When the no-trouser trend appeared on the runway in September, I knew right away that it would be controversial and, therefore, a huge hit in fashion. Moreover, when brands such as Victoria Beckham, Bottega Veneta, and Khaite are the ones responsible, you know a trend has legs—pun intended. With none other than Kendall Jenner having just debuted the buzzed-about look that started it all, it appears my predictions were spot-on. Seen in L.A. between shoots for the luxury retailer Fwrd, where she’s creative director, Jenner wore a chunky navy-blue sweater with black briefs and heels—no trousers in sight. The bottomless ensemble came practically straight off Matthieu Blazy’s Bottega Veneta S/S 23 runway, be...
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: 2020HHA / Getty Rapper Big Sean and his longtime partner singer Jhené Aiko have welcomed a son—their first child together. Both of the stars shared photos of their welcome addition on Instagram. Aiko wrote, “11/08/22 Noah Hasani,” with stars and blue heart emoji added. The photos were shared more than two weeks after she gave birth. Big Sean also shared several photos over the weekend, with a caption that read, “After 24 hours of Labor, A Lunar Eclipse, with rain from the beginning of labor til he was born, he’s here safe and sound,” he wrote. “Happy, Healthy and everything we could ever ask for and more. Any and everything for you Son.” Aiko also shared birthday wishes to her 14-year-old daughter Namiko over the weekend. According to Ma...
That’s not to say, however, that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley only ever wears well-known, high-end designers. Through her Instagram feed, I discovered brands I didn’t previously know. Marcéla London, for one, has become one of my favourites. She’s also a fan of Bec & Bridge, the Australian label I’ve bought a couple of my most-worn dresses from. She’s known to find the chicest-looking pieces from Zara, too. So, naturally, when looking for inspiration for my winter wardrobe, I head straight to Huntington-Whiteley’s social media and begin saving down my favourite looks. During this process, I’ve quickly identified the key pieces that make up her autumn/winter capsule wardrobe. Because I try to be a nice person, I’ve decided to share them with you below. Scroll on to see...
Finding a fashion editor whose brain isn’t an encyclopedia of Kate Moss looks from the ’90s is about as rare as a Vivienne Westwood corset that costs less than £1,000 secondhand. It’s practically a bullet point in our job descriptions. So when I saw the supermodel’s graphite-coloured, vintage “naked” dress from Turner Vintage that she wore on Wednesday night to celebrate her appointment as creative director of Diet Coke (iconic), my mind went straight to another, albeit slightly tamer, silhouette she wore nearly 30 years prior. Yes, I’m talking about Moss’s completely sheer, silver slip that she wore in September of 1993 to an Elite Model Agency party in London. Often included in any evolution of the&nb...

In the winter, a good coat has the power to make anything look good, even if it’s just a groutfit (that’s grey outfit) and trainers. No one understands this and uses it to their advantage quite as masterfully as Hailey Bieber, as proven by one of her most recent ensembles. For a lunch date at Matsuhisa in L.A., the model transformed her all-grey sweatsuit, dad sneakers, and baseball cap into an outfit worth writing about, all thanks to the addition of a Wardrobe.NYC coat from her recent collaboration with the brand. (Her grey Bottega Veneta Mini Jodie bag, which she’s been carrying a lot lately, didn’t hurt.) With broad, padded shoulders, sharp lapels, and a buttery, camel-coloured finish, her choice of outerwear is a thing of beauty. There̵...
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced yesterday (Nov. 15) that The City of New York will partner with the Universal Hip-Hop Museum to launch 50 events and fundraisers during 2023 honoring the 50th anniversary of Hip-Hop. As seen in a news clip from CBS News, Adams took the stage alongside community leaders and Hip-Hop stars and luminary personalities dressed in a black and white adidas tracksuit in an apparent homage to Run DMC. “What we’re saying in ‘Hip-Hop is 50’ is that Hip-Hop has grown up in a manner that they are not going to be exploited,” Adams said, per theGrio. “As we talk about education in school, as we talk about the products that are going to be sold, we’re looking at the economics of Hip-Hop,” he added. ...
Whilst out and about in New York City this week, Carey Mulligan has taken chic London-girl style to the Big Apple. As we know, there’s a particular style that comes naturally to the capital’s fashion set. It perfectly balances the laid-back air of city-dwellers alongside a penchant for a minimalist wardrobe. Though this effortlessly cool style may feel like something you’re born with, Carey’s latest looks prove that there’s a simple formula behind looking great every time, and its as easy as one, two, three. (Well, boots, trousers, coat). It seems like overnight autumn was swept away and winter has officially arrived. The days are getting darker and the cold weather has well and truly set in, making getting up and dressed in the ...
