Dua Lipa Is The Biggest JW Anderson Fan Girl (VOGUE UK)

ftff
Dua Lipa is obsessed with fashion. Whether she’s wearing custom neon Balenciaga bodysuits for the Miami leg of her Future Nostalgia world tour, or head-to-toe Versace straight off the runway on a casual day, the pop superstar has a knack for serving jaw-dropping looks. And of late, Dua has developed a real taste for London brand JW Anderson. In her latest Instagram photo dump, the 26-year-old wears a red and white tracksuit from JW Anderson’s autumn/winter 2022 collection (look 22, to be exact about it). But this isn’t Dua’s first time wearing pieces by creative director Jonathan Anderson. Just days before, the singer posted a series of backstage shots that featured a slouchy blue pair of trousers adorned with a graphic cartoon print from the brand’s autumn/winter 2022...

Julia Fox Will Be All Over KNWLS’s Moody AW22 Collection (VOGUE UK)

jij
The new collection from KNWLS is a love letter to the KNWLS woman. “The concept was about creating this chaotic, post-apocalyptic fantasy world, where our woman survives and thrives,” say co-creative directors Charlotte Knowles and Alexandre Arsenault of the inspiration behind their autumn/winter 2022 line, Precious. Seven months after the former Fashion East alum’s showcased their spring/summer 2022 line in a parking garage in central London, the South London-based creatives have returned with another daring line, this time unveiled in an atmospheric short film. “This was a long season. Development was delayed, which is why we decided to skip February fashion week this year,” Knowles explains. After experiencing delays due to post-pandemic sampling issues in Italy, releasing the aptly-named line, which has a...

Recent trends like midriff-flossing and cut-outs suggest that designers really want us to flash the flesh. A great half-way house is second-skin mesh. Mugler is keeping several celebrities in haute mesh. Creative director Casey Cadwallader has continued the legacy of the late, great Thierry Mugler by creating innately sexy clothes, crafted using advanced fabric technology. “So much of Mugler is about making sure that the clothes aren’t restrictive, and that different curves can fit the garments in different ways,” he told Vogue of his spring/summer 2021 showcase, which saw Alek Wek, Dominique Jackson, Bella Hadid and Hunter Schafer wear his second-skin designs. Dominique Jackson wearing Casey Cadwallader’s spring/summer 2021 Mugler collection. Small-scale brands, including independent Depopers and Etsy sellers, have also been peddling the mesh...

17 FASHION FINDS TO CHANNEL A “COCONUT GIRL” SUMMER (NYLON)

jiji
Back for another round of warm-weather dressing, TikTok’s favorite summer aesthetic “Coconut Girl” is characterized by clothes made with tropical floral patterns, colorful crochet, and bright hues. There’s a sense of nostalgia to the look that feels like an ode to the days of puka-shell necklaces from your Hawaiian family vacation or Aquamarine’s youthful, beachy vibes. Plus, mixing maximal colors and prints for a bright beach-day outfit is in line with the trend’s positive attitude. There’s also some escapism that comes with summertime and vacation mode, too. The “Coconut Girl” aesthetic brings that to life through Hawaiian-hibiscus print, crochet bags, floral bucket hats, shell jewelry, and statement shades. And while you could wear them all separately for a more relaxed take, the point of the stylish...

Lensed by Los Angeles-based photographer Coughs, the 25-year-old was captured in a number of fashion-forward ensembles, from oversized fuzzy hats and fishnets to head-to-toe bling...

Best Fashion Instagrams of the Week: Paloma Elsesser, Rosalía, Jonah Hill, and More (VOGUE)

drd
First thing’s first: Let’s all wish a happy birthday to Paloma Elsesser. The supermodel celebrated her 30th birthday looking as chic and as glowing as ever at her epic bash in Jamaica. The Vogue cover star looked absolutely stunning, of course, and opted for a fire-engine red clingy off-the-shoulder dress. Another bonus? Her equally stunning group of gals joined her, too. Rosalía posed pretty for Instagram in an artfully shredded white top with slits on the sides and a black leather bag on her arm. (It nicely contrasted with red eyeliner swiped below her brows). Of course, she accessorized with her signature pout. But it wasn’t only the girls who were having fun this week: Jonah Hill, surrounded by some Los Angeles lush, perfected...

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

gygftf
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...
