You would think spies might dress down a bit, considering their entire job is to go unnoticed. Lots of beige. Nothing tailored beyond ‘easy fit’. Basically, they should look like an M&S mannequin, then you wouldn’t give them a second glance. Yet, thanks to the movies, we assume all spies are always dressed perfectly, both

Worn sockless and rolled up, or with a cardigan as a makeshift waistcoat, the traditional rules of tailoring are being ripped up by business casual and the relaxing of formal attire. But actor Matt Bomer is showing the purists that you can have your suit both ways – looking good either buttoned up like the

There’s a moment in Sex and the City when Carrie Bradshaw realizes she has $40,000 worth of shoes in her closet and no actual savings account. “I will literally be the old lady who lived in her shoes,” she laments, staring at the wreckage of beauty and waste. Violet Gross recalls similar awakenings—and subsequent panic

There are few guys who don’t aspire to one day own a walk-in wardrobe filled with every type of suit, but we’re often in the dark as to how to get there. For the remainder, suits are a necessary evil: an insurance policy for professional and social occasions that you want to spend the bare

Most style rules aren’t really rules at all. Most are simply judgements steered by the most recent thing to come down a runway. Some arise then evaporate in weeks. Others have more sticking power. Only one or two have been around for centuries. Take slim silhouettes, the default for a decade, now challenged by wider

It’s been described as Top Gear for streetwear, but you won’t find any of Clarkson’s dreadful boot-cut jeans here. YouTube style show PAQ has been a must-watch sensation since it hit our screens in 2017. Presented by Danny Lomas, Dexter Black, Elias Riadi and Shaquille Keith, it sees the four young London-based creatives take on

COURTESY OF @BUBBLYAQUARIUS, @NICOLECHAVEZSTYLE, @_JESSICASKYE When Frankie Shop debuted its quilted Teddy jacket, a thin puffer coat with an oversize trapeze silhouette, the minimalist Paris-meets-NYC brand didn’t expect it to become a runaway hit. The makers of viral products rarely do. After last year’s initial release, “We thought that perhaps we would move on from

The internet is very busy turning Megan Fox into memes. Meanwhile, she’s turning herself into a mogul. The Tennessee native is coming in hot with her new Boohoo collection, which gives fans 40-plus options for dressing like the newest Marilyn incarnate. Created with stylist Maeve Reilly, Fox’s range goes up to a size 24, and

Before social media trend cycles and endless DTC brands for shoppers to choose from, there were mall stores and catalogues merchandised specifically for uniform dressing. In the late ‘90s through the mid-2000s, names like Donna Karan New York championed the idea of capsule wardrobing before it was a thing. Now, to introduce a new generation

Ilya S. SavenokGetty Images Like many during lockdown, not being able to travel heavily affected Tia Adeola. The Nigerian-born, London-raised, and New York-based fashion designer is the definition of internationally influenced, so the impact of quarantine—limiting her access to explore new terrain—was a major blow to the driving forces in her creative process. Her designs

“I’m a girl from a good family who was very well brought up. One day I turned my back on it all and became a bohemian,” once said Brigitte Bardot. Though the flaxen-haired bombshell shunned the middle class conventions of mid-century France, her sentiment stands when it comes to matters of men’s style . After

Foundrae was founded by Beth Bugdaycay and Murat Bugdaycay with the goal of creating not just fine jewelry, but modern heirlooms. The brand is rife with symbolism and meanings both astral and spiritual; in addition to astrology and the zodiac, it creates an original visual vocabulary by mixing concepts together to create timeless pieces. Signature

Getty + Netflix + Apple TV Back in 2019, aka a lifetime ago, I declared that the ever-popular jumpsuit was the “holy grail of Halloween.” At the time, it made sense: Booksmart, Fleabag, Us—these were the pop culture moments we were obsessing over, and all of them featured at least one perfect jumpsuit. But things

It’s quite the understatement: her creations were just seen on the models in Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty Vol. 3 extravaganza,

When it comes to matters of the wardrobe, it’s well-known that the small details make a big difference. And as far as suits are concerned, few are smaller, or more impactful, than cufflinks. Granted, these minuscule pieces of menswear have come in for a bum wrap in recent years, having suffered years of abuse at

The strength of any great fall wardrobe finds its roots in strong silhouettes, clean lines, and a distinctive point of view with the changing seasons. Zara is ringing in the cooler months with its Studio Collection for fall/winter 2021. Twice yearly, the retailer releases the elevated range created in collaboration with stylist Karl Templer to

Taken literally, heritage in menswear never really goes away. Unless you’re sporting the latest wearable art installation (we sincerely hope that you’re not) the chances are that you’ve got on something time-tested which has, in one form or other, populated the wardrobes of our forebears. In men’s fashion-speak, heritage is anything that has more than

If there’s one designer who can make his customers feel things, it’s Telfar Clemens. Telfar fans aren’t just shoppers but a community who take pride in flaunting the label’s signature (and always sold-out) “Bushwick Birkin” tote. To carry Telfar is to broadcast your support for a young Liberian-American designer who renounces exclusivity in luxury fashion

You don’t need money to be stylish, they say. But we wonder if they ever had to make the call between shelling out for a premium suit and not defaulting on next month’s rent. Without the luxuries of infinite time and a bottomless bank account, ensuring you look on-point at all times can be a

Let’s take a moment to appreciate Kendall Jenner’s perfect fall outfit. The model posed for her latest Alo campaign and the cozy vibes are exactly what we’re moodboarding for the season. Just one glance and I’m already craving crispy air, rainbow leaves, and seasonal coffee drinks. Kendall bundled up in a plush ivory teddy jacket

War. What is it good for? Absolutely nothing. (Apart from your wardrobe.) Much (if not most) of what you wear on a daily basis started out life doing battle. Your trusty white T-shirt, those chinos, that bomber jacket – all of these pieces have their roots in military uniform rather than designers’ moodboards, having gradually

Alana, Este, and Danielle Haim of Haim, the Grammy-nominated California-cool girl rock trio, may have the hit song “Summer Girl” under their belt, but make no mistake: the band lives for fall. For the sisters, the season is synonymous with spontaneous drives up the Pacific Coast Highway, Joni Mitchell on repeat, and haunted hay rides.

Streetwear’s a term more jumped on than a pair of Air Jordans. Is it varsity jackets and Japanese jeans? Or longline tees and jersey joggers? Or both? We hit up streetwear PR and Fcknyh blogger Gregk Foley to help us navigate the asphalt. If there’s one common misconception about streetwear, it’s that it’s easy. Granted,
