Paramore

The pop punk band make a much-welcomed return in 2023 with their sixth studio album This Is Why set to release next month. Paramore will embark on a huge tour that starts in February and will run through until early August. Supported by the likes of Bloc Party and Foals this is one party you’ll find us at.

Shygirl

Our favourite mythical creature will be visiting a venue near you this year as she undertakes her world tour to promote her ethereal debut album Nymph which came out last year. With intergalactic trancey beats, flashing neon lights, and Shygirl showcasing glittery garms we wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.

Taylor Swift

Probably the most anticipated tour on our list. The Eras tour will mark Taylor’s first tour since 2018. Having not had a chance to tour Lover, Folklore, and Evermore due to the pandemic the tour will be in support of all her albums including of course her latest Midnights that came out last year. The tour will feature an extraordinary number of amazing women-led support acts such as Paramore, beabadoobee, Phoebe Bridges, Girl in Red, MUNA, Haim, Gracie Abrams, and GAYLE. Whilst so far only US dates have been announced for the first leg something tells us more dates will be following shortly.

Weyes Blood

Weyes Blood, the mystical soft rock singer-songwriter Natalie Mering, has set off on her In Holy Flux tour. The tour started back in December and the singer will cover the US and Europe by its end in April. Evoking eerie folk-pop vibes these shows will give all those who love a bit of spooky feminine magic life.

SZA

The woman of the moment SZA is due to start her tour exhibiting her R&B masterpiece SOS in February. The album, which came out in December last year, has been praised by critics as one of the best albums of 2022. At the moment only US dates have been announced but we’re crossing our fingers for UK dates to be dropped soon!

The Weeknd

We are unbelievably excited to see Abel Tesfaye perform Dawn Fm, his 80s-inspired dance/R&B album, on his After Hours Til Dawn Tour this year. The second leg of the tour continues in June with The Weeknd playing Europe, the UK, and Latin America. We’re sure seeing ‘Sacrifice’ live will be mind-blowing.

Sam Smith

Sam Smith will be undertaking a huge tour to celebrate the release of their album Gloria, which comes out later this month. The ‘Stay With Me’ singer’s tour starts in April and will run all the way to November with the tour beginning in the UK. Sure to bring healing energy as well as a few spicy moments, their shows will be a blast.

Lizzo

If you’re looking for a night full of fun and giggles look no further. Lizzo is touring The Special Tour commencing next month with dates in the UK, Europe, and the US. The tour will be promoting Special the funk-pop-disco hybrid that came out last year and includes the banger ‘About Damn Time’. We think it’s about damn time you get tickets.

Angel Olsen

American singer-songwriter Angelina Maria Carroll, better known by her stage name Angel Olsen, will be continuing her winter tour from now until March travelling through the US and then Australia. The tour will be showcasing her sixth Americana-style studio album Big Time which was released in June of last year. We just know it would be glorious to hear Olsen’s lush vocals live.

Big Thief

Big Thief had a stellar year in 2022 with the release of their highly praised alt-country inspired album Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You. The warm receival of the album as well as the popularity of their shows last year have led to another tour. After their American dates, the band will be coming to the UK in April before they move to Europe so make sure you get your hands on some tickets.

Caroline Polachek

 To promote her album Desire, I Want To Turn Into You coming next month the American singer-songwriter Caroline Polachek will be embarking on her Spiraling tour starting in the UK in February before she travels to Europe and then back to the US. Promising electrifyingly good pop music, an energetic adoring crowd, and of course stunningly chic outfits you won’t want to miss out.

Harry Styles

The British icon Harry Styles continues his Love on Tour tour this year to celebrate the release of his number one album Harry’s House. The singer is set to tour Australia, Asia, Europe, and the UK lasting until late June. Harry’s shows are sure to be a huge spectacle and with the Grammy-nominated band Wet Leg his tour is a must-see.

The nominees for this year were announced back in November 2022 but just in case you missed them here are some of our favourite artists who are up for a prize.

The nominations for Record of the Year in the general field (that recognises the producers, sound engineers, and sound mixers as well as the performing artist) includes Sweden’s pop icons ABBA’s ‘Don’t Shut Me Down’, 28 time Grammy winner “Queen Bee” Beyoncé’s ‘Break My Soul’, the nation’s favourite soul singer Adele’s ‘Easy On Me’, the oh-so bad Doja Cat’s ‘Woman’, indie hero Steve Lacy’s ‘Bad Habit’, our favourite rapper Kendrick Lamar’s ‘The Heart Part 5’, diva Lizzo’s ‘About Damn Time’, and teen girl heartthrob Harry Style’s ‘As It Was’.

Up for awards in the Song of the Year category are the tracks by Adele, Beyoncé, Harry Styles, Steve Lacy, Lizzo, and Kendrick Lamar nominated for Record of the Year as well as the infamous DJ Khaled’s ‘God Did’ featuring Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, John Legend & Fridayy, the singer-songwriter Taylor Swift’s short film ‘All Too Well’, and the artist that blew up TikTok Gayle’s ‘ABCDEFU’.

The albums nominated for the Album of the Year include: 30 by Adele, Voyage by ABBA, Un Verano Sin Ti by Bad Bunny, RENAISSANCE by Beyoncé, Mr Morale & The Big Stepper by Kendrick Lamar, Special by Lizzo, and Harry’s House by Harry Styles.

Among the artist nominated for best new artists is our fav cheeky indie band Wet Leg whose punk single ‘Chaise Long’ released on their eponymous debut album last year has gathered millions of streams. Brazilian Latin pop artist Anitta has also been nominated having risen to international fame over the last few years. Samara Joy, the 23-year-old American Jazz singer, is up for the award as well as having released her second album as a leading musician Linger Awhile last year. The Eurovision-famous Italian Glam rock band Måneskin who are about to drop their 3rd studio album Rush! Later this month, are among the nominees in the category too.

Fans of Drake and The Weeknd may be surprised to not see them nominated in a single category. Last year the Grammys ended its secret-committee nominations in the four main categories in the general field (Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artists) following protests sparked by the 2021 Grammys when it was revealed the Weeknd’s hugely successful After Hours and single ‘Blinding Light’ did not receive a single nomination. The Weeknd and Drake continue to boycott the awards this year.

With any of our music idols – Beyoncé, Doja Cat, Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar, Bad Bunny, and Lizzo, to name a few – bound to come home with one or two prizes this year there’s no way you’ll want to miss out. Grab your popcorn, a little booze, and of course your besties ready for a watch party in style. The Grammys will broadcast on CBS Television Network at 8-11:30 ET and will be available on Paramount + for fellow UK viewers.

A collaboration we all have been waiting for has finally been confirmed. After Gucci’s expansion into kitchenware and their collab with North Face and Adidas, they have teamed up with Harry Styles in honour of his and Gucci’s Creative Creators’ friendship. The 25-piece collection was revealed in Milan yesterday, featuring jackets, coats, trousers, shirts and accessories in seventies style and vintage silhouettes.

HA HA HA is the name of their collection – named after the expression “hahaha” that Styles and Michele use to end their What’s App conversations, but also the initials of “Harry” and “Alessandro”. “Born from a creative relationship that self-generates from amusement and ends with the tangibility of a product”, the collection symbolises their creative exchange and shared perspective on fashion.

Creative Director Alessandro Michele writes, “The idea of working together came to me one day while we were talking on the phone: I proposed creating a ‘dream wardrobe’ with him, starting from those small oddities that come together in childlike visions. We ended up with a mix of aesthetics from 1970s pop and bohemian to the revision of the image of the gentleman in an overturned memory of men’s tailoring.”

Harry Styles lives up to his surname. Without doubt the 28-year-old singer is one of the biggest fashion icons of our generation. His basic outfits with the extra touch and fun are unconventional and gender bending.

So this collaboration comes with no surprise, as Styles and Alessandro Michele have a long-term friendship. They met when the singer had just left One Direction to start his solo career, and Michele had taken over Gucci. Since then, they “grew together”. Harry Styles appeared in campaigns and has worn Gucci on the red carpet to photo shoots and concerts for years.

The collection will be in stores in October. Knowing Harry Styles Fans, but also fashion enthusiast, the capsule wardrobe will sell out quickly. To celebrate this collab, we gathered our favourite Gucci looks worn by Harry Styles.

Gucci have been kicking off their centennial anniversary in true style, showcasing multiple collections, a collab with Balenciaga, and now their very own talk show for their newest handbag campaign.

The iconic fashion brand launched the Beloved range this week, featuring several bags from the Gucci archives as well as some clever reimaginings. Under the guidance of designer Alessandro Michele, the campaign for the Beloved range sees Gucci’s handbags paired with some of today’s most famous faces in a talk show setting. 

‘The Beloved Show’ is hosted by The Late Late Show’s James Corden, and features the likes of Harry Styles, Dakota Johnson, Serena Williams, Diane Keaton, Awkwafina, and Sienna Miller in the hot seat as they proudly showcase their favourite Gucci bags. The two-minute video clips are packed full of old Hollywood aesthetics (courtesy of Harmony Korine), gorgeous clothing, and that awkward humour that characterises the typical American talk show. 

What sets ‘The Beloved Show’ apart from the typical talk show, however, is the star. While we may initially gravitate towards the pretty faces of recognisable celebrities, it’s the bags they hold up to the camera that steal the show. The stars, rather than promote their latest single, film, or sporting achievement, are there to discuss their favourite Gucci bag – and maybe have a giggle or two while they’re at it. 

Speaking on this aspect of the campaign, Michele commented:

“We decided to show the concept of ‘beloved’ in an ironic way in the campaign, being inspired by the fact that bags are the protagonists in my life and in the lives of many other people… We went back in time to the original TV talk shows, where the protagonist is the bag itself, the big star. Very often these creations are named after influential women who conditioned the habits and customs of many. It’s precisely because they have great personalities that in the industry we gave them these powerful names; and now we have them in a show and twisted with the idea that there were two stars: the bag and the actual talent. A game of cross-references between the two great protagonists.” 

Harry Styles’ full campaign video dropped yesterday. The house ambassador for Gucci was styled in maximalist fashion, donning an oversized fur coat, a patterned shirt, and flared jeans from the brand’s SS21 Collection. At his side, Styles wore his favourite Gucci accessory: the Jackie 1961 bag. 

First introduced in the 1950s as the Constance, the Jackie bag was renamed a few years later to commemorate the former first lady of the US, Jackie Kennedy Onassis. The Jackie has since become a house signature and was reimagined by Michele for the Gucci AW20 Collection; the iconic half-moon shoulder bag taking on a new pastel colour palette that simultaneously brought in a new age for Gucci while harking back to its retro roots.

Styles is noted to have taken a liking to the Jackie back in February 2020, after being spotted outside BBC Studios in London with one slung over his shoulder – a true spokesman for the man-bag, if we’ve ever seen one. 

In the skit, Styles and Corden spend most of the video awkwardly laughing together at the thought of the host revealing the events of the time he found the singer “quite late at night at the back of that diner.” The bright lights and laughter of the talk show are abruptly cut off as the video pans to the duo sat together in the green room, making awkward small talk as Styles waits for his car to pick him up. 

Other stars have similarly awkward interactions with Corden. Dakota Johnson, who wears the Dionysus bag, spends her interview talking over Corden in a clumsy exchange of who-gets-to-talk-first; Sienna Miller, also showing off a Jackie 1961 (this time in GG Supreme canvas), arrives to the show late, eventually wandering on to set just as Corden leaves to find her; and Serena Williams, opting for her favourite GG Marmont bag, tells Corden prior to the show that he can “ask [her] anything”, only to spend her entire segment waving to a roaring crowd as she struts across the stage. 

‘The Beloved Show’ is definitely one of the more memorable fashion campaigns of the year, bringing together humour, celebrity power, and Gucci’s typical eccentric quirkiness. Gucci is known for never missing a beat when it comes to its exploration of contemporary pop culture, but this time they unite this vision with staples from the brand’s vault to create a whole new visual language. 

Beloved is a trend-setting prompt that will no doubt see a growth in the popularity handbags – or in Styles’ case, man-bags – as we head out into the world post-lockdown. In any case, we can only wait excitedly for Gucci to roll out the rest of their campaign clips – stay tuned!

The two musicians are some of the biggest and most fashionable stars on the planet right now so it’s no surprise that they have been selected to take part in the fashion house’s first-ever digital fashion and film festival.

Specifically, they are set to feature in Overture of Something That Never Happened, a seven-part film series directed by critically acclaimed, cult filmmaker Gus Van Sant and Gucci’s creative director Alessandro Michele.

Gucci hinted at the Van Sant collaboration on Oct. 28 when it posted a drawing by the director on its Instagram with a caption reading, “Impressions of Rome” along with the hashtag . Gucci also posted a Polaroid of Van Sant and Michele sitting on a sofa together.

Gucci is keeping details of the series under wraps, although has revealed that it will feature actor and artist Silvia Calderonu walking around Rome, bumping into various musicians including Eilish and Styles. Other guests will include Jeremy O. Harris, Arlo Parks and Florence Welch.

Billie and Harry aren’t complete newcomers to the film industry with Harry Styles already starring in major blockbusters like Dunkirk as well as starring in Olivia Wilde’s new film, psychological thriller Don’t Worry Darling, which recently started shooting.

Although Billie has no prior acting experience she did write the theme song for the forthcoming James Bond film ‘No Time To Die’ earlier this year which has gained over 200 million streams on Spotify since its release.

Billie Eilish – No Time To Die

GucciFest, which will broadcast on YouTube Fashion, Weibo, Gucci’s YouTube channel and GucciFest.com, will also include fashion films featuring the work of 15 independent designers: Ahluwalia, Shanel Campbell, Stefan Cooke, Cormio, Charles De Vilmorin, Jordan Luca, Mowalola, Yueqi Qi, Rave Review, Gui Rosa, Rui, Bianca Saunders, Collina Strada, Boramy Viguier and Gareth Wrighton.
