I Just Tried on 6 Autumn Staples From the Coolest Up-and-Coming Brand

October 01, 2021 at 06:00AM I’m always on the lookout for new fashion brands, particularly ones that manage to combine elevated design with a sustainable approach to style. So you can imagine my excitement when I stumbled across Aligne, a lesser-known label that merges impeccable aesthetics and affordable price points with greater transparency around how its clothes are made, from the packaging and materials it uses to its transportation and manufacturing processes. That’s not something you see every day.Having browsed the brand’s new-in section, I can also confirm that it’s is a gold mine of autumn essentials. Think slouchy tailored trousers, knitted vests, colour-pop coats and ruffled blouses—essentially a ready-made capsule for the cooler months. I got a chance to try on some of the key pieces from the new collection and hand-picked six items that particularly captured my attention.So what’s my verdict? I love it all, but the leather skirt and the…

31 Pretty Pullovers to Fill That Sweater-Sized Hole in Your Wardrobe, Starting at $20

September 30, 2021 at 11:25PM Once we smell the crispness in the air and spot the falling leaves, we can practically hear sweaters calling our names. Whether we’re looking for something cropped to pair with our favorite jeans, or a roomy option to pull over pants, there’s something about a cozy knit that is synonymous with the season. In that spirit, we settled in with our favorite fall beverage, and made a list of the sweaters we wish were actually wearing right now (or later on autumn adventures). And, since not everyone wants oversized picks, we also found some short-sleeved options we love, too. Settled in with some pumpkin-flavored anything, and check them all out ahead.

Corset Tops Are the Sexy Fall Trend That Looks Good on Everyone

September 30, 2021 at 09:35PM Although the corset dates back to the 1600s - defined as a tightly fitting top with a boned bodice that supports and flatters the waist - it’s transformed through the years. And while it can most recently be traced to the stage that is Netflix’s Bridgerton, the Regenycore trend has lent itself to a more modern interpretation of the look. Some of our favorite iterations come in denim or leather with thick piping and straps, bound by a zipper at the back rather than lace ties. We’re seeing people style them over big button-downs to cinch in and trace the shape of their figures or with nothing underneath, teamed with loose, low-slung pants or a blazer. If you want to forgo sleeves altogether, you also have the option of layering an underbust corset over a tee for extra…

Taylor Swift and Tommy Dorfman Redefine a Typical Bridesmaid Dress at Lena Dunham’s Wedding

September 30, 2021 at 05:16PM When Lena Dunham married musician Luis Felber at Soho’s Union Club in London, she wore three custom Christopher Kane gowns and enlisted the Scottish designer to create bridesmaid dresses, too. It was important for Lena to have her closest pals in attendance at the 60-person reception, which was detailed exclusively to Vogue and photographed by Jonny Ruff. Taylor Swift, Tommy Dorfman, actor Myha'la Herrold, and more family and friends assembled as the bridal party, forgoing those classic, silk “getting ready” robes for beautiful floral dresses from The Vampire’s Wife, which they’d then swap for the silver Christopher Kane midis that are nothing short of extraordinary. Taylor’s own design came with a gemstone waistband and shoulder straps, and Tommy’s was a high-neck halter silhouette. The metallic pleated lamĂ© fabric is signature for the Christopher Kane brand (as you’ll see…
