Here are insider travel tips for those who would never be caught dead in a tourist trap. Bon voyage!</em></p><h2>Who</h2><p>The island that once served as the capital of the Hawaiian Kingdom is a rural gem rich with jaw-dropping nature, eucalyptus-lined cowboy villages, world-class surfing and windsurfing, and deeply layered culture. Three Maui locals share their favorite places and tips for visiting: Naomi Acacia Newirth, the founder and designer of ACACIA Swimwear; Graham Ezzy, a former pro windsurfer who now teaches high-level windsurfing and works with his family company, the iconic Ezzy Sails; and six-time James Beard-nominated Sheldon Simeon, the chef and owner of Tin Roof and the beloved local institution Tiffany’s. Newirth and Ezzy both grew up on Maui and live in the North Shore town of Haiku. Simeon is from Hilo, Hawaii and has been on Maui for over 20 years. He’s based in Wailuku and will release a new cookbook,<a href="https://sites.prh.com/ohana-style" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"> <em>Ohana Style</em>,</a> at the end of March.</p><h2>What</h2><h3><strong>What to Bring</strong></h3><p>Like its neighboring islands, Maui is laid-back at heart. “You don’t need a lot,” says Ezzy. “When I showed up to college, my biggest shock was that people cared about what I wore because on Maui, nobody cares. There’s no dress code. You can go to lunch in a bathing suit or a cocktail dress, whatever makes you feel your best.”</p><div><a href="https://www.acacia.co/products/lauie-crochet-bottom-resort2026"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/71965cf7/apr11-2025-acacia-ecomm0037.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Acacia Lauie Crochet Bikini</h3></a><a href="https://www.acacia.co/products/lauie-crochet-bottom-resort2026"><em>Acacia - </em></a></div><div><a href="https://www.modaoperandi.com/women/p/khaite/boden-raffia-flat/715485"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/5861f552/large_khaite-black-white-boden.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Khaite Boden Raffia Sandals</h3></a><a href="https://www.modaoperandi.com/women/p/khaite/boden-raffia-flat/715485"><em>Moda Operandi - </em></a></div><p>In practice, you can get around with a few swimsuits, worn-in t-shirts, a couple pairs of shorts, and slides. That said, some choice items are advised. Newirth recommends reef-safe sunscreen, plus “a reusable water bottle, comfortable sandals, and light layers for mornings and evenings,” says the designer. “I always suggest swimsuits, sarongs, and simple pieces that move easily from day to night.”</p><div><a href="https://www.net-a-porter.com/en-us/shop/product/tory-burch/clothing/kaftans-and-sarongs/paisley-devore-silk-blend-crepon-pareo/46376663163027233"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/c784cc89/w2000_q60.avif?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Tory Burch Paisley-Devoré Crepon Pareo</h3></a><a href="https://www.net-a-porter.com/en-us/shop/product/tory-burch/clothing/kaftans-and-sarongs/paisley-devore-silk-blend-crepon-pareo/46376663163027233"><em>Net-a-Porter - </em></a></div><p>More than anything, “pack patience,” Simeon says. “Then come with an open heart and understand that people live here. Some people think that the whole island is a resort, but to this day, the Hawaiians say, ‘You take care of the land and the land will take care of you.’ If you come with that respect and understanding, you’ll enjoy Maui.”</p><h3><strong>What to Leave Behind</strong></h3><p>This is not the place to go if you are craving a high-intensity social schedule, nightlife, and big -ity speed. “Leave behind the need to rush,” says Newirth. “Maui reveals itself at a slower pace.”</p><h3><strong>What to Keep in Mind</strong></h3><p>All of our insiders agree: “Be mindful that this is home for the people who live here,” says Ezzy. “Support the local community by shopping local, tipping well, and recognizing that you’re a guest in someone’s home.”</p><p>Another thing to keep in mind is the fact that the island is still recovering from the fires that ravaged Lahaina in 2022. “Supporting locally owned businesses and donating to verified organizations supporting Lahaina and surrounding communities makes a tangible difference,” says Newirth. “Move slowly. Be present. Visit respectfully. And if you have the time, take the drive to Hana, it’s truly special, as long as you’re comfortable with the winding road.”</p><h2>Where</h2><h3>Where to Stay</h3><p>The entire island is rural and slow-moving. You’ll get a different experience depending on what area you visit. “The North Shore offers a quieter, more nature-driven pace, while Wailea and Kaanapali lean more resort-oriented,” says Newirth. On the North Shore, you’ll find small towns full of independent shops and cafés linked by winding roads and pastures of horses grazing. Head to the south and west end and you’ll be met with luxury and total getaway vibes. Hana, on the eastern end of the island, is a lush rainforest region perfect for camping and long, quiet hikes. Haleakala National Park is named for the dormant volcano that makes up 75 percent of the island.</p><p>Newirth recommends <a href="https://lumeriamaui.com/maui-retreat-specials/?gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=762474870&amp;gbraid=0AAAAADM8syo16K_LoV96ZJdmddCRAS4kg&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwv-LOBhCdARIsAM5hdKf9nrVOk0JSEqyV6pwE3e2-NA8dJShSiMFa08rR3Iq-bHtJzFWC9ZgaAg0gEALw_wcB" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Lumeria</a>, a 24-room Upcountry guesthouse with farm-to-table dining and programs in horticulture, local culture, and immersive retreats,.

Grab a honey lavender latte at <a href="http://cremamaui.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Crema Maui</a>, then explore the stands overflowing with in-season mangos, lychee, apple bananas, and other local specialties. “We still have the best produce there is,” Simeon says with a grin. Over 40 farms sell their fruit, vegetables, and other goods at the market, many of which are indigenous to Hawaii and can only be found locally.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/b2f59bc7/649895839_18071992748195179_7363019581691543364_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@upcountryfarmersmarket</figcaption></figure><h3>Where to Eat</h3><p>Maui is known for its nutrient-rich soil and all of the incredible produce that stems from it. “The local ingredients are insanely high-quality,” explains Ezzy, echoing Simeon’s assertion. “The fish, of course. But the cows and deer graze on grass that grows in the rich volcanic soil that also nourishes the fruits and veg.”</p><p>The food culture brings together the many diverse communities that make up the island. “I’m happy to see local indigenous cuisine influencing resort hotels, food that speaks to our immigrants who came here to work on the plantations,” Simeon says. “For many years, [food on the island] catered to our visitors’ palette. But now you start to see flavors of my grandparents, you see Filipino flavors, you see Hawaiian and Japanese.”</p><p>Simeon recommends Velzyland Burger Co. in Wailuku. “They do such an awesome job,” says the chef. “They use a hundred percent local beef, and they make their own buns.”</p><p>The shaved ice placed next door is the perfect way to end the meal, he adds. “Grab-and-go shops are huge for me.” He gives Oki’s Seafood Corner a shout. His own restaurants, <a href="https://www.tinroofmaui.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Tin Roof</a> and <a href="https://tiffanysmaui.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Tiffany’s</a>, are local institutions. “Tin Roof is a small take-out spot with a menu designed by one of Maui’s up-and-coming star chefs,” Ezzy says. “Everything’s good. The mochiko chicken or the poke bowl are my go-tos.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/b02beee1/553242535_18009713843792529_2775917555589155948_n.jpeg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@tiffanysmaui</figcaption></figure><p>Ezzy also likes <a href="https://www.mambomaui.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Cafe Mambo</a>. “It was recently bought by a group of young surfers who transformed the menu and modernized the vibe,” he says. “If I’m up in Kula, I go to <a href="https://www.restaurantmarlow.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Marlow</a>. Maybe the best meatballs in the state? Their olive oil honey gelato? Life changing.”</p><p>“<a href="https://www.nukamaui.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Nuka</a> is our go-to for sushi and is just a short drive from home,” Newirth adds. “Paia Fish Market is another staple and never disappoints. For poke, we’ll stop at <a href="https://tobispokeandshaveice.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Tobi’s</a>, where the fish is always fresh and never frozen, or pick some up from the uncle who occasionally sets up at Ho‘okipa. For beach days, <a href="https://manafoodsmaui.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Mana Foods</a> is essential. The hot bar and salad bar are an easy option when we’re on the move.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/1da8df81/620507409_18085372982152461_3016280816680776504_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@restaurant.marlow</figcaption></figure><p>She also suggests <a href="https://www.salepepemaui.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Sale Pepe</a>, an independent Italian spot from a Milanese chef and Brooklyn native who lost their home and restaurant in the Lahaina fire and managed to rebuild in 2023. The restaurant combines locally sourced ingredients with Italian-imported flour, fior di latte, and Bufala mozzarella with homemade pastas and artisanal pizzas.</p><h3>Where to Shop</h3><p>The island is filled with independent shops and bohemian, family-run boutiques. Walk through Makawao, the historic paniolo (Hawaiian cowboy) town at the base of Haleakala, and find local artist galleries, the traditional lei seller Haku Maui, and more than a few concept stores offering tie-dyed silk wraps, Kauai-designed bikinis, and aura-cleansing crystals. The town has a rustic, warmly eccentric charm.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/1203b111/632144019_18387700138149773_6283738561869742557_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@hakumaui</figcaption></figure><p>If you drive down the volcano, you’ll find the sunbathed Paia, next to the iconic Ho’okipa. Wander through the shops lining the ocean. Here, you’ll find <a href="https://www.acacia.co/?srsltid=AfmBOoqj3HmFSqoWrBKMOBaQHEsHbNUUchhBdK0wQ6oSnbFukYte-1Iq" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">ACACIA</a>, Newirth’s flagship. Her swimsuits are perhaps the only ones I’ve worn that comfortably withstand Hawaii’s powerful waves. They’re made for ocean sports but are beautifully refined, a rare combination. Alongside her own line, ACACIA stocks lightweight, natural-fiber dresses, minimal strappy sandals, and independent favorites, like the ’70s-inflected yoga shorts from Australian merino wool activewear brand Nagnata.</p><div class="BCT MJ1"><blockquote data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/DVrpYndAUmb/?img_index=1" data-shortcode="DVrpYndAUmb" class="instagram-media UyF"><div class="yzx"><a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" href="https://instagram.com/https://www.instagram.com/p/DVrpYndAUmb/?img_index=1" title="View on Instagram" class="y9v GmH"><i class="icx g9F"></i></a></div></blockquote></div><p>“Beyond our shop, <a href="https://clhei.com/?srsltid=AfmBOorPgD8Viz0-uMd9cOI5adD9r59tC4cP6kMkGPF87St4zZNj0mCg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">CLHEI</a> and <a href="https://imrieindustries.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Imrie</a>, both in Paia, are longtime favorites run by close friends,” Newirth says. CLHEI is a Maui-local apparel and leather accessories line; Imrie is the perfect place to go for a just-right organic cotton t-shirt.</p><p>Simeon, meanwhile, recommends <a href="https://www.native-intel.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Native Intelligence in Wailuku</a>. “They’re a Native Hawaiian-owned store that sells indigenous-driven art and inspired products,” he says. Think: classic aloha shirts, fresh double Maili leis, and Na lima hulu no’eau, handmade feather leis from the island of Kauai. The shop champions local artisans and works to preserve ancient Polynesian and Hawaiian craftsmanship.</p><p>For Bottega Veneta, Prada, and the like, head to Wailea.</p><h3>Where to Swim and Surf</h3><p>Maui is a legendary windsurfing destination, with year-round trade winds and dynamic conditions that bring in beginners and pros alike. It’s also a beautiful location for surfing, snorkeling, and other water sports. Black, red, and golden-sand beaches with clear turquoise waters are ideal for sunbathing and sunset picnics.</p><p>Ezzy introduces Maui’s most renowned break: “Ho’okipa is the Mecca of windsurfing, and I get out in the waves there every day I can. Even if you’re not a surfer, I recommend going to Ho’okipa in the afternoon to watch the best windsurfers in the world play in the waves. If you want to learn a wind sport (windsurfing, kiting, winging, foiling), Kanaha Beach Park is one of the best beaches in the world for learning. <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g60631-d647142-Reviews-HST_Windsurfing_Kitesurfing_School-Kahului_Maui_Hawaii.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">HST</a> is Maui’s main wind sport school—tell them I sent you and they’ll take extra good care of you.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/783cbacf/gettyimages-548999157.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Kanaha Beach Park | Photo by Reinhard Dirscherl/ullstein bild via Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>For a beautiful, calm beach option, Chef Simeon recommends Kapalua Bay in Kaanapali. “It will always be our family favorite. Our kids learned to swim there,” says Simeon. Next door is Napili Bay, a gorgeous crescent-shaped bay ideal for swimming and snorkeling. Drive over and feel out which one is right for you.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/2c5b645d/gettyimages-1157562212.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Kapalua Bay | Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Newirth prefers the North Shore most days. “Hamoa on the east side is another favorite; it’s stunning, with crystal-clear water and black sand,” she says.</p><h3>Where to Hike</h3><p>“The most life-changing hike on Maui is the hike into Haleakala crater. It feels like you’re on Mars,” says Ezzy. “Reportedly, it is the quietest place on earth. But make sure you bring plenty of water and a sweater (it can be shockingly cold!).  The whole hike from Sliding Sands to the Switchbacks takes upwards of 10 hours, but you can walk into the crater and turn around whenever you want. Just remember that it’s much easier to walk downhill than uphill.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/042c9f75/gettyimages-876285080.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Haleakala National Park | Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>For a breathtaking experience, wake up before sunrise and begin the hike as the day begins. It’s also possible to cycle down the crater—a very special experience particularly as the sun sets.</p><p>Beyond Haleakala, “there are countless beautiful places on the island,” Newirth says. “Twin Falls is a favorite, with trails that lead to a series of waterfalls, and Hosmer Grove offers a quieter hike. Each place gives a different experience of the island.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/32e8aa7d/gettyimages-953152634.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><p>Simeon’s favorite hike is The Cross Heights in Wailuku. “It's awesome,” he says. “It’s a pretty strenuous hike, but it’s short.”</p><h3>Where to Unwind</h3><p>The entire island is a reset. “Nature itself: the ocean, the mountains, quiet moments outdoors. Those are my grounding rituals,” says Newirth.</p><p>For those looking for a top spa treatment, Ezzy recommends <a href="https://lumeriamaui.com/maui-retreat-specials/?gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=762474870&amp;gbraid=0AAAAADM8syo16K_LoV96ZJdmddCRAS4kg&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwv-LOBhCdARIsAM5hdKeismysA3bCvWgKPhIJZqSgQ129kKN3t_RZToTRzESklBzcijjRYjMaAnPoEALw_wcB" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Lumeria</a> or <a href="https://hoomanaspamaui.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Ho’omana Spa</a>.</p><h3>Where to Grab a Drink</h3><p>Maui has a few special beverage offerings. “If you’re out in Wailea, the perfect two spots are right next to each other,” says Simeon. “<a href="https://lahainabrew.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Lahaina Brewing Company </a>is building back up following the fires. Next door is <a href="https://tikehaulounge.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Tikehau Lounge</a>, a fun little rum-driven restaurant by some of the best bartenders and mixologists on island.”</p><p>Newirth likes <a href="https://www.bellesurfcafelounge.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Belle Surf</a>. “Occasionally, we’ll also try for a bar seat at <a href="https://mamasfishhouse.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Mama’s Fish House</a> which, is always worth it when it works out,” she adds. “Wailuku has some hidden gems.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/093e8f3f/589425593_18544561846048612_7453886773421115984_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@mambomaui</figcaption></figure><p>If you’re in Haiku, there is only one bar. “<a href="https://colleensinhaiku.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Colleen’s</a>. A gathering spot for everyone in the neighborhood,” says Ezzy. “Wear your cowboy boots to fit into the country vibe.”</p><h2>When</h2><p>Maui is beautiful year-around. Simeon likes the tail end of summer. “It’s perfect weather. The sun doesn’t go down until almost seven, so it’s nice to be out at the beach till late,” he says.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/c9000fab/gettyimages-114931985.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Newirth recommends winter, when the wind softens. Ezzy prefers fall and spring. “They have the best wind and waves,” he explains. “Generally, in Haiku, the winter is wet and the summer is dry. But the big mountains block the rain from falling on Maui’s southern sides, so Wailea and Kaanapali are dry year-round. If you plan to spend time on the north shore, skip the winter if you don’t like rain.”</p><h2>Why</h2><p>“Maui has a way of recalibrating you,” shares Newirth. “The connection to nature, the sense of community, and the respect for the land are deeply grounding. Growing up here has shaped who I am, personally and creatively.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/560d4d8d/gettyimages-1502654965.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>The island has a centering effect. It’s also not as disconnected as one may imagine. “Maui is a center of the world.,” says Ezzy. “Even though Hawaii is the most isolated land mass—stuck in the middle of the Pacific—everyone comes through here. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself annoyed at Steven Tyler holding up the line at the checkout in Mana Foods, or bodysurfing next to the Obamas. Still, nowhere else I’ve been allows for such a simple, physical life. It’s a collective step outside the flow of culture—for better or worse.”</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[travel]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category><category><![CDATA[life]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Michaela Coel Leaves Her Skirt Suit Artfully Undone]]></title><description><![CDATA[The star's buttoned-up look is far from corporate.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/michaela-coel-buttoned-blue-suit</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/michaela-coel-buttoned-blue-suit</guid><pubDate>Fri, 10 Apr 2026 18:17:25 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Aaron Royce]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/10/753da1d6/new-york-new-york.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/10/753da1d6/new-york-new-york.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>The Hapa Blonde/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Let’s face it: Dressing for a 9-to-5 lifestyle can be a drag—that is, unless you’re Michaela Coel.

Brands are wasting no time breaking out the champagne and hors d’oeuvres, fueled by awards season, new collaborations, or the simple desire to throw a great bash.

This year’s gala honored fashion’s Michèle Lamy, artist McCarthy, and writer Samuel R. Delany, all creatives who no one has ever accused of being prudes. Naturally, Tannahill called in former dominatrix Julia Fox and her BFF, the photographer and model Richie Shazam, to cohost. Dressed as a gala table to open the night, Fox reminded the crowd this was a kink-friendly event. She pulled up comedian Julio Torres onstage to interrogate him about his favorite kink. “A memorable, entertaining night supporting the arts,” he demurred. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/17/756dc828/bfa_53646_7781828.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photography by Marc Patrick / BFA.com</figcaption></figure><p>French singer Yseult, long-known for<a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/yseult-best-cannes-film-festival-fashion-history"> making a statement on the Cannes red carpet</a>, made her United States performance debut with her new single “Freak” accompanied by a BDSM performance by Mistress Nina, Dahlia Damoiselle, and Tristan Allen. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/17/ae1e6bb7/bfa_53646_7781711.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photography by Marc Patrick / BFA.com</figcaption></figure><p>Moses Sumney performed a multisong tribute to Lamy, including his first performance of his song “Rank &amp; File” in years. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/17/64bbbc0a/bfa_53646_7781770.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photography by Marc Patrick / BFA.com</figcaption></figure><p>Performance artist and clown Alex Tatarsky’s tribute to Paul McCarthy was undoubtedly one of the evening’s most delightfully weird moments. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/13/5ff22292/rosie-perez.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Deonte Lee for BFA</figcaption></figure><p>Right as the elevator doors were about to close and take us to the fifth floor of the WSA building for Free Arts NYC’s 26th Annual Gala, none other than Rosie Perez slipped in. There’s no better omen for a good night in the city than starting it with an accidental run-in with one of its cultural icons. Once inside, we were greeted with a glass of red wine and gallery walls full of 70 works on paper by a who’s-who of art-world notables, including Tschabalala Self, KAWS, Will Cotton, and Marilyn Minter. They would all be auctioned off that night through an online portal to benefit the nonprofit. Even New York’s new first lady, Rama Duwaji, donated a sketch.</p><p>Founded in 1997, Free Arts NYC provides kids from underserved communities with both daylong creative workshops for younger artists and more in-depth mentorship and scholarship programs for teenage artists.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/13/54ee3ad2/sasha-gordon-jody-quon.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Matteo Prandoni for BFA</figcaption></figure><p>This year’s edition honored three women from three different generations: artists Katherine Bradford and Sasha Gordon, and Jody Quon, creative director of <em>New York</em> magazine.

The results—“exquisite corpse”-style drawings—were also on display.</p><p>“Free Arts is planting seeds of curiosity that will undeniably make this world more beautiful,” Quon said upon accepting her award. “We are not just investing in children’s art.

Artist Adam Dressner had set up an easel to paint live portraits of guests during both the cocktail hour and after party. At dinner, guests were provided with colored pencils and encouraged to draw on the table by Free Arts founder Liz Hopfan. Paper had been placed over some windows, with crayons provided to encourage guests to leave a doodle. “A sketch is a funny thing,” she told the crowd. “We tend to think of it as lesser, the thing before the thing. But a sketch is where we are all most honestly ourselves. It's a color test, a first instinct, a page that was never meant to be seen. This is where Free Arts lives, too.” </p><h2>Nike</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/2/17/78829481/bfa_53372_7735917.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Jason Sean Weiss and Virisa Yong/BFA</figcaption></figure><p>On February 15, Nike closed out All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles with All-Time High, a star-studded after party at the members-only Bird Streets Club on Sunset Boulevard.

For <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/anne-hathaway-meryl-streep-devil-wears-prada-2-press-tour-mexico-city">Anne Hathaway</a> and Meryl Streep, both versions have been at play throughout <em>The Devil Wears Prada 2</em>’s international press tour—and reached an IYKYK peak at the film’s Shanghai premiere.</p><p>Hathaway made a confectionary appearance in a frothy Susan Fang dress. Originally appearing in the London-based designer’s fall 2026 collection, the piece featured a high neckline with thin spaghetti straps and flared knee-length skirt. Rows of pale pink and lavender ruffles elevated the style with an extravagant texture. For a distinctly modern finish, stylist Erin Walsh paired Hathaway’s dress with round diamond Bulgari earrings and clear PVC Gianvito Rossi slingback pumps, whose toes were capped in shiny metallic gold.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/10/bb792e90/shanghai-china-april-10.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Anne Hathaway at ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’ premiere in Shanghai in April 2026. | VCG/Visual China Group/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Though her premiere outfit nods have ranged from <em>The Devil Wears Prada</em>’s <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/balenciaga-heart-and-body">original 2006 poster</a> to the sequel’s viral <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/the-devil-wears-prada-sequel-explained-cast-plot-spoilers">Valentino Rockstud heels</a>, Hathaway’s Shanghai attire went even further back. In recent weeks, her bangs from the original movie’s post-fashion closet makeover have earned renewed attention—and were on full display against the dress’s minimal neckline. However, fans of the film will recall slingback heels as core to Hathaway’s onscreen protagonist Andrea Sachs. In the film, a black Dolce &amp; Gabbana style was a hasty replacement for her chunky loafers after a withering stare from Streep’s formidable editrix Miranda Priestly, making her transparent pair a subtle throwback reference with a current-day revamp.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/10/81afa5b4/shanghai-china-april-10.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep at ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’ premiere in Shanghai in April 2026. | VCG/Visual China Group/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Hathaway’s look is also the first knee-length dress she’s worn on <em>The Devil Wears Prada 2</em>’s premiere circuit. Back in 2006, the silhouette was a constant on the press tour for the first film, which has also faced revived interest. At the time, Hathaway wore the shape across silky strapless, bubble, and halter dresses—from golden yellow Oscar de la Renta to bow-topped Alexander McQueen. Nineteen years later, her Susan Fang dress subtly nodded to that same fashion era, albeit with updates from sleek, modern details.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/10/79fadc88/oscar-winning-actress-meryl.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway at ‘The Devil Wears Prada’ screening at the 32nd American Film Festival of Deauville in September 2006. | Stephane Cardinale - Corbis/Corbis Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Meanwhile, Meryl Streep’s Shanghai premiere look was even more specific—though with references any fashion fan will instantly catch. Her custom funnel-necked Saint Laurent silk coat featured a deep blue tone, cinched with an attached black belt. Stylist Micaela Erlanger let the hue take center stage, complemented by sheer black tights, satin pumps, and a bejeweled floral brooch—plus large dark sunglasses, a Priestly signature. Lovers of the original film will also recall Streep as Priestly’s iconic onscreen “cerulean blue” speech, which referenced Yves Saint Laurent’s 2002 “cerulean military jacket” designs. Though those exact styles were pure fantasy, the French brand’s fall 2002 collection <em>did</em> include a dark blue velvet coat cinched by a black belt, which aligns with both Streep’s custom outfit and the Saint Laurent fall 2025 coat it was based on. It appears truly great fashion always comes back around—just not always how you’d expect.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/10/63419e96/shanghai-china-april-10.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Meryl Streep at ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’ premiere in Shanghai in April 2026. | VCG/Visual China Group/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Shades of blue—including cerulean—have also been a constant on <em>The Devil Wears Prada 2</em>’s press tour, an ethos Streep continued in Shanghai. Most notably, she previously appeared on <em>The Late Show With Stephen Colbert</em> this spring in a replica of Hathaway’s cerulean blue sweater, which sparked the first film’s aforementioned speech, courtesy of J.Crew’s collection with the sequel. The preppy brand’s one of the latest to launch a <em>Devil</em> collaboration, whose range now includes Diet Coke, Walmart, Target, Tweezerman, and L’Oréal Paris, plus partnerships with Lancôme and Grey Goose Vodka. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/10/41d22097/new-york-april-1.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Meryl Streep and Stephen Colbert on ‘The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.’ | CBS Photo Archive/CBS/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>With two more premieres in New York and London before <em>The Devil Wears Prada 2</em>’s May 1 release, we’re already seated for Streep’s and Hathaway’s upcoming looks—and whichever devilishly clever references they make next.

After even one night of cocktails or wine, the complexion can appear swollen and thirsty. </p><p>According to renowned aesthetician and skincare expert Joomee Song—whose client list includes Lady Gaga, Greta Lee, Emma Stone, and many more—this reaction is not a cosmetic coincidence. Alcohol, she explains, “acts as an irritant in the body, setting off a mild inflammatory response. The under-eye area, with its delicate structure, tends to reveal puffiness first. For others, the cheeks and lower face take on a subtle fullness that feels unfamiliar.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/7/5ee2d1ce/joomee-song-portrait-4x5.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Joomee Song | Courtesy</figcaption></figure><p>This water retention is exacerbated by vasodilation: alcohol relaxes blood vessels, allowing them to widen. The result is that familiar flush, sometimes charming in candlelight, decidedly less so at 9 in the morning. “Skin can appear blotchy, uneven, and quick to redden,” Song notes. “Then comes dehydration, the quiet architect behind much of the drama. As a diuretic, alcohol draws water from the body. With diminished hydration, the skin can look tighter, more textured, less composed. Paradoxically, dehydration may prompt the body to hold onto fluid, which only amplifies morning puffiness. The effect is a kind of optical contradiction—dry and swollen at once. As if we don’t have enough to deal with that drives us to drink in the first place.”</p><p>Prevention of hangover face, Song notes, is not about abstinence so much as strategy. “Hydration must begin early,” she says. “Drinking water before heading out and alternating water with each cocktail keeps internal reserves steadier. Skin dehydration does not discriminate. Even complexions prone to oil can look fatigued when water levels dip.”</p><div><a href="https://go.skimresources.com?id=86205X1637188&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.piquelife.com%2Fproducts%2Fbt-fountain%3Fselling_plan%3D3703570530"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/48febc7b/pique.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Pique BT Fountain Beauty Electrolyte</h3></a></div><p>Choice of drink also matters. “Lower-alcohol options tend to be gentler on the system. A five percent beer is less taxing than a 12 percent wine,” Song adds. “Distilled spirits, often hovering around 40 percent alcohol, demand the most from the body. And sugar, so charming in a coupe glass, compounds inflammation. Those prone to swelling may fare better with simpler compositions: clear spirits with soda or tonic rather than syrup-heavy concoctions.”</p><p>Then there is the cardinal rule of evenings that run long. “Thoroughly cleanse, please,” Song implores. “However minimal the routine, remove makeup and the day’s residue before sleep. Leaving product, oil, and city air on the skin increases irritation and invites congestion. A replenishing night cream or an overnight mask can act as a buffer, supporting the barrier while the body metabolizes its indulgence.”</p><div><a href="https://go.skimresources.com?id=86205X1637188&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.esteelauder.com%2Fproduct%2F689%2F77491%2Fproduct-catalog%2Fskincare%2Frepair-serum%2Fadvanced-night-repair-serum%2Fsynchronized-multi-recovery-complex%3Fgad_source%3D1%26gclid%3DCjwKCAiA5eC9BhAuEiwA3CKwQuRZnD1Hi-AJCENfEsI2zdb3prD1rwfZSE0KVpp5isr4dCcyJJ3yPBoC5bwQAvD_BwE%26gclsrc%3Daw.ds"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2025/2/21/c1560094/estee-lauder2.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex</h3></a></div><p>On recovery mornings, Song focuses on circulation. Encouraging blood flow while tempering inflammation can shift the skin from stagnant to responsive. Electrolytes are her first directive in terms of consumption the morning after. Replenishing minerals supports restoration at a cellular level, benefiting both body and complexion. She favors <a href="https://www.livekaizen.com/pages/product-comparisons?utm_source=google&amp;utm_campaign=22922184672&amp;utm_content=183838500626&amp;utm_term=770761404412&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=22922184672&amp;gbraid=0AAAAA9oZra9YwleCgUSLMZVm7VoIPWBGi&amp;gclid=CjwKCAjw-dfOBhAjEiwAq0RwIxTVAXLeMxNi3tEcNzTauChx8gtTpqdxp7PQMuXqE01OA11PHdHRkRoC32EQAvD_BwE" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Kaizen</a> for its inclusion of taurine, which aids mineral absorption. The aim is to achieve internal equilibrium rather than experincing another spike and crash.</p><p>Topically, she recommends facial massage to assist lymphatic drainage. Using clean hands, sweep outward from the center of the face toward the temples, then down along the sides of the neck. Repeat several times. </p><p>An ice roller or a refrigerated sheet mask also helps constrict blood vessels, softening redness and reducing swelling. </p><p>For a more immersive reset, Song turns to bathing. Warm water encourages circulation, eases muscle tension, reduces fluid retention, and promotes relaxation. At home, fill the tub to chest height, add Epsom salts or magnesium chloride salts, and soak for 20 to 30 minutes. The temperature should be moderate. The goal is gentle perspiration, not further dehydration.</p><div><a href="https://go.skimresources.com?id=86205X1637188&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Foakessentials.com%2Fproducts%2Fdream-bath-soak%3Fview%3Dlegacy"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/e390440b/oak-essentials.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Oak Essentials Dream Bath Soak</h3></a></div><div><a href="https://go.skimresources.com?id=86205X1637188&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fseedtoskin.com%2Fthe-bath-nectar-jasmine-and-rose-bath-oil%2F"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/5e858f11/bath-nectar.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Seed to Skin The Bath Nectar</h3></a></div><p>A night out need not become a weeklong complexion crisis.

Just not the Chanel ones.</p><p>For her first appearance to promote the much-anticipated sequel, alongside Meryl Streep, Hathaway slipped into a full look from Stella McCartney’s fall 2026 runway show. She sparkled in a fully-sequined, bright pink dress complete with long sleeves and a flared mini skirt. Despite the dress’s dazzling, sequin-heavy finish, her shoes proved to be the real scene-stealers.</p><p>Hathaway finished the look with heeled black boots that climbed so high they nearly met the hem of her dress. Where’s Emily Blunt to ask, “Are you wearing the Stella McCartney boots?” when you need her?</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/3/31/c87f832f/mexico-city-mexico-march.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Cristopher Rogel Blanquet/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Streep, for her part, also brought the fashion. She wore a blue (navy, not cerulean) shirt dress from Schiaparelli, complete with gold buttons down the front and a cinched statement belt. Streep styled the floor-length piece with a surreal face bag and tooth-shaped earrings, both from Schiaparelli.</p><p>Hathaway and Streep kicked off their tour earlier in the day when they attended a press conference at the Frida Kahlo Museum in Mexico City. This time, it was Hathaway wearing Daniel Roseberry’s fantastical Schiaparelli creations. She looked sleek in a black fringe dress with gold detailing along the bustier, paired with keyhole Schiaparelli pumps and tinted glasses and jewelry by Bulgari. Streep channeled <em>TDWP</em> red with her outfit. Looking like she had stepped right out of Miranda Priestly’s office, the actor wore a monochromatic Dolce &amp; Gabbana suit, along with cat-eye glasses from Emmanuelle Khanh.</p><p>After their first stop in Mexico, Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep are taking their press tour global ahead of <em>The Devil Wears Prada 2</em>’s theatrical release, with stops planned in Tokyo, Shanghai, London, and New York.

Just ask <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/michaela-coel-hbo-bbc-series-first-day-on-earth">Michaela Coel</a>, who gave the classic neutral pairing a modern makeover in Chanel at the premiere of her new art drama film, <em>The Christophers</em>.</p><p>Coel hit the red carpet in a full look by the brand’s new creative director <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/matthieu-blazy-leaving-bottega-veneta-new-creative-director-chanel">Matthieu Blazy</a>. It consisted of a simple white crewneck top and black midi skirt.

Her round-neck top from Still Here was fully matte, with layered texture added from subtle ribbed trim. Meanwhile, her skirt was covered in glistening, curved beadwork, complete with a tufted raffia hem reminiscent of the three-dimensional flowers within Blazy’s initial Chanel collections.  </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/9/56b6236e/new-york-new-york.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Stylist Nell Kalonji continued Coel’s minimalist color palette with matching accessories. Round, gleaming black post earrings smoothly streamlined her skirt’s dark tone. Meanwhile, the Emmy-winning star slipped on a pair of white ankle-strapped pumps with black diamond-shaped pointed toes, creating a hint of harlequin patterns while showing a <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/matthieu-blazy-first-chanel-collection-launch-interviews">revamped take</a> on Chanel’s signature cap-toed heels. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/9/ea8ccdba/new-york-new-york.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Coel’s Chanel ensemble also echoed the look she wore to <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/chanel-spring-2026-matthieu-blazy-debut-runway-photos">Blazy’s debut show</a> for the label’s celebrated spring 2026 collection. On that occasion, Coel also donned a Chanel outfit consisting of a cropped white crewneck top and a collared black leather jacket and pants, finished by two-toned black pumps. While making use of classic neutral hues and versatile separates, both looks emphasized texture and minimal details to create an elevated feel.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/9/882f8c74/paris-france-october-06.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Dominique Charriau/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p><em>The Christophers</em> marks Coel’s first release of 2026, but it won’t be her last.

For spring? Groundbreaking—but Carey Mulligan’s actually were. The actress stepped out for <em>Beef</em>’s season 2 premiere in an artful new take on the traditional seasonal pattern, courtesy of <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/dries-van-noten-exits-namesake-brand">Dries Van Noten</a>.</p><p>To celebrate the new season of the Netflix dark comedy series, Mulligan arrived to The Egyptian Theatre Hollywood in a tiered fall 2026 ensemble by Van Noten’s creative director, <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/dries-van-noten-julian-klausner-new-designer">Julian Klausner</a>. Her attire began with a strapless top featuring foiled gold blossoms, which was spliced by a lower pale pink panel covered with intricate embroideries of delicate blue flowers and budding branches. The outfit’s greatest twist came from her midi-length skirt, which was covered in a pixelated floral print with an eclectic mix of pink, orange, cream, and tonal green hues.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/9/96b22202/los-angeles-california-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Though fresh takes on florals regularly emerge in spring and summer collections, Mulligan’s attire showed how the classic print can be remixed for a look that’s entirely modern and individual—all while retaining the pattern’s classical elegance. Stylist Danielle Goldberg simply finished her ensemble with square-toed metallic gold sandals and diamond stud earrings, allowing the mixed patterns to be its main focal point.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/9/8ab73d4b/los-angeles-california-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Brianna Bryson/FilmMagic/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Mulligan’s new version of springtime florals also marked a departure from the actor’s typical style.

However, this blooming premiere look proved there’s more than one side to her sartorial streak—and truly great fashion always keeps us guessing. </p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[red carpet]]></category><category><![CDATA[celebrity style]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA['Catwalk: The Art of the Fashion Show' Examines the Enduring Power of the Runway]]></title><description><![CDATA[A new V&amp;A Dundee exhibition traces 125 years of unforgettable fashion presentations by the likes of Balenciaga, Alaïa, Margiela, and more.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/va-dundee-catwalk-the-art-of-the-fashion-show-runway-photos</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/va-dundee-catwalk-the-art-of-the-fashion-show-runway-photos</guid><pubDate>Thu, 09 Apr 2026 16:28:14 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Zoe Whitfield]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/10/0a92cf5e/united-kingdom-circa-1999.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/10/0a92cf5e/united-kingdom-circa-1999.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Guy Marineau/Conde Nast Collection/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>In March 1945, with Paris liberated but Europe still technically at war, French couturier Lucien Lelong organized a new kind of fashion presentation in the city. “Théâtre de la Mode,” staged in a wing of the Louvre, saw 40 designers exhibit their collections on a series of wired dolls each standing at just 27.5 inches tall. Four of these dolls, dressed by Balenciaga, are now on display for the very first time in the U.K. as part of “Catwalk: the Art of the Fashion Show” at V&amp;A Dundee in Scotland, where some 350 objects and around 40 videos tell the story of 125 years of runway shows.</p><p>“The idea actually came from Vitra Design Museum, with whom we’ve collaborated before,” says fashion historian and curator Kirsty Hassard. Together with V&amp;A colleague Svetlana Panova, Hassard worked on the exhibition alongside Jochen Eisenbrand and Katharina Krawczyk from Vitra in Germany. “They’d never done fashion, but we’re both design museums, so we could approach the show from a unique angle.” Indeed, characterized by V&amp;A Dundee director Leonie Bell as a “symphony of different design disciplines,” <em>Catwalk</em> celebrates the wider community of creatives who shape the industry, framed around a sartorial history lesson that calls attention to fashion’s relationship with culture and society.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/9/1ba5bc99/catwalk_-the-art-of.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photography by Grant Anderson for V&amp;A Dundee</figcaption></figure><p>Other miniatures include Loewe’s Show in a Box from the pandemic-era spring 2021 season, and several scale-model Prada sets from the house’s long-term collaborators OMA/AMO. Meanwhile, blown up on a wall are the Colette-blue squares that typically populate Stylenotcom’s Instagram page, indicating how much people’s engagement with fashion shows has shifted. Elsewhere are looks, invites, and props by designers like Christopher Kane, Martin Margiela, and Cristóbal Balenciaga, plus rare ephemera like Elite’s casting list of models booked for Azzedine Alaïa’s 1985 Palladium show in New York.</p><p>First presented at Vitra last October, this second iteration of “Catwalk” has been expanded to honor the museum’s locale, says Hassard. “We wanted to tell that unique story of how Scotland is both a stage for fashion shows but also an inspiration,” says the curator, alluding to Chanel’s Linlithgow Palace show for the Metiers d’Art 2012 collection and two Dior shows held in Scotland in 1955. Spread out across six galleries, the exhibition also spotlights the backstage, with two areas focusing on the BTS work of <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/robert-fairer-photographer-backstage-pass-exhibition-interview">photographer Robert Fairer</a>, hairstylist Sam McKnight, and makeup artist Val Garland. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/9/18db9243/backstage-photography-from-the.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>© Robert Fairer Archive</figcaption></figure><p>Employed throughout the space in varying sizes and formats is footage from runway shows, interview segments, and fashion films—among them Chanel’s monumental supermarket sweep (fall 2014), Hussein Chalayan’s transformative show,<em> Afterwords </em>(fall 2000), and William Klein’s satirical arthouse piece, <em>Who Are You, Polly Maggoo?</em> (1966). “We wanted to present this link between fashion shows and popular culture, because there are shows—like Tom Ford’s Gucci and No. 13 by Alexander McQueen—that transcend fashion history,” says the curator, referencing Ford’s slick fall 1995 collection and the iconic spring 1999 finale, wherein Shalom Harlow got sprayed by a pair of robots.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/9/ce77d07b/backstage-images-from-robert.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>© Robert Fairer Archive</figcaption></figure><p>“The exhibition proves what has massively changed since the beginning of fashion shows and what hasn’t,” says Hassard, leaning into the question of the artistic pertinence of the runway in 2026. “Covid was meant to usher in this big change, but designers still return to the fashion show format because nothing can quite replace it. They are always relevant, a product of the world that they’re created in, affected by social history and changes in technology.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/9/60867bb4/balenciaga-dolls-from-1945.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photography by Grant Anderson for V&amp;A Dundee</figcaption></figure><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/10/a3d51655/catwalk_-the-art-of.jpeg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photograph by Grant Anderson for V&amp;A Dundee</figcaption></figure><p>“Catwalk: the Art of the Fashion Show” <em>runs at V&amp;A Dundee from April 3, 2026, through January 17, 2027.</em></p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category><category><![CDATA[culture]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nicole Kidman Brings Sheer, Second-Skin Schiaparelli to the Red Carpet]]></title><description><![CDATA[The star wore a sultry matching set for the premiere of

That undergrad-informed Ivy League aesthetic has been the East Coast elite’s go-to style for generations now. So when Elle Fanning stepped out today in New York in an outfit that mashed together a fairytale princess skirt with a preppy polo shirt, we could only think one thing: Prep Princess! </p><p>While promoting her upcoming Apple TV limited series, <em>Margo's Got Money Troubles</em>, Fanning was spotted outside ABC Studios in midtown Manhattan in a delightfully mismatched look from August Barron. Her top was a bright take on the classic polo shirt done in a creamy light yellow. The rest of the outfit, however, was pure fantasy. Fanning’s puffy tulle skirt featured two oversize bows along the waistline. A bow in her hair echoed the motif, while shiny powder blue heels matched accordingly. The result looked as if a little girl’s Pretty Pretty Princess dress-up set had accidentally gotten mixed up with the laundry her older brother dropped off during a visit home from Cornell. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/8c213c6a/new-york-ny-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>XNY/Star Max/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>The aesthetic contrast was no mistake. Currently beloved by a roster of It girls across the globe, August Barron (FKA <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/all-in-designers-interview-2025">All-in Studios</a>) are experts at juxtaposing storybook fantasy with very real nostalgia. Fanning’s outfit came from the brand’s recent fall 2026 collection, which was titled “Bedtime Story.” Inspired by Alice in Wonderland and other Disney heroines, the clothes pair princess dressing with elements from nostalgic American youth archetypes like the prep, the prom queen, and the varsity athlete. </p><p>The result echoes Gen Z’s penchant for mismatched styling: taking pieces from various sources, eras, and styles and putting them together. You could easily imagine channeling the vibe of Fanning’s look the next time you step into a thrift store. </p><p>Yet, worn by Fanning out on the streets of New York City on a spring day, the combination of an unexpectedly precious skirt with an everyday unisex top reminded us of a fashion landmark loved by older generations: the tutu skirt and tank top from <em>Sex and the City</em>. Who needs royalty when we have Carrie Bradshaw? </p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[celebrity style]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oprah Chicly Upgrades Double Denim with Chloé’s Revived It Bag]]></title><description><![CDATA[She's the latest star to carry the brand's Paddington satchel.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/oprah-double-denim-chloe-paddington</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/oprah-double-denim-chloe-paddington</guid><pubDate>Wed, 08 Apr 2026 18:34:37 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Aaron Royce]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/8b33fd53/new-york-ny-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/8b33fd53/new-york-ny-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Patricia Schlein/Star Max/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>There’s your average Canadian tuxedo—and then, there’s <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/oprah-winfrey-69th-birthday-jennifer-lopez-kim-kardashian">Oprah Winfrey</a>’s. For her final appearance on <em>The Late Show With Stephen Colbert</em>, the renowned actress, producer, and television host stepped out in a stylish take on double denim with a surprise It girl twist.</p><p>While arriving to Colbert’s studio in New York City, Oprah wore a blue denim <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/chloe-spring-2026-runway-photos">Chloé</a> jacket. The piece featured lightly rounded sleeves, as well as two front pockets accented by gold-toned charms. Oprah chose to wear the casual outerwear with matching flared Chloé jeans, creating a bohemian take on the classic double-denim look. Her ensemble was complete with smooth, dark leather pumps and dangling gold earrings with pearl accents.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/cc721214/new-york-ny-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>BG048/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>However, Oprah’s greatest Canadian tuxedo upgrade came from her handbag of choice: a Chloé Paddington satchel. The star’s warm brown leather version of the top-handled style featured its signature rivet accents, flap silhouette, and thick metal lock hardware. The piece instantly gave her ensemble a bohemian flair, in tandem with the French brand’s free-spirited, feminine aesthetic. It also marked the latest celebrity moment for the Paddington, which first reach it bag status in 2005 when it was introduced under then–creative director Phoebe Philo. The handbag has now returned to prominence after being reissued by creative director <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/chloe-chemena-kamali-interview-2025">Chemena Kamali</a>, with various colors and sizes seen on stars like <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/olivia-rodrigo-sheer-dress-paddington-bag-chloe-show-paris">Olivia Rodrigo</a>, <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/w-chloe-dinner-party-photos-los-angeles">Addison Rae</a>, Kendall Jenner, Katie Holmes, Olivia Wilde, and Daisy Edgar-Jones.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/168c69d5/new-york-new-york.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Raymond Hall/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>The moment continued Winfrey’s recent fashion hot streak, which has seen the multi-hyphenate truly enter her “fashion girl” era. After virally posing for Lapointe’s spring 2025 campaign, she made the rounds at Chanel, Stella McCartney, Zimmermann, and Chloé’s fall 2026 shows at <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/paris-fashion-week-fall-2026-best-runway-looks">Paris Fashion Week</a> this winter—notably her first <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/oprah-winfrey-fashion-week-appearances">PFW outing in 20 years</a>. In fact, Oprah also carried a cream leather Paddington bag at the brand’s <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/chloe-fall-2026-paris-fashion-week-runway-photos">craft-inspired runway show</a>, making her latest appearance a reunion with the beloved accessory.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/eaa8b1fb/oprah-winfrey-attends-the.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>LAURENT HOU/AFP/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/741f9122/paris-france-march-09.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Neil Mockford/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Though Oprah’s hardly the last celebrity to step out in double denim, her pairing of the matching set and Chloé’s It bag prove that staple and statement styles can always be made new again.

The actor and author hit the red carpet for the Los Angeles event in statement-making fashion, with a sprinkling of color and cultural trends for good measure.</p><p>During the awards, Fox stepped out in a pink T-shirt dress by London-based designer Ashley Williams, featuring a silky trompe l’oeil nightgown layer. The ruffled off-kilter style featured a gathered waistline and an ankle-length skirt, creating the effect that Fox’s nightgown was partially hanging in midair from her short-sleeve bodice. Coincidentally, it marked the star’s latest intimates-influenced outfit—she wore silky purple lingerie <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/julia-fox-purple-bra-pink-underwear-marc-jacobs-show-new-york">to Marc Jacobs’s show</a> back in February. While aligning with the current Gen Z–loved color trend of ’60s “Pepto-Bismol” pink, the dress’s sleepwear elements also seemed to nod to the viral “sleepmaxxing” wellness movement that focuses on enhancing sleep quality with elaborate routines. Consider this a formal petition to add red carpet outings to that list.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/191fed59/los-angeles-ca-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Rachpoot/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>To play on her look’s old-school nightgown accent and retro hues, Fox layered the dress with matching pink stockings and bright green pointed-toe pumps. The clashing color combination was both nostalgic and punchy. She rounded it out with a cream shoulder bag covered in a dusky floral pattern. With prints that would look just as fitting on a vintage couch, the accessory provided a perfectly quirky finish to Fox’s monochrome moment.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/28ea73e1/los-angeles-california-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Charley Gallay/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>It’s fitting that eye-catching fashion was central to Fox’s ensemble, as it was to the awards, which provide emerging fashion designers with professional mentorship. This year’s winning names included LII’s Zane Li, Andrea Marron, Josefina Baillères, Amaramara’s Marcelle Barbosa, and An Only Child’s Maxwell Osborne and Kristy Chen. Pisces Rising’s Deborah Won was notably given the Type One Ventures &amp; Lanvin Group Future Form award for transforming a technical drawing prompt into an original design. <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/tory-burch-fall-2026-runway-photos">Tory Burch</a> and <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/michele-lamy-no-sesso-exhibit-los-angeles">Michèle Lamy</a> were also honored with respective awards for their noteworthy contributions and legacy in the fashion industry.</p><p>Of course, Fox is no stranger to <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/julia-fox-best-red-carpet-moments">making statements</a> on and off the red carpet. This latest outing proves her prowess at giving even the most surprising trends a moment in the spotlight—and we can’t wait to see her do it again.</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[red carpet]]></category><category><![CDATA[celebrity style]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Meryl Streep's Red Prada Suit Is a Sign Fashion Is Fully Behind 'The Devil Wears Prada 2']]></title><description><![CDATA[Designer Miuccia Prada speaks through clothes—and for Meryl Streep's latest ‘The Devil Wears Prada 2’ press tour look, her message is loud and clear.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/meryl-streep-devil-wears-prada-2-red-suit-miuccia-reaction</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/meryl-streep-devil-wears-prada-2-red-suit-miuccia-reaction</guid><pubDate>Wed, 08 Apr 2026 16:23:57 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kyle Munzenrieder]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/b13680e8/seoul-south-korea-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/b13680e8/seoul-south-korea-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Han Myung-Gu/WireImage/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Sometimes you don’t have to think too hard about method dressing. If you’re starring in a franchise called <em>The Devil Wears Prada</em>, why not just wear Prada? (All the better if it’s in a devilish shade of red.) That’s exactly what Meryl Streep did last night, at the South Korea premiere of<em> The Devil Wears Prada 2</em> in Seoul. Of course, the woman who plays the fierce editrix Miranda Priestly shouldn’t be wearing any old Prada. Her suit was custom, of course. The most interesting part of this red carpet storyline may be that Prada decided to take part at all. </p><p>A power suit fit for anyone hoping to lead an editorial meeting, Streep’s double-breasted red suit jacket featured an exaggerated collar that sat slightly above her shoulders. Her wide-leg, slightly flared pants matched perfectly, and an unexpected brown belt synched with the silhouette. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/32a44457/seoul-south-korea-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Han Myung-Gu/WireImage/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Although Streep’s suit was custom-made, it appears to takes its cues from deep within the Prada archives. Supermodel Lara Stone stomped down Prada’s fall 2009 runway in a similar demon-red outfit (but hers was a skirt suit). Fall 2009 was a particularly austere season for Prada, with lots of sturdy suits made of stiff fabrics. Pops of red were just about the only color shown on the runway amid a collection otherwise dominated by blacks and various shades of brown. Backstage, designer Miuccia Prada<a href="https://www.vogue.com/fashion-shows/fall-2009-ready-to-wear/prada" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"> told Style.com</a> at the time that it was all “about a need for feminine empowerment.” </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/39994721/milan-italy-march-01.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Chris Moore/Catwalking/Catwalking/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Although <em>The Devil Wears Prada</em> is largely understood to be a stylized fictionalization of <em>Vogue</em> magazine and its global editorial director Anna Wintour, the films do bear another famed moniker: Miuccia’s surname. Mrs. Prada has said very little about that fact over the years. She told an Italian newspaper<a href="https://www.hellomagazine.com/fashion/news/2015042953963/miuccia-prada-talks-devil-wears-prada/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"> back in 2015</a> that she was originally afraid because she thought the original novel was “awful,” but she ultimately concluded that, “the film, on the other hand, was fun.” </p><p>Wintour has shed a little more light on Miuccia’s reaction. “Many years ago, the Prada name and I were thrown together in the title of a book and then a movie,” Wintour<a href="https://www.thecut.com/2016/11/anna-wintour-joked-at-the-glamour-women-of-the-year-awards.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"> told the audience</a> at <em>Glamour</em>’s Women of the Year Awards in 2016. “For a while, it seemed that that association was the only flattering thing about the enterprise, and Miuccia and I never discussed it. Finally, at one of our lunches, she leaned across the table and she said, ‘Anna, that book, it’s good for both of us.’ And the subject has never come up again.”</p><p>While the fashion world famously held the original film at a distance, everyone, including Wintour and Prada, are showing their support this time around. The <em>Vogue</em> editor is even featured<a href="https://www.vogue.com/article/meryl-streep-anna-wintour-may-cover-2026-interview" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"> on the cover </a>of the most recent issue of her magazine with Streep. Both are wearing Prada. As Miuccia would say, it’s all just “fun.” </p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[celebrity style]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Zendaya's Moody Dress Kept Up a 'Euphoria' Premiere Tradition]]></title><description><![CDATA[The actress wore a sleek chocolate-brown dress for the show's final premiere.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/zendaya-euphoria-season-three-premiere-dress</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/zendaya-euphoria-season-three-premiere-dress</guid><pubDate>Wed, 08 Apr 2026 15:37:49 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Aaron Royce]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/73c23da8/hollywood-california-april-07.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/73c23da8/hollywood-california-april-07.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>After seven years, HBO’s <em><a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/euphoria-season-3-release-date-cast-plot-trailer">Euphoria</a> </em>is ending—and Zendaya bid farewell to the show in style. For the drama’s third season premiere, the actress stepped out in an elegant ensemble that nodded to past red carpet looks while looking toward the future.</p><p>For the occasion at the TCL Chinese Theatre, stylist <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/law-roach-school-of-style-interview">Law Roach</a> dressed Zendaya in a slinky chocolate-brown satin gown from Ashi Studio. Though seemingly simple, it hails from the house’s most recent haute couture collection. It featured a high halter neckline with a column silhouette, nodding to both ’90s dressing and classic red carpet glamour—two references that are frequently on the duo’s moodboards. However, a smoothly draped train and sultry open back gave the style a sharp finish that was undeniably modern and sleek.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/887ef73a/hollywood-california-april-07.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Naturally, her look was finished with a matching pair of pointed-toe pumps—a longtime staple of Zendaya’s red carpet looks—in brown satin, also from Ashi Studio. Glittering white gold and diamond hoop earrings and a matching ring from Chopard’s L’Heure du Diamant collection finished the star’s ensemble with a dash of eye-catching sparkle.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/d3c7ec26/hollywood-california-april-07.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Zendaya’s latest look notably wraps her evolution of neutral <em>Euphoria</em> premiere looks over the years. In 2019, she attended the show’s debut red carpet in an angelic, sheer-trimmed white Nina Ricci minidress and matching Le Silla pumps. Meanwhile, its season 2 premiere flexed her affinity for archival fashion with a strapless black-and-white-striped Valentino gown from 1992. Her season 3 look’s darker tones similarly showcase her love of neutral shades while exhibiting a sultrier, serious aesthetic. This could also align with the spiraling storyline of the show’s protagonist, teenage drug addict Rue, which earned the actress two Emmy awards in 2020 and 2022—though we’ll have to tune in to find out.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/bd0b0daa/los-angeles-california-june.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Frazer Harrison/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/2e328211/los-angeles-california-january.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic, Inc/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>The moment also starkly ends Zendaya’s <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/zendaya-the-drama-press-fashion-photos">recent press tour</a> for A24’s wedding-focused film <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/zendaya-the-drama-outfits-wedding-dress-shop"><em>The Drama</em></a>, which found her delivering looks inspired by bridal elements of something old, new, borrowed, and blue.

Consider the sparkling dress Hunter Schafer wore last night to <em>Euphoria</em>’s season 3 premiere. It amped animal print all the way up, leaving the impression that one of Siegfried and Roy’s tigers had given up the magic show to become a Las Vegas showgirl instead. </p><p>Part of Roberto Cavalli’s spring 2026 collection, the dress featured a motif of silver sequined tiger stripes against a gold background. The sequins gradually disperse down the dress, revealing a sheer skirt beneath. For an extra hint of danger, the gown also had sheer paneling in the back. A dress like that doesn’t need much jewelry, so Schafer kept her accessories minimal. If she was wearing any earrings at all, they were covered by her casual beach waves. Her simple brown stiletto pumps were really the only accessorizing needed. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/8/b0c35015/hollywood-california-april-07.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Monica Schipper/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>The house of Cavalli is known for taking wild cat prints to fashion extremes, but the notion is quite on trend at the moment. The fashion dictate has been to wear animal prints in a way that is anything but basic. The current prints aren’t faithful reproductions of actual wildlife—rather, the look is pushed to fantastical extremes, like they’re the skin of some lab experiment on the island of Dr. Moreau. Earlier this year, Kendall Jenner was spotted<a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/kendall-jenner-beaded-cheetah-dress-new-york"> in a beaded tiger-stripe Chanel dress </a>that would have stopped traffic even if it wasn’t done in traffic-cone orange. A few weeks later, Anya Taylor-Joy took to the New York City streets in a <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/anya-taylor-joy-leopard-skirt-black-top-new-york">leopard-print skirt</a> with spots that gradually mutated into furry fringe.

He points to wellness rituals such as the Temazcal ceremony, which Paraíso de la Bonita guests may experience, as a prime example. “Moments like these help visitors understand that the Riviera Maya is not just about beautiful beaches, but about a culture that continues to shape daily life in the region.”</p><p>On a similar note, Eslava strongly encourages visitors to take time to really learn about the community they’re joining, even if their stay is only a few short days. “Many guests are surprised by how warm and welcoming the people are,” he says. “Even small gestures, such as learning a few Spanish phrases or asking about local traditions, can create meaningful connections.”</p><h2>Where</h2><h3>Where to Stay</h3><p>“The Riviera Maya stretches across several areas, each with its own character,” says Eslava, who highlights a few key spots to consider, all with drastically different vibes: nightlife-filled Cancún, bohemian Tulum, and Puerto Morelos, known for its scenic and secluded charm. “This is where Paraíso de la Bonita is located,” he says of the intimate adults-only hotel he oversees. He also points to the quiet, coastal village setting; luxurious service; and a focus on wellness as major draws. “Many travelers who stay with us find they have everything they need within the resort itself—the experience is designed so guests can relax and immerse themselves in the destination without venturing far.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/8/a9d50786/639033033146537228.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Paraíso de la Bonita</figcaption></figure><p>Kleinman also notes the region’s diverse hospitality options, noting each part of the coastline “offers a different rhythm.” She personally loves the serene and restorative feel of the Costa Mujeres area, and recommends<a href="https://shawellness.com/en/?utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_campaign=SHA_%7C_Evergreen_%7C_Google%2C_Brand_US%2C_AXSS_Search_%7C_SHAAO100&amp;utm_term=sha%20wellness%20clinic%20mexico&amp;adgroup_name=Locations_%7C_KW&amp;keyword=sha%20wellness%20clinic%20mexico&amp;utm_content=Locations_%7C_KW&amp;hsa_acc=7325806744&amp;hsa_cam=21935551625&amp;hsa_grp=168137411742&amp;hsa_ad=722476619263&amp;hsa_src=g&amp;hsa_tgt=kwd-382409417987&amp;hsa_kw=sha%20wellness%20clinic%20mexico&amp;hsa_mt=e&amp;hsa_net=adwords&amp;hsa_ver=3&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=21935551625&amp;gbraid=0AAAAAqa4AayyNrDNu2nzwjrq0PhicjXGj&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwsdnNBhC4ARIsAA_3hei-jzPz8nsB2EGGbpwvnubJEDOVRrzAHRzEBEILVvF9eXjBrypMz8gaAopnEALw_wcB" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"> SHA Wellness Clinic Mexico</a> to all who plan to visit. “It is one of my favorite retreats, a beachfront sanctuary devoted to longevity and holistic well-being,” she says. “The programs are transformative, the spa rituals are deeply grounding, and the cuisine is guided by Michelin-level precision.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/30/ff2bdbb4/651193654_18570562504049082_1952338254222756225_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@shawellness_mexico</figcaption></figure><p>Further south, <a href="https://auberge.com/etereo/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Etereo by Auberge Resorts Collection</a> is also a go-to for Kleinman when she’s seeking a quiet retreat. “It’s incredibly peaceful and very connected to nature,” she says. “One of the things I loved most is that they have a local shaman who leads sunset ceremonies, which creates a special atmosphere in the evenings.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/895a6335/641759750_18072909437530911_7706707303152564447_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@etereoauberge</figcaption></figure><p>And if you’re heading to Tulum, known for its free-spirited, flower-child mood, Orozco has a few suggestions: <a href="https://maxanab.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Hotel Maxanab</a>, a tranquil boutique getaway; or<a href="https://www.hotelpanamera.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"> Hotel Panamera</a>, which he loves for its “delicious food, a vibrant atmosphere, and striking design.” Another option worth considering? “Get a house in the Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve,” he says. “It feels completely private, almost like being on a deserted island.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/e462a813/580975235_18367236322085128_3322708993336747750_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@maxanab_tulum</figcaption></figure><h3>Where to Start the Day</h3><p>According to Gutiérrez, breakfast is one of the best ways to relish ingredients native to the Riviera Maya. “I always recommend starting with tropical fruit and something traditional, like chilaquiles or eggs with freshly made tortillas,” he says. “At Paraíso de la Bonita, breakfast at the restaurant, K’uhul, often includes regional touches such as house-made salsas and pastries alongside classic Mexican dishes.”</p><p>Some of Orozco’s favorite morning meals, meanwhile, can be found in Tulum. “For breakfast, I recommend the croissant at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/nimeno.bakery/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Nimeño</a>, the egg BLT at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rossinatulum/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Rossina</a>, and the egg burrito at<a href="https://www.instagram.com/panzatulum/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"> Panza</a>,” he says. “Matcha Mama is also wonderful for açai bowls.” </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/4ced3044/642094401_18032254934783799_6633268708182934337_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@nimeno.bakery</figcaption></figure><h3>Where to Eat</h3><p>“From a culinary perspective, the Riviera Maya is an extraordinary place because of the ingredients and traditions that come together here,” says Gutiérrez, who counts the incredible Caribbean seafood, tropical fruits, chiles, and herbs—all mixed together with ancient Mayan techniques—as integral players in the local cuisine. He aims to bring this unique approach to the dishes at the various restaurants of Paraiso de la Bonita, where his goal is to “highlight the richness of Mexican ingredients through traditional dishes at K’uhul or the Latin American cuisine served at Joya.”</p><p>Rosas’s favorite meal on the hotel’s property is the Qin Qin, an Asian-Caribbean fusion spot located within the Reserve building he helped design. Still, he continues, there are some dishes that’ll be amazing wherever you eat in the Riviera Maya. “Seafood is the highlight, and simple preparations like ceviche or grilled fish tacos really capture the flavors of the region,” he says. “Wherever you go, I always recommend trying Tikin Xic fish, a traditional Yucatan preparation marinated with achiote and citrus that represents the culinary identity of the area.”</p><p>You’ll certainly find plenty of local specialties at Kleinman’s favorite spots, which include <a href="https://auberge.com/etereo/dine/itzam/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">ITZAM at Etereo</a>, Auberge Resorts Collection, which serves modern Mexican cuisine; and<strong> </strong><a href="https://www.instagram.com/lumbrerest/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Lumbre</a>, an intimate hot spot specializing in wood-fire grilling. “It’s ideal for a long, atmospheric evening,” she says. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/7de65724/ete-itzam2-feature-big.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Etéreo by Auberge Resorts Collection</figcaption></figure><p>And if you just want amazing street food? “Don’t miss the tostadas at<a href="https://www.instagram.com/elcompa.tulum/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"> El Compa</a>, the green ceviche at the Maxanab Hotel, the rib-eye tacos at <a href="https://www.taqueriala86.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Taquería 86</a>, or traditional cochinita and lechón at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/taqueriahonorio/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Taqueria Honorio</a>,” says Orozco of his favorite Tulum-based eateries. For heartier meals, he points to the bone marrow at <a href="https://arcatulum.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Arca</a>, “the entire menu” at <a href="https://www.hartwoodtulum.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Hartwood</a>, and the skirt steak at<a href="https://casabanana.net" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"> Casa Banana</a>.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/9a479ed7/658703585_17941074444161002_538390139375562696_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@elcompa.tulum</figcaption></figure><h3>Where to Drink</h3><p>The best bars of the Riviera Maya vastly vary in atmosphere and mood. “For something more energetic, try Cancún. It’s developed a lively cocktail scene, particularly around the Avenida Nader [district,] where smaller bars and restaurants attract a creative crowd and reflect the city’s evolving nightlife culture,” says Rosas. Kleinman adds you’re sure to find this sort of celebratory mood at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lamadalena_mx/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Madelena</a>, a bustling and brightly decorated option in the area.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/35e98a0e/612099517_18417578068186376_4545999357809093234_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@lamadalena_mx</figcaption></figure><p>Orozco loves the rooftop Sunset Bar at Tulum-based Panamera Hotel for a relaxed drink with a view—and the nearby <a href="https://nomadetulum.com/rooms?utm_source=triptease_attract&amp;utm_medium=paid_search&amp;utm_campaign=google_search&amp;tt_channel=paidsearch&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=19596755193&amp;gbraid=0AAAAABfgVgVVli2n--nuNuigfv1Ew1mII&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwmunNBhDbARIsAOndKpk7YZPs_Aj0D7A3xV0mfSpGTg9adpUQfcTCwKSRpaeC00Jsqy-K1UcaApAyEALw_wcB" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Nômade Hotel bar</a> for a livelier night out. “It offers a beautiful atmosphere and great music,” he says of his latter pick. </p><h3>Where to Shop</h3><p>The majority of your shopping options will be found within the key commercial hubs along the coastline. To the north, Cancún has a large selection of stores specializing in local crafts. “Places like <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mercado28oficial/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Mercado 28</a> in downtown are great for discovering handmade ceramics, embroidered textiles, and traditional Mexican crafts,” says Gutiérrez. He also points out that something edible always makes for a good buy. “Mexican chocolate, vanilla, or small-batch hot sauces are wonderful souvenirs because they capture the flavors of the country,” he says. “That allows you to recreate a little of the experience once you’re back home.”</p><p>If you’re near Playa del Carmen, Eslava advises a stop on Fifth Avenue to explore shops and galleries. “Visitors will find everything from artisan jewelry to handmade textiles,” he says. “For souvenirs, I always recommend items created by local artisans: hand-woven pieces, ceramics, and traditional embroidery.”</p><p>Further south, in Tulum, you’ll discover an incredible selection of fashion and home goods boutiques. A few of Orozco’s top picks are<a href="https://www.claudetulum.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"> Claude</a> (for clothing), <a href="https://ossabags.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Ossa Tulum</a> (leather bags), and <a href="https://inthemiddletulum.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoouGz1N-4kDXgLZYbIUAmNTb9SHypXm3wP7o2CXptpnWqsWMYcw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">In The Middle</a> (linen pieces). His interior decor studio <a href="https://www.instagram.com/danielorozcoestudio/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Daniel Orozco Estudio</a> is also worth a stop. Kleinman, a frequent customer, says he carries some “extraordinary rattan peacock chairs.” She’s also a fan of neighboring boutique <a href="https://latroupetulum.com/en-us" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">La Troupe</a>, which showcases breezy, handmade ready-to-wear and decor.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/6d6703f3/641592599_18569318677044121_5911902404673921272_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@latroupetulum</figcaption></figure><h3>Where to Enjoy the Outdoors</h3><p>The Riviera Maya is known for its treasure trove of cenotes, which are natural freshwater pools found within collapsed limestone bedrock. “They are unique to the region and offer incredible opportunities for swimming and snorkeling,” says Eslava. Kleinman raves about these natural wonders as well, calling them “visible openings to this hidden world.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/e764127e/gettyimages-638274146.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>If you’re looking for an ocean experience, though, Gutiérrez insists you can’t go wrong with snorkeling along the Mesoamerican Reef. “It’s the second-largest coral reef system in the world,” he says. “Seeing the marine life that exists just off the coast really reminds you how closely the region’s culture and cuisine are tied to the sea.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/b8fd230a/gettyimages-137724067.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Getty Images</figcaption></figure><h3>Where to Soak Up Culture</h3><p>History buffs will appreciate the Riviera Maya’s close ties to Mayan heritage, and delight in the array of archaeological ruins to explore. “Visiting sites in Tulum or Cobá is always worthwhile,” says Eslava. “They offer a fascinating glimpse into the ancient Maya civilization and the region’s heritage.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/3d55e1a3/gettyimages-171310923.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Wherever you happen to stay, Rosas says you won’t regret taking the time to leave your hotel and immerse yourself in what different small towns along the coastline have to offer. “The area has developed a strong creative community of designers, artisans, and artists, and discovering those studios or galleries often gives visitors a deeper understanding of the culture that shapes this destination,” he says. </p><p>In particular, Kleinman recommends <a href="https://www.sferik.art" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">SFER IK at AZULIK</a>, an immersive gallery experience that blends contemporary art, architecture, and nature. “The space itself feels almost otherworldly, and the exhibitions are thoughtfully curated, often highlighting artists who explore themes of sustainability, identity, and connection to the natural world,” she says. “It’s definitely worth a visit if you’re looking for something culturally enriching beyond the beach.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/1b968257/542704948_18384317299192274_3638695575683248236_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@sferik.art</figcaption></figure><h2>When</h2><p>“The Riviera Maya is truly a year-round destination,” says Eslava. However, he explains, the winter is always very popular because that’s when people from colder climates tend to visit. It’s also Orozco’s preferred time of year to be in town. “From November to March, the sea is particularly beautiful, the weather is ideal, rainfall is minimal, and temperatures are more comfortable,” he says. “And there are fewer mosquitoes.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/18157c0e/gettyimages-1325920078.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>But Eslava personally enjoys late spring and early fall. “The pace of the destination is often a little calmer, and the landscape feels incredibly lush and vibrant after the seasonal rains. It can be a wonderful time to experience the Riviera Maya in a more relaxed way.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/6766dda4/gettyimages-1412433874.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Getty Images</figcaption></figure><h2>Why</h2><p>Scenic views and sunny conditions might draw you to the Riviera Maya. But a one-of-a-kind combination of natural wonders and ancient culture will make you fall in love with this stunning stretch of Mexico. “It is the kind of destination where a day might begin with a sunrise walk on the beach, and end by exploring a cenote or enjoying regional cuisine inspired by centuries of history,” says Eslava.</p><p>Orozco agrees with this sentiment, and adds that the area has an unmatchable air of tranquility and peace. “What makes this place unique is its atmosphere,” he says. “It’s the calm, the ocean breeze, the warmth of the people, and the constant presence of the sea.”</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[travel]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category><category><![CDATA[life]]></category><category><![CDATA[Lifestyle]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[In Uncertain Times, Fashion Reaches For Its Armor]]></title><description><![CDATA[From sculpted breastplates to chain mail dresses, designers look to the Middle Ages for a new kind of modern defense.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/medieval-core-trend-spring-2026</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/medieval-core-trend-spring-2026</guid><pubDate>Wed, 08 Apr 2026 12:00:24 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Avery Trufelman]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/7/c8ce5fc5/0226havingamomentmedievalcoredigital.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/7/c8ce5fc5/0226havingamomentmedievalcoredigital.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From shimmering chain mail to sculpted chest plates, battle-ready looks conquered the spring runways of (from left) Conner Ives, Chopova Lowena, Burberry, McQueen, Yuhan Wang, Colleen Allen, Stefan Cooke, and Givenchy. Center: A vintage illustration modeled after Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres’s 1854 painting of Joan of Arc.</figcaption></figure><p>For her first-ever performance at the MTV Video Music Awards, in 2024, Chappell Roan dressed as a knight—fully armored, complete with a crossbow. Her look was reminiscent of a famous 1997 photograph of Fiona Apple for <i>Life</i> magazine, in which the singer stands in a crowded subway car, fitted in a knight’s plate of armor. Nearly two decades before Apple, Kate Bush posed like a medieval soldier for the music magazine <i>Melody Maker. </i>These artists announced their arrivals like latter-day Joans of Arc: not to be easily dismissed, not to be trifled with.</p><p>If you look at the spring 2026 runway shows, it seems that women from all walks of life are following those anti-ingenues’ lead. Burberry featured a shirt made of small diamond-shaped plates that looked like lamellar armor. Conner Ives created a gown with a druidesque hood. McQueen and Stefan Cooke showed chain mail dresses, while Chopova Lowena used the material to accent a velvet leg-of-mutton gown. Yuhan Wang went all in, presenting a chest plate.</p><p>The medieval aesthetic has decidedly European roots. The Middle Ages—which lasted roughly 1,000 years, from the fall of the Roman Empire to the start of the Renaissance—is considered to be the birth of fashion by many historians. Before then, European  clothing consisted mostly of gender-neutral, figure-agnostic coverings. Through the Silk Road, new ways of dressing arrived in Europe. Tailoring became a necessity for men because of the newly widespread use of horses and full-body armor. As for women, dresses became more formfitting, with laces along the waist to create an hourglass silhouette. Simultaneously, an emerging class of merchants sought to get away from the tunics that peasants wore. The period brought “a new exaltation of individuality,” according to the French philosopher and sociologist Gilles Lipovetsky. “To be unique, to attract attention by displaying signs of difference—these became legitimate aspirations.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/7/d7c4d7bb/wm202602have05-copy.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>A vintage illustration modeled after Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres’s 1854 painting of Joan of Arc.</figcaption></figure><p></p><p>In our own era, designers have often evoked medieval attire, from Paco Rabanne, who made dresses by linking aluminum discs and plates in the 1960s, to Vivienne Westwood, whose now famous 1989 Armor Ring referenced a knight’s glove. “It’s easy to wear, it’s comfortable, it fits on a lot of body shapes,” says Heather Mbaye, chair of the Medieval Dress and Textile Society, of the medieval silhouette. Plus, the styles are open to interpretation. “There’s a reason it was called the Dark Ages,” jokes costume researcher Leighton Bowers. “There’s not a ton of information about clothes, and a lot of what you find references the same sources.”</p><p>Case in point: Chain mail, often featured in eveningwear nowadays, was worn primarily for fighting, and the vast majority of women weren’t allowed to go into battle. The grand exception was, of course,  Joan of Arc. But even she didn’t wear <i>maille </i>while leading the French army to victory during the Hundred Years’ War. King Charles VII gave her a suit of white armor, without any ornamentation. Some historians say that Joan didn’t even wear a helmet, so that people could see the face of the teenage girl who had been guided by angels to fight for France.</p><p>Is this new obsession with the Middle Ages a longing for a simpler era? Maybe and probably. At the very least, it’s clear that many of us need some form of armor to deal with modern life.</p><p><em>Runway, From left: Courtesy of Conner Ives; Courtesy of Chopova Lowena; Courtesy of Burberry; Courtesy of McQueen; Courtesy of Yuhan Wang; Courtesy of Colleen Allen; Courtesy of Stefan Cooke; Courtesy of Givenchy.

In real life, though, they can’t stop giggling.</p><p>They’re currently promoting the new show, which is also an adaptation of a dystopian Margaret Atwood novel (<em>The Handmaid’s Tale</em> was published in 1985, with <em>The Testaments</em> arriving in 2019). Like its predecessor, <em>The Testaments </em>takes place in Gilead, a highly religious, oppressive regime where women are unable to read or write and are seen only as ornaments and reproductive incubators. Released in 2017 at the beginning of Trump’s first term, <em>The Handmaid’s Tale</em> quickly became a cultural juggernaut and earned its star, Elisabeth Moss, an Emmy and a Golden Globe.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/7/521b8958/the-testaments-first-look.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Disney/Disney General Entertainment Content/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Infiniti and Halliday are acutely aware of the pressure they face as co-leads of this new project. They’re covering heavy topics—violence, sexual assault, religious fanaticism—while simultaneously continuing a beloved franchise. “Neither one of us wanted to be the cog in the machine that screws it up,” says 21-year-old Halliday. It’s enough to intimidate even the most seasoned pro, but Infiniti and Halliday are both novices in this industry. Though Infiniti, 25, is <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/chase-infiniti-cover-interview-one-battle-after-another">fresh off awards season</a> thanks to her breakout role as Willa in Paul Thomas Anderson’s Oscar-winning film <em>One Battle After Another</em>, this is just her third credit—and her first time leading a project. The Scottish-born Halliday, meanwhile, has only acted in indie British projects prior to <em>The Testaments</em>.</p><p>That’s why it’s such a blessing that they have each other. During our Zoom interview, their camaraderie is contagious. They playfully push and tease each other or show solidarity with a Gen Z two-finger clap. You can’t help but laugh along.</p><p>The rapport is a long way off from what we see on screen, at least at the beginning of the series. In <em>The Testaments</em>,<em> </em>we follow Infiniti and Halliday as attendees of an elite preparatory school run by <em>The Handmaid’s Tale </em>alum Aunt Lydia (Ann Dowd). Infiniti plays Agnes, a young woman raised in Gilead who knows nothing beyond its strict world. She prepares to embark on a new chapter of life and get married when she meets Halliday’s Daisy. Born in Toronto, Daisy has immigrated to Gilead as a Pearl Girl, a kind of born-again refugee. The two are begrudgingly paired together by the school’s whip-wielding overseers, the Aunts, allowing each one to learn from the other’s vastly different experiences.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/7/fdbea0f9/chase-infiniti-lucy-halliday.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Michael Buckner/Variety/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>In many ways, <em>The Testaments </em>feels like an extremist <em>Gossip Girl</em>—though parties and hook-ups are swapped for afternoon teas and arranged marriages. The scenes in the school halls prove that no matter the circumstances, teenagers will be teenagers. Cliques will form, cutting remarks will fly, and crushes will bloom. There’s a beauty to the idea that oppression can’t suppress natural, youthful instincts.</p><p>Before landing their roles, both Infiniti and Halliday were familiar with the material (that is, they weren’t living under a rock during <em>The Handmaid’s Tale</em>’s<em> </em>run). “I remember it blowing up, not just at my high school, but all over the world,” Infiniti says. She didn’t engage in the story herself until much later. “It was a bit too dark for me at that point. I was more of a <em>The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel </em>girl in high school.”</p><p>On the other hand, Halliday defines herself as a “massive Margaret Atwood fan,” and she read <em>The Testaments </em>immediately upon its publication in 2019. Still, there was research to be done before arriving on set.</p><p>“We both took it upon ourselves to be as prepared as possible, because we didn't want to let anyone down,” Halliday recalls. “So we spoke to everyone who would speak to us.” That includes Dowd, with whom both women shared scenes, as well as the show’s creator, Bruce Miller, and director, Mike Barker. “All these people were such a source for us, and we really leaned on them.” Moss, who serves as an executive producer on <em>The Testaments</em>, was also a helpful resource. (She pops up throughout <em>The Testaments</em>’ first season, mostly in scenes alongside Halliday.)</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/7/1d935eb7/177406_0126rt.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Mattea Conforti, Halliday, Infiniti, and Isolde Ardies. | Photo by Russ Martin/Disney via Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>“I spent the first half of those scenes in awe,” Halliday says. “It did feel like she was passing the mantle. She afforded us the space to step into this world.”</p><p>While Infiniti didn’t get a chance to film with Moss (at least, not yet), she does have experience with another <em>Handmaid’s Tale </em>alum: O-T Fagbenle, who plays Moss’s husband in the original series. Infiniti and Fagbenle worked together on the 2024 Apple TV+ series, <em>Presumed Innocent.</em></p><p>“My man, O-T, I love him,” Infiniti says at the mention of her former costar. She laughs at a memory of the two discussing <em>The Handmaid’s Tale </em>on the set of <em>Presumed Innocent</em>,<em> </em>long before <em>The Testaments </em>role came into her life. “He was talking about <em>The Handmaid’s Tale</em>,<em> </em>but he remarked, ‘That show might be a bit too intense for you.’ Jump cut to three or four years later, and now I'm essentially playing his daughter.” (Agnes, born Hannah, is the daughter of Moss’s June and Fagbenle’s Luke, though she is unaware of her true parentage.)</p><p>To be fair, Fagbenle was right. <em>The Handmaid’s Tale</em> was intense, as is <em>The Testaments</em>. The show never shies away from showing the violence and corruption that breeds inside a fascist regime. “The amount of things these girls have to withstand will leave you heartbroken,” Infiniti promises.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/7/399635c1/the-testaments-daisy-incident.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Russ Martin/Disney General Entertainment Content/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Rowan Blanchard, Mattea Conforti, and Isolde Ardies round out the show’s core group of young people, and the fivesome bonded closely making sure the script's intensity didn't seep into their reality. “The bonds we had and the amount of lightness we brought to set really helped us get through the stressful days at work,” Infiniti says. While filming in Toronto, the group would regularly grab meals together and even attend dinner theater at Medieval Times. “Multiple times,” Infiniti says.</p><p><em>The Testaments</em> was the first opportunity for Infiniti to engage with people her age on set. Both in <em>Presumed Innocent </em>and <em>One Battle</em>, she was the only member of her generation.</p><p>“I loved working on those projects, but I did get a bit lonely,” she admits. In contrast, Infiniti describes <em>The Testaments </em>as a high school setting, saying, “They became my group of friends.” Though Infiniti’s résumé is hardly long, her relative experience compared to the other young women allowed her to take on a mentor role within the group. “I wanted to be a voice of advocacy for the other girls who were in the show, because it can be scary to be that young and be a part of something so big,” she says.</p><p>And while Infiniti is only three years Halliday’s senior, the latter has no problem calling her costar an “old-timer.”</p><p>“I’m an auntie,” Infiniti agrees with a laugh. But to clarify, <em>not </em>a Gilead aunt.</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[tv]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category><category><![CDATA[culture]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Look Back At 15 Years of Justin Bieber's Best Red Carpet Moments]]></title><description><![CDATA[We're celebrating the singer's 30th birthday with a look back at his best red carpet moments over the last 15 years.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/justin-bieber-best-style-moments-fashion-red-carpet</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/justin-bieber-best-style-moments-fashion-red-carpet</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Apr 2026 20:39:28 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Carolyn Twersky Winkler]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2024/3/1/6eb0241e-3732-4fbe-95f1-8b8f7064890f-getty-1340273608.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2024/3/1/6eb0241e-3732-4fbe-95f1-8b8f7064890f-getty-1340273608.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Sean Zanni/Patrick McMullan/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>It’s hard to believe Justin Bieber has been in the spotlight for 15 years. It seems like just yesterday, his first single, “One Time,” was taking over airwaves on the summer radio, but it has been a decade and a half since the bowl cut-loving Canadian first popped up on our screens. Of course, in the time, Bieber has gone through quite the transformation—from a teen boy in a purple hoodie to a married, 30-year-old man in...well, still a lot of hoodies. Bieber has very casual style, which he has always showed off on red carpets. Even in the beginning, of his career, when he had to put on a suit for appearances at the Grammys or Golden Globes, he always added his own flare with a pair of high top sneakers. And today, now that he’s more comfortable in front of the cameras, he isn’t afraid to wear whatever he wants on the red carpet, even sweatpants. In actuality, Bieber really doesn’t walk a lot of red carpets anymore, but when he does, we can expect his own take on classic men’s style, often aided by Balenciaga, or the singer’s own brand, Drew. Below, we’re looking back at the last 15 years and the many style phases Bieber went through in that time, from his suit vest obsession to his Dolce &amp; Gabbana era, to now. </p><h2>2026: Grammy Awards</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/7/40d026ba/los-angeles-california-february.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Amy Sussman/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>For his first Grammy awards red carpet in four years, Bieber went with a decidedly oversized black suit form Balenciaga accented only by a silver chain. </p><h2>2026: Grammy Awards</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/7/3b269680/los-angeles-california-february.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Kevin Mazur/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>While on the red carpet he covered himself in the most amount of fabric possible, on stage her wore just a pair of boxers from his own label Skylrk,. </p><h2>2025: Los Angeles</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/7/8f898e40/beverly-hills-ca-october.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>MEGA/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Bieber was spotted in Los Angeles in a variation of his off-duty uniform.

The beloved actress has established a <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/story/may08-pressrelease">sharp style streak</a> over the years, ranging from classic elegance to bohemian glamour. Now, she’s embracing a new minimalist aesthetic on the press tour of her upcoming Apple TV dark comedy film <em>The Outcome</em>, with majorly fashionable results.</p><p>Monday night’s premiere of the film at New York City’s AMC Lincoln Square Theater found Diaz in a modern take on all-black dressing: a gauzy, sleeveless A-line dress layered over a sheer turtleneck top, both by Fforme. It was an unepxected yet clever take on layering, which paired smoothly with a matching Ahikoza *By Brham satin clutch. Diaz gave her look a dash of color with Parisian label Jude’s red leather <a href="https://thejude.com/products/haze-pump-in-red-leather" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Haze pumps</a>, which smoothly matched her signature red lipstick. The brand specializes in stark footwear with subtle details, evidenced by her style’s almond-shaped toes and tapered heels. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/7/9e7cddc3/new-york-new-york.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>TheStewartofNY/FilmMagic/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>The star’s attire also aligned with the trending <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/cameron-diaz-white-sleeve-beige-heels-los-angeles">“rich mom” dressing</a> ethos, which focuses on minimalist, polished separates and layers in neutral or single-tone colors. The aesthetic emphasizes tailored, put-together outfits that are effortless and modern, while also including classic wardrobe staples like blazers, loafers, and crisp collared shirts. </p><p>However, this wasn’t Diaz’s first “rich mom” outing. In fact, she first took the aesthetic to <em>The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon</em> days before in a cream wide-legged suit over a silky tank top. Her only accessories were a gleaming gold ring, Méga Jewelry’s rounded <a href="https://megajewelry.com/products/bulles-earrings?srsltid=AfmBOoopnVmF3J5oXmG7xyGhAUvJFArJQONd0QCspvJI2E0TsrHKr3iG" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Bulles earrings</a>, and the same red Jude pumps from <em>The Outcome</em>’s premiere, proving that lightning can strike twice—especially with the right pair of shoes.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/7/e5155632/the-tonight-show-starring.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Todd Owyoung/NBC via Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Single-colored pumps like Diaz’s—an overarching shoe trend of the 2010’s—have also had a comeback of their own this spring. The style’s resurgence aligns with a recent return to <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/spring-2026-runway-style-trends-photos">formal, mature dressing</a>, ranging from kitten-height to angled, block, and stiletto-heeled pairs. Red has proven a particularly popular hue, while different shades of green, blue, purple, and yellow have also spread across styles by Celine, Jil Sander, Valentino, Khaite, Tory Burch, and more. If Diaz’s outings are any indication, the trend’s certainly one worth trying—and is sure to stand out against versatile, minimalist attire. </p><p>Diaz’s two ensembles proved that sophisticated pieces with a sharp color palette can make an impact, even if they aren’t overly maximalist. Plus, with ongoing press for <em>The Outcome</em> and a new <em>Shrek</em> film on the horizon, there’s sure to be even more chic fashion moments in her future.</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[red carpet]]></category><category><![CDATA[celebrity style]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[The 14 Biggest Accessory Trends From the Fall 2026 Runways]]></title><description><![CDATA[Here's how to incorporate these looks into your wardrobe now.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/best-accessories-trends-fall-2026-bags-shoes-jewelry</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/best-accessories-trends-fall-2026-bags-shoes-jewelry</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Apr 2026 17:58:11 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[W Staff]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/7/b748a326/acc_trends_social.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/7/b748a326/acc_trends_social.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><p>The fall 2026 shows may have ended in March, but the trends found on the runways in <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/new-york-fashion-week-fall-2026-recap">New York</a>, <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/london-fashion-week-fall-2026-best-runway-looks-photos">London</a>, <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/milan-fashion-week-fall-2026-best-runway-looks">Milan</a>, and <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/milan-fashion-week-fall-2026-best-runway-looks">Paris</a> are still fresh on our minds. While each label presented a distinct vision for the season, as always, there were certain themes and through lines that connected the collections. Here are 14 of our favorite accessories trends, which you’ll likely see everywhere come September.</p><h2>Stuck in Customs</h2><p>Fine feathered shoes at Prada, Dior’s snakeskin purses, fuzzy bags at Chanel—this trend requires a handheld carry. Exotic skins, furs, and accessories inspired by fish and wildlife were all over the fall 2026 runways. And although most of these materials are faux, they’re still bound to get flagged by customs agents. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/493779a8/acc-trends11.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: handbags from the runways of Prada, Dior, and Chanel. | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>Touch Grass</h2><p>One of the most pervasive moods of the season was the desire to unplug. Through their collections and show details, designers urged us to go touch grass, bringing the outdoors to the catwalk. Models walked down mossy paths in floral earrings at Miu Miu, over grassy mounds with bags on sticks at Louis Vuitton, and in lily pad shoes surrounded by lily ponds at Dior.  </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/00aa8e4d/acc-trends14.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: accessories from the runways of Miu Miu, Dior, and Chloé. | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>Private Eyes</h2><p>Going outside, however, requires sun protection—and designers were especially concerned with the eyes in particular. Wide wrap-around shield sunglasses were popping up on runways all month long, including tortoise glasses at Tory Burch and a rose-colored version from Celine.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/9e4152f5/acc-trends9.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: sunglasses from the runways of Loewe, Tory Burch, and Chloé. | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>To Have and to Hold</h2><p>Fall 2026 clutches are meant to carry more than just your essentials. At Michael Kors, the bags looked like red silk napkins from a dinner party; Chanel’s accessories resembled a wrinkled swatch of metallic wrapping paper. Clutches have a tendency to blend in, but these styles bore features that were much more than meets the eye. Consider Hermès, where a clandestine watch was tucked underneath the bag’s clasp. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/90165a5b/acc-trends13.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: accessories from the runways of Bottega Veneta, Chanel, and Michael Kors. | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2><em>Petite Folie</em></h2><p>This season marks the return of the minaudière. Some designers—like Jonathan Anderson at Dior and Demna for Gucci—swapped out big bags for these handheld jewels. No, you can’t fit your phone inside them, but they add sparkle, uniqueness, and true whimsy to your look.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/a079c54d/acc-trends8.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: handbags from the runways of Dior, Gucci, and Loewe. | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>Bling It On</h2><p>“Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off,” Coco Chanel famously said. Clearly, designers weren’t playing by this rule for fall 2026. Models at Dries Van Noten, Louis Vuitton, and Saint Laurent were working double-duty jewels, adorned with both earrings and heavy necklaces at the same time. Go for bold!</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/8cadf6eb/acc-trends2.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: accessories from the runways of Dries Van Noten, Louis Vuitton, and Saint Laurent. | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>All the Fixings</h2><p>Beaded and embellished bags ruled the runways, from Loewe to Gucci. At Maria Grazia Chiuri’s Fendi debut, embellished purses were the stars of the season. Floral embroidery at Valentino made this trend hard to ignore.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/b1ff24d5/acc-trends.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: handbags from the runways of Chanel, Gucci, and Dior. | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>From Car to Carpet</h2><p>These shoes were made for <em>arriving</em>, not walking. For fall, we are coveting fragile footwear crafted from satin, covered in glitter, and adorned with embroidery and fringe. They might be too delicate for the elements, but they are perfect for a party.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/3bad5e99/acc-trends4.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: shoes from the runways of Miu Miu, Alaïa, and Prada. | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>Flap Back</h2><p>Some items never go out of style, and the flap bag is a true testament to this fact. If you weren’t lucky enough to snag Matthieu Blazy’s debut maxi flap bag when the <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/matthieu-blazy-first-chanel-collection-launch-interviews">Chanel collection dropped in stores</a>, these choices are strong alternatives. From the puffy take at Bottega Veneta to the crossbody at Coach, you too can be a “flapper” this season.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/d95ef687/acc-trends5.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: handbags from the runways of Bottega Veneta, Miu Miu, and Balmain. | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>Stocking Stuffers</h2><p>Trending across the runways this season? Colorful tights and slinky socks. Take Moschino, which paired evening looks with pea green stockings. Dries Van Noten’s wool socks came with a nature-inspired print, and Marni tapped into a schoolgirl look with its burnt-orange socks. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/cf08b283/acc-trends10.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: stockings from the runways of Marni, Dries Van Noten, and Moschino. | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>Hattitude...</h2><p>Hats for fall 2026 set out with the message that attitude and boldness go hand in hand. At Hodakova, toppers did not frame just the head, but the whole face. Issey Miyake made fluid felt creations while Vivienne Westwood took the top hat to new heights.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/6a1602b4/acc-trends6.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: hats from the runways of Issey Miyake, Lanvin, and Bottega Veneta. | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>...and Major Brims</h2><p>On the other hand, simplicity and construction were top of mind for the chicest hats of the season. Phoebe Philo made her caps smooth around the edges and brimmed below the eyes. Michael Kors took everyone’s favorite bucket hat and delivered it in leather. And at Yohji Yamamoto, the sun hat got a high-fashion upgrade.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/6b8e6d5c/acc-trends3.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: hats from the runways of Hodakova, Balenciaga, and Yohji Yamamoto. | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>Knitting Club</h2><p>The best thing about this trend is, if you can’t afford it, you can make it. Knit accessories were a go-to piece for warmth on the runways.

For her latest outing in Paris, the star proved that even athleisure can get a makeover from her impressive handbag and shoe collection—all with a dash of sophisticated style.</p><p>While leaving Galeries Lafayette, Rihanna was spotted in a black hoodie and matching flared leggings. She gave the comfortable set a cool edge with dark sunglasses and an oversize black leather jacket by Willy Chavarria. Naturally, Rihanna completed her look with a brand-new bag: Celine’s black leather <a href="https://www.celine.com/en-us/celine-shop-women/handbags/more-lines/doctors-pouch-in-supple-natural-calfskin-L104J3G40.38NO.html?utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_content=brand&amp;utm_campaign=Celine_FLG_USA_PLA-ROAS_UNI_MUL_OGOING_EC_SHOP_GSHO_CRD_ENG_USD_NAPP_NAMER&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=1967889563&amp;gbraid=0AAAAACy3BrWGkAETe9jiVwAEsrx-PspcW&amp;gclid=CjwKCAjw1tLOBhAMEiwAiPkRHlo-cJ7h9-EZUUJ-l7t-m-c4e8D-S-EDa5hNEJpgmTp6DdSVF4k1zhoCKwIQAvD_BwE" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Doctor’s Pouch</a>. Created by newly minted creative director <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/michael-rider-celine-artistic-director-interview-2025">Michael Rider</a>, the soft style featured a vintage shape with minimal gold hardware that gave her monochrome look a sophisticated, well-traveled touch.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/7/f27829e2/paris-france-april-6.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>FJLON3/Mega/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>The rounded bag also complemented Rihanna’s surprising shoe choice: black patent leather ballet flats. Rather than strap into her go-to <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/rihanna-subway-grates-high-heels-gotham-awards-2025">statement heels</a> or <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/rihanna-pink-trapeze-dress-bag-sneakers-los-angeles">ultra-trendy sneakers</a>, the star slipped on a pair of clean, minimal flats with lightly squared toes and delicate grosgrain bows. The ballerina-worthy style added a chic base to her look, whose mixed textures were united by monochrome black for a streamlined appearance.</p><p>Though surprising, Rihanna’s flats still undeniably fell within her footwear wheelhouse. Since 2024, the star has been at the forefront of the recent <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/best-ballet-flats">ballet flats revival</a>. The viral mesh-and-crystal-covered <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/alaia-pieter-mulier-designer-interview">Alaïa</a> Mary Janes were two of her most-worn pairs, with <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/rihanna-pink-white-pajamas-tabi-ballet-flats-los-angeles">Margiela’s blush Tabis</a> and Gucci’s square-toed pink satin ballerinas also in the mix.</p><p>While continuing her love affair with flats, the star’s all-black look also marked her <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/rihanna-asap-rocky-paris-dracula-bag">latest outing</a> in Paris. On Sunday, she visited Siena for a dinner date with A$AP Rocky, effortlessly outfitted in burgundy Alaïa cargo pants and matching Tom Ford pumps. Dior’s bright yellow <em>Dracula</em> Saddle bag proved the perfect vampiric accessory for the trendsetting couple’s night on the town. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/7/d80b370b/paris-france-april-4.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>FJLON3/Mega/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>When it comes to off-duty dressing, Rihanna always keeps us on our toes—and whatever she wears next is sure to be a welcome high-fashion surprise.</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[celebrity style]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sabrina Carpenter's Red Carpet Style: From Child Star to Pop Princess]]></title><description><![CDATA[From dramatic princess gowns to exposed undergarments, see exactly how the singer's style has evolved over the years.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/sabrina-carpenter-red-carpet-style-fashion</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/sabrina-carpenter-red-carpet-style-fashion</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Apr 2026 16:18:01 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matthew Velasco]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2025/5/8/8836cc49/us-singer-sabrina-carpenter.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2025/5/8/8836cc49/us-singer-sabrina-carpenter.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>ANGELA WEISS/AFP/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Like many Disney stars, Sabrina Carpenter has come a long, long way since her days on the network. After cutting her teeth in the likes of <em>Girl Meets World </em>and<em> Tall Girl</em>, the Pennsylvania native has gone on to forge a successful music career of her own, culminating in the smash hit “Espresso” off her album, <em>Short n’ Sweet</em>. While producing songs like “Nonsense” and “Taste<em>,” </em>Carpenter managed to forge a unique red carpet wardrobe that combines hyper-feminine silhouettes with edgy details like cut-outs and exposed undergarments.</p><p>The triple threat—she can act, sing,<em> and</em> dance—has cozied up to some of fashion’s top brands like Miu Miu, Louis Vuitton, and Moschino as well as independent labels like Cong Tri and Mônot. It’s become customary for Carpenter pull out a statement red carpet moment during events like the Grammys and MTV Video Music Awards, arming herself with some sort of high-impact gown (probably vintage), a bold color way or pattern, and her signature blonde bangs. Below, a look back at Sabrina Carpenter’s red carpet evolution, from pre-teen star to pure pop princess.</p><h2>2026: Grammys Awards</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/7/b439f6e2/los-angeles-california-february.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Amy Sussman/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Carpenter turned to the opulent imagination of Valentino’s Alessandro Michele for her 2026 Grammys gown.

Photograph by Sam Rock; Courtesy of Alaïa</figcaption></figure><h2>Alaïa Denim</h2><p>There are many changes underway at Alaïa. With <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/peter-mulier-leaving-alaia">Pieter Mulier’s departure from the brand,</a> a new creative director will soon step in to fill the space. But in the meantime, Alaïa is hardly twiddling its thumbs. Instead, the brand is branching into a new lane, denim, with a line of jeans designed to sculpt and define women’s lower half. </p><p>To be clear, denim is hardly a new fabric for Alaïa, which has been showing jeans for decades. But now, Alaïa Denim will stand on its own as the brand becomes a go-to for the wardrobe staple. The styles were developed over the course of a year, and as a result, each piece is refined and exact. The brand will offer six shapes: Bootcut, Palazzo, Fit and Flare, Round, Skinny, and Straight. Each style comes in a different wash, with the Bootcut rendered in a deep-sea blue and the Fit-and-Flare offering a more sand-washed option. The denim itself was made in Japan, where it was rope-dyed and treated to perfection, just like one would a second skin.

The collection highlights Chavarria’s signature style, including his precise tailoring and strong silhouettes. Rendered in Italian fabrics, leather, cupro, denim, knits, and jerseys, the line references American workwear and Chavarria’s own Chicano cultural identity. The name of the collection is a colloquial term used in the Chicano community to refer to friends, partners, homies, and loved ones. With his collection, Chavarria is extending the boundaries of his community to include the masses. <em>Vatísmo</em> features ready-to-wear, jewelry, and accessories, and will be available in select Zara stores and online at <a href="https://www.zara.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">zara.com</a> beginning on March 26. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/23/691170ac/gl_zara_12172310_v5_qc_300dpi.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photograph by Glen Luchford; Courtesy of Zara</figcaption></figure><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/23/5dc30fe8/gl_zara_12141005_v3_qc_300dpi.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photograph by Glen Luchford; Courtesy of Zara</figcaption></figure><h2>John Hardy’s Icon Stud Collection</h2><p>John Hardy zeroes in on its signature codes with the launch of Icon Stud, a sharp modernist collection that pairs architectural pyramid studs with the brand’s Balinese handwoven chain.

Spanning earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and rings in silver, gold, and diamond pavé, the pieces are designed for daily wear with impact. As John Hardy celebrates 50 years, Icon Stud signals a sleeker, more directional evolution for the heritage brand.

The clothing brand has partnered with Stetson for a 25-piece collection that combines The Great’s classic Americana style with Stetson’s 160-year-old Western heritage.</p><p>Faded blues, calming neutrals, and gently worn reds make up the color palette for the collection. Floral embroidery and vintage-influenced prints appear on a wardrobe that impressively remains modern in spite of its classic Western details. </p><p>Ranging in price from $45 to $625, offerings include embroidered chambray tops and matching skirts to be topped with cozy belted cardigans. Of course, there are hats featuring Stetson’s signature craftsmanship, along with belts, bags, and a variety of cowboy boots.

Browne has partnered with Asics on a new shoe that reinterprets the Gel-Kayano 14 using luxury materials and finishes. Performance merges with Thom Browne’s signature tailoring to create a style that fits squarely into both brands’ codes. Red, white, and blue lace catchers incorporate his favorite patriotic colorway, while nodding to the designer’s past as a varsity swimmer and runner. Leather and suede heighten the design, while piping accents reference Browne’s tailoring prowess. The sneaker represents the perfect blend of both brands, combining the divergent styles to create a detail-driven, yet still wearable shoe. The Thom Browne x Asics Gel-Kayano 14 sneakers come in three colorways: black, gray, and white. The former two are available now at Thom Browne retail locations, on <a href="https://www.thombrowne.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">www.thombrowne.com</a>, and in select retailers globally.

Crew’s Rollneck Sweater</h2><p>Just in time for New York Fashion Week, J. Crew has tapped five emerging American designers to reinterpret the brand’s signature rollneck sweater. Bucci NYC, Collina Strada, Eckhaus Latta, Patrick Taylor, and Tanner Fletcher were all invited to bring the 40-year-old staple into their aesthetic universe. Each designer lent their own points of view to the project, resulting in five very different takes on the sweater. Hillary Taymour of Collina Strada—a brand known for its use of color and texture—incorporated both into her version, presenting a pink-and-green striped top with feminine lace. Tanner Fletcher designers, Tanner Richie and Fletcher Kasell, opted to go in a more retro direction and paid homage to J. Crew’s nautical roots with a whimsical, sailor-inspired flap-tie. Those looking to show a bit of skin while staying warm will no doubt gravitate toward Mishka Ivanovic’s design for Buci NYC, which features a low back that adds a touch of unexpected sex appeal. The five iterations mean there’s something for everyone in this collection, and you can shop it now on <a href="https://www.jcrew.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">jcrew.com</a> or in the store’s immersive pop-up experience on 75 Spring Street. </p><div><a href="https://www.jcrew.com/p/womens/categories/clothing/sweaters/pullovers/the-rollnecktrade-by-collina-strada/CS712?display=standard&amp;fit=Classic&amp;color_name=pale-pink-multi&amp;colorProductCode=CS712"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/2/13/0ec3e760/collina-strada.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>The Rollneck™ by Collina Strada</h3></a><a href="https://www.jcrew.com/p/womens/categories/clothing/sweaters/pullovers/the-rollnecktrade-by-collina-strada/CS712?display=standard&amp;fit=Classic&amp;color_name=pale-pink-multi&amp;colorProductCode=CS712"><em>J.

Daveed Baptiste of Daveed Baptiste, LaTouché of LaTouché, Igdaliah Pickering of Igdalyah, Waina Chancy of Atelier Ndigo, and Nicole Benefield of Nicole Benefield Portfolio were all tapped to create four pieces that reimagine denim through their respective lenses. Baptiste, a Brooklyn-based Haitian-American artist, was inspired by ocean waves, Caribbean shores, and blue sunsets, while Benefield looked to redefine the modern uniform by incorporating menswear-inspired utilitarian themes. Together, the individual capsules showcase the versatility of denim and the depth of Gap’s archives.

Originally presented as part of Noir Kei Ninomiya’s spring 2026 show during Paris Fashion Week last fall, the collection merges the modern femininity and craftsmanship of Jimmy Choo with Kei Ninomiya’s avant-garde innovation. Inspired by the Noir Kei Ninomiya spring 2026 theme of “pure and playful,” the collaboration consists of four shoes, three harnesses, and a bag. Feminine and masculine converge in the form of the Maxi Loafer, which combines a classic men’s loafer with a delicate Jimmy Choo drop heel. For those seeking a simpler style, there’s the Star Shoe, a simple Oxford decorated with studded stars. The harnesses, similarly, are adorned with crystals and steel studs, as is the nappa leather backpack. </p><p>“I have always been fascinated by the design of the Comme des Garçons universe—an incredible and rich commitment to creativity without borders or boundaries, so to collaborate with Kei is the realization of a decades-long dream,” says Jimmy Choo creative director Sandra Choi. “Expanding Jimmy Choo beyond traditional concepts of luxury, this collection melds together both of our distinct aesthetics in a celebration of the power of pure imagination.” The Jimmy Choo x Noir Kei Ninomiya is available now on <a href="https://us.jimmychoo.com/en/home" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">jimmychoo.com</a>, through select retailers, and at Jimmy Choo and Dover Street Market boutiques. </p><div><a href="https://us.jimmychoo.com/en/jimmy-choo-noir-kei-ninomiya-maxi-loafer%C2%A0/black-polished-calf-leather-loafers-JCNKNMAXILOAFERPQB010003.html"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/2/13/b938517f/jimmy-choo-noir-kei.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Jimmy Choo Noir Kei Ninomiya Maxi Loafer </h3></a><a href="https://us.jimmychoo.com/en/jimmy-choo-noir-kei-ninomiya-maxi-loafer%C2%A0/black-polished-calf-leather-loafers-JCNKNMAXILOAFERPQB010003.html"><em>Jimmy Choo - </em></a></div><div><a href="https://us.jimmychoo.com/en/jimmy-choo-noir-kei-ninomiya-single-star-harness/black-smooth-calf-leather-harness-with-metal-multi-star-embellishment-JCNKNSNGLSTARHNFOD000071.html"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/2/13/a802c2fc/jimmy-choo-noir-kei.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Jimmy Choo Noir Kei Ninomiya Single Star Harness</h3></a><a href="https://us.jimmychoo.com/en/jimmy-choo-noir-kei-ninomiya-single-star-harness/black-smooth-calf-leather-harness-with-metal-multi-star-embellishment-JCNKNSNGLSTARHNFOD000071.html"><em>Jimmy Choo - </em></a></div><div><a href="https://us.jimmychoo.com/en/jimmy-choo-noir-kei-ninomiya-star-shoe/black-polished-calf-leather-lace-up-shoes-with-star-embellishment-JCNKNSTARSHOEFVV0C7631.html"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/2/13/bf87dafc/jimmy-choo-noir-kei.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Jimmy Choo Noir Kei Ninomiya Star Shoe</h3></a><a href="https://us.jimmychoo.com/en/jimmy-choo-noir-kei-ninomiya-star-shoe/black-polished-calf-leather-lace-up-shoes-with-star-embellishment-JCNKNSTARSHOEFVV0C7631.html"><em>Jimmy Choo - </em></a></div><h2>Bulgari Icons Minaudière Collection</h2><p>Bulgari’s creative director of leather goods and accessories, Mary Katrantzou, introduces a new line of objets d’art, inspired by over 140 years of the high jewelry brand’s expertise and savoir-faire of jewelry-making. The collection reimagines five of Bulgari’s timeless symbols, including the Serpenti, transforming them into functional accessories. Each one is created from precious enamel, pavé settings, and various inlays of semiprecious color stones. The pieces are suspended from a delicate chain and offered in two sizes—the minaudière and the miniature vanity—making them functional, as well as beautiful.</p><p>In honor of the launch, Bulgari tapped photographer Ethan James Green to capture five women with their minaudières. Each person embodies the collection and its representation of strength, transformation, wisdom, allure, and identity. Models, actors, and more, these women are creators of culture. With this new collection, Katrantzou hopes to allow everyone to “carry culture” around with them, too. The Icons Minaudière Collection is available at 11 Bulgari boutiques worldwide. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/23/5198ae1c/00100_0092_r6_qc.jpeg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Bulgari</figcaption></figure><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/23/86d6b536/00050_0052_r5_qc.jpeg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Bulgari</figcaption></figure><h2>Givenchy by Sarah Burton’s Snatch Bag</h2><p>We’ve had the opportunity to sit with Sarah Burton’s Givenchy for almost a year now, through two collections and a lot of red carpet dressing, which makes it the perfect time for the designer to release her first official purse with the brand, the Snatch Bag. </p><p>Described as “a study in intimacy,” the bag complements Burton’s designs for Givenchy, with sculptural curves that mimic the shape of a woman’s body, specifically one adorned in a cinched jacket that shows off the waist, or a bra that curves downward to display décolletage. Crafted in supple, calf-grain leather, the bag features short handles that enable over-the-shoulder wear, as well as strips of leather that extend from the top. The bag is available in three sizes—including a small version that can be worn across the body—and in various colorways, both classics like black and dark brown and more eccentric options like baby pink and red. The hardware is also available in both gold and silver, making the piece customizable. The Snatch Bag will be available soon on <a href="https://www.givenchy.com/us/en-US/homepage?gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=6494355253&amp;gbraid=0AAAAACkqFK4G4fWRN2OrKoKYBj8-ufVQu&amp;gclid=CjwKCAiAssfLBhBDEiwAcLpwfo6wXNWkbNsNDmsfs0GRxjADgyF2ocYK4F0iVKxYpL1Z7bqmDB_83xoC95EQAvD_BwE" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">givenchy.com</a> and in Givenchy stores. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/22/f9f21e9a/givenchy_2026_snatch_bag_campaign_4x5_05.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Givenchy</figcaption></figure><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/23/d90daf8d/givenchy_2026_snatch_bag_campaign_4x5_01.jpeg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Givenchy by Sarah Burton</figcaption></figure><h2>Moncler x Rick Owens</h2><p>Moncler is sealing its latest collaboration with a kiss. Or rather, multiple kisses. The outerwear brand is celebrating its first collaboration with Rick Owens with a campaign shot by Juergen Teller. In the set of six images, Owens, Teller, and their respective wives and creative partners, Michèle Lamy and Dovile Drizyte, trade smooches while dressed head-to-toe in the collection. </p><p>While Moncler is known mostly for its winterwear, this collaboration offers more lightweight, warm-weather options. The looks are inspired by Berlin’s brutalist architecture, as well as the city’s natural spaces, where those hulking buildings meet bucolic greenery. (Owens calls it “brucolic.”) Each garment, therefore, can take the wearer from the city streets straight to the great outdoors. An adjustable jersey skirt and nappa leather bomber may lean more toward a more cosmopolitan air, while Trailgrip Megalace sneakers and a cropped, funnel-neck down jacket are begging to be taken on a hike. With a refined color palette of black, dark dust, vintage olive, and bold carnelian red, these pieces can be worn anywhere and feel completely at home.

The youngest Fanning sister has embraced the art of subtle and maximalist <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/elle-fanning-best-red-carpet-moments">method dressing</a>, whether she’s on the <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/elle-fanning-sleeping-beauty-aurora-balmain-met-gala">Met Gala red carpet</a> or <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/elle-fanning-white-bra-skirt-leather-jacket-vintage-pins-predator-premiere">promoting her latest project</a>. Case in point: the press tour for her new Hulu series, <em>Margot’s Got Money Troubles</em>, which officially kicks off this week.</p><p>For a cast appearance at SiriusXM Studios in New York City on Monday, Fanning was elegantly outfitted in a pale pink silk dress from <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/alberta-ferretti-retirement">Alberta Ferretti</a>’s fall 2026 collection. Designed by creative director Lorenzo Serafini, the long-sleeve piece featured a midi-length skirt, gathered waistline, and draped handkerchief neckline. The dress was replete with a delicate allover floral pattern, which gave the formal style a distinctly vintage feel.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/7/9e19820c/new-york-new-york.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Cindy Ord/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Her look was simply accessorized with gold Cartier rings. To contrast and complement Fanning’s feminine dress, stylist Elizabeth Stewart finished the star’s look with triple-strapped <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/miuccia-prada-profile-interview-miu-miu-kendall-jenner">Miu Miu</a> pumps. The glossy deep red pair featured a pointed-toe silhouette with thin stiletto heels, given a sultry touch with three long asymmetric buckled upper straps. The subversive shoe added an edgy, slightly preppy base to Fanning’s ladylike attire, smoothly coordinated by its pink and red color pairing. </p><p>The use of Miu Miu’s buckled pumps was an especially sharp option, given the shoe’s It status as a defining 2020s footwear style. First appearing in multiple colors as a kitten-heeled pump in the brand’s f<a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/miu-miu-fall-2023-paris-fashion-week-review">all 2023 show</a>, the buckled slingback was quickly worn by stars like Gigi Hadid, Emily Ratajkowski, and Lori Harvey. Once it became available on the wider market, the It girl shoe regularly sold out—particularly in its dark cherry red colorway—and was released in a higher heel height. Today, the shoe’s reign has continued with its cheeky merge of formal heels and Mary Janes and shows no signs of slowing down. It’s also cemented Miu Miu’s status for creating It shoe trends each season, from hiking-cord-strapped flip-flops to monk strap loafers, <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/miu-miu-spring-2026-runway-photos">chunky clogs</a>, and <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/miu-miu-fall-2026-miuccia-prada-runway-photos">crystal-coated slides</a>.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/7/10979efe/miumiunux_color12801280.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Mia Goth in Miu Miu’s Fall 2023 show. | Courtesy of Miu Miu</figcaption></figure><p>The contrast of traditional and modern feminine aesthetics is also at play onscreen in <em>Margot’s Got Money Troubles</em>. Out on April 15, the comedic drama series follows cash-strapped Margot (Fanning) as she navigates motherhood—and pursues a lucrative OnlyFans career—after becoming pregnant by her college professor. Nick Offerman and <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/michelle-pfeiffer-best-red-carpet-style-dresses-photos">Michelle Pfeiffer</a> also round out the cast as Margot’s parents, marking Fanning’s latest onscreen appearance with Pfeiffer after 2019’s <em>Maleficent: Mistress of Evil</em>. </p><p>As Fanning’s appearances for her latest TV venture continue this week, one thing’s for sure: She’s already taken an initial step in the right direction.</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[celebrity style]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anne Hathaway Takes Miranda Priestly's Valentino Rockstud Cue]]></title><description><![CDATA[The star's love for Valentino was front and center in Tokyo]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/anne-hathaway-takes-edgy-fashion-cue-from-miranda-priestly</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/anne-hathaway-takes-edgy-fashion-cue-from-miranda-priestly</guid><pubDate>Mon, 06 Apr 2026 20:29:39 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Aaron Royce]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/067f66e0/image004.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/067f66e0/image004.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Getty Images/Courtesy of Valentino</figcaption></figure><p>Valentino Rockstuds? In 2026? Groundbreaking. As <em>The <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/devil-wears-prada-2-anne-hathaway-costumes-shop">Devil Wears Prada 2</a></em>’s worldwide press tour continues, <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/anne-hathaway-best-red-carpet-moments">Anne Hathaway</a> stepped out in the studded shoe style for the film’s Tokyo premiere—and nonchalantly referenced editrix Miranda Priestly in the process.</p><p>For the occasion, Hathaway hit the red carpet with Meryl Streep at Japan’s Roppongi Hills Arena in a ruffled design from Valentino’s s<a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/valentino-couture-spring-2026-runway-photos">pring 2026 haute couture</a> collection. The black silk style featured a white peplum waistline and a maxi-length skirt covered in cascading ruffles. The piece’s strapless bodice included a folded panel lined in Valentino’s <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/anne-hathaway-vintage-couture-red-dress-valentino-new-york">signature bright red hue</a>, which coincidentally matched the fashionable film’s color scheme. Stylist Erin Walsh completed Hathaway’s look with sparkling gold and diamond post earrings and rings from Bulgari.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/1017b11a/image004.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Getty Images/Courtesy of Valentino</figcaption></figure><p>An updated version of Valentino’s Rockstud pumps provided the finishing touch to Hathaway’s ensemble. Her off-white leather pair featured the style’s signature pointed-toe silhouette and pyramid-stud-lined straps, complete with small front-toe-box cutouts. First released in 2010, the style—and its studs—has been reinterpreted in numerous shapes before current creative director Alessandro Michele revived them for a new generation.  </p><p>Though Hathaway has worn Valentino on numerous occasions over the years, her shoes were a surprise, as they subtly referenced Streep’s Roman Stud pumps worn in the sequel. The stud-lined red leather heels were the film’s first trending fashion moment, quickly going viral when its initial teaser dropped. Slated for a May 1 release, the <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/the-devil-wears-prada-sequel-explained-cast-plot-spoilers">upcoming movie</a> will follow Andy Sachs (Hathaway) as she returns to <em>Runway</em> magazine under Miranda Priestly (Streep), who’s dealing with media’s changing landscape while pursuing advertising funds from ex-assistant Emily Charlton (Emily Blunt). </p><p>Tokyo’s premiere also marked Hathaway’s latest outing on <em>The Devil Wears Prada 2</em>’s press tour, which began last week with its first premiere in Mexico City. For that occasion, Hathaway made headlines in a fringed Schiaparelli gown and a red sequined <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/anne-hathaway-meryl-streep-devil-wears-prada-2-press-tour-mexico-city">Stella McCartney minidress</a>, also styled by Walsh. With Hathaway’s upcoming premieres and appearances in Seoul, Shanghai, New York, and London on the horizon, we’re already anticipating plenty of future fashion fanfare for the star—and her well-heeled castmates—before the movie’s release. That’s all!</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[celebrity style]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dua Lipa Boosts High-Contrast Prints With A High-Voltage Speedy Bag]]></title><description><![CDATA[Dua Lipa mixed leopard and pinstripes together, though her Louis Vuitton handbag made a truly bold statement.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/dua-lipa-leopard-skirt-yellow-louis-vuitton-bag</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/dua-lipa-leopard-skirt-yellow-louis-vuitton-bag</guid><pubDate>Mon, 06 Apr 2026 19:38:09 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Aaron Royce]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/2bcf3686/dua-lipa-speedy-1.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/2bcf3686/dua-lipa-speedy-1.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@dualipa</figcaption></figure><p>For Dua Lipa, eclectic and <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/dua-lipa-black-swan-purse-blue-dress-milan">eye-catching fashion</a> isn’t just for the red carpet. The star’s longtime affinity for colorful, printed, and embellished looks is key to her off-duty style, as demonstrated in her latest post on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DWwfP64DhZO/?img_index=1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Instagram</a>.</p><p>Before stepping out in New York City, Dua posed for a mirror selfie in a charcoal pinstriped blazer over an open white button-up shirt and black tank top. The trio was layered with an asymmetric leopard-print skirt from The Attico, resulting in an instant mix of prints for an eclectic punk feel. The star finished her outfit with a set of Alexander McQueen’s black leather knee-high Birdee boots, as well as oversize dark sunglasses and two gleaming Bulgari rings.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/f6da66b8/dua-lipa-speedy-1.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@dualipa</figcaption></figure><p>However, the greatest fashion statement came from Dua’s handbag: a golden yellow Louis Vuitton Speedy satchel. (To be exact, she carried the French brand’s P9 Bandouliere 25 style, featuring a slightly smaller silhouette than its original Speedy duffel bag.) Complete with Vuitton’s signature monogram print, Dua’s accessory added a burst of sunny color that nodded to the brand’s heritage while remaining bold and whimsical—and, dare we say, radically optimistic. Now, our only question is if she borrowed the bag from fiancé <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/dua-lipa-sheer-black-dress-callum-turner-berlin-film-festival">Callum Turner</a>—who also happens to be a Vuitton model and ambassador.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/fb4a517f/dua-lipa-speedy-2.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@dualipa</figcaption></figure><p>Dua’s bag actually comes from Vuitton’s men’s collection, currently under the creative direction of <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/pharrell-williams-louis-vuitton-creative-director-announcement">Pharrell Williams</a>. He’s updated the men’s line with distinct themes and a fixture on bold, colorful dressing. In fact, the Speedy was the first Vuitton bag style that Williams revamped in 2023, in tonal colors like yellow, red, blue, and green as well as coordinating Damier-print versions. Since then, the style has been carried by a wave of fashion-forward stars, like Rihanna, <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/lisa-blackpink-louis-vuitton-camoflauge-bag-chrome-hearts-jeans">Lisa</a>, Zara Larsson, and Elsa Hosk, making Dua the latest to join the Speedy crew.</p><p>With spring around the corner, we’re already anticipating more colorful high-voltage looks from Dua—whether she’s onstage or off-duty. </p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[celebrity style]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Biggest Art Shows and Exhibitions You Can’t Miss in 2026]]></title><description><![CDATA[From French ceramist Emmanuel Boos's first solo show in the U.S. to Dean Majd's premiere NYC photo exhibition.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/art-shows-exhibits-museums-galleries-2026</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/art-shows-exhibits-museums-galleries-2026</guid><pubDate>Mon, 06 Apr 2026 17:51:14 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[W Staff]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/def1fa26/dscf1302.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/def1fa26/dscf1302.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><p>Twenty-twenty-six is a big year for those who like their art with a side of pop culture. Many of the world’s major museums and galleries are banking on big names for their first shows. Take David Zwirner New York, which invites you to drive away the winter blues with the help of Dan Flavin’s fluorescent grid sculptures, lighting up the gallery for the first few weeks of 2026. In London, Tate Modern showcases stunning Tracey Emin work that <em>And Just Like That...</em> fans might recognize, while the V&amp;A is going all in on Schiaparelli. Finally, the National Gallery of Iceland is celebrating Björk’s upcoming album with a three-work installation from the artist (plus an accompanying show from her frequent collaborator). Whether you’re fashion, music, or TV-minded, there’s something for you this winter—but that’s just the beginning of the ever-growing art calendar. More will come both in the U.S. and abroad, so if you’re planning some cultural stops for your next trip or just looking to see what’s on view in your neighborhood, consider this your all-encompassing guide to the can’t-miss art shows of the year. </p><h2><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DWRXYcSADCU/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Emmanuel Boos at Raisonné </a></h2><p>French ceramist Emmanuel Boos is bringing his glazed porcelain practice to NYC with his first solo show in the United States. A “glaze consultant” for Hermès and the recipient of the “Special Mention” award at the 2024 Loewe Foundation Craft Prize, Boos has long boasted a transatlantic career. But this show, <em>Noir C’est Noir, </em>takes border-jumping to a new level. From April 9, <a href="https://raisonnenewyork.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Raisonné</a> will host over 70 of Boos’s unique works, including coffee tables, side tables, stools, vases, and other objects. Together, these pieces illustrate Boos’s distinct style and exploration of fragile beauty and humorous practicality. </p><p>Boos’s porcelain practice allows him to embrace imperfection and welcome the unexpected, which he calls “happy accidents.” Also important to the process is Boos’s arrangement of his work within a space. There’s a modular aspect to this practice, with pieces grouped into various unfixed cohorts. This provides a reflection of the artist’s own nomadic life, and his closely held belief that meaning always exceeds function. “My practice of glaze does not aim for mastery nor domination,” the artist said in a statement. “I wish to slip into the glaze and develop a friendly relationship with chaos and eventually trust chance. It is emotion, sensuality, poetry.”</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/bad3462c/dscf1242.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>A piece from Emmanuel Boos’s show, Noir C’est Noir. | Raisonné/Zach Pontz</figcaption></figure><h2><a href="https://www.baxterst.org/events/hard-feelings/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Dean Majd at the Camera Club of New York</a></h2><p>In his debut solo show, <em>Hard Feelings</em>, Palestinian-American photographer Dean Majd chronicles a decade of brotherhood, grief, gore, and glory. As a young boy, the Queens, New York-born artist was often left alone, with only a camera in his hand to document his loved ones. But the sudden passing of a childhood friend in 2015 thrust him back into the nocturnal and hypermasculine graffiti and skate scenes, where the odyssey of <em>Hard Feelings </em>begins.</p><p>Driven by devastating loss and a desire to record truth, Majd captures deeply intimate portraits, demanding reflection and healing. In early imagery like <em>geri on the hellgate bridge </em>or <em>bohemian rhapsody</em>, risk and bliss alike appear in ritual and full force, from a young man undergoing a rite of passage, to friends sharing a hotel tub. The trust between Majd and his community is palpable, offering his sitters and viewers the opportunity to confront self-destruction head on. Brutality and tenderness unfolds as Majd’s community allows him to lens aftermaths of self-harm, abuse, and death. As both participant and observer, the artist’s visual language is unflinching and profoundly empathetic. Notably, <em>Hard Feelings </em>begins and ends with celebrations of life. —<em>Ayesha Le Breton</em></p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/30/07bf9474/mohamed-prayer-2020.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Dean Majd, Mohamed (Prayer), 2020. | Courtesy of the Artist</figcaption></figure><h2><a href="https://gagosian.com/exhibitions/2026/jonas-wood/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Jonas Wood at Gagosian</a></h2><p>The worlds of sporting and art combine in a series of works on display now at Gagosian’s Beverly Hills gallery. Over the past two decades, American artist Jonas Wood has turned prominent tennis matches into works of art, depicting these on-court battles in oil and acrylic paintings. The works are uniform in their vantage point, with each placing the viewer behind the baseline. Players and officials are nowhere to be seen, while spectators make an infrequent appearance in the form of abstract brushstrokes or dots.</p><p>Wood’s paintings blur the line between abstraction and Pop Art. A painted wood pattern surrounds <em>Wimbledon with Wood Grain</em> (2025), while the dotted audience of <em>Mexican Open </em>(2025) places the court in a star-filled galaxy. Homages to Roy Lichtenstein come in the form of works like <em>Paris Olympics with Crying Girl</em> (2025) and <em>Dubai with Nude with Blue Hair</em> (2026), where the late artist’s iconic <em>Crying Girl</em> (1963) and <em>Nude with Blue Hair </em>(1994) frame the courts. There is a standard followed with each painting: saturated colors, similar dimensions, and repeated elements. This uniformity allows the differences to come alive, making you ponder—and rethink—each piece.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/30/3b6bfb48/3fffa2d626666ef13158896642464a36.webp?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Porsche Tennis Grand Prix, 2025, Jonas Wood. | ©Jonas Wood/ Photo by Marten Elder/Courtesy of Gagosian</figcaption></figure><h2><a href="https://www.pinaultcollection.com/palazzograssi/en/lorna-simpson" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Lorna Simpson at Punta della Dogana</a></h2><p>Since her first solo show in New York in 1986, <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/lorna-simpson-the-met-art-exhibition-source-notes-2025">Lorna Simpson</a> has explored concepts of race, gender, identity, and subjectivity, archiving Black lives and experiences in vivid, boundary-breaking form. She changed the language of photography, turning the media on itself as she framed Black women with their faces just out of view, text collaged on the images that hinted at and asked the viewer to question how the women were seen. In the decades since, Simpson brought her renowned conceptual experimentation to collage, film, sculpture, and—beginning at the 2015 Venice Biennale—painting. Now, the legendary artist is opening her first major European exhibition at Pinault Collection’s Punta della Dogana in partnership with the Metropolitan Museum of Art. <em>Third Person</em>, running March 29 through November 22 at the Venice museum, features over 50 of Simpson’s paintings, spanning 20 years. There’s a special focus on the aforementioned large-scale works from Okwui Enwezor’s Biennale, never-before-seen offerings from Simpson’s personal archive, and new paintings made especially for this exhibition. —<em>Ashley Simpson</em></p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/23/74180cf2/38133.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Lorna Simpson, Woman on Snowball, 2020 | Courtesy of the Artist and Punta della Dogana</figcaption></figure><h2><a href="https://www.artrabbit.com/events/jessi-reaves-process-invented-the-mirror" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Jessi Reaves at Arts and Letters</a></h2><p>Ever since Arts and Letters NYC got a curatorial team (including Jenny Jaskey and curator Kristin Poor) two years ago, the uptown establishment has been increasingly showing up on downtown feeds. Rotated on the half year, a new suite of exhibitions has recently taken over Arts and Letters’s enviable rooms, including a mutation of Jessi Reaves’s first institutional solo show, which opened at the Walker Art Center earlier this year, and now has been reconstituted in a new configuration for Arts and Letters.</p><p>Cushions for tetris-like banquets welcome visitors into Art and Letters’s right wing; sitting atop these hand-painted perches, as you are encouraged to do, one can pivot in place and survey the show’s topography—namely, an archipelago of free-standing sculptures populated by a flock of reusable water bottles. Each water bottle bears a different paper cut-out of a bird, and these flightless creatures are like everything in Reaves’s world—a recombination. Reaves first made a name for herself in sculpture by dressing down modernist icons, Marcel Breuer seats and Le Corbusier lounges—until only their vulnerable essentials were left. Now more than a decade in, her attentions have turned elsewhere: to the empty promises of pure function and the transformative powers of accumulation. Here, a Nalgene bottle becomes a paper crane, a WPA mural becomes a bench, an art show in one city is something else entirely in a different location. By the time you’ve sat down, you’ve forgotten there is a painting underneath you. —<em>Kat Herriman</em></p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/23/6d51146c/jessi-reaves-hero-02.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Jessi Reaves, Big vanity with modesty flap, 2025 | Photo by GC Photography.

Guggenheim Museum. The occasion? Artist Carol Bove’s monumental new survey, which has taken on the Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece as a co-conspirator rather than an obstacle. Bove—whose work has long explored the juxtaposition of geometries, both found and made—draws out the patterns and repetitions embedded in the architect’s design. In doing so, she reveals that the museum’s famous circle is in fact composed of countless rings and discs, to which she adds several of her own in metal, fabric, and paint.</p><p>As you ascend the building’s signature spiral, you travel in reverse chronology through Bove’s career. You might notice you are also moving from dark to light; Bove has applied a black-to-white ombré that unfurls floor by floor. It is a minimal intervention with maximum impact. It all comes into focus the higher you climb—Bove has consistently, and gently, adjusted the essential forms we think we know so well. By doing so, she renews them, revealing truths that were hidden in plain sight. The most glaring and delightful example? A diamond-shaped cut Bove has made in a false wall, which reveals a Joan Miró work that hasn’t been seen for decades.</p><p>It is an exhibition that insists you slow down and unwind time. It warms you up for the act of steeping by creating the conditions conducive for it: ample seating and something to sip. —<em>K.H.</em></p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/4/a95554fd/carol-bove-exh_ph010-large.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Installation view, Carol Bove, March 5, 2026–August 2, 2026, Solomon R.

Paintings by American artist Harmonia Rosales are shown in dialogue with transcripts from the Getty’s collection, situating her work within the world of visual storytelling and placing her paintings in direct conversation with medieval representations of creation. Rosales has long been known to draw on artistic methods from the Renaissance and Baroque periods, combining them with African diasporic histories. She continues this practice with <em>Beginnings</em> by contributing a contemporary perspective shaped by West African spiritual traditions, adding to the ongoing conversation around creation. In addition to previous work, including <em>Portrait of Eve </em>(2021), <em>Beginnings </em>will feature a new piece, created in response to the significant illuminated manuscript, Stammheim Missal. </p><p>Beginnings: The Story of Creation in the Middle Ages<em> is on view at the Getty Center in Los Angeles from January 27 to April 19.</em></p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/2/17/941c931c/gm_433430ex1.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Harmonia Rosales, Portrait of Eve, 2021. | © Harmonia Rosales; Photo: Brad Kaye </figcaption></figure><h2><a href="https://halfgallery.com/los-angeles" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Leonard Baby at Half Gallery </a></h2><p>Leonard Baby’s new show may have a quirky title, but don’t be fooled. <em>Resting Babyface </em>features work from the New York-based artist, which he created during a period of profound sadness. As a result, the paintings on display encapsulate the essence of vulnerability and the complexities of personal experience. This is nothing new for Baby, who often draws on his past and emotions in his work, transforming trauma into acts of resilience and self-acceptance. In <em>Resting Babyface, </em>Baby turns the focus to two very vulnerable settings: the bedroom and a therapist’s office. With this new set of work, Baby explores themes of aftermath and introspection, using the paintings as personal confessionals meant to leave viewers in a state of discomfort and ambiguity. </p><p>Resting Babyface<em> is on view at Villa Carlotta in Los Angeles from February 26 to March 11. </em></p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/2/17/72db5b17/group-therapy-1.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Leonard Baby, Group Therapy. | Courtesy of Half Gallery</figcaption></figure><h2><a href="https://www.icaboston.org/exhibitions/african-american-master-artist-in-residence-program/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"><em>Say It Loud: AAMARP, 1977 to Now</em> at ICA Boston</a></h2><p>This February, the ICA Boston turns its attention to an artist-led institution that has shaped the fabric of New England’s art community since 1977. Founded by Dana C. Chandler Jr., the African American Master Artists-in-Residence Program (AAMARP) is one of the longest-running Black artist residency programs. Therefore, its story resonates not just on a local level but a national and international one. AAMARP’s influence can be felt far beyond Boston through its alumni network of artists, educators, and organizers. Conceived originally as a Black artist-led exhibition space, AAMARP evolved into a living ecosystem: part studio collective, part political area, and part cultural refuge, where new modes of working could take root even as institutional support shifted around it.</p><p>As the first exhibition devoted to AAMARP’s far-reaching legacy, it was essential for Mannion Family Curator Jeffrey De Blois to spend lots of time with members past and present. Developed in close dialogue with the founder Chandler before his passing in 2025, the show arrives less like a retrospective and more as a constellation of practices whose collective energy points outward. At the exhibition, the story of AAMARP’s community-driven approach is told through the work of five decades of participants. There are some folks you know. The rest are discoveries. Rather than closing a chapter, the exhibition feels like an opening gesture. —<em>K.H.</em></p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/2/17/ace072d3/aamarp_80_chandler-emancipationr1_75-3.tif?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Dana C.

The Detroit-born artist came of age at a time when Europe offered Black artists greater opportunity and receptivity. Smith’s travels abroad, specifically in the 1970s in Paris, proved formative; there, she encountered the evocative work of photographers like Brassaï and Henri Cartier-Bresson while developing a visual language of her own. This exhibition reflects on how those early experiences continue to inform Smith’s practice, highlighting photographs—many of which have been printed for the first time—that capture fleeting moments infused with rhythm, intuition, and motion. Smith’s work resists photography’s long-standing impulse to define, document, or objectify Black subjects. Rooted in the core principles of the Black Arts Movement, her photographs expand the medium beyond realism, often confronting and subverting the gaze itself. Her signature use of blur and abstraction is both poetic and political, mimicking the improvisational spirit of jazz while responding to the ways Black Americans are rendered simultaneously invisible and hypervisible. A pioneer for Black women in photography, Smith’s legacy lies in her innovation, her fearless experimentation, and her unwavering commitment to capturing the depth and richness of Black life. —<em>Che Baez</em></p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/2/6/ed6584a9/ming_smith_comp_1.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of the Ming Smith Studios and The Gund at Kenyon College</figcaption></figure><p>Ming Smith: Jazz Requiem–Notations in Blue<i> is on view at the Portland Museum of Art in Portland, Maine from February 6th to June 7th 2026.</i> </p><h2><a href="https://www.instagram.com/gratinnyc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Max Jahn at Gratin</a></h2><p>For the German artist Max Jahn, frames are just as important as the imagery inside of them. As part of his practice, Jahn painstakingly chooses each border for his painted works from his father’s antique shop. They are personal to him—as personal as the colorful portraits he creates, which will be on view in the new show, <em>Time Spent Looking</em>. The exhibition features both portraiture (like <em>Self With Fan</em>, a painting in which Jahn is depicted coyly holding a floral accordion fan to his face) and still life. Jahn paints what he knows; his subjects often come from within his social circle. His relationships with them—and by extension, his depictions of them—are shaped by time and prolonged observation. He paints his sitters for an hour at a time over the course of a week, in varying lights for each session. But his work in self-portraiture arguably features his most familiar subject of all. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/30/a275efdd/install-2.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Installation shot from Time Spent Looking at Gratin, New York. | Photograph by Jason Wyche; Courtesy of Gratin </figcaption></figure><p>Hailing from Berlin and growing up in the aftermath of German reunification in the ’90s, Jahn was raised with the ghosts of a different era. He spent time at his father’s antique store on Motzstrasse, in the heart of the Schöneberg neighborhood, where painters and poets ruled before the Second World War. Otto Dix, the Dutch Masters he studied at school, Balthus, and more combine to create Jahn’s own signature style, now on display in his first solo show in New York.  </p><p>Time Spent Looking <em>runs from January 29 to Match 2026 at Gratin New York. </em></p><h2><a href="https://www.moma.org/calendar/exhibitions/5867" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Samora Pinderhughes at MoMA</a></h2><p>Multidisciplinary artist and composer Samora Pinderhughes centers his work on one urgent question: “What if we built a world around healing rather than punishment?” In <em>Call and Response</em>, a new exhibition at MoMA on view through February 15, 2026, Pinderhughes beckons audiences to ponder this inquiry alongside him. The show comprises two core components including a two-channel film created with Christian Padron, <em>REAL TALK</em>,<em> </em>which examines the impact of absence on families whose loved ones are incarcerated. It also features a series of performances and programming developed in collaboration with community organizations in New York City.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/23/d997517c/sequence-0200_08_23_04still058-2000x1510.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Samora Pinderhughes and Christian Padron, still from REAL TALK, 2025. | Courtesy of the artist.</figcaption></figure><p>With <em>Call and Response</em>, Pinderhughes considers how narratives of criminalization are applied to groups of people to justify violence against them. “As a country, we’re willing to allow basically anything to happen if there’s this illusion that it will protect us from [who]ever is deemed criminal,” the artist said. The show is part of his stint as the 2025 Adobe Creative Resident at MoMA, and builds upon his work as a creator of The Healing Project, a community arts organization founded in the spirit of prison abolition. It also underscores Pinderhughes’s commitment to unearthing how art, particularly collective sonic practices, might contribute to collective healing and liberation. —<em>Daria S.

His work, moving across sculpture, textile, ceramics and video, explores themes of violence and the impacts of social norms while remaining autobiographical. His fashion line, S.R. Studio L.A.C.A., echoes his love of craft and feels very much due after years of lending inspiration for designers like his close friend Raf Simons. On January 30, the Los Angeles-based multihyphenate will present his first solo show in several years, running until March 28. Ruby’s new work, titled <em>Atropa</em> for the nightshade herb known for its deadly quality, is inspired by the duality of the deeply poisonous yet medicinal plant and the mythology that surrounds it. The Greeks associated the genus with the cutter of the thread of life. Ruby uses it as a launch pad for stirring watercolor collages, bronze flowers, and graphite pen-and-ink studies that switch between decay and vibrant bloom. As in all of Ruby’s work, material exploration is at the heart of the show. So are themes of mortality. An as usual, the exhibition is not to be missed.<strong> </strong>—<em>A.S.</em></p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/14/22f6678d/sterling-ruby-9061-original.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Sterling Ruby, DRFTRS (9061), 2025. | © Sterling Ruby, courtesy of the artist and Sprüth Magers.

Early self-portraits, <em>Self-Portrait/Cutting</em> and <em>Self-Potrait/Pervert</em> display incredible tenderness, giving viewers the opportunity to lay down assumptions and connect with Opie’s community with equal depth. Over three decades later, the seminal artist will present the first major museum exhibition of her work in the U.K. at The National Portrait Gallery, from March 5 to May 31. <em>Catherine Opie: To Be Seen </em>will explore intimacy, home, and family—the personal and the political—through the photographer’s images of these communities, surfers, high school footballers, and more.

One extensive land art project saw mystics and scientists lending expertise as Humeau brought to life 84 sculptures that could survive the climate apocalypse on land deemed unfarmable. Another gave Cleopatra a reborn voice as she sang in the nine extinct languages she was recorded to know. Now, Humeau will open a solo show for the first time at White Cube’s New York gallery. Open from January 16 to February 21, the exhibition blends stalactite-like and bat-shaped sculptures with works on paper, all inspired by a trip to a bat cave in West Papua. As in the case of previous work, the cave is not just a cave, but rather a metaphor for the unknown and the unnamable. Pastel drawings mimic prehistoric cave drawings. Stalagmite and stalactite sculptures help us navigate our precarious environment. The pieces reference John Koenig’s <em>The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows</em> (2021): can Humeau’s sculptures give emotion to words we have yet to invent? Her new work certainly makes us feel.<strong> </strong>—<em>A.S.</em></p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/14/5c7b83c4/m-humeau.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Marguerite Humeau, Stillenary (The Guardian of the Emergence) (detail) | © Marguerite Humeau © White Cube (Theo Christelis)</figcaption></figure><h2><a href="https://www.listasafn.is/en/art/exhibitions/bjork/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Björk at the National Gallery of Iceland</a></h2><p>The public will experience a different side of the perennial musical enigma Björk when she returns to her native Iceland to stage a new art exhibition at the country’s National Gallery. <em>Echolalia, </em>as the show is called, is comprised of three immersive installations, the first of which will provide the public with a peek into the artist’s upcoming album. The two other works, <em>Ancestress</em> and <em>Sorrowful Soil,</em> both honor Björk’s mother, environmental activist Hildur Rúna Hauksdóttir, who passed away in 2018. While these pieces were originally released with Björk’s 2022 album, <em>Fossora</em>, their presentation at the museum will allow for a more theatrical experience. <em>Ancestress</em>, specifically, features a film set in a remote valley in Iceland where a ritualistic procession is taking place. Björk and her son, Sindri Eldon, star—with contributions from filmmaker Andrew Thomas Huang and James Merry, Björk’s co–creative director and the designer of the masks and ritual objects worn in the video. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/5/3fe1d2cf/bjork-2025-cvidar-logi.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Björk, 2025 | © Viðar Logi</figcaption></figure><p>Those especially interested in Merry’s work will have the opportunity to stop by his show, <em>Metamorphlings</em>, running simultaneously with <em>Echolalia</em> at the National Gallery.

Through painting, video, textiles, neons, writing, sculpture, and installation, Emin has long challenged society’s view of the female body, as well as the line between public and personal. She did this most notably with her 1998 piece, <em>My Bed</em>, using the conversation that sparked around this controversial piece to further challenge the definition of art at the turn of the 21st century.

Like much of Flavin’s fluorescent lamp-based pieces, the grids simultaneously highlight and redefine every space in which they’re installed. This latest exhibition features Flavin’s first two grids:<em> untitled (for Mary Ann and Hal with fondest regards)</em> <em>1 </em>and <em>2. </em>Both created in 1976, they will be installed at Zwirner identically to their debut at the Otis Art Institute Gallery, Los Angeles, where they sat kitty-corner to one another in a single room.

I don’t use it every day, mind you, only in winter and summer when my lips tend to get extra-dry. —<em>Maryam Lieberman, Contributing Beauty Editor</em></p><div><a href="https://go.skimresources.com?id=86205X1637188&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rhodeskin.com%2Fproducts%2Fpeptide-lip-boost-unscented"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/c1f746f9/rhodee.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Rhode Peptide Lip Boost</h3></a></div><p>This is one of my favorites because it’s substantial.

At 38 Orchard Street, you’ll find the Charlap Hyman &amp; Herrero–designed space, which features limewashed walls and oxblood-tiled floors. After a stroll through the art-filled boutique, I went home with this incredible lip product, which enriches with plant-based ingredients to provide extra nourishment, hydration, and elasticity.

No. 303 is moisturizing, shiny, and sleek without being too sticky, and best of all, it smells delicious—even without any artificial fragrance or colorants. (It’s also not tested on animals.) More to love: the slanted-tip applicator, the soft matte feel of the bottle itself, and the fact that it can be worn both under and over lipstick. —<em>Claire Valentine McCartney</em></p><div><a href="https://go.skimresources.com?id=86205X1637188&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fus.sulwhasoo.com%2Fproducts%2Fperfecting-lip-color"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/6/961d3d69/sulwahsoo.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Sulwhasoo Perfecting Lip Color</h3></a></div><p>K-beauty has always been a step ahead, and Sulwhasoo’s wrinkle-targeting tinted lip balm is no exception.

Nearly two decades after the original film first strutted into theaters, a sequel is headed to theaters, even if Anne Hathaway <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xT_nZUjPk-Y" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">once</a> completely swore off the possibility. </p><p>The follow-up has been a topic of discussion for years now—really, since the original came out in the mid-aughts—and has received varying degrees of excitement from its stars. But in 2024, Hathaway and co-star Stanley Tucci confirmed the official announcement with an Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DLh-bBep6w2/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;ig_rid=0bd0bcd8-be47-437f-b150-23a16ad38f07" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">post</a> memorializing some of the original film’s most quotable lines. Later, Hathaway <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@annehathaway/video/7529456632208608543" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">posted a TikTok</a> saying that she was heading to “werk.” Her outfit of choice? A knit sweater in cerulean blue, of course.</p><p>Last summer, photographers caught Hathaway during her first day on set. Holding onto what appeared to be a newspaper, she wore a long, ankle-length skirt in light denim, black open-toe sandals, and a white tank top. Coupled with the pinstripe suit set shared to Instagram, it looks like Andy Sachs is leaning into her “Office Siren” side. (<em>And Just Like That...</em> designer Molly Rogers—who also worked under Patricia Field on the first film—will be behind the film’s costumes.)</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2025/7/21/421602c3/blu_a109005805.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Christopher Peterson</figcaption></figure><p>Here, everything to know about <em>The Devil Wears Prada 2</em>:</p><h3>What is <em>The Devil Wears Prada</em> 2 about?</h3><p>It’s an understatement to say a lot has changed in the magazine industry since 2006—the days of expense accounts and black cars are long gone. <em>The Devil Wears Prada 2</em> will certainly lean into that difference and is set in the cutthroat world of modern digital media, with a wiser (and older) Miranda Priestly at the tail end of her career.</p><p>According to <a href="https://variety.com/2025/film/news/devil-wears-prada-2-may-2026-dog-stars-1236064250/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"><em>Variety</em></a>, the sequel “follows Priestly as she navigates her career amid the decline of traditional magazine publishing and as she faces off against Blunt’s character, now a high-powered executive for a luxury group with advertising dollars that Priestly desperately needs.”</p><p>This diverges from <em>Revenge Wears Prada: The Devil Returns</em>, Lauren Weisberger’s sequel to the original novel. That story centers on Andy Sachs's wedding, now the EIC of a bridal magazine. </p><p>Given that Anna Wintour, whom Miranda has always been rumored to be based on, recently stepped down from her role as Editor in Chief of American <em>Vogue </em>after 37 years (though not from <em>Vogue</em> entirely), the timing of the film couldn’t be better.</p><h3>Is there a <em>Devil Wears Prada 2</em> trailer?</h3><p>The final trailer for <em>The Devil Wears Prada 2</em> was released on April 6, and gives the most insight into the plot yet. Miranda is going through some sort of scandal, and Andy can either help her through it or use the moment to write a tell-all exposé about her old boss. It’s soundtracked by a new original song, “Runway,” by Lady Gaga and Doechii. Watch below:</p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/PMd1at7OwiE" data-videoid="PMd1at7OwiE" class="TVx"></iframe><p>On March 12, 2026, a new teaser dropped that sees Miranda show up at a sleeping Andy’s apartment and demand that she get back to work, just like old times. At the end of the clip, the <em>Runway</em> boss delivers a vaguely inappropriate line about a photoshoot gone wrong, prompting her younger workers (Simone Ashley, for one) to cringe in embarrassment.</p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/iVKa2g1S6_s" data-videoid="iVKa2g1S6_s" class="TVx"></iframe><p>The first official trailer for the film dropped on February 1, 2026 and features Andy returning to visit Miranda and Nigel at the <em>Runway</em> offices, where Miranda appears not to recognize (or at least to acknowledge) her former assistant. Watch below:</p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/e9HXmMnUEdE" data-videoid="e9HXmMnUEdE" class="TVx"></iframe><p>The first <em>DWP2</em> teaser was released on November 12, 2025. While not an official trailer, it still gave fans a glimpse of Andy and Miranda 2.0. It starts with a view of Miranda’s heels (Valentino, surprisingly) as she struts her way through the <em>Runway</em> office to an elevator. Once inside, she’s greeted by her former employee. “Miranda,” Andy says to the frosty fashionista. “Took you long enough,” she replies.</p><p>Aptly soundtracked to Madonna’s “Vogue,” the short teaser also features short looks at scenery from the film, including a photoshoot fitting and the cameo-filled Met Gala moment.</p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/9c-DrMe8o5Q" data-videoid="9c-DrMe8o5Q" class="TVx"></iframe><h3>Will Adrian Grenier return as Nate?</h3><p>No, Grenier will not be returning as Andy’s college boyfriend, sous-chef Nate Cooper, <a href="https://ew.com/devil-wears-prada-sequel-adrian-grenier-not-returning-11763994" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"><em>Entertainment Weekly</em> confirmed</a>. Even though the original film ends with Hathaway’s Andy choosing her personal life over work as she chucks her work phone into a fountain in Paris (and then has breakfast with Nate, who says he’ll be pursuing <em>his</em> dream of becoming a chef in Boston), it’s still hard to imagine she and Nate would have stayed together forever. </p><p>And though Nate was originally received as a victim of Andy’s ambition, that reading of the film hasn’t aged well, and both fans and Grenier himself have since agreed that Nate, with his insecure neediness, was the actual villain of the film.</p><p>In a previous interview with <em>EW</em>, Grenier said, “When that whole thing [about Nate being the ‘real villain’ of the film] first came out, I couldn’t get my head around it. I didn’t understand it. Perhaps it was because I wasn’t mature as a man, just as Nate probably could’ve used a little growing up. I was just as immature as him at the time, so I couldn’t see his shortcomings, but, after taking time to reflect and much deliberation online, I can realize the truth in that perspective.”</p><h3>Who else is in <em>The Devil Wears Prada</em> <em>2</em> cast?</h3><p><em>Bridgerton </em>fan-favorite Simone Ashley plays Miranda’s newest assistant. The rest of the cast is rounded out by a slew of characters, played by both famous faces and newcomers, including: Lucy Liu, Justin Theroux, B.J. Novak, Pauline Chalamet, Broadway stars Helen J. Shen (“Maybe Happy Ending”) and Conrad Ricamora (“Oh, Mary!”), and comedian Caleb Hearon.</p><p>Two other characters will be returning, too: Tracie Thoms will reprise her role as Andy’s best friend, Lily, and Tibor Feldman, who played the chairman of <em>Runway’s</em> parent company, will also be back.</p><h3>When will <em>The Devil Wears Prada</em> <em>2</em> be released?</h3><p><em>The Devil Wears Prada</em> <em>2</em> hits theaters May 1, 2026.</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rihanna Steps Out In Paris With an It Bag With Quite the Backstory]]></title><description><![CDATA[Rihanna and A$AP Rocky brought their signature edgy couple's style to Paris.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/rihanna-asap-rocky-paris-dracula-bag</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/rihanna-asap-rocky-paris-dracula-bag</guid><pubDate>Mon, 06 Apr 2026 16:21:42 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Aaron Royce]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/6/b54ddaac/paris-france-april-4.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/6/b54ddaac/paris-france-april-4.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>FJLON3/Mega/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Date-night dressing pros Rihanna and A$AP Rocky stepped out for dinner last night in Paris at Siena Restaurant on the same page. Both opted for chic monotone looks, with one high-fashion-contrast exception.</p><p>Rihanna combined maroon and burgundy tones to create a vampy casual outfit. Her look included a utilitarian set of Alaïa cargo pants, layered with a long-sleeve technical fabric top and a distressed short-sleeve sweater for a grungy skater edge. A pair of python-textured Tom Ford pumps continued her longtime love of <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/rihanna-denim-jacket-jeans-fur-scarf-heels-new-york">sleek statement heels</a>. </p><p>For a vibrant burst of color, she accessorized with Dior’s bright yellow <em>Dracula</em> Saddle bag. The literary piece added a defiant pop to her more subdued outfit while remaining bold and luxe—after all, the in-demand handbag is already sold out. For his debut Dior collection, creative director Jonathan Anderson reimagined the house’s best-selling book totes by incorporating the book covers of classic novels by authors like Truman Capote, Gustave Flaubert, and Choderlos de Laclos, though his Bram Stoker’s <em>Dracula</em>-embroidered styles have proven exceptionally popular. So popular, it seems, that he’s extended the design to other bag silhouettes. </p><p></p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/6/5c71e4a5/paris-france-april-4.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>FJLON3/Mega/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>While unexpected, Rihanna’s Dior handbag choice was ultimately a no-brainer.  In fact, Rihanna first stepped out in Paris last fall with the collection’s <em>Dracula</em>-embroidered Book tote, making the Saddle bag outing her latest fashion affair with the vibrant and vampiric designs. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/6/1ecdb850/paris-france-june-27.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Arnold Jerocki/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Meanwhile, <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/asap-rocky-rihanna-cover-interview">A$AP Rocky</a> took a darker route in an all-black look fit for an actual vampire. The musician and fashion designer, who released his album <em>Don’t Be Dumb</em> earlier this year, wore a silky black trenchcoat covered in an intricate spotted pattern. The piece was belted over a black button-up shirt with jacquard trim, subtly mixing textures within a singular color palette. His look was complete with diamond stud earrings and dark Ray-Ban sunglasses, a natural fit as he’s the eyewear brand’s creative director.</p><p>Though their outfits featured distinctly different colors and silhouettes, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky were hardly on opposing pages. Each star’s look emphasized their individual styles while remaining experimental and cutting-edge—a pattern that’s continued whether they’re <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/rihanna-asap-rocky-statement-coats-new-york-city">braving frigid winter weather</a> or attending the <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/rihanna-skirt-suit-pregnant-baby-bump-met-gala-2025">Met Gala</a>.

Here are 14 of our favorites, which you’ll surely see everywhere come September.</p><h2>Building a Wardrobe</h2><p>For his final collection at Alaïa, Pieter Mulier stressed that his goal was to “create real clothes.” Turns out, he wasn’t the only one for the fall 2026 season: Celine, Loro Piana, Ralph Lauren, and many more focused on an approach to fashion design we’re calling “wardrobe dressing.” The look is less about fully styled, head-to-toe fashion, and more about key items that can be mixed into your closet and actually <em>lived in</em>. Prada reinforced the concept via its show format: 15 models repeatedly circled the runway, removing layers of clothing each time they walked.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/0f80ab99/rtw3.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Alaïa, Celine and Prada | From left to right: courtesy of Alaïa; courtesy of Celine; Getty Images</figcaption></figure><h2>Full-Look Policy</h2><p>By contrast, fashion houses like Chanel—whose new designer Matthieu Blazy created a collection that <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/matthieu-blazy-first-chanel-collection-launch-interviews">sold out the day it hit stores</a>—embraced the full look. Both he and Tom Ford’s Haider Ackermann, along with Celine designer Michael Rider, presented pieces that were meant to be worn and styled together. They would look stunning on a lucky celebrity brand ambassador hitting the red carpet. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/9d633f52/rtw7.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Chanel, Celine and Tom Ford | From left to right: Getty Images; courtesy of Celine; courtesy of Tom Ford</figcaption></figure><h2>Think (Faux) Mink</h2><p>Minklike outerwear was everywhere this season: Gucci’s faux-fur coats were weightless in person; and the shearling coats at Valentino, Phoebe Philo, and Toteme were so refined they might as well have been made of mink. The Row offered a rare taste of the real thing with this shaved mink coat.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/86d2a8f4/rtw10.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Valentino, The Row and Gucci | From left to right: Getty Images; courtesy of The Row; courtesy of Gucci</figcaption></figure><h2>The Thrifty Mix</h2><p>Many collections were rooted in mixing, embracing personal style, and buying secondhand. Rather than head-to-toe looks, these are outfits that have been collected over time. Meryll Rogge’s first Marni outing, as well as Conner Ives’s latest, felt sourced directly from London charity shops.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/77840c94/rtw12.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Conner Ives, Marni and Miu Miu | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>Material Girl</h2><p>Designers this season embraced a wealth of new materials to intrigue their fans and followers. The Row had a silk dress presented inside-out, so you could see the threads. At Dior, Jonathan Anderson used houndstooth on a top and slacks to make it look heavy—but in reality, it was an airy wisp of pleated silk. One of Loewe’s models appeared as though they were trapped in a wind tunnel, because the garment they wore was made of rubber. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/c6244bb4/rtw9.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Loewe, Dior and The Row | From left to right: Getty Images (2); courtesy of The Row</figcaption></figure><h2>The Women of Wall Street</h2><p>Following multiple seasons of oversize menswear silhouettes, this season brought a slimmer fit—sharply tailored dark suits appeared at Saint Laurent, Gucci, and Tom Ford. A fresh take for fall could also be found in the styling elements, like hats, coats worn over the shoulders, and a wealth of pinstripes. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/1007bf63/rtw13.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Tom Ford, Gucci and Saint Laurent | From left to right: courtesy of Tom Ford; courtesy of Gucci; Getty Images</figcaption></figure><h2>What’s Your Fetish?</h2><p>Fall 2026 saw elements of “innocence” turned on their heads. Fetishwear crept into details like McQueen’s babydoll top, which was made of body armor. Meanwhile, one of Phoebe Philo’s dresses seemed to be uncovered in all the right places. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/bb6a5f40/rtw6.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Miu Miu, Phoebe Philo and McQueen | From left to right: Getty Images; courtesy of Phoebe Philo; courtesy of McQueen</figcaption></figure><h2>Fancy/Casual</h2><p>A trend from spring 2026 we dubbed the “<a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/statement-skirts-plain-shirt-trend-milan-paris-fashion-week">Statement Skirt, Simple Shirt</a>” formula has morphed into a cheeky play on hodgepodge dressing. Designers are enamored with mixing evening pieces with casual, everyday staples. At Lii and Prada, for instance, sporty jackets were worn with little silk skirts and nubby knits. And Alaïa and Altuzarra paired their evening gowns with peacoats.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/ba4ae6fc/rtw5.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Alaïa, Prada and Altuzarra | From left to right: courtesy of Alaïa; Getty Images; courtesy of Altuzarra</figcaption></figure><h2>Big Animal Print Energy</h2><p>Leopard, and cheetah, and zebra, oh my! Animal prints are officially back. We were especially taken with Balmain’s fierce coat, paired with over-the-knee boots and a ’90s bag.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/b696a2e6/rtw.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Celine, Ralph Lauren and Balmain | From left to right: courtesy of Celine; Getty Images (2)</figcaption></figure><h2>Color Clash</h2><p>Designers took mixing hues to the next level at Loewe, Akris, and more. It turns out, forest green goes with baby pink, navy blue, white <em>and</em> silver (if Mrs. Prada has anything to say about it). The so-called “sin” of pairing pink and orange, meanwhile, got flouted at Louis Vuitton, where models also wore taupe hats and yellow pumps.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/c113d865/rtw4.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Louis Vuitton, Loewe and Prada | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>Weather Alert!</h2><p>There’s no doubt that we will need clothes for extreme temperatures in the near future. These are pieces designed to protect you from hurricanes, tornadoes, and other natural disasters. At Saint Laurent, trenches came in thick swaths of oxblood PVC, and Junya Watanabe’s gilded gown had many uses against the end of the world.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/7db5917e/rtw14.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Loewe, Saint Laurent and Junya Watanabe - | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>Princess and the Pink</h2><p>This year marks the 20th anniversary of Sofia Coppola’s film <em>Marie Antoinette</em>, and we have a feeling more than a few designers were inspired by pastel vibes and let-them-eat-cake excess. Valentino’s Alessandro Michele put lavender and pale pink on a lace evening gown, while Conner Ives’s rosy dress looks just like the one Gwyneth Paltrow wore to the Oscars in 1999. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/01fe8549/rtw11.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Conner Ives, Valentino and Dior | From left to right: Getty Images (3)</figcaption></figure><h2>Indie Sleaze Redux</h2><p>The 2010s are back, 7 For All Mankind designer Nicola Brognano proclaimed with his fall 2026 collection. The creative director’s first outing for the aughts brand centered a Y2K sensibility, and a character loosely based on stars like Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, and Lindsay Lohan. “She’s a rebel, she’s a rich girl,” Brognano said of his muse for the season. “She can go out in the morning and come back the day after, wearing the same outfit, with a Starbucks cup in her hand and a bracelet from the club the night before.” Marc Jacobs’s take was ultraslim, and made the case for bringing back tights and leather shorts.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/4fdeebba/rtw8.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Valentino, 7 for All Mankind and Marc Jacobs | From left to right: Getty Images; courtesy of 7 for All Mankind; courtesy of Marc Jacobs</figcaption></figure><h2>Big-Time Outerwear</h2><p>Coats with bolder-than-bold shoulders, a jacket with a built-in muff—these pieces pushed outerwear to the limit. McQueen’s take on the trend manifested in the form of a feathered shrug worn with a sheer, lacy dress.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/5d889b4d/rtw2.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Hodakova, Louis Vuitton and McQueen | From left to right: Getty Images (2); courtesy of McQueen</figcaption></figure>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lily-Rose Depp and 070 Shake Match in Baggy Low-Rise Jeans]]></title><description><![CDATA[In coordinating denim, the duo put the overdressed, underdressed couples allegations to bed.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/lily-rose-depp-070-shake-matching-jeans-los-angeles</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/lily-rose-depp-070-shake-matching-jeans-los-angeles</guid><pubDate>Fri, 03 Apr 2026 17:41:50 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matthew Velasco]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/e89595b2/bgus_3538425_002.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/e89595b2/bgus_3538425_002.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>SL, Terma / BACKGRID</figcaption></figure><p>They might be called “boyfriend” jeans, but Lily-Rose Depp and 070 Shake are making a strong case that they work for both halves of any couple. Finally putting the <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/lily-rose-depp-vivienne-westwood-date-night-070shake">overdressed, underdressed couple allegations</a> to bed, the stylish duo proved that their styles actually <em>do</em> align—especially when it comes to their tastes in denim.</p><p>Out in Los Angeles, the actor and musician both opted for baggy low-slung jeans that looked straight out of the 2000s. Depp’s dark navy trousers sat low on her hips and had an oversize effect to them, pooling just enough to show off her Isabel Marant moccasins. Shake wore a slightly lighter pair of jeans that featured distressing in the knees. Despite their shared throwback denim sensibility, they couldn’t have gone about styling them more differently.</p><p>Depp took a springtime approach, layering a mint green cardigan with a beige sweater over the top. She toted a suede shoulder bag and finished the look with cat-eye glasses. Shake leaned into the Canadian tuxedo with a jean jacket, styled with a basic white tee and black boots.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/ae548504/bgus_3538425_002.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>SL, Terma / BACKGRID</figcaption></figure><p>Much like Hailey Bieber’s and Justin Bieber’s opposing styles, Depp’s and Shake’s fashion senses (usually) find themselves on opposite ends of the spectrum. </p><p>For starters, Depp has been a Chanel girly almost since birth (her mother, Vanessa Paradis, was a longtime Karl Lagerfeld muse), while Shake was recently named an ambassador for Jonathan Anderson’s Dior. Where Depp favors vintage baby tees, micromini skirts in neon colors, and shoes that look as if she bought from a department store in 2006, Shake is very much in rocker territory. The singer favors moody color palettes and oversize androgynous silhouettes—items that couldn’t be more distant from Depp’s feminine vintage-inspired aesthetic. </p><p>Even in matching denim, their opposing instincts proved that personal style always wins out over matchy-matchy couple style.</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[celebrity style]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why Caramelized Brunette Is the Perfect Between-Seasons Hair Color]]></title><description><![CDATA[How to get the look beloved by Zendaya, Kaia Gerber, Lola Tung, and more.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/beauty/caramelized-brunette-hair-color-products</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/beauty/caramelized-brunette-hair-color-products</guid><pubDate>Fri, 03 Apr 2026 17:10:01 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Michelle Rostamian]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/73e4c6ce/caramel_social.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/73e4c6ce/caramel_social.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><p>Call it the transitional shade that does everything. Caramelized brunette is quickly becoming the go-to in-between color for anyone not quite ready to go lighter, but still craving a shift that feels fresh, dimensional, and expensive. (Just look at Sofia Richie Grainge’s glossy warm-tone shade.) Sitting right between rich brunette and sunlit blonde, caramelized brunette threads warm caramel ribbons through deeper bases to mimic the kind of natural lift you’d get after a few weeks in the sun.</p><p>Below, we tapped <a href="https://infinitycreativeagency-dot-yamm-track.appspot.com/2r0kj2IDCxgR3PBMRfdS6NT1kf_Obb8R7wtr8xjGTzWzQaxrfnAH6j_PpTaL31UM76jYN_uwtRJbstWqvB-ObzXAz5zxQrQj94Ou8BThZL2RePvlaUPOV9LnxHFFvAkuDiX8yx43bKIZkZpKLRpN8DB4wU_w-1Tb8gg7gFm3z9wWrZX0SIGYUWtVtEPjg2vdMLFZGkrDr" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Jess Gonzalez</a>, lead colorist at <a href="https://infinitycreativeagency-dot-yamm-track.appspot.com/25p60AL_sTfJxCESh6r_STuHpyyNc17IU89zYOIV8hKzNaxrfnAGM9UX8LNPcXQQJtx0eC5OrN2yo2EP9iqqhF88jWRz6Wa4es8Iwetmm613uILd3r_PM0CcV4vNStvxUsAEnfyHceCxthwb7e5nraDqH14nu1hhHCpmWDxzaaZ-ZXQzMOyOxI9z7IHhSbz-GAj6UwXs" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Flore Los Angeles</a>, to break down exactly why this shade is taking over—and how to make it work for your hair type and routine.</p><h2>What is caramelized brunette?</h2><p>“Caramelized brunette is a rich, dimensional brunette infused with soft golden and amber tones that mimic the warmth of caramel,” says Gonzalez. “It feels glossy, lived-in, and elevated—never flat or overly highlighted.” What makes this shade different from traditional warm brunettes or balayage is the intention behind the placement. “It’s more refined and blended than traditional warm brunettes, with less contrast than classic balayage,” notes Gonzales, who says the tones are intentionally melted together to create a seamless, almost “lit-from-within” warmth rather than obvious highlights.</p><p>Caramelized brunette is an ideal transition shade between seasons because it mirrors what naturally happens to your hair this time of year. As the weather warms up, sunlight subtly lifts brunette tones, creating that soft dimension—and caramelized brunette taps into that effect without needing a full color overhaul. It brightens just enough to feel seasonal, but still keeps depth at the root, so it doesn’t feel like a drastic shift coming out of winter. “This shade refreshes the hair after winter while still feeling grounded and low-maintenance going into warmer months,” says Gonzalez.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/feda526d/649837980_18582351697048413_282544995684239918_n.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>@sofiagrainge</figcaption></figure><h2>For whom does caramelized brunette work best?</h2><p>“Caramelized brunette is incredibly versatile, but it’s an especially flattering shade on neutral-to-warm skin tones and natural brunettes who want brightness without committing to blonde,” Gonzalez says. Because the warmth can be adjusted from soft honey to deeper toffee, it can complement a wide range of skin tones without washing you out. If your hair feels flat or one-dimensional, those diffused caramel tones instantly add movement and light without looking streaky. It’s also a strong option for anyone growing out old highlights or color—because the blend is so seamless, it helps blur harsh lines and makes everything look intentional again.</p><p>Caramelized brunette works across virtually every hair type too. On fine hair, those soft caramel ribbons create the illusion of depth and movement, making strands seem fuller and more voluminous without requiring heavy styling. When it comes to thicker hair, the look helps break up density so the color doesn’t feel too heavy, adding lightness and flow throughout.</p><p>It’s especially flattering on wavy and curly textures, where the warmth catches along bends and coils. Even on straight hair, the subtle tonal shifts keep the color from falling flat. And the glossy reflective finish feels polished and expensive.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/3/66ef64ca/gettyimages-2268794834.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Zendaya at Good Morning America on April 1, 2026. | Getty Images</figcaption></figure><h2>How to style and maintain</h2><p>Styling caramelized brunette is all about enhancing the dimension you already have. Gonzalez recommends going for styles with movement, like loose waves, soft layers, or a blown-out finish. “The color comes alive when the hair catches light and has natural flow,” she adds. To enhance the shine, use a lightweight oil or glossing serum on the ends and style with soft bends rather than tight curls.</p><div><a href="https://go.skimresources.com?id=86205X1637188&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bergdorfgoodman.com%2Fp%2F14th-night-2-oz-hair-elixir-prod176260006%3Futm_source%3Dgoogle_shopping%26ecid%3DBGCS_GL_CV_NC_PR_NONE%26gad_source%3D1%26gclid%3DCj0KCQjw782_BhDjARIsABTv_JBlC9gUn6QX_73cwcVymz7mEu0tKjj-B0lHQgKgYcYfYUGbs_9OfdYaArDmEALw_wcB%26gclsrc%3Daw.ds"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2025/4/7/6b7ca06e/14thnight.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>14th Night Hair Elixir</h3></a></div><p>Maintenance is refreshingly low-key. Because the color is diffused and blended, grow-out is much softer than traditional highlights, meaning fewer urgent salon visits. To keep the tone looking rich and not brassy, use a color-safe sulfate-free shampoo and consider a gloss or toner every few weeks. Hydration is key too—weekly masks or hair-strengthening treatments (like <a href="https://www.violetgrey.com/products/repair-treatment?variant=50425024708912" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">Filament’s Tensile Strength Hair Treatment Mask</a>) will keep the hair looking shiny and healthy.</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[beauty]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Barbie Ferreira’s Best Fashion Moments Are Pure Euphoria]]></title><description><![CDATA[From nude dresses to nipped-in corsets, the star isn't afraid to take risks on the red carpet.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/barbie-ferreira-best-red-carpet-fashion-dresses-photos</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/barbie-ferreira-best-red-carpet-fashion-dresses-photos</guid><pubDate>Fri, 03 Apr 2026 15:34:37 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[W Staff]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/2/b5bc80c0/hollywood-california-march-15.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/2/b5bc80c0/hollywood-california-march-15.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Frazer Harrison/WireImage/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Barbie Ferreira captured hearts in <em>Euphoria</em> as the fan-fiction-writing Kat Hernandez, with a wardrobe full of latex minis, mesh tops, and Internet alter egos.

Like Kat, she embraces bold, often neon, colors and unexpected styling combinations, like a sheer layered corset worn with a floral skirt. There’s also a more glamorous, timeless side to Ferreira, perhaps best evidenced by the dramatic GapStudio ball gown by Zac Posen that she wore to the 2026 Oscars. Though Ferreira has since departed <em>Euphoria</em>, her career has kept her on the red carpet, with buzzy projects like <em>Nope</em>, <em>Mile End Kicks</em>, and the 2026 remake of cult classic <em>Faces of Death</em>. </p><p>Here, take in Ferreira’s best red carpet style from <em>Euphoria</em> until now.</p><h2>2026: Academy Awards</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/2/30dda384/hollywood-california-march-15.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Emma McIntyre/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Ferreira brought Americana glamour to the Oscars in a custom GapStudio dress by Zac Posen.</p><h2>2026: SXSW</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/2/76eb9071/austin-texas-march-12.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Nicola Gell/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>In a nude illusion lace dress with flesh-tone underpinnings, she did her version of naked dressing.</p><h2>2025: Toronto Film Festival</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/2/dc0230c3/toronto-ontario-september-04.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Rodin Eckenroth/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Another naked dress came at the Toronto Film Festival in 2025, where Ferreira wore a semisheer design with a black bustier.</p><h2>2025: Fashion Trust U.S Awards</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/2/5c89b291/barbie-ferreira-at-the.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>River Callaway/WWD/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>The actor’s bright Simkhai dress featured a plunging neckline with thin spaghetti straps.</p><h2>2024: Swarovski Exhibition Opening</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/2/26b714d9/barbie-ferreira-at-the.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>WWD/WWD/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>She glistened at a Swarovski event in a liquid metal dress and matching cape.</p><h2>2024: SXSW</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/2/03e012a2/barbie-ferreira-at-the.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Errich Petersen/SXSW Conference &amp;

Thankfully for Selena Gomez, her latest outfit came with the jewelry included.</p><p>Celebrating the launch of Rare Beauty's True To Myself foundation in Los Angeles last night, Gomez stepped out in a formal twist on the T-shirt dress. From <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/prada-spring-2026-runway-show-photos">Prada’s spring 2026 runway show</a>, the design riffed on a boxy tee with purpose. It featured a satin pink base, complete with pockets and exposed seaming, layered with a white underpinning. The latter detail poked out from the neckline and hem of the dress. Cleverly, the look also came with a discreet detail that eliminated the need for added jewelry all together.</p><p>A textured, embroidered collar was placed along the dress’s neckline, creating the effect of a built-in diamond necklace. Gomez did, however, add separate accessories that weren’t originally shown on the Prada runway. She wore silver hoop earrings and white sling backs that tied in the color of her dress.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/3/344d28fa/west-hollywood-california-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Stefanie Keenan/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/3/0be65cfe/milan-italy-september-25.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Victor VIRGILE/Gamma-Rapho/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Prada’s Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons crafted “a response to the overload of contemporary culture—a process of distillation, of filtration through clothes” for their spring 2026 show, called the <em>Body of Composition. </em>That inspiration manifested in boiler suits paired with rubber gloves and minimal leather jackets worn with beaded collar dresses like Gomez’s.

After days of teasing the final act in her installment of <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/zendaya-the-drama-press-fashion-photos">themed press looks</a>, the star stepped out to the New York premiere <em>The Drama</em> last night in a look that brought her red carpet bridal theme to a high-fashion crescendo.</p><p>Zendaya’s finale dress hailed from Schiaparelli’s spring 2026 couture collection shown during Paris Fashion Week. Against a stark black base, the dress achieved its “something blue” with bursts of thousands of ombré handmade silk “feathers” along the bustier and skirt. The silhouette was also something to marvel at. The drop-waist design featured a nipped-in corset bodice that flowed into a tiered ball skirt with a slight train.</p><p>Never ones to miss the details, Zendaya and Law Roach styled the dress with a trio of apt blue accessories. She wore cerulean eyeshadow, surreal high heels with feathers mimicking those found on her dress, and diamond and sapphire jewels by Tiffany &amp; Co. She finished the ensemble with a nude lip and slicked-back wet-look hair.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/3/bb3da10c/new-york-new-york.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Cindy Ord/WireImage/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Following the premiere, Zendaya had one last “something blue” trick up her sleeve—with a decidedly after-hours twist.</p><p>Leaning into naked dressing, the star wore a sheer Di Petsa gown in an elegant midnight blue color. Up top, the mesh bodice was completely see-through and had winding rope details, while the skirt was simple in structure. She traded her bird-shaped heels for a simple navy pair and kept her hair and makeup constant throughout the evening. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/3/544c6e0a/new-york-new-york.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Aeon/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Playing off of the adage “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue,” Zendaya has gone all-in on narrative dressing with her <em>Drama </em>press looks.

The actor has leaned fully into wedding-coded dressing, whether it be corsetry, trailing bows, or gowns that wouldn’t look out of place walking down an aisle. It’s a fashion narrative that feels almost too pointed to ignore, especially as whispers about her real-life engagement continue to circulate online. That is, if you don’t take into account Zendaya’s penchant for themed dressing: <em>The Drama, </em>starring Zendaya and Robert Pattinson, follows a couple whose relationship unravels just days before their wedding.</p><p>Not only channeling bridal tradition, Zendaya and her stylist and Image Architect Law Roach are building a full-fledged fashion narrative. They’re riffing on the Victorian-era wedding adage “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue,” at the film’s various premieres. (It started with a re-worn vintage Vivienne Westwood at the L.A. premiere, followed by custom Louis Vuitton and Armani Privé, before ultimately finishing with a “something blue” Schiaparelli dress for the ages.)</p><p>Whether she’s poking at the speculation or merely playing into the fantasy, no one is doing red carpet dressing quite Zendaya.

Either way, the internet has gone all in on ’90s nostalgia. Nowhere was it felt more acutely than on the fall 2026 runways. After seasons dominated by early-aughts references, designers and style stars have shifted their focus to a new (old) decade to mine and reinterpret. From the era’s signature minimalism—think Calvin Klein, Helmut Lang, and Prada—to lace slip dresses, boudoir dressing, and zigzag headbands made famous by Alicia Silverstone as <em>Clueless’</em>s Cher Horowitz and Keira Knightley in <em>Bend it Like Beckham</em>, the latest collections offer a modern take on the codes that made the Clinton-era aesthetic so recognizable—and endlessly remixable. We’ve broken them down below.</p><h2><strong>Major Minimalism</strong></h2><p>With established brands like Kallmeyer, Toteme, and The Row, as well as newcomers Colleen Allen and Ashlyn, at the top of the style matrix, it’s no surprise that minimalism is back and better than ever. However, there is a particular kind of ’90s twist on minimalism that rose to the forefront of the runways and the red carpet this season. Marc Jacobs cited ’90s Helmut Lang, Prada, Calvin Klein (Bessette Kennedy’s former employer), and his own past work as references for his fall 2026 collection, which consisted of slim pencil skirts, button-down shirts, and jackets cut close to the body.</p><p>As a whole, it was considered a departure from Jacobs’s past few shows, where he played with exaggerated proportions and scale. The same could be said for some of the most celebrated red carpet dressing of the season, where, in place of dramatic ballgowns and dresses with trains, were more streamlined silhouettes. Case in point: <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/emma-stone-red-carpet-style-fashion">Emma Stone’s</a> extremely simple Louis Vuitton gowns at both the Actor Awards and the Oscars, and Bella Hadid’s satin, two-piece Prada set at the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/30/7a5cebbf/90slooks3.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Looks from Marc Jacobs fall 2026. | Courtesy of Marc Jacobs</figcaption></figure><h2><strong>Give ’Em The Slip</strong></h2><p>On the topic of red carpet dressing, stars who didn’t get the minimalism memo (Zoe Saldaña in Saint Laurent at the Oscars, Jenna Ortega and Gwyneth Paltrow in Christian Cowan and Givenchy at the Actor Awards) opted for lingerie dressing, which was another ’90s throwback that came to life during the fall 2026 season. Slip dresses were everywhere—in latex at Loewe, paired with snakeskin gloves and ponyhair boots at Khaite, and shown under leather moto jackets at Zadig et Voltaire. Each of these looks had its own sensibility, but the ’90s cool-girl vibe, exuding an “I woke up like this” mentality, was the thread that tied them all together, whether on the runway or in real life.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/30/042ce57e/90slooks2.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: looks from Zadig and Voltaire, Loewe, and Khaite fall 2026. | From left to right: Getty Images; Go Runway courtesy of Loewe; Courtesy of Khaite.</figcaption></figure><h2><strong>It’s All Gucci</strong></h2><p>Perhaps the loudest testament to the ’90s was Demna’s debut runway show for Gucci. Not only did the collection as a whole nod to the Gucci-est of Gucci-isms often linked to its Tom Ford era—think sexy mini dresses, sky-high stilettos, skinny suiting, low-rise leggings with cutouts, and even a gown with a built-in G-string (on ’90s queen herself, Kate Moss)—the house’s iconic GG logo (which also reigned supreme during that time) appeared on belt bags, shoes, tights and a pencil skirt worn by supermodel-slash-media-mogul Karlie Kloss. This type of maximalist minimalism, popularized by Mr. Ford’s risqué campaigns and greatest hits for the Italian house, was on full display, although twisted through a Demna lens.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/30/e13fd72f/90slooks.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Looks from Gucci fall 2026. | Courtesy of Gucci</figcaption></figure><h2><strong>Good Sports</strong></h2><p>On a more casual note, the season also saw designers tapping into their sporty sides with minimalist sportswear in technical fabrics that can be traced back to the ’90s. In London, Simone Rocha debuted a collaboration with Adidas, which consisted of remixed track-style tops and pants accented with the classic three-stripe design, while New York darling Zane Li of LII showed a modern take on athleisure with colorful anoraks and zip-up sweatshirts that call to mind something Sporty Spice would have worn while on tour with the Spice Girls.</p><p>But it was Miuccia Prada’s Miu Miu that really drove the sporty point home, with a handful of looks consisting of low-rise, slightly flared trousers and cropped jackets reminiscent of sister brand Prada’s beloved nylon styles that peaked 30 years ago. To top it all off, Mrs. Prada decorated a majority of the models with retro, zig-zag headbands. Among those donning the hair accessory that was once spotted on nearly everyone who attended the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards were ’90s It-girl Chloe Sevigny and star of the time period’s hit television series <em>The X-Files</em>, Gillian Anderson.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/c21169ca/90slooks4.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>From left to right: Looks from Lii, Simone Rocha and Miu Miu fall 2026. | Images via Getty</figcaption></figure>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[How Zendaya's Outfits in 'The Drama' Reveal Her Character's Secrets]]></title><description><![CDATA[From oversized basics to a deceptively simple wedding dress, every look traces a woman trying not to be seen.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/zendaya-the-drama-outfits-wedding-dress-shop</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/zendaya-the-drama-outfits-wedding-dress-shop</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 Apr 2026 20:25:02 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Fawnia Soo Hoo]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/2/af5cbdfa/avpc_r3_rec709_g24_3996x2160_0263419.jpeg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/2/af5cbdfa/avpc_r3_rec709_g24_3996x2160_0263419.jpeg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Robert Pattinson and Zendaya in 'The Drama.' Photo courtesy A24</figcaption></figure><p><strong>Warning: Spoilers ahead for <em>The Drama</em></strong></p><p>In <em>The Drama</em>, A24’s provocative new rom-com, Emma (Zendaya) throws her relationship and impending wedding into crisis after a drunken game of “What’s the worst thing you’ve ever done?” with friends. To the shock of her straight-laced fiancé, Charlie (Robert Pattinson), she confesses to a dark plan she once considered as a bullied, isolated, and depressed teen. Now a literary editor, Emma rarely talks about her past, but her understated wardrobe—oversize silhouettes in somber hues—hints at her traumatic childhood.</p><p>“She’s trying so hard to fit in, even as an adult. She’s not looking to stand out—she just wants to blend in and not rock the boat,” says A24’s <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/dakota-johnson-materialists-wardrobe-style-shop">go-to costume designer</a> Katina Danabassis. “She doesn’t really have many friends, and it’s still a challenge for her.”</p><p>But Emma and Charlie, a museum curator, find an immediate connection after a coffee shop meet-cute. Their ruggedly urban “gorpcore” aesthetic reflects their lives as young Boston creative professionals, while also channeling director Kristoffer Borgli’s offbeat—if not unsettling—sensibility, hinting at the tension to come.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/2/1d949692/apartment.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photo courtesy A24</figcaption></figure><p>“I had this ‘dark academia thing’ going that was extremely on the nose, but in a relevant, appropriate way,” says Danabassis, also referring to Charlie’s vintage Eddie Bauer parka and grungy plaid shirts. “There’s a loose, effortless naturalism that runs through the story—it needed to feel lived-in, real, and true.”</p><p>Emma drops her bombshell during a tasting at their stately wedding venue with Charlie’s best man, Mike (Mamoudou Athie), and his wife, Rachel (Alana Haim), also Emma’s matron of honor. For the celebratory occasion, Emma wears an unexpected yet very true-to-herself outfit: a slouchy navy sweatshirt by The Great paired with the low-slung nylon 6397 maxiskirt she wore to their first dance rehearsal earlier.</p><p>“We just were like, ‘What's the effortless choice that is also off-kilter?” asks Danabassis.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/2/9d40c81b/a24thedrama_usatoday_exclusive.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photo courtesy A24</figcaption></figure><div><a href="https://6397news.com/products/gathered-skirt-in-black?gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=22369536849&amp;gbraid=0AAAAACPOg82Rp2N4hph03ZikWIplvNsdt&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwp7jOBhDGARIsABe7C4cUgBSOpVNWniaVR7Bn7Ia8PXo2FAGJUdv090-b566KBEwW-h4dCkoaAhK6EALw_wcB"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/2/9939fa98/ns122_black.webp?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Gathered Skirt</h3></a><a href="https://6397news.com/products/gathered-skirt-in-black?gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=22369536849&amp;gbraid=0AAAAACPOg82Rp2N4hph03ZikWIplvNsdt&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwp7jOBhDGARIsABe7C4cUgBSOpVNWniaVR7Bn7Ia8PXo2FAGJUdv090-b566KBEwW-h4dCkoaAhK6EALw_wcB"><em>6397 - </em></a></div><p>The morning after her reveal, Emma reckons with a raging hangover and a barrage of questions from Charlie about the part of her life she’s long hidden. The couple then suffers through the most awkward wedding-photo test-session ever. Charlie, in a white oxford shirt, can’t hide his panic and apprehension, while Emma forces a smile in all-black: a boxy YMC sweater, barrel-leg YMC jeans, and her go-to Ralph Lauren flats. Danabassis imagined Emma—feeling pretty rough—just throwing on the easy, comforting outfit. But the black-and-white contrast also represents Charlie’s conflicting feelings about a future with Emma post-revelation.</p><p>“He’s projecting what’s ‘good’ and ‘bad,’” says Danabassis, also noting how Emma’s sweater echoes the oversize navy sweatshirt her younger self (Jordan Curet) wears in a flashback and in Charlie’s spiraling fantasy sequence.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/2/b5df7e4e/02_02_28_21_avpc_r2_rec709_g24_185_3840x2160_0176373-1.jpeg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photo courtesy A24</figcaption></figure><div><a href="https://thisisthegreat.com/products/the-slouch-sweatshirt-true-navy"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/2/47904e17/screen-shot-2026-04.png?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>The Slouch Sweatshirt</h3></a></div><div><a href="https://www.endclothing.com/us/ymc-deadbeat-trouser-q4czc-01.html?gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=23424736029&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwp7jOBhDGARIsABe7C4cI-XHeu1hMkEeMokMjkR6lvrHsneUr2TEUYeWYuW7CkJPrL3wa7I4aArxqEALw_wcB"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/2/888a5781/21-01-25_tc_q4czc-01_1_1.webp?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>YMC Deadbeat Trouser</h3></a><a href="https://www.endclothing.com/us/ymc-deadbeat-trouser-q4czc-01.html?gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=23424736029&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwp7jOBhDGARIsABe7C4cI-XHeu1hMkEeMokMjkR6lvrHsneUr2TEUYeWYuW7CkJPrL3wa7I4aArxqEALw_wcB"><em>End.

It’s almost like an upside-down world,” says Danabassis, explaining that Charlie’s khaki suit is also an anomaly. “It also just signifies a very misplaced feeling.”</p><p>When Emma wears bright colors, it also telegraphs something, like when she first caught a blundering Charlie’s attention in a fine-knit chartreuse green sweater by 6397 in the opening scenes. The bright hue speaks to that pivotal introductory moment, but Danabassis also admits to “some color psychology.” She points to the film theory book <em>If It's Purple, Someone’s Gonna Die: The Power of Color in Visual Storytelling</em>, which features two chapters dedicated to the complex meanings behind green, including danger and psychological unease.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/2/0c41f998/avpc_r1_rec709_g24_3996x2160_0091202-1.jpeg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photo courtesy A24</figcaption></figure><div><a href="https://6397news.com/products/heirloom-elbow-t-asparagus"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/2/f55a41fb/elbow_heirloom_4_f.webp?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Heirloom Elbow T</h3></a><a href="https://6397news.com/products/heirloom-elbow-t-asparagus"><em>6397 - </em></a></div><p>Perhaps foreshadowing, Emma repeats the acid green on a quarter-zip by MHL x Mizuno as she brainstorms her vows with colleague Alice (Hannah Gross) and Rachel—and shares with her judgy friends that Charlie is her first love.</p><p>No spoilers, but the couple makes it to their wedding day.

A beloved cult bag, updated for now, of course.</p><p>Seen heading to a work engagement in Beverly Hills yesterday, Jenner toted a burgundy flap bag designed by Matthieu Blazy for <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/chanel-spring-2026-matthieu-blazy-debut-runway-photos">Chanel’s spring 2026 collection</a>. The silhouette riffs on the famous Coco Chanel–designed silhouette but in a more minimalist manner. The textured quilting has been replaced with a smooth napa leather, and the bag itself boasts a roomier, slouchier shape, which made it perfect for Jenner to sling over her shoulder.</p><p>The remainder of the model’s look continued to twist business classics. She wore a sleek The Row jacket from the label’s fall 2025 collection, with a nipped-in waist and a high structured collar. Jenner finished the look with boot-cut jeans that she styled with square-toe ballet flats in black leather. In her hands, she carried a leather-bound notebook and a to-go drinks container.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/2/2dfb31ac/bgus_3537477_005.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Clint Brewer Photography / BACKGRID</figcaption></figure><p>The Chanel flap is a hallmark of the maison, perhaps just as much as tweed fabric. (After Coco Chanel created the bag, it was redesigned and popularized by Karl Lagerfeld in the ’80s.) But for spring 2026, Blazy reinterpreted the classic fold-over through a refined lens—look no further than Jenner’s business outing. The redone<em> </em>pochette<em> </em>is already a commercial success (as evidenced by those <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/matthieu-blazy-first-chanel-collection-launch-interviews">winding lines looking to nab Blazy’s debut collection</a>) and is becoming fodder for celebrities like Harry Styles’s and Jenner’s close friend, <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/hailey-bieber-cropped-trench-coat-white-pants-bag-sydney">Hailey Bieber</a>.</p><p>If Jenner’s track record with designer bags is any indication, expect her to pick up a few more colors—and sizes—of the new Chanel flap in the near future.</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[celebrity style]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[Meryl Streep Hides a Cerulean Sweater Under Her Leopard Top Coat]]></title><description><![CDATA[She layered something devilish under a trendy top coat.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/meryl-streep-leopard-coat-blue-sweater-black-bag-new-york</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/meryl-streep-leopard-coat-blue-sweater-black-bag-new-york</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 Apr 2026 16:13:12 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matthew Velasco]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/2/3de692f0/new-york-ny-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/2/3de692f0/new-york-ny-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Jason Howard/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Meryl Streep is stepping back into the stilettos of Miranda Priestly for <em><a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/culture/the-devil-wears-prada-sequel-explained-cast-plot-spoilers">The Devil Wears Prada 2</a></em>, and her latest press look, unsurprisingly, is right on trend. What else could we expect from an <em>editrice</em> of her stature?</p><p>En route to <em>The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, </em>Streep wore a bold animal print coat by Sarah Burton for Givenchy. Its of-the-moment spotted leopard fabric brought some wild flair, and its proportion was just as dramatic. It featured an oversized pussy bow detail up top, billowing sleeves, and an elongated hemline. </p><p>Streep continued to lean into trends with the rest of her outfit. She signed on to the skinny jeans renaissance with a pair of tight black trousers that looked painted on. And because a proper Priestly look wouldn’t be complete without a work bag, Streep carried Demellier’s Hudson top-handle, a style that’s been worn recently by the likes of Katie Holmes and Emily Ratajkowski. She finished the look with sling backs, cat-eye glasses, and some posing befitting of the pages of <em>Runway </em>magazine.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/2/b9008351/new-york-ny-april.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Jason Howard/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Streep had a surprise in store underneath her leopard top layer.

But stopping by <em>The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon</em> with costar Robert Pattinson yesterday, she offered a preview in a dress that melded wedding day fantasy with honeymoon heat. </p><p>For the appearance, Zendaya wore a midnight blue sheer look from Zimmerman. The underpinnings of the piece—a lingerie-dress hybrid—featured a triangular bra that connected to a fitted corset. The dress’s skirt was just as risqué as the top half. Sitting low on her waist, it featured soft, diaphanous pleats and a tongue-in-cheek garter detail. Zendaya finished the look with a Rolex timepiece, silver earrings, and black Louboutin high heels.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/2/0f4a56d7/the-tonight-show-starring.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>NBC/NBCUniversal/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Working with her Image Architect, Law Roach, Zendaya has planned her press fashion for <em>The Drama</em> as carefully as some people plan their wedding. At the film’s official premieres, she’s so far stuck to wearing “something old, something new, and something borrowed.” That’s manifested in <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/zendaya-white-bridal-dress-rewear-the-drama-premiere-los-angeles">Vivienne Westwood from her very own archive</a>, <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/zendaya-white-dress-black-train-the-drama-premiere-paris">custom Louis Vuitton</a>, and a dramatic <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/zendaya-black-dress-cate-blanchett-the-drama-premiere-rome">Armani Privé look borrowed from Cate Blanchett</a>. </p><p>Her non–red carpet press fashion has stuck to theme, though not quite as strictly.

The aesthetic reset began early, with Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez’s fresh-faced first teaser for Loewe, lensed by Talia Chetrit, introducing an intimate point of view. Sarah Burton’s sophomore “Portrait Series” followed, featuring legendary punk musician and artist Paul Simonon alongside longtime friend of the house, Rooney Mara, in a suite of striking, spare photos that spotlight personality over polish. At Celine, Michael Rider launched a full-on charm offensive with “Infinite Possibilities,” a joyful array of images and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMzPCQlk7lM" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">video</a> celebrating the house’s Charms collection in a deliberately maximal, more-is-more spirit. Ahead, all of the must-see campaigns setting the tone for 2026.</p><h2>Miu Miu </h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/1/1f8e93d4/mm26_campaign_bag_photo_gigi_derived_g03_nologo_pr_150dpi.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photograph by Steven Meisel; Courtesy of Miu Miu </figcaption></figure><p>The spotlight is on Miu Miu’s leather goods in a new campaign for the brand—though Gigi Hadid is not to be ignored. The model stars in images shot by Steven Meisel, and she is a lone figure in a primary-color world. </p><h2>Miu Miu</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/1/e9bbd082/mm26_campaign_bag_photo_gigi_derived_g01_nologo_pr_150dpi.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photograph by Steven Meisel; Courtesy of Miu Miu </figcaption></figure><p>Hadid sits in a quintessential bourgeois apartment, flanked by doors loosely painted green, blue, and red. This conventional environment is transformed with the use of color, which is reflected in Hadid’s accessories. The Arcadie and Wander bags from the Italian brand are never far from the model. Also rendered in bright hues, they’re the perfect representation of Miu Miu’s technique and craft. </p><h2>Gucci</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/23/e7190c9f/official-crop_00060_gu_103_f17.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photograph by Mert &amp; Marcus</figcaption></figure><p>They say you can tell a lot about a person from their shoes, but really, it’s one’s bag that provides a true peek into their psyche. Someone who carries around a petite top-handle is very different from the gal who always has a stuffed tote on hand. In Gucci’s latest campaign, the brand explores this relationship between a person and their bag, considering the accessory as more than just an object, but a form of personal representation.</p><h2>Gucci</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/23/db7c5498/official-crop_00010_gu_020_f28.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photograph by Mert &amp; Marcus</figcaption></figure><p>“Beauty and the Bag” stars Kate Moss and Emily Ratajkowski, with each woman toting their respective purse.

Thanks to Chanel, the Australian pop star has reunited with French director Michel Gondry for the first time since 2002, when the pair worked on Minogue’s “Come Into My World” music video.

Not sameness, but resonance.” </p><h2>McQueen</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/2/17/e63f60b6/mcqueen-ss26-campaign-digital.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photograph by Harley Weir; Courtesy of McQueen</figcaption></figure><p>The worlds of music and fashion converge in McQueen’s spring 2026 campaign, which highlights the intensity and the innate fire within women. </p><h2>McQueen</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/2/17/03059478/mcqueen-ss26-campaign-digital.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photograph by Harley Weir; Courtesy of McQueen</figcaption></figure><p>Harley Weir’s images are dramatic, glowing orange with heat.

It represents an evolution for the brand, but also for young Martin. </p><h2>Bottega Veneta</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/15/464629d9/bottega-veneta_-summer-2026.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photo by Juergen Teller; Courtesy of Bottega Veneta</figcaption></figure><p>Bottega Veneta’s summer 2026 campaign is set among the streets and landmarks of Venice, Italy.

These establishments have long represented gathering places for friends, family, and artists, and in this campaign, they still hold that role. </p><h2>Loro Piana</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/14/d2c6219a/loro-piana_spring-summer-2026.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Loro Piana.

So it’s only fitting for Dolce &amp; Gabbana to tap her to star in its new monumental campaign celebrating 20 years of The One perfume. In the images, the singer (who has a long history of working with D&amp;G) lays atop Cuban actor Alberto Guerra on a bed with satin sheets. The shots, as well as a corresponding short film, are a celebration of tradition and reinvention, as the campaign coincides with the launch of new takes on the classic fragrance. </p><h2>Gucci</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/8/2f68caea/official-crop_250917_19_081_b.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Gucci</figcaption></figure><p>Gucci’s La Famiglia is back.

Once again, there stands “Incazzata” in her ’60s-style coat and silk scarf-wrapped head. “The V.I.C.,” meanwhile (or Very Important Client) is logo’d-up, head-to-toe in the house’s double-G monogram. Each character is distinct, with a unique style and persona, but together, they embody the legacy of a brand entering a new era. </p><h2>Saint Laurent</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/8/a75c3e77/saint-laurent_mombasa_spring26_01.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Saint Laurent</figcaption></figure><p>Over 20 years after its debut in the Saint Laurent spring 2002 collection, the Mombasa bag is back, this time in three sizes.

For the brand’s spring 2026 campaign, Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons have tasked American artist Anne Collier to execute a portfolio of images that challenges the idea of the usual fashion campaign in the digital age. </p><h2>Prada</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/7/7acba78a/prada_ss26-advertising-campaign_04.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Prada</figcaption></figure><p>Collier’s work jumps off the screen, showing qualities of a physical object. Disembodied hands hold up the images, shot by Oliver Hadlee Pearch, allowing for a new perspective.

Who is this person admiring the photos? </p><h2>Prada</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/7/f2cd2487/prada_ss26-advertising-campaign_01.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Prada</figcaption></figure><p>While the handler remains anonymous, the models they’re admiring are anything but unknown.

There is a pomp to the clothes and their compositions: sweaters flare out into capes, and lace dresses explode backward into gravity-defying bows. The models lounge, dance, and vamp it up just so. </p><h2>Dior</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/1/2/ebb448de/dior-ss26-adv-campaign.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Photograph by David Sims; Courtesy of Dior</figcaption></figure><p>Greta Lee leads the charge, followed by actors Louis Garrel and Paul Kircher, models Laura Kaiser and Saar Mansvelt, and footballer Kylian Mbappé. After walking in the Dior women’s show in October, Nicole Kidman’s daughter, Sunday Rose, also returns in the ads. The people morph into new characters in their Dior digs; they’re simultaneously themselves, but also a heightened, newer version. </p><h2>Saint Laurent</h2><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2025/12/3/9da9aea3/saint-laurent_press_release_spring_26_charli_xcx_2.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Courtesy of Saint Laurent</figcaption></figure><p>Charli xcx dons two anoraks in the new campaign for Saint Laurent’s spring 2026 collection.

Here at <em>W</em>, we are meticulous in our evaluation, testing, observing, and weighing what is truly worth your time and money. We listen closely, and we’re not afraid to be ruthless—trends don’t impress us, results do. Price is no measure of merit; the standouts may be outrageously luxurious or quietly brilliant, but each one earns its place. What remains is intentional, considered, and worth your attention. This is your guide to the few products that truly deliver.</p><p>In 2026, <em>W</em> will publish a monthly roundup of the best beauty products that launched recently—genuine game-changers you should consider purchasing.

On March 23, the haircare brand released its latest innovation: the Bond Repair Balm, which gives you silky, stronger hair in three minutes. The product is designed to replace your conditioner, but it acts more like a salon-quality mask doing double-duty, providing hydration while restoring the hair barrier. There’s just no <em>long wait</em> in a chair. After you shampoo, work it through your ends and wait for 180 seconds. A blend of silk protein, hyaluronic acid, peptides, and lipids sets this product apart from other masks—we got to try it early, and we’ve never seen our hair look shinier or healthier. </p><div><a href="https://go.skimresources.com?id=86205X1637188&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dermstore.com%2Fp%2Fnatura-bisse-essential-shock-r-evolution-pro-exo-collagen-cream-2.5oz%2F17703224%2F%3Faffil%3Dthgppc%26kwds%3D%26thg_ppc_campaign%3D23133135556%26adtype%3Dpla%26product_id%3D17703224%26cq_src%3Dgoogle_ads%26cq_cmp%3D23133135556%26cq_con%3D%26cq_term%3D%26cq_med%3Dpla%26cq_plac%3D%26cq_net%3Dx%26cq_plt%3Dgp%26gclsrc%3Daw.ds%26gad_source%3D1%26gad_campaignid%3D23129126834%26gbraid%3D0AAAAAD_vmAUkkDv7Ii7rV5I1Sa09DneyY%26gclid%3DCj0KCQjw4a3OBhCHARIsAChaqJN6jSlxX4MZh0zdJq2kCZy6C2ahB9xuKTfGU6VETsJqbvIn8r-3LdsaAnYCEALw_wcB"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/1/9a2bcd93/_0004_natura-bisse-shock-creamjpg.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Natura Bissé Essential Shock Revolution Pro-Exo Collagen Cream</h3></a></div><p>At $165, it’s a fairly compelling price for such high-performance care because time, fatigue…. it’s all inevitable.

Topicals can only do so much, and those that burn, peel, or prick often compromise your skin barrier. This supplement, from venerated surgeon to the stars Dr. Kami Parsa, is a standou because, unlike most collagen powders that rely solely on peptides, it tackles multiple skin-aging pathways at once, supporting structural collagen, deep hydration, barrier repair, antioxidant defense, and cellular recovery in a single daily serving. That’s a lot, but each scoop also delivers pasture-raised, grass-fed hydrolyzed collagen peptides, hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and vitamins and minerals, replenishing what skin loses with age while strengthening hair, nails, and overall resilience.</p><div><a href="https://go.skimresources.com?id=86205X1637188&amp;xs=1&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bloomingdales.com%2Fshop%2Fproduct%2Fchristophe-robin-fortifying-scalp-serum-1.6-oz.%3FID%3D5983923%26CategoryID%3D2921"><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/3/31/6d672b6d/_0012_110325_1603552_christoph_robin_packshots_shot_1_left-1.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/></figure><h3>Christophe Robin Fortifying Scalp Serum</h3></a></div><p>Legendary French colorist Christophe Robin (whose client list includes Tilda Swinton, Claudia Schiffer, and Catherine Deneuve) reminds us why his approach has such authority.

While <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/zendaya-the-drama-press-fashion-photos">Zendaya is busy dressing like a bride </a>to promote <em>The Drama</em>, her costar Alana Haim is doing some low-key method dressing of her own.</p><p>Haim, who plays a close friend of Zendaya’s and Robert Pattinson’s characters in <em>The Drama, </em>was spotted out in New York today wearing a lime green above-the-knee Versace dress, hailing from Dario Vitale’s first (and only) collection for the Italian brand. Despite its slightly sheer effect, the garment maintained a polished sensibility that balanced its flirtier details. Haim styled the spring dress with black mules, structured glasses, and a monogram Louis Vuitton shoulder bag. But it was another accessory that sealed the look in bridesmaid territory.</p><p>On her right wrist, Haim wore a light pink flower corsage with green leaf accents that tied into her dress. The wristlet detail, in fact, has been a recurring motif throughout her <em>Drama</em> press tour, much like Zendaya’s bridal-inspired looks. One of a bridesmaid’s main job during a ceremony is to hold the flowers, after all. </p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/image/2026/4/1/0f41318f/blu_a124419487.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Christopher Peterson</figcaption></figure><p>For a recent appearance on <em>Late Night With Seth Meyers</em>, Haim wore another white flower on her hand. It added contrast to her champagne-hued corset and low-waisted lace skirt. And when attending <em>The Drama</em>’s Los Angeles premiere, she paired a stark Louis Vuitton dress in black silk with a feminine corsage of two flowers stacked on top of the other.</p><p>Where Zendaya is interpreting “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue,” with her press fashion, Haim is leaning into the supporting role with a playful flourish of her own.

Now that the astrological winter is over and spring is in full swing, it’s only natural that your energy will pick up, the wheels in your mind turning faster and faster. This month kicks off a full moon, inner planets moving from Pisces into Aries, and the last of the outer planets finally committing to their new sign after dancing around the change all of last year.</p><p>The theme of the month: Keep moving forward without exhausting yourself.<em><strong> </strong></em>While major astrological changes have been happening all year, this month solidifies your place in truly uncharted territory. It’s easy to get exhausted while navigating constant change, which is why this month is a perfect moment to connect with your energy levels. What sort of physical, emotional, and spiritual exertion is necessary to keep yourself grounded?</p><p>On April 1, the <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/life/april-horoscope-2026-zodiac-libra-full-moon-astrology">Libra full moon</a> kicks off the month with a reminder that some tension can be a good thing every now and then. There is an Aries stellium opposite the moon, so there’s definitely some tightness in the air. That’s okay, because conflict is what challenges us to grow. But this moment is all about finding the right amount of tension so we don’t break under the pressure. What brings peace, justice, harmony? What needs to be faced head-on for the sake of long-term stability?</p><p>On April 9, Mars enters Aries, which means Mars is home! Things are about to heat up—that slump, that sluggishness, the multiple cups of coffee or two-hour nap to get through the day, all of that is over. Spring has officially sprung and the Energizer Bunny within all of us is letting loose. In the early days of this transit, Mars passes over Saturn and Neptune, so it’s important to pace yourself. </p><p>On April 15, Mercury enters Aries; another firecracker of a transit is upon us. The mind will start catching up with the body, and your inner urge to just go for it will be backed by adrenaline. This is a great time for affirmations and embracing a warrior mentality. How can you focus on the good fight? Mercury is also conjunct with Neptune and Saturn, marking a moment to get serious about how your dreams are going to become a reality. It’ll be important to not let yourself get discouraged too quickly and burn out.</p><p>On April 17, the Aries new moon brings a bold refresh. Healing inside and bravely affirming the fresh spring energy is the main lesson at the moment. You should get ready for a new era to begin. Find the confidence to be bold and kick-start new endeavors, but remember to remain strategic enough to know that a strong base is necessary to keep the fire burning. Aries wants us to take action and be fearless about the direction you are heading. So what are you waiting for?</p><p>On April 20, Taurus season starts—the period of the bull is upon us! After blazing through Aries season, we can either let the shift to Taurus stop us in our tracks and grab a long nap in the park, or we can take stock of how we’ve been navigating the past four weeks. Consider how you use your resources on the things that matter most. Put effort into creative projects, stabilize your self-worth (celebrate the little wins from Aries season!) and get your money right. Stick to your core values and the rest will come naturally.</p><p>On April 24, Venus enters Gemini. The shift from Taurus to Gemini indicates that you know what you want—how about seeing what options are out there? If you love blue blouses, how many different styles can you try before you buy? If you love a rugged rugby player look, perhaps flirting with the entire team before settling down with one player could spark some inspiration. Venus in Gemini allows for a freeness when it comes to how we create beautiful things and connect with beautiful people. Have fun with it.</p><p>On April 26, Uranus re-enters Gemini. This one is a biggie. Uranus is the last of the outer planets to cement itself in a new sign. After spending nearly a decade in Taurus (and giving us a taste of its Gemini flair last summer) the planet of innovation and radical action moves into the sign of communication, duality, and flexibility. Expect more tech crazes, social discourse, and alternative media sources, but less rigid social norms.</p><h2>Aries</h2><p>April is your time to take center stage. It’s all about you...for the most part, but don’t let your ego get too big. Who are you? Where are you going? Self-starting is key, which is typically easy for the naturally ambitious like yourself. If something sparks your interest, go for it. You might need to reflect on relationships and how you communicate with others. Exploring boundaries with yourself and others is good to keep top of mind. That said, make sure you aren’t overdoing it. I know how Aries can be: excitable! Let passion guide you, but don’t forget to take care of yourself as you go.</p><h2>Taurus</h2><p>Taurus, the first half of the month will feel a bit sluggish. You’ll continue making efforts to shed your skin so you can step into your season with gusto. Once your motivation picks up toward the end of the month, what will you leave behind? Embrace your yearly fresh start—is there anything you are simply tired of holding on to? What are you learning about yourself along the way? Change is good, and for you that means changing up your routine so that it celebrates and supports your most earnest desires. Taurus season will be a much-needed refresher to boost your sense of self.</p><h2>Gemini</h2><p>This month has you coming out of a Mercury retrograde slump, Gemini. You could still be feeling its lingering effects, so perhaps there is a piece of you that is resisting the lessons you’ve learned. That said, when Mercury changes signs mid-month, you’ll be able to confidently move through the world without feeling topsy-turvy. The end of the month is really when things kick off. With Uranus and Venus moving into Gemini, you’ll get a big boost for your sense of self and the change you’ve been feeling coming toward you. Get ready, because a fresh, free, and fantastic new you is about to emerge.</p><h2>Cancer</h2><p>You’re entering your cosmic winter. I know, I know—it is spring, but you still might be feeling a sense longing and letting go. Perhaps this month is met with some mourning of an experience, a dream, or a path you’ve been following for a while. Balancing the public and personal is important right now. Make sure you keep up with your obligations and rest and recover when you need to. Overall, this is a great time to think about where you are going. What you are fighting for? Keep going after it, but don’t overdo it.</p><h2>Leo</h2><p>During April, your bubbly outlook on life is coming back. You’ve done the deep work, and now you’re able to appreciate the journey you’re on with a fresh perspective. The bright horizon waiting for you might feel like a nudge toward some foreign travel, high education, or anything that pushes your perspective. Now is a great time for you to make a plan for how you want to step out of your comfort zone. What is the next big adventure you are ready to go on? Where do you want to see yourself in a year? Take charge of your direction and be confident in whatever path you choose. You don’t have to have it all figured out, just be consistent about finding the answers.</p><h2>Virgo</h2><p>This month will have you off to the races. You are in a season of connections with others—and your deeper self. Transformation is at the heart of April, plus making sure that your inner world becomes a reflection of where you are heading in the outer world. With Uranus approaching your house of career, you can expect that, after April, you will start seeing some massive changes in your life’s direction. Use the next four weeks to consider where you can be supported by others, and how you can shift your attitude to focus on your capabilities. There’s an urge to finally commit to a dream career path and carving out new roads to get you there.</p><h2>Libra</h2><p>Libra, April kicks off with a full moon in your sign: a cosmic reminder of who you are<em>. </em>That said, transformation, shared finances, and new adventures are all important influences this month. April is a moment for you to look outward at what is influencing your inner self. There’s plenty of potential for new relationships, but also new boundaries being set in case there is any tension. Perhaps some tough love is what you need to ease the tension and get yourself back on track. Let yourself really embrace the power of people, and understand how those who surround you influence you.</p><h2>Scorpio</h2><p>Throughout April, considering your daily routine and relationships will be most important. You might have a bit more pep in your step, a new project that is motivating you, or even a personal goal to keep you consistent. Or, perhaps, you might be inching closer to a crash-out if you aren’t keeping up with routines. We aren’t looking for a quick fix, a dash of gasoline over the fire—this month is about keeping the momentum moving forward. That said, you might need to rely on your most trusted relationships in order to get your mind and body right.</p><h2>Sagittarius</h2><p>Celebrate the good times, and keep joy alive this month! Joy is imperative for survival, and building a consistent creative and passion-based routine is part of what keeps the joy in a constant flow. However, we don’t want to overdo it or fall back into quick-fix passion projects that never fully satisfy your itch. Stop chasing the dopamine kick and let your nervous system guide you toward a regulated way to indulge in pleasure. Some new relationships could pop up toward the end of the month as well, so be on the lookout for inspiring individuals.</p><h2>Capricorn</h2><p>Capricorn, your question for April: What have I learned about my inner world? Are you realizing new ways to express your emotions? Or making restoration a priority? Is the child within you itching to take charge and take your adult self on a much-needed recovery day (or week?) This is a bit of an accountability month. Do regular check-ins to see if you’re actually following through with what your inner world is asking of you. Remember that relaxation and play time are also healthy ways to make progress.</p><h2>Aquarius</h2><p>It’s time! April is the month Uranus finally shifts out of Taurus and into Gemini. This is the end of an era. No longer are you struggling to keep up with an influx of emotional changes. Uranus moving signs is like a gust of wind on a spring day, helping clear off all the dust from the counters. You’ll find it’s a lot easier to have fun and explore your passions over the next four weeks. And the good news is that the buildup to this shift will be filled with plenty of ideas on how to occupy your time and keep the fire in your heart burning.</p><h2>Pisces</h2><p>This will be a month of shifts. All the planets that were once in your sign are officially on their way out. But that change should give you more confidence to affirm who you are and your capabilities. You’ll notice over the month that your material world will get a nice boost in activity. The spring flowers are blooming—and so is your pocketbook. This is a physical manifestation of all the inner work you’ve done and how far you’ve come. That said, take some time to make sure you aren’t burning through your resources. A teeny bit of structure and restraint could take you a long way.</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category><category><![CDATA[life]]></category><category><![CDATA[horoscopes]]></category></item><item><title><![CDATA[An Appreciation of Sharon Stone’s Six Decades of Style]]></title><description><![CDATA[Revisit her best looks over the years, here.]]></description><link>https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/sharon-stone-style-evolution</link><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.wmagazine.com/fashion/sharon-stone-style-evolution</guid><pubDate>Wed, 01 Apr 2026 18:37:08 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator><![CDATA[Steph Eckardt]]></dc:creator><media:thumbnail url="https://imgix.bustle.com/wmag/2017/03/10/58c2db2a5626f6544f18df4b_GettyImages-115353854_master.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max" /><content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/wmag/2017/03/10/58c2db2a5626f6544f18df4b_GettyImages-115353854_master.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Jim Smeal/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Sharon Stone kicked off her career at the very start of the ’90s opposite Arnold Schwarzenegger in <em>Total Recall</em>, meaning that as she went on to become one of Martin Scorsese’s leading ladies. Nabbing an Oscar nomination for her role as a doomed hustler named Ginger, she ended up showcasing the best of the decade’s style on the red carpet, too. <em>Postcards from the Edge</em>, for example, Mike Nichols’s 1990 film with Meryl Streep, found Stone wearing mom jeans to the premiere, which were then followed by an array of motorcycle jackets, two-piece separates, cheetah prints, and headbands over the next few years. </p><p>As the decade came to a close, Stone started to turn her back on looks leaning toward menswear and instead started pulling out the gowns, especially at the amfAR galas, where she’s proved a frequent (and frequently glittery) attendee. Not that that means she’s taking any less risks: she wore a literal pair of wings to a garden-themed gala in 2015, and even in her 60s is still quite the fan of feathers—and <a href="https://www.wmagazine.com/story/sharon-stone-on-sexual-misconduct-cbs-sunday">definitely knows just how amazing</a> she looks.

Images</figcaption></figure><p>Chase Infiniti was the breakout style star of the 2026 awards season, wearing awards looks that cemented her status as one to watch on every red carpet. Last night, the <em>One Battle After Another</em> star proved she has no plans to slow down her style streak.</p><p>Arriving to the premiere of <em>The Testaments</em>, Hulu’s new spinoff of <em>The Handmaid’s Tale</em>, the star pirouetted onto the reed carpet in a custom Louis Vuitton ballerina dress. The strapless design began with a structured mesh corset that buckled down the front and featured exposed boning. Infiniti’s dress then moved into ballerina territory. The dress’s skirt began just below her waist, before exploding into a tulle tutu that cut off at the ankle. Even her shoe choice, a pair of satin caramel brown high heels, were like high-fashion ballerina slippers.</p><figure><img src="https://imgix.bustle.com/uploads/getty/2026/4/1/23e94f96/los-angeles-california-march.jpg?w=1200&amp;fit=max"/><figcaption>Julian Hamilton/FilmMagic/Getty Images</figcaption></figure><p>Infiniti kept her look polished with her styling and beauty choices. She wore her hair in a braided chignon and sported understated jewelry in the form of delicate hoop earrings and diamond rings.</p><p>The actor had a remarkable awards season earlier this year, picking up a slate of nominations for her turn in <em>One Battle After Another</em>—which, amazingly, was her first major film role. Infiniti delivered on the fashion front, too. Working with the stylist duo Wayman and Micah, the actor brought major fashion to the red carpets of the Oscars, Golden Globes, and Critics’ Choice Awards, whether it be in a mirrored Louis Vuitton peplum dress or billowing palazzo pants by Christopher John Rogers. </p><p>Through it all, Infiniti’s awards run proved that the actor isn’t shy about having fun, or taking risks, with her fashion choices—something she demonstrated with aplomb last night. Clearly, the Chase Infiniti era is here. And it’s just getting started.</p>]]></content:encoded><category><![CDATA[fashion]]></category><category><![CDATA[red carpet]]></category><category><![CDATA[celebrity style]]></category><category><![CDATA[homepage]]></category></item></channel></rss>
