The Most Eye-Catching Beauty Looks from Euphoria Season Two (W Magazine)

ji
If you’re watching Euphoria season two for another round of envelope-pushing makeup looks, you’ll have to look a little closer this time. The mind behind the HBO show’s headline-worthy makeup, Doniella Davy, told Us Weekly that this season, she’s describing the looks as “discoverable” as opposed to in-your-face. “It’s not a repeat of season one,” she said, but instead “more refined and more subtle.” In fact, on Instagram, she referred to the season two makeup looks as “season one’s more introverted sister.” Of course, that doesn’t mean the show will be without its iconic glitter and eye liner. “There’s a steady ‘quiet’ to her, until she’s suddenly loud,” Davy said of the makeup. “She has her full glam moments but then switches to super minimalism.” For the most...

oj
Just when we thought we’ve seen it all when it comes to beaded accessories, from phone straps to necklaces, we’re introduced to yet another way to wear this kitschy trend for 2022. Right before the new year on Thursday, Dec. 30, Bella Hadid showed off her OOTD — a sporty, Y2K raver-like ensemble of Adidas, vintage Kenzo, and layered jewelry from Bvlgari, The M Jewelers, Mazza Boutique, and more. But the star of her end-of-the-year ‘fit was the collection of sparkly gems dangling from Hadid’s vibrant knitted beanie, which she also complemented with a multicolored mohair scarf. The names behind the dazzling charms are Canadian jewelry artist Brandon Hurtado Sandler, known for crafting intricate jewelry, like earring cuffs and lip rings, and knitwear designer Lindsay Vrckovnik. The two...

THE NEW GOING-OUT “IT” BAG IS COVERED IN CRYSTALS (NYLON)

IHH
As you enter the fall and holiday party season (beyond your Zoom rectangle), it is time to shop for a new going-out bag. While the baguette style has become a go-to for evening plans, the crystal bag, covered in all things sparkly and beaded, packs a glamorous punch. Luxury brands, like Prada, Chanel, and Fendi have been enhancing their classic silhouettes with sequins, rhinestones, and beads, resulting in a KiraKira-inspired revamp. Off the runway, cult-favorite brands, such By Far, Les Petits Joueurs, and Staud, are also taking this glistening embellishment to the next level. By Far’s holographic material elevates its Y2K-style baguette bag, while Staud’s all-over rhinestones bring major disco-ball energy to the mini bag silhouette. Celebrities are welcoming the crystal-bag trend with designer...

Take a Trip into Kanye West’s Mind With His New YEEZY Gap Commercial (W Magazine)

hu
After months of anticipation, the YEEZY Gap train is officially moving. On Monday night, ESPN aired the first-ever commercial for the collab, a hauntingly dark and mystical clip set to Kanye West’s Donda track, “Heaven and Hell.” The two-and-a-half minute video features figures walking around a city, all wearing matching black hoodies and sweatpants, with masks covering their entire faces, in a quintessentially West way. The shot jumps to a view of West’s silhouette, rapping in front of a bright light, his own zipped-up mask over his face. As he raps, hundreds of the sweatsuit-clothed figures float around him. The video ends with various shots of what looks to be an uprising, followed by a black screen with the YZY symbol. Of course, the...

From Squid Game to Supernova: Inside the Whirlwind with Hoyeon Jung (VOGUE)

ssqs
hen Hoyeon Jung landed in America for the first time in nearly a year, she noticed that something in the air had changed. A kind of charge seemed to hover around the South Korean model turned actor, once known for her incandescent red hair, now famed for her role as a brooding North Korean defector in the Netflix hit Squid Game. She stepped briskly through the LAX terminal to the immigration desk where a delighted officer promptly asked for her autograph. A few days later she sat down to breakfast at the Beverly Hills Hotel, ensconced in a striped banquette, casual in jeans and a blue Henley, dark hair hastily pulled into a low ponytail. No one paid her any mind—this was the...

12 New Fashion Ideas From the Pre-Fall 2022 Collections (VOGUE)

rtg
This pre-fall season is the smallest we’ve covered on Vogue Runway in nearly a decade, with around 100 women’s and men’s collections in total. In the past, our pre-fall coverage has taken our critics around the globe. With Omicron spiking this year, some brands are trying to make the best of a difficult situation; others are on taking the season off. The independent Milan designer Marco Zanini said, “sometimes to carry on with reckless stubbornness is not as smart, wise, or brave as to pause and think.” Even in the best of times, pre-fall has traditionally been a stop-gap season, one that’s more about selling than new ideas. But after two years of pandemic, even the idea of selling clothing has...
