Sighted: Clutch bags were rampant on the runways at NYFW and dangling on the wrists of many a trendsetter on the street. I’m not sure about you, but when I see a bitty bag tightly clamped under someone’s arm, my eyes go right to it. Sure, your first thought may be, “This is not 2003—y

There’s a famous quote, attributed variously to Dennis Hopper, George Harrison, and Robin Williams: “If you remember the ’60s, you weren’t there.” When it comes to menswear, however, it seems that the legacy of the 1960s is hard to forget. The styles that came to prominence in that storied decade, from mod-inspired sharp tailoring to

(Photo: iStock) In the last decade, the skincare industry has gotten really…complicated. Remember the days of the iconic three-step (three!) cleansing, toning and moisturizing system? Maybe an Oxy pad haphazardly swiped across a forehead here and there, during particularly trying periods. It was a simpler time. These days, thanks in large part to social media
SplashNews.com Kim Kardashian has another presidential notch in her belt, but she brought some backup this time — her sis, Kourtney Kardashian — for a tete-a-tete with Armenia’s big cheese.

Magicians. Fred Durst. Guys who like energy drinks, 4×4 pickup trucks and wearing their baseball cap back to front. Let’s face it, the list of notable goatee proponents doesn’t exactly read like a who’s who of people to take your grooming cues from. This precisely-groomed beard style have long been the subject of ridicule, but

Whether they’re reinventing themselves for a role, going for a post-baby or pre-wedding switch-up or just pulling a Kylie Jenner (a.k.a. changing their hair colour the way some people change underwear), celebs from the A-to-Z lists are making some big hair decisions this year, and we can’t get enough of their of-the-minute hair inspo.

Getty Hailey Bieber is finally ready to give it up — pictures of her in her wedding dress, that is. Mrs. Bieber just posted several professional shots of her wearing her custom backless gown, which was commissioned by Louis Vuitton’s artistic director for menswear, Virgil Abloh.

When it comes to clothing, brown’s name is mud. Brown shoes, fine. A belt, sure. But pretty much anything else in the colour has traditionally been shunned as unwelcome and unflattering. Brown is ugly, they say. It conjures up images of everything regrettable about 1970s style. That hasn’t stopped the world’s best designers from splashing

(Photo: iStock) I was once the person who’d brightly quip, “Zara!” whenever someone asked me what I was wearing. And why wouldn’t I? For the most part, Zara was cheap and cheerful retail therapy that supplied my wardrobe with a hit of runway-inspired trends every season. But lately, it feels like more of a guilty

Like most women who grew up in the 1990s I have some feelings about corduroy. (What, you don’t?) As a former fashion staple of the back-to-school season, my point of view on corduroy ultimately came down to being a super keener. I was a fan, especially around Grade 6 when I wore a corduroy blazer
In the bleak midwinter, as the carol doesn’t put it, you need knitwear. Today, there is a number of high-tech thermo-regulating fabrics that will keep you warm with greater efficiency, but, it must be said, not with the same style. Since knitting is one of the oldest means of making clothes, it’s natural that it
Giambattista Valli is all about making an entrance, whether it’s gowns in eye-catching prints, or a mini dress with an unforgettable train.

Play video content @Booth/X17online.com Gigi Hadid allowed a woman who jumped on the runway at Chanel’s spring 2020 show to have her fun for a few seconds … but then she stepped up and booted her ass out. The woman — who’s been ID’d as a YouTube comedian known as Marie S’Infiltre — awkwardly hopped
The transition from summer into the colder months brings with it many unpleasant changes: prolonged darkness, frigid temperatures and a woeful lack of ice cream vans, to name a few.

Few things in the male wardrobe are likely to link reigning monarchs and rockstars. Nonetheless, attracting wearers as diverse as this has been one of the Chelsea boot’s most notable achievements. Harking back to the 1850s, ankle boots (as they were simply known then) were invented by Queen Victoria’s shoemaker, J. Sparkes-Hall, as an alternative
