June 06, 2022 at 01:20AM Sydney Sweeney looked euphoric on the red carpet of the MTV Movie and TV Awards in an early 2000s-inspired look. Accompanied by “Euphoria” costar Javon Walton, Sweeney chose a throwback look that ticked all the Y2K boxes, from the crystallized hemline of her low-rise rhinestone skirt to her cropped white button-up. To ensure the entire Miu Miu look was cohesive, she matched the fabric of her viral skirt to her shoes, which featured chunky bedazzled heels, and her bra, which twinkled in the Santa Monica light from beneath her crop top. Small leather buckle detailing on her hips edged the look up just enough, and the end result looked like something pulled straight out of Paris Hilton’s wardrobe. This year, Sweeney is nominated for Best Performance in a Show for her role in HBO’s “Euphoria.” Her character, Cassie…

June 06, 2022 at 12:25AM The 2022 MTV Movie and TV Awards brings together a host of celebrities in film and television at The Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, CA. If last year’s in-person festivities were any indication, the stars are continuing to bring their A game, creating a visually pleasing red carpet. With Madison Bailey’s vibrant Versace skirt and Lana Condor’s bedazzled Armani Gown from 2021 still in mind, we eagerly await more breathtaking designs this year. Vanessa Hudgens is the host of the live ceremony, and she stunned in a Vera Wang cobalt blue off-shoulder dress with a flowing train. The “Say Ok” singer and her costar Andrew Garfield are nominated for the Best Musical Moment statue for their rendition of “Therapy” in the Netflix movie musical. Garfield himself is up for a few nominations tonight, most notably for his role…

June 03, 2022 at 10:50PM In recent years, the fashion industry has made more progress toward inclusive representation of transgender models. Some newer brands like New York City-based label Chromat have included trans models in runway shows and advertising campaigns early on, while other household names have made these changes much later, most notably with Victoria’s Secret hiring its first transgender model, Valentina Sampaio, in August 2019 (later hiring its first Black transgender model, Emira D'Spain, in February 2022), and Chanel recruiting 25-year-old Teddy Quinlivan as a new beauty face the same year. These symbolic steps mark a positive shift, although we need to move beyond these surface-level announcements and establish sustainable and long-lasting change. The industry has a long way to go before achieving equitable representation, both externally and internally. But none of the progress made so far would be possible without…

June 03, 2022 at 10:45PM As a child growing up in California, skate and surf culture was king, and I could find all my everyday staples at PacSun. Now that I’m no longer a teenager, though, I still want to shop at PacSun, and I know I’m not alone. From cute swimsuits to staple denim and cool T-shirts, all the basics I love wearing are at PacSun, and for an affordable price. If, however, you are like me and tend to stick to one tried-and-true store, sometimes it’s nice to switch it up. These are nine stores like PacSun; they’re great to shop at when you’re looking for something beachy, comfortable, and current. Whether you’re in the market for some fun summer swimsuits, flirty crop tops, or classic denim shorts, these are the places worth taking a look at. Some are a little…

June 03, 2022 at 10:15PM “As long as gay people don’t have their rights all across America,” the late gay liberation activist Marsha P. Johnson once said, “There’s no reason for celebration.” The unsung LGBTQ+ activist and drag performer was a prominent figure in the 1969 Stonewall riots, a series of demonstrations confronting discrimination that would unify LGBTQ+ community members around the world. Drawing on Johnson’s legacy, a group of LGBTQ+ models continue to speak out their truth and advocate for gay rights today. The LGBTQ+ community has made significant strides toward representation in fashion. From queer fashion designers amplifying the community year-round to LGBTQ+ influencers asserting their presence in heteronormative spaces, the fight continues with a new crop of trailblazers working across disciplines. Actress Laverne Cox, for example, recently helped design the first transgender Barbie, a move that will help LGBTQ+ children…
