September 17, 2021 at 06:00AM New York Fashion Week has come and gone, and after getting a chance to see clothes back in person again, we’re excited to give you the digital download on the standout trends we saw come down the runways. From our favorite small brands like Sandy Liang and Maryam Nassir Zadeh to the coveted collections of Proenza Schouler and Khaite, there was a lot to love this show season. We’re talking full-on fringe, sheer fabrics galore, and cutouts continuing on. It’s safe to say you should start getting excited about 2022 fashion.We’re not expecting you to take time out of your busy day to look through hundreds of runway images, but luckily for you, it’s been our job this past week to take notes and give a short cheat sheet on the best of the shows. Trust us when we say the trend…

September 17, 2021 at 08:00AM If there’s anything I’m very strict about when it comes to my beauty routine, it’s my body lotion. I might forget a step in my nighttime skincare routine, but I never forget to put body lotion on after I shower or in the mornings, even I don’t shower. For the most part, it’s paid off. Aside from the occasional eczema flare-up on my hands, arms, or neck, I have pretty smooth skin. But since I’m a curious person and like to question everything, I wanted to know if there were some things I was missing when it comes to body-lotion application. So I reached out to dermatologist Naissan O. Wesley, MD, FACMS, of Skin Care and Laser Physicians of Beverly Hills to get her tips and to see what role body lotions play in reducing premature ageing or the signs of ageing.…

September 17, 2021 at 08:00AM After a long year of not getting my hair cut, I'm more excited than ever to get back into the salon. Admittedly, I’m not the adventurous type, so I’ll be resurrecting my grown-out bangs, but you’ve come to the right place if you’re itching to try something new. It’s a truth universally acknowledged that French girls are the epitome of style, so why not take a little inspiration from chic Parisians? To get the scoop on French haircuts that are popular with L.A. girls like me, I tapped David Pierre, founder and creative director of The Hair Atelier in West Hollywood, California. The French transplant is knowledgeable about hair trends on both sides of the Atlantic, so I knew he’d be the best stylist to ask. Scroll down to see his expert opinion. “Curtain bangs or any sort of fringe, in general, will automatically…

September 17, 2021 at 08:00AM The knitted dress trend has come back in a seriously big way in 2021. You might not have realised this because in many ways it’s the kind of frock that never really goes out of fashion. However, there’s one key component of this year’s style that French women have been wearing forever. When it comes to knitted dresses in France, les françaises are more likely to opt for a fitted version. No saggy, loose-fitting sacks for our friends across the channel—thank you very much. Instead, it’s about considered knitwear that is more body-con and has some kind of structure. Case in point: Khaite’s chic black version which I spotted on Camille Charrière some time ago. The sweetheart neckline is what really makes this dress sing, but I love the demure nature of the long sleeves, too. This season, the brand has brought…

September 17, 2021 at 08:00AM I don’t know about you, but the past year has felt long. I’ve got more grey hair and more wrinkles, and despite going to bed earlier, I’m still tired. There’s no denying that I’ve felt like I’ve aged faster in lockdown. While there’s nothing inherently wrong with this (I have no issues with changing hair colour or a few lines on my face), the speed at which it has happened has been a little disconcerting. I want to feel like myself again, and for me, that means getting a haircut. Over the past few months, I’ve lost count of the number of people who have said their hair needs cutting, from my husband to my colleagues as well as my parents. The craving to get a chop has been strong. Personally, I’m desperate to get my hair cut back into a…

September 17, 2021 at 06:15AM Emma wears the Free People leather trousers from this week’s shopping picks, with a Shrimps cardigan and Essen pumps.As an editor at Who What Wear, I typically spend a lot of time looking at new-in products, and so every week, I update this story with the pieces that have caught my eye and that really stand out. The weather recently has seen us all return to our knitwear and raincoats, and so I’ve started compiling my autumn wish list. Below, I’ve included some of the chicest autumn-ready items I’ve seen this year, including a beautiful printed dress, chunky pair of boots and a Simone Rocha dress I’ve been dreaming about for years. So whether you’re looking to buy, browse or discover something new, keep scrolling for pieces I love and think are worth investing in, from the high street to designer labels. I…

September 17, 2021 at 06:08AM Puffer coats have long been considered practical, but stylish? Thanks to a host of designer interpretations of the cosy, borderline-ugly outerwear, they’ve become something of a fashion girl must-have. Arguably it was last year when the puffer coat’s sartorial status really reached its peak, with the likes of Bottega Veneta creating a very special leather puffer coat, which swiftly made its way to the top of many an editor and influencer’s wish list. But then in 2021, we started off the year (yet again) spending a lot more time outside, and the duvet coat became a non negotiable essential for many of us, and not just those with budgets for the designer versions. Back in February, according to global fashion search platform Lyst, searches for “duvet coat" were "rising quickly and are currently up 34% since the start of the month”. People were also searching for “maxi down coat”,…

September 17, 2021 at 06:06AM When it comes to designer bags, our wish list is as long as the arms we’d dutifully carry them in. Of course, brands like Hermès, Chanel, and Loewe feature prolifically on it, as do new-wave labels such as Khaite and Wandler. But the design house that claims the most positions has to be Chloé.  Relatively speaking, Chloé hasn’t been in the bag-making game all that long. Its first foray into arm-candy territory came in 2005 when it debuted the Paddington, a gold padlock-adorned leather tote, which sold out its first run of 8000 handbags before a single one even hit the boutique shelves, breaking retail records. Who What Wear UK Editor in Chief Hannah Almassi carries the Chloè C crossbody handbag. Fast-forward 16 years, the French fashion powerhouse has bestowed us with more It bags than we can count. There’s Tess, Drew, C, Nile, Darryl, Faye, Aby,…
