Following an outpouring of support from friends and fans for becoming the next “Doctor Who”, Ncuti Gatwa arrived at the 2022 BAFTA TV awards in a sleek, co-ordinated set that was fit for the “Whoniverse”. Designed by Nigerian luxury brand Orange Culture, Gatwa’s head-to-toe black outfit was a refreshing take on Afrofuturism. Although Gatwa has great red carpet style, his BAFTAs look was a welcomed departure from the tailored suits and luxe silk shirts of his “Sex Education” era. Gatwa’s look featured a black tunic with seamless tailoring, contrasting silk cuffs, a dynamic “peek-a-boo” keyhole neckline, and a peakcock-inspired hemline. The rigid structure of the tunic was balanced out by the fluid movement of the leather, fringed d...
If ever there was a swimwear season for travel restrictions to be reduced and our suitcases to reflect the excitement, it is this year—2022’s swimwear trends are ready to go. I am a self-confessed swimwear obsessive and after over a decade as a buying director for my own swimwear business, I’m always on the lookout for the next big designers and trends. I’m always asked why I love swimwear so much, and to be honest it just kind of happened. I have so many beautiful memories of dreamy summers spent on the beach with my family in Puglia growing up so for me swimwear is synonymous with being happy and having fun—I always felt my most confident in the sun and that was mostly down to the swimwear I picked up on shopping trips with my mother. Then there’s the fact a bi...
It goes without saying that the quest for great style doesn’t end when you move into your 40s. Mature fashion influencers, in general, tend to know their style inside out. They’re not wearing something because it’s now suddenly in; they’re wearing it because it suits them and fits in with their own style and wardrobe. This amounts to one all-important lesson we can learn from these influencers: The clothes never wear them. The over-40 fashion bloggers and influencers listed below are making their marks all over Instagram. Sure, you’ll already find them in much of our content, but we thought it was high time to spotlight some of our favourite dressers. Not only do they have the most stylish closets going, but they’v...
With buzzy titles like “Bridgerton” and “Derry Girls” added to her accolades, Nicola Coughlan is well-versed in dramatic, red carpet style. Following the star’s pink-and-black Richard Quinn gown at the Met Gala, Coughlan continued her love letter to the colour pink with a voluminous, hot pink Valentino gown for the 2022 BAFTA TV awards red carpet. Coughlan’s gown featured a smocked hemline and oversize bows along the sleeves. She complemented the dress with a glossy, black manicure by Michelle Humphrey, hair by Halley Brisker, and makeup by Neil Young using Pat McGrath Labs. Coughlan’s stylist, London-based Aimée Croysdill, paired the fuchsia dress with silver-and-diamond jewellery by Messika. Pink is one of the biggest colour trends of 2022. The ...
Harris Reed is undoubtedly one of the most exciting designers working in the industry right now, who at only 25 years old has already made a powerful mark. He doesn’t simply make clothes, but uses his designs and platform to spark conversation, fight for inclusivity and champion gender fluidity. Harris only founded his eponymous label three years ago but his aesthetic is firmly established. He mixes aristocratic references with ’70s silhouettes, the grittiness of London nightlife and a glam rock spirit, making a theatrical look which he describes as ‘Romanticism Gone Nonbinary.’ Each collection includes gigantic hats, gowns made from deadstock fabrics and exaggerated flares—signatures which have made his show the hottest ticket during London Fashion Week. Harry St...

With summer nearly upon us and vacation plans on my mind, I’ve been thinking a lot about what fashion will look like for the season ahead and the items that will end up in my suitcase. Looking to the fashion set, there are already a number of trends that have momentum behind them. Pieces like sporty sunglasses, which may have seemed niche last season, are already taking over but are truly primed to have an even bigger moment this summer. I’ve also been studying the runways and predict there are trends from both the spring/summer 2022 and fall/winter 2022 that will be in the spotlight this summer. Immediately, the white logo tank from Prada’s fall collection comes to mind. While that particular piece may not be dropping until fall, there are cool v...

From the often velvet-covered chairs to the glass bottles of beautiful colour lined neatly on marble-effect shelves, there are many things that make a visit to the salon a magical experience. And after salons were closed for the best part of a year over 2020 and 2021, this year, we intend on taking full advantage of our appointment with our nail technicians. How, you ask? By opting for some stunning nail art. Remember when nail art consisted of water-painted flowers and glittery dragons? Those were the days. However, after its short-lived moment in the early noughties, nail art really dropped off the grid for a little while. In stark contrast to the grandeur and excess of embellished talons and intricate patterns, for the last 10 years or so, nail trends and ...
Maybe it’s because they tend to focus on perfecting a few hero items that are made to last rather than releasing extensive short-term collections; it could be because they seem to be able to read into what we all truly want to wear. Either way, the latest capsule wardrobe piece the brand have put their perfectly oversized stamp on is the humble bomber jacket— and of course, it doesn’t disappoint. Released in four colours (for now), the Astra shell jacket is the modern twist on a classic we didn’t even know we needed. And since the bomber is set to be huge news again for autumn/winter 2022 and beyond, we’re predicting a sellout soon enough. Of course, it didn’t take long for fashion’s coolest people to jump on it, and we’ve already seen a handful of the most styli...
