Getty Images/Mega/Instagram Style Points is a weekly column about how fashion intersects with the wider world. When this spring’s Met Gala, with its theme of “gilded glamour,” collided with the leaked draft of the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade ruling, there was plenty of talk about the cognitive dissonance of the two events—celebrities preening in

It’s a Bennifer world, and we’re just living in it. As you likely know, the newlyweds are currently on vacation in Europe, celebrating their recent milestone and having a ball. And, as with anything you could expect involving Jennifer Lopez—excuse me, Jennifer Affleck—they’re doing it in style. Any piece of clothing the triple threat cosigns

When it comes to the gold standard of denim brands, Agolde certainly vies for a spot among the best jeans brands for women. Whether you’re a long-time fan of the label or have been eager to try its quality, celeb-backed styles for a while, Net-a-Porter’s biggest sale of the year is giving you the best

The idea of a summer getaway never gets old, providing a respite from the heat and letting us (finally) turn off those Slack pings and disconnect. But what about a brief escape from reality? While we anxiously await gyrating on the dance floor to Beyoncé’s new album, Renaissance, Queen Bee is tiding us over with

Fall is the best season for footwear, and I won’t be convinced otherwise. Sure, summer sandals and strappy heels are liberating for your pedicure, but there’s something about the versatility of fall weather combined with that crisp air that makes dressing that much more exciting. This season, the runways were chock-full of trends both new

I love tattoos, much to my father’s dismay. I think they’re really cool. Some people say it’s too daunting to decide if they like something enough to wear on their skin forever, and I get that. It makes sense. But that’s not my problem. My struggle is more so that there are so many I’d

Christian VierigGetty Images Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale went public today, which means the retail behemoth’s biggest sale of the year is upon us. We’re enthused to report that the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale fashion deals are teeming with oh-so-good discounts, including some major price drops on designer pieces. That said, we’re just as excited to share that

If this summer has taught me anything, it’s the importance of an amazing overnight bag. Weekends by the beach are made significantly less luxurious when my clothes are everywhere and there’s nothing to keep my things in order. Ever suffered the same fate as me? Luckily, I found the perfect bag to solve all of

Ilya S. SavenokGetty Images There’s no denying Ugg continues to churn out amazing footwear, with its more recent Fluff Yeah slippers being no exception. We saw countless A-listers like Hailey Bieber, Gigi Hadid, Megan Fox, and Selena Gomez sport the cute, cozy shoes practically everywhere last summer, and it seems these days you can’t run

Finding a new handbag is like finding a new romantic partner. There are trusty handbags that will surely keep you satisfied, but there are also newcomers that bring an excitement you can’t ignore. While it feels like a lot of the major brands are recreating the same silhouettes over and over again, we’ve taken it

For millennials (and Gen Xers) of a certain age, there’s nothing novel about saying J.Crew’s swim assortment holds a special place in our hearts. Those were the catalog pages I studied most closely in high school, aspiring to move up from the department store suits my mom would buy for me. I still remember the

For a few years, the medium has been advancing an argument for why it still makes sense in the 2020s; see: last season’s futuristic, sci-fi take

Since taking the creative director reins at Balmain in 2011, Olivier Rousteing has presented collection after collection that seamlessly melds the maison’s heritage with modern-day panache. Baroque embroideries, utilitarian influences, and military details are deftly infused into each season’s offerings, with colors, silhouettes, and styling evolving to mirror the trends and predict the cultural zeitgeist.

Since 2021, the house of Jean Paul Gaultier has chosen a guest designer to put their spin on the provocateur’s signature style. This season, Balmain creative director Olivier Rousteing took the reins after a much-lauded outing in January from Y/Project designer Glenn Martens. When the first model in Rousteing’s fall 2022 couture show walked out—a

The line between what is fashion and what is art has always been blurry, whether you’re referencing Salvador Dali’s jewelry, or taking in the red carpet at the Met Gala. In 2022 we are comfortable with designers and/or artists whose work exists happily undefined somewhere amid these categories. When Elsa Schiaparelli was creating her work

The legend goes like this: In the 1970s, Atlanta native Paula Wallace, then an elementary school teacher, dreamed of a college in the south that would cater to students who wanted careers in the arts. A decade earlier, she’d cast about for a school like that for herself—one that would apply the same sort of

Christophe ArchambaultGetty Images It’s a strange time to be in fashion; not just to write about it and consume it, but also to create it. Even the mind-blowing artistry of a haute couture show, where one-of-a-kind garments are sewn together by practiced hands with millions of tiny stitches, can only temporarily distract from the world’s

If you ask Antwaun Sargent, walking into Virgil Abloh’s studio was like taking a trip into the many nautilus shell chambers of the late designer’s multi-disciplinary brain. “Takashi Murakami was

You don’t have to follow the trends or be versed in sartorial history to see that 1990s style is influencing today’s looks in a big way. From slouchy denim and spaghetti straps to bucket hats and minimalist sunglasses, everything we loved about the decade’s effortlessly chic attitude is back—and all over our social media feeds.

Givenchy’s seeing spots—literally. In the French fashion house’s second collaboration with the House of Mouse, creative director Matthew Williams is unveiling a limited-edition capsule adorned with the beloved pups from the 1961 animated hit 101 Dalmatians.

By the time Warren Lotas’ first store opened its doors in Los Angeles on a recent Saturday morning, hundreds of people had already queued up outside. Some had started camping out the night before, eager to get early access to a streetwear brand known for its namesake designer’s distinctive heavy metal-inspired, hand-painted illustrations and high-quality

Coach is something of a fashion unicorn these days. Humble beginnings in mid-1940s New York established the brand as a no-nonsense leather goods maker. That legacy continued throughout the 20th century, and eventually, it was cemented as an American success story, one replete with pebbled leather and the signature “C” monogram print. More recently, however,

Amazon is a treasure trove of hidden gems. Nearly every day, it seems as if another beloved name brand pops up on the platform, or we come across a new in-house label whose stylish-yet-affordable offerings quickly go viral. But unbeknownst to many, the mega e-tailer has an under-the-radar section of luxury apparel and accessories that’s

The only thing better than investing in a designer bag is finding one at a discount. But the problem is that brands like Louis Vuitton historically do not mark down products (in order to control brand image and value), and you’ll rarely find a Chanel bag on clearance in-store. The loophole? Shopping secondhand. We know,

As a shopping editor, I come across viral products on social media all the time. While I enjoy a useful cleaning tool or hidden shelf organizer, an unusually eye-catching item captured my attention today: a glass, bag-shaped vase-slash-aquarium that shoppers on Instagram have been posting about incessantly.
