What Andy Warhol understood better than anyone is that fame that lasts 15 minutes or longer is both a top-down and a bottom-up construct. The foundation for his notoriety wasn’t his racy films, the shock came from his elevation of everyday, commonplace, even banal, consumer goods in the form of Brillo boxes and paintings of Campbell Soup cans. Without being readymades, these remained graphically close to the originals, and were provocative because they chipped at the barriers between high and low, fine and commercial art, in a world in which mingling of classes and nationalities was not so common. brillo  Photo: Mike Lawn / Getty Images Although luxury fashion was slow to embrace a similar dissolution of boundaries—we’ve come a long way from...

Like The Jetsons or Oscar Niemeyer’s mid-century skyscrapers before it, Y2K style now represents a retro vision of the future. Two decades on from the year 2000, today’s designers have the space to reexamine the turn of the century style’s hallmarks: colorful, shiny plastic accessories; feathery and fuzzy textures that won’t be found in nature; icy cold space-age tones like silver, white, pink, and blue. What was Y2K? If you’d forgotten, it was the alarm and awe inspired by technology (and society) possibly crumbling because of a computer formatting issue. The accompanying Y2K aesthetic attempted to depict a new, unknown future, and as such the opportunity to reimagine the fashion rules was impossible to pass up, with styles ranging from letting it...

Now that fall is here, and winter is quickly approaching, mini skirts, or if you’re a big Diesel fan, belt skirts, just won’t do the trick if you're looking to stay warm in the dropping temperatures. Luckily maxi and midi denim skirts are perfect for the fall-winter season, and this year, designers have been having a lot of fun with the silhouettes, construction, and aesthetics they are bringing to their long jean skirts. Additionally, if you are on Pinterest or TikTok, you definitely have seen how fashion creators are styling these hot commodities. Putting them over pants, layering numerous belts around the waist, and adding ‘bloke-core’ staples like Adidas Sambas and soccer jerseys have all been the rage. Light wash, dark wash,...

Almost everyone is familiar with the Canadian Tuxedo (we can thank pop culture of the early aughts for that), but lately, the denim-on-denim style has taken a chic turn courtesy of a very fashionable group of street stylers. This double-take of denim comes as no surprise given the recent rise of casual yet cool dressing where solid, everyday wardrobe essentials shine. Even better, the outfit combination can be just as easily dressed up with a heeled sandal as it can be dressed down with a pair of menswear-inspired loafers. Never not a fashion risk-taker, Emily Ratajkowski was spotted outside the Loewe SS23 runway show in her version of a Canadian Tuxedo, making the denim-on-denim style sexy like only she can. The combination of her statement-making baggy...
