Mortals Beware – Halsey’s Crimson Corset at Bella Hadid’s NYFW Party Is Hauntingly Vampiric

September 10, 2021 at 06:59PM Prompted by a love for Avril Lavigne so strong my ringtone was “Sk8er Boi” for the entirety of middle school, I practically begged my mom to buy me a pair of low-rise black grunge jeans with red thread accents to look just like my favorite Canadian punk-pop star. Many style evolutions later, Halsey - who recently released her grunge-pop album If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power - threw on an almost identical pair of The Attico jeans while on a date night with Alevy Aydin at Bella Hadid’s New York Fashion Week party. “Mom and dad’s night out. ❤️‍🔥 ,” Halsey captioned an Instagram post on Sept. 9. Since the album’s whirlwind debut - accompanied by an IMAX film - the “You Asked For This” singer has continued to embrace her gothic style with pieces like…

September 10, 2021 at 06:50PM Look no further for the standout star of New York Fashion Week - Aaron Rose Philip has arrived on the scene. The Antiguan American model and activist made her exclusive runway debut during Moschino’s spring/summer 2022 show at Bryant Park on Thursday, marking a big moment of representation for the Black disabled transgender community. Aaron, who was born with cerebral palsy, owned the catwalk in a yellow skirt suit adorned with kitschy plastic trinkets that gave a nod to the collection’s whimsical, nostalgic feel, exuding sunshine itself on the otherwise overcast day. At the end of the show, Creative Director Jeremy Scott brought Aaron back out on the runway so the crowd could properly celebrate her historic walk. “Disabled people, models and talents matter so much.” Reflecting on the major accomplishment following the presentation, Aaron wrote on Instagram:…

JhenĂ© Aiko’s Gold Dress Comes With a Sky-High Slit That Has a Mind of Its Own

September 10, 2021 at 05:22PM JhenĂ© Aiko could write a book on commanding a red carpet - just look at her latest. At the Daily Front Row’s annual award show at New York Fashion Week on Thursday, the singer posed in a metallic gold dress so major, she looked like a trophy come to life. Her goddess-like gown is by Toni Maticevski, which she teamed with gold Sydney Evan jewelry and strappy Christian Louboutin stilettos to match, with the help of stylist Icon Billingsley. Though the metallic in itself was a showstopper, the daring mile-high slit on JhenĂ©’s dress might have been the highlight, showing off her legs for days. “a living light ✨,” she wrote alongside photos from the event on her Instagram afterwards. I mean, I’d say that’s a pretty accurate description of her radiating look. Get a closer look at…

You Want Glamour? LaQuan Smith Reveals His Sexy New Collection Atop the Empire State Building

September 10, 2021 at 05:05PM In case you missed it, the fashion landscape is changing at lightning speed in our hyperdigital era, but if there’s one designer who’s clearly imagined what the new generation looks like and then successfully brought that visualization to life, it’s LaQuan Smith. In a historical move on more than one account, the designer became the first ever to hold a New York Fashion Week show at the Empire State Building, and we still need a moment to process the level of iconicism. But it wasn’t enough to woo the onlooking crowd of editors, retail buyers, and celebs such as Lori Harvey, The City Girls, and Ciara in attendance - the designer also teamed up with new NYFW sponsor Afterpay for a “see now, buy now” initiative, releasing part of his spring/summer ‘22 collection to shop (in installments, nonetheless)…

September 10, 2021 at 04:41PM Outer Banks star Madison Bailey and her girlfriend, athlete Mariah Linney, win the award for best dressed couple at New York Fashion Week, hands down. The stylish pair made it out for CFDA’s Fashion Fund Toast in pantsuits that were clearly coordinated, but not overly matchy-matchy. Outfitted by Bailey’s stylist Kyle Kagamida, Mariah dressed down a khaki-colored, relaxed Nanushka suit with white leather low-top sneakers, while Madison went for two-tone neutrals in Alexandre Vauthier. She finished her outfit with a Tyler Ellis Ava Box, vegan heels from PÄ«feri, and stunning, sculptural rose gold and pearl earrings from Nana Fink. New York street style photographer Antonio Griffith was there to capture their fashion moment ahead of the event, and let’s just say we’re glad we’ll always have these adorable shots to look back on.

September 10, 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.

Katie Holmes Just Swapped Her Favourite Baggy Jeans for This Trend Instead

September 10, 2021 at 08:00AM Katie Holmes, queen of low-key trends, just wore a high-key trend in a very low-key way. And this is why everyone is obsessed with what she wears. She doesn’t try too hard, yet she can pull off almost anything. The trend in question is cut-outs, and they’re wildly popular this summer. I basically shop for a living, and I come across cut-out pieces on practically every shopping site I peruse (of which there are many).While walking around NYC recently, as she often does, Holmes wore a crop top with a long white skirt with cut-outs at the waist (!) and her signature black leather Birkenstocks. Based on my Instagram, which includes many a fashion person wearing cut-out items these days, this outfit is sure to have plenty of fans. If you count yourself as one of them, scroll to shop…
