I’m not sure which ELLE.com editor has ties to the NSA, but someone had to have read my June 2021 text message response to Heidi Gardner when she asked me what designers were my go-tos for dresses. Among my responses was Staud, so when I was invited to sit front row at the brand’s spring

A trip to Hawkins, Indiana, in Stranger Things might be a nightmare of uncanny terror, but a journey back to the ’80s with the hit Netflix series is wall-to-wall nostalgia. In amidst the Spielberg references and throwback soundtrack, the fashion of Stranger Things is also well worth a binge-watch. The retro costumes on-screen turned the

One of Broadway’s most beloved musicals is being made into a movie…again! Earlier this year, it was announced that West Side Story, the Romeo and Juliet-inspired tale about a pair of star-crossed lovers in New York City, will be getting a modern update. Steven Spielberg is set to take on the task of recreating the
Did you know that the glasswing butterfly has beautiful transparent wings and can be found in the rainforests of South and Central America? Or that the protected species are called “espejitos” (“little mirrors” in Spanish)? It’s this commitment to transparency, self-reflection, protection, and the knowledge that a small movement can create change that inspired the
There are plenty of minimum age limits (drinking, gambling, Quentin Tarantino movies), but bar driving, nowhere near enough maximum ones. It’s alarming, given that letting septuagenarians loose on streetwear can result in an equally horrific car crash of the mutton-dressed-as-lamb variety. Which is why FashionBeans has decided to impose some suggested restrictions on key menswear
Dear brands that design activewear for plus-size people, this one’s for you. Something that continuously grinds my gears is the fact that you pump out 100+ new designs before expanding your size range due to public pressure. Then once you finally expand your size range, every piece looks like a poncho with a pair of
Selena Gomez, Steve Martin, and Martin Short have decided to extend their stay in the Arconia—in spite of, you know, all the murders in the building. (Our hope is that rent will go down, at least.) The popular Hulu comedy has been a success story from the beginning, when the show launched as the streamer’s
Courtesy of Rebecca Minkoff The only fashion rule in stand-up comedy is that you shouldn’t wear shorts because they’re considered “unprofessional.” This never made sense to me. I’m allowed to make jokes about snapping dicks during sex, but I can’t wear a high-waisted denim short? It’s 90 degrees in New York right now—wearing jeans feels
Like leather jackets and quiff hairstyles, much of the reason we think sunglasses are cool is that they look good in the movies. Actors and directors know that people are more enigmatic when you can’t see their eyes. Behind the right pair of sunglasses you can hide mystery, mischief, defiance and lust, not to mention

Rihanna closed out the Met Gala red carpet in Balenciaga with her boyfriend A$AP Rocky last night, but that was only her first look of the evening, naturally. The singer was photographed again arriving at her Met Gala after party in a very modern flapper-esque look. Rihanna paired a cropped black top with a sheer
Over the past 11 days, stars descended on Venice, Italy for the city’s annual international film festival. With them, they brought plenty of fashion that rocked social media to the core (cue Zendaya in liquid-leather Balmain, Timothée Chalamet in sparkly Haider Ackermann, and Anya Taylor-Joy in Mattel pink Dior couture). And while the silver screen
It’s pretty simple to look good on-screen. You have a whole team of costume designers, hair stylists and photographers whose entire job is to make you look excellent. Off-screen, you’re on your own. While a lot of off-duty actors tend toward the dull or bizarre (see: Johnny Depp), some manage to maintain their movie star
Finding recipes that are both approachable and tasty is difficult enough. Add that they need to be low in calories, and it’s like finding a needle in a haystack. But while counting calories can be tedious and frustrating, keeping a general pulse on your calorie intake can be helpful when you’re trying to maintain a
Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian made their MTV VMAs debut last night, but they didn’t have their first Met Gala this evening. The two were absent from the red carpet. Kardashian revealed on her Instagram Story that the couple was still in New York City. They appeared to have a romantic dinner at Polo Bar
Kim Kardashian knows the world watches her every move, and every move is worth watching. As the stars filed onto the 2021 Met Gala red carpet, fans waited with bated breath to see what stunt the reality star/mogul would pull tonight. What do you wear when you want to be seen but not seen? Taking
John LamparskiGetty Images Disruptor. Trailblazer. Anomaly. As Telfar Clemens’s star rises in the fashion industry, so too does the number of synonyms used to describe what has been abundantly clear since the designer’s debut: When it comes to Clemens, always expect the unexpected. So when the Telfar team sent out invites for a “press conference,”
It seems strange now that hip-hop was once fashion’s rejected child, obsessed with brands but largely locked out of the party. Now, rappers front campaigns for the world’s biggest fashion houses, snap up most of the front row spots and take home all the gongs on award show red carpets, even if they’re still not

I do intermittent fasting, which means my first meal is lunch. I’m not hungry all morning, but I’ll tell you, when lunchtime rolls around, I am ready to eat! I would sit down to my meal-prepped Buddha bowl and basically inhale it within 10 minutes. Then I’d reach for more food because I still felt
Beyoncé was photographed in Cannes, France, yesterday, and while it’s not 100 percent certain she’s skipping the Met Gala in New York City tonight yet, Bey hopped on Instagram to generously make up for her possible absence. Bey shared three grid posts full of her European birthday vacation style. Notably, her four-year-old daughter Rumi appears
“As soon as you start putting on my collection from Revlon, that’s how you know you just automatically activated your hot girl shit,” Megan Thee Stallion explains over Zoom. “When you wear this makeup and when you’re getting beat, just know you’re activating it.” The rapper, sporting her signature cut crease and the gold shade
Dutch minimalism is coming to the masses. Zara is throwing its hat into the high-low designer collaboration ring with a KASSL Editions capsule. For the uninitiated, KASSL Editions was formed in 2018 with the goal of creating one perfect item: a fisherman’s coat. With that quest, the German label ushered in a refreshing code of
