CORSAIR 27: WHEN CHRIS-CRAFT REINVENTS THE ART OF SAILING WITH ELEGANCE.

There are certain designs that stand the test of time without ever losing their allure. With the new Corsair 27, Chris-Craft marks the triumphant return of an icon of luxury boating.

A design where American heritage meets a contemporary vision of luxury on the water. From the very first glance, its sculptural silhouette exudes timeless elegance.

Her enclosed foredeck, beautifully finished in teak, evokes the golden age of classic yachting. Every curve, every finish, and every material embodies a certain vision of excellence.

Measuring 8.40 meters in length, the Corsair 27 combines harmonious proportions with a bold character.

On board, sophistication is evident in a warm atmosphere designed to let you savor every moment.

The spacious interior, meticulous details, and redesigned ergonomics invite you to enjoy a truly special experience.

The redesigned cockpit combines comfort, technology, and the joy of sailing. Its extra-wide Garmin instrument panel offers an intuitive and decidedly modern interface.

Swivel seats transform the cockpit into a truly welcoming space.

An elegant, retractable electric bimini, available as an option, completes this exclusive experience.

Beneath its sleek lines, the Corsair 27 is equipped with engines delivering up to 424 hp. It promises thrills, freedom, and an escape to the most beautiful horizons.

With its various finishes, notably Heritage, teak has become a true aesthetic signature. From the Mediterranean to the most secluded shores, this boat embodies the art of standing out.

More than just a boat, it embodies a lifestyle where time seems to stand still. Chris-Craft thus demonstrates that modernity can enhance tradition without ever betraying it.

The Corsair 27 isn’t just the return of a legend—it’s a new invitation to experience something extraordinary.

]]> THE NEW HARLEY-DAVIDSON DEADWOO MOTORCYCLE FEATURES A CLEAN, VINTAGE STYLE https://canada.amilcarmagazine.com/the-new-harley-davidson-deadwoo-motorcycle-features-a-clean-vintage-style/ Thu, 03 Sep 2026 16:09:32 +0000 https://mens.amilcarmagazine.com/?p=940458

Inspired by postwar garage tuners and the spirit of the Sturgis Rally.

This motorcycle draws inspiration from the raw, minimalist style that captivated many motorcyclists in the aftermath of World War II. The new Deadwood pays homage to that era with a bold character that evokes the spirit of the lone rider. The 2026 Deadwood model is available exclusively in the United States and Canada at a suggested retail price of $17,999 USD, excluding import duties.

Coming soon to authorized Harley-Davidson dealers, the Deadwood is already featured on HD.com and was unveiled to the public on August 7 at the HD.com event held during the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in Sturgis, South Dakota.

Stripped Down for Performance After World War II, a generation of motorcyclists often chose to strip their motorcycles of all ornamentation and non-essential components in order to improve performance and simplify handling.

Getting together at gatherings was a way for them to reconnect with the sense of solidarity they had experienced in the military, and one of the most popular events was the Black Hills Motor Classic, held in Sturgis, South Dakota.

In 1947, more than 400 motorcyclists gathered in Sturgis to ride the winding, spectacular roads of the Black Hills region and visit the towns of Spearfish, Lead, and Deadwood.

“The Deadwood motorcycle embodies that spirit of rebellion and individualism so prevalent after World War II, when many GIs returning home hopped on a Harley-Davidson to experience the thrill and freedom,” explains Bjorn Shuster, director of design at Harley-Davidson. “Back then, few vehicles could match the exhilarating performance of a stripped-down Harley-Davidson built from wartime surplus parts. As designers, we find this era of customization and individualization—the early days of the bobber style—truly inspiring. Our second major source of inspiration comes directly from the name “Deadwood,” a place linked both to the Sturgis Rally and to its own history of rebellion. The graphics on the fuel tank evoke a Western visual language that embodies this place.”

Inspired by this era of personal expression and handcrafted design, the Deadwood 2026 motorcycle is stripped of all ornamentation and glossy finishes. The engine, exhaust, rear fender mounts, handlebars and stem, hand and foot controls, fork covers, front end, turn signals, and headlight are all deep black.

To highlight the engine’s V-shape, only the lower rocker covers and rocker arm tubes are chrome-plated. The fuel tank and the front and rear fenders are painted denim black. The 19-liter, teardrop-shaped fuel tank is topped by a black console housing a 12.7-cm-diameter speedometer.

The spoked wheels with black rims enhance the vintage style. The padded solo seat, with a seat height of 65 cm (25.5 inches) when loaded, reveals the rear fender, giving the Deadwood one of the lowest seat heights in the 2026 Harley-Davidson lineup.

With no saddlebags, the Deadwood reveals the rear section of a Harley-Davidson Softail frame designed to mimic the clean lines of a vintage hardtail frame. The lowered rear suspension and the shortened, removable windshield give the Deadwood a slightly lowered silhouette.

The Deadwood model is powered by a Milwaukee-Eight 117 Classic V-Twin engine tuned to prioritize ease of riding with a flat torque curve to deliver satisfying on-road performance.

The 2-in-1 exhaust system optimizes engine performance by promoting efficient exhaust gas flow from the cylinders. The single muffler is made of a lightweight, high-performance acoustic material that maximizes exhaust flow while producing a deep, pleasant rumble at idle and a powerful sound during acceleration.

The Milwaukee-Eight 117 powertrain offers exceptional performance potential when equipped with Screamin’ Eagle Stage kits and Screamin’ Eagle intake and exhaust components available from Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Parts & Accessories.

A vintage look, modern technology.

Although the Deadwood model boasts an irresistible vintage style, it incorporates the full range of Harley-Davidson technologies. The rider safety enhancements, designed by Harley-Davidson, are intended to boost the rider’s confidence in the event of unexpected situations or challenging road conditions. (Straight-line/cornering anti-lock braking system (ABS/C-ABS), straight-line/cornering traction control system (TCS/C-TCS), straight-line/cornering friction torque control (DSCS/C-DSCS), tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS)).

The selectable riding modes electronically control the motorcycle’s performance and the level of electronic intervention. The rider can use the Mode button on the handlebar control to switch riding modes while riding or when stopped. The Deadwood model is equipped with the following riding modes :

  • Road Mode: Designed for everyday use, Road Mode offers balanced performance.
  • Sport Mode: The classic Sport mode offers a flat, consistent torque curve with higher torque at both low and high RPMs, providing strong traction across all gears and at all speeds, making it comfortable, forgiving, and easy to ride for days on end.
  • Rain Mode: This mode is designed to give the rider greater confidence when riding in the rain or on surfaces with limited traction.

The all-LED lighting system is designed to offer style, exceptional lighting performance, and optimal visibility for other drivers.

The Deadwood model features a 7-inch headlight with a distinctive ring, auxiliary fog lights, and a taillight that combines brake lights, parking lights, and turn signals.

The 12.7 cm diameter instrument cluster, integrated into the console, features an analog speedometer above a multifunction LCD screen. The Deadwood rider can use the manual “Trip” control to scroll through the information available on the LCD screen. Two connectors for heated accessories are located on the rear fender, under the seat, for easy access. A USB-C charging port is located on the front left side of the motorcycle. The Harley-Davidson Softail chassis conceals the rear suspension beneath the seat, preserving the classic aesthetics of a vintage rigid frame while delivering a decidedly modern ride.

A rear monoshock with hydraulic preload adjustment under the seat allows the rider to optimize suspension performance based on load and road conditions. The rear suspension travel is 86 mm (3.4 inches). The 49-mm dual-valve fork ensures optimal front-wheel contact with the road for precise handling.

A 300-mm front disc brake and a 292-mm rear brake ensure powerful braking performance. The tubeless spoked wheels with cast aluminum rims feature a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). Dunlop Harley-Davidson Series tires (front 100/90B19, rear 150/80B16) enhance comfort and handling.

The live event, attended by Jeep owners and fans and streamed in New York Times Square, included a musical performance by LL COOL J, whose lyrics “Don’t Call it a Comeback” from his track “Mama Said Knock You Out” are featured in the brand’s new 60-second “America’s Original Influencer” campaign, now live on the Jeep brand’s social media channels.

The new “America’s Original Influencer” campaign, developed in partnership with Doner, highlights the Jeep Cherokee’s 50-plus-year legacy in the SUV segment, which is brought to life live this weekend, transforming Domino Square into an interactive playground of nostalgia, adventure and community. The larger-than-life Jeep 4×4 City Camp experience celebrates the return of the Jeep Cherokee, with interactive installations that capture the spirit of each era and the Jeep Cherokee models that define it.

Said LL COOL J, “I’ve been driving Jeep 4x4s for years – IYKYK. We go way back, so it’s an honor to be part of the iconic Jeep Cherokee’s return. Our bond is built on mutual respect: style, originality and always striving for the top. Not just for ourselves, but for everyone who chooses to ride with us on this journey.”

“As we imagined the appropriate way to celebrate the return of an American icon like the Jeep Cherokee, it only seemed fitting to join hands with LL COOL J,” said Olivier Francois, global chief marketing officer, Stellantis. “With this campaign, we acknowledge both LL’s influence in music and the one Jeep Cherokee has held over the past 50 years in the automotive category.” 

“New York, with all its grit and influence, made it the perfect place to launch the all-new 2026 Jeep Cherokee in front of so many Jeep fans and alongside the original influencer himself, LL COOL J,” said Bob Broderdorf, Jeep CEO. “Not only is the northeast a massive market for midsize SUVs, but more importantly it’s been the backdrop for so many Jeep Cherokee memories for families through the generations. We’re proud the all-new Jeep Cherokee hybrid, with its best-in-class capability, more cargo room and over 500 miles of adventure on a single tank, will continue driving that legacy forward for the next generation.” 

The vehicle reveal was live streamed in New York Times Square and broadcast on SiriusXM LL COOL J’s Rock the Bells Radio.

]]> FOSSIL AND 2025-2026 GLOBAL BRAND AMBASSADOR NICK JONAS RELEASE EXCLUSIVE “MACHINE LUXE” CAPSULE https://canada.amilcarmagazine.com/fossil-and-2025-2026-global-brand-ambassador-nick-jonas-release-exclusive-machine-luxe-capsule/ Wed, 20 Aug 2025 10:40:42 +0000 https://amilcarmagazine.com/?p=935127 RICHARDSON, Texas, Aug. 20, 2025 – Global superstar, actor, and philanthropist Nick Jonas has teamed up with leading watch and accessories brand FOSSIL for a bold and nostalgic new collection, launching August 20, 2025. Each limited-edition timepiece blends Jonas’ passion for watch collecting, his distinct personal style and Fossil’s decades-long design heritage to deliver styles that are both timeless and distinctly modern—all while reinvigorating our customers’ love for and personal connection to the brand.

Nick Jonas x Fossil Campaign

“It’s the use of materials that give this collection a distinct personality. They’re exceptionally personal pieces that elevate any look,” says Nick Jonas. “I’m excited to share my love of watches and this collection with the world.”

A lifelong watch enthusiast whose first watch was a FOSSIL, Jonas has partnered with the brand to mark the full-circle moment with a global campaign, captured in Jonas’ native New Jersey. Shot by renowned creative director and photographer Anthony Mandler, and styled by celebrity image maker, Sydney Lopez, the campaign sees Jonas in iconic styles, participating in activities that marked his childhood like visiting local diners and going to the bowling alley. This nod to Jonas’ childhood era will reignite the same nostalgic memories in customers and brand fans, reminding them of small and monumental moments alike throughout their lives.

Fossil Logo

“Collaborating with the FOSSIL design team has been a dream come true. They were receptive and open to my ideas throughout the entire process,” said Nick Jonas. “I still remember the excitement and pure joy I felt when I purchased my first FOSSIL watch shortly after one of my early performances. I wanted to capture that feeling for today’s customers and give them styles that feel elevated and luxurious, but still embody the nostalgia synonymous with FOSSIL.”

The “Machine Luxe” collection is a reimagined take on our bold and bestselling Machine platform, consisting of seven new watches and two new watch rings. Each style features a statement shaped case and signature knurling, characteristic of the Machine series at large.

The Machine Luxe Sunray Dial watches are available in Blue Vignette and Gold-Toned, featuring finely etched lines that fan out from the center of the dial to create a radiant sunray texture. The Blue Vignette paired with a brown croc-embossed leather strap was a personal request by Jonas, echoing a treasured piece from his own collection.

The Machine Luxe Automatic models elevate the offering with a skeletonized dial that reveals a premium Japanese automatic movement and hand-assembled parts. Available in Gunmetal and Gold-Toned.

Showcasing rich natural materials, the Machine Luxe Stone Dial watches arrive in genuine Malachite, Aventurine, and Marble. The signature knurling extends onto the bracelet, adding a bold twist to the classic dress watch silhouette.

Completing the capsule are the Machine Luxe Watch Rings in Gunmetal and Green Vignette. The rings mirror the timepieces’ aesthetic, bringing signature FOSSIL design details into the brand’s distinct, best-selling watch ring.

“Nick Jonas has a genuine love for watches and an authentic connection with FOSSIL brand, it having been his first watch,” said Melissa Lowenkron, Chief Brand Officer of Fossil. “There’s a sense of nostalgia and personal style he brings to the design—rooted in his own journey—that we know will resonate with fans and collectors alike.”

The Nick Jonas x FOSSIL Collection will be available at FOSSIL.com, all FOSSIL stores beginning August 20, 2025, and premium global retailers beginning September 2025.

FOSSIL

Since 1984, Fossil has been rooted in bold design and quality craftsmanship of watches. Over the past 40 years, the brand has grown into a multi-category lifestyle brand inclusive of leather goods and jewelry that blend vintage inspiration with modern innovation by creating pieces that spark curiosity, connection, and lasting memories. Fossil creates keepsakes that honor the past, celebrate the present, and look ahead to the future.

NICK JONAS

After electrifying music from multiple angles, appearing in blockbuster films, and launching successful business ventures, Nick Jonas still challenges himself and popular culture. Of course, his story as one-third of Jonas Brothers remains well-documented—especially given the band’s chart-dominating 2019 comeback Happiness Begins, sold out tours, and subsequent GRAMMY® Award nomination. At the same time, he established himself as a dynamic solo artist with a penchant for breaking boundaries. 2014’s self-titled Nick Jonas yielded the triple-platinum “Jealous,” double-platinum “Chains,” and gold-certified “Levels.” Its 2016 follow-up Last Year Was Complicated spawned the anthem “Close” [feat. Tove Lo] and brought his streams into the billions. In 2017, he contributed the Golden Globe® Award-nominated “Home” to the Ferdinand soundtrack. Meanwhile, his songwriting would be recognized with the prestigious Hal David Starlight Award from the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2016, and in 2021, he released his solo studio album Spaceman via Island Records.  Along the way, he also captivated audiences as a recurring judge on NBC’s “The Voice” in big screen favorites such as Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Ugly Dolls, Midway, Jumanji: The Next Level, Chaos Walking and more. In 2023, he starred in Robert Schwartzman’s The Good Half and is now set to return to the silver screen alongside Paul Rudd in the upcoming musical comedy Power Ballad.  In 2023, Nick and Jonas Brothers once again proved they are a constant force, embarking on a new era with the release of The Album, via Republic Records. The Album was produced by Jon Bellion and features hit singles “Waffle House” and “Wings.” In support of the new album and this new era for Jonas Brothers, they kicked off “The Tour” kicking off with two sold-out shows at New York’s iconic Yankee Stadium. “The Tour” included stadium and arena dates around the globe through 2024, resulting in the band’s biggest and most extensive tour to date. 2025 marks 20 years of Jonas Brothers, with their upcoming studio album Greetings From Your Hometown set for release via Republic Records on August 8, followed by a celebratory tour kicking off in their home state of New Jersey at MetLife Stadium on August 10.

]]> New OMEGA Aspen Boutique Now Open in Partnership with Oliver Smith Jeweler https://canada.amilcarmagazine.com/new-omega-aspen-boutique-now-open-in-partnership-with-oliver-smith-jeweler/ Sat, 28 Jun 2025 20:41:39 +0000 https://amilcarmagazine.com/?p=934374

Aspen, CO (June 27, 2025) — Oliver Smith Jeweler is proud to announce the debut of a new watch boutique in partnership with OMEGA, the prestigious Swiss watchmaker. The boutique arrives just in time for Aspen’s bustling summer season—and ahead of the highly anticipated return of Watch Week Aspen in early August. Located at 400 East Hyman Avenue in the heart of Aspen, Colorado, the new boutique is set against the iconic backdrop of Aspen’s luxurious shopping and cultural scene and marks an exciting new chapter in Oliver Smith Jeweler’s history.  

“We’re thrilled to bring this new OMEGA experience to Aspen,” said Oliver Smith, Founder and President of Oliver Smith Jeweler. “This boutique is a natural next step in our mission to bring the world’s finest watchmakers to Aspen—and further affirms the town’s growing reputation as a destination for watch enthusiasts. With Watch Week Aspen returning this summer, the timing couldn’t be better.” 

The OMEGA brand boutique in Aspen, CO

The boutique’s opening is strategically timed ahead of key Aspen summer events, including the Aspen Food & Wine Classic (June 20-22), and the second-annual Watch Week Aspen (August 7-10, 2025), the premier watch enthusiast event co-founded by Oliver Smith Jeweler that encompasses a week of boutique crawls, brand experiences, mingling, and watch-focused festivities.

The Omega Aspen boutique is a striking new addition to the Swiss watchmaker’s global network of luxury retail destinations, underscoring the brand’s continued investment in the western U.S. market. Guests will be able to explore a curated selection of OMEGA’s most iconic timepieces, including models from the Seamaster, Speedmaster, Constellation, and De Ville collections. Visitors to the Aspen Omega boutique will also be among the first to see the new 30mm Aquaterra, debuted to the world just this week. The boutique reflects OMEGA’s distinctive design codes, including its signature OMEGA red displays and immersive experiences that celebrate the brand’s legacy of precision, innovation, and contemporary style.

The OMEGA Aspen boutique offers guests the chance to explore the brand’s timepieces in a uniquely scenic Rocky Mountain setting, open Tuesday through Saturday, from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m. 

About Oliver Smith Jeweler 

Oliver Smith, founder of Watch Week Aspen, established his high-end watch and jewelry business in Scottsdale, Arizona, in 1981. While this is still home to the flagship boutique and a recently opened store at Scottsdale Fashion Square, the designer’s flair for in-house jewelry creations and curated estate watches and jewelry extends to Colorado too. The historic Tom Thumb building in Aspen is the prime location for another Oliver Smith boutique. For more info, visit oliversmithjeweler.com.

]]> DEFENDER OCTA – THE NEW MASTER OF EXTREME PERFORMANCE https://canada.amilcarmagazine.com/defender-octa-le-nouveau-maitre-des-performances-extremes/ Sun, 11 May 2025 14:14:48 +0000 https://mens.amilcarmagazine.com/?p=933516 Like a diamond, the new Defender OCTA is a rare combination of extreme robustness and luxury, hence its name inspired by the hardest and most desirable mineral in the world.

The new Defender OCTA boasts a commanding stance and bold new design, while its signature new emblems pay tribute to its diamond-level capabilities.

Introducing a new hero for Defender, the British brand with the original spirit of adventure : the new Defender OCTA. The toughest, most capable and most luxurious member of the  unstoppable 4×4 family, taking the Defender 110’s capability to a whole new level.

Powered by a 4.4-litre Twin Turbo mild-hybrid V8 engine, the OCTA model is the most extreme and powerful Defender yet, delivering 467 kW/635 hp and up to 750 Nm1 of torque and accelerating from 62,14 mph in 4.0 seconds . Completely redesigned chassis components featuring innovative technologies, including 6D Dynamics suspension, ensure its dynamic capabilities are taken to new heights.

The exterior is bolder and more robust than ever, with a distinctive character. The ride height is raised, its stance wider, and the wheel arches are enlarged, for an incredible presence. Redesigned bumpers improve approach and departure angles, while robust underbody protection gives drivers the confidence to explore more rugged terrain. And it will be able to tread deeper ground than any production Defender before it, down to one meter of water.

Mark Cameron, Defender Managing Director, said: “With the new Defender OCTA, we’ve been able to unlock the Defender’s full potential. It embodies the very definition of breadth of capability, but also demonstrates what we can achieve by utilizing the very best technologies and talent within our engineering division. With its powerful V8 engine, groundbreaking 6D Dynamics suspension technology, luxury finishes, and unique details, it’s rare, incredibly robust, and inherently desirable.”

The name of the new Defender OCTA is taken from the world’s strongest and most attractive mineral – a diamond – and the octahedron shape that gives it its distinctive look and durability. This shape also inspired the distinctive new emblem, which marks it as the flagship Defender model, at once strong and durable, yet striking, rare and desirable.

Each Defender OCTA features a new diamond-in-circle motif, finished in Gloss Black stamped onto a machined and sandblasted titanium disc, affixed to each signature graphic panel.

The rugged luxury of the Defender OCTA is epitomised by the Defender OCTA Edition One, available from the first year of production. It features a carefully crafted specification, finished in a new exclusive Faroe Green shade, seamless knitted seat covers in PU UltrafabricsTM Khaki and Ebony, new Chopped Carbon Fibre details and 20-inch forged alloy wheels with a choice of optional specially designed All-Terrain or Advanced All-Terrain tyres.

UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE

The new OCTA model delivers unprecedented performance for the Defender. Powered by a 467 kW/635 hp 4.4-litre Twin Turbo mild-hybrid V8 engine mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission with a dual-speed transfer case (high/low range), it is the most powerful and extreme Defender ever.

The new Defender OCTA will reach up to 155 MPH(limited) when fitted with 22-inch forged alloy wheels and all-season tyres.

With 750 Nm of torque 1 (up to 800 Nm by selecting Dynamic Launch mode) and tuned to match the vehicle’s exceptional off-road performance, the new Defender OCTA is capable of accelerating from 0 to 62,14 mph in 4.0 seconds, while maximum torque is available from 1,800 to almost 6,000 rpm, ensuring exceptional traction.

INCREDIBLE CAPABILITIES AND DURABILITY

The dynamic capabilities of the new Defender OCTA go far beyond what any Defender has achieved before, with the introduction of hydraulically interconnected 6D Dynamics suspension technology for the first time on a Defender, along with significant hardware and geometry changes. Unique in its kind, it is designed to be as enjoyable to drive on-road as it is off-road, without any compromise.

The Defender OCTA is raised 28mm and features a 68mm wider stance, for superior ground clearance and stability. To ensure unrivalled confidence and control on all terrains, with both maximum wheel articulation off-road and reduced body roll on-road, revised suspension components include longer, stronger wishbones and unique active dampers with separate accumulators. The model also features optimized 400mm front brake discs with Brembo calipers and features the quickest steering ratio of any Defender to date, for immediate and precise responses.

A bespoke testing and development programme comprising over 13,960 additional tests , including high-speed off-road reliability and endurance, as well as high-speed on-road performance, had to be created for the Defender OCTA, as the team entered areas of capability and robustness that had never been explored before.

Jamal Hameedi, Director of SVO, JLR, said: “Our high-performance experts have achieved the impossible with Defender OCTA, working tirelessly over the last three years to create the most capable Defender ever produced, regardless of the surface it is operated on. They have completely redesigned the vehicle’s components to ensure Defender OCTA is the perfect companion for epic adventures in every corner of the globe.”

An advanced combination of hydraulically interconnected, continuously variable semi-active dampers virtually eliminates body pitch and roll on the road, while the 6D Dynamics system also contributes to the Defender’s unprecedented comfort and refinement. On challenging terrain, the 6D Dynamics system allows for greater wheel articulation and tackles even more extreme obstacles, meaning customers can go even further and in greater comfort.

The full capabilities of the new Defender OCTA, which can automatically detect the surface it is driving on and optimize its dynamic settings accordingly, are unleashed through its enhanced driving modes. In addition to the default Comfort mode, Dynamic mode offers the ultimate performance-focused on-road experience, adjusting the vehicle’s steering, throttle and suspension settings with a simple touch of the signature logo button on the steering wheel.

A long press of the same button accesses OCTA mode, Defender’s first-ever performance-focused off-road driving mode. This has been specifically created to ensure ultimate control and driver confidence. OCTA mode also enables an Offroad Launch mode for optimal acceleration on loose surfaces. Combined with the lowest settings of the traction management systems (TracDSC or DSC off), it also applies a unique off-road ABS calibration for optimal braking performance on loose surfaces.

For more technical off-road maneuvers, the Defender’s suite of familiar Terrain Response modes remains at the driver’s fingertips, with specific Sand, Mud/Ruts, Grass/Gravel/Snow and Rock calibrations, supported by off-road driving aids such as ClearSight Ground View2, which provides a virtual view of the front wheels and surface with a display on the touchscreen.

AN EXTERIOR PLACED UNDER THE SIGN OF CONFIDENCE

Defender’s commanding presence and off-road focus give Defender OCTA a bold new attitude. It is available with 22-inch diameter wheels, the largest ever fitted to a production Defender, and Goodyear Advanced All-Terrain tires1 specifically designed for the OCTA model. This required flared wheel arches, which complement the off-road-optimized front bodywork with unique grille designs allowing for improved underhood airflow, a new rear bumper incorporating a quad-exit active exhaust system, robust underbody protection including an aluminum alloy front bumper in Graphite, and exposed front and rear tow points finished in Phosphor Bronze.

The Defender OCTA color palette includes two new exclusive premium metallic finishes: Petra Copper and Faroe Green, as well as Carpathian Grey and Charente Grey, while all Defender OCTA models feature a contrasting roof and tailgate in gloss Narvik Black. Customers can personalize their vehicle with the optional matte protection film for additional body protection in challenging environments, also adding an elegant look that highlights its distinctive silhouette and sophisticated surfaces.

The Faroe Green color is available exclusively on the Defender OCTA Edition One, as are the Chopped Carbon Fiber details. This highly distinctive finish, which includes recycled raw materials, features on the Defender bonnet lettering, side vents and bonnet vents, as well as on the front seat backs and center console trim inside.

AN ENGAGING AND IMMERSIVE INTERIOR

Inside, carefully selected details set the new Defender OCTA apart. Two ultra-durable UltrafabricsTM PU options – 30% lighter than traditional leather – are available. This knitted seat finish is standard on the Defender OCTA Edition One, in two-tone Khaki and Ebony, and has a minimalist, seamless finish.

For the Defender OCTA, the standard interior is offered in a new Semi-Aniline Burnt Sienna leather, with Kvadrat™ textile trim in Ebony. Any Defender OCTA model can also be equipped with Ultrafabrics™ PU in Light Cloud and Lunar, or Semi-Aniline leather in Ebony.

The front row of the Defender OCTA features all-new Performance seats with supportive bolsters and integrated headrests. Another new feature of the Defender is the Body and Soul Seat audio technology .

The Body and Soul Seat feature was created in collaboration with music industry experts SUBPAC and Coventry University, allowing both the driver and front passenger to feel and hear the music . Six wellness programs are also available to help passengers relax or boost their cognitive responses while traveling, depending on their preferences.

The Defender OCTA PRICE starts at 195 940 $

]]> Tiffany Haddish to Host the 29th Annual FGI Rising Star Awards https://canada.amilcarmagazine.com/tiffany-haddish-to-host-the-29th-annual-fgi-rising-star-awards/ Tue, 18 Mar 2025 14:42:47 +0000 https://usa.amilcarmagazine.com/?p=932301

Fashion Group International (FGI) will host the 29th annual FGI Rising Star Awards ceremony on April 16, 2025, in New York City, from 11 am to 2 pm (location to be announced).

Emmy, Grammy, and NAACP Image award winning actress, performer, producer, and New York Times bestselling author Tiffany Haddish (Girls Trip, The Last Black Unicorn), will host the venerable fashion non-profit organization’s red-carpet awards ceremony – joined by presenters Fern Mallis, Gary Wassner, Ken Downing, Reem Acra, Jonathan Cohen, and more to be announced. The event convenes leading designers, executives, and tastemakers, and presenters to recognize emerging talent in fashion, beauty, and related sectors – along with distinguished leaders like Robert Chavez, former Executive Chairman Hermès Americas (Retired), recipient of this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award.

“The Rising Star Awards and program serve as a premier platform for celebrating the next generation of industry leaders,” said Alyce Panico, Chairperson of FGI Board of Directors and CEO of Luxe Collective Group. “I am incredibly proud of this initiative in championing mentorship and leadership in a year where these values are more vital than ever. FGI remains at the forefront of supporting emerging talent and empowering them to shape the future of our industry.”

“Each year, as we review the applications, we remain inspired by the energy and creativity of these founders, designers, and emerging brands,” says Maryanne Grisz, President & CEO of Fashion Group International. “They are the future of fashion – and it is our honor to recognize their work and support their vision as these nominees and honorees step into the spotlight and the next chapter of their careers at the FGI Rising Star Awards.”

The FGI Rising Star Awards is one of FGI’s signature fundraising events. The event’s visibility and impact reflect the global fashion organization’s commitment to nurture and support fashion professionals at every stage of their careers with vital resources, educational opportunities, and a global forum for connection. Applications opened in September of 2024 to eligible businesses in operation for two to six years. Finalists and honorees are ultimately selected by FGI member vote and juried panel.

Historically, the FGI Rising Star Awards have served as a career incubator for some of the fashion world’s most revered brands and designers, including Tory Burch, Jason Wu, Brandon Maxwell, Joseph Altuzarra, Phillip Lim, Kerby Jean-Raymond, Thom Brown, Monica Rich Kosann, Dee Ocleppo Hilfiger, Brett Heyman, Warby Parker, Cornelia Guest; Dylan Lauren of Dylan’s Candy Bar; Jennifer Fleiss and Jennifer Hyman of Rent The Runway, and Rachel Shechtman of Story.

Returning sponsor Macy’s, in its second-year partnership with FGI, will again sponsor the Future Fashion Award in Fashion Merchandising, recognizing an outstanding student in fashion merchandising enrolled in one of six partner collegiate programs. On behalf of returning sponsor Hilldun Corporation, Gary Wassner will present the Hilldun Business Innovation Award to Carly Bigi, Founder of Laws of Motion.

FGI will fete awards finalists at an annual, invitation-only pre-event. This year, for the first time, the awards pre-event will take the form of an informal fireside chat: a new format proposed by FGI Board Chairperson Alyce Panico. Ms. Panico was appointed to the role in January of 2025, succeeding 6-year former Board Chairperson and current FGI Board member and advisor James D’Adamo. 

Prior to her appointment, Ms. Panico served on the FGI Board of Directors for five years in addition to co-chairing the 2024 FGI Night of Stars gala. The fireside chat aligns with FGI’s strategic direction for 2025 and Panico’s expressed goals to continue fostering opportunities for connection and to further develop the organization’s impactful programming.

This year’s pre-party event will be hosted by APL and APL Managing Partner NJ Falk, at the luxury performance athletic and lifestyle footwear flagship store in New York City’s SoHo district. During the event, FGI Chairperson Alyce Panico will moderate a fireside chat with NJ Falk, Robert Chavez, Gary Wassner, and other special guests who, together, will discuss the topic of mentorship and paying it forward in the fashion industry.
