Fashion loves a curated, high-level mood board, so when I walked into the Area studio to meet their new creative director Nicholas Aburn, I was pleasantly surprised to be greeted by a wall of blurry screenshots with multiple eras of It Girls. It was both the antithesis and apotheosis of a curated reference deck. Think:…
Most fashion week parties require a few rounds of drinks before anyone starts dancing. At W Magazine & Bloomingdale’s New York Fashion Week party on Thursday, September 11, dancing started almost immediately thanks to Tory Burch, who arrived early and went straight to the dance floor as DJ Ross One played Pet Shop Boys’ “West…
Thursday may have marked the official start of fashion week, but over in midtown Manhattan, some of style’s biggest and brightest stars were eschewing front rows and designer bows for an evening of giving back.

The major news this Fashion Month is the epic creative-director shuffle, with 11 debut collections from fresh designers (that we know about, anyways) set to hit the runways.

And with stars like Lady Gaga, Doja Cat, Mariah Carey, and Sabrina Carpenter attending and performing at this year’s edition at the UBS Arena in New York, the stakes for bold fashion and unforgettable…
She cut her teeth as a model in the ‘90s and 2000s, but these days, Liberty Ross is more concerned with roller skating. Ross’ history with the sport runs deep: In 1979, her father Ian founded Flipper’s Roller Boogie Palace, a popular L.A. rink that quickly became home to future Academy Award-winning actors and West…
It’s all fun and fashion games until your dress is too short for the Pope. Linda Evangelista learned this the hard way in 1994, when she arrived at God’s palazzo in a babydoll dress by her friend Anna Sui. The wispy straps and bum-grazing hem proved too much for the priests on duty, and the…
As the sun sets on another European summer, the silver screen’s brightest stars and boldest directors have made their way to the historic canals of Italy for the 2025 Venice Film Festival.
