre set up to monitor a ceasefire in Nagorno-Karabakh, as Russian peacekeepers ended a multi-year deployment in the strategic South Caucasus region. Nearly 2,000 Russian peacekeeping troops were dispatched to the breakaway region of Nagorno-Karabakh in November 2020 under a Moscow-brokered deal that halted six weeks of fighting between Azerbaijani and ethnic Armenian forces. Despite the deployment, Azerbaijan retook Karabakh by force in September last year, a move which triggered an exodus of at least 100,000 ethnic Armenians living there and the arrest of the breakaway area's ethnic Armenian leaders.
