Business conditions further moderated at the end of the third quarter (Q3) this year in the Turkish manufacturing sector, according to manufacturing purchasing managers’ index (PMI) data from the Istanbul Chamber of Industry.

The headline manufacturing PMI posted 46.7 in September, down from 47.3 in August to signal a further easing in the health of the manufacturing sector.

Firms again recorded slowdowns in new orders and output and were reluctant to commit to hiring or the fresh purchasing of inputs, S&P Global Ratings, which compiled the data, said in a release.

Meanwhile, inflationary pressures strengthened, but remained muted relative to the respective series averages.

In fact, business conditions have now moderated on a monthly basis throughout the past year-and-a-half.

Anecdotal evidence from the survey continued to signal a challenging demand environment for firms. This led to further slowdowns in new orders and exports, in turn resulting in a solid scaling back of manufacturing production.

Softer new order inflows meant that manufacturers were able to deplete outstanding business, which was reduced to the largest extent for almost a year. Firms were also left with excess finished products, which they added to inventories, resulting in the first increase in post-production stocks in three months.

Given muted workloads, firms were reluctant to take on additional staff in September, and noted a preference for using existing stocks of inputs to support production over the purchasing of additional materials.

As a result, employment, input buying and pre-production inventories all moderated solidly at the end of the third quarter.

Currency weakness again contributed to a rise in input costs in September. The pace of inflation quickened to a three-month high and was sharp, albeit still weaker than the series average. This was also the case with regards to output prices, which increased at the fastest pace since April.

Mango, one of the leading international fashion brands, announces Norwegian tennis player Casper Ruud as the new global ambassador for Mango Man. Ruud is the image of the new campaign that presents the latest Essentials collection, a proposal focused on the versatility of the basic garments of the modern man’s wardrobe, which has already been one of the main collections of Mango Man for several seasons.

With the Norwegian tennis player, the brand is furthering its Craft Your Own Story concept, which encourages us to play with our style and choose how we want to show ourselves at any given moment, bringing his serene presence and elegant approach to a wardrobe that tells a story. The new global ambassador embodies the spirit of Craft Your Own Story, the brand’s message that wants to underline how fashion can help us show our different sides and present ourselves to the world with the multiplicity of aspects that define us.

Mango has named Norwegian tennis star Casper Ruud as the global ambassador for Mango Man.
He fronts the Fall/Winter 2025 Essentials campaign, which highlights versatile, high-quality basics inspired by Ruud’s precision and calm style.
The collection features neutral-toned coats, jackets, jumpers, and trousers designed for interchangeability and timeless appeal.

Essentials focuses on the durability of garments, quality and fabrics, looking for the perfect fit for the Mango man. Inspired by the rhythm of Casper Ruud – a tennis player known for his control, consistency and quiet strength – the Mango design team has developed a collection that follows the same philosophy. A versatile selection of purposeful garments that feel as purposeful as they look. Just as precision defines Casper’s movements on the tennis court, it also defines the craftsmanship and design of our garments, where every detail serves both a purpose and a performance.

The new Fall/Winter 2025 collection features garments such as coats and jackets, jumpers and trousers. The colour palette is made up of neutral colours that are easy to combine with each other, such as black, white, grey and a few touches of light brown. Essentials aims to create a variety of looks through the interchangeability of all the pieces in the collection.

At the heart of this campaign, photographed by James Brodribb, is a shared ethos between sport and fashion: the belief that quiet dedication and commitment to quality pave the way to lasting success.

The BECKHAM x BOSS collection is returning for Fall/Winter 2025 and it’s a celebration of timeless silhouettes, heritage styling and impeccable design. Co-designed with global icon David Beckham, this second chapter of the collaboration redefines seasonal style with a blend of exquisite tailoring, luxurious fabrics, a refined palette, and a nod to David’s love of outdoor cold-weather pastimes. It’s the ultimate seasonal edit, designed to elevate your wardrobe with versatile pieces that transition effortlessly from city streets to countryside escapes.

“We were incredibly excited to work with David again for this second chapter of BECKHAM x BOSS. The collection presents a natural evolution of our debut collaboration. It lets David’s personal style shine through, while keeping a classic BOSS feeling at its core. We have worked hand in hand with him to curate a wardrobe that is versatile and elegant, perfect for both the city—and the great outdoors,” said Marco Falcioni, SVP of Creative Direction at HUGO BOSS.

“I love this time of year, the layering, accessories and clothes that are stylish yet comfortable. Right from the early stages of development I wanted to create a collection inspired by the feeling I get when I am at home in the countryside in the colder months. With my second collection with BOSS, we’ve put a strong focus on textures and materials that give classic pieces a fresh, modern feel,” said David Beckham.

Tailoring, Reimagined

Tailoring takes center stage in this collection, revisited in rich, sophisticated fabrics and fresh colors, with a focus on versatility. The suiting look features a sharp-shouldered jacket with a defined torso, complemented with the collection’s signature mid-waisted, tapered trousers. Sumptuous cashmere as well as cotton corduroy and virgin wool in brown, burgundy, and soft cream bring a winter-ready feel, whether interpreted as a stand-alone blazer or coordinating two-piece. A checked wool flannel ensemble in gray—styled with a double-breasted jacket and tapered trousers—offers an elegant option for formal moments at work and beyond. Everyday shirting in blue cotton poplin and gray cotton jersey provides a put-together finish.

Elevated Essentials for Off-Duty Days

David’s considered approach to tailoring extends to his off-duty wardrobe, where everyday essentials are elevated. Just in time for cooler days, a wide array of chunky knits with a distinctly British flair steal the spotlight, offering bold textures and cozy comfort. From the smooth touch of a plain knit to ribbed and cable knits, the knitwear pieces feature bold, textured constructions in neutral hues like dark brown and navy, adding interest and tactility to relaxed looks. Crew necks and zip-up designs are made for layering, while soft cashmere roll necks in burgundy and chalky beige remain firm winter favorites.

Trousers That Do It All

Sophistication meets casual cool with pleat-front trousers in brushed cotton and wool flannel, available in autumnal tones of brown, green, and beige. For a more relaxed vibe, dark blue cotton cargo pants and classic-fit jeans in an authentic wash are the perfect go-to. These pieces promise versatility and timeless appeal for every occasion.

Outerwear To Keep Up With Every Move

Whether you’re navigating city streets or braving the great outdoors, the collection’s outerwear has you covered. A black raw denim jacket, inspired by workwear, features a refined brown cotton cord collar, and a luxurious cashmere-wool blend liner—perfect as a lightweight option for transitional layering, alongside a bonded parka with technical rainproof fabric and taped seams. For a touch of luxury, bomber jackets in sporty nylon, cashmere-wool blends, and sueded shearling deliver refined off-duty vibes. A standout addition is the vintage-inspired trucker jacket in dark brown nubuck leather, complete with a cream shearling collar for added flair.

Finishing Touches That Make A Statement

Rugged workwear-inspired boots, sleek leather Chelsea boots, and updated cold-weather sneakers anchor the footwear lineup. In addition, a carefully curated selection of neckwear, hats, bags, and small leather goods crafted from premium materials like silk, wool-cashmere blends, and suede.

The Campaign

Shot by the legendary Mert and Marcus, the campaign brings the collection to life in the grand setting of an 18th-century London mansion. The stripped-back, stately-home backdrop perfectly mirrors the collection’s ethos: a harmonious blend of heritage and modernity. Art-directed by Team Laird, the visuals showcase David‘s aesthetic: effortlessly stylish and undeniably iconic.
