For the crowd gathered inside Current at Chelsea Piers on Thursday night, time was on their side. Time Magazine was honoring the 2025 edition of its Time 100 Next List, which highlights emerging and influential voices across entertainment, science, tech, business and government. The room was packed with honorees including young Polymarket founder Shayne Coplan, musician Tate McRae, actress Teyana Taylor, “KPop Demon Hunters” director Maggie Kang, New Zealand politician Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke and Sudanese activist Emtithal Mahmoud, who performed a poem mid-dinner. “ I just feel really proud and happy to be on this list,” said “Sinners” star Miles Caton early in the evening. The film was released in April, and has remained one of the year’s buzziest films heading into awards season. “People resonated with it in so many different ways,” said Caton, nodding to the conversation around the movie. “I think we did what was meant to be done.” “I mean, to be in a room filled with so many infl...

The Friday before Halloween, Busy Philipps struck a familiar pose on the red carpet alongside Bette Midler. Both actresses were in character for Midler’s annual Hulaween costume benefit for the New York Restoration Project: Philipps as Loretta from “Moonstruck,” and Midler as a Crocs-wearing gardener. This year’s gala honored Midler for her dedication to the nonprofit, which she founded 30 years ago to maintain and sustain public green spaces across New York. Andy Cohen and Studios Architecture were also honored. “As a little girl who always felt like I was too much, Bette Midler was my idol,” said Philipps, who served as the event host. “Just being in her orbit is the most incredible thing — and to be there to honor her on the 30th anniversary of this incredible organization that she founded.” Guests included Martha Stewart, Michael Kors and Lance Le Pere, Sandra Bernhardt, Shoshana Bean, Ben Platt and Noah Galvin, and Marisha Wallace. The theme of this year’s Hulaween was “New York, ...

Michelle Obama’s style has been scrutinized in countless op-eds and social-media deep dives since she first entered the public eye in 2008. Almost two decades later, the former First Lady is rewriting the narrative in her own words. “During our family’s time in the White House, the way I looked was constantly being dissected — what I wore, how my hair was styled,” the lawyer, mother, wife, and self-proclaimed “hugger-in-chief” shares in a recent Instagram post. “For a while now, I’ve been wanting to reclaim more of that story.” The result? None other than a new book to add to her roster of bestselling works, including the hit memoir “Becoming” and “American Grown,” which details the rich and delicious history of the White House Kitchen Garden.

Johnson is no stranger to contemporary costuming, having worked with Lanthimos on his previous, present-day set feature “Kinds of Kindness.” But “Bugonia” introduced new challenges. Johnson spoke with WWD about working on the director’s latest, starring Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons and Aidan Delbis. For Johnson, “Bugonia,” an English-language, contemporary reimagining of the 2003 South Korean film “Save the Green Planet!” by filmmaker Jang Joon-hwan, had to feel tangible. “It was really important for Yorgos that it feel more realistic initially; that we play it a little straight.” “Bugonia” follows conspiracy theorist Teddy and his cousin Don, played by Plemons...

It’s common knowledge by now, too, that no winter season is complete without attending a performance of “George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker,” put on by the New York City Ballet every year. In 2024, the iconic dance company celebrated 70 years of “The Nutcracker,” but it shows no signs of stopping its annual odes to Balanchine’s magical choreography set to a soundtrack by Tchaikovsky. While we realize not everyone lives in New York, this is an occasion that truly merits a trip to the big city. Staged at Lincoln Center’s David H. Koch Theater, the show draws in close to 100,000 attendees yearly, which really comes as no surprise, seeing as how the ballet’s classic plot (of Clara’s nu...

Naomi Watts’ “All’s Fair” promotional tour style has not been short on designer pieces. The two-time Oscar-nominated actress, who often works with stylist Jeanann Williams, has already worn head-to-toe pieces from the likes of Schiaparelli and Mugler, but it’s her versatile handbags that have really drawn attention. With varying designs from international and domestic fashion houses, Watts’ handbags include everything from casual, everyday bucket bags to red-carpet-ready clutches.

If you’ve always scoffed at people who have their Christmas tree up by Halloween, it’s time to be a bit more open-minded this year. Based on tariffs affecting imports from China to the U.S. (and the fact that “roughly 90 percent of all artificial Christmas trees are made in China,” per CNBC, with similar stats affecting Christmas decor as a whole), limited inventory is expected across multiple categories of seasonal decorative goods as companies cut back on imports or halt them entirely. What this means in layman’s terms? Should you choose to shop for your faux pine wreath during the first week of December, you might be met with a dreaded “out of stock” notification. It’s common industry knowledge that the holiday decor shopping boom happens around Black Friday each year, so we’re urging you to take matters into your own hands by setting aside time to sco...

For costume designer Kate Hawley, working with director Guillermo del Toro on “Frankenstein” wasn’t just an invitation to have a seat at his creative table. “He always talks about the department heads as being legs of his table. We are all one with the other,” says Hawely, who previously worked with the director on “Crimson Peak.” “When he asks you to do something, you know that it’s going to be rich and that it’s gonna be a rewarding collaboration,” she adds. The sartorial world of “Frankenstein” is an extension of the film’s saturated, Gothic atmosphere. “There’s all these themes of religion and mythologies with Medusas,” says Hawley, adding that Del Toro “didn’t just want a sea of black Victorian, Dickensian top hats.” The costume designer was tasked with dressing well-known characters like experimental scientist Victor Frankenstein, his Creature-creation, and love interest Elizabeth. “There’s a huge amount of world building within each character,” says Hawley. Sometimes, her entran...

The red carpet is evolving, and so are the rules of cosmetic care. While some public figures are increasingly open about cosmetic procedures, many actors still favor discretion and staying naturally expressive on camera. As the stars get ready for the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards — to honor the best of television, on Sept. 14 at the Peacock Theater in Downtown Los Angeles — the latest routines have become a mix of strategic treatments, subtle enhancements and wellness practices, with preparation starting months in advance. “Good cosmetic care, whether it’s non-surgical or surgical, should be largely undetectable,” contends Dr. Julius Few. “That should be the goal.” For more than two decades, the L.A.- and Chicago-based plastic surgeon has rejected the extremes and pioneered what he calls “quiet plastic surgery.” “The worst thing anybody can do is make somebody look like they’ve been fundamentally altered, especially if you’re famous,” he goes on. “And eyes are really like fingerprints.

A perimenopausal woman, a postmenopausal woman, a soon-to-be mom and a preteen can all find full body wellness solutions at Ulta Beauty. Under The Wellness Shop, there’s period care, sexual wellness solutions and hormonal support supplements in one section. It’s a far cry from tampons on aisle 5, multivitamins on aisle 9 and lubricant on aisle 10. It heralds a new approach that an increasing number of brands and retailers are starting to take when it comes to women’s over-the-counter full-body solutions. According to Ulta Beauty’s vice president of wellness Laura Beres, the goal is to address “all ages and stages.” Over the past few years, women’s wellness has become a super trendy category at retail, with new brands popping up daily. There’s been the tween period care craze, the menopause movement, the seed cycling wave and a deeper focus on fertility. Now, as the category has matured, retailers like Ulta Beauty and brands like O Positiv are broadening their assortment to focus on a w...

Fall is here, and, with it, we’re all realizing once again just how crucial of an investment luxury shoulder bags are — above all other purse styles, dare we suggest. Such bags, whether angular or boho-chic and slouchy, tend to be a gal’s go-to: used like a daily commuter bag, a handy hauler for weekend adventures, or the cherry on top of a chic date-night ‘fit. A truly worth-every-penny shoulder bag allows the wearer to go hands-free, moving with ease while it fits comfortably under their arm. But not every luxury shoulder bag is meant to be a daytime catchall for cherished tchotchkes. Petite purses that hang on the shoulder can and should be used in fancier settings, completing your evening ensemble when you’re headed to the opera, say (think the iconic Fendi Baguette or elongated East-West styles that might not be able to house your tablet but can ...

Things have been “surreal” for Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas for the better part of this year. The Norwegian actress stars in Joachim Trier’s new film, “Sentimental Value,” alongside Stella Skarsgard, Renate Reinave and Elle Fanning, and it has been one of the year’s buzziest movies since its premiere at Cannes. “I’ve never been on a red carpet before, not like that. So that was kind of crazy,” Lilleaas recalls of the festival. “And then it’s been just crazy ever since. I wouldn’t say I’m getting used to it, but I’m getting more at ease with the situation.

Calling the airline is of no use. Tracking options are unavailable. All hope is lost.

Moments before stepping onstage for “Ragtime”‘s opening night, star Joshua Henry was moved by a note from a familiar face in the audience.  That someone was Brian Stokes Mitchell, who originated the role of Coalhouse Walker Jr. on Broadway in 1998. “The highlight of the night for me was seeing Stokes,” Henry says the afternoon after opening night. “He sent me a picture of him doing ‘Ragtime’ and a special note saying, ‘Coalhouse is now yours. It’s your voice, it’s your soul. And so enjoy it.’” The packed house included fellow “Ragtime” originating cast member Audra McDonald and other members of the Broadway community like Rachel Zegler, Danielle Brooks, Ben Platt and Noah Galvin, Phillipa Soo, Michael Urie, Adrienne Warren, Danny Burstein and more. “ I feel really peaceful,” says Henry, at home with his family a few hours before needing to head back for the Friday evening performance. “A little tired.

If you come away from watching Luca Guadagnino’s new movie “After the Hunt” inspired to break out your sharpest blazer and white denim, you’re not alone. Costume designer Giulia Piersanti has been hearing nothing but that from people who have seen the film, which tickles her given she based Julia Roberts’ wardrobe on what she sees women actually wearing in real life. “A lot of my research came from working women,” Piersanti says, over a Zoom call last week. “There were reference pictures that I found from women from the ’80s and today, and to me it’s a wardrobe that goes through time. When you say timeless, it’s really quite literally this.” Piersanti, whose day job is head of knitwear for Celine, has done the costumes for close friend Guadagnino for several films now including, “A Bigger Splash,” “Call Me by Your Name,” “Suspiria” and “Bones and All.” The duo teamed back up for Guadagnino’s latest, “After the Hunt,” which stars Roberts, Ayo Edebiri and Andrew Garfield in a #MeToo-era ...

 The Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show has been many things throughout the years — sexy, inclusive, on hiatus during the #MeToo era — but one thing has never changed: it’s always been pink. On Wednesday night, the lingerie brand returned to the Brooklyn Navy Yard for a second consecutive year. A trail of pink led the way to the pink carpet and runway inside Stage 15, where every detail imaginable had been rendered through the world of Victoria’s Secret. The loading dock gate was pink. The cocktails at the pink-striped bars were pink. Even the safety vests worn by lot attendants were pink for the occasion. “It’s a full cultural event,” said executive creative director Adam Selman, who was looking forward to celebrating after the show with friends like Amy Sedaris, who made her way down the carpet in a light pink tulle skirt and leopard-print pumps.

Everything Meghan Markle touches turns to gold, or, more accurately, everything she endorses by way of wearing it goes the way of the Dodo — selling out just as fast as her As Ever jams. So imagine our surprise at the fact that a pair of gold earrings the royal wore yesterday (while speaking at the Fortune Most Powerful Women Summit 2025 in Washington, D.C.) is still in stock and easily shoppable. Looking sharp and corp-core coded, in a kind of ode to her “Suits” era, Markle donned a billowing, ivory-hued blouse; a pencil skirt to match; and nude pumps for the occasion. She was in D.C. to speak about everything from the state of women in business to her own strategies with lifestyle brand As Ever, but fans were also able to get something else out of it: another confirmation of the fact that the Duchess’ style is nothing if not steal-worthy. So st...

Being fired has never been more celebrated than it was Tuesday evening. Laura Brown and Kristina O’Neill, former editor in chiefs of InStyle and WSJ Magazine respectively, toasted the publication of their new book “All the Cool Girls Get Fired” with a party at Rockefeller Center the day of the book’s publication.  In addition to just about every magazine editor and fashion publicist in New York, guests included Julianne Moore, Barbara Bush, Jeff Koons, Jenna Lyons, Gucci Westman, Deborra-Lee Furness, Candace Bushnell and Andrew Ross Sorkin. The idea for the book came from O’Neill, after Brown posted a photo of the two of them following the announcement of O’Neill’s firing in April 2023. (Brown had been let go from InStyle the previous year.) Her post, since deleted, was captioned with what is now their book title, and O’Neill called her with the idea. “I think there was a squeal of a decibel not often heard, perhaps only by dogs,” was how Brown described the feeling of holding the ...

The Grammy Award-winning singer wore a look from the Italian luxury fashion house’s 2003 collection, featuring sensual lace-up elements evocative of corsetry and bondage in equal measure.

Gilbert Flores Lace-up detailing was featured running down the front of the bodice, at the hips, the neckline and skirt in sinuous patterning.

Zauner, who performs as Japanese Breakfast, recently joined Roan as an opening act for the pop star’s “Visions of Damsels and Other Dangerous Things” tour.

And this was a great way to go see the show.” Zauner, who’s wra...
