Some note seasonal shifts by changes in temperature, while others rely on solstices and equinoxes as the official marker of another year's quadrants. Others, still, look to aesthetics—and one look at Rihanna's Tuesday Instagram is a sure sign that summer is near. The pop star posted a trio of captures showcasing a high-impact hairstyle and crochet-clad skin defined by its hydrated shine. First came the series of flat-twists that gave way to a crown of diminutive Bantu knots, the ultimate in toppers. Effulgent touches of makeup—a bit of brightening shadow at the corners of each eye, a swipe of glass lipgloss—gave way to limbs showcasing an impressive radiance. The secret? Fenty Beauty's Butta Drop Whipped Oil Body Cream. “One thing bout #BUTTADROP , it’s gon give...

The Magic of Ziwe’s Megawatt Look, Brought to Life by Stylist Pamela Shepard-Hill (VOGUE)

by cometrend

CELEB, FASHION

Comedian Ziwe Fumudoh is destined to be a household name. That much is clear on her new show, simply titled Ziwe and brought to you by A24 and Showtime. Both campy and elegant, the talk show packs a punch with its layered commentary on race and ample wit. But the look is bigger and brighter than what you expect from late night or daytime. In a cabaret-style musical skit, Ziwe sings, “Lisa called the cops on Black people, even just for taking a stroll,” grooving in a LaQuan Smith black catsuit with sheer panels streaming up the thighs. It’s all delightfully extra. The show’s clothes are made to look larger than life. “The intention was to create looks that aided Ziwe in the...

Billie Eilish Says her New Blonde Hair Was Inspired By Fan Art (W Magazine)

BEAUTY, CELEB, MUSIC

By now, the entire world knows that Billie Eilish has blonde hair. Her photo on Instagram showing off her new color transformation became one of the most-liked posts of all time, and her hair plays a starring role in her new Vogue UK cover spread. For Eilish, going from black with slime green roots to full-on platinum blonde coincides with the release of her new album Happier Than Ever — and had been in the works for some time. “I’ve been wanting it blonde for a while,” said Eilish in a recent appearance on Ellen. She also revealed that a fan had inspired the look: “I saw a fan edit when I had green hair. It was like me, with whatever hair color I had, and they just edited blonde hair on...

Blackpink’s Rosé Is Saint Laurent’s Modern-Day Muse (W Magazine)

by cometrend

FASHION, MUSIC

Rarely has heartbreak looked so attractive. “Why’d you have to hit and run me? Now I’m all alone cryin’ ugly,” sings the Korean megastar Rosé, swaddled in bright green marabou feathers. Rosé is known to many millions around the world as a member of the red-hot K-pop foursome Blackpink, but we see her here in her second solo video, for a song called “Gone,” which dropped earlier this year. In another scene from the same video, she beats up a pillow. Once again, she is draped in marabou, but this time in a deep blue. She might be crying, but she sure isn’t crying ugly. Perhaps marabou feathers help ease romantic pain. “For us, when we listen to a song, we...

How Indigenous Model Quannah Chasinghorse Is Redefining Beauty (VOGUE)

For Vogue Mexico’s May issue, the publication wanted a cover star who represents “the face of a new generation of models,” and Indigenous model Quannah Chasinghorse certainly embodies this in more ways than one. Photographed by Inez & Vinoodh for the cover (in an ethereal Valentino dress, no less) the 18-year-old is a refreshing addition to the fashion scene: She proudly displays her traditional tattoos, rocks authentic Indigenous style, and has an array of impressive activism work under her belt too. In the process, she’s also breaking barriers, providing much-needed representation for Indigenous people in an industry that has long overlooked and excluded Indigenous talent. Currently based in Fairbanks, Alaska, Chasinghorse—who is Hän Gwich’in and Oglala Lakota—is still relatively new to modeling. She...

The Chocolate-Hued Lipstick That Has Become My Beauty Go-To (VOGUE)

by cometrend

BEAUTY

My approach to makeup throughout quarantine has been quite minimal, save for the occasional eye makeup to hide my fatigue (a touch of concealer, mascara, and a bit of eyebrow pencil). I wasn’t a huge makeup wearer to begin with, and with all the mask wearing, I wanted to give my face a break as well as avoid breakouts. So in lieu of any contour or bright eyeliner, I’ve come to treasure lipstick as a way of spicing things up before a Zoom meeting—and not just any lipstick. During a time of tumultuous change, I’ve found myself clinging to what I know, which has meant that my choices in entertainment have come with a heavy dose of nostalgia. Revisiting music videos like “Are...

THE TRUCKER HAT’S INEVITABLE RETURN HAS ARRIVED (NYLON)

by cometrend

CELEB, FASHION

Cast your mind back to the early 2000s. Lindsay Lohan is wearing a “Drama Queen” trucker hat ahead of the MTV VMAs, and paparazzi shots of Britney Spears show the pop star out and about in a Von Dutch cap. Although Paris Hilton recently said she wouldn’t engage in the return of the early-aughts fashion trend — despite wearing one often on The Simple Life — the trucker hat is back, in a big way. With Bella Hadid recently securing Von Dutch’s return to relevance, and Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, and Gigi Hadid all stepping out in the vintage-inspired accessory, it was only a matter of time before the infamous style began trending again. These days, however, nostalgic thrifted brands are met with modern versions from new designers like Mowalola, whose popular...

The Hidden Meanings Behind Emma Stone’s Wild Beauty Looks in Disney’s Cruella (VOGUE)

by cometrend

BEAUTY, CELEB

Few screen villains have captured the imagination quite like Cruella de Vil, who was famously brought to life by Glenn Close in Disney’s 1996 live-action adaptation, 101 Dalmatians. Deliciously wicked and with a wardrobe to die for (quite literally), Cruella was the ultimate baddie. But how did she get to be so dastardly? This is the question that underpins director Craig Gillespie’s origin story, Cruella. Starring Emma Stone in the title role, and set in the vibrant punk era of 1970s London, the film follows Estella, a rebellious young grifter who—with her natural black-and-white hair, which she disguises with red hair dye—has always felt like an outsider. With dreams of making it as a fashion designer, she soon catches the attention of industry...

How Rastah Champions Pakistani Culture Through Streetwear (VOGUE)

by cometrend

CULTURE, FASHION

Streetwear is growing up. Once relegated to the wardrobes of hypebeasts, new labels are using their graphic hoodies or jackets to grab your attention and to make a powerful statement about politics or culture. It’s a global movement, too. Mobilize, for instance, uses its drops to educate others about Indigenous life and traditions. There’s also a new streetwear label out of Pakistan who is also championing South Asian culture—and its pieces are just downright cool, too. Rastah was founded in 2018 by cousins Zain, Ismail, and Adnan Ahmad, who are based out of Lahore, Pakistan. Zain, the creative director of the label, grew up in London, Toronto, and Vancouver as well, but is consistently inspired by the city. “Lahore is an incredibly...

The Metaverse’s First Runway Show Is Coming—And Collina Strada, Mowalola, and Gypsy Sport Are Headlining (VOGUE)

by cometrend

FASHION

The online metaverse and social networking site IMVU grew by 44% during the pandemic; it now attracts 7 million active users a month, most of them female or female-identifying and aged from 18 to 24. If you aren’t one of those millions, here’s a primer: On IMVU, users create personal avatars and dress them in clothes designed by fellow users—creators, in site parlance—bought with credits paid for with real money. The point of IMVU is to connect virtually with friends and to potentially make new ones, but shopping is no small part of the site’s attraction. IMVU’s virtual store features 50 million items made by over 200,000 creators. Fourteen billion in credits, or $14 million, exchanges hands over 27 million...
