Gigi Hadid Lives Out the Most “Mom” Runway Moment Ever, and It Involves a Baby Bottle

September 09, 2021 at 10:14PM Gigi Hadid recently reveled in the most stylish mom jeans moment of the summer, but she might have just one-upped herself on the Moschino runway. The supermodel, who’s close friends with Creative Director Jeremy Scott and has made many appearances for the brand before, closed the show in a single-sleeved, animal embroidered patchwork dress that came in baby blanket fabric. The entire “Ladies Who Lunch” collection was inspired by children’s toys, in fact, featuring everything from colorful bangles reminiscent of take-along teething rings and teddy bear earrings to handbags that technically double as beach pails and letter blocks. Gigi, who’s a new mom to daughter Khai, was given the honor of toting along a baby bottle ahead of the finale, which she posed with, twirled with, and pretended to take a sip of - towering platform sandals be…

Here’s Why Lilac — Yes, Lilac — Should Be Your Go-To Colour This Fall

September 09, 2021 at 09:44PM This fall, the fashion world is turning their attention away from rich jewel tones like burgundy and emerald green in favour of more delicate hues like lilac — and we’re not mad about it. Whether you’re going for a sophisticated look with clean lines or reaching for a relaxed silhouette, the lilac trend 2021 is sure to be everything this fall and winter. Salvatore Ferragamo, Jil Sander, and Marine Serre are just some of the many designers who sent the unexpected fall colour down the runway, adding a pastel freshness to classic autumnal pieces like cozy knits and tailored coats.

Yara Shahidi Was a Whole Work of Art in a Dior Sweater Vest at New York Fashion Week

September 09, 2021 at 09:25PM If you made your way through the Brooklyn Museum during New York Fashion Week on Sept. 8, you might have come across lavish Dior designs, paintings that date back centuries, and even Yara Shahidi looking like a work of art. Like a cross between 1921 and 2021, Yara attended The Exhibition Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams on Wednesday while wearing a Dior Haute Couture Fall-Winter 2022 black mohair houndstooth sweater, a flannel skirt with a high waistline, and Dior heeled sandals. “Don’t touch the art,” she captioned a post on Instagram, and we don’t need to be told twice. The exhibit, curated by Florence MĂĽller and Matthew Yokobosky features never-before-seen silhouettes marking 70 years of Christian Dior’s fashion impact, but we couldn’t take our eyes off of Yara’s shimmering sweater vest. Reminiscent of a starry night, the sweater…

I Tried Clothing Subscription Service Armoire, and I Actually Had Fun With Fashion Again

September 09, 2021 at 07:10PM I used to think I possessed a little something called “style,” but these days my daily fits consist of sweats, bike shorts, old oversized T-shirts, and my trusted Harry Styles sweatshirt. Though dressing for comfort is something I’ve grown fond of during the pandemic, I am deeply in a style rut. So when I got the chance to try out Armoire ($69 and up), a clothing subscription company, I was excited to go back to the old days, when I used to actually get dressed. To begin, I took a short style quiz that was aimed to help them better suggest pieces I might like. It only took five minutes, and it asked about the types of pieces I’m drawn to (tailored trousers), what I wear a lot (Breton stripes), what I would never wear (paisley), as well…

Thanks to Irina Shayk’s Cargos, I’m THIS Close to Clicking “Purchase” on a Pair of Low-Rise Pants

September 09, 2021 at 06:55PM I’ve hemmed and hawed over the return of some of the early-aughts trends that have made their way back in vogue. I’ve passed on bucket hats and tiny shades, but welcomed others - wide-cut denim and sweater sets; though I’ve been firm on my stance when it comes to low-rise pants - and that’s a hard no from me. Cut to Irina Shayk stepping out for the Bulgari party in NYC in a LaQuan Smith bustier and pants from The Attico and I’m over here eating my words - and browsing the web for the same hip-slung cargos. While something about low-rise jeans can seem stuck in the past, these cargos - and this whole outfit - feel inspired by nostalgia, but altogether new and exciting. The look feels reminiscent of some throwback style moments, but also kind…
