Apparently, quite a bit.
Ranbir Kapoor has a new business. Ranveer Singh has new frames. Sabyasachi has gone very, very big in Delhi. Kay Beauty is moving into skincare. Adidas thinks your dog could dress better. And Third Wave Coffee has somehow found itself in the jewellery business.
Here’s what made it into the group chat.
Ranbir Kapoor has entered the personal-care space with Flux Theory, a new brand beginning with body washes. It’s a slightly unexpected move for the actor, but then again, celebrity beauty brands stopped being surprising a while ago. For now, Ranbir would simply like some room on your bathroom shelf.
Ranveer Singh is officially the first Indian brand ambassador for Ray-Ban and Ray-Ban Meta. Which feels fairly obvious once you hear it. The partnership puts one of fashion’s least shy dressers behind a pair of AI-powered smart glasses the kind that can take photos, play music, answer calls and still, importantly, look like actual sunglasses.
Sabyasachi has opened a 26,000-square-foot flagship at The Citadel in Mehrauli, and there is a lot to look at. There are 120 chandeliers, around 200 antique carpets, 300 works from the Sabyasachi Art Foundation, a High Jewellery salon, an accessories parlour and even a tramcar-inspired installation. It’s part store, part gallery, part very elaborate love letter to Calcutta. A Sabyasachi store was never going to be just racks and a checkout counter.
Your dog can now wear Adidas Originals. The brand’s Pet Collection has arrived in India, complete with the Pet Cali Tee in four colours, a leather collar with a tiny Trefoil charm and a 31-litre shoulder bag carrier. Yes, the dog has merch now. And depending on yours, possibly a better wardrobe too.
Off-White has opened its second India flagship, this time at DLF Promenade in Delhi after its Bengaluru debut. The new store brings together the brand’s ready-to-wear, accessories and familiar streetwear codes under one roof. Delhi did not exactly need help shopping.
KAY BEAUTY GOES SKIN DEEP
After makeup comes skincare. Kay Beauty has entered the category with two new launches: Hydra Daze Essence and Hydra Base Water Creme, both built around hydration and skin-barrier support. The idea is fairly straightforward: skincare that works on its own but also sits well underneath makeup. Considering the brand already had the face covered, this was probably only a matter of time.
Cartier has added a new chapter to one of its most recognisable collections. LOVE Unlimited takes the house’s familiar screw motif and turns it into flexible, all-gold pieces made using close to 200 miniature components.There are diamonds, an invisible clasp and bracelets that can be connected to one another. The LOVE bracelet has been around for decades. Apparently, it was ready to loosen up a little.
Birkenstock is taking the foot-care part of its job description rather seriously. The brand has introduced Care Essentials in India, a vegan range spanning foot and body care, including scrubs, balms and oils. The collection arrived alongside Birkenstock’s Autumn/Winter 2026 showcase in Mumbai. Shoes first. The feet underneath them next.
THE FESTIVE CART IS CALLING
Myntra’s Big Fashion Festival is back, bringing the usual mix of fashion, beauty, footwear and festive shopping into one very dangerous scroll. Insider members get a 24-hour head start before the sale opens more widely. Which means the annual tradition of adding twelve things to cart and buying three has officially begun.
Rimowa has added Ink Blue as a new permanent shade across its luggage collection. Inspired by the colour of ink, the deep blue has made its way onto the brand’s suitcases as well as its Groove leather bags and travel accessories. Black luggage will survive. But it finally has some competition.
Here’s a collaboration we didn’t have on the list. Third Wave Coffee and CaratLane have teamed up on a limited-edition range of Ube-based drinks, bringing CaratLane’s purple world to participating Third Wave outlets in India. The drinks are purple, glossy and very clearly aware that cameras exist. Coffee has officially been accessorised.
Drifters Brewing Company has officially arrived in Goa, bringing its Belgian White and Mexican Crisp brews along with it. Which means another option for beach afternoons, long lunches and the sundowner that was only supposed to be one drink. As if Goa was struggling for reasons to stay out.
