I love my group of girlfriends, but sometimes it can be difficult for us all to get on the same page about certain things.

The Comme des Garçons (CDG) x Dover Street Market (DSM) Super-Market-Market sample sale in New York City is something like a fashion eclipse: It only comes around once every few years, and when it does, a select group of people completely lose their shit. The last time it happened, it was 2016. Discounts of up
I knew I was doomed the moment I turned 25. Psychologists say that’s the age when your brain is finally done developing, so any hopes of my genetically tragic neurochemistry changing evaporated right when I blew out those birthday candles. Dammit. I started showing severe anxious tendencies before first grade, and it turned depressive soon
On a recent morning, Anna Chiu, co-founder of the womenswear brand Kamperett, received an email from somewhere over the Pacific Ocean. An acquaintance from a few years back was on a flight to San Francisco, where she’d be hosting a TED Talk. Noticeably nervous and wanting to look and feel her best, her first order
Style Points is a weekly column about how fashion intersects with the wider world. On the spring 2024 runways, you famously couldn’t go five feet without running into a ruffle, rosette, or bow. Now, the style is devouring TikTok too, with ribbons adorning everything from TV remotes to chicken tenders. Fashion’s wave of sweetness may
Step inside the happiest place on earth: New York City vintage bridal salon Happy Isles.

There’s a certain type of adrenaline rush that comes with gliding down a fluffy, snow-capped mountain—you’re outside, breathing in the fresh alpine air, and taking in unparalleled views of the world around you, all while donning the best ski outfits for women.

In ELLE.com’s monthly series Office Hours, we ask people in powerful positions to take us through their first jobs, worst jobs, and everything in between. This month, we spoke to Emily Hikade, who left her career in the CIA to start a pajama brand after a near-death experience on an airplane. “I was heading to
“Honestly, I don’t fuck with Molly anymore,” were Issa’s foreshadowing words just three minutes into the plot-busting Blocc Party episode of Insecure season 4. What ensued just moments later was one of the most dramatic, public bestie-breakups in the history of television. For seasons, the friction between on-screen BFFLs, Issa and Molly had been brewing,
Once upon a time, there were rules in fashion—like, say, giving white clothing a full stop after Labor Day. Our attitudes have since changed into a new modus operandi: anything goes. Henceforth, the new style manifesto—in both the fashion industry and social media—is an open call for everyone to wear whatever, whenever. Birkenstocks, once viewed
As a Latina who has spent years wrestling with the idea that straightening my hair is the easier way to manage it, I can attest to the power of societal beauty standards and the convenience of conformity. I often used the excuse that straight hair required less maintenance and was the path of least resistance.
In fashion, the best 2023 trends came in as quickly as the months flew by.

When it’s cold outside, it’s tempting to stay inside. And for beauty maximalists, in particular, wintertime offers the chance to embrace being antisocial and try some products and procedures that call for rest and recovery. If you’ve heard people talking a lot about Morpheus—and then quickly realized they weren’t discussing a character from The Matrix—this
The world knows that Olympic skier Mikaela Shiffrin is fast: She has two gold medals, one silver, and 90 World Cup wins, resetting the record previously held by a man.

Aging is an inevitable part of life, but not everyone loves every aspect of it. Dealing with the skin changes that come with growing older is particularly challenging, and perhaps the most stubborn area to manage is the neck. “In addition to variables like gender and genetic predisposition, certain lifestyle factors like smoking, drinking, and
Just the mere mention of artificial intelligence within the fashion industry ignites a certain fight-or-flight response. It tends to be seen as a negative thing, with models being replaced, or shoppers being tracked by these advancements. Very seldom do we acknowledge the benefits of working alongside technology for the better good of, well, everyone. But
Scarlett Johansson may not have an Instagram account, or social media for that matter, but trust and believe she’s living. The New York native can be spotted around Manhattan, and recently, she took her daughter, Rose Dorothy, to see The Outset display at Sephora. “She became obsessed with a freckle pen, so I just had
It finally happened: All over the spring 2024 runways, there were polos with popped collars, leggings, and, most of all, belts on every single thing, every single way, from Miu Miu to Ralph Lauren. Maybe you remember the heyday of this style. It’s so oddly specific not just of Y2K, but of early to mid-2000s

Kerby Jean-Raymond knows how to send a political message. The Haitian-American designer of Pyer Moss regularly takes cues from his revolutionary roots in order to disrupt the world around him. In 2016, his spring menswear line called attention to police brutality and the Black Lives Matter movement. Three years later, his collection shown at Brooklyn’s
The close of a year beckons a period of introspection. Many people assess their year by measuring achievements, I reflect on the year through the lens of scents.
