This year’s Met Gala reminded us that fashion isn’t just about clothes – it’s about authorship, legacy and who gets to shape the narrative. In that spirit, here are 9 standout buys from Black-owned brands, from Feben’s sculptural Temple dress to Martine Rose’s faux-croc Wallabees. Think: statement staples with style, substance and staying power...

The Cap 

Mowalola doesn’t do quiet accessories, and this cap is no exception. Designed for those with the attitude to pull it off, it’s the final detail you didn’t know your outfit needed. Just throw it on and go. £80, Mowalola

The Vest 

Rendoll’s monogram vest is sleek, simple and stamped with the brand’s signature flair. Wear it solo on warm days or layered over thermals when the temperature drops. £65, Rendoll

The Handbag 

New York-based Brandon Blackwood makes bags built for late nights and everything in between. We’re eyeing up the Daphne in this rich, chocolate-brown leather. £270, Brandon Blackwood

The Shoes

Martine Rose puts a fresh spin on a classic with her take on Clarks’ Wallabee. Finished in faux croc and tonal topstitching, this pair feels modern and unmistakably Martine. £160, Martine Rose 

The Scarf

This Bianca Saunders scarf showcases a photo snapped by the designer’s mum in 1980s Jamaica – a soft-focus slice of nostalgia in hazy, sun-washed hues. Wear it knotted at your neck, in your hair, or tied to your bag for an easy hit of story-driven style. £180, Bianca Saunders

The Jeans

Kai Collective’s first foray into denim comes in strong with the KOA jeans. The relaxed barrel-leg fit is everywhere right now – ideal with a ballet flat or peeking over a sharp heel. £195, Kai Collective

The Sunglasses

Christopher John Rogers teams up with Austrian eyewear brand Andy Wolf for these bold, mid-century-inspired frames. A classic silhouette with a futuristic twist, creating outfit-elevating energy. $495, Christopher John Rogers

The Cardigan 

Daily Paper nails the balance between staple and standout. We’re into this two-way zip knit, which is equal parts cosy and cool, and easy to throw on over just about anything. €139.95, Daily Paper

The Dress

Swedish-Ethiopian designer Feben is celebrated for her sculptural silhouettes and dreamlike detailing – and this Temple dress delivers it all. The perfect statement for turning heads at functions this summer. £295, Feben
