While we can’t believe that we’re more than halfway through 2022, it’s been shaping up to be an exciting year for fashion. Runway shows are back and bigger than ever; collaborations are still going strong with surprise partnerships (Yeezy Gap and Balenciaga, Gucci and Adidas, to name a few); and somehow, Barbie’s signature pink wardrobe has become a massive, widespread style inspiration. In the shopping space, we’re seeing unexpected brands rise to the top, plenty of nostalgic items making a comeback (to no one’s surprise), and, of course, a lot of handbags making it onto everyone’s wishlist. The category still remains one of the most lucrative assets for any fashion brand, so if a certain style goes viral, consider it a very good thing. Ahead, see...

It doesn’t take a fashion expert to see that skin-bearing silhouettes are spiking this season. Following a fallow year (or three) where oversized, covered-up clothing reigned and comfort was king, it seems as though the fashion world has rebelled, taking scissors to their designs (not literally, as far as I’m aware), and slashing and slicing them with abandon. Summer dresses, in particular, have been subject to this treatment, with cut-out styles appearing on the runways of designers such as Proenza Schouler, Nensi Dojaka and Nanushka. But, unlike the infamous “naked dress”, these skin-flashing pieces are, in many cases, totally wearable and undeniably polished. The joy of the cut-out dress lies in the conceal-and-reveal element. Think: a slither of under-boob, a flash...

New season, new fantasies. The next wave of fashion all about pushing limits, and these six designers do just that. From their daring headpieces to playful experimentations with color and texture, the new vanguard of designers are taking fashion in a bold direction, down the path first explored by Off-White's Virgil Abloh. Continuing along Abloh's journey are his imaginative Off-White, sustainable trendsetter Kevin Germanier, fluid storyteller Harris Reed, surrealist Jonathan Anderson, textile explorer Richard Quinn, and couture enchantress Miss Sohee. Each designer is a true visionary, and their work brings fashion's wildest fantasies to life.

What is summer without a gorgeous roster of dresses to rotate around? Well, that’s the opinion of the British Vogue editors, who not only have their own dress style signatures down to a fine art, but who are also often found influencing the purchases of their colleagues and friends. Take European beauty and wellness director, Jessica Diner, whose floral dress collection is now a fully fledged part of her wardrobe DNA, or commerce director, Naomi Smart, who rarely steers away from a body-con midi. But what’s on the agenda for July? Slinky slips that can roll into a carry-on just as easy as they can roll out (because, really, who is still contemplating checking in luggage in the midst of a travelling surge?). Beach restaurant-ready dresses that you can fling over...

If you’re anti-handbag, we’ve got good news for you. Cargo pants—the kind with big, bulky pockets that can store just about anything—are trending on the runway and off. We’ve seen cropped styles at Jacquemus, classic iterations at Lacoste, and shiny satin pants at Tom Ford. If you’re hesitant about the utilitarian (and very Y2K) style, allow Kim Kardashian to serve up some styling inspo: She emerged in New York today wearing a huge cargo pair of her own.

To offset the wide-leg silhouette, she paired the hefty trousers with a sleek tank top, and pointed...

During a hot summer afternoon at the Élysée Montmartre theater in Paris, the Dutch designer Iris Van Herpen tinkers with the last few stitches of her fall 2022 couture collection, one day before the show is slated to debut on July 4th. But instead of reworking a piece of traditional embroidery or tailoring an uneven hem, Van Herpen is looking over 3-D printed fibers made from cocoa beans that form a jumpsuit with copper-coated details and upcycled organza. In another corner, a team inspects wing-like 3-D printed shoes, while others ensure a futuristic gown made of bananas that were turned into biodegradable fabric and combined with raw silk is ready for its big runway debut. It all may seem like...
