It hasn’t been 100 percent confirmed yet, but it’s safe to say that you’ll be seeing Ariana Grande on even more billboards, and wearing lots of Givenchy. The French house and designer Clare Waight Keller posted a video of a silhouette of someone with a super-high, long ponytail and a jawline that could cut someone. […]
Last Thursday at the Tribeca Film Festival, the luxury lifestyle brand MCM debuted a documentary called The Remix: Hip-Hop x Fashion. The film shines a light on the innovators of hip-hop fashion, especially the women of color. Those people include Mary J. Blige; the trailblazing streetwear designer April Walker, who is the mastermind behind the […]
NXIVM, an organization that allegedly brainwashed and blackmailed women into being “sex slaves,” has crumbled in the past year. In March 2018, its founder, Keith Raniere, was arrested and charged with sex trafficking for his role in the group, which then set off a domino effect: In the ensuing months, federal prosecutors would go on to charge […]

Jean-Raymond himself, who was styled by Eric […]
When I was newly sober in 2016, mushrooms were the first thing that hooked me back into the world. Not magic mushrooms, just regular ones growing near where I lived. For whatever reason, finding them (in the wild) and chronicling them (on my phone) felt like a path back to life. There were more out […]
Georgia has become the sixth state to ban abortion at six weeks: On Tuesday, Governor Brian Kemp signed a draconian bill into law that outlaws all abortions after six weeks — before most women even realize they’re pregnant — including in cases of rape or incest. It joins five other states that have passed similar […]
Watching National Geographic’s Free Solo is not for the faint of heart. The documentary chronicles rock climber Alex Honnold’s successful ascent up the vertical rock formation El Capitan without a single safety rope. As harrowing as it might be, the movie is also a love story between Honnold and his girlfriend, Sanni Mccandless. The combination […]
