NYLON FIT PICKS: KYLIE JENNER’S DENIM MINI SKIRT, RIHANNA & A$AP ROCKY’S BAGGY JEANS, & MORE CELEBRITY LOOKS (NYLON)

gygggg
Over the weekend, it seems that Kylie Jenner has become an even bigger fan of the micro-mini skirt trend, as she was seen out in London donning perhaps the tiniest skirt we’ve seen on the everything-mogul in a while. The 24-year-old was spotted heading to The Twenty Two in Mayfair on Saturday, Aug. 6, opting for a vintage leather motorcycle jacket from Mugler’s Spring 1990 collection sourced from The Reallist. She then wore her racer-inspired zip-up with an upcycled denim mini skirt from Devised Antithetical, which was crafted from two pairs of jeans and adorned with a low-rise V-cut at the waist. This comes as a surprise for the billionaire as the Double Denim mini skirt runs only at $65 — a budget-friendly option for those...

Did Beyoncé Just Tease All Her Renaissance Visual Album Looks? (W Magazine)

HUH
Beyoncé still hasn’t dropped a music video for “Break My Soul,” but there’s a chance it might be coming soon. Soon after her latest album Renaissance came out in July, Bey’s team explained she wanted fans to soak in the record sonically before she released any visuals. On Friday, an official teaser for the “I’m That Girl” video hit the Internet. Although we’ve already seen some of the looks and locations in the artwork that accompanied the album packaging, look closely at the 38-second mark, and there’s a split-second montage of loads of new looks. It’s all very Everything Everywhere All at Once, but it also suggests that an entire visual album is on the way. We love “I’m That Girl,” and all,...

Neo Nordic: The Top Spring 2023 Trends at Copenhagen Fashion Week (VOGUE)

yiy
Scandi Style, the subject of global fascination, is in a period of evolution. Minimalism and a colorful bohemianism continue to be mainstays of the regional style, but there’s a vibe shift taking place. The shiny, happy energy is still there but so is a grittier, rawer one that allows for more nuanced readings of the culture. This season prints were less prevalent than saturated color in crayon brights, and openwork materials posed the question: to bra or not to bra? Both options were seen on the runway and on the street. Helmstedt’s charming toadstool queen and Jade Cropper’s sexy mermaid were reminders that Denmark is a land of fairytales. The prevalence of white (in fifty or more shades) could be read as...

On Her 40th Birthday, Revisit Devon Aoki’s Greatest Runway Moments (VOGUE)

FF
What makes a good model a great model? For one, it’s their ability to radiate a constant, ineffable sense of cool, no matter where they are or what they’re wearing. Where that’s concerned, few possess the same sense of playfulness, personality, and versatility as Devon Aoki, the cult model who stormed the runways of Chanel, Versace, and Comme des Garçons throughout the 1990s and early-’00s, and quickly became a favorite of photographers like Steven Meisel, Juergen Teller, and Nick Knight. (You might recognize her from the silver screen, too; Aoki featured in Sin City and 2 Fast 2 Furious, among other films.) While Aoki’s chameleonic ability to bend to the vision of whichever designer or photographer she’s working with—appearing as a prim and proper princess for Karl Lagerfeld, a coquettish sex kitten for Ellen von Unwerth, a...

Kylie Jenner Is The Alternative Denim Queen (VOGUE UK)

hij
Kylie Jenner is a committed supporter of emerging brands. The beauty mogul loves the caché that comes with wearing a one-of-a-kind piece by a Central Saint Martins graduate or an upcycled look from a conceptual label that would never have the budget for influencer marketing. Yes, these directional outfits are frequently paired with rare Hermès bags and It-girl Amina Muaddis, but every little helps in the celebrity sphere that peddles big-name companies. Jenner’s offbeat fashion approach extends to denim. On a recent trip to London, Kylie supplemented her rare vintage collection with directional jeans from Sevali, Ottolinger and Devised Antithetical, as well as the obligatory Balenciaga. Each of these brands comes with a story that’s just as interesting as her ’90s Thierry Mugler motocross jacket. Take Sevali. Chilean designer Sebastian...

ZENDAYA AND LEWIS HAMILTON AT THE FOREFRONT OF VALENTINO’S LATEST FALL 2022 ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN, PINK PP (V Magazine)

ui
Captured in the still frame of a moment, frozen in a monochrome sign that pervades everything is acclaimed actress Zendaya and British race car driver Sir Lewis Hamilton shot for Valentino’s latest Fall 2022 advertising campaign, Pink PP. Symbolic of the color of love, community, energy and freedom, Valentino’s Creative Director Pierpaolo Piccioli immerses the collection relentlessly in a single shade of Pink. A different emotional and mention space is given to this single hue of Pink, a collateral dimension to the real that can be accessed. It is a territory, equal and opposite to the transcendence of the dream. Promoting that one cannot own a color, but can own a feeling. Pink PP is a manifestation of the unconscious and a...

Dua Lipa Combines Two of Summer’s Biggest Trends in One Look (W Magazine)

1
When it comes to summer dressing, if ever in doubt, just go with an all-white ensemble. It’s chic, easy to put together, and, most importantly, will keep you cool in these soaring temps. That’s likely why Dua Lipa opted for her latest look, a no fuss, almost completely monochrome ensemble with just a touch of unexpected leather. The singer is currently in her parent’s home country of Kosovo, where she is holding the Sunnyhill Festival, a music festival organized by Lipa and her father, Dukagjin Lipa. Ahead of the event, Lipa shared some images on Instagram, celebrating her return “home” and her upcoming performance. In the images, Lipa is wearing an all-white look, courtesy of one of the singer’s favorite brands, Bottega Veneta....

Isa Boulder’s Sexy and Eccentric Knits Are Taking Over (VOGUE)

The look is sexy yet crafty; experimental and alluring in equal measure. Normani’s not the only one who’s taken a shine to Isa Boulder, though. The swim and knitwear brand has won over the pop stars Dua Lipa and Lorde (per my Instagram feed) and most of Gen Z (per my TikTok feed). What makes it special is the way it seamlessly exists in an intersection between lingerie and ready-to-wear. Designer Cecilia...

THE “IT” BAGS OF 2022 SO FAR, FROM DIESEL TO BALENCIAGA (NYLON)

hio
While we can’t believe that we’re more than halfway through 2022, it’s been shaping up to be an exciting year for fashion. Runway shows are back and bigger than ever; collaborations are still going strong with surprise partnerships (Yeezy Gap and Balenciaga, Gucci and Adidas, to name a few); and somehow, Barbie’s signature pink wardrobe has become a massive, widespread style inspiration. In the shopping space, we’re seeing unexpected brands rise to the top, plenty of nostalgic items making a comeback (to no one’s surprise), and, of course, a lot of handbags making it onto everyone’s wishlist. The category still remains one of the most lucrative assets for any fashion brand, so if a certain style goes viral, consider it a very good thing. Ahead, see...
