Getting Ready for the Gucci Show With New Brand Ambassador Cocona

XG kicked off its world tour in Japan last month — but group member Cocona has already started clocking international miles. The Japanese rapper recently traveled to Milan Fashion Week to attend Demna’s debut runway show as creative director of the house. In early February, Gucci introduced Cocona as its newest brand ambassador, and last week they joined other brand collaborators including Aryna Sabalenka, Lee Know, Jay Park, Alia Bhatt and Gulf Kanawut in the front row. Cocona’s ambassador announcement arrived shortly after the late January release of XG’s debut studio album The Core. Formerly known as “Xtraordinary Girls,” the group reintroduced themselves as “Xtraordinary Genes” at the start of 2026, after Cocona publicly shared they had undergone top surgery and identify as transmasculine nonbinary. For the Gucci show in Milan, Cocona wore a black two-piece Gucci suit that paid proud homage to their identity. Here, Cocona shares more of their experience from the show, why they are ...

Nicole Kidman opted for noir styling in a monochrome black ensemble with pieces by Khaite for her Monday night appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” in New York City.

I Got to Experience Alexis Bittar’s Jewelry Concierge Service at One of NYC’s Chicest Hotels — Here’s Everything to Know

If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, WWD may receive an affiliate commission. I found myself in a skyline-view room on the 12th floor of The Dominick: a luxury, five-star hotel in NYC’s Soho neighborhood (the only one there, in fact, with an AAA Five Diamond designation). What incited this spontaneous staycation? The Dominick’s latest partnership with jewelry designer Alexis Bittar’s eponymous label — which has accompanied Michelle Obama, Dua Lipa, Kylie Jenner, Gigi Hadid, Angelina Jolie, and countless other A-listers to photoshoots, Met Galas, and everything in between over the years. Now, I was looking at Alexis Bittar’s most-loved creations with my own eyes; not only that, but they were mine to enjoy long after I took the subway back home, courtesy of the fortuitous collaboration that’s running until June 1 and can be taken advantage of by booking a stay at The Dominick (just don’t forget to request the Alexis Bittar experience...

With Saverne, Chef Gabriel Kreuther Is Returning to His Culinary Roots

Gabriel Kreuther is feeling fired up about his new restaurant. Saverne marks the follow-up to the chef’s eponymous two Michelin-starred restaurant, located across from Bryant Park, which just celebrated its 10th anniversary. The invitation to open a new dining concept within The Spiral, a distinctive office building in Hudson Yards, aligned well with Kreuther’s desire to “do something different” while returning to the basis of cooking: fire.  “I always had in the back of my mind to do something with an open fire concept,” Kreuther says. Everything at Saverne revolves around the open kitchen, and the proximity to open flame is both a source of entertainment for diners and an invitation for internal reflection. “In a city where everybody goes 70 miles an hour, it makes you pause and think,” the chef says. “You forget a little bit what’s going on, what happened to your day, and you wander a little bit with your spirit as well.” Dishes from the Saverne menu.

Rebecca Ferguson Goes Gilded in Roberto Cavalli

Rebecca Ferguson opted for a crushed gold gown by Roberto Cavalli for Monday’s red carpet premiere of the forthcoming film “Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man” in Birmingham, England.

Chase Infiniti Channels Old Hollywood in Louis Vuitton on the SAG Actor Awards 2026 Red Carpet

Chase Infiniti took her red carpet style to the next level in a beaded Louis Vuitton gown for Sunday night’s Actor Awards in Los Angeles. The “One Battle After Another” star opted for a long sleeve, high heck gown with a skin tight fit save for the sculptural flare at the bottom of the full-length skirt and subtle flare at the ends of the sleeves. The garment was embellished all over with rows of small beads which added an understated sparkle to the neutral garment. Chase Infiniti at The 32nd Annual Actor Awards Presented by SAG-AFTRA held at the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall on March 1, 2026 in Los Angeles, California.

With ‘In the Guts of the Living,’ Elizabeth Neel Translates the Language of History Into the Art of the Present

Like many of us, Elizabeth Neel has been confronting a “crisis of faith.” “What are we doing, and why are we doing it?” she asks.  For Neel, that question — and her ongoing movement toward an answer — is reflected through painting. Her newest exhibition of work, “In the Guts of the Living,” offers an exploration of how information is transferred and transformed. The show is on view through early April at Jack Shainman Gallery’s New York flagship. And what better place to think about the ways in which interiority shifts over time than within a former bank? Unlike the white cube spaces of many galleries, Jack Shainman’s Lafayette Street location occupies a former Beaux-Arts bank hall within the historic Clock Tower building. The main exhibition room features a soaring ceiling and ornate marble architectural details that predate its identity as a gallery — remnants that Neel invites into her work. “My interest in history is very served by this space,” she says.
