Style Diana & Tracee Tracee Ellis Ross. It was her first time at the Cannes amfAR gala last night. And Diana Ross was performing. So this red dress, with the feathered arms, it’s an homage to her ma. Some people have commented on the fit of Tracee’s red dress. That maybe it’ By Lainey • May 26, 2017 01:12 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Lily’s Cannes stripes and sequins I’m obsessed with this striped top. It’s complicated – which is why I’m so obsessed with it. Because even with the one shoulder falling off, and the one dramatic sleeve, and the bow at the back, it still doesn’t feel overwhelming, not to me. And somehow the By Lainey • May 19, 2017 12:52 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Tracee’s khaki suit Is it just me or did you think about Meryl Streep in Out Of Africa when you saw Tracee Ellis Ross in this suit? Obviously Tracee’s suit is way steezier in these times. But that’s definitely the vibe, non? I love how the jacket is blousing at the By Lainey • May 19, 2017 11:26 am
Style The Cannes princess dress You know what makes me crazy? When people make fashion calls without considering what the event is. An outfit for the Oscars is not an outfit for the VMAs. The Emmys and the MET Gala are not the same. You can wear the most beautiful classic ball gown but if By Lainey • May 18, 2017 10:42 am
Style Wonderstruck in Cannes Have you seen Far From Heaven? I just checked – Far From Heaven is 15 year old this year. I loved Far From Heaven. Like many others, it’s my favourite Todd Hayne’s film. Todd Haynes’s last film was Carol which was not nominated for Best Picture and was By Lainey • May 18, 2017 09:36 am
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Lupita’s high collar high waist I wish this is what Lupita wore to the MET Gala instead of that orange feathered dress. Or at least something in the spirit. Because this is a muuuuuch better outfit. Isn’t it a much better outfit? The proportions? The high collar AND the high waist? The shoes? RIGHT? By Lainey • May 17, 2017 02:39 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Charlotte’s blazer-bomber I’m never surprised when Charlotte Gainsbourg gives good steeze. But that doesn’t mean it’s any less intense when she wears something I want. Like this bomber. With the subtle lapels. This entire outfit actually. I think I might need those pants too. By Lainey • May 17, 2017 01:49 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Isabelle’s white cuffs How many others could pull this look off without looking like a f-cking asshole clown? Not many. Because it’s not just extra long white lace cuffs at the wrist, it’s also white lace cuffs… around the ankle! I mean, f-ck, I would like to try. Really bad. That’ By Lainey • May 12, 2017 03:48 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Brie’s best Dior Not normally an admirer of Brie Larson style but this outfit is great on her. Jacket is perfectly tailored. And LOVE the choice to wear boots, which may obviously have something to do with the venue but even if it wasn’t out in the wild, this event, I’d By Lainey • May 12, 2017 03:06 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Judith should have been at the MET Gala What we all need to do right now is curtsey. Or whatever it is that we’re supposed to do when a god.damn QUEEN arrives and shows you how it’s done. You know who could have given Rihanna a run at Best Dressed at the MET Gala? Judith By Lainey • May 10, 2017 04:08 pm
Lifestyle Carpets & Candids: Tracee’s sequined patches Sasha emailed me last night freaking out about Tracee Ellis Ross’s look at the MTV Movie and TV Awards last night. It’s her “favourite for all of 2017”. I like it too, though I’m not sure I would say it’s my favourite for the entire year By Lainey • May 08, 2017 11:58 am
Style Rihanna: the MET Gala MVP There is SJP. And there is Solange. And both have become critical to the MET Gala. I agree with Duana that Solange has made a monumental impact on this event. That she is leading us to new and memorable places with her style instincts. That it is breathtaking, the choices By Lainey • May 02, 2017 03:48 pm
Style Solange: MET Best Dressed 2017 (Duana) Well. I mean, of course it’s not surprising that Solange is Best Dressed. In fact, she’s been using the MET Gala as her personal runway for years—a place where she is, in a different way than Rihanna, expected to reign. But man, I didn’t know it By Duana • May 02, 2017 01:17 pm
Style Ruth Negga: MET Best Dressed 2017 (Lainey) I promise that we try. After the Oscars and the Globes and the Emmys and especially the MET Gala, when we break down the list of coverage and consider the assignments, Duana and I try mix it up, we try not to keep going to the same names for best By Lainey • May 02, 2017 01:01 pm
Style Janelle Monae & Chrissy Teigen: Best MET Feather Bombs Officially, my assignment sheet also includes John Legend, but can we acknowledge what we know? JL, you look great, it’s not about you, we gotta go. Okay. These dresses are kin to one another—not yin and yang, more like Big and Little Sis. But they’re both about By Duana • May 02, 2017 11:19 am
Style Zoe Kravitz: the MET’s punk pixie Zoe Kravitz has an advantage. Several, actually. First… you can’t get away from the face. Her face, it’s absurd. Like absurdly exquisite. Like intoxicatingly exquisite. Second though, right now, it’s the hair. Right now, the shock blonde pixie cut is having a moment. But no one is By Lainey • May 02, 2017 09:20 am
