What’s Up With Fashion?

I take fashion journalism here at FIT, and one of the most important elements of the field is fashion reporting- or fashion news. Outlets like WWD and NY Times Fashion do it best, but I have a lot more opinions than they do, so here’s my attempt at rounding up a week in fashion.

John Boyega and Bel Powley

It’s Cannes time! Pictured above is one of my favorite actors, Star Wars’ John Boyega, and fellow cool actor on the rise Bel Powley. Last year the jury’s verdict didn’t matter because Sienna Miller won everything (I still have dreams about that blue Gucci dress), but this year honorable mentions go to Naomi Watts and Kristen Stewart. Some films were premiered too, I think.

Kate Middleton covers British Vogue

British Vogue celebrated its centennial issue in a big way. Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, covers its June 2016 issue, photographed at her country home. I don’t know if it’s #basic to love the royal family, but I do and I will continue to. Did you see Prince George talking to Obama in his robe? Iconic.

harryIt’s not a drill guys. Harry Styles debuted his new cut this week in London, after posting a picture of his chopped off ponytail on Instagram. Harry, a trendy guy, knows that the man-bun is a dying art anyways, so when his film debut in Dunkirk prompted him to need a WW2 soldier’s look, he knew he could make it work. If you weren’t already wrecked emotionally after this news, you’ll be glad to know that he donated his hair to Little Princess Trust: an organization that provides wigs to children who have lost their hair. This just further proves the idea that no matter what happens in the fashion world, Harry Styles’ hair will always take the cake.
