Berlin Fashion Week SS27 ran from July 2 to 5, 2026, and the official recap shows a season built around more than clothes. The final press release said the week featured 53 runway shows across Berlin, with collections and events staged in places such as the ICC, Charlottenburg Palace, Fotografiska, Hotel Adlon, and Tempelhof-linked spaces. What stood out most was the way designers kept returning to identity, technology, and memory as the core ideas shaping the season. What happened The official Berlin Fashion Week schedule for SS27 included shows, presentations, and side events, and the platform also split some public-facing…

This week’s best dressed stars did not try to outdo one another with overworked drama. Instead, the strongest looks leaned into clean lines, fresh color, and a lighter mood that fits the middle of summer. In Vogue’s latest celebrity style roundup, Anne Hathaway, Anya Taylor-Joy, Gracie Abrams, and Zendaya stood out for very different reasons, but they shared one thing in common: each look felt confident without looking forced. What happened Vogue’s July 19 roundup, titled “The Best Dressed Stars of the Week Kept Things Upbeat,” highlighted a group of celebrity outfits that favored classic shapes with small surprises. Anne…

Birr Castle in County Offaly is already known for science, gardens, and a long family history. Now it is also making headlines for something more unexpected: a growing fashion archive with about 400 pieces, some of them dating back to the 17th century. The collection includes gowns, coats, hats, shoes, bags, wedding clothes, and rare textiles that help tell the story of one family across centuries. The story came into focus through reporting by The Irish Times, which described the archive as a major discovery hidden inside the castle and said some of the items will go on public view…

Fashion has spent years selling youth as the default. This season, that script looks weaker. The new faces drawing attention are women in their 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, and even 80s, showing up on runways, in campaigns, and on red carpets with far more visibility than before. Tatler Asia recently framed the moment as “silver dollar style,” and the label fits because the shift is about more than a look. It is about age, money, cultural taste, and the growing demand for women to be seen as stylish at every stage of life. What happened The clearest sign came during…

Jennifer Lawrence has given summer dressing a very clear message: shorts do not have to be tiny to feel fresh, cool, or flattering. In recent street style coverage, the actor was photographed in Manhattan wearing white Bermuda-length denim shorts from Still Here, a printed white T-shirt, red sandals, and a bright orange bag, with The Row sunglasses finishing the look. Fashion editors say the outfit works because it feels easy, balanced, and wearable, while still looking sharp enough for city life. What happened The look that sparked the conversation was simple on paper but strong in effect. Lawrence stepped out…

Fashion and sport have been crossing paths for years, but the line between them keeps getting thinner. A recent WWD roundup looked back at 15 runway moments that pulled directly from sports culture, with Tom Ford and Louis Vuitton among the names in the mix. That matters because the idea is no longer limited to sneakers and tracksuits. It now shapes show sets, styling, references, and even the way luxury houses frame their collections. What happened The latest push came into focus again through WWD’s gallery on sports culture on the runway, which revisited examples from different eras and labels.…

Yes, I tried doing my own color analysis at home and it worked well. I stood by a window in natural daylight and removed heavy makeup so my skin looked real. I draped different colored cloths near my face, one at a time, and watched how my skin, eyes, and hair reacted. Some colors made my face glow, evened out my skin, and made my eyes pop; others made me look tired or washed out. I also checked my veins and tried warm and cool tones to see which matched better. It took only about fifteen minutes. After that I…

The Her Universe Fashion Show is heading into San Diego Comic-Con 2026 with its judging panel now in place. The 12th annual event, which takes place on Thursday, July 23, will bring DC-inspired fashion to the Harbor Ballroom at the Manchester Grand Hyatt, where designers will show original looks built around the DC Universe. The panel includes award-winning journalist Marc Malkin, fashion design director Symantha Perrera, DC Studios Showcase co-host Frankey Smith, plus last year’s judges’ and audience winners, Lynleigh Sato and Caitlin Beards. What happened The news, first reported by ComicsBeat, confirms the people who will help decide this…

The 2026 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is taking shape, and the biggest confirmed detail so far is the setting: Los Angeles, California. Victoria’s Secret has already said the show is headed to L.A., and the brand’s official 2026 fashion show page also says the event is back and will roll out more updates through its social channels. That matters because the show is no longer a locked-down old-school runway secret. Victoria’s Secret is now using teasers, casting content, and social posts to build the rollout in public, which keeps the show in the news long before the runway lights come…

Ivory Coast fashion is getting a louder global voice, and the center of that rise is Abidjan. A new AFP report published by Africanews says Ivorian designers are drawing attention from stars such as Beyoncé and Aya Nakamura, while still choosing to build their brands at home rather than relocate abroad. The report also points to social media as a major reason their work is reaching far beyond Côte d’Ivoire. That rise is not happening in a vacuum. It comes as Abidjan pushes harder to position itself as a real fashion hub, with events like Abidjan Fashion Week and a…
