June 02, 2022 at 07:05PM “Stranger Things” season four delivers a new wave of supernatural mayhem, questionable haircuts, and, of course, fashion inspiration. With the latest episodes partially set in the fictional town of Lenora Hills, CA, there’s a noticeable shift in the cast’s wardrobe to channel the laidback California aesthetic of the ‘80s. Think: patterned button downs, graphic tees, and pastel colorways galore. As it turns out, not every outfit worn on screen was culled from a vintage store; some were made specifically for the show in partnership with Quiksilver, and fans can shop the exact pieces online right now. The Netflix show’s costume designer, Amy Parris, worked with Quiksilver over the span of three years to create a collection of clothes inspired by '80s surf culture, digging into the brand’s archives to revive designs from the time period. These re-created styles…

June 02, 2022 at 06:25PM The Y2K aesthetic began to see a resurgence in 2020, a time when we all could used a little optimism in the form of a playful, kind of quirky outfit. It started with sparkly pink bags, fuzzy bucket hats, and butterfly clips popping up on our Instagram feeds, and now, two years in, we’ve learned how to style these old trends like pros all over again. If you’re curious about Y2K fashion and want to know where the aesthetic comes from, recall some of the most iconic films, TV series, and music videos of the early ‘00s. Films like “Mean Girls,” shows like “The Simple Life,” and music videos like “Bills, Bills, Bills” by Destiny’s Child and “Lucky” by Britney Spears introduced the essentials of Y2K fashion: crop tops, cardigans, camisoles, low-rise pants, and tennis skirts. Other hallmarks…

June 02, 2022 at 06:00PM Royals keep quite the fashion archive. The Cambridges and Sussexes often borrow jewelry and clothing items previously worn by family members, and at Trooping the Colour on June 2, it was Prince Louis sought inspiration from the past. In honor of his first carriage procession during the annual military parade, which this year kicks off Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee celebration, the four-year-old wore a similar sailor suit his dad Prince William wore at Trooping the Colour in 1985, when he was just two years old. In sweet photos from the event, Louis, who is the youngest child of William and Kate Middleton, waved with his siblings as the carriage made its way from Buckingham Palace to Horse Guards Parade, and back again. The 1985 parade, which saw William in the same sailor suit, was a significant one for…

June 02, 2022 at 05:43PM Kicking off the Platinum Jubilee weekend at Buckingham Palace, Kate Middleton rode alongside Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, in a horse-drawn carriage as the duo waved to crowds at Queen Elizabeth II’s birthday parade during Trooping the Colour on Thursday, June 2. The Duchess of Cambridge made a stately appearance in a crisp white double-breasted blazer-style dress with accentuated shoulders and sharp lapels and a knee-length skirt by Alexander McQueen. She previously wore the design at the G7 Leaders’ reception in June 2021, a sustainable choice that isn’t surprising given that this isn’t the first time she’s reworn garments (her blue Catherine Walker coat is a favorite, for example). Middleton enhanced the regal look of her ensemble with an equally elegant hat from Philip Treacy in navy and white. Her hair, styled in a twisted knot, was pulled back…

June 02, 2022 at 04:30PM Meghan Markle attended Trooping the Colour, also known as Queen Elizabeth II’s birthday parade, to kick off Platinum Jubilee weekend in England. This marks the first royal appearance for Markle in two years, since leaving the UK in March 2020 to relocate with Prince Harry. Markle, who did not take a spot on the balcony alongside other royals, was seen at the major general’s office overlooking the Whitehall parade grounds in an off-the-shoulder navy dress and wide-brim hat from Stephen Jones Millinery. The 40-year-old author, editor, and advocate is known for sporting sophisticated and clean color palettes like this one, which Princess Diana also happened to wear quite often. Diana wore navy-and-white suiting for several events through the late ‘80s and early '90s accessorized with matching hats, many of which were meticulously designed by Philip Somerville. Markle’s look…

June 02, 2022 at 03:00PM Versace’s Medusa platform shoes first hit the runway during the fall 2021 season, catching the eyes of shoppers everywhere. Soon, they hit the celebrity fashion circuit, notably worn by Ariana Grande and Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, who caused a spike in sales, according to the fashion house. While they certainly looked easy to strut in and were a great complement to a minidress, the question remained: were they actually comfortable? The chunky Mary-Jane pumps, with their signature rounded square toe and crystal-encrusted ankle strap, are built on a 3-inch platform and stacked with a 6.5-inch heel. The design is a clear nod to the ‘70s - and a favorite of creative director Donatella Versace. “Donatella has always loved platforms,” the fashion house tells POPSUGAR over email. “You will almost always see her wearing them.” Being that I have a track…
