September 16, 2021 at 12:00AM Maxi dresses are ideal in that they promote freedom and prevent the awful sweaty feeling of jeans, but all long dresses are not created equal. The simple tank and t-shirt styles always manage to cling in all the wrong places and are too casual for anything more than running errands. So now that fall is here, we’re searching for options you’ll actually want to wear. These styles range from basic maxis to wear daily, to statement-making ones that’ll make you feel fabulous. Add a pair of high heels or tall riding boots, and you’ll be ready to impress no matter the occasion.

September 15, 2021 at 10:15PM Celebrities left it all on the Met Gala steps on Sunday: romantic gowns, elaborate but inspiring ensembles, and even golden robot armor. But inside the venue, a few attendees took the opportunity to wear a second outfit just as extravagant as the first. For Met Gala cochair Billie Eilish, who played on this year’s “American Fashion” theme with a Marilyn Monroe-inspired ballgown, it only made sense to stick with her Old Hollywood inspiration and change into a wine-colored Oscar de la Renta cape dress. Like something straight off of a Hollywood red carpet from the 1950s, Billie’s dress featured a corset-style bodice, a ruffled hem, and a flowing chiffon skirt with a thigh-high slit that gave us another peek at the tattoo on her right leg. The complementary sheer cape was fastened at the base of her throat…

September 15, 2021 at 09:34PM When sustainable fashion designer Anna Molinari initially created a dress made out of newspaper headlines she’d collected from March 2020 to March 2021, she wanted it to serve as both a memorial to all of those we’ve lost and a reminder that there is still much work to be done. But one viral TikTok and one Met Gala later, people are dubbing the dress their favorite Met Gala look this year - and it wasn’t even worn at the event. The incredible dress - or work of art, as many TikTokers have called it - features a fully boned corset, a mesh turtleneck that can be worn over the mouth and nose, and a cold-shoulder cutout for the vaccine, all made of recycled newspapers covering the good, bad, and ugly happening in America, from COVID-19 to the Black…

September 15, 2021 at 09:25PM Rosé’s Met Gala debut was certainly one to remember. The Blackpink member and solo artist, who was one of the first two female K-pop stars to be invited in the event’s history - the other being CL - walked the red carpet alongside Saint Laurent creative director Anthony Vaccarello, wearing a piece from the designer’s winter 2021 collection. If the little black dress with a large white bow happened to look familiar, that’s because Zendaya wore the exact piece on the cover of British Vogue’s October issue. But while the two may be rocking the same dress, the stars exude completely different vibes. Rosé, who’s a Saint Laurent ambassador, chose light graphic eye makeup, a large floral choker, and dangly earrings to go with her look, while Zendaya opted for minimal jewelry and smoky dark eyes. See how…

September 15, 2021 at 09:05PM This season, we’re seeing the continued appreciation of the knee high boot. The sleek, sophisticated look is being reinvented to make the silhouette more exciting and fashion forward. We’ve loved the knee high shape for a long time, and now it’s back with a distinctly 2021 twist, like western-inspired styles and bold snake print. Fall is coming, and it’s time to break out the boots. These nine knee-high styles deserve your attention this season. We like them paired with mini dresses, longer silhouettes, maybe with a slit, and even with pants tucked in. They’re the perfect footwear choice for that in-between weather the season is known for.

But when one in four US adults have a disability, and diversity…
