Damien Maloney In the fall of 2015 and spring of 2016, Sarah Delashmit, a thirtyish woman from Illinois, attended Camp Summit in Dallas, Texas, which since 1947 has served children and adults (“ages 6–99”) with disabilities. Delashmit had muscular dystrophy, and was paralyzed from the neck down. She had a sophisticated power wheelchair and breathing
While my love for fall-adjacent flavors remains strong year-round, I can’t help but put a pumpkin-spice spin on nearly every dish that comes out of my kitchen as soon as the first leaf starts to change colors. Needless to say, I’m beyond excited that the (real) most wonderful time of the year is upon us
The reboot machine has revealed the limits of its audacity—and the limit does not exist. Hollywood is attempting to “reimagine” the 1992 romantic drama The Bodyguard, which you might remember as the film that launched the biggest movie soundtrack of all time and blessed us with Whitney Houston’s unforgettable cover of “I Will Always Love
Me at LUAR?! I’m not worthy! Truly, that’s how I felt the second my ride pulled up to a remote street in Brooklyn. It was the most “my life is like a movie” I’ve ever felt. I say this because the crowd outside the venue was teeming to get in. There was an immediate energy
Fast fashion has its advantages (mainly when next-day delivery gets you out of a sartorial pickle the week before payday). But it’s quality, sustainable fashion that lasts. Just look at a select few of menswear’s most respected brands, who guarantee their products for life. It’s a brave promise, given the savvy nature of today’s clued-up,
@paigeandbroch I wish I knew about this sooner 🥲 #headache #headacherelief #migraine #migrainerelief #naturalremedy #tiktoktips #healthtok #healthhack ♬ FEEL THE GROOVE – Queens Road, Fabian Graetz If you’ve ever had a migraine, then you know how intense and painful they can be. Around 12 percent of the US adult population suffers from migraines, and while
For Nicole, taking the abortion pill was like getting through “an extremely painful poop.” It hurt, a lot, and then it was done. She was bartending at the time, light years away from thinking about motherhood, and decided on medication abortion. At $585, it was cheaper than a surgical abortion. Plus, Nicole wanted do it
Usually, early fall—and more specifically September—is my favorite time of the year. In French, we call it la rentrée, which doesn’t have an equivalent word in English, but it basically means back to school. It might seem regressive, I admit. But there’s just an energy I’ve always loved about that time. First of all, everyone
There’s more to a good suit than a good fit. That sounds like sartorial sacrilege but it’s true (dig out your prom photos for shuddersome evidence). Yes, a tailored two-piece is the foundation every buttoned-up gent should aspire to, but that’s just the starting point of looking good in formalwear. Where suiting goes from an
After Simone Biles, McKayla Maroney, Maggie Nichols, and Aly Raisman gave testimonies at a Sept. 15 Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on the FBI’s mishandling of their investigation into Larry Nassar abuse allegations, the floor opened up for questioning. A powerful moment came when Chairman Dick Durbin asked the four survivors and gymnasts what they would
A Black woman is the brains behind American Horror Story’s latest horrific tale, Double Feature: Red Tide, and Angelica Ross gives her life. The horror anthology’s milestone 10th season takes place in a fictionalized Provincetown, Mass., whose residents have fallen under the sway of mysterious Black Pills. The pills, made by the unnamed Chemist, can
Everyone loves a good multi-purpose product, especially when it comes to skincare—which is why Kate Hudson shares her favorite versatile, skin-saving balm whenever she gets the chance. Hudson has raved about the cult-favorite Egyptian Magic All Purpose Cream in interviews for years, and she’s not stopping now. She gave it a mention in a recent
We’re by the ocean, but it’s not just any beach. It’s Jacob Riis Park, where queer people flock to get away from city noise and flaunt our bodies, curves, bulges, rolls, scars… everything that makes us beautiful. “It’s the place where I’ve seen more Chromat in the wild than any place on earth,” says Becca
Fans of menswear in its printed form, rejoice. We’ve painstakingly ploughed through a local library’s worth of hardbacks and paperbacks in the selfless pursuit of creating the ultimate reading list of menswear books. Yes, we’ve given ourselves more papercuts than any man should have to endure, but these titles are stuffed with all the style

When Rachel Zegler, then a 17-year-old high school student, posted a tweet of her singing a pitch-perfect cover of Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper’s “Shallow” back in 2018, she went viral. To date, the 30-second clip has over 86,000 retweets and 374,000 likes. A month later, the teen was chosen to star opposite Ansel Elgort
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
