On the last day of New York Fashion Week, we were basically running on coffee and fumes. Thankfully, beautiful clothing, live music, and french fries at Matthew Adams Dolan got us through. Michael Kors Sean ZanniGetty Images Yalitza Aparicio was the star of this season’s front row, which took in a show infused with American

Stuart Wilson/BFCGetty Images Like hurt puppies and drunk Tinder swipers, fashion needs some self-protection right now. That feels especially true in London, where Brexit is more on-again-off-again than a Bachelor in Paradise romance, and environmental protests are hardcore, sincere, and—in the face of the climate crisis—impossible to discount.

No matter your music taste, heading to a concert means you’re in for two things: 1.) feeling deliriously happy and 2.) waking up to a camera roll full of concert clips that will mean nothing to you in two days. The only thing that could make it better? Perfecting the concert lewk—something that’s comfortable enough

For a certain type of woman—the kind whose first concert was an Oklahoma! sing-along instead of Hilary Duff—there’s no better celebrity than Anna Kendrick. A Broadway kid turned movie star, she’s done blockbusters (Pitch Perfect, Twilight), indies (Camp, Drinking Buddies), and a best-selling book (“Scrappy Little Nobody”) about her rise to the top. Kendrick is

A quick Google search will tell you all you need to know about the cure-all and introduce you to a slew of products infused with the compound, including lattes, candles, lip balms, and more claiming to heal your neck, your

No one is having a better week than Rihanna. She shut down NYFW with a super private Savage x Fenty show (streaming on Amazon later this month) and less than 24 hours later, hosted her fifth annual Diamond Ball benefitting the Clara Lionel Foundation. So what do you wear when the red carpet queen herself

Mother, the much beloved L.A.-based denim brand is embracing its free spirited California roots with an inspired 18-piece capsule collection.

Tommaso BoddiGetty Images Though she’s only 21, Halima Aden has lived a lot of life. Born and raised in a refugee camp in Kenya before moving to the U.S. at age seven, in 2017, Aden became the first mode wearing a hijab to walk a show during New York Fashion Week. Since then she’s become

The world begins and ends with Rihanna, and so did Tuesday night. At 9:30 pm sharp, the superstar appeared front row center at her own Savage x Fenty fashion show, performing a dance routine choreographed by Parris Goebel that was fierce, fearless, and (in the parlance of Dance Moms) technically perfect. Kacey Musgraves screamed. Ashley

VERA WANG Peter WhiteGetty Images You were expecting a wedding dress? Oops. Instead, Vera Wang returned to the New York fashion calendar with a Dark Crystal kind of magic, replete with sheer midnight lace, whirlpool hems made from tulle, and chain mail armor accents, because let’s face it, before that Vera Wang wedding dress—and sometimes

NYFW is about to come an end, leaving us with an idea of what we’ll all be wearing next Spring. We’re predicting big pants, short shorts, and one bold color that’s much brighter than Millennial lavender. Scroll through for the the biggest trends from the Spring 2020 season thus far. Editor’s note: The fashion flock

I want to be upset at Rihanna for not giving us an album in nearly four years—I really do. But there’s no way one can stay mad at Rihanna when she’s been committed to blessing us with gifts at every turn. Her latest gift, the second Savage x Fenty show, might be the greatest gift

Next year’s it-bags are finally starting to crop up at NYFW, and we’re taking notes. Think leather shoulder bags trimmed in ostrich feather, bedazzled evening bags you’ll re-style with denim, and, of course, the itty-bitty bag (because sometimes you choose style over practicality.) Click through to see what your favorite brands—including Brandon Maxwell, Staud, and

Tommy Hilfiger and Zendaya Coleman’s first outing was a very big deal featuring none other than Grace Jones. Last night, they managed to top themselves presenting a cinematic ’70s-inspired collection at the historic Apollo Theater in Harlem. The show actually took place just outside the theater (the auditorium was used as a production staging area).

Diversity and inclusion is a never ending topic of discussion within the fashion industry. How does a brand successfully include and market to all types of women without veering into tokenism territory? At Kate Spade New York, designer Nicola Glass offered up a take with a refreshing mix of models, influencers, and “real” women who

As more designers decamp to Paris or choose to forgo invitation-only shows all together, New York Fashion Week has been plagued by that its lost its luster. Ralph Lauren seems determined to change that. Last September, the designer presented his 50th anniversary collection over a lavish dinner and takeover of Central Park’s Bethesda Terrace. For

Alexander Wang and Bvlgari are kind of like X-Men with better shoes: alone, they’re a force; together they’re unstoppable. That’s the verdict after last night, anyway, when Wang debuted his remake of Bvlgari’s famous Serpenti Forever bag, and threw a party for the ages. Scroll down for details that’ll make you feel you were there―but

New York Fashion Week is officially here, and we’re rounding up the freshest looks from the SS20 runways. Jeremy Scott showcased a campy take on The Flintstones, Brandon Maxwell reinterpreted bombshell Hollywood glam, and R13 convinced us that we need a shirt that’s perhaps best described as ‘Hot Cheetos meets Guy Fieri.’ Click through for

Greetings from New York Fashion Week, where the heels are high, the ambitions are higher, and the models vape backstage? Well… let’s leave that one alone.

Astrid StawiarzGetty Images Gigi Hadid’s great at making headlines, so naturally she’s an expert at wearing them, too. At Jeremy Scott’s Spring 2020 fashion show, the supermodel arrived in overalls plastered with news stories—appropriate, since the runway itself was loaded with colorful clickbait.

Leaf Xia “Leaf Xia’s Spring/Summer 2020 collection is focused on the traditional Tang Dynasty aesthetic with a modern feminine edge.

New York Fashion Week has officially kicked off, and while it’s definitely a privilege to look at beautifully constructed clothes for a living, it’s still a job at the end of the day. And like with any gig, sometimes you need some hyper-specific things to get you through those high-stress, fast-paced days. Ahead, five ELLE

In August, Joe Jonas was spotted out in New York City donning a dark blue denim jacket emblazoned with a large portrait of Sophie Turner’s Game of Thrones character, Sansa Stark. The middle Jo Bro has sartorially displayed admiration for his wife before, but the custom-made piece featuring Stark’s imposing visage took it to another

We were all “the new kid” once—in school, on a soccer team, at the first day of work. These 12 designers are no different, except instead of cafeteria jitters or office floor plans, they’ll have to conquer the famously fickle runways at New York Fashion Week. (No pressure!) Let’s meet the new class of 2019,

Can somebody please say a prayer for my debit card? There’s nothing wrong it, per se, but just when I thought I was finished with Fall shopping, Shopbop swooped in with an exclusive capsule collection to celebrate its 20th anniversary with 20 designer pieces from, you guessed it, 20 different designers. The capsule collection, called

To lead or not to lead?
