Euphoria and its Influential Fashion is Back

December 21, 2021 at 11:26PM Who doesn’t want to dress like the girls in Euphoria? The characters’ over-the-top outfits — though completely unrealistic for high school attire — exemplify the uniquely Cool Teen aesthetic of Gen Z. Since the HBO series’ premiere in 2019, its leads have become undeniable style symbols. And after delays due to COVID-19, the girls are finally returning to our screens on January 9. Euphoria released its official trailer for season two on December 20, and the students of East Highland High are just as fashion-forward as ever. The Sam Levinson drama follows five main characters — Rue Bennett (Zendaya), Jules Vaughn (Hunter Schafer), Maddy Perez (Alexa Demie), Cassie Howard (Sydney Sweeney) and Kat Hernandez (Barbie Ferreira) — as they stumble through teenagehood, enduring heartbreak, addiction issues and questions of identity. The new trailer promises the return of the…

We Need to Talk About the Chris Noth Allegations

December 21, 2021 at 10:04PM Content warning: This article includes mentions of sexual violence. And Just Like That… has firmly placed Chris Noth in our collective consciousness yet again. In reprising his role as Sex and the City’s Mr. Big, Noth became a major focal point for viewers of the HBO Max reboot, but his resurgence in the post #MeToo era has stirred up allegations of sexual assault. Following the series premiere on December 9, three women have come forward with sexual assault accusations against Chris Noth. On December 16, The Hollywood Reporter published the stories of two women who respectively approached the publication earlier this year. A day later, the Daily Beast published allegations from a third woman. In light of these accusations, fashion watchdog Diet Prada shared an old newspaper clipping from The National Enquirer on Instagram in which model Beverly…

Matrix star Jessica Henwick On the Style Trend She’d Resurrect

December 21, 2021 at 04:00PM There’s no shortage of gratuitous reboots and revivals, but our imminent return to The Matrix actually makes sense. Even after the first film dropped in 1999, the dystopian cyberpunk aesthetic that The Matrix encapsulated is still a major style touchpoint decades later. Exhibit A? The outfit that the trilogy’s heroine Trinity (Carrie Anne Moss) wears throughout the series — a sharp bob paired with futuristic black shades and a leather trench coat — has proven to be eternally chic. In fact, when I rewatched the original three films before my early screening of the series’ fourth installment last week, one of my biggest takeaways was that I would wear literally everything on screen. Wouldn’t you? I had the same thought after watching The Matrix Resurrections, but the new stylish scene-stealer is Game of Thrones alum Jessica Henwick, who…

December 21, 2021 at 02:30PM Welcome to Capricorn season — arguably the GOAT season and a time where things just have to make sense. During this placement we can explore themes around responsibility, commitment and initiative in our lives; all such grounding keystones that intertwine with this earth sign almost instinctively. So, with the sun’s return to Capricorn, let’s take a look at what’s in store for us all… and how to up our self care rituals accordingly. Capricorn season occurs with the Winter Solstice each year in the Northern Hemisphere. It is the first winter season, and the long beginning of the return of greater light and warmth in our days. This can sound either discouraging and dreadful, or represent hope. Light a candle (we’re currently buzzing over the 4 Letter Series locally-poured candles) and get grounded on your mat to reflect…

This Toronto-based Advocate Wore the 52-foot Amsterdam Rainbow Dress

December 20, 2021 at 05:08PM This is not your average 52-foot-long gown. But really, can any 52-foot-long gown ever be classified as average? The Amsterdam Rainbow Dress is undoubtedly the coolest and most poignant example of flag-based apparel that the world has ever seen. Created in The Netherlands by Mattijs van Bergen, Arnout van Krimpen, Jochem Kaan and Oeri van WoezikIn, the gown was initially designed for EuroPride 2016 but has since blossomed into so much more than a parade costume. While wearable patriotism is once again trending in the wake of February’s Winter Olympics, don’t confuse this symbol of activism for a pair of maple leaf mittens. The stunningly extravagant ensemble is a wearable collage of the flags of 71 countries (77 in 2016) where homosexuality is punishable by law, including eight where homosexual acts can result in the death penalty. Once…

This Canadian Designer On the Post-Gender Revolution

December 17, 2021 at 02:30PM “We really wanted to create a uniform,” says Spencer Badu, founder and creative director of his eponymous brand. “The whole idea was to create pieces that were minimal yet directional, real and not pretentious, that anyone could incorporate into their everyday lives.” Badu has always been inspired by the people around him, hence the effortlessly easy garments that abound in his collections. Described by the Canadian designer as “contemporary streetwear,” his assortment of understated tracksuits, neon cargo vests and wearable bucket hats are distinct for their attention to detail and innovative design sensibilities. A bit of a Canadian nomad, Badu was born in Brampton, went to university in Calgary and now resides in Toronto, though he credits his time out west for the birth of his brand in 2015. “Once I finished fashion school, that’s when I started…
