Mugler’s Spring 2022 Collection Video Celebrates What Casey Cadwallader Does Best by Carolyn Twersky (W Magazine)

huh
Throughout his time as the creative director of Mugler, Casey Cadwallader has become a bit of a go-to designer for pop stars, with everyone from Dua Lipa to Cardi B eager to get their hands on his illusion catsuits. This high demand, as well as Cadwallader’s close proximity to the on-stage set, has allowed the designer to perfect the suit and fit an artist’s specific needs. “A performer essentially wants to feel safe on stage, they don’t want to fall out of something,” Cadwallader said during a Zoom meeting with reporters on June 2nd. “They keep evolving,” he said of the bodysuits, and Mugler’s spring ready-to-wear collection shows the latest iteration of what is now being referred to as the “pop star uniform.” So,...

7 DENIM TRENDS THAT ARE GOING TO BE EVERYWHERE THIS SUMMER (NYLON)

fff
If you’re anything like us, even the thought of jeans in the summer makes you overheat. But luckily, there’s still plenty of ways to wear denim during the warm-weather months. Corset tops, vests, skirts, and baggy shorts are just a few of the already-trending items that serve as a stylish alternative to your standard pair of blue jeans. Denim from every era seems to be back in our wardrobes, as well, and most significantly, styles of the ‘90s and early 2000s. From the dreaded low-rise to ankle-grazing maxi skirts, denim items that were never expected to return are now some of the hottest on the market. Another exciting development of this resurgence is the revival of brands like Jordache and Diesel that do denim so well. Plus,...

An Exclusive Look At Isamaya Ffrench’s Debut Make-Up Collection (British VOGUE)

jij
Isamaya Ffrench is sitting at an outside table at London’s The Maine, a stone throw’s from Vogue’s HQ. It’s a particularly sunny Spring day and everyone is full of cheer, which makes what she’s about to unveil that much more subversive. Taking its cues from the visual lexicon of BDSM culture – the lids of two serums and a mascara come skewered with wearable hard metal piercings, while a bound rubbery figure emerges from a 14 pan eyeshadow palette – Isamaya’s first make-up collection (the Industrial collection), for her brand new beauty brand, Isamaya, and its accompanying Steven Klein-lensed campaign, is as much a statement about the beauty industry as it is about beauty. Because Isamaya isn’t your typical beauty brand: it’s not selling you some...

Hate Florals? Try These Summer Prints Instead (British VOGUE)

kik
There aren’t many prints that are more synonymous with summer than florals. Whether it’s the ditzy flowers of the ’40s or the psychedelic blooms of the ’60s, posies have been reworked over the decades, taking on a variety of guises at the hands of different designers. Every year without fail you can expect to witness the floral infiltration of fashion, which sees even the most minimalist brands submit to the trend’s whimsical charm. What’s a floral-ambivalent fashion lover to do? If, like me, you prefer to have your foliage attached to a trellis rather than your trousers, shopping in the warmer months can present a bit of a challenge. However, I’m happy to report that there are plenty of summer-ready alternatives to try. Thanks to...

Bella Hadid Blurs The Line Between Pajamas and Swimwear (W Magazine)

ftf
It’s possible the pandemic made us rethink the way we looked at pajamas. Pre-2020, sleepwear was mostly confined to the home, aside from the occasional quick pharmacy run to grab to grab some cold medicine when sick. But after two years of fully embracing sweatpants, and with the companies like Sleeper popping up and elevating pajamas to the point where they resemble formalwear, sleepwear has slowly made its way out of the house and into other parts of our lives. Rihanna recently proved boxers can become going out gear with the right accessories, and now, Bella Hadid is making a case to bring them to the beach. Now, the beach seems like the last place you would want to wear pajamas—the sand getting...

Balenciaga Barbie Is Kim Kardashian’s New Fashion Alter-Ego (VOGUE)

ftft
Kim Kardashian is the undisputed queen of Balenciaga. Having modeled a multitude of looks by the Parisian maison—from the trio of jaw-dropping outfits on Saturday Night Live, to that incognito Met Gala moment that sent the internet into a frenzy and her spring 2022 campaign—it’s evident that Kim is diehard fan of the brand. Her latest look proves she’s just as dedicated as ever. In her latest Instagram post, captioned “Pics by North,” the 41-year-old entrepreneur wore an all-pink ensemble that’s entirely Balenciaga. The look consisted of a cropped hoodie, a striking pair of Spandex Knife pantaboots, a diamanté Hourglass mini bag, and silver cat-eye sunglasses. Thanks to an all-pink backdrop, the Barbie doll influence is clear. But this isn’t Kim’s first time wearing head-to-toe pink. She’s made...
