Dua Lipa’s Denim-on-Denim Look Includes a Butterfly Halter With a Bodice Made of Wings

October 19, 2021 at 06:19PM Dua Lipa, queen of all trends Y2K, is collecting butterfly pieces for her wardrobe left and right. Perhaps it started when she hit the Grammys red carpet in this sparkling, slitted Versace gown back in March, which she then followed up at the afterparty with a chain-mail minidress in the same motif. But these days, her stylist Lorenzo Posocco must be sourcing high and low across the internet, even for Dua’s casual wear. If her one-shoulder butterfly crop top from Masha Popova is not enough to confirm the bug is abuzz, this denim Blumarine set, hailing from the label’s spring/summer 2022 runway, should convince you. The performer and Elton John collaborator outfitted herself in the full catwalk ensemble, metal chain belt and all, accessorized with a Mowalola trucker hat; rimless, lavender translucent lenses; and butterfly earrings that scurried…

The Banana Republic x Charles Harbison Collection Is Finally Here, and It’s Jaw-Dropping!

October 19, 2021 at 06:05PM Harlem’s Fashion Row, an organization dedicated to creating opportunities for BIPOC designers, has partnered with Banana Republic to launch a sustainable design competition, and this year’s winner is architect turned fashion designer Charles Harbison. For the New York-based artist, it’s a very momentous announcement. Having worked in the fashion industry for years, Harbison told Yahoo, he had sworn off competitions and vying for money and significance in those platforms. “I had really grown quite disillusioned. I felt that I was overlooked a few times for things that we were quite set up to win. Judges would even come to me to tell me that, and to inform me about politics that were outside of my knowledge that we’re determining a lot of those decisions,” Harbison said. Fast forward to present day, and this win feels like a full-circle…

Blue Ivy Crashes BeyoncĂ© and JAY-Z’s Romantic Date Night in New Tiffany & Co. Short Film

October 19, 2021 at 05:04PM BeyoncĂ© and JAY-Z just gave us a glimpse into their romantic date night in a new short film as part of Tiffany & Co.’s “About Love” campaign. Complete with pizza, champagne, and an interruption from their 9-year-old daughter Blue Ivy Carter, the Carters’ night out seems pretty true to reality. The Breakfast at Tiffany’s-inspired film, similar to the original campaign video, features the power couple in Schlumberger jewelry, including a Bird on a Rock brooch on JAY-Z and diamond earrings and a ring on BeyoncĂ©. In the duo’s first campaign together, BeyoncĂ© and JAY-Z embody a beautiful “modern love story,” and this bonus film does just that. As part of their partnership with Tiffany, the couple also launched a scholarship fund dedicated to students from five HBCUs, after they were criticized for promoting the oppressive colonial histories of…

Gemma Chan Carried This Angelic Louis Vuitton Dress Off the Runway Like Poetry in Motion

October 19, 2021 at 04:24PM Gemma Chan and her stylist Rebecca Corbin-Murray must have had their eyes glued to Louis Vuitton’s spring/summer 2022 runway. Chan attended the fashion show in Paris just 13 days before she stepped out for the Eternals premiere wearing look 30 from the collection, which was dubbed the “grand bal of time” by Nicolas Ghesquière for its references to Victorian dressing and the recirculation of trends over many years. It’s no coincidence that Gemma wanted to represent this idea at her movie premiere, since Eternals also has a storyline that spans multiple centuries. It’s safe to say she stood out from the rest of her castmates in her white angelic lace gown that came complete with a feathered cape she was sure to show off from every angle as it trailed the carpet behind her. Gemma kept her accessories…

Tiffany & Co.’s Sparkling Love Affair with Beyoncé and Jay-Z Twinkles On

October 19, 2021 at 03:00PM Did we have any doubt that BeyoncĂ© and Jay-Z’s day-to-day is filled with private jets, chauffeured cars and lots of bling? Which is why their intimate new campaign film for Tiffany & Co. could probably double as a documentary. In the BeyoncĂ© Jay-Z Tiffany film, Queen B sings “Moon River,” the song made popular by the 1961 film Breakfast at Tiffany’s, while winging towards Jay-Z on a private jet.  Not quite the “two drifters” that Audrey Hepburn sang about in the film while sitting on a window ledge looking out onto a fire escape in the film. Just before the film closes, BeyoncĂ© pulls up in a chauffeured car to reunite with her hubby at Orum House, an architectural masterpiece overlooking Bel Air. Another clip has BeyoncĂ© tinkling on a grand piano, while the 128.54-carat Tiffany Diamond dangles…

Angelina Jolie’s Daughter Zahara Wears Her Mom’s 2014 Oscars Dress to the Eternals Premiere

October 19, 2021 at 01:59PM Angelina Jolie attended the premiere of her new Marvel film Eternals alongside five of her children, who all advocated for sustainable fashion on the red carpet. Maddox, Vivienne, Knox, and Shiloh wore neutral-toned vintage and upcycled pieces, while eldest daughter Zahara Jolie-Pitt wore Angelina’s gorgeous silver Elie Saab gown from the 2014 Oscars. “My kids are all mixed with vintage and in my old Oscars dress,” Jolie told ET in a red carpet interview. “We did all vintage and upcycled my old stuff.” Jolie wore a strapless khaki Balmain gown with pointed-toe bronze heels, minimal bracelets, small silver hoop earrings, and a lip cuff. Maddox wore a black suit, Vivienne wore a white tea dress, Knox also went for a black suit, Shiloh chose an asymmetrical tan dress, and Zahara wore her mom’s silver gown from Saab’s fall/winter…
