If You Love This Season’s Checked Trend, You Need to See Mango’s Latest Drop

September 11, 2021 at 06:00AM It’s not often that a high-street fashion brand invests heavily in a niche seasonal trend, but clearly, Mango knew what it was doing when it created its Checkers Game capsule. Composed of a tight edit of autumn-ready pieces fashioned out of dramatic checked fabrics, this collection will be a dream for those of us who have been enjoying A/W 21’s foray into graphic prints. Needless to say, every member of the Who What Wear editorial team is besotted.After a quick survey, it transpired that the leading looks in the collection included the checked long-sleeve turtleneck, which will be a godsend in the layering department this season, whether it’s under a white shirt or a summer dress or styled with wide-leg trousers. The minidress was another winner thanks to its retro appeal and stylish flared sleeves. We think it would…

The Fashion People Have Spoken: These 8 Brands Currently Rule

September 11, 2021 at 05:23AM In the ever-changing game of “which brand does everyone want to buy now?” there are a few obvious blockbuster fashion houses that have remained at the top of the tree for some time. You all know Bottega Veneta is still trending, that Gucci is still very desirable and that, given half a chance and an heiress-level bank account, we’d snap up everything from The Row. But what of the less obvious labels that fashion people are clamouring to get? Which pieces are in high demand for photoshoots, celebrity outfits, Instagram snaps and—due to the timing right now—fashion month street style opportunities? What are the names we’re constantly talking about in the office, and where do we most commonly see “sold out” signs?

It’s No Surprise J Lo Chose This Sexy Gown For Her Red Carpet Comeback With Ben Affleck

September 10, 2021 at 09:50PM We may have first heard about Bennifer’s rekindled romance months ago, but the couple had yet to make an official red carpet appearance … until now. That’s right, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck hit the carpet together for the first time since the Gigli premiere in 2003, and in true J Lo fashion, she chose a jaw-dropping dress for the big occasion. For The Last Dune premiere at the Venice Film Festival on Friday, the multi-hypenate wore a satin white couture gown from Georges Hobeika featuring a plunging neckline embellished with pure white crystals, as well as a high leg slit. She paired the stunning look with sparkly Cartier jewelry and a very handsome Ben Affleck on her arm, who wore a smart tux that let J Lo’s dress do the talking. Ahead, get a closer view at…

I’ll Be Wearing This $12 T-Shirt All Fall Long

September 10, 2021 at 09:35PM Fall will be here faster than you can say “pumpkin spice,” so now’s a better time than any to stock up on your cold weather essentials. But, while everyone has been adding sweaters and boots to their e-carts, I’ve been on a desperate search for the perfect T-shirt. You see, I live in San Francisco, where it’s sunny, gorgeous, and temperate year-round. So, I wanted to find a somewhat elevated tee that I could slip underneath my jackets, but isn’t so heavy that I would overheat. Fortunately, I found a little slice of fashion perfection with A New Day’s Elbow Sleeve Mock Turtleneck T- Shirt ($12). Made with a cotton-modal blend, this shirt is ultra-soft and lightweight. (Basically, it’s like a second skin.) The sleeves hit nicely at the elbow, striking a happy medium between a tee and…

Is Chloë’s Hot Pink Hourglass Blazer the Star of “Have Mercy,” or What?

September 10, 2021 at 08:18PM Forgive me, Zerina Akers, for fixating all of my attention on just one of Chloë’s looks in the “Have Mercy” video, but I just can’t help myself. The hot pink, plaid hourglass blazer that Bailey’s stylist scored her for the very first shot is just that phenomenal. Since it’s from high-fashion street wear brand Area, it does cost a pretty penny (just under $2k), but is not your average blazer what with the crystal-embellished pocket flaps, décolletage-framing sweetheart neckline, cinched waist, and eye-catching cutout at the back. Zerina and Chloë decided to style it with hotpants, square sunglasses, and a dazzling diamond choker necklace to play up the details, and we are certainly feeling the vibe. Even though we also see Chloë in a metallic Alexandre Vauthier Couture jacket, shapely Schiaparelli number, and custom Rey Ortiz two-piece throughout…

I Now Want Nothing More Than to Roam the Mall With Kacey Musgraves in a ’90s Versace Look

September 10, 2021 at 07:25PM Kacey Musgraves is feeling nostalgic. In her new music video for “Simple Times” - a song off Star-Crossed that fondly looks back at her analog adolescence - the singer enlisted rapper Princess Nokia, actress Victoria Pedretti, and drag star Symone to roam around the mall in outfits paying tribute to ‘90s supermodels. To drive home the video’s bratty aesthetic, the four wear metallic miniskirts paired with matching crop tops and socks under platform heels. Though the video also parallels the 1999 cult classic Jawbreaker, the outfits appear to be directly inspired by a Gianni Versace 1994 campaign shot by Richard Avedon and starring Nadja Auermann, Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer, Stephanie Seymour, Christy Turlington, and Bridget Hall. See Kacey’s homage ahead. Related: Kacey Musgraves Eats a Giant Cookie While Posing in Moschino x Sesame Street’s Collection Continue Reading… Author…

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…

Model Aaron Rose Philip Just Made Her Runway Debut For Moschino: “Disabled Talents Matter”

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:…
