Even before 2020, the rhythm of the fashion calendar had been fracturing as some designers broke free from showing within the confines of spring/summer and fall/winter, instead opting to release collections whenever they pleased. Now, all bets are still off—and the pre-fall/cruise seasons are no different. Brands including Fendi, The Row, and even Gucci—which showed its collection with a spectacle of a runway presentation that took place on Hollywood Boulevard and featured over 500 guests—have been putting out their takes on pre-fall since September of this year. We’re following the ongoing releases right here, tracking the latest drops from Proenza Schouler, Chloé, Erdem, (which just released its first menswear line), and more. .

After spending hours mindlessly scrolling through TikTok’s For You Page, it’s become clear that the app is a serious trend forecaster. TikTok’s predominantly Gen Z users clearly have their finger on the pulse of the latest and greatest products. Even better, they often post candid reviews about what makes a product so damn good (or not so good). So, in honor of the shopping community on the app, we’ve rounded up the best items that went viral on the app this year (and where to shop them). Consider this list below a foolproof shopping guide for the holidays, because not only do all of these items come with stellar reviews, but they have all gotten the TikTok seal of approval—an audience...

Here’s an end-of-year riddle or pop-quiz question for you: When is Balenciaga not Balenciaga? When it’s Balenciaga x Gucci, aka “The Hacker Project.” And when is Versace not Versace? When it’s Versace x Fendi, aka “The Swap.” There’s also Fendi x Skims, recently revealed between the Italian fashion house and Kim Kardashian’s shapewear brand; and if that’s not enough, there’s been Gucci x The North Face, Dior x Sacai, and Sacai x Jean Paul Gaultier, and more. If there’s one thing you can say about 2021, it’s that the peak fashion collaboration has reigned supreme. Once, we used to wait with bated breath for H&M to team up with the likes of Viktor & Rolf, Comme des Garçons, Lanvin, Erdem, and Versace for the...

After the many uncertainties of 2020 and 2021, many are looking for signs from any source. The Pantone Color of the Year 2022 is a new shade, Very Peri, one that, according to Leatrice Eiseman, the executive director of the Pantone Color Institute, and Laurie Pressman, the vice president of the Pantone Color Institute, embraces the uncertainty and cautious optimism of our moment. “It is a color that really places the future ahead in a new light,” said Pressman on a Zoom call earlier this week....

How did the 21-year-old designer Marco Garro go from a small town in Costa Rica, commuting by bus six hours a day to attend fashion school, to dressing the likes of Jorja Smith, Tinashe, and Anastasia Karanikolaou? After launching his namesake label earlier this year with a grit, tenacity, and vibrancy that rivals the patterns used in his colorful clothing, Garro’s work has already caught the eye of many well-known stylists worldwide. But the emerging designer is no stranger to getting noticed. I personally first met Garro three years ago at Hot n Spicy in downtown San José, Costa Rica’s capital city—the go-to party for anyone who dreams of being somebody. Although he stands at only 5’4”, Garro didn’t get lost...
