Style Points is a weekly column about how fashion intersects with the wider world. You don’t exactly need to be a scholar of fashion to know that its pendulum always swings between extremes—dress silhouettes go from bandages to sacks and back, and the instant a trend hits its saturation point, you can bet that its

Jeremy Scott is fashion’s ultimate nostalgia merchant. Barbie, My Little Pony, SpongeBob SquarePants: He’s put them all on a runway at some point. A regressive mood has predominated during the pandemic—we’ve found ourselves swaddled in sweatsuits, tie-dyeing and coloring our way through quarantine as though we’re back in the recess yard. But the Moschino creative

When Allbirds launched in 2016, it gained traction as the buzziest new shoe brand for its comfortable designs married with eco-friendly and sustainable practices. It’s a cult favorite through and through. The brand has since launched sneakers tailored more for workouts with its Tree Dashers and Runners, but today, it announced a collaboration with Adidas

Gwyneth Palthrow has never shied away from, well, anything. The actress is now her lifestyle brand goop, the one-stop destination for reaching peak Gwyneth-ness, jade egg and all.

Ever since Lana Condor splashed on the scene with Netflix’s To All the Boys I’ve Loved, she’s become a default influencer.

Dressing for the summer always has its particular challenges. There’s the not-insignificant task of dressing for a 50-degree morning that shifts quickly into an 85-degree scorcher. Then it’s a balancing act of dressing well without sacrificing comfort and breathability in the humidity. This summer in particular has its extra stressors, as people emerge from quarantine

Whether you’re burning the midnight oil at home or squeezing in a sweat sesh in between Zoom calls, one thing’s for sure: a quality pair of headphones can be the saving grace of your home life—especially if you’re living with roommates. Chances are that after using the same pair for so long, they’re getting a

What will we wear when we make our much-anticipated return to society? It’s a question that’s occupied our minds ever since we first began entertaining visions of a post-pandemic world. For the past year, our office blazers and party heels have given way to cozy—sometimes chic, and, er, sometimes not—sweatsuits and slip-on sandals. And our

For prefall, a new variation has emerged: zoom-in clothes, garments peppered or patterned with logos so covert, so camouflaged, one must get close up to spot the

The First Monday in May is a holiday in the fashion world. Outside of awards season, the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s annual Costume Institute Gala (also known as the Met Gala) is the most star-studded celebrity event of the year. In 2020, the event, like pretty much everything else in 2020, was canceled because of

AB + DM Christian Serratos likes to make people cry. Fortunately, the actress’s most recent project, the second installment of Netflix’s Selena: The Series, offers ample opportunities. In one scene from Part 2 (premiering today), Serratos, who plays the iconic Tejano singer, is laying down vocals for “No Me Queda Más” in a recording booth

TikTok, what would we do without you? The app is now the go-to place to discover Amazon treasures—butt-lifting leggings, retro sunglasses, Gossip Girl-ready pleated skirts, to name a few—and if you’re someone who always has their eyeballs glued to their FYP, you’re aware that the it-pieces are consistently changing. Right now, it’s all about the

When it comes to fashion, famed film director Jean Cocteau did not mince words. “Art produces ugly things which frequently become more beautiful with time,” he once said. “Fashion, on the other hand, produces beautiful things which always become ugly with time.” Within the cyclical nature of fashion, Chanel has always managed to curtail the

Xiye Bastida already knows what it means to have her life forever altered by the effects of climate change. The 19-year-old climate activist grew up in San Pedro Tultepec, Mexico, where unprecedented rainfall caused flooding that kept her from attending school. When she moved to New York City in 2015, she saw the damage caused

Some people were born into entrepreneurship, others planned for it. Then, there’s Liya Kebede who considers herself an “accidental entrepreneur.” For most international supermodels, you can almost predict their trajectory—supermodel status, then brand ambassador, then beauty brand or clothing line will follow suit. But Kebede’s path wasn’t that clear cut. When she refers to herself

What daughter hasn’t raided her mother’s closet at some point? Clomping around the house in a pair of too-big high heels is practically a sartorial rite of passage.
