As the sun shines on Florence’s Fortezza da Basso, we visit the 88th edition of fashion trade show Pitti Uomo. Style is always on the agenda but substance, colour and comfort are also at the fore for spring/summer 2016. Here are our highlights.

Marking the biggest shake-up in the survey’s nine-year history, Monocle’s 2015 Quality of Life survey awards Tokyo the number one city to call home. Rising from second place in 2014, the Japanese capital’s defining paradox – its heart-stopping size and concurrent feeling of peace and quiet – helped it claim the crown.

Featuring our ninth annual Quality of Life Survey, Monocle’s July/August double issue is out now. From the twisting streets of Tokyo to the green spaces of Vienna, the long sunlight hours of Sydney to the citywide food festival of Helsinki, roll up to read about the world’s 25 most liveable cities, alongside our usual tour of the best in design, urbanism, business, fashion and more.

New York can easily live up to its movie-star good looks but it can be a city that surprises, too. Monocle has had a bureau in New York since its launch in 2007 and this has made us passionate about this city and its ambitions. The Monocle Travel Guide to New York, published by Gestalten, is a celebration of all that we love about the city. Available now at [The Monocle Shop.](/shop/books-and-music/travel-guides/)

This year sees the biggest shake-up of our annual Quality of Life list since it launched in 2007. We’ve added 22 new metrics and the new additions have led to some dramatic changes in the order of the top 25 cities. Old favourites have slipped down the list, while we also welcome back one entry. And we have a new number one. We hope, as in previous years, the list provokes a stimulating and lively debate.

From state-of-the-art evacuation slides to the perfect mid-flight chocolate mousse, Monocle Films samples the innovation on offer at the world’s leading trade fair devoted to enhancing the in-flight experience.

Monocle has launched a new series of travel guides for people who want to get the most out of their stay and feel like locals rather than tourists. To celebrate the publication of our London guide, Monocle Films brings you a cinematic portrait of the city. From great examples of urban design and lofty gardens to culinary discoveries and the best music venues, our film journeys to our favourite places in the city we call home. The Monocle Travel Guide to London, published by Gestalten, is available now at [The Monocle Shop.](/shop/books-and-music/travel-guides/)
