Gigi Hadid was clad in all-black alongside BFF Kendall Jenner in the Big Apple today. For their day out, she wore a $2,155 Jitrois Black Jourdan Dress and Isabel Marant Fall 2016 Grommet Wrap Boots:
Her lambskin leather LBD features a sheer illusion neckline and faux python embroidery.
Her boots were shown on the brand’s Fall runway. Looks as if Gigi buckled hers differently to create the crisscross effect.
I like this casual take on a cocktail dress…though she must’ve been burning up in NYC’s crazy heat! Her KITH cap was dope too.
Gigi’s boots aren’t up for grabs just yet, but you can get her dress here.
Let’s be honest: Rodarte is very much an enigma to most. The design duo comprised of sisters Kate and Laura Mulleavy create the kind of designs that seem to be plucked from a modern-day fairytale—very often unwearable, but almost always absolutely stunning. They’re a red carpet favorite for the likes of Nicole Kidman and Tessa Thompson, but we all know that being a go-to for movie premieres and photocalls does not a profitable brand make. But somehow they sell—like we said, enigma. Well, the pair are opening the shopping floodgates we thought to be imaginary before today with their very own e-commerce site:
“We really started talking about doing e-commerce about a year ago, thinking about how we would want to approach it, slowly figuring out how we could develop something in a way that would reflect all the different variations of things that we do,” Laura Mulleavy told Vogue.com. “We want to have direct access to our consumers, and also the people that would want things we have that aren’t available in smaller cities or in certain areas of the country.”
The Mulleavys wanted to spice it up with their online section: a variety of price points and products that they were sure both their diehard fans and those just learning about the brand would want to buy. As well as everyone in between, of course. Shoes, jewelry, t-shirts, and even a book are all up for grabs.
We were saddened by the lack of runway designs, but it’s something the brand is hoping to include down the line. Of the choice, Laura Mulleavy said, “I think that runway, for us, is going to take a long time to translate our very fine products online. It’s something we’ve always been careful with all online vendors, in figuring out what the right voice is. “
And Mulleavy did address the brand’s standpoint on selling. “When we do a collection, I don’t really think we think so much about what’s going to sell because I don’t think we can ever predict that. However, when you do see something coming together and you think, ‘That’s so pretty and I want that!’ it’s a fun and exciting moment.” In an industry that is so heavily focused on see now, buy now, it’s certainly interesting to hear their point of view.
Mulleavy explicitly stated that they’re bringing back old pieces that they’re constantly fielding requests for. So if there’s something you’ve loved from Rodarte’s archives, make sure you let them know!
And the end goal is an actual brick-and-mortar store. That will certainly be a sight to behold with a star-studded guest list.
Along with Gucci Mane and Keyshia Kaior, 2 Chainz was at Atlanta’s Privé nightclub yesterday evening wearing a $675 Gucci Striped Polo with Snake Embroidery:
He decorated himself with sparkling jewelry.
An embroidered snake appliqué is applied along the collar of this polo accented with a gold embroidered bee detail, a new iconic symbol for Gucci.
Mr. Chainz’s exact colorway is sold out, but you can get a few other colors here.
Guys, would you splurge?
**Ladybug wrote in and gave us the scoop on Chainz’s kicks! They’re Adidas x Pharrell Human Race NMDs Sneakers:
If you’ve ever been to the Colette boutique in Paris, then you know it’s a go-to spot for some of the coolest designs in the world. The edit is incredibly well-curated and mixes high and low, big name and emerging. The store’s latest endeavor is a pop-up shop with none other than one of our favorite superstars, Rihanna:
The limited-time event features merchandise from Rihanna’s anti tour, as well as pieces from her slew of collaborations with Manolo Blahnik, Dior, and Stance.
Her six scents are also included for those with beauty proclivities.
The almighty Slay Lo took to Instagram to remind her followers of why she is STILL Queen! In celebration of her 47th birthday, the songstress partied it up in Las Vegas as she donned a glam Zuhair Murad Fall 2016 Teal Chevron Striped Sequin Embellished Pant Suit, a lace bralet and matching peep-toe heels.
The disco-inspired frock boasts front-slit trousers, a relaxed fit and some of the best sequin detailing I’ve seen in a while. For the official presentation, the model wore a black choker, fishnets and gem-encrusted drop earrings. I bet this would be so much fun to wear!
I think this one is a no-brainer. Jennifer killed it! This woman can rock anything and make it look like a million bucks. Even if she’s not wearing a shirt, I’m here for every minute of it. Talk about wearing a mean birthday suit!
It looks like Fabolous, Fat Joe and French Montana were also in attendance for Jenny’s birthday soirée. They all look great!
Charlotte Tilbury is the go-to beauty guru for the world’s most stunning ladies: Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, Amal Clooney, and many more. The makeup maven just announced that she’ll be launching her first-ever fragrance, with BFF and icon Kate Moss as the face:
“I have been mixing my own Secret Scent for years and have been fascinated by the idea that one’s perfume can attract others and change the energy frequency of the people and environment around you,” said Tilbury of new fragrance, Scent of a Dream. “I believe you can use it to create an emotional pathway with someone else’s energy centers: their brain, heart and sex receptors, igniting the senses. You can directly alter their state of mind and body through this scent and spark a subliminal key to attraction.”
And snagging Moss as the face of anything is no small feat, but the two icons have a special friendship spanning 25 years that made her a natural choice for Tilbury. “Charlotte and I have always had this instant, naughty chemistry,” said Moss of her new role. “We danced side by side together during the shoot. Charlotte has this electric passion and energy for life: she’s a bit magical.”
Behind the scenes of the campaign is famed photographer Sølve Sundsbø and there will also be a film to accompany it, directed by Baillie Walsh.
