In a Christmas gift come early, the 2024 Fashion Awards (TFA), presented by Pandora, will be fulfilling our Christmas wishes on Monday the 2nd of December at the world-famous Royal Albert Hall. The British Fashion Council (BFC) has also announced that British broadcaster and entrepreneur Maya Jama and musical artist Kojey Radical will return as beloved co-hosts for the awards, guiding us through an evening that celebrates the role of fashion at the crux of culture and entertainment, spotlighting creative talent and telling the stories of the past year in fashion.

TFA have always excelled in bringing together a global community in London, the home of fashion creativity. Working to amplify leaders of change, celebrate excellence in creativity as well as support the next generation of creative talent, this event is also the primary fundraiser of the BFC Foundation which works endlessly to promote the future of British fashion through focusing on education, grant-giving and business mentoring. Through a focus on diversity, equality, inclusion, and belonging, the BFC enables responsible growth through a dynamic and unified community that advocates for creativity, innovation, and collectively supports the industry to grow and talent to gain access. TFA is the primary fundraiser for the BFC Foundation, once again highlighting its importance not only culturally, but for the good of the creative youth.

So, in case you’ve been living under a rock, let’s meet this year’s TFA presenters! The gorgeous Maya Jama, host of mainstream television and radio shows including everyone’s favourite guilty pleasure, Love Island, has become a household name and style icon. Not only stealing our hearts on-screen, but she has also established herself as an avid supporter of British fashion and emerging creatives, even dabbling in design herself and launching a successful clothing collection with Pretty Little Thing in June 2018, followed by a second collection in February 2019 and in December 2020 launching her own face and eye masks range, MIJ Masks, with the first release selling out within 24 hours. In May 2024, Maya joined the BFC Foundation Advisory Committee, showcasing her continued commitment to supporting and championing British fashion.

Kojey Radical, British musician, creative director and mixed-media visual artist is one of the leading voices of a generation of artists and provocative storytellers. Specialising in blurring the boundaries between music genres including grime, hip hop, alternative rap and spoken word, this multi- award nominee, Kojey is an authentic and uncompromising creative force who continues to innovate both in his music and his style. The knowledge of arts and intertwining genres is especially prevalent in the fashion world, and we’re confident Kojey will once again be an expert voice and presenter this year.

Caroline Rush, Chief Executive, British Fashion Council has spoken of the duo: “We are delighted that Maya and Kojey are returning as the co-hosts this year. It was a pleasure to watch them on stage last year, their love and support of British fashion and emerging talent makes them the perfect duo for the job. I am really looking forward to seeing their dynamic energy on stage again as we celebrate the year in fashion.” And we couldn’t agree more!

Whether you know her as a young Disney star, half of the Grammy-winning R&B duo Chloe x Halle, or as the Little Mermaid, there’s no denying that she does it all. Being in the spotlight for so long means she’s been serving looks since 2008, rocking everything from edgy ensembles to whimsical princess gowns. And with her dipping her mermaid tail into Hollywood as the live-action Ariel, there’s no better time to look back at her style evolution.

For one of her first red carpets, Chloe and her sister formed an adorable duo with these crystal embellished dresses and equally shining smiles.

For their VMA’s debut Halle and her sister changed it up again, this time going for over-the-top, classy Iris Van Herpen dresses that no doubt turned heads.

Wearing Versace, this look is one of the first times we see Halle rock the cut-out style– but definitely not the last.

Walking the red carpet solo, Halle stunned in a white Mônot dress that continued her love affair with cut-outs; and made her look badass.

And for the most fashionable event of the season, Halle did not come to play with this pink-tasseled Rodarte ensemble that was just as ethereal as her voice.

Academy Awards, 2022

For her first Academy Awards, Halle paired a (you guessed it) cut-out Roberto Cavalli dress with matching heels. With a look like that, it’s no wonder Disney chose her to play one of their most iconic princesses.

With this blue tulle Dolce & Gabanna dress, the actress and musician cemented her role as a fairytale princess.

For her second time on the carpet, she wore a Gucci sheer halter dress with a voluminous ruffled cape. One thing’s for sure: she looked just as dreamy as Ariel.

This dress is the catalyst of her mermaid aesthetic, with a Valdrin Sahiti gown that makes her look like she swam straight from the ocean to the carpet.

]]> This week’s Insta looks are inspiring us to take simple basics we already own and turn them into an eye-catching outfit—whether that means going for a statement monochrome look, layering multiple pieces, or playing around with unconventional accessories.

Koleen Diaz

The influencer celebrated her 26th birthday in Santorini, wearing this insane red dress from Blumarine. The dress features ruffles and a rosette, two major fashion trends this season. For jewellery, she wore these statement cross earrings and long dangling chains, as well as gold and precious stone bracelets. 

Vanessa Hong

Vanessa was embracing the cold weather in this monochrome cream outfit. The super comfy coat and trousers are made of ribbed fur, literally making you feel like you’re wearing a blanket. She kept the colour scheme going with a cream tank top underneath and a knitted beanie. Going quite minimalistic on the accessories, she wore a silver chain necklace, a rosette choker, rose-tinted sunglasses, and a diamanté rosette mini bag from Mach & Mach. 

Teyana Taylor

Celebrating the Hennessy X.O x Kim Jones collab, Teyana rocked her signature edgy street style. She wore this black and yellow distressed biker jacket and layered two large pearl chains around her front. Adding to the utilitarian vibe, she wore baggy white cargo pants with a ripped-hem detail and chunky futuristic trainers. She also played with accessories, mixing different earrings and wearing thick-rimmed yellow-tinted sunglasses. 

Brenda Tham

Brenda is making the most of the warm weather, opting for a dress over trousers and no coat. The denim maxi dress is very on-trend right now, and we love the strappy details. The yellow details on the waist add dimension and match the inside, and the trousers underneath are screaming 2000s. 

Leomie Anderson

The model looked effortlessly cool in these pieces from the new Mugler x H&M collection. She wore mid-wash contrast-panelled jeans with a leather bralette and a long-sleeve glove top. She accessorised with hoop earrings and a huge statement necklace made up of silver spikes. 

Mariah The Scientist

Performing in Washington DC with Future, Mariah was serving highland chic with a pleated high-low kilt from Jaded London paired with a graphic t-shirt. She wore these futuristic leather boots from Rick Owens, a thick eyelet belt, and diamond-encrusted jewellery to add some sparkle.

Stefflon Don

Steff wore this black, double-strap feathered mini dress with a slit up the side, perfect for a night out. She dressed it up with sparkly silver wrap-around heels, silver rings, and diamond earrings. Finally, she wore sunglasses to add a cool, undercover vibe. 

Cindy Kimberly

Cindy looked super cute and classy in this minimalistic black bodycon dress. She added a timeless element by wearing a Chanel pearl strand around her waist, but kept it casual with white quilted Chanel slides. Her jewellery added to the classy look, mixing a gold Van Cleef and Arpels bracelet with a gold Cartier tank and gold Chanel double C earrings.

The post Dior Celebrates Indian Talent In Mumbai appeared first on Voir Fashion.

]]> For the fall 2023 show Maria Grazia Chiuri, creative director of women’s collections at Dior, wanted to explore how feelings and emotions can connect us with a country and its culture.

Both Chiuri and Dior have a long history with India and this was embraced for the collaboration through work relations and friendship. She has a close friendship with Karishma Swali, the director of Chanakya atelier and Chanakya school of craft. Chiuri first began working with the atelier two decades ago and the collection relies on their mastery of embroidery and traditional Indian techniques, while putting emphasis on empowering female Indian artisans and their inventiveness.

Dior’s relationship with India goes even further back, with former artistic director Marc Bohan
travelling to India in 1962 to showcase looks in Mumbai and Delhi.

Chiuri paid homage to the initial meeting by incorporating a quote found in the archives, ‘L’Union fait la force’, meaning ‘Union is strength’ into the collection, visualising how working together creates fresh connective energies, like combining classic Dior silhouettes with traditional Indian designs.

The show took place at the Gateway of India monument in Mumbai, which was built in the early 20th century to commemorate the British monarchy’s first-ever visit to India. The arch is a metaphor for the fusion of cultures and traditions. Erected in front of the arch was a 14-meter-tall Toran, an embroidered fabric traditionally hung at the entrance to welcome guests into your home. It featured elephants, tigers, and peacocks and took 35,000 hours of handwork and encompassed 25 craft techniques. The Chanakya ateliers and School of Craft worked together over several months to create it using phulkari, french knotting, kantha, and mirror work techniques. After emerging from the Toran, models paraded between dozens of gold candles and ornate arrangements of marigolds.

]]> Doja is ditching the pink and embracing the darkness as she embarks on a new era in 2023. In an interview with Variety earlier this month, the flamboyant star disclosed that at some point this year she’ll be dropping her fourth studio album that will break away from her previous vibrant poppy style and instead include more rap.

She told the magazine, “I know that I’ve done a lot of pink and soft things, a lot of pop and glittery sounds but for this next era, I’m going in a more masculine direction”.

Though in the past Doja has always loved a girly moment this grungier direction is not a total surprise to fans as she seems to have steadily been incorporating more edgier elements into her style and music throughout her career. She experimented with rap on the track ‘Vegas’ she recorded for Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis last year and even on her glitzy second album Hot Pink she toyed with punky looks wearing a black cut-out mesh dress with smoky make-up in the music video for ‘Streets’.

The boundary-pushing artist also expressed her desire to explore punk and told Variety, “I want to explore more of a raw, unfiltered, hardcore punk sort of thing. It’s just something that I’m doing for my own personal fun — getting some drummers and guitarists together”.

Although she also added, “I don’t even know if that’s gonna make it out there”.

As for a tour announcement, we’ll have to wait a bit longer. Doja told Variety that currently she has no plans for a tour: “I do want to make sure that everything I’m doing right now in terms of recording is solidified before I make any decisions. The baby hasn’t been born yet”.

A quick scroll at Doja’s Instagram illuminates this evolution with her recent fashion choices reflecting the change in her sound. Before October, her ‘gram showed outfits full of pinks, yellows, and white pieces among the quirky posts of her dogs, silly selfies, and feet pics. Now the singer posts stunning images of her in full gothic glam with plenty of dark leather, PVC, and lacy looks to drool over.

To honour Doja’s style revamp here are a few pieces you can use to achieve her vampy looks.

Doja pulled up to the Valentino Spring 2023 Couture show channelling Betty Page in a long black wig with micro bangs, a gorgeous jet-black full-length wool coat, and a glam two-piece set with a black crystal bra and black mini skirt. Elevating her look were a pair of chic PVC heels, sheer tights, black gloves, and diamond crucifix necklaces. The real star of the show was her custom Chris Habana crystal white glove bag holding a bottle of Patrón – sadly you’ll struggle to get your hands on one of those.

For her Variety shoot, the singer rocked many seductive countess looks. Posing with several snakes, the singer wore a sheer bodycon dress with a brown lip and 90s thin brows for one look.

In another, she went full dominatrix in a boxy leather trench coat tucked into a leather thong complete with chain necklaces and a whip.

Doja plays with menswear in another outstanding fit. Taking amen’s shirt, tie, and baseball cap she makes it high fashion by pairing it with a leather micro mini from Luis De Javier. The studded boots and mesh long sleeve peeking through gives this look a subtle edge.

In a slightly softer look, she pairs a black mesh floral long-sleeve with a black leather skirt to create wearable everyday goth glam. Styled with soft brunette locks, a brown lined lip, and heavy black liner she looks straight out of the 90s.

]]> Ice Spice is here to change the rap game – and she’s not waiting for her peers to catch up. On the 20th January, the rapper dropped her much-awaited debut EP, which was announced only hours before its release, and it’s far from disappointing. Sharp, sexy, fun, and fresh – Like… is bringing a feminine revamp to drill that the genre needed.

Those who have yet to hear of Isis Gaston, the 23-year-old rapper from NYC, will soon see her name popping up everywhere. She was featured on Vevo’s Artists to Watch in 2023 list and has already built a huge fanbase with 3M followers on Instagram and 2.7M on TikTok. She’s been likened to our fav rappers Saweetie and GloRilla by critics and has gained fans in the Weeknd who shared the track ‘Gangsta Boo’ on his story this week and Drake who played her single ‘Munch (Feelin’ U)’ in his Sirius XM radio station. She first gained attention when a video of her doing the “Buss It” challenge went viral on Twitter back in 2021 and she’s been climbing the rap ranks ever since bringing her unique flare with her.

Like… encapsulates the gen Z sound to its core. The songs are short and snappy with looped high-pitched instrumentals, popping drill bass, and an unwavering nonchalance in Ice’s vocals – it’s no surprise that she has gained fans in the chronically online youth as her tracks sound deeply TikTok-inspired. The songs even begin with a short skit (“Grrah/Stop playin’ with ’em, RIOT/Grrah”) that mimics the rapid buzz of noise like that of scrolling through TikTok. At 13 minutes long Like… may be brief but those beats are memorable.

Despite her modern sound Ice Spice’s influences include time-honoured artists Lil’ Kim, Nicki Minaj, Cardi B, Foxy Brown, Erykah Badu, and Lauryn Hill demonstrating she is well-versed in the world of R&B and rap.

The singles on the EP are the snappy playful ‘Munch (Feelin’ U)’, the Spongebob-esque ‘Bikini Bottom’, and the hip-mover ‘In Ha Mood’, all released in the last half of 2022. ‘Munch (Feelin’ U)’ was unsurprisingly a winner with the internet going viral on Twitter and TikTok as well as charting on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Bubbling Under Hot 100 charts.

A standout on the EP is fellow Bronx rapper Lil Tay’s collaboration with Ice on ‘Gangsta Boo’. His high-pitched fast-paced flow contrasts Ice Spice’s relaxed flow and deep vocals well. Ice Spice’s long-time collaborator RiotUSA, who produced the EP, sampled P. Diddy’s ‘I Need a Girl Part 2’ for the track creating an absolute earworm of a melody.

Ice Spice makes it clear she doesn’t care whether you like her or not with her ultra-cool relaxed attitude, which ironically is the reason we love her. Her lyrics express an aloofness as to what the haters think with her witty responses indicating she doesn’t take herself too seriously. In ‘Ha Mood’ she claps back at the haters who are jealous of her success, “Oh, she mad ’cause I’m takin’ her spot/If I was bitches, I’d hate me a lot”. She also hits back at internet trolls in ‘Bikini Bottom’ telling them, “I got two milli’ for usin’ a mic, bitch/Think about that when you type”. Ice compares herself with the much-loved Princess of Wales in ‘Princess Diana’ after a fan dubbed her “the modern-day Princess Diana” in a now-viral tweet suggesting she realises her own charm. In ‘Gangsta Boo’ Ice gets spicy singing “You got a gangsta vibe/ And I want a gangsta boo” in a chorus that won’t leave your head for days. Ice has her own lexis pool that we just want to dive into. She introduces us to the newest (and cutest) term for being a hoe in ‘Actin A Smoochie’ and that you just can’t help smiling at. Likewise, ‘Munch (Feelin’ U)’ brings the ladies the NYC-originating diss “munch” aimed at men that get a bit too cocky.

So far, two of the tracks from the Like… have music videos both of which display Ice Spice’s unique tongue-in-cheek spirit. ‘Bikini Bottom’ features Ice Spice partying with hotties and rapping with a wry smile in the corner of her mouth in front of a garish green screen as money flows down on her. It’s a bombardment on the eyes as the video jaggedly cuts from shot to shot – and we can’t look away. The video for ‘Munch (Feelin’ U)’ has a similar vibe with cartoon butterflies and graphics of the lyrics flying across the screen whilst Ice Spice chills with her friends on a basketball court making us wish we were bad enough to dance with the newly crowned princess of drill.

With her signature orange afro, glossy lips, and on-point style that mixes y2k-inspired belts and chains with skin-tight bright dresses and co-ords Ice Spice’s look is seamless. Her Instagram is full of a variety of looks that whilst different all convey Ice’s cohesive style. We’ve pieced together some pieces that will help you replicate Ice Spice’s baddie look.

Retro fire red Jordan 4s, light blue skinny jeans, and a cropped silver puffer make up the staples of this throwback fit reminiscent of some of Missy Elliott’s looks in the noughties. Add a chunky chain, half a dozen rings, and starred white XL square nails to complete the look.

This colourful curve-hugging two-piece made from braided fabrics is super flattering on Ice Spice. She accessories the outfit perfectly with ripped white tights, a silver Balenciaga shoulder bag, white fluffy Demonia boots, her classic chunky silver chain, a bejewelled heart ring, and long black nails.

Ice glows in her chat with Genius about ‘Bikini Bottom’. She wears a black fluffy cardigan with a black bra peaking out, cute white moon leggings from Marine Serre, with a heart chain. Her tie dye patterned yellow, green, and orange nails are super cute too.

The green stilettos and yellow nails match perfectly with this orange, green, blue, and yellow striped skin-hugging maxi dress. And of course Ice’s orange mane is the perfect icing on top of the cake.

Ice gives Instagram the finger in a distressed red catsuit looking exceptionally snatched. She styles with a black Prada shoulder bag and black tabis. We love how she mixes chic accessories with a more racy look to bring together the fit.
