Can we talk?

Can we rejoice now? That’s probably the reactions of some people who was never keen on the trend to begin with, and that includes me (Especially during my days of living in Europe, boots over sneakers any day, thanks.) In the world of luxury fashion, it was once a groundbreaking creative force from designers of the luxury houses such as Riccardo Tisci at (then) Givenchy and Kim Jones at (then) Louis Vuitton menswear. Then you have flourishing brands such as Virgil Abloh’s Off

I've been kind of obsessed with everything space-related these days. No joke. Though it has always been an interesting subject, before i'd never bother to look deep into it. Not only my mathematics and science level is capital D for Disastrous to be able to contribute to any space programs, i'm also not too keen on being strapped into a bomb and launched into the sky someday. But today i won't mind swooning over Thomas Pesquet or getting curious on how the International Space

She might have not posed for a men's magazine, nor was she a former couture supermodel, but the world is certainly paying attention to Brigitte Macron, the wife of the freshly elected French president Emmanuel Macron. What I meant by the 'world' is actually the fashion world. Yes. mainstream fashion publications like Harper's Bazaar and Vogue do pay attention to her style. British Vogue even went on into praising her for 'redefining first lady dressing'. Effectively, she has

Has it turned into the MEH gala? It was supposed to be fashion's biggest night in America. Co-chaired by Anna Wintour, the fund raising ball marks the opening of the annual exhibition of the Metropolitan's Museum of Arts Costume Institute. To honour the event and the subject of the exhibition, guests are given a theme as the dresscode of the night. This year, it is Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garçons. Known as the pioneer of the anti-fashion movement and avant garde aesthetics,

"It's not a bag, It's a fucking Birkin!" Any Sex and The City enthusiast would certainly remember that line by Samantha Jones. The storyline of the episode was about how bad she wanted to get the ultra exclusive Birkin bag and bitch about the waiting list she had to be in. Rightfully so, the bag has become a fashion icon on its own and one might have the impression of climbing the fucking Everest in order to get it in through your own effort.

Some of us grew up with "Tyra Mail!" or watching a girl doing upside down photoshoot on a Thai floating market. The TV show America's Next Top Model has been a pop culture icon by itself. Whether you love it or hate it. The show ended in 2015 but was revived quickly in 2017 with major changes and the latest winner was just being crowned; India Gants. Created by a veteran top model herself, Tyra Banks, the idea is basically like "American Idol but for modelling"- as Tyra lik

Hold on to your seat, because a documentary featuring AZZEDINE ALAÏA is here! YES! The documentary is around 20 minutes and can be streamed online on joesfilm.com . It is made by stylist Joe McKenna, who has been the man behind various campaigns like Balmain and Miu Miu among a few. [Vogue/Patrick Demarchelier] The reason why this documentary is so special is because Monsieur Alaïa, as many would respectfully call him, is a living legend who has created remarkable, impeccably

During Paris Fashion Week, the French ministry of culture decorated Pharrell Williams with the Legion of Honor (Legion d'Honneur for you Francophiles), for his contribution in music and art. "Ok, stop it right there, what?" was my reaction. The National Order of the Legion of Honor (Ordre National de La Légion d'Honneur) is the highest order for military and civil merit established by Napoleon Bonaparte himself. So it's kind of a big deal to receive that. It may be awarded to

"WHO GETS PAID TO WEAR WHAT?" should be the real question that we ask when looking at the red carpet of the Oscars or any other major award shows. This is the time when celebrities and A-list stars are naturally walking and posing on the red carpet, stop by for an interview and being asked "Who are you wearing?" [Photo: AP] Exactly, that question; "WHO are you wearing?" is literally a million dollar question. Obviously we all know these stars didn't choose something off the r

This month, the fashion industry graced us with its newest trailblazers. Fierce trailblazers. Halima Aden has already made headlines as the first hijabi woman to participate in an American beauty pageant at Miss Minessota competition. This time, the gorgeous Somali American was featured in CR Fashion Book's 10th Issue, and got one of the covers! My first reaction was YAAAAAAS girl WORK that hijab! In a time when many were stranded in American airports due to their nationality

It's a trend that we have seen coming since a couple years ago. We witnessed Riccardo Tisci of Givenchy (soon to be out) sent a more street-inspired collection to the runway, then other designers followed by collaborating with sportwear brands (hey Olivier), then there was the rise of Yeezy, but this season it really is elevated to a whole new level. Louis Vuitton presented its menwear collection with a collaboration with the cult streetwear New York brand Supreme. The reacti
