How Global Luxury Travel Trends Will Impact Fashion

Tapping into the touristic expenditure of wealthy consumers has long been a cornerstone of the luxury industry. In 2022, it was not just at home that Americans continued to shop — as pandemic-related travel restrictions lifted, shopping in Europe was made even more attractive to Americans bolstered by a strong dollar against the euro and pound sterling. Luxury brands in Europe cited American tourists as a key driver of increased first-half sales, including a 47 percent rise at LVMH and 53 percent rise at Kering, according to the company’s financial reporting. However, while traveling Americans mattered most last year, this year it will certainly be the Chinese consumer once again. In a recent McKinsey & Co. survey, 40 percent of Chinese travelers said they wanted their next trip to be international. While Hong Kong became accessible...

Shein Instagram, TikTok influencer backlash exposes fast fashion dark side

Shein is one of the most lucrative fast fashion brands on the planet. The Chinese online retailer, which has quickly become a staple of social media, was valued at $100 billion in 2022 — that’s more than Zara and H&M combined. But Shein now faces a firestorm of criticism over a highly choreographed PR junket featuring fashion influencers seen as an attempt to rehabilitate a company that has faced slew of accusations, including human rights violations and complaints about shoddy clothing materials. The backlash has exposed multiple interlocking problems endemic to the fast fashion industry and the influencer economy.

Diane Kruger On British Style And Her Subversive Serpentine Party Look

“It definitely feels a little online for me,” says Diane Kruger of her look for the Serpentine Gallery’s annual summer party. “But, you know, if not now… then when?” The last star attended the event 16 years ago, and her sheer tutu and bustier and dominatrix-inflected thigh-high boots for the party on Tuesday night were certainly far removed from the floaty, Grecian-inspired white gown she chose in 2007. “I feel like maybe I like to have a little more fun and be a little more adventurous than back then,” Kruger says now. “I’m still drawn to similar silhouettes, but I like dressing outside of my comfort zone more.” Enter David Koma, the Tbilisi-born designer famous for being every London It-girl’s first port of call for a sizzling party outfit. (He also recently helped a certain Kendall...

Camila Cabello Checked Off the Barbiecore and Sheer Dress Trends at Paris Fashion Week

Camila Cabello has completely elevated her go-to summer pieces to suit Paris Fashion Week. Don’t get me wrong, Cabello didn’t sacrifice her sense of style to fit in with any one brand or current trend, instead, she took her favorite items to the next level. For one: short shorts. In the summer of 2022, the “Señorita” singer helped usher in the resurgence of super short shorts, pairing a pair of Gucci hot pants with a matching oversized blazer over a sheer black lace bustier for an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Even when going for a casual look, she opted for a pair of tiny Daisy Dukes for Coachella that same year. Despite oversized jorts taking center stage in 2023, Cabello stuck with her guns for the Iris Van Herpen Haute Couture show...

8 Casual Office Outfits to Wear on Repeat

Do you ever stop and just appreciate the fact that we live in an era where casual office dresses are a thing? I honestly have on more than one occasion (I type while wearing a lemon print sundress and a pair of blue western boots). While there are plenty of employers who still maintain a formal dress code or expect “business casual” at the very least, some of us are fortunate to work for those who have adopted a casual dress code (or observe casual Fridays—a win is a wins!). But with great freedom and flexibility can come great confusion—and maybe even a little dressing anxiety. If you’ve ever found yourself wondering what exactly a “casual office dress code” entails and afterward wondered what that means for getting dressed in the morning, you’ve come to the...
