Monocle April 2026 #192

Packed with must-reads, exclusives and an insider’s look at diplomacy today, our April issue is here. We sit down with Canada prime minister Mark Carney in Tokyo to hear why middle powers are more important than ever at a time of rupture. Then we take you on a tour of the world’s best embassies, from the Nordics in Berlin and the Philippines in Singapore to Italy’s stylish outpost in London. We also fly to Manhattan to meet the CEO of Bloomingdale’s and speak with the chair of Zegna Group for an insight into his plans for Tom Ford. Plus: browse our fashion top 25 for the best labels and retail spaces this spring. 

Monocle magazine was launched in 2007 to provide a briefing on global affairs, business, culture, design and much more. We believed that there was a globally minded audience of readers who were hungry for opportunities and experiences beyond their national borders. Today, Monocle is published 10 times a year out of our HQs at Midori House and Dufourstrasse 90 in Zürich, and we now sell more than 80,000 copies per issue and have 24,000 subscribers and growing.
