The Matches Sale Is Incredible—25 Cult Buys From The Row, Frankie Shop and More
There are so many sales out there right now it can be hard not to get overwhelmed and to know which ones are really worth your time. Personally, rather than browse randomly and end up panic-buying stuff I don’t need (and missing the best bits), I try to go in with a calm, considered approach. This mainly involves focusing in on a couple of key sales from my favourite shopping destinations and approaching them with thought-out lists. Said lists will include items I buy regularly (like these incredible beauty bargains), classic items that are currently on my wish list and cult buys that I’ve been searching for for a while. This year, after researching a lot of sales so that I could report back on the best Black Friday clothing deals to you, I can confirm that one you won’...
This Year’s Most Popular Wide-Leg Trousers Are On Sale for a Few More Hours
My top pick, however, has to be the brand’s Mason Pants. The perfect wide-leg trousers—and I don’t say that lightly. I’ve tried a lot of wide-legs in my time and these are the only pair I’ve actually invested in this year. They were so good, in fact, that I bought them in both beige and black, and now I’m rarely spotted without them. Unsurprisingly, they’re one of the brand’s best-selling hero products, and come in eleven colours as well as petite and extended sizing options. Made from unbelievably comfortable TENCEL™ Lyocell, a more sustainable fabric that also happens to fall perfectly, there’s no bulky pockets or unflattering pleats in sight. Kaia Gerber is also a fan—she was spotted wearing her brown pair to the farmer’s market in LA earlier this year. She’s right, they’re ...
Yes, This Cosy Instagram-Famous Cardigan Is In the Cyber Monday Sale
We know by now that Reformation can be relied upon for many wardrobe winners. Things like beautiful dresses you can pull out summer after summer (if it’s good enough for J.Lo, it’s good enough for us), cult denim styles—and now the brand is adding knitwear to that list. In line with their sustainable ethos, Ref recently dropped a conscious cashmere collection that did not come to play. But there’s one particularly cosy piece from the winter-ready edit that has been swiftly picked up by some of the best-dressed people I know—the Fantino cardigan. Reformation’s Fantino cardigan isn’t your regular cardigan. Firstly, it’s made from 90% recycled cashmere, meaning 87% less of the carbon impact than conventional cashmere but still with “100% of the cuteness”, according to the...
Spring/Summer 2023 Fashion Trends: The 21 Looks You Need to Know About
Spanning four cities, over 350 designer showcases and more celebrity model moments than you can shake a roll of body tape at, ask anyone in attendance, and they’ll tell you that Fashion Month was back at its biggest and brightest for spring/summer 2023. Having pivoted from perching on the front row to sitting in front of our laptops (cup of tea in hand) for the past few seasons, we expected some designers to entirely forgo the frivolity of “real-life” fashion shows in favour of the digital experience. This, however, was not the case; in fact, not a single virtual invitation landed in my inbox. Instead, with a 45% increase in shows compared to autumn/winter 2022, designers appeared to come to the collective agreement that being together will always be better. And...

Phaidon Chronicles the Legacy of Luna Luna in New Book
In lieu of recent news that Drake emerged as a surprise patron for the long-defunct Luna Luna amusement park, Phaidon will chronicle the unique art festival in a new book releasing early next year. Back in the 1980s, Austrian artist André Heller conceived an ambitious project that saw him travel the world convincing his favorite artists to create fully functional one-of-a-kind artworks such as rides, interactive sculptures, games, performances, and music. Keith Haring, David Hockney, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Roy Lichtenstein and Salvador Dalí were some of the many legends of art history who partook in this endeavor, which opened to the public once in Hamburg in 1987. [embedded content] Heller had plans to tour the park around the globe, but a series of financial and legal setbacks nixed the p...
Pol-Edouard Teases EXTERMINADOR TOY Action Figure
If Streets of Rage met Terminator, you’d have a great starting point to describe the artwork of Pol-Edouard. Based in Paris, the artist is heavily inspired by ’80s video games, science-fiction novels and apocalyptic films, such as Mad Max 2, Waterworld and Escape from New York. He fuses these characters and settings to envision what the world would be like if the ‘end times’ were to occur. “We’ll never know what the future is going to be like,” said the artist in a past interview. “Take smartphones, there is no example of smartphones in old movies but as an artist, I’m not afraid of making my own vision of the future, like robots in the 50s with big light bulbs for eyes or futuristic green and black computer screens. I think that my cyborg drawings are already retro-futuristic.” Pol-Edouar...

This Expert-Approved Technique Is Set to Be the Next Big Skincare Trend
The basic gist is that short contact therapy reduces the potential for active ingredients to irritate your skin, but it also means you can reap their many skin clearing benefits. “For those prone to breakouts or moderate acne, short contact therapy can be really beneficial,” says Perry. “Ingredients such as benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid can sometimes dry out or irritate skin if used too frequently, so this is a great to way to tap into their acne-fighting properties.” And of course, if you have sensitivity, this is a great technique to try if you’re previously found that active ingredients trigger redness and inflammation. “A notorious side effect of topical retinoids is irritant contact dermatitis,” explains Perry. This condition occurs when skin is repeatedly exposed to a...
