Elle Fanning Basically Wore a Giant Gold Chain Link as a Crop Top, and Y’know What? It Works

November 16, 2021 at 07:55PM Chain links have proven to be timelessly fashionable in the form of necklaces and purse straps, but Elle Fanning introduced us to an entirely new, larger-than-life take on the trend at the 2021 InStyle Awards on Monday. The 23-year-old actress commanded attention at the event when she walked the red carpet in a crop top designed to resemble an enormous chain link. Hailing from Balmain’s spring/summer 2022 collection, the armor-like design features dozens of dazzling jewels lining the front and wraps around the back with a much thinner gold chain. With help from her longtime stylist, Samantha McMillen, Elle paired the spotlight-stealing top with a simple low-rise maxi skirt, platform heels, and a collection of gold Balmain rings. Somehow, against all odds, the outfit … really worked. Aesthetics aside, however, we do have some urgent questions about the…

How to Look Really, Really, Really Rich: Fashion Lessons From Succession

November 16, 2021 at 07:05PM HBO’s hit series Succession is a family drama composed of chaotically evil, ultrawealthy, gorgeously dressed people. “It’s like being a superhero, only better,” Tom tells Cousin Greg in season one about being rich and powerful. “You get to wear a costume, only it’s designed by Armani and doesn’t make you look like a prick!” As we gleefully watch the Roy family implode through season three, attention must be paid to the clothes. Succession has sneakily become one of those sartorially blessed series whose fashion moments trend on Twitter as often as the plot twists do. With that in mind, here are style lessons we learned from this absurdly rich but horrible family. Remember, though: while you’re dressing for the job and the life you want, don’t forget to accessorize with a moral compass. Trust us, you’ll look cuter…

Iconic Pop Culture Tracksuits That Came Before Squid Game

November 16, 2021 at 06:35PM Squid Game’s tidal-wave-like domination has made ripples across all aspects of the pop culture landscape. Everyone is buying Vans sneakers, Halloween was flooded with Squid Game costumes, the Korean stars are now beloved on a global scale, and tracksuits are trending.

Sienna Miller Has Cracked Low-Key Winter Dressing With This Cosy Outfit

November 16, 2021 at 04:00PM We love nothing more than pouring over Sienna Miller’s impressive outfit archives whenever we could use a fresh dose of outfit inspiration, as her sheer sartorial versatility makes her so darn exciting to spotlight. While some celebrities wouldn’t dream of stepping out unless they’re entirely made-up and wearing the hottest new pieces, Miller’s innate fashion sense is just as prevalent in her most casual everyday wares as it is when she’s appearing on the red carpet. In fact, if it’s even possible, we find her off-duty looks all the more appealing, as, generally speaking, they’re easier for us to re-create.So, if you’re anything like us, and you’re suddenly searching for the ideal winter outfit to wear on repeat for the next six months, look no further than Sienna Miller, who was photographed in New York this week in…

November 16, 2021 at 04:36PM Fresh off the heels of her Gold Over America Tour, Simone Biles traded her leo for a dazzling dress at Monday night’s InStyle Awards in LA. Biles, who was honored by Amanda Gorman for “The Original” award, was a vision in forest green. The custom ruched gown from Aliétte - which admittedly got us thinking about holiday dressing - featured ribbon tie straps, side cutouts, and a high slit that showed off the gymnast’s toned legs. “I want to thank InStyle for this award and for getting me out of a leotard tonight,” Simone joked as she accepted her accolade. She accessorized her glamorous dress with drop earrings from Mateo New York, an emerald Judith Leiber clutch, and mint green Louboutins. It’s safe to say her style off the mat is just as impressive. Ahead, see the GOAT’s…
