The past week has seen pro-Palestine encampments sprout up on college campuses across the US, as students try to push universities to divest from financial ties to military companies. At schools including Columbia, Yale, and NYU, dozens of students were suspended and arrested for their involvement in the protests, like Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) daughter and Barnard student, Isra Hirsi. The University of Southern California (USC) blocked its valedictorian, Asna Tabassum, from speaking at commencement over references to Palestine on her social media accounts, including a link to a site that some ..read more

Celine Dion is recalling how she paid a physical price for her epic wedding look. In a video for Vogue, the singer looked back at some of her iconic outfits for the magazine’s “Life in Looks” series, and shared a memorable story from her 1994 wedding to René Angélil. Upon seeing her stunning wedding photo, Dion admitted that she was left “speechless” by the memories it brought up. “My husband and I got married in ’94. December 17, to be precise. I still feel his presence so much,” she said of her late husband and manager. “This is a moment that will be with me for the rest of m ..read more

First, artificial intelligence (AI) came for our jobs. Now, it’s coming for beauty standards by way of AI “content creators.” Solely digital renderings and not real people, AI-generated influencers have become brand ambassadors and digital creators, amassing thousands of dollars in revenue through subscription-based content. Apparently, the natural next step was to have them compete in a beauty pageant. Creator platform Fanvue, whose user base includes both real creators and AI ones, recently announced the Fanvue World AI Creator Awards (WAICAs): the world’s first ever beauty pageant for AI-g ..read more

I’ve always loved Passover. Okay, not always; my three-quarters Jewish, mostly atheist family and I didn’t throw seders when I was growing up. But ever since college, I’ve been coming together with friends to read the Haggadah (albeit one with a queer, feminist, decidedly modern bent), break matzah apart, dip parsley in salt water, ask the Four Questions, and cheer on the youngest at the table as they found the afikomen. When Bernie Sanders dropped out of the 2020 presidential race on the first night of Passover, I quietly mourned, imagining what it would have been like to see someone in the ..read more

Kylie Jenner has access to pretty much anything she wants to wear, from fresh-off-the-runway looks to rare archival pieces. She’s got every major design house on lock, but she’s always looking for the next big thing, which means she sprinkles smaller, independent designers among the Balmain and Balenciaga. The latest designer to get the Kylie Jenner stamp of approval is British-Indian designer Supriya Lele, with Jenner wearing a gorgeous lilac purple top by the designer in a new promo shot for Kylie Cosmetics. As noted by Vogue India, Kylie Jenner slipp ..read more

No matter what Anya Taylor-Joy wears, she’s making a style statement. Recently, the 28-year-old actress was spotted in New York City with her husband, Malcolm McRae, wearing a stylish take on the biker trend.

Nearly 56 years ago, during the Summer of Love, Sally Fox inadvertently laid the seeds for her career as a groundbreaking cotton breeder. A then-11-year-old Fox, accompanied by her older sister, went to Northern California’s first-ever Renaissance Faire and spent her babysitting money on a drop spindle from “these cool people.” From there, she was hooked on weaving. Today, she combines her lifelong passion with entomology and biology to create non-genetically modified strains of colored cotton, which not only reduce dye waste, but contain anti-microbial, pest-repellant, and flame-resistant pr ..read more

(Image credit: Getty Images) Although Anne Hathaway and her stylist Erin Walsh love to surprise and delight, they also rely on a foundation of simple wardrobe staples that they repeat year after year. This story is not about Hathaway’s flashiest red carpet looks—as jaw-dropping as they are—but instead focuses on a handful of her core pieces that she tends to bring out every spring. You certainly don’t need a Met Gala red carpet rolled out to wear these six spring trends. Cat-eye sunglasses, for instance, have ebbed and flowed in popularity over the past 90 years, but they’ve never truly go ..read more
