I Spent 30 Minutes with Rosie HW’s Makeup Artist, And This Is What I Learned
Over the past year, virtually all of my beauty inspiration has come courtesy of Rosie HW. The Instagram snaps of her go-to slicked-back bun, aesthetically pleasing shower line up and perfectly manicured nails have proved the ultimate form of beauty escapism for me. But despite all of her beauty triumphs, it is without a doubt her perfectly executed, natural-looking makeup that first piqued my interest. Her glowing complexion has always looked so immaculately polished, but relatable enough that, for some reason, I’m left thinking that maybe I could do achieve it too. So, when I had the chance to sit down with Wolff over Zoom a couple of weeks ago, there was only one thing I wanted to know: Is it really possible for us mere mortals to achieve a Rosie-esque look at home, during lockdown,...
All I Can Think About Is Summer—So I’ve Found 13 Outfits I Love
I don’t know about you, but the announcement this week about the road map for easing restrictions has meant that all I can think about is summer. If like me you’re dreaming of afternoons in beer gardens and summer parties with friends, then you might already be searching for the perfect summer outfits for our return to socialising. I for one bought a pair of sandals and a summer cotton dress within hours of the proposal for a restriction-free summer come July. Sometimes, summer outfits need to be straightforward and simple to assemble, with just a flourish of a key accessory or subtle injection of a new styling move, and sometimes—because the UK’s climate is so unpredictable—the layering and construction will be more demanding. (We’ve supplied the more ad...
It’s a Sin’s Omari Douglas Is the Most Stylish Man on TV Right Now
While Douglas says that he doesn’t have the “bravery to be as wild as Roscoe” and he doesn’t “show a lot of skin”, I wonder if he thinks that Roscoe’s wardrobe has rubbed off on his own style? “This week, I’ve been wearing a lot of Carlota Barrera and the jumper I’m wearing today is actually quite Roscoe [points to his wide-knit blue tie-dye jumper] so I think it’s bleeding into my own style. I think this [press tour] is definitely helping me to push it a little.” Clearly though, there’s always been an element of Roscoe in Douglas’s wardrobe, as he reveals he turned up to the fitting wearing something his character would wear. “I wore big hiking boots from Camper with an all black outfit and Ian [Fulcher, the costume designer] said “oh my god, Roscoe would so wear that”. You Deserve t...
This One Colour Is Going to Take Over Your Wardrobe This Spring
The message coming through loud and clear from fashion buyers for spring 2021 is that clothing is going to be joyful with a capital J. Sure, we’ve all come to rely upon comfortable, chic basics and neutral colour palettes, enjoying our dalliances with quietly luxurious loungewear and easy-peasy knitted dresses in somber tones, but the gods of style have decided enough is enough and your wardrobes are overdue a little fun. Designers and brands are delivering said goodness in the form of anything and everything rendered in hot pink. Softer, Millenial-pink tones are still relevant and can enjoy plenty of airtime for seasons to come, but it’s the punchier, highlighter-worthy hues that have been the focus po...
Our Editors Agree, These 5 London Fashion Brands Are the Very Best
Elinor Block, says: “It’s rare to find a brand that’s been going for such a short time and yet has already made quite the impact. Designer duo, Marco Capaldo and Federica Cavenati, co-founders of 16Arlington showcased their first collection at London Fashion Week in 2019 and already have A-list fans, including Lena Dunham and Alexa Chung. In a world of copycat minimalists, 16Arlington injected some much needed fun into fashion week with the brand’s take on partywear. While there are plenty of feathered creations from the brand, there was something about this hot pink dress that caught my eye. I wouldn’t usually go for such a strappy dress but as I’m contemplating the new ’roaring ‘20s’ and what that will mean for my wardrobe, I’m definitely open to suggestions. Plus, when...

I Asked the Experts What Perfumes Everyone Will Want This Year
It’s safe to say that I adore perfume. It has the unique ability to transform your frame of mind with just one spritz—evoking nostalgic memories and lifting your mood like no other beauty product can. However, having such an emotional connection to fragrance means that I tend to play it pretty safe when it comes to the perfumes that I wear. Unlike my makeup bag which I switch up regularly to experiment with new colours and textures, my perfume wardrobe stays pretty much the same all year round. I know which types of scents I like—musky vanilla, heady patchouli and modern rose, FYI—and I gravitate towards them time and time again. This year, however, something has changed. I’m not sure if it’s those first glimmers of spring sunshine or t...
5 Trending Colours H&M Is Backing In a Big Way for Spring
H&M has proven itself to be the high street brand to beat over the last twelve months, with countless of its pieces achieving cult status. It’s actually been frustrating for us editor types, whose job is to bring you the best new buys before they sell out, as they’ve already gone before we get the chance. So, we’ve had to up our game. We find ourselves checking H&M’s new-in section almost by the hour on the off chance that we missed the next big thing on our previous scroll. In doing so, we’ve been able to ascertain a few things. 1) That shackets are still proving popular for the brand, as they seem to have five new styles every time we check. 2) That oversized dresses are going to be just as prevalent for the season ahead as last year. And 3) tha...
Only Zoë Kravitz Could Convince Me to Try This Footwear Trend
Zoë Kravitz is one of the few celebrities who possesses the rare talent to make just about anything look cool. Whether she’s on a red carpet in a fitted gown (when that kind of thing is allowed) and opera gloves or at an event in a shirt and black skinny jeans, Kravitz has the inimitable ability to make each and every look feel incredibly modern. Case in point? Zoë’s love of loafers. While the classic shoe may have come back into fashion’s good books a few years back when Alessandro Michele created Gucci’s fur-lined iteration, it’s since the start of 2021 that we’ve seen a sudden passion for the sensible leather flats once more. But Kravitz, as always, was well ahead of this curve. This time last year she was wearing loafers on repeat, when eve...
It’s Official: We’re Not Taking Off This High-Street Jumpsuit Until April
If there’s one word which best summarised our autumn/winter 2020 wardrobe, it would have to be “woollen.” Whether it’s knitted vests, jumper dresses, chunky cable-knit jumpers, or cheeky cashmere joggers, it was the fabric which best matched our mood over the preceding six months, and it shows no sign of changing as we remain home-centered for the foreseeable future.

7 Low-Effort Makeup Looks I’d Like to Copy and Paste From Instagram
It’s been a long time since I’ve worn makeup (aside from dabbing a little concealer under my eyes for early morning school drop-offs that is). With almost a year spent working and staying home, you would be right to assume that my makeup bag has started gathering cobwebs in the corner of my bathroom. As someone who never used to leave the house without wearing mascara and lipstick, I have rather missed my makeup! While I predominantly turned my focus to skincare in 2020—which is certainly not a bad thing—this year I’m officially ready to liven up my visage with makeup again. Because the reality is a little makeup makes me feel strong, confident, and ready to tackle the day—even if it’s just a simple look. In fact, easy, low-effort makeup l...
Sienna Miller Just Wore the Perfect Spring Dress—And It’s Only £35
Here at Who What Wear, we love to support British labels. It’s even better when they’re home-grown and sustainably minded. Add an affordable price point into the mix, and you have the ultimate fashion triple threat. London-based label Nobody’s Child is just that. The brand prides itself on its eco-conscious ethos, which includes partnerships with ethical factories and a focus on zero-waste manufacturing. Evidently, we aren’t the only ones who have noticed that Nobody’s Child is a brand on the rise, as historically celebrities including Fearne Cotton, Holly Willoughby and Candice Brathwaite have all championed the label. Though, today might mark the brand’s most prominent celebrity spotting yet, as the ever-stylish Sienna Miller was just s...
