If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, WWD may receive an affiliate commission. 2024 is shaping up to be the year of the horse girl. While Beyoncé’s foray into country music with “Cowboy Carter” helped spur an interest in Western styles, equestrian fashions of the English variety are also capturing the attention of designers and the TikTok set. Models at Prada and Celine’s fall 2024 shows trotted down the runway in helmet-like headgear and riding boots, while Louis Vuitton and Isabel Marant doubled down on cowboy essentials like fringe and double denim. On TikTok, “equestrian chic” and “English countryside chic” have emerged as two popular hashtags, with users styling outfits inspired by the off-duty wardrobes of the upper class: particularly, their well-established penchant for equestrian sports. This can be associated with the popularity of the “Old Money” aesthetic on the app, which seeks to emulate the styles of Gwyneth Paltrow,

EXCLUSIVE: Khloé Kardashian Brings First Solo Fragrance to Market With Luxe Brands

Khloé Kardashian’s fragrance business is coming into focus — and gearing up for a global launch. Called XO Khloé, the first scent in Kardashian’s partnership with Luxe Brands is launching at Harrods on Nov. 25 in the U.K. and Ulta Beauty in the U.S. on Dec. 1. Prices range from $58 to $78. Years in the making, the fragrance opens with top notes of crystallized rose petals, lavender and sage blossom; has heart notes of orange blossom water, praline and juicy peach; and dries down to tonka bean, soft wood and sexy musks for the base notes. Firmenich perfumers Alberto Morillas and Clement Gavarry collaborated with Kardashian on the scent. While not Kardashian’s first stab at making a scent, it is her most personal. “The other creations I did in the fragrance world, I either did with my ex-husband or I did with my sisters. I’ve never done one completely on my own, which is really cool but also nerve-wracking. It’s all reliant on you,” she said in an exclusive interview. “It is scary, but i

Josh Heuston Joins the ‘Dune’ World in New Prequel HBO Series ‘Dune: Prophecy’

In between the first and second “Dune” movies, directed by Denis Villeneuve, casting was set for the HBO prequel series “Dune: Prophecy.” Australian actor Josh Heuston, who’d been cast in the series as Constantine Corrino, had grown up a fan of the books and loved the first movie, but it all took on new meaning as the second film was rolling out, knowing he would now be part of the “Dune” universe.  “Seeing how incredibly talented everyone was on the second film, that’s obviously a level of daunting to jump into that,” the 27-year-od says.  The series, which premiered Sunday and airs weekly on HBO, is set 10,000 years before the first “Dune” film.  “It’s still the same universe, so there’s still the same themes and the tone is quite similar. What’s different is it’s still a grand drama, but then it also feels like an intimate drama at the same time, because sure, there’s the massive sets and you’re in a spaceship where you are in an entire castle, but there’s the family dynamic,” Heust

Charli XCX’s Gucci Jackie Bag Stole the Show During ‘SNL’ Performance of ‘360’ — Here’s Where to Buy It

If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, WWD may receive an affiliate commission. You want to guess the bag on Charli XCX’s shoulder during her “360” performance on “Saturday Night Live” last night? The Grammy-nominated “Brat” artist hit the green stage during “SNL” — where she did double duty as both the host and musical guest — wearing a vintage Lou Reed “New York” graphic concert T-shirt, R & M Leathers buckle belt, a ruffled mini skirt, Jimmy Choo x Jean Paul Gaultier Cuff boots, Givenchy Giv Cut shield sunglasses, and a Gucci Jackie large shoulder bag in black from the luxury fashion label’s fall 2024 collection. While fans were puzzled by Charli’s decision to perform with her purse (that’s so “Brat”), we found the choice of designer bag to be the most shocking — or should we say so confusing — part of the live performance. This past week, Charli was photographed by paparazzi leaving The Bowery Hotel in New York City toting a

EXCLUSIVE: The Gemological Institute of America’s CEO Susan Jacques Talks Diamonds, Mining and Gem Trends

The discovery of the Lucara Diamond in August in the Karowe Mine in northeast Botswana rocked the jewelry industry, but few were as moved by the historic find as Susan Jacques, the president and chief executive officer of the Gemological Institute of America. “As a gem geek, this is like finding the Holy Grail,” said Jacques. At 2,492 carats, the Lucara Diamond is the second largest diamond ever found, after the Cullinan Diamond, at 3,106 carats, which was discovered in 1905. “More than 100 years have gone by to find a second stone that is as remarkable,” observed Jacques. “These are treasures of Mother Nature.” The Cullinan Diamond was cut into 105 stones, but nine very major ones totaling more than 1,000 carats, Jacques said. “Some are in the Crown Jewels worn by the Queen and other members of the royal family. You see them at coronations and funerals.” Now the world awaits the fate of the Lucara Diamond, and the value that could be ascribed to it. “I’m sure the Lucara Diamond Corp.
