Why Aren’t More Fashion Brands Designing Adaptive Clothing?

September 15, 2021 at 08:10PM Image Source: Courtesy of Slick Chicks / Roohi Photography “The first thing we do in our day is put on our undergarments and not all of us put them on one leg at a time,” says Helya Mohammadian, founder and CEO of adaptive underwear brand, Slick Chicks told POPSUGAR. “People have different experiences and some people need help changing.” Sure, there are a handful of brands with adaptive collections, or clothing designed around the needs and abilities of people with varying degrees of disability - there’s Nike, which produced the first ever hands-free sneaker, Go FlyEase, that allows wearers to slip feet in without zipping, tying or velcroing closed; ASOS created the first wheelchair-friendly jumpsuit back in 2018; and Target and Tommy Hilfiger sell adaptive clothing.

Could Engagement Watches Be the New Engagement Ring?

September 15, 2021 at 06:30PM Image Source: Courtesy of Cartier People have been proposing with engagement rings since the early 20th century, with the popularity of De Beers, the infamous British company who introduced the slogan “a diamond is forever” in 1947. But did you know that the engagement ring got its meaning way back in 850? According to the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), Pope Nicholas I declared that the engagement ring was a symbol of a man’s intent to marry. Back then women sported rings in gold, ivory, and copper to affirm their mutual love. Since then, engagement rings and proposals have been synonymous for future spouses. According to De Beers, 72 percent of spouses surveyed were proposed to with a ring in 2019. But with the average price of a diamond ring ($6,000) and the freedom to deter from genders,…

Telfar Just Announced a New Bag – Here’s How to Shop It

September 15, 2021 at 05:50PM For Fashion Week, designers are known to send a parade of models down the runway donning their upcoming collections, or, at the very least, debuting an editorial-style lookbook. However, in the aftermath of the pandemic, the biannual event is taking on an increasingly digital nature, and Telfar is the latest to deviate from the status quo. The brand did so with an unexpected twist, and in the end, fans got exactly what they wanted: a new handbag. There wasn’t the scenic runway you may be used to from the brand, showcasing its unisex designs often defined by cutouts, asymmetry and sporty attributes. And no, there was no lookbook, either. Instead, designer Telfar Clemens and a panel of 12 others held a press conference on Sunday in New York, with a dual Instagram Live for fans to join in.…

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

September 15, 2021 at 12:00PM Did we have any doubt that Beyoncé 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 Beyoncé 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, Beyoncé pulls up in a chauffeured car to reunite with her hubby at Orum House, an architectural masterpiece overlooking Bel Air. Another clip has Beyoncé tinkling on a grand piano, while the 128.54-carat Tiffany Diamond dangles…

Jenna Coleman Just Wore the Autumn Jacket Trend That’s All Over the High Street

September 15, 2021 at 10:57AM We don’t get to see a lot of Jenna Coleman out and about, and more’s the pity as we’ve been long-time fans of her style. The actress is often spotted wearing more understated looks but that doesn’t mean we haven’t noticed her stylish outfits. Last night, she once again proved that less is more wearing a head-to-toe Chanel look that’s the perfect autumnal outfit for when you don’t want to wear a fancy dress but still want to look chic. While attending this year’s Royal Academy of Arts summer exhibition party, Coleman opted for a pair of chevron trousers, a Chanel belt and a classic Chanel bouclé jacket. Although we loved the whole ensemble, it’s the jacket that really caught our eye and reminded us just why the fashion house’s bouclé is iconic. Created by Coco Chanel in the 1920s,…
