This Is How London Girls Are Styling Their Trousers Right Now
Trousers are a year-round wardrobe staple and one that British fashion types certainly don’t have autonomy over. Still, after reviewing six months worth of the impressive street style imagery we’ve captured by way of London pavements, I can discern one thing: The capital’s most adept dressers know how to style their trousers. Between puddle pants and cargoes, loose-fit denim and tailoring, London girls have embraced 2022’s penchant for trousers like no one else. It helps that they loan themselves to our climate, where, even in the peak of summer, there remains an omnipresent chill in the air, particularly after a certain point in the evening. Looking back at our photo archives, trouser outfits were just as predominant in the month of July as they were during ou...
24 Epic Gifts Any TikTok Obsessive Will Appreciate
I’m by no means a TikTok expert, but there are a few things I’ve learnt whilst using the platform over the past year or so. 1) Avid TikTok users have pretty expensive taste. They know their brands and take investment purchases seriously, aspiring to own the latest must-have bag or spending hours tracking down the current cult trainer (most likely on Laced, where it’s selling for a premium). 2) They lean heavily into nostalgia, delighting in the clothes and accessories that make most 30-somethings such as me shudder when we remember how we wore them (probably less stylishly) the first time around. And 3) they know how to have fun. From adorning their hair with rhinestones to singing along in their karaoke microphones, TikTok presents its users with an escape from real...
What to Wear to a Black-Tie Event If You Have No Clue Where to Start
Most of us love a good party, but receiving an invite for a black-tie event can be as daunting as it is exciting. Obviously, the idea of dressing up and buying some new additions for your wardrobe is welcome. But no one wants to be the person who over- or under-dressed. We all know black tie means formal, but it also leaves plenty of room for interpretation. Especially if you’ve never done black tie before. If you’re lucky enough to receive a black tie invite, we’re hear to clear up once and for all what the dos and don’ts really are—so we called upon Browns’ Senior Fashion buyer and all-round style expert Octavia Bradford. She thumbs through the most amazing high-end formalwear every day as a part of her job, so she knows better than anyone how to put togeth...

I’m a Stylist—9 Easy Trouser Outfits I Plan on Copying This Winter
Dressing for winter can be hard. There are so many factors to consider—not least the weather and how to navigate all those layers. If you’re a dress person, there’s an easy throw-on formula of a knitted midi dress and knee-high boots to turn to. But if you’re like me and feel much more comfortable and confident in a pair of trousers, there are many more variables, and it can sometimes be hard not to just turn to your trusty jeans and knits on busy mornings. That’s why I’m here today. I’ve recently been scrolling through the feeds of the best dressed people I know, searching for some trouser-shaped inspiration for the season ahead. There were nine looks I added to my saved folder that particularly stood out to me,...
Elizabeth Debicki Channels Princess Diana’s Elegance in Strapless Dress at “The Crown” Premiere
The stars of “The Crown” season 5 were out in force at the world premiere in London on 8 Nov. In celebration of the latest series, released on Netflix on 9 Nov., Australian actor Elizabeth Debicki oozed class in a stunning black Dior gown ahead of her debut as Princess Diana, as she takes over from Emma Corrin, who played the “people’s princess” in season 4. The chic black strapless dress, from Dior’s spring/summer 22 couture collection, was designed with cutout sections around the ribs and pleats around the chest. With added material around the neck to form a choker, the flowing fabric draped onto the floor, falling over the racerback design. Debicki’s gown felt like a modern iteration of Princess Diana‘s infamous “revenge dress”...
Anya Taylor-Joy Brightens Up the Red Carpet in a Blue Leather Bodice and 5-inch Heels
She’s the star of “The Menu” and Anya Taylor-Joy certainly served up a delicious look at the premiere for her new film on 9 Nov. The actress stepped onto the red carpet wearing a striking cobalt blue strapless dress made completely of leather. The strapless number, from Alexander McQueen’s spring/summer 23 collection, featured a corseted bodice and an asymmetric frill hemmed skirt. The 26-year-old, who also starred in Netflix’s “The Queen’s Gambit“, added long matching blue leather opera gloves with a diamond-encrusted bangle from Jaeger Le-Coulre, and a pair of black patent Christian Louboutin stilettos that elongated her legs. Her long blonde hair was styled with soft waves, parted to the side, and swept over one shoulder to mirror the asym...
Florence Pugh Steps Out in a Micro Mini Skirt and Mismatched Boots
Florence Pugh proved that opposites attract in the world of fashion — literally in the case of the fabric for her latest outfit. Stepping out in New York while promoting her upcoming Netflix film, “The Wonder“, the actor wore a cropped blazer and matching micro mini skirt by Havre Studio. The co-ord was divided down the middle to create a two-tone effect with half of the suit in black fabric and the other half in cream, with opposing buttons for extra detail. Showing a sliver of her torso, it’s giving us ’60s Mod vibes. To complete the contrasting look, Pugh expertly teamed the mini skirt with knee-high boots, but she wasn’t about to ruin the half-and-half look with footwear. Instead, she opted for one black boot and one cream boot, of the same style, to finis...
Dua Lipa Wears Patrick Star Nipple Pasties over a Fishnet Dress and Pink Thong
In case you don’t follow Dua Lipa on Instagram (erm, why not?), her latest photos make a bold fashion statement. Never one to shy away from a risqué ensemble, she uploaded a carousel of snaps on 13 Nov. wearing a pink fishnet dress over a matching pink thong, with just a couple of Patrick Star nipple tassels to cover her modesty. Currently in Australia on her “Future Nostalgia” tour, Lipa captioned the post, “down undaaaa in bikini bottom ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”. The pink halterneck fishnet dress, with matching elbow-length arm warmers, was totally see-through meaning Lipa’s underwear had to be part of the overall look. So of course, she wore a pink thong underneath in the exact sa...
