THE SURREAL WORLD: THIS SEASON’S COUTURE IS JUST LIKE MAGIC (V Magazine)

Winter is approaching, and this season, we're going as bold as ever. Right now, it's all about who gets the most eyes on their designs, and how exotic you can style a look. Our favorite pieces are abstract, and avant-garde. They catch your eye, but they're still extremely wearable. Some of the looks include the black Balenciaga Couture coat with feather-like appendages, the blue Gaultier Paris by Sacai gown split down the middle for legroom to show off matching patterned tights, the pink and lavender smooth Armani Privé pants and soft top combination, and the black Schiaparelli Haute Couture dress adorned with gold ornamentation that looks like something Maleficent herself would wear. Styled by V Magazine and VMAN Fashion Director Gro Curtis, these looks are nothing short of impressive. But the other half...

Rihanna Makes a Scarlet Statement With an Up-and-Coming Designer (W Magazine)

Rihanna may have been in Long Beach, California to support her boyfriend, A$AP Rocky, but she herself stole the show in an all-red look. The singer went monochromatic on Sunday night to attend ComplexCon, where A$AP was performing, matching completely in the color, down to her lace-up heels. The singer wore a leather red mini skirt, an overcoat in a deeper hue, and those heels, but the main draw of her look was definitely the checkered halter-top that folded beautifully on her chest. The piece is from Maximilian Davis’ eponymous brand Maximilian. Davis is a London-based artist who gains a lot of inspiration from his trips to Trinidad as a teenager. The top Rihanna is wearing debuted in London in September as part...

THE BEST & BUZZIEST MOMENTS FROM THE SPRING 2022 SHOWS (NYLON)

Fashion month is officially back. After a year of mostly digital and online shows, fashion week in New York, London, Milan, and Paris returned with in-person events, lively street style, and celebrity-studded front rows. With this type of high anticipation, designers pulled out all the stops, whether it was throwing a full-on festival like Balmain to celebrate Olivier Rousteing’s 10th anniversary with the brand, or rethinking the fashion show format as a whole, such as Telfar holding a press conference to launch its community-focused TV program or Balenciaga hosting a red carpet for its short film with The Simpsons. Entertainment antics aside, the fashion crowd showed up for the clothes, after all. For Spring 2022, expect a lot more Y2K styles, thanks to...

ALEXANDER MCQUEEN CELEBRATES HOLIDAY GIFTING COLLECTION WITH A NEW SHORT FILM (V Magazine)

In a dark, creepy forest, something special sits buried in the undergrowth of the mossy floor—an Alexander McQueen bag, protected by the natural critters of the dark setting. The incongruous visual comes from Alexander McQueen’s gifting 2021 collection, with a campaign film and sequence of stills by animation director Isabel Garrett, who draws us into the world of McQueen through stop motion and puppetry. Garrett is also a resident artist at The Sarabande Foundation, established by Lee Alexander McQueen to support creativity. The edgy yet luxurious codes of the house are woven into a short film advertising the holiday gifting collection, with thick moss, spindly birds, creepy beetles, spiders and snakes weaving in and around McQueen’s Curve Mini, Small Skull bag and Jewelled Flat...

All The Best Moments From Gucci’s Love Parade Runway Show in Los Angeles (W Magazine)

On Tuesday evening in Los Angeles, Alessandro Michele turned Hollywood Boulevard into the runway of his dreams.

Ariana Grande’s Top is Held Together By a Thread (W Magazine)

Ariana Grande is the queen of tiny fashion. Save for an occasional oversized sweatshirt, the singer loves a minimal proportion. She pulls off every mini skirt and crop top like no other. Honestly, maybe she hasn’t seen Miu Miu’s SS22 collection yet because she would have snagged every look straight off the runway for her Voice appearances. Despite Grande’s love for skin, though, her latest look may have broken a record for the least fabric possible. It almost defies the laws of physics. On Thursday, the singer (and Voice coach and soon-to-be beauty mogul) shared a photo on Instagram laying casually on the ground, her long, brown hair let out of its pony and draped on her chest. Grande is wearing some light makeup courtesy of her...

Kim Kardashian Brought Thierry Mugler Out of Retirement to Design Her Halloween Costume (W Magazine)

Thierry Mugler, also known as Manfred, doesn’t come out of his semi-retirement for just anything. Of course, he emerged in 2019 to design Kim Kardashian’s Met Gala dress and now, she’s put him back to work yet again, this time for a Halloween costume. Yes, Kardashian got Mugler, who officially retired from the runway almost two decades ago, to dust off his designing chops so she could wear couture to go trick-or-treating. Kardashian showed off her full look on Monday and, to be fair, this is no ordinary, Party City purchase. The costume, which Kardashian and Mugler are calling a “Cowbot” features a bra with a star motif, some booty shorts that include Mugler’s signature shell-like layering, some chaps, and boots...

Bella Hadid, Lola Leon, and Amber Valletta Defy Gravity in Mugler (W Magazine)

Everyone has a front-row seat to Mugler’s Fall/Winter 2021 runway show. For the second season in a row, the house’s creative director, Casey Cadwallader, opted to ditch the traditional catwalk-based show for a video presentation, one that puts viewers in the middle of the spectacle, and the result is uniquely Mugler. Bella Hadid, Lourdes “Lola” Leon, Amber Valletta, and more models pound down the runway to intense beats in tight-fitting bodysuits, illusion tops, and chain-draped dresses. At times, the models are seen with a white morphsuit posse behind them, mimicking the models movements or showing off their own looks. Other times, those shadow figures catch the models as they suddenly fall, only to be mysteriously lifted back up again. “There was just...
