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

gygggg
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)

ftf
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...

Celine Kwan’s Energetic Clothes Aim to Make You Smile (VOGUE)

Capture
Growing up in London, designer Celine Kwan remembers her mother always looking fabulous no matter where they went. “My mother’s my muse. She’s a fashion icon to me,” Kwan tells Vogue. “She’s really glamorous. She will not step out of the house without her red lipstick, and always has to have her whole look set—with the matching handbag.” It’s one of her earliest memories that got Kwan interested in fashion, and today, the ethos behind her namesake brand hasn’t changed much. Kwan’s energetic clothes aim to infuse a dash of irreverent style to the everyday, just like her mother has always done. Kwan moved to London from Hong Kong when she was 12, and graduated with a degree in fashion design and print from...

Cardi B’s Latest Printed Hair Is Truly Next Level (W Magazine)

huhuh
When it comes to statement hairstyles, no one does it like Cardi B. For proof of that, look no further than the time she took logomania to the perfect level of extreme by printing her with the same design as her ensemble by Louis Vuitton. Two years later, the 29-year-old rapper has finally been upstaged—by none other than Cardi B herself. On Thursday night, she casually stepped onto the Dougie B’s “Shake It” music video with pin-straight red locks printed like a bandanna. Indeed, from a distance, you’d have thought she had draped one over her head. How did Cardi achieve such a look? Hairstylist Elisha Michelle began by taking an originally platinum blonde full lace wig from the virgin hair company Kendra’s...

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

hygyh
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)

gggyg
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,...
