MARSHALL COLUMBIA’S THIRD COLLECTION IS QUIRKY AND ECLECTIC (V Magazine)

A childhood obsession with arts, crafts, and bright colors has carried Brooklyn designer Marshall Columbia into his namesake label, combining nostalgia with expression in an eccentric line. His third collection boasts the same bold designs and ready-to-wear garments that define his brand, this time debuting new colorways, footwear, menswear, and the Moonflower shoulder bag. The campaign features bright neon colors that contrast against a solid black background, with a set of characters that exude unconventionality. Columbia's costume design background can be seen through his exaggerated approach to fashion, with cutouts, dynamic silhouettes, and unpredictable color pairings sprawled throughout the collection. The label is defined by a signature smiley flower logo—a thick, squiggly shape that mimics the same peculiar vibe seen throughout all...

The Best Fashion Instagrams of the Week: Kendall Jenner, Naomi Osaka, Kim Kardashian, and More (VOGUE)

Over the past week, Kim Kardashian took us on a trip down memory lane. The social media star wore a look that was the spitting image of Carmen Electra’s Stephen Sprouse optical illusion dress from the 1998 MTV Movie Awards. The white T-shaped dress appeared to float on her body, but in reality, it was fastened at the back by an invisible plastic strap. Kardashian posed in an Instagram slide wearing the piece with the caption: “Love me for me, ok?” (Fun fact: Electra once told Vogue that the dress had gotten her on all the worst dressed lists at the time.) Speaking of Kardashian, her sister Kendall Jenner has been having a very chic time on Instagram. The model showed off a noughties-inspired look...

Gigi Hadid on Creative Expression, Her New Clothing Line, and Starring in H&M’s Newest Campaign (VOGUE)

Gigi Hadid knows a thing or two about hotels. Having traversed the globe for work and pleasure, the supermodel is used to living out of a suitcase during fashion month or jetting off for some well-deserved relaxation post-season. Still, her wildest trip to date took her to a destination only accessible in fantasies. As H&M’s newest campaign star, Hadid serves as concierge at Hotel Hennes, a fictional resort dedicated to madcap adventures. Host to a who’s who of talent, she guides Jill Korteleve, Precious Lee, Devyn Garcia, and more through a surreal setting filled with campy humor and affordable fashion. The film, directed by Bardia Zeinali, focuses on the joy of travel, a subject Hadid found timely after the coronavirus pandemic’s years of...

Another Day, Another Great Body-Con Dress From Kendall Jenner (VOGUE)

New-age supers Hailey Bieber, Mona Tougaard, and Bella Hadid have all made baggy denim key to their off-duty wardrobes, but fellow model Kendall Jenner is all about a talking-point dress. She’s worn three body-hugging dresses in swift succession in recent days, her most recent being a butterfly-print midi dress, worn for a Kardashian-Jenner family dinner to celebrate the Kendall X Kylie Cosmetics line launch. Equal parts flattering and stylish, the dress echoed the butterfly-print separates from Jean Paul Gaultier’s iconic spring/summer 1994 collection that she wore during London Fashion Week in 2020. The accompanying accessories, a bright-green bag and Amina Muaddi’s perspex Lupita heels—a pair she’s worn repeatedly—gave her look a contemporary edge. The dress perfectly complemented her new red hair too, with its vibrant tones. Jenner tried a more...

5 Ways to Pull Off Spring’s Psychedelic Prints (VOGUE)

You don’t have to be a devout Dead Head to recognize the fact that trippy tie-dye and psychedelic swirls are back in the fashion vernacular. Blame it on the larger cultural conversations around the science of psychedelics or perhaps a universal desire to embrace the idea of “dopamine dressing.” Either way, it’s clear: Designers are embracing counter-culture for spring. On the runway at Rodarte, there was the cheeky appearance of a lighthearted mushroom print. At Brandon Maxwell, there was a range of swirling, graphic gowns and dresses—a playful twist on his usually preppy staples. And then, of course, there are all the goodies from the house of Pucci, which is helmed by a new creative director Camille Miceli, who is breathed new life into the...

How Next-Level Nails Became this Season’s Must-Have Accessory (VOGUE)

od, my thumb looks boring,” I thought as I scrolled Instagram late one recent winter evening, disappearing down a nail-art rabbit hole. For years I’d been loyal to the same polish, a hue so neutral it blends into my skin like foundation, and yet, driven back inside (and back insane) by omicron, I suddenly found myself lusting over photos of costume designer Miyako Bellizzi’s ombré talons. They were ultra-long and coffin-shaped—not to be confused with the “almond” tips, or “tapered squares” I discovered as I scanned captions elsewhere. I may as well have been on Duolingo; I was learning a whole new language. Returning to Bellizzi’s feed, I wondered: Can she order an Uber with those things on? How does she floss? And,...

Megan Fox Has Entered Her Fashion Girl Phase (VOGUE)

In her most recent Instagram post, Megan Fox proved her fashion chops–and sense of humor. She posted a highly manicured image of herself strutting down an empty driveway, most likely somewhere in balmy Los Angeles, wearing a melange of strappy and skin-revealing clothing. The Knwls ensemble, styled by Maeve Reilly, consisted of a bold printed corset top that had sleeves seemingly connected around the neck like a halter top, along with matching pants that showed off her navel. In her caption, Fox wrote, “Everybody’s grandma had that one sofa…swipe.” The last slide showed a print sofa reminiscent of, yes, her look. Megan’s got jokes! There’s no doubt that the actor loves to show skin, whether she is wearing a print suit...
