  After a year of primarily virtual debuts, the Fall 2021 Haute Couture shows came back in full force in Paris this week, delivering on a promise of — and desire for — grandeur, excitement and fantasy. The presentations themselves gave us plenty to talk about. There was an impressive Balenciaga debut. There was a rain delay that only heightened the anticipation for a historic Pyer Moss show. There was a meeting of the minds at Jean Paul Gaultier. There were skydivers in Iris van Herpen gowns. And the clothes are clearly resonating: A handful of looks from these just-unveiled couture lines have already walked the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival.  

   In the fifth episode of the glitzy coat (and erotic jacket) collection “Only Killers in the Building,” amateur detective and novice podcaster Mabel Mora (Selena Gomez) is disbelieving. death during dubbing builds suspense. Comparing her teddy bear wipes to the overpriced “Flaming Hot Cheetos” in Tribeca, “Ttie-Dye Guy” is about to be revealed: “Those relationships? Overvalued like f.” *ck. However, unlike that coat. That… is priceless. It’s special, just like her.” Mabel is wearing what we call a “statement jacket,” which sends messages about self-expression, personal style, and the practicality (and fun) of the hobby – all without no need to say a word. Granted, in this case, Sies Marjan’s virgin wool coat (below), customized with leopard print lining by costume designer Dana Covarrubias, also played a script part in the murder mystery. engaging and full of laughter: “Each of these characters, they’re either ‘held up, or are clinging to their past and can’t let go,’ she sa...

   For Fall 2021, Stella McCartney is tapping into the prospect of — and hope for — “a new beginning.” In a virtual conference with global press, the designer spoke about beginning to work on this collection amid a tough winter and another wave of lockdowns in the U.K., all of which made her realize: “There was light and there will be light at the end of the tunnel.” That optimism is the driving force behind a really colorful, richly textured Fall 2021 line that makes you want to go out dancing (when it’s safe, of course).The first thing you’ll notice, McCartney noted, is the “really bold, quite rich color” — whereas spring was “gentle, sweet and uplifting in its coloration,” the autumnal color palette represents almost a “fighting spirit.” “It’s a very powerful collection, in that I’ve felt and all of my team and many loved ones wanted to feel like we could truly escape into the world of fashion,” McCartney said. Other seasons, the designer continued, she might’ve emphasized ...

   After skipping the Spring 2021 ready-to-wear season, Oscar de la Renta returned to fashion month on Tuesday with its autumnal line, which takes florals to new extremes. According to a press release, co-creative directors Fernando García and Laura Kim worked with Tricia Paoluccio to reinterpret her pressed flower artwork into a collection of day dresses, separates and gowns using embroidery, crocheting and appliqués on fil coupé, cotton, taffeta and silk faille. The end result is “a tribute to late summer, when sunflowers and wildflowers radiate in glorious full bloom,” the brand notes. Beyond literal prints and embellishments, the floral inspiration of this collection translates to a color palette heavy on purples, pinks, turquoises and saffrons, seen across suiting, monochromatic dresses and eveningwear. There are also delicate bow details spotted throughout, meant to evoke the ribbon used to tie a bouquet of market flowers, the press release explains. (Once again, the bra...

   Milan Fashion Week has drawn to a close and we’ve now turned our attention to Paris for even more Fall 2021 newness. But before we wrap up the season, we want to take the time to appreciate our favorite street-style moments from the past few days in Italy. Milan’s showgoers took full advantage of the opportunity to step out of their work-from-home pajamas into actual outfits worth admiring: There were plenty of slick leather jackets worn with fun flared pants; a bunch of relaxed denim paired with chunky sneakers and classic winter essentials; and a few colorful pieces that reminded us just how joyful getting dressed can be. See our favorite street-style looks from Milan Fashion Week in the gallery below. Then, check out the top runways trends from this season in Italy, if you’re so inclined.

    While showing seasonal collections through short films can open up a whole new way of creative expression, there is something to be said for the flattening effect that digital formats can have on the pants themselves. shirt.

     We don’t have to wait long to see the full range of runway collections inspired by the new version of “Gossip Girl”.   On Wednesday, Fernando García and Laura Kim held a runway show at 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge in New York City to showcase Monse’s Fall 2021 collection. The lookbook was photographed and sent to buyers earlier this year, but it was never released to the public or the press; However, it did fall into the hands of “Gossip Girl” costume designer Eric Daman, who later placed Jordan Alexander’s Julien Calloway in an oversized sweater dress from the line, as one of many new hems on the top. Constance Billard’s uniform seen in the HBO Max sequel.

     The first Black American to present haute couture as a guest of the Chambre Syndicale paid homage to Black innovation. A rain delay couldn’t put a damper on Kerby Jean-Raymond’s haute couture debut for Pyer Moss, which finally walked on Saturday afternoon. The original time slot assigned by the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture might not have worked out (not that the crowd assembled in Irvington, New York on Thursday minded — it was quite the party), but Haute Couture Fashion Week was willing to wait. Same goes for the guests, who came together at Madam C.J. Walker’s Villa Lewaro a second time over the weekend, eager to witness fashion history. With the Wat U Iz show, Jean-Raymond became the first Black American to present a couture collection as a guest of the Chambre Syndicale. And the designer used the opportunity to pay homage to a long, often overlooked history of Black innovation. Referencing a list housed in the Library of Congress, Jean-Raymond showed a s...

They run towards the struggle.” Nina Hallworth styled the Duchess for the cover (Serge Normant did the hair, while Linda Hay did the makeup), while the Duke was worn by Clare Hallworth.

   Though it wasn’t the sleek Art Deco-inspired nightclub that Ralph Lauren created to show his black-tie heavy Fall 2019 collection, the designer’s Covid-safe Spring 2021 collection debut was still pretty fabulous. Shot in black-and-white, Ralph Lauren’s 20-minute digital presentation felt like stepping into an old film, set at its iconic Beverly Hills Flagship, with an energizing musical performance by Janelle Monáe. “My designs have always been about creating a world that is beyond fashion, a world of romance and timeless sophistication,” Lauren, said in a release. “For Spring 2021, my collections for both men and women intertwine those feelings and express a personal style that is modern and enduring.” Without the sense of romantic sophistication dreamt up in the virtual show, the clothes themselves do what the designer is good at: dress those that want to look like the American dream.

   The Fall 2021 shows charge on, albeit sparser and stranger than usual. As designers showcased their latest collections in Milan, backstage glam teams brought creativity, color and artfulness out in full force (well, as best they could in these odd times). This season, the Italian fashion capital displayed a vivid array of hair and makeup inspiration alongside its collections, making for some truly mesmerizing beauty moments. For the Prada runway, makeup artist Dame Pat McGrath, inspired by “change and transformation,” painted mismatched metallic hues across models’ eyelids: “The look was a fusion of masculine and feminine with a focus on sublimely perfected skin with the high points of the face illuminated,” she said. “[The] eyes explored opposing metallics, silver and gold, with a powerful look that juxtaposed molten metals with the power of pastels in lavender.” Pure Pat magic. The busy backstage legend also worked her wonders at Valentino and Dolce & Gabbana, re-imag...

   We’ve come to expect Instagram-breaking show closures from Donatella Versace: Last season, the Italian designer transported us underwater, and a year before that, she brought us J.Lo. But for Fall 2021, the master of flash didn’t have any tricks up her sleeve. The all-star model lineup — which included Gigi Hadid’s return from maternity leave — walked on in an industrial-looking, concrete-paved runway lined by wooden block structures made to look like a 3D maze. The labyrinth-inspired catwalk was an introduction to Versace’s new signature print: A more geometric iteration of the brand’s iconic La Greca motif, which features sharp angles, clean lines and a strong palette. According to the collection notes, the reworked pattern represents “power and self-confidence.” With a more modern motif came more contemporary daywear: streamlined silhouettes featuring rounded shoulders and cinched waists dominated the womenswear offering. Versace showed minimal shapes on the bottom half ...

  Gabriela Hearst’s first collection for Chloé was released on what would have been the hundredth birthday of the house’s founder, Gaby Aghion. While Hearst made moves that nodded to the house’s DNA, like filming the audience-less, digital show in a part of Paris where Aghion once debuted her first show, there were also plenty of Hearst signatures, from the presence of ponchos to the well-considered leather bags. Perhaps the most significant Hearst-ism wasn’t a visual signature, but an ideological one: Hearst jumped into her first collection for the new house with her ecological consciousness in tact. She claimed in a press release that Chloé’s Fall 2021 collection could be considered “four times more sustainable compared to last year,” presumably referring to the house’s standards one year ago. She went on to explain that she got there by “eliminating virgin synthetic fiber (polyester) or artificial cellulosic fiber (viscose) and sourcing recycled, reused and organic denim,” addin...
