As Avril Lavigne’s “What the Hell” blares, Charli D’Amelio and three Prada models stride toward the camera. The tune, from 2011, probably qualifies as a golden oldie for D’Amelio, who was about six when it hit the airwaves. The 15-year-old TikTok star was a front-row guest this season at Prada, posting several videos of herself

Due to the rapid spread of COVID-19, the demand for face masks has been higher than the U.S. supply can currently support. Healthcare workers — who are on the frontlines battling the virus — are finding that there is not enough personal protective equipment (PPE) to keep them safe. In a medical setting, surgical masks

Edward BerthelotGetty Images Fashion brands (at least the good ones) are informed by the zeitgeist. They cull the best from the worlds of cuisine, books, art, music, interiors, and beyond, and infuse that into their collections. They are magpies, creating distinctive nests—their boutiques and displays at retail outlets—that aim to captivate consumers. But in the

I met Susanna Merrick-Klinkbeil while waiting for the phone booths at The Wing in New York’s SoHo. I asked her what kind of work she did, but she demurred, implying that she didn’t have time to explain just then, but I could come find her later if I was still curious. This reticence piqued my

Allegra Shaw remembers a time, three or four years ago, when packages from brands—clothes and beauty products sent in the hope that Shaw, a YouTuber with nearly a million followers, would dedicate a video to them—came equipped with confetti explosions and television screens. “When you get a TV in a package, how do you dispose

When Dr. Deborah Birx delivers indispensable information on the federal government’s response to the pandemic, she does it in Hermès. The doctor is one of two women on the White House task force trying to slow the spread of an outbreak that, at the time of publication, has claimed more than 17,800 American lives. And

Pascal Le SegretainGetty Images Changes are afoot at Givenchy. After three years at the helm, Clare Waight Keller has stepped down from her role as Givenchy’s artistic director. In a statement shared with WWD, Keller explained, “Focusing on a world based on haute couture has been one of the highlights of my professional journey.” The

It all started because DeRay Mckesson was cold. In 2014, when the school administrator–turned–activist set out to drive from his home in Minneapolis to Ferguson, Missouri, to protest the police shooting of Michael Brown, he threw on a blue vest he’d bought five years earlier on a trip to New York City. Soon, images of

Every night around 7 P.M. Nashville time, Karen Elson beams onto Instagram. “A song a day keeps the blues away,” types the redhead, before launching into acoustic covers of jazz, rock n’ roll, and folk. The 41-year-old leans against custom wallpaper by the artist Costanza Theodoli-Braschi and wears all kinds of things—a T-shirt from the

My days in self-isolation go as such: Wake up and immediately check my phone in panic. (Read the slacks I’ve missed, New York Times push updates, emails from my mom portending the end of humanity as we know it.) Make coffee and refuse to turn on the news while my fiancé takes care of all

Last year, the Swedish Fashion Council made an unprecedented move while planning the annual Stockholm Fashion Week: They canceled the event entirely, citing concerns about its environmental impact. Not everyone in fashion is taking such drastic measures, of course, but it spoke to the urgent need for action on the issue, one that designers and

I first heard about the novel coronavirus on January 19 in my home in Shenzhen. Just the day before, my office had closed for the Chinese New Year break. At the time, the situation didn’t seem very serious, and like many, I was preparing for my holiday travels. On January 23, I traveled from China

This morning, a representative from the brand confirmed that acclaimed shoe designer Sergio Rossi passed away Thursday, April 2nd in Cesena, Italy. The designer, who began designing shoes in 1950s after learning the trade from his father, launched his namesake label in 1968. Italy is renowned the world over for their exceptional accessories craftsmanship, and

Courtesy of Louis Vuitton I will accept that spring is indefinitely over, but I refuse to accept that summer is cancelled. They will have to pry the hope of beach getaways from my over-sanitized hands. I am staying home for the health of my country and the promise of outdoor drinking. If summer 2020 does

Courtesy Bethan Platform Mary Jane Dr. Martens drmartens.com $150.00 As a child, I wanted to attend Catholic school just so I could rebel. I fantasized about nuns getting mad at me for listening to and pretending to like The Used, sneaking out of Sunday service to smoke behind the church, and hiking up my uniform

While the coronavirus has upended the entire world, the fashion industry is feeling the affects hard. Over the past few weeks, the novel coronavirus outbreak has caused brands to shut down stores indefinitely, including Nike, Reformation, Everlane, Net-a-porter, and more, and post-poned the annual star-studded Met Gala event, which usually takes place in May. But

Today, the Ralph Lauren Corporate Foundation announced that it will be donating $10 million to help those affected by the virus. The funds will be split across different causes, including the Emergency Assistance Foundation, the World Health Organization’s COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund, and more. “Now more than ever, in this time of need, supporting each

With hand sanitizer and surgical masks becoming increasingly scarce due to the rapid spread of the coronavirus, some of fashion’s most recognizable names are stepping up to do their part to help combat the shortage. Last night, Gap Inc.—which includes the Gap, Old Navy, Athleta, Banana Republic, Intermix, Hill City, and Janie and Jack—announced on

Victor VIRGILEGetty Images As the cases of coronavirus climb higher each week, fashion companies have ramped up their efforts to mitigate its spread. Last week, luxury house LVMH began using its perfume factories to produce hand sanitizers for health authorities in France. Now, LVMH and fellow luxury goods company Kering are taking it a step

From the creators of the jade egg (for your yoni) and the $75 candle that smells like, well, Gwyneth Paltrow’s yoni, comes…activewear? Today, Goop introduced its first-ever foray into the designer world with G. Sport, an activewear line designed in collaboration with Proenza Schouler. If this was any other launch, Goop would’ve postponed it due

Claudio LaveniaGetty Images Kerby Jean-Raymond doesn’t follow the leader—he is one. With his brand, Pyer Moss, the New York–based designer creates collections that are directional (some argue that he was the catalyst for streetwear in luxury) and informed by the struggle of Black people in America. He operates on a different level from the rest

Like a good neighbor, Everlane has always been there for us. When we were on the hunt for a flattering pair of jeans that hug you in all the right places (no pesky back gap here!), they delivered. When we wanted to wrap ourselves in luxurious cashmere for half the cost we’d pay elsewhere, they

Daniele VenturelliGetty Images It wasn’t until the threat of a rapidly spreading, disruptive pandemic that people started to stock up on hand sanitizers. The New York Times reported that a man from Tennessee stockpiled 17,700 (!) bottles of hand sanitizer. (He’s since donated them). Take a trip to any local drugstore—or any grocery store, really—and

The shoe must go on. Jennifer Lopez was meant to be in her hometown of New York City today, where she was going to launch her new (and very good) footwear collection with DSW. Instead, like many of us, the hottest woman in the world is working from home. In her case, that means calling

Today, LVMH announced the eight finalists who are nominated for the 2020 LVMH Prize for Young Fashion Designers. The fashion house also announced that Rihanna, Virgil Abloh, and Stella McCartney will be on the jury to select the winners of both the LVMH and Karl Lagerfeld Prizes. The winners will be announced on June 5.

If Birkenstock’s 246-year history tells us anything, it’s that when a product is really good, it can outlast any trend. Slap a designer label on the cork-soled sandals beloved by cool moms, tech guys, and matcha latte-toting Brooklyn hipsters alike, and it’s undefeatable. From its goth fling with Rick Owens to seeing red with Italian

A woman can never have too many pants— and, no, I’m not talking about jeans. Denim is a tried-and-true wardrobe staple, but they don’t work for all occasions. Sure, you could wear jeans to a networking event, but don’t you deserve better? That said, everyone should have a pair that falls somewhere in between casual

If there was a Mount Rushmore for Virgil Abloh’s most coveted and adored sneaker collaborations, the Off-White x Air Jordan 1 sneaker (released in 2017) would be featured—a sneaker that currently costs upwards $3,000 on re-seller sites. That alone would be a tough act to follow, but Abloh’s love affair with Air Jordan is nowhere

I remember where I was standing. It was May 2006, and I was attending a book publishing convention when I felt the splash of hot coffee on my calves. And I remember what I was wearing: a Chloé prancing-horse skirt I’d purchased on a financially delusional whim five years prior. This was an item deeply

Lana Condor is not Lara Jean Covey. She might share the same face, voice, and (platonic) love for Noah Centineo, but she stays true to herself. With the bubbly energy of the child star she isn’t, her contagious positivity is instantly reassuring—and she’s generous to a fault. She really wants to talk about her love
