For many of us tie-dye will have specific, and possibly negative, associations with the ‘90s. It was a look that was prevalent in teen TV shows and regularly spotted on famous girl band members, and it exuded a certain sort of bohemian spirit that demanded accompanying ripped denim, eye-wateringly bright accessories and a general ‘too cool for school’ attitude. Well, like it or not, the trend has returned, with a plethora of tie-dye buys cropping up on the runways of Off-White, Dior, Stella McCartney and Proenza Schouler this season.

Arguably the most important runway trend for autumn/winter 2021 is a return to loud, highly pigmented colours. From cerise mini dresses with matching tights and satin platforms at Versace (perhaps my favourite catwalk look of the entire season) through to the mix ‘n’ match super-brights in oversized shapes at Raf Simons, designers are painting a vibrant scene for the months to come. The vibe, however, is already coming to the fore ahead of time on social media. Whether brightening up the streets of London or taking something standout on staycation, Brit girls are backing the look wholeheartedly, choosing solid-colour, ultra-vibrant dresses by the dozen. Elsewhere on planet fashion, you’ll find the Scandi crews continuing to flex their colour-clashing muscle...
When it comes to boots—actually, all shoes—I always tend to buy them from the high street. Being as hard on shoes as I am (something that, even though I’m an almost 32-year-old adult, my mum still tells me off for), investing in super-premium footwear just isn’t a wise investment for me. Still, I never feel like I’m missing out, as the high street reliably manages to tick off all the biggest trends in swift succession to the runway. As such, I never feel behind. That said, I feel like this autumn, the high street’s lapping the designers with its offering of excellent boots, which have already started to drop.

If you’d have asked me this time last year what my desert island makeup product would be, blusher wouldn’t have even made the top ten. In fact, I think I probably only had one blusher in my otherwise excessive makeup stash. You see, I have always championed a stream-lined, simple routine. As far as I was concerned, all I needed for my daily routine was a hefty layer of concealer, some bronzer and maybe a quick coat of mascara on my lashes. Anything else was just added faff that I couldn’t be bothered with. But then, a cream blusher came my way and everything changed. I realised that the thing that stressed me about out blusher the most was the application process. From applying too much to getting it in the wrong place, with powder formulas, it’s all too easy to make mi...
Skincare hype is really hard to ignore. When a brand or product manages to cut through the cluttered market and capture consumers’ attention either by word of mouth, the press, or social media, it’s really hard to resist just making the easy choice and buying the It serum, SPF, or face mask that everybody else seems to have. The issue is that the skincare products that amass the most hype aren’t always the ones that deserve it, like a hit single on an album that contains way better (albeit less popular) tracks. That problem is just what this list is attempting to solve. Here at Who What Wear, we wind up trying almost every product from every buzzy skincare brand introduced to the market, so we have thoughts ...
Ah, Gen Z. The generation that’s coined the term cheugy, likes to do a strange frozen-honey challenge on TikTok and reminds millennials that skinny jeans are absolutely not the style to wear right now. For clarification, I haven’t worn my drainpipes for some time. I have a pair of the Topshop Jonis stashed in my wardrobe, which I will never part with (just in case), but other than that, I’ve always been a fan of a looser fit. In fact, during my teenage years in the late ’90s and early ’00s, the baggy jeans I lived in were so long they’d often suck up a whole puddle’s worth of water every time it rained. What with Gen Z’s propensity for Y2K trends, could these floor sweepers be back? Thankfully, things are a little more sophist...
Whether you’re a makeup aficionado or take a more pared-back approach to beauty, I think it’s a fairly safe bet to assume that you’ve heard of Bobbi Brown. The renowned makeup artist launched her eponymous makeup brand back in the early ’90s, starting with a line of wearable lipsticks before releasing the now-cult Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick. Tired of the excessive, editorial-style makeup of the late ’80s and early ’90s, Brown’s motivation was clear from the outset: simple, wearable products that slot effortlessly into your makeup bag and don’t require makeup artistry levels of skill to look good. Since Brown parted ways with her namesake brand a few years back, the industry has been waiting with bated breath to see what ...
No word of a lie; I’ve spent the last two years contemplating the purchase of a leather blazer. I’m not one to part with cash flippantly, so an item with this sort of cost attached to it always requires a lot of consideration. I was so close to taking the shopping leap last autumn, but given the fact restrictions were still very much in place at the time, I decided against it. After all, if I were to buy a leather blazer, I’d want people to see me wearing my leather blazer. Although not even a crystal ball can tell us what the future holds, this autumn already looks to be more hopeful and, for the lack of a better word, normal. So I’ve started to think about making that all-important leather-blazer purchase once more. Wanting to ensure I...
Growing up, the bottles of body sprays, lotions, butters and eau de toilettes that lined my bathroom vanity were far sweeter than a desert-filled episode of The Great British Bake Off. My rotation typically included Britney Spears’s Fantasy (or Curious); a pure-sugar scent that, not surprisingly, was called Pink Sugar; and anything else my collection of glossy magazines was advertising. If it smelled like a frosted cupcake with sprinkles, I was—without a doubt—wearing it. I’ll always love unapologetically sweet scents, but now my tastes have graduated to fragrance blends that are warm and woody or grounded with spices, leathers or classic florals. That said, signature sweet notes like vanilla are often at the heart of...
Copenhagen might not be one of the fashion weeks on the traditional fashion calendar, but it has certainly built a reputation for its innovative and agenda-setting approach to design. So many buzzy labels, fresh styling ideas and sustainability initiatives emerge from this city each season. The street style is almost as inspiring as the looks we see on the runways, as guests aren’t afraid to have fun with their outfits over in Copenhagen. This crowd has sparked lots of the styling trends we have seen dominate over the past few years, such as oversized, colourful midi dresses paired with chunky boots and a love of vibrant prints. This fashion week is all about having fun and experimenting with personal style, which often translates into a whole lot of colour. So we always keep a v...
First things first: I have long been intrigued by cupping therapy. However, with a generally healthy lifestyle, I’ve never really felt like I needed to indulge in the Eastern medical practice—until now. Spending so much time at home over the last 18 months has meant less movement than ever, and I’ve started to feel lethargic and fatigued. So when beauty services returned, I immediately started looking into how cupping and other Eastern massage practices could help to alleviate my sluggishness. And I wasn’t alone. “As wellness businesses and spas have reopened, Brits are prioritising their self-care,” says Kinsey Livingston, ClassPass VP of partnerships. “ClassPass reservations for UK beauty and wellness appointments are up 74% compared...
Dressing for autumn? It’s a challenge I’m always happy to take on. Whether it’s assembling interesting layered looks or keeping cosy in knitwear, autumn is when I come into my sartorial own. So much so I’m willing away the last few weeks of summer so I can start focusing on my autumn outfits. Now, I do understand why some get anxious about the shift in seasons. Chances are you feel like you’ve just gotten into your summer style stride and know there’s another time of year to think about. However, I genuinely believe that dressing for autumn is easy—at least it is when you have a handful of autumn fashion essentials at your disposal. Over the years, I’ve curated an autumn capsule that’s versatile and sleek and will ensure you don’t ...
