August 24, 2021 at 05:25PM What happens when you mix A-list actors, designer fashion, and dramatic storylines? You get Fracture, Balmain’s new short-form series with Channel 4. The fashion house recently announced its latest collaboration with the drama series starring Tommy Dorfman, Charles Melton, Jesse Jo Stark, and Ajani Russell. Not only is Fracture the first type of fashion-slash-entertainment partnership for both parties involved, but it will also mark the debut of Olivier Rousteing’s Balmain fall 2021 collection with all of the characters wearing pieces from the line. “The fashion industry is in need of new narratives and new ideas,” Olivier told Variety about the show. “Maybe it was the pandemic that pushed us - but for this year, my team and I were determined to break away from the pack … We spent a lot of time brainstorming and discussing the possibilities…

Olivia Rodrigo Made Sure We Saw Britney Spears’s Roberto Cavalli Dress Baby One More Time

August 24, 2021 at 05:18PM Olivia Rodrigo’s “Brutal” music video incorporates designers old and new, but all are in fitting with her signature y2k style that Chloe and Chenelle Delgadillo have helped her fine tune over the past year. Rodrigo tapped Petra Collins, who also directed “Good 4 U”, for the project, and Collins enlisted collaborator Ron Hartleben to curate outfits for the rest of the supporting cast. They happen to wear tutus by Capezio in scene one, where we see Rodrigo sporting Britney Spears’s exact Roberto Cavalli minidress from the 2003 American Music Awards. As someone who values sustainability, it’s incredibly cool to see Rodrigo repurposing clothing, but even more rad that she sourced from such an iconic pop culture moment, since she’s clearly a fan of Britney and her famous wardrobe. The 2000s nostalgia continues through the rest of the costumes,…

Meet the Best Friends Who Opened an Instagram-Famous Motel During the Pandemic

August 24, 2021 at 05:09PM When COVID-19 was declared a pandemic in March 2020, April Brown and Sarah Sklash were elbow-deep in their renovation of a rundown 1970s motel. Facing strict time constraints, a dwindling budget and an ominous uncertainty brought on by the pandemic, the Canadian entrepreneurs had a turbulent journey ahead of them — and it was all filmed for a Netflix original show, Motel Makeover. The six-episode docuseries takes viewers alongside Brown and Sklash’s process of gutting, renovating and launching The June Motel in Sauble Beach, Ontario during the thick of the pandemic. Luckily, the best-friends-turned-business-partners don’t shy away from a challenge.

But for their second motel renovation, things were more complicated,…

A Short History of the Women Who Have Worn Tiffany’s Iconic Yellow Diamond

August 24, 2021 at 05:05PM The Tiffany Yellow Diamond is one of the most iconic pieces of jewelery in fashion history. The South African diamond was first unearthed in the country’s Kimberley Mines in 1877 as a 287.42 carat rough stone, and later bought by Tiffany & Co. founder Charles Lewis Tiffany in 1878 for $18,000 (with an estimated worth of $30 million today). Being one of the largest gemstone discoveries of the 19th century, the Tiffany diamond helped to define the brand as a diamond authority for at least the past 100 years. Throughout such an expansive history in the public eye, the diamond has only been worn by four famous women - Audrey Hepburn, American socialite Mrs. E. Sheldon Whitehouse, Lady Gaga, and Beyoncé Knowles. After being bought by Tiffany, the 287.42 carat rough stone was sent to Paris to be…

Cardi B Wears Oversize Diamond Encrusted “Kulture” Hoops With 5 Chainlink Chokers to Match

August 24, 2021 at 03:50PM Is it fair to say Cardi B is wearing your pet’s weight in diamond jewelry? Honestly, just about. The American rapper and actress tapped Jewelry Unlimited and Elliot Eliantte to customize her chunky, chainlink pieces for the Hot 97 Summer Jam, where she performed with Offset in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Outfitted in a full look by Chrome Hearts, Cardi showed off her baby bump onstage in a white ribbed tank dress, checkered leather jacket, and leather toe-less stiletto booties. Aside from sporting her massive engagement ring (What, that old thing? Where?), Cardi wore - count ‘em! - 14 incredible bracelets encrusted with sparkling stones and five chokers, along with a fistful of diamond rings. Even though they are likely not as heavy as the rest of her accessories, Cardi’s “Kulture” hoops were really the icing on the…

August 24, 2021 at 12:50AM Fall is on the horizon and it’s a time of mixed emotions for fans of sundresses and white jeans (myself included).

Taylor Swift’s Reformation Dress Is Sold Out – But It’s Available in 3 Other Chic Silhouettes

August 23, 2021 at 10:35PM Less than a day after posting her first TikTok video, Taylor Swift continues to embrace the cottagecore aesthetic. Ahead of the release of her upcoming Red (Taylor’s Version) album, available Nov. 19, the “Cardigan” singer dressed up in a handful of stylish outfits corresponding with her different musical eras. But the look that truly caught our eye was a pale yellow Joyce Dress in Felicity from Reformation, aka her ultimate Fearless ensemble. The down side? It’s basically already sold out. After hearing Fearless (Taylor’s Version), which dropped April 9, we can’t just let this charming linen look go, which is why we tracked down the understated print in three other sweet (and sustainable) silhouettes perfect for picnics, walks through the park, or posing for your own imaginary album cover.

We’re Rooting for You, Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum

August 23, 2021 at 10:10PM We interrupt your internet browsing with some very important news: Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz might be an item. It’s the coupling that we never knew we needed — so let’s discuss. It all started on August 18, when the pair were spotted on an outing in NYC. Tatum is seen riding a black BMX bike with Kravitz walking next to him. At one point, she even hopped on the back of the bike to ride along, which is objectively adorable. The snaps quickly prompted the internet to beg the question: are they or aren’t they together? these photos are DERAILING MY DAY pic.twitter.com/3CwJCipilJ — kaitlyn (@kaitmcnab) August 19, 2021 One of the hints pointing towards the former is Tatum’s apparent change of style in the presence of Kravitz, who is known for her elevated sense of fashion.…
