<p>Five menswear designers helped kick off New York Fashion Week on Friday, with designers citing influences as eclectic as Zanzibar beaches, the 1970s, and their own dreams.</p>

<p>Minnesota-based brand Earthling made their New York Fashion Week debut with a collection titled "Doves Cry" that was heavy on leather and denim and inspired by the 1970s and the founders' hometown hero, musician Prince.</p>

<p>"We're big on leather, and we're big on, like, warm colour palettes," said brand co-founder and designer Tracey Mills. "So every colour that you see is like the warm version of a colour palette because when you use warm colours, they can all mix and blend together seamlessly."</p>

<p>Aaron Potts continued his regular appearance at the show with a collection whose colours were inspired by the beaches in Zanzibar.</p>

<p>"I was looking at the sand and the water and the sky and all the gorgeous natural colours - so that really was the inspiration for the colour palette," he said. "And then we have these other fabrics that are these iridescent organzas, and we put those in as this sort of nod to all the beautiful iridescent fish."</p>

<p>Designer Clara Son said she likes to turn her negative emotions into beautiful garments.</p>

<p>"This collection is all about my dreams when I was going through a really challenging time," she said. "And in my dream, I'm riding a bike, right by the ocean and there was a stone, like the rocks, and there was like reeds and all the colour palettes coming from that."</p>

<p>Other brands who showed at the event included The Salting, who debuted a nautical-themed line.</p>

<p>New York Fashion Week will run from Sept. 6 to Sept. 11, with roughly 60 designers on the official calendar.</p>

<p>OpenAI, the firm behind the wildly popular generative artificial intelligence app ChatGPT, will now be able to dig into the massive content database of iconic fashion magazine Vogue and other publications of its parent company Condé Nast.

<p>The partnership, whose financial details were not disclosed, will enable OpenAI to display content from Condé Nast's other brands like The New Yorker, Condé Nast Traveler, GQ, Architectural Digest, Vanity Fair, Wired, Bon Appétit, too within ChatGPT and SearchGPT prototype.</p>

“I feel <em>Fashion</em> has all the potential for a sequel. Today, the world of fashion has changed. As a filmmaker, I feel I have a lot of material and hence, it can be turned into a show, spanning a couple of seasons. But it also is apt for a film. Hence, nothing has been decided yet. The subject, however, is interesting. Social media has completely taken over. There was a time when we used to hear of supermodels. But in the last few years, can you recall the name of any supermodel? Bollywood celebs have taken over and have become showstoppers,” Madhur told Bollywood Hungama in an interview.<br />
<br />
“This is what I want to ask through <em>Fashion 2</em> – where have these supermodels disappeared? A girl sitting in some small town can be a model or an influencer. I want to focus on these aspects,” the filmmaker added.<br />
<br />

<br />
The film was released in 2008 and featured Priyanka Chopra, Kangana Ranaut, Mugdha Godse, Arjan Bajwa, Arbaaz Khan and Samir Soni among others in key roles. The film revolves around Meghna Mathur (played by Priyanka), who is a small-town girl but wants to become a glamourous supermodel.

<p>Valentino’s longtime creative director, Pierpaolo Piccioli, on Friday announced his departure after 25 years at the storied Italian fashion house.</p>

<p>In an emotional statement shared on Instagram, Piccioli reflected on his 25-year tenure with the brand, thanking co-founders Valentino Garavani and Giancarlo Giammetti and the team that contributed to the brand’s success during his time. The designer, known for infusing Valentino with contemporary romance and bold creativity, will leave as the brand prepares to usher in a “new creative organization.”</p>

<p>Joining Valentino in 1999 as an accessory designer with Maria Grazia Chiuri, Piccioli ascended to co-creative director in 2008. Piccioli’s solo reign began in 2016 after Chiuri’s departure to Dior, marking a period of profound influence on Valentino’s aesthetic and global brand image.</p>

<p>Piccioli, a native of Nettuno with a background in literature from Rome University, started his fashion career with an internship at Brunello Cucinelli before moving on to a crucial role at Fendi with Chiuri. Their partnership proved foundational, propelling Valentino into a new era where traditional charm met contemporary edge — a transition epitomized by the introduction of the now-iconic Rockstud motif.</p>

Valentino’s longtime creative director, Pierpaolo Piccioli, on Friday announced his departure after 25 years at the storied Italian fashion house. In an emotional statement shared on Instagram, Piccioli reflected on his 25-year tenure with the brand, thanking co-founders Valentino Garavani and Giancarlo Giammetti and the team that contributed to the brand’s success during his time. The designer, known for infusing Valentino with contemporary romance and bold creativity, will leave as the brand prepares to usher in a “new creative organization.” Joining Valentino in 1999 as an accessory designer with Maria Grazia Chiuri, Piccioli ascended to co-creative director in 2008. Piccioli’s solo reign began in 2016 after Chiuri’s departure to Dior, marking a period of profound influence on Valentino’s aesthetic and global brand image.

Their partnership proved foundational, propelling Valentino into a new era where traditional charm met contemporary edge — a transition epitomized by the introduction of the now-iconic Rockstud motif. The departure of Piccioli heralds the end of a chapter for Valentino. As the fashion world looks on, Valentino’s announcement of a forthcoming “new creative organization” to usher in a fresh, creative vision for the brand’s future.

A Nigerian designer is making waves in fashion with a gender-fluid clothing line, which he says is intended to challenge the notion that non-binary dressing is a western concept and societal norms in a country where LGBTQ+ rights are restricted. Adeju Thompson, founder of the Lagos Space Program brand, designs clothing that transcends traditional gender boundaries, drawing inspiration from his African heritage and personal experiences.

<p>The gilded salons of a grand 18th-century townhouse were the hallowed venue for Valentino’s latest fashion display on Sunday – an ode to black. This monochromatic collection gleamed and glistened under crystal chandeliers amid myriad textures and materials, inspired by great artists such as the French master of black, Pierre Soulages.</p>

<p>Moons away, in the shadowy expanse of an icy-cold industrial warehouse crisscrossed by disused iron tracks and raw concrete surfaces, Alexander McQueen’s shivering guests huddled under blankets, buzzing with an air of electric anticipation. Because this wasn’t just another fashion show: it marked the first page of a new chapter for a house steeped in an iconoclastic history — and the debut of new creative director Sean McGirr.</p>

<p>Here are some highlights of fall-winter ready-to-wear collections:</p>

<p><strong>VALENTINO’S NOIR</strong></p>

<p>Designer Pierpaolo Piccioli said he “approached black as a canvas, a starting point on which to build … silhouettes that could move while looking for lights around, to soak them in and reflect them.”</p>

<p>The couturier was fascinated by the colour’s contradictions — used for uniform and individuality, representing sobriety and exuberance, lacking light yet soaking up reflections. It evoked the philosophy of Soulages, who died in 2022.</p>

<p>Thus, with a tinge of Valentino’s 1980s heyday and glamour, all-black looks sauntered by as daywear and evening merged indistinguishably owing to the colour’s intense allure.</p>

<p>Signature house looks were reimagined with a modern flair — think a voluminous black rosette adorning a sleeve, or the delicate tease of skin beneath tiered silk, not to mention sporty A-line skirts accented with tubular ruffles.</p>

<p>Though feathers, leathers, sequins, and lace provided subtle textural tensions, they did not provide quite enough of a lift to stop the collection from falling into the danger of such one colour-themed show: Feeling one-note.</p>

<p>Nevertheless, the series of gowns that ended the collection were a sublime study in chicness, such as one exquisite sheer chiffon floor-sweeping gown. Delicate baubles peppered were poetically dotted upon it like a constellation of black stars.</p>

<p><strong>ALEXANDER MCQUEEN’S NEW BEGINNINGS</strong></p>

<p>The pressure was palpable for McGirr, the relatively unknown 35-year-old Dublin-born designer, to unveil in this debut a vision and identity after 14 illustrious years of Sarah Burton. Burton, who parted ways with McQueen last season, had woven her narrative into the brand’s darkly romantic ethos after its visionary founder’s sudden, tragic death, leaving big shoes to fill.</p>

<p>Tagged “Rough opulence” and intent on “unveiling the animal within,” McGirr’s first foray resonated with the core tenets laid down by Alexander McQueen: a fusion of Gothic allure, a provocation, an ode to historical fashion, and the brand’s hallmark of dramatic tailoring.</p>

<p>The show unfurled with a model emerging from the shadows in a sinisterly twisted black laminated dress that seemed to swallow her hands whole — a striking image of constriction that reappeared throughout the collection. This binding theme was echoed in cords winding around slim-legged jeans and robust boots morphing into horses’ hooves, trailing tails, and ominous broad leather coats.</p>

<p>However, designs occasionally verged on the obvious, with pattered historic Renaissance sleeve gowns and bulky “car tire”-like knitwear lacking the subtlety associated with his predecessor. Though the collection sparkled with promising moments of audacity, McGirr prioritized a play-it-safe approach over the risk of a misstep by pushing the envelope. Perhaps this debut may have benefitted from being presented in a less pressurized, lower-octane, and more intimate format.</p>

<p>Nonetheless, amid the collection’s sombre reflections, a surprising undercurrent of delight and whimsy surfaced, most notably through the stirring melody of his compatriot Enya’s “Sail Away” filling the air. It infused the space with a buoyant optimism subtly echoed in McGirr’s oft-playful creations.</p>

<p><strong>MUGLER’S MIST-INFUSED SHADOW, LIGHT AND DRAMA</strong></p>

<p>Mist-filled theatrics left Mugler’s guests in awe during the Sunday night spectacle, with dramatic staging that included cascading curtains, strobe lights and smoke machines to evoke drama.</p>

<p>Layers of curtains fell in the revamped Lycee Carnot school atrium, watched by VIPs such as Brooklyn Beckham, where models utilized shadows and light to enhance already striking looks.</p>

<p>Asymmetry, skin and corsetry were everywhere.</p>

<p>Since his debut, designer Casey Cadwallader’s approach has been starkly sexy, challenging conventional fashion ideals with a hard exploration of the human form. This fall was no exception.</p>

<p>Bras atop bare torsos paired with oversized black tuxedos. Mini dresses that clung to the body had loose, fluttering bands at the hem. Themes of concealment were prevalent, with sheer fabrics revealing nipples and strategically placed fabric sections only just providing modesty.</p>

<p>The American designer continues to make significant waves in the Paris fashion world.</p>

<p>This season again, he championed inclusivity, showcasing models of every ethnicity, size (including several plus-sized models), and a broad age range, highlighted by the radiant 63-year-old Farida Khelfa in a show-stopping, brilliantly vivid red fringed poncho-dress.</p>

<p>Cadwallader’s presentations are known as events that blend performance, art and fashion, incorporating digital elements to create engaging shows that resonate with a contemporary audience, ensuring that Mugler is once more a dynamic player in today’s fashion conversation.</p>

Paris Fashion Week: Valentino puts on opulent study in black, as McGirr unveils McQueen debut

<p>On a rain-soaked Saturday at Paris Fashion Week, the luxury world saw a spectacle of contrasts, where the audacious spirit of punk melded with quiet luxury and historical elegance. Displays blurred the lines between rebellion and refinement, presenting collections that navigated through time — evoking medieval serfs with a modern twist and embracing minimalist aesthetics reminiscent of the 1990s.</p>

<p>Here are some highlights of Saturday’s fall-winter 2024 shows:</p>

<p><strong>HERMES UNDER THE STARS: DARK EXPLORATION OF QUIET LUXURY</strong></p>

<p>Explorations of “quiet luxury” — a phrase intimately tied to Nadege Vanhee-Cybulski’s tenure at Hermes — were once again at the forefront of the Parisian runway on Saturday, as the French designer unveiled her latest interpretation of leather’s endless possibilities.</p>

<p>These pieces, gleaming against the backdrop of a black starry night, sometimes adopted a fierce demeanor, reminiscent of studded, armor-like vests. Yet, this undercurrent of fierceness was masterfully balanced with the inherent softness of the collection’s cuts and the meticulous precision of its detailing.</p>

<p>Nipped buckles and gentle ribbing on skin-tight pants demonstrated Vanhee-Cybulski’s adeptness at blending Hermès’ storied craftsmanship with innovative design.

<p>Braving the persistent Parisian drizzle, K-pop star Sandara Park led the pack at Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood, captivating the audience in a punk-tinged corset adorned with pearls and brandishing a “Noblesse” sign to the flurry of camera flashes.

<p>Both male and female models strutted with a swagger, embodying the iconic Westwood 80s punk ethos through standout pieces like a large blue conical bra corset and garments with assertively large shoulders.

<p>This collection, a blend of audacious punk spirit and a nod to history, reaffirmed the brand’s mastery in fusing diverse influences, crafting rebellion throughout.</p>

<p><strong>CARVEN DESIGNER’S SOPHOMORE</strong></p>

<p>Elegant sophistication, minimalism, and a hint of nonchalance continued to define Carven. The storied house, originally founded by Marie Louise Carven in 1945, evolved under the guidance of various male creative directors since its reboot 2009 and 2018.

<p>The show opened with a statement piece: a brown round-shouldered coat that was both loose and indicative of the new direction Trotter is steering Carven towards.</p>

<p>This piece set the stage for a collection with dimensions and perceptions. A striking dress featured a trompe l’oeil effect, cleverly designed to appear two-dimensional.

On a rain-soaked Saturday at Paris Fashion Week, the luxury world saw a spectacle of contrasts, where the audacious spirit of punk melded with quiet luxury and historical elegance. Displays blurred the lines between rebellion and refinement, presenting collections that navigated through time — evoking medieval serfs with a modern twist and embracing minimalist aesthetics reminiscent of the 1990s. Here are some highlights of Saturday’s fall-winter 2024 shows: HERMES UNDER THE STARS: DARK EXPLORATION OF QUIET LUXURY Explorations of “quiet luxury” — a phrase intimately tied to Nadege Vanhee-Cybulski’s tenure at Hermes — were once again at the forefront of the Parisian runway on Saturday, as the French designer unveiled her latest interpretation of leather’s endless possibilities. These pieces, gleaming against the backdrop of a black starry night, sometimes adopted a fierce demeanor, reminiscent of studded, armor-like vests. Yet, this undercurrent of fierceness was masterfully balanced with the inherent softness of the collection’s cuts and the meticulous precision of its detailing. Nipped buckles and gentle ribbing on skin-tight pants demonstrated Vanhee-Cybulski’s adeptness at blending Hermès’ storied craftsmanship with innovative design. Amidst this darker palette, muted flashes emerged, weaving poetically through the collection. This emphasis on restrained elegance is quintessential to Vanhee-Cybulski’s vision, where the opulence of materials and craftsmanship triumphs without the need for ostentation.

WION - FEF INDIA FASHION AWARDS: FASHION FOR GOOD | MS. SUPRIYA CONSUL

<p><i>"Success is often achieved by those who don't know that failure is inevitable."- Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel</i></p>

<p>Today, the Chanel brand remains synonymous with luxury, sophistication, and a touch of rebellion.</p>

<p>It's a fashion house that continues to push boundaries, all while staying true to Coco's original mission: to empower women to be comfortable and confident in their skin.</p>

<p>Ready to join the legacy? Explore the world of Chanel and discover what timeless elegance means to you.</p>

<p><b>Who was she?</b></p>

<p>Coco Chanel, born Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel in 1883, wasn't your typical Parisian socialite.</p>

<p>Orphaned young and raised in an orphanage, she learned to sew from nuns, a skill that would become her life's compass.</p>

<p>Despite her challenging beginnings, Chanel possessed a fierce independence and a rebellious spirit that would define both her life and her revolutionary approach to fashion.</p>

<p><b>Kickstart of her career</b></p>

<p>In the year 1910, amid the cobbled streets of Paris, a millinery shop named "Chanel Mode" blossomed at 21 Rue Cambon.</p>

<p>This wasn't just any shop, it was the first chapter in the extraordinary life and legacy of Coco Chanel, a woman with dreams as grand as the Parisian skyline.</p>

<p>But hats weren't enough for Coco. Her ambitions, like her iconic pearls, were multi-stranded.</p>

<p>Soon, she set sail for Deauville, a haven where women embraced an active, carefree lifestyle. Inspired by their energy, Coco launched a revolutionary line – ready-to-wear garments for the modern woman who craved both freedom and elegance.</p>

<p>This daring move, like the crashing waves of Normandy, propelled her name to new heights.</p>

<p>Even the Great War couldn't dim Coco's fire. While the world around her was in turmoil, her business thrived.</p>

<p>She expanded her empire, employing over 300 artisans and establishing a magnificent couture collection in Biarritz.</p>

<p>By 1918, the war may have ended, but the reign of Coco Chanel was just beginning.</p>

<p>Her flagship store at 31 Rue Cambon, a testament to her unwavering spirit, opened its doors, ready to rewrite the fashion narrative.</p>

<p>Coco wasn't one to follow trends; she was a trendsetter. Inspired by the grace and practicality of menswear, she blurred the lines between feminine and masculine, introducing comfortable trousers to the previously skirt-dominated world of women's fashion.</p>

<p>She even defied social norms by embracing a short haircut, a silent rebellion against the long, flowing locks expected of women at the time.</p>

<p>Unlike the constricting corsets that suffocated women both literally and figuratively, Coco's designs prioritised comfort and freedom.</p>

<p>Her clothes were tailored for the working woman, allowing her to move, breathe, and conquer the world with both style and confidence.</p>

<p><b>Creation of Chanel no. 5</b></p>

<p>Fate brought her face-to-face with Grand Duke Dmitri. Their romance, though brief, blossomed into a tapestry of inspiration. His tales of imperial treasures and the rich fabrics of the church ignited Coco's creative spirit.</p>

<p>One serendipitous day, during a tour through the town of Grasse, Dmitri introduced Coco to Ernest Beaux, a perfumer with a lineage steeped in royal fragrance.</p>

<p>A year of experimentation followed, culminating in ten numbered vials presented to Coco.</p>

<p>Ignoring the traditional flowery perfumes, Coco, ever the paradoxical, gravitated towards number five. "I always launch my collections on the fifth," she declared, "and five seems to be my lucky number."</p>

<p>With a rebellious spirit, they rejected the crystal bottles of the day, opting for a sleek, rectangular design.</p>

<p>Inside, a revolutionary brew awaited - the world's first synthetic perfume, a symphony of eighty notes woven into a fragrance unlike any other.</p>

<p>It wasn't a mere scent; it was an essence, a "perfume for women that smelled like a woman." And so, Chanel No. 5, was born and, became a timeless classic, forever etched in the world of fragrance.</p>

<p><b>Tale of The Little Black Dress</b></p>

<p>The Roaring 20s was a time of roaring engines and societal shifts. Women were fighting for their voices, gaining rights, yet losing touch with their fashion flair. Enter Coco Chanel, a revolutionary with a needle and thread.</p>

<p>She saw the trend of "sad egalitarianism" stripping away feminine charm and decided to fight back. Her weapon? The little black dress.</p>

<p>This seemingly simple creation, a knee-length silhouette in forgotten crepe, was a silent rebellion. It was elegant, yet unfussy, sophisticated without pretence.</p>

<p>This "artless, rustic garb" became a symbol. It was copied, and reinvented, as a blank canvas for endless interpretations.</p>

<p>More than just a dress, it was a badge of empowerment, a whisper of defiance against the fading frills.</p>

<p>Coco wasn't done there. She experimented with jewellery, mixing the sparkle of crystals with the natural beauty of stones.</p>

<p>Surrounded by artists like Picasso and Stravinsky, she embraced her creative spirit. She was a woman of many facets, intelligent, witty, and a force to be reckoned with. As Picasso said, "the most sensible woman in the world."</p>

<p>The little black dress, like Coco herself, defied expectations and continues to be a timeless icon.</p>

<p><b>10-year hiatus from fashion</b></p>

<p>The world was engulfed in the flames of war, but amidst the chaos, Coco Chanel stood firm.</p>

<p>Despite her thriving fashion empire, she was forced to close her doors as shadows of conflict swept over Europe. Many fled, seeking refuge across borders, but Coco remained rooted in Paris.</p>

<p>However, her defiance came at a cost. An accusation of collaboration with the enemy, fueled by a love affair with a German officer, led to her arrest and swift release.</p>

<p>Shunned by Parisian society, Coco found solace in the tranquillity of Switzerland, where she spent nearly a decade in self-imposed exile.</p>

<p>While the world of fashion in Paris witnessed a post-war explosion of new talents, the legacy of Coco Chanel remained.</p>

<p><b>A comeback like never before</b></p>

<p>The war ended, and a new wave of fashion swept over Paris – creations were all about cinched waists, voluminous skirts, and "hyper-femininity." Coco, however, simply chuckled. "Look at these women," she quipped, "dressed by a man who doesn't know them, never had one, and dreams of being one."</p>

<p>Returning to Paris, she found a generation who only knew "Chanel" as a perfume brand.</p>

<p>Unfazed, she rented a tiny apartment at the Ritz, her beloved Parisian haven. When Marlene Dietrich asked why she was going back into fashion, Coco's answer was simple, "I'm dying of boredom."</p>

<p>Her comeback collection in Paris was met with shock. "Nothing new!" the critics sneered.</p>

<p>But Coco, ever the contrarian, understood her brilliance. This wasn't a flashy trend, it was timeless elegance, a concept lost on the Parisian crowd.</p>

<p>So, Coco took her "failed" collection across the Atlantic. America, with its open arms, embraced her.</p>

<p>The little black dress became a sensation, worn by a new generation of fashionistas. Coco, the phoenix of fashion, rose again, becoming a tycoon with the most influential house in the industry.</p>

<p>From the iconic Pink Chanel suit worn by Jackie Kennedy on a fateful day, to the practical pockets and over-the-shoulder bags, Coco's designs weren't just clothes, they were an art of living. Her legacy transcends trends, forever ingrained in the fashion world.</p>

<p>Coco, the woman who couldn't die working, breathed her last in her Ritz suite, overlooking the very house of fashion she built. Though only three dresses remained in her wardrobe, they were, as she'd say, "very stylish attires."</p>

<p>This, then, is the story of Coco Chanel, the woman who changed the fashion world, not with fleeting trends, but with the timeless language of elegance.</p>

Flashback Friday| From orphanage to fashion Olympus: The enduring legacy of Coco Chanel

<p>Don’t call them nostalgic, the bows and aprons, silken slips and hats that filled the Prada runway. Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons recovered elements of a woman’s wardrobe history and reconstituted them into something “modern.”</p>

<p>“It’s a history of women,” Prada told reporters backstage at the fall-winter 2024-25 preview show on Thursday. This act of reinventing items fished from deep inside the closet “frees them from their cage,” Prada said, giving them new meaning.</p>

<p>The looks are modular. Woollen aprons, facing front or back, partially obscure slip skirts, closing with bows or floral appliques — the silken touches defy the male silhouette. The skirt combos are paired with an accompanying jacket with a silken back panel, or twinsets in bold colour combinations, royal red and purple, yesteryear olive and pink.</p>

<p>Shift dresses are covered in the front with wispy, monochrome tabs that flutter with each step. Masculine elements include skirts cuffed at the hem and Varsity letter jacket emblazoned with a “P” for wannabe athletes that never made the cut. Cocktail dresses feature big bows and a fur collar.</p>

<p>The colour palette is mostly dark neutral, punctuated by colourful hats in aubergine or turquoise that elongate the form. In velvet they have the feeling of a Beehive, covered with feathers of a mod 1960s brushed do. The Prada Cleo bag has an oversized shoulder strap. Bags also fasten to the wrist with a leather strap.</p>

<p>“I always choose to work with pieces from history because for me history teaches us everything, in every field from politics to fashion to art. Anything we are comes from our past,” Prada said.</p>

<p>The show, she said, was meant as a gesture of “goodness,” something needed as an antidote to aggression, “especially in these times.” In that vein, models walked with their hands clutching their breasts, in a protective gesture.</p>

<p>“Fashion is also about love,” Simons added. “The love of beauty, the love of history.”</p>

<p>Emma Watson, Tracy Ellis Ross and Gwendoline Christie took front-row seats in the Prada showroom, perched above a plexiglass runway covering scattered fall leaves.</p>

<p>There was nary a sandworm in sight Thursday night on the runway of Christian Siriano, but he definitely had “Dune” on his mind as he kicked off New York Fashion Week.</p>

<p>The glam squad of the sand had places to go and people to see in their earth tones and orange shimmer worthy of a Sahara sunset. The movie, and now a second coming up, was his jumping off point.</p>

<p>“I was like, what if we lived in this world that was kind of apocalyptic, but in the sand in the desert. But where’s the glamour? Where’s the eveningwear? What would they wear if people had to live in this culture on a planet?”</p>

<p>Well, velvet with lace in body-hugging gowns, for one, and lots of metallic copper tones, orange-hued tulle and ochre sparkle, apparently. Perhaps they’d leave Siriano’s oversized peplums and his spare enlarged shoulders at home.</p>

<p>Under the sparkling chandeliers at The Plaza, Siriano rolled out 60 looks for dinner and cocktail dressing, galas and other social-circuit affairs, mixing bare-chested men in jackets with dazzling displays of earth colours, including gentler creams in slinky gowns and tuxedo silhouettes for women in black.</p>

<p><img alt="Christian Siriano Fall/Winter 2024" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="cd389a24-ce9f-40c8-91dc-a8ec4c807130" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/download%20%2893%29.jpg" /></p>

<p>The designer thinks often of other worlds, with a caveat: “Don’t forget the beauty.” He’s a particular fan of the sandy franchise starring Zendaya, who he’s dressed lots of times, and Timothée Chalamet, who he’d love to dress but hasn’t so far.</p>

<p><em>Dune: Part Two</em>&nbsp;hits theatres on March 1.</p>

<p>“I actually didn’t know that the new movie was coming out right now, so great timing. Maybe there will be something for him in this show,” he said of Chalamet with a giggle.</p>

<p>Gone, save for one black look, were Siriano’s huge signature ballgowns. He showed lots of mini looks, including some in gold shine with pops of red, the latter a colour that’s having a moment.</p>

<p><img alt="fghj" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="80080ed3-4f1e-43b1-86eb-a3f58df40441" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/download%20%2894%29.jpg" /></p>

<p>He put Alicia Silverstone in red on his front row. She was joined by <em>Succession</em>&nbsp;star J. Smith-Cameron, Ashlee Simpson, Sophia Bush and Melanie Lynskey, all not in red. That did what red does: It popped.</p>

<p>“Red brings that nostalgia that we love, of great moments,” Siriano said. “I think girls love to feel sexy, powerful. That’s it!”</p>

What would they wear if people had to live in this culture on a planet?” Well, velvet with lace in body-hugging gowns, for one, and lots of metallic copper tones, orange-hued tulle and ochre sparkle, apparently. Perhaps they’d leave Siriano’s oversized peplums and his spare enlarged shoulders at home. Under the sparkling chandeliers at The Plaza, Siriano rolled out 60 looks for dinner and cocktail dressing, galas and other social-circuit affairs, mixing bare-chested men in jackets with dazzling displays of earth colours, including gentler creams in slinky gowns and tuxedo silhouettes for women in black. The designer thinks often of other worlds, with a caveat: “Don’t forget the beauty.” He’s a particular fan of the sandy franchise starring Zendaya, who he’s dressed lots of times, and Timothée Chalamet, who he’d love to dress but hasn’t so far. Also read: What is the bizarre 'viral' Slushie trend that is taking over TikTok? Dune: Part Two hits theatres on March 1. “I actually didn’t know that the new movie was coming out right now, so great timing. Maybe there will be something for him in this show,” he said of Chalamet with a giggle. Gone, save for one black look, were Siriano’s huge signature ballgowns. He showed lots of mini looks, including some in gold shine with pops of red, the latter a colour that’s having a moment. He put Alicia Silverstone in red on his front row. She was joined by Succession star J. Smith-Cameron, Ashlee Simpson, Sophia Bush and Melanie Lynskey, all not in red. That did what red does: It popped. “Red brings that nostalgia that we love, of great moments,” Siriano said. “I think girls love to feel sexy, powerful. That’s it!”

<p>Twenty-two-year-old US Air Force officer Madison Marsh has become the first active-duty service member to be crowned Miss America, marking a historic moment in the renowned pageant's legacy. Marsh, a recent graduate of the US&nbsp;Air Force Academy, plans to continue her commitment to military service while embracing her newfound role as Miss America.</p>

<p>Speaking on America Reports, Marsh expressed her intention to seamlessly blend both responsibilities, stating, "We're really trying to mesh both of these roles together, as me remaining on active duty and maybe potentially becoming a recruiter for the Air Force."</p>

<p>The accomplished pilot, representing Colorado in the competition, began flying at the age of 15 and discovered her interest in pageants during her freshman year at the Air Force Academy. In the interview, Marsh talked about&nbsp;the Air Force's support for her education and her dreams of participating in the international beauty pageant.</p>

<p>"I wouldn't be able to be Miss America or even gone to Harvard without the opportunities that the Air Force provided," Marsh noted. "They gave me all of the tools at the Air Force Academy to compete in pageants, to get the scholarships I received, to send me to Harvard while I'm still on active duty."</p>

<p>Currently pursuing graduate studies at the Harvard Kennedy School, Marsh has dedicated her life to pancreatic cancer research. Inspired by her mother's battle with the disease, she aims to utilise artificial intelligence to detect pancreatic cancer early.</p>

<p>"My mom died when she was 41 years old. We had no cancer history. She was really healthy. She didn't have any of those high-risk factors, and she still passed away," Marsh explained.</p>

<p>Looking ahead, Marsh envisions her work in pancreatic cancer research and the nonprofit sector as the next steps after her service in the Air Force. She is determined to provide hope for other families affected by the disease and advocate for comprehensive support from congressional levels to research and funding.</p>

<p>"I want to be able to provide hope for other families and really push in every sector down from congressional up to research and funding to ensure that everyone is being taken care of," Marsh told America Reports. "Because if my mom can't get to be here, I want to ensure that other families get to have their moms, brothers, sisters, fathers, you name it. That's the type of person that I want to be for my mom."</p>

Bollywood's rising star, Ananya Panday, took centre stage as she graced the runway as the showstopper for designer Rahul Mishra at the ongoing Paris Haute Couture Week 2024. The 24-year-old actress not only turned heads but also made history as the youngest Bollywood actress to walk the prestigious ramp in the City of Lights. Ananya Panday showcased Rahul Mishra's latest collection, titled "Superheroes," which drew inspiration from the intricate world of insects, featuring elements inspired by butterflies, beetles, snakes, and more. The collection aimed to challenge societal perceptions towards insects and encourage a deeper appreciation for their beauty. For her show-stopping moment, Ananya dazzled in a butterfly-inspired black mini-dress that effortlessly blended sophistication with avant-garde flair. The statement piece included a giant sieve adorned with delicate butterfly motifs, creating a whimsical yet elegant ensemble. Complementing her attire, Ananya opted for a sleek hair bun and donned stylish black high heels. Taking to her Instagram Stories, Ananya shared a video snippet from the show with a caption that read, "Walking for @rahulmishra_7 at Paris Couture week."
