This week’s edition of Don’t Dillydally (our regular look at the new releases worth paying attention to — and pouncing on) we unearthed two kooky shoe drops, a coveted PS4 controller, and a whole mess of sunglasses collaborations.
Madewell x Veja
These newly launched, exclusive-to-Madewell Vejas have … polka dots!
UGG x Ovadia
In other delightful footwear news, Brooklyn-based menswear line Ovadia has created these wonderful tie-dyed UGGs (as seen here modeled by Eddie Huang). They’re for men, but women take note: the smallest size is a 5 (so a women’s 6.5).

Sony PS4 Controllers — In Blue and Orange
When Sony released its PlayStation 4 controllers in “berry blue” and “sunset orange” over a year ago, they almost immediately sold out (and were going for exorbitant prices via third-party sellers). Now, those colors are back in stock until “supplies last.” Fun fact: The sunset orange is apparently popular with fans of the Denver Broncos.
Everlane’s Cotton Quilted Jacket
A quilted in-between-seasons jacket that’s also available in off-white.
Ines de la Fressange’s Spring 2020 Uniqlo Line
We’re a little late to the party on this one (it debuted January 26), but the Ines de la Fressange spring 2020 collection for Uniqlo is just lovely. This sweater we had our eye on, sadly, is almost all sold out, but there are still lots of sizes available in this Thom Browne–esque “blouson.”
Quay x Chrissy
There were three (three!) sunglasses collaborations that launched this week. First up: an array of shades made in partnership between Australian line Quay and Chrissy Teigen. This, the second “Quay x Chrissy” collection, includes ten new styles.
A.P.C. x Persol
Persol (which apparently hasn’t collaborated with any brands in 50 years) teamed up with A.P.C. on a rethink of Persol’s classic 649 sunglasses. A little backstory: These were designed in 1957 for tram-drivers in Torino, and they became famous when Marcello Mastroianni wore them in Divorce, Italian Style in 1961. They’re available in three A.P.C.-specific colorways.
Millie Bobby Brown x Vogue Eyewear
And, finally, a kicky collection of ’90s-inspired sunglasses designed by MBB.
