What Is “Fendace” and Why Is Taking Over Social Media?

September 27, 2021 at 07:10PM Let’s be clear: “Fendace” is not a collaboration. At least, not according to the creative minds behind Fendi and Versace. For the finale of Milan’s Spring 2022 fashion week, the two luxury fashion houses joined forces to create “Fendace.” Not to be confused with a new celebrity couple Ă  la Bennifer or Brangelina, the collections saw Fendi directors Kim Jones and Silvia Venturini Fendi design 25 Versace looks while Donatella Versace reciprocated with 25 Fendi ensembles. Despite swirling rumours of a potential partnership, the mashup still came as a complete shock to many. Invitations provided no hint about what to expect as Versace’s summons ominously read, “Please join me for an intimate creative experience.” In fact, it wasn’t until the designers revealed themselves at the end of each other’s show that the audience fully comprehended what they had…

Dua Lipa’s Sheer “Fendace” Dress Is Sexy From the Front, the Back, and Even the Side

September 27, 2021 at 05:46PM Dua Lipa, you’ve done it again. A few days after making her runway debut at the Versace spring/summer 2022 show on Friday, the singer glittered in a striking dress sitting front row at the Versace by Fendi - or “Fendace” - presentation. Sure, she’s recently stunned in her fair share of dazzling outfits, but her latest look was sexy from the front, the back, and even the side. Embossed with the signature Fendi logo, the sheer, body-hugging dress not only sparkled from all angles, but also featured tiny cutout details along the sides. As if the dress itself wasn’t sexy enough, Dua’s bra top peeked out from the plunging neckline, while her matching G-string showed through the back of the naked gown. Stylist Lorenzo Posocco also accessorized the Fendace dress with an assortment of statement rings and strappy…

The Versace by Fendi “Fendace” Front Row Taps Dua Lipa, Niall Horan, and Elizabeth Hurley

September 27, 2021 at 05:40PM Versace by Fendi or “Fendace” is not a collaboration, but a spectacular fashion swap that celebrates the “friendship and the cultural impact” of two legendary - and once rivaling - Italian luxury houses. To close out Milan Fashion Week, Versace creative director Donatella Versace and Fendi creative director Kim Jones swapped roles for one night only to present two 25-look collections at the Versace family palazzo on Via GesĂą. As impressive as the new Fendace logo and the iconic fusion designs was the star-studded front row and the supermodel lineup. Versace by Fendi spring/summer 2022, otherwise titled “Fendace” or “The Swap” was modeled by ‘90s supers Naomi Campbell, Karen Elson, Amber Valletta, Kristen McMenamy, Shalom Harlow, Kate Moss, and newcomers Gigi Hadid and Lila Grace Moss Hack. Sultry Versace silhouettes were recoded with the interlocking Fendi logo in…

Prepare to Fall in Love With Jake Gyllenhaal and His Pale Pink Prada Tuxedo

September 27, 2021 at 04:45PM Jake Gyllenhaal sees your black-and-white tuxedo and raises you a perfectly pastel color palette. On Sept. 26, the handsome actor posed for photos at the 2021 Tony Awards in New York wearing a pale pink custom Prada tuxedo. He was styled by Michael Fisher, who shared photos on his Instagram Stories of the look being designed, and it’s clear this was perfectly made for Jake. He was nominated for his performance in Sea Wall/A Life, and lit up the carpet with his fresh take on a tuxedo. Despite ditching a traditional bow tie, Jake looked sharp as ever with a silk collar and a matching silk cummerbund around his waist to complete the all-pink look. Jake presented an award during the show with his Sunday In The Park With George costar Annaleigh Ashford. Check out the dapper photos…

Fashion Editors Agree: These 5 Autumn Pieces Are Worth Investing In

September 27, 2021 at 03:29PM After years of reporting on different trends as fashion editors, we often end up eschewing said trends altogether when it comes to our own wardrobes. Whether this is a result of feeling overwhelmed with the pure volume of clothes out there or a direct reaction to seeing trends come and go so quickly, many of us have ended up with a more streamlined selection of investment pieces that we wear year after year. Not only does this simplify things when getting dressed in the mornings, but it’s also a more sustainable approach to dressing. Of course, everyone has their own personal style and thoughts about what actually counts as an investment buy, but there are some key items we can all agree on. For autumn, this list includes buttery soft leather, premium knitwear, versatile shirts for layering and, of…

Fall 2021 Capsule WardobeSeptember 27, 2021 at 11:30AM Sharing my ideas for a fall 2021 capsule wardrobe; classic pieces you can wear the entire season and mix and match!  Hi friends! How are ya? How was the weekend? The weather has been gorgeous here, so it was nice to spend lots of time outside. We had gyros and baklava at the Greek festival and spent an evening at the pool with friends. We don’t have a lot of swimming weather left, so we’re living it up while we can! For today, let’s talk about fashion-y things. While I don’t stick to a true capsule wardrobe – let’s be real, I love to shop way too much – I definitely love choosing more classic pieces that I can rotate throughout the season. When you make thousands of decisions all day long, it’s nice to…

So Many People Are Buying These High-Street Jeans, and I Can Totally See Why

September 27, 2021 at 08:00AM Think back to the late ‘90s. We watched Friends religiously, Green Day T-shirts were all the rage, nu-metal culture was on the rise, shoes came in the form of Etnies or DCs and you couldn’t move for the amount of Dickies and Carhartt being worn by the nation’s teenagers. Today, however, I want to talk about the '90s jeans we all wore. From my memory, the predominant look was an ultra-baggy style that had to be so long and loose they soaked up any amount of water on the floor. If it rained, you would inadvertently end up with a pair of two-tone jeans. And much like other Y2K trends, these trousers are back. Right now, one pair in question is incredibly popular: Weekday’s Rail Mid Loose Straight Jeans. It’s easy to see why—these are classic '90s baggy jeans with a lowish waist…

Don’t Fight It: This Y2K Jeans Trend Is Officially Back

September 27, 2021 at 08:00AM People got really hyped up about Y2K. It was the turn of the century, you could finally listen to that Prince song and mean it, plus there was a lot of talk about how there was a computer bug that was going to turn everything off at the stroke of midnight, as our PCs wouldn’t be able to understand the switch from 1999 to 2000. While programming disasters were (mostly) averted, I can’t say the same for fashion. Y2K was a particular sort of era. Sure, it was a simpler time when people could still wear jeans or a nice top and trousers to a red carpetevent, but there were fedora hats, Juicy Couture trackies and lots of pointy-toe heels that everyone seemed to wear with bootcut jeans (shudders).The thing is Y2K trends are booming. Thanks to Gen…
