It’s the first Monday in May, and that means the Met Gala has arrived! After taking 2020 off due to the COVID-19 pandemic and delaying the event until September last year, we’re back on track with the fundraising gala for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute in New York.

The 2022 Grammys red carpet is here. Last week’s Oscars ceremony drew out glitzy, black-tie outfits from the silver screen’s shiniest stars, but tonight (April 3), it was the musicians who rocked the step-and-repeat in their most over-the-top ensembles. Though last year’s broadcast, held at the Staple Center in Los Angeles, was scaled down due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, it still delivered plenty of excellent sartorial moments, from Harry Styles’s fuzzy purple boa, to Phoebe Bridgers’s blinged-out bones, to the Haim sisters twinning in periwinkle Prada. Artists followed suit this year as they arrived at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, where the show took place for the first time, and the fashion did not disappoint. First-time honorees and circuit mainstays alike spar...

The MTV Video Music Awards are back, baby, airing live tonight (September 12) from Barclays Center in Brooklyn, which means the red carpet — and the big fits worn by the artists and celebrities who saunter down it — is also back, baby. Plenty of major fashion was flaunted in a video booth during last year’s largely remote ceremony, but there’s nothing quite like the feeling of surprise stirred by a well-executed entrance. And stars have had two years to revamp and recharge their wardrobes since Lil Nas X, Lizzo, Taylor Swift, and more sent sartorial shockwaves waves at 2019’s show, meaning music’s biggest lights are shining brighter than ever. Kacey Musgraves David Lee Roth Doja Cat Dove Cameron Jxdn and Nessa Shawn Mendes Lil Nas X Jack Harlow Tinashe...
The sartorial effect of Bridgerton continues to steadily shape our closets. Corsets have been reimagined for 2021 in relaxed and minimal silhouettes. And thanks to the expert styling of celebrities, editors, and fashion insiders, we have tons of fresh new takes on the structured top that has come in and out of fashion for centuries. Rihanna, Bella Hadid, and Dua Lipa are strong advocates for the return of the corset in 2021. Rihanna was spotted in a Western-inspired snake-print corset while shooting a video with A$AP Rocky in mid-July. Hadid wore a corset to attend the Dior dinner at the Cannes Film Festival and paired it with loose-fit tailored trousers for a more relaxed interpretation. Lipa wore a decadent gold Jean Paul Gaultier corset for her “Demeanor” music video release...
