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

That same day Cabello did a quick costume change for the Giambattista Valli Haute Couture show, giving us a sultry underboob moment in a glamourous Barbiecore gown. Even though she wore her hair up in a topknot for the first show, she let it down in loose waves while updating her beauty look with a more dramatic lash and glossy lip. She topped the outfit off with a hot pink bag, embracing the fashion world’s current obsession with all things Barbie while still referencing past looks with the dress’s bold cutouts. For a moment, let’s return to the summer of… READ MORE

Met Gala 2023: Here’s What Happened at the Celebration of Karl Lagerfeld

Karl Lagerfeld, the German-born fashion designer who is the subject of this year’s Met Gala, liked to court controversy, his achievements on the runway often outshone by offensive blunders and tone-deaf remarks. His missteps could be monumental — in a literal sense. Consider the 28-foot-high “iceberg” that hovered imposingly over his fall 2010 ready-to-wear show.

But the gesture missed the mark, as it took six days and a continuously maintained temperature of 25 degrees… READ MORE
