Dua Lipa May Be On Vacation, But Her Outfits Are Hard at Work (VOGUE)

ppppp
Dua Lipa is currently out of office. Okay, the pop star hardly works a traditional 9-to-5, but she is indeed on vacation this week. But while she’s relaxing, her getaway style is still working overtime. Lipa has been serving bold statement looks galore while visiting Albania—and, lucky for us, uploading them to Instagram. It all began with a bikini look just a few days ago. With the assist of her stylist, Lorenzo Posocco, Lipa wore a cropped New York tee with a hot dog on it, and paired it with a bikini bottom and trucker hat (which are coming back, by the way). A day later, she once again served us a good hat, this time a crocheted, checkered bucket with a red bra top to match....

Dua Lipa’s Yacht Style Goes All in on Bold Color (W Magazine)

wm85
To say that the past 1.5 years have been stressful is an understatement. We are all in desperate need of a vacation, and while we await our own much-deserved holiday, we can live vicariously through famous people’s vacation style. Dua Lipa just shared her own sizzling summer look aboard a yacht with her beau, Anwar Hadid, and as the reigning U.K. disco-pop revival queen, she added a splash of ’70s appeal. Lipa is wearing a mini dress by the swimwear designer Louisa Ballou. The plunging neckline features a very on-trend o-ring hardware, and is printed with gorgeous orange painterly flowers—it seems to be the color of the summer, and the tank silhouette acts as the perfect cover-up for her black leatherette string bikini. She paired...

Rihanna’s Love of Fur Hats Continues, Even Amid Summer (W Magazine)

wm84
It usually isn’t too hard to keep up with the many trends Rihanna sets, but following suit this time around will take some bravery (and sweat): Lately, she’s been wearing pink fuzzy hats amid the summer heat. The singer stepped out in her second in a little over a month while in New York City on Monday, again calling to mind the larger-than-life chapeau that Pamela Anderson memorably wore to the 1999 VMAs. Marking another moment for the big pants, little tops trend, she paired her matching pin camisole with a baggy pair of camouflage cargos. Last but not least, she threw in another accessory not typically seen on a summer night: checkered sunglasses. Out-there as it may seem, the statement item is actually relatively low-key compared...

Bella Hadid Just Found Your New Favorite Depop Store (VOGUE)

VG83
Bella Hadid’s appreciation for vintage is well documented. The star cycles through old school Jean Paul Gaultier and aughts-era Tom Ford for Gucci regularly, but she doesn’t limit herself to ultra-luxury designers. Like every other twenty-something, Hadid sources secondhand pieces from her favorite labels online, hitting up Depop for archival JPG outerwear like the puffer she showed off on Instagram back in December and frequenting sellers like  Dutch Fonzie. This week Hadid showed off her latest acquisition from the platform: a two-piece set from Susamusa, created from deadstock fabric. Spotted running errands in Tribeca on Sunday, Hadid wore the sheerest of shirts and a matching pencil skirt with a lettuce trim hem. Made from vintage black mesh and detailed with white embroidered florals and swirling...

Rihanna Cast an All-Black Motorcycle Crew for Her Latest Savage X Fenty Campaign (VOGUE)

vg8222
New Orleans’ Caramel Curves, an all-Black women’s biking crew founded in 2005 by Nakosha “Coco” Smith and Shanika “Tru” Beatty, has already enjoyed the limelight for a few years thanks to their head-turning, pedal-to-the-metal clothing. When the 10 active members meet on Sundays, the women dress up in strappy heels fit for a night out, rhinestone-encrusted jackets, customized T-shirts boasting phrases like “anything but basic”, and helmets sprouting with fuchsia mohawks. The color palettes are flashy: blazing hot pinks, radiating highlighter yellows, and searing nuclear greens. There is no shortage of high-wattage glamour. It was enough to catch Rihanna’s eye, and have her cast them to model in the newest campaign for Savage X Fenty. “The Caramel Curves show the world what...

Rihanna Has a Message for the Real Housewives (VOGUE)

PPII
Anyone who has watched an entry in Bravo’s Real Housewives franchise knows that it thrives on drama. After 16 years of table flips, betrayals, and backstabbing, we’re all familiar with the formula, but the final word on the latest altercation came from an unexpected source Rihanna Tensions were high on last night’s episode of Real Housewives of New York, where series veteran Ramona Singer inadvertently insulted newcomer Leah McSweeney, the designer of streetwear brand Married to the Mob. While out to celebrate Singer’s birthday, McSweeney voiced concerns about the upcoming charity single by fellow housewife Luann de Lesseps. This didn’t go over well and led to a spat wherein Singer offered to plug McSweeney’s line. The comment came across as a dig towards McSweeney’s clothing line and...

Over-the-Top Fashion Lady Gaga Makes a Quick Comeback (W Magazine)

mii
Lady Gaga is back, folks. Unlike sexiness, which Justin Timberlake unconvincingly tried to bring back even though it never left, weird fashion Gaga as we know and love her is back on the streets. That is, the kind of Lady Gaga that wears nine-inch Pleaser fetish heels to run errands and an actual wedding gown during a heatwave. Her theatrical looks are a blessing on the timeline, a signal that (sorry, I have to say it!) nature is healing, and that cosmos are realigning into something approaching normalcy. Lady Gaga wears strange things, and we adore her for it. After a stint wearing rather traditional (by Gaga’s standards, anyway) formal dresses out and about, Mother Monster was spotted dashing about in the aforementioned shoes for the second time this week....

DUA LIPA CHANNELS ROYALCORE IN “DEMEANOR” MUSIC VIDEO (NYLON)

NYYPP
Dua Lipa is still hard at work, as she stars in a brand new music video for “Demeanor” by the late rapper Pop Smoke, which debuted on Thursday. The Future Nostalgia singer channeled royalcore (or Regencycore for the Bridgerton fans) for her latest look, wearing a vintage corset piece from Jean Paul Gaultier’s Spring 1998 couture collection, as hinted by stylist Lorenzo Possoco on Instagram, and Vram jewelry. While Gaultier’s original 18th-century-inspired design was paired with a fitted black gown on the runway, Possoco swapped the dress for a full white ball skirt instead. Plus, in lieu of a crown or tiara to truly give Lipa the full princess aesthetic, hairstylist Chris Appleton gave the pop star bangs and turned her long brown hair into bows. MODEL JULIA SCHÖNBERG WEARING...
