Too many headlines, too little time. That’s why "Seen by Fräulein" is our weekly edit of everything the Fräulein team has been talking about, obsessing over, or saving for later.

Open Days at Deutsche Oper Berlin

The Deutsche Oper Berlin is opening its 2026/27 season with a weekend that brings together opera, visual art, dance, performance, and community activities.
Artists transform the opera house and its surrounding neighborhood through performances, installations, parades, music, poetry, and interactive experiences.
Visitors can join a costume parade, explore artistic installations, listen to concerts and rehearsals, and take part in dance and creative workshops.
The program also includes special events for children and families, as well as a late-night dancefloor on the opera’s stage.
From Saturday at noon until Sunday at 6 p.m., the opera house will be open free of charge to artists, audiences, and anyone curious to experience the building as a lively shared space.

GUCCI PRESENTS THE PRIMAVERA CAMPAIGN

Gucci unveils its Primavera campaign, celebrating rebirth and the transformative power of love. Directed by Johan Renck, the short film features Kate Moss lip-syncing to Chris Isaak’s “Wicked Game” as strangers connect and fall in love on the dance floor. Photographed by Michal Chelbin, the campaign presents intimate portraits inspired by modern Renaissance imagery. Ten talents from music, film, fashion, and sport—including Xiao Zhan, Jin, NINGNING, Tom Brady, Alex Consani, and Shawn Mendes—represent Gucci’s evolving spirit and Demna’s vision. The campaign showcases Demna’s debut Gucci collection, combining light, effortless silhouettes with textures that blend contemporary style and the House’s heritage.

Feeling festive already?

For the festive season, ARKET  presents a selection of effortlessly elegant looks from its new Autumn/Winter collection— styles that can be adapted to the occasion and work equally well for everyday wear and special events. The label’s signature simple, minimalist Scandi style is interpreted in a modern, feminine way: sheer layering pieces—such as an organza dress and a long-sleeved organza blouse—join the lineup, pairing beautifully with buttery-soft leather in dark chocolate tones. Accessories like opera gloves and gold brooches add a touch of glamour.

Crime in Berlin – die Lange Nacht der Museen

On August 29, the Long Night of Museums will take place in Berlin for the 44th time. 75 museums will open their doors and invite visitors to 750 events under this year’s motto, “Crime in Berlin.” Historical criminal cases, curious discoveries, and fascinating insights into modern crime fighting are at the heart of the diverse program.

Autumn Strolls with Maiami

Soft textures, gentle tones, and a luxurious feel: Maiami knitwear brings a special quality to the autumn wardrobe. Shades of grey, camel, and pink underscore the pieces’ understated aesthetic, while high-quality yarns ensure both warmth and lightness. Their strength lies precisely in this simplicity. Clean silhouettes allow for versatile styling, making these pieces staples that endure well beyond a single season. Paired with a pencil skirt and ballet flats, the knitwear reveals an elegant side—composed, modern, and refined. It is perfect for a golden autumn day in Berlin: a stroll through the Hansaviertel to admire the unique architecture, followed by coffee with friends. An everyday kind of luxury—and perhaps all the more beautiful for it.
