7 Filipino Designers Showcasing Their Culture Through Their Work

October 28, 2021 at 05:55PM From high fashion to fashion accessories, local talent is in no short supply in the Philippines. However, according to Paloma Urquijo Zobel, founder of PIOPIO: “Due to Colonialism, Filipinos were made to believe for many years that our culture and heritage were subpar to those of the West and there had been hesitancy (until recently) to support local.” Zobel and several other Filipino founders are part of the ongoing conversation hoping to encourage more local designers to create clothing, accessories and footwear to preserve and celebrate the culture. Whether you enjoy sustainable accessories or artisanal footwear, ahead are seven Filipino fashion brands to add to your must-have list. Some are new, upcoming designers, and others have spent years building their brands to the cult-following they are today. But most importantly, all put Filipino culture at the center of…

Kristen Stewart Recounts What It Was Like Filming Princess Diana’s Wedding Dress Scene

October 28, 2021 at 05:23PM The Princess is here! In the trailer for the highly anticipated Princess Diana biopic, Spencer, starring Kristen Stewart, we got a glimpse of the actress portraying the late royal on her wedding day around the 1:53 mark. While the movie, which arrives in theatres 5 Nov., focuses on one pivotal weekend in Princess Diana’s life - the Christmas holiday where she decided to leave Prince Charles - the clips of her in the wedding dress are likely from a flashback. Of course, it is not the original dress that Princess Di wore on 29 July, 1981, designed by Elizabeth and David Emanuel, but it is a spot-on replication created by costume designer Jacqueline Durran for the Pablo LarraĂ­n film. Kristen’s iconic dress in the trailer features pouf sleeves with lace ruffles, a scalloped neckline with a lace trim,…

Shiloh Jolie-Pitt Might Have Borrowed a Gown From Angelina Jolie, but She Made It Her Own

October 28, 2021 at 05:20PM Imagine having access to Angelina Jolie’s wardrobe … and getting to wear her pieces on a red carpet. Well, for the star’s lucky kids, that is a reality. Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, her 15-year-old daughter with Brad Pitt, donned a beautiful printed Dior dress at The Eternals UK premiere in London on Oct. 27 - the exact gown we saw Angelina sport two years ago for a Maleficent global press conference. Shiloh, whose version of the dress hit right above the knees, styled the look with classic ballet flats and simple hoop earrings. Angelina’s children have tagged along as she promotes her new film, making their own fashion statements along the way. Shiloh’s leopard SAWA sneakers caught our attention at the Rome Film Festival on Sunday, while just a week prior, the star’s eldest daughter, Zahara Jolie-Pitt, stunned in her…

Rihanna’s Feminine Pink Outfit Has All the Frills – Including A$AP Rocky’s Necklace

October 28, 2021 at 04:38PM Rihanna and boyfriend A$AP Rocky have brought us plenty of cute style moments so far this year. But while their Met Gala debut was a little more dramatic, we can also appreciate the subtler moments they share. Say, for example, a confident and cool Rihanna outing all alone, with A$AP nowhere immediately in sight, but carried close to the heart in the form of his cross necklace, which Rihanna wore proudly. She layered it on top of another gold pendant and a delicate lace Miu Miu blouse. You’d probably be quick to notice the pink sequins on her Dries Van Noten skirt, furry fabric of her handbag, or throwback portraits on her Raf Simons Teenage Dreams trench before you spotted any sign of her SO’s influence on her wardrobe. However, it’s a sweet nod to A$AP, who wore…

Keke Palmer Gave Us Looks and a Flawless Performance at the World Series

October 28, 2021 at 04:12PM In a room full of well-dressed people, Keke Palmer always stands out. From her stunning gold beaded Met Gala gown to the jaw-dropping gold sequin feathered skirt ensemble she wore on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the actress knows how to bring the sartorial drama. We’re always ready for a fashion spectacle whenever she’s involved, and at the World Series, Keke and her stylist Seth Chernoff gave us just that. The singer performed the National Anthem in a head-turning gold suit designed by Istanbul-based fashion house Raisa Vanessa, paired with tall Jimmy Choo boots. All eyes were on her as she delivered a beautiful rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner” in style. And with that, the first game of the World Series between the Atlanta Braves and the Houston Astros was off to a great start! Related: Keke Palmer Scoring Her…

22 Very Old Trends I’m Still Wearing Today

October 28, 2021 at 08:00AM I’m a huge fan of ‘70s fashion—the era created a host of trends that still stand up today, whether you realise they’re from that time or not. Think of our current obsession with bright over-the-knee boots, folk-inspired printed dresses, velvet and corduroy, boho blouses, midi skirts and so on. While the '70s sweep over the runways every couple of seasons, there’s always a hint of it on the streets if you look closely.Think of the iconic designer names that were indelibly marked into history during this decade, like Yves Saint Laurent, Karl Lagerfeld and Diane von Furstenberg. Also, during this period, mass-market, trend-driven fashion was more readily available. Barbara Hulanicki’s Biba kick-started the idea in London a decade earlier, alongside boutiques such as Bus Stop, and cool, connected girls were able to switch up their looks more readily, which likely led…
