We Can’t Get Over These Fierce Charlotte Knowles Pants, Spotted on Ciara and Lori Harvey

September 22, 2021 at 04:37PM Every now and then, two or more celebrities are spotted wearing the same item of clothing, which tells us it should immediately be on our radar. The latest It-design to hit celebrity street style? A slinky pair of Charlotte Knowles cutout pants from the fall 2021 runway. Ciara and Lori Harvey, both trendsetters in their own right (just look at Ciara’s Met Gala dress or Lori Harvey’s date-night looks), are known to stir conversations about their personal style. The singer and model looked fierce in the London-based label’s daring creation, while living their best lives (Ciara on a baecation in Italy, and Lori out and about in Los Angeles). The duo might have been spotted in the same designer pants, but they definitely made them their own. We love the way they dialed up the sexiness with equally…

Lady Gaga Was the First to Score Valentino’s Vaccinated Hoodie – but She Won’t Be the Last

September 22, 2021 at 03:56PM Fans of Lady Gaga and Valentino were probably quick to notice the (V) Vaccinated hoodie she wore in late August to promote her beauty campaign for the label. The video posted to her Instagram feed was a quick peek at one of the five sweatshirts created by street wear brand and pop culture sensation Cloney, with a riff on Valentino’s “V” logo. Originally, only five were created, all of which were bought by creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli himself to distribute among friends. But Piccioli has chosen to carry out the trend and recreate his own version for valentino.com, with all net profits donated to UNICEF in support of the organization’s global COVAX program. “Getting vaccinated has become the most effective way to fight this global pandemic, as well as a symbol of respect for others and social responsibility.…

Inside Josie Ho’s Hat-Filled Wardrobe

September 22, 2021 at 02:30PM Sometimes I’m afraid to show my huge personality,” says Josie Ho. “I feel like I might speak the wrong word during conversations, but I’m slowly growing out of it.” It’s an unanticipated statement coming from someone who exists in the extroverted orbit of entertainment. But Ho — a singer, film company co-owner and actor whose appearance in this summer’s period drama Edge of the World cemented her status as one to watch in the cinematic sphere — seems to relish in surprising others. Photography by KIUPerhaps that’s why she has such an enormous assortment of hats; they allow her to bounce from one personal character to the next with ease. And glamour and intrigue have been part of her life all along. As the daughter of a casino magnate, Ho recalls observing how Hong Kong’s “show business divas…

5 Pieces I’m Now Obsessing Over After Cos’s London Fashion Week Show

September 22, 2021 at 12:08PM ‘Twas the last day of London Fashion Week and COS was the last show on my schedule. With a FROW packed-full of editors, buyers and Instagram’s finest minimalists (oh hello Brittany Bathgate and Alexis Foreman), anticipation was high as the lights were dimmed and the catwalk illuminated. All I can say about the styling was: wow. Clean-lined, classic and achingly chic, this show was dangerous for my bank balances. You honestly couldn’t distinguish it from the designer runway looks we had seen the day before. While I wanted everything that hit the catwalk, there were a few highlights that truly stuck in my mind, including a very Prada-like cobalt blue tailored coat, a pair of slouchy tailored trousers that looked incredible layered under shift dresses, and the most beautiful silken shirt dress that weightlessly skimmed the runway. I have basically taken a mental picture of all the looks and…

Kate Middleton Just Wore the Trend I’d Happily Ditch My Skinny Jeans For

September 22, 2021 at 08:00AM The Duchess of Cambridge stepped out in rainy Wolverhampton today for a series of engagements and proved, yet again, that denim is not the only way to pull together an easy, chic outfit. Wearing a look that was very reminiscent of a navy ensemble she chose on a royal tour last year (more on those looks below) she assembled a fitted coat over a polka-dot, contrast-collar blouse and with a trouser style that is fast becoming her signature: tailored flares.On Kate Middleton: Tory Burch Silk Satin Polka Dot Blouse; Jigsaw trousers. In a couple of styling moves that are now recognisably very HRH, Kate chose to go tonal (a move that makes any outfit simpler), to add in some classic pearl earrings and to ensure that her wide-leg trousers were (probably) tailored just so, in order to sit neatly above her…
