Like so many fans of Wicked, Ariana Grande was just a kid—10 years old, to be exact—when she saw the Broadway show for the first time, and it immediately imprinted itself on her. “I loved it to death,” she says. “I know my life in two chapters: before seeing Wicked and after seeing Wicked; before seeing Harry Potter, after seeing Harry Potter. And”—she adds with a laugh—“before Little Antonio, after Little Antonio.” The latter is a reference to her performance in the viral SNL sketch “Castrati,” in which she played a young boy with a bowl haircut who’s able to hit the highest of notes after being castrated. Beyond having a once-in-a-generation voice and two Grammy wins under her belt, Grande, now 31, is famously a master of...

It’s a great day to be a party girl. We’re not only covering exciting events in this edition of FOMO, but our very own Lauren McCarthy just documented her Paris Fashion Week soirées, dinners, and early-morning bashes in our first Going-Out Diary. We’ll still be bringing the FOMO when we can, of course, as there are plenty of parties we can’t make it to that are still worthy of your eyeballs. Below, a few gatherings we were at (and some we were not) from a week full of gag-worthy fashion news and smoked salmon blinis. RABANNE & GIGI GO GOLDEN Gigi Hadid was fresh off a plane from Paris Fashion Week to stop in at the Million Gold pop-up in Flatiron, where the new Rabanne fragrance was passed around. After a photo op,...

The relationship between pop star and stylist is a dance between muse and artist — and, just like Julia Fox, we don’t say “muse” lightly. Take, for instance, Lady Gaga and Nicola Formichetti, or Charli XCX and Chris Horan, or Dara and Addison Rae. A stylist and image maker who’s most recently caught our attention is Ron Hartleben, the man behind Sabrina Carpenter’s “Please Please Please” furs and corsets and Tyla’s notably excellent fashion run of late. Making your favorite main characters look good goes beyond having good taste, as Hartleben tells NYLON. “It's about confidence and comfort,” he says, “because if they don't believe in what they're wearing, then no one else will.” After cutting his teeth under Carine Roitfeld at CR Fashion Book, Hartleben has worked in editorial and celebrity styling,...

BACKGRID As someone with a net worth north of $1 billion, Rihanna certainly knows a thing or two about the so-called rich mom aesthetic. But instead of draping herself in quiet luxury neutrals à la Angelina Jolie, Rihanna’s take on the viral trend involved mixing a bloke-core soccer jersey with some trophy designer vintage. Rihanna, out dining at her go-to L.A. eatery Giorgio Baldi last night, donned a graphic polo shirt from the cult London designer Martine Rose’s fall 2024 collection. Her top was conveniently branded with the name of her youngest son Riot, who she and A$AP Rocky welcomed in August 2023. Perhaps this runway piece is all part of Rihanna’s recent goal of wanting to take the “ick” out of being a soccer...

While it seems like Mother Nature is playing tricks on us all with the pendulum swinging from “I need to break out my puffers” to “Why did I ever buy this double-faced wool jacket?”, there’s no getting around the need for outerwear right now. We predicted in our fall coat guide that shaggy, furry, and shearling coats would be everywhere this fall, and our favorite style stars are proving us right. There’s a twist, though: The coats might be sumptuous, and some with a five-digit price tag, the ladies are still baring skin while it’s temperate enough to do so. Rosalía and EmRata solidfy outerwear expert Charlotte Simone as a must-have brand, while Charli XCX goes for a cropped take, and Rihanna embodies her inner...

@dualipa Like each and every pop diva that came before her, Dua Lipa understands the power of a good, high boot. After kicking off her Radical Optimism tour earlier this week, the singer has been rocking almost exclusively knee-high footwear in the days since—both on and off the stage. And her latest pair just so happen to be straight from the Paris runways. Dua slipped into a patterned mini dress that featured a teensy pleated skirt. Instead of choosing something practical like the Puma Speedcat sneakers she’s been wearing recently, Dua opted for some PVC statement shoes from Acne Studios’s spring 2025 collection. They featured a pointed-toe front and a bold pattern of neon yellow roses. Dua finished off her outfit with some tinted GCDS glasses...
