Zendaya has earned herself the title of a fashion icon over the last years, and being this year’s co-hostess of the Gala (together with Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny, and Chris Hemsworth), she proved there is no coincidence in that. You think one peacock-like, mind-blowing gown is enough? Not for Zendaya. She left us obsessed with two looks by John Galliano, one from Maison Margiela, evoking this year’s iconic Artisanal show in Paris, and the other one from Givenchy Haute Couture SS 1996. So, let’s get to the details shall we? The Maison Margiela look was a blue-green, glowing mesh dress with golden-blue-green fruit and leaves ornaments, and an impressive decorative back. And just look at the other-worldly makeup – do we need to say anything more? Now, the Givenchy look was a mottled grey silk gown with a long trail, complemented by a pink-white-yellow, bouquet-like hat. Hats off!

Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez equals classy, powerful, and sexy femininity. Opting for a richly ornamented, semi-transparent, silver Schiaparelli gown by Daniel Roseberry, she made an incredible impression both with her glimmering outfit and her flawless body shape. The dress was inspired by butterfly wings, whose shiny embroidery with “warm silver pearls, rhinestones, and 2 500 000 silver foul bugles and beads” took over 800 hours to be completed, as Schiaparelli report. How would we sum up the look? Powerful, yet fragile; glowing, yet delicate, even spiderweb-like. The essence of “The Garden of Time.”

Ashley Graham

Ashley Graham, who co-hosted the red carpet livestream with Gwendoline Christie, opted for  a custom Ludovic de Saint Sernin gown, with the brand making a powerful debut at the Gala. Encrusted with Swarovski crystals and presenting LdSS signature cleavage neckline, the black dress with a leather-like corset was most body-hugging and sexy. And the glittering, semi-transparent trail gave the look a truly magical touch. She was glowing, wasn’t she!

Emma Chamberlain

Emma Chamberlain’s, Vogue red carpet special correspondent, garden of time turned out to be a slightly more gothic place. The brown, lace custom gown by Jean Paul Gaultier, together with the smoky eyes and sleek hair, brought the sleeping beauty theme to another level. Meticulously crafted, complemented by a lace trail and briar-like, long gloves, Emma created a mostly ethereal aura around her.

Tyla

_{https://www.instagram.com/p/C6pVy35CKwq/?igsh=MW5xanh6MjM5ajB6bg%3D%3D&img_index=2}

Now, a gown nobody would’ve imagined – one made of sand. Yes, sand. Tyla couldn’t wish for a more iconic debut at the Met Gala, appearing in a form-fitting sand sculpture by Balmain, which beautifully hugged her body – and in addition, made body movements quite challenging; in fact, Tyla was lifted like a true princess to the upper stairs level, as she was unable to climb them herself. But oh boy, it was worth it! Could you think of a more suggestive embodiment of the fragility of beauty and the fleetingness of time than a gown made of originally loose sand? Ah yes, just add an hourglass clutch bag. Well, this is just genius. 

Alia Bhatt

_{https://www.instagram.com/p/C6pfI0zvppH/?igsh=cDJwZmlmemhkbThk&img_index=2}

“An ode to art and eternity” is how Alia Bhatt sums up the main idea behind her fabulous, multi-layered saree by Sabyasachi, which is said to have taken over 1900 hours and 160 men to be created. This piece of hand craftsmanship stuns with its romantic flowery details, fringe, precious stones, and feminine tulle cape. Standing out as the only piece so deeply inspired by tradition and personal background, Bhatt’s garden of time strives at timelessness, delving into Indian fashion heritage.

Dua Lipa

_{https://www.instagram.com/p/C6pYQ5VoLFC/?igsh=MW04c3VieG1jeXZxeA%3D%3D&img_index=6}

Dua Lipa, one of the Gala’s Sleeping Beauties, opted for a custom Marc Jacobs look, inspired by lingerie aesthetics and bringing to mind sexy nightgown fits. The two-part look depicted the melancholy and nostalgic romanticism of the evening’s theme, consisting of a black, long lace intarsia skirt with a trail, tied in the front, and a black-white satin top. What made this sensual look complete was a long feather stole and dotted tulle gloves. It’s indeed a Sleeping Beauty in flesh, reawakening fashion.

Charli XCX

_{https://www.instagram.com/p/C6poQkxOBuh/?igsh=aW9yd250emFlOTR3&img_index=2}

Time for an environmental approach – it’s Charli XCX in Marni’s gown by Francesco Risso, recycled from t-shirts from the 50s, 60s, and 70s. Take a closer look at the dress to appreciate the details – the artistic loops, the linking of the layers of cotton, and the countless staples, which on one hand add an aesthetic – both edgy and glamorous – touch, and on the other one as if communicate the message of a desperate desire to survive, to live on, to fight the passage of time and be recreated and reused – in most environment-friendly manner possible.

FKA Twigs

_{https://www.instagram.com/p/C6qtIRTtHs1/?igsh=ODlmc3l6Yjdzcmk3&img_index=7}

“I felt like a warrior alien water goddess queen boots diva,” comments FKA Twigs about her fabulous look by Stella McCartney. And what else can we say? The craftsmanship is truly impressive – c’mon, just look at all the little diamonds, which go far beyond the design of the top and the shorts, but are also there as part of the makeup and the artistic hairstyle. The super long knitted cape is just as mind-blowing in its meticulous design. And, last but not least, as McCartney stresses – all materials are fully sustainable, “explor[ing] notions of renewal and rebirth, timeless craftsmanship and cutting-edge technologies.”

Janelle Monáe

_{https://www.instagram.com/p/C6pletDx9W5/?igsh=dDBkb3NzcGNudWd1&img_index=3}

_{https://www.instagram.com/p/C6pu2r7tpZP/?igsh=MTlqcDB5djgxM2hxNw%3D%3D&img_index=3}

Let’s stay in the topic of rebirth and sustainable design, shall we? Janelle Monáe’s custom dress by Vera Wang is a perfect embodiment of such an approach to the Gala’s theme, as the cherry of top of the glittering, opalescent, laser-cut sequins gown is a transparent flower on Janelle’s arm – and suffice it to say that this lovely flower is a product of the recycling process of plastic bottles. It’s here that fashion meets rebirth, re-usage, and passage of time – or, actually, finding a way around it. And frankly speaking, that’s what sustainable fashion should be about.

Mona Patel

_{https://www.instagram.com/p/C6p2Boduqsu/?igsh=dXFyOW91NTNtOXRx&img_index=1}

What’s special about Mona Patel’s gown from Iris van Herpen? It’s not just that the dress looks like multiple butterfly wings. It’s not just that the butterfly-shaped corset ends in a long trail of seemingly moving, aerodynamic layers of ivory fabric. It’s not even that some of the layers are so thin that they astonishingly well mimic actual butterfly wings. It’s the literally moving butterflies that Mona’s arms are adorned with. With their golden legs and bodies, the butterflies seem to be dancing around Patel, taking us to a truly magical garden of time.

The post 12 Looks That Glamorously Took Over Met Gala’s 2024 “Garden of Time” appeared first on Voir Fashion.

Lizzo 

Lizzo is an expert at making a fashion statement and she did just that at the awards last night. She wore a gorgeous orange Dolce and Gabbana fit which was an indulgence to look at. The cloaked coat (which resembled more of a duvet cover in shape and size) had beautiful orange 3D flowers worked on to it. She symbolised the beginning of Spring, which was a fresh and long awaited feeling we needed to have.  

Doja Cat 

Doja Cat has had an incredible couple weeks back-to-back of main character fashion moments. After her full-body crystal encrusted Schiaparelli look at Haute Couture week, we had to wonder, how will she continue to meet this ever-rising bar. Her slick Versace look certainly hit the nail on the head. Doja rocked up to the awards in a black vinyl mermaid gown partnered with full-arm matching gloves. The dress was very Morticia Addams as the train was exaggerated and the fabric plays right into the goth-core aesthetic.  

H.E.R 

The peplum returns. We really loved the Bach Mai look which H.E.R wore and can’t imagine how anyone could disagree. The full black was very chic and the sheer and velvet combination complemented each other so well. A lady who loves her shades, she wore round frames and accessorized with layers of silver sparkly necklaces.  

Lourdes Leon 

Creating a similar moment to the red crystals of Doja the other week, Lourdes Leon appeared on the red carpet in a lush Area gown. The gown was also embroidered with sparkly red crystals, coincidence? We will be keeping our eyes open for more of these looks. The floor length dress was a spectacular piece of craft and was very flattering. The striking cross necklace worn was eye-catching and hints towards the punk influences which are coming into 2023 fashion. 

Bebe Rexha 

A pretty vision in pink from Bebe Rexha. The halter-neck dress worn by Rexha was very classic Hollywood and we always appreciate an old Hollywood glamour inspired look. The Moschino design could not have been better showcased than on the ‘I’m Good’ star. Note to self, high-gloves are continuing to pop-up in some of the most spectacular looks of 2023.  

JLO 

JLO does not know the meaning of a fashion flop. Every time she is on the red-carpet, she is wearing incredible outfits which make their way into the fashion history books. The navy Gucci gown was dripped with fringes of crystals and featured a large ruffled sheer train. Nothing is too much sparkle for JLO, so she layered three Bulgari diamond necklaces and threw on a selection of rings.

Camila Cabello

Camila Cabello wore a stunning dress from the PatBo Spring 2023 runway collection. The dress was very elegant but also tapped into multiple major fashion trends of the year. The silver and pearl embroidered aspect of the dress (as well as the jewellery) is something to keep in mind for the up-coming season. The 3D roses are also a design which we are expected to see cropping up in the next few months. We loved the design and think the minimalist simplicity was complimentary and striking.  

Cardi B

 An incredibly high-fashion, almost theatrical look from Cardi B had us on board straight away. A Fantastical piece of design and craft was worn by the star who continues to bring us anthem after anthem. The bright blue cut-out gown was part of the Gaurva Gupta Haute Couture collection which showcased at the Spring 2023 fashion week. Staying away from over-powering the look with jewellery, she opted for no necklace, but diamond earrings and a three-finger ring.  

Beyoncé 

The Queen B broke history at the Grammy awards last night as she took home her 32^nd win. The silver and gold Gucci dress was made for a star and she obviously pulled it off beautifully. The record-breaker looked phenomenal in the futuristic reflective mini-dress. We were obsessed with the accompanying black leather gloves which pulled the whole look together seamlessly.  

Anitta

This look was one we couldn’t sleep on. Striking would have been an understatement as the black leather and lace gown was a piece of master craft. The strapless vintage Versace number hugged Anitta’s figure until it flared out into an incredibly artistic train. The train featured layer after layer of ruffle which led the eye through a maze of fabric. Another gown with the Morticia aesthetic, the Versace gown is right on the goth core trend. Anitta embellished with some stunning silver jewellery which complimented the look.

Muni Long

Muni Long took home the award for ‘Best R&B Performance of The Year’ and we are here praising her for her look as well as her win. The sheer gown resembled a pink sky at sunrise. The airy and ruffled effect of the train of the dress was day-dream worthy. Super gorgeous and feminine.  

Megan Fox 

The slim-fitted white gown which Megan Fox wore was a gorgeous choice for the model. The corseted bodice of the dress was fully embroidered with gems and jewels (which obviously matched with MGK’s look for the evening). The dress was divinely feminine and visually eye-catching as it caught the light and glistened. No surprise that it was a Zuhair Murad design.

Paris Hilton

Last night, Paris Hilton gave us a look to remember. The sparkly Celine dress gorgeously dripped down Paris and we loved the cut of the dress. Cut-outs featured in the back and front of the dress (very 2023 if we may say so) and the super fine straps exaggerated the sense of delicacy the gown possessed. Paris also chose to avoid heavy, overpowering jewellery for this look to keep it as minimalist as possible.

The post The Gowns Which Need Their Own Grammys appeared first on Voir Fashion.

From tracksuits to Knee-high boots, Jlo was no stranger to all the beloved styles of the early 2000s. We love reflecting on these gorgeous y2k looks and thought we would share them with you to honour Lopez’s great achievement. 

Unreleased images shot by Tony Duran show us the hype of the 2000s style. Head-to-toe millennial pink, Lopez was always wearing peak 2000s styles which gave her status as not only a superstar but a fashion icon. 

Straight from the 2003-time capsule, will this look ever go out of fashion? A round of applause for Jenny from the block, please. This look confirms what we all thought we knew; Jenifer Lopez is the ultimate sassy and sexy icon. 

Jlo loved her headscarves, floppy hats, berets, and beanies. Special shout out to her for her use of hats and headwear which is still celebrated 20 years on. From baby pink knitted berets to chainmail headscarves, we are still waiting to see if there is anything she can’t pull off. 

The iconic image of Jlo in fur. This is a look that should be kept safe for generations to come to gaze upon lovingly. Her aviator glasses and fur combination screams confidence and empowerment. Lopez has always dressed in a female-empowering style, and we thank her for her services.

MTV’s Total Request Live in 2001 saw Jennifer Lopez grace the stage in classic y2k low-rise leather trousers. I’m sure spectators will still remember her performance as well as her outfit. We also adore the cropped American Football Jersey Lopez is wearing, and of course, her classic hoop earrings. 

At the peak of Juicy Couture and fashionable athleisure, Jennifer Lopez was the poster girl for matching low-rise tracksuits. The trend of matching tracksuits remains a nostalgic moment of the early 2000s and we can certainly give Lopez some credit for the craze. 

Reflecting upon these images tells us Jlo has really managed to pull off everything she has worn. From hyper-feminine styles to hyper-sexy fits, the 2000s saw her style versatility. Although she may have always been adaptable with her style, they all have something in common; they remain iconic and memorable. 

Excitingly, along with her inviting us to reminisce on past looks, she has also released This Is Me… Then on vinyl for the first time ever which is available now! One thing we are sure of is our love for Jlo- does not cost a thing.

Pairing her boxy blazer with a Jacquemus bralette adds a sweet, feminine touch to the power suit. Beige does not have to boring – from JLO’s look, we can learn to change up a silhouette, stick to a colour palette, and pair browns with gold jewellery for an instantly chic outfit.

The post How To Recreate The Looks Your Instagram Favourites Have Been Wearing This Week appeared first on Voir Fashion.

Warm Blonde – The Honey Spectrum

It may be time to ditch the purple shampoo and say goodbye to that ongoing battle you’ve been having with your natural warmth for so long. It’s a new season and there is a new trend taking over: warm blonde. Although the word “honey” may send shivers down your spine—especially for all the ash loving, lavender hued, anti-warm blondes out there—but it’s time to rethink and re-educate orselves in blonde.

The Difference Between Yellow and Gold

First thing first, there’s a huge difference between yellow and blonde. “Yellow” is unintentional and is usually a result of a colour not lifting, or lightning, to the level you desire. “Golden” blonde is even, expensive looking and glossy. Warm colours reflect more light, so ashy blondes can often have a dull and lifeless finish with very little gloss. Warm blondes promote shine, reflect light and actually appear lighter than cool blondes.

Maintenance

Unfortunately for lilac-loving blondes, hair is naturally warm. With hair always having a warm undertone it’s going to support a warm blonde a lot easier. This results in your desired shade having a lot less fade, fewer trips to the salon and in return, less time and money maintaining the shade. The fight with your hair can finally end. Hurray!

The Honey Spectrum

Don’t be alarmed. If you’re not use to going for a honey blonde, that’s ok. It’s doesn’t have to be as extreme as you’d think. Honestly, most healthy blonde colours people admire are a warmer shade (due to the light reflection). Warmth can be anything from a soft baby-blonde all the way to a rich copper-blonde, and everything in between. A subtle honey shade is the least dramatic, and simply results in a bright and even blonde.

Honey to Caramel

Deepening your root will also give your blonde a custom finish and a more natural result. A darker root will also result the illusion of you ends being even blonder. Taking this plunge gives you more options when deciding on your dream shade. To compliment this look, caramel and copper blondes work perfectly. Caramel blonde exudes luxury, richness and romance.

Introducing Blonde

Experimenting with a warmer shade of blonde is easiest if you have an even brown and are looking to introduce some new levels of tone. It’s can be done subtly and allows some room to adapt to the new lightness as you build the colour with each application. A soft honey blonde works best on hair that’s already on a fairly bright level to begin with. A simple toner can achieve this, usually.

Blondes really can have more fun—if they step outside the box from time to time. There’s a whole spectrum of blonde out there to discover and experiment with; don’t be a slave to the purple shampoo.

The post Honey Is the New Blonde: The Warm Golden Tones You Need This Autumn/Winter appeared first on Voir Fashion.

There is a glowing light at the end of the bleak tunnel that is 2020. January 1st is kicking off 2021 with a bright start, as JLo confirms her new cosmetics line, JLo Beauty. The 51-year-old mogul has been dropping hints on her instagram over the past three months, alluding to a new project she has been working on.

A selfie captioned: “Bronze Glow. JLo Beauty Coming Soon”, confirmed that she would be dropping—a presumably bronzed, glowing and rich-toned—makeup line. “This isn’t just a passion project, it’s a 30-year dream. I can’t wait to share my skincare secrets with you!!”, stated the icon on instagram, accompanied by a video of Lopez posing on a beach with glistening, honey-like skin.

JLo is no stranger to the beauty industry, and with her original perfume franchise—an absolute staple for every gal in the 00’s—estimated at being worth over $2 billion, we have high expectations for this new line (and all the faith in the world).

The popstar revealed way back in 2018 that she will be coming out with a cosmetics line, but wanted to take her time and not rush the process, stating, “I’ve been working on it for a long time because I don’t want to put just anything out”.

People have been taking to social media to express their excitement for the coming beauty line and the influx of positivity is undeniable. It’s no surprise that people are anticipating this launch; the pop sensation arguably has become known for her warm and shimmering complexion just as much as she has for her acting and singing achievements.

JLo Beauty drops officially January 1st ; however, the official Instagram account of the beauty brand (@jlobeauty) has confirmed that “early access” will be available from December 8th, 2020.

Around the corner, in search of love and the loss of it, Jlo joins with Maluma to bring us ‘Pa Ti + Lonely’, a music short film full of sensuality and Latin power.

This girl boss shows us her power and class behind a letter about her exclusive articles that don’t compare in value to her love for him. A romantic lyric quoting her love story in places like her beloved Puerto Rico, under green and urban landscapes in New York City. For his part, Maluma declares his love in his sensual voice and unmistakable for this Latin bomb that has him crazy and for whom he confuses love with work.

In her first single of this year, Jlo brings us a story about billionaire investigating Executive Jlo, and as her guard Maluma becomes entangled in a love story wherein the end, Maluma betrays her as an undercover FBI agent and tries to bring to light her struggles with the law, condemned by her romance. This new music video clip is part of the soundtrack of his upcoming movie Marry Me, which premiered next san Valentin, February 12, 2021.

Under the FBI interception and a more moved Latino rhythm in ‘Pa Ti’ , for an underground style under hip hop rhythm in ‘Lonely’, these two fills the screen with sensuality.

Jennifer Lopez, Maluma – Pa Ti (Official Video)

Jlo presents herself with her unparalleled beauty, under diamonds and large rocks with off the shoulder Self Portrait swimsuit and continually surprises us with sexy ensembles such as his LaQuan Smith catsuit, furry Sally LaPoibte and Fendi coats and fashion outfits such as the David Kloma Blazer dress with diamonds, under the direction of her personal stylists of Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn.

Of course, Maluma doesn’t fall behind in love with his Colombian performance and streetwear style, with summer touches, vintage glasses and in the end, formalwear-clad that declares his style and versatility.

The video has more than 24.4m views and under the activity of Jlo and the support of stars of the Tik Tok platform as Charli D’ Amelio, their challenge has reached 1.2bn views.

Whether between Rolls Royce, sprawling mansions, luxury gardens, an office full of talented dancers, or in prison, this couple has managed to climb the temperature in the early English winter.

Come December, it is impossible to ignore holiday spirit lurking in every turn. Christmas decorations are simply everywhere, munching chocolate advent calendars is well underway, and of course – glorious Black Friday sale items have been acquired. Just in case you missed any of these seasonal markers, a quick look at any given boutique window display will reveal to its spectator a whirlwind of sparkly garments and sequins as far as the eye can see, thus officially declaring party season is upon us.

As I window-shop online, diligently and selectively creating perfect wishlists (yes, plural), I recalled a recent conversation I had with a friend who was looking for outfit ideas for her upcoming 80’s theme office Christmas party. Always ready, I whipped out my phone to suggest some of the bold shoulder, metallic mini dresses I fantasized about buying unironically and with no specific theme in mind. While she did love the dresses, she said she is uninterested in investing in an outfit she most likely will only wind up wearing once.

With Gossip Girl’s Blair Waldorf as my forever , I couldn’t really relate to what she was saying. While I agree that wearing the same bold statement pieces daily might cause them to lose their wow factor, I strongly believe that an interesting outfit is necessarily assembled from intriguing combinations of alleged contradictions. To me, mismatching textures and prints often enhance one another, and create unique looks, rather than appear as odd.

Chunky, woolly, oversized sweaters casually draping over dainty satin midi skirts; Over-the-top high heels combined with plain jeans or even track pants and socks; Or a classic “Jeans and a Nice Top” situation, are just a few serving suggestions of how to make use of basic wardrobe staples we all own, while making the most of whatever party fashion piece you decide to splurge on. Mixing “dressy” attire with “casual” items, is firstly – a great way to repurpose the fancy side of your closet, and secondly – an easy trick to instantly and effortlessly elevate your look.

Reimagining your closet with this mindset might take some getting used to, and you might require some trial and error until you manage to find combinations that feel like “you”. Luckily, social media offers us an inexhaustible fountain of creative aesthetic ideas – perhaps all you need is a little .

The post ‘Tis the Party Season: Office Christmas Party appeared first on Voir Fashion.

Set to hit theatres today, Hustlers is one of the most talked-about movies of 2019. It is catching attention for its all-female cast with big names such as Jennifer Lopez, Cardi B and Lizzo, as well as its controversial context: working in a strip club. Loosely based on the New York Magazine article ‘The Hustlers at Scores’ by Jessica Prissier, the film follows a group of strippers who decide to scam unlawful Wall Street clients. Judging from the trailer and the storyline, the movie provides an interesting approach to feminism.

There is female empowerment in how these characters reclaim their sexuality when pole dancing—and that’s exactly how they successfully exploit the clients. This idea comes directly from Pressier’s article which describes Roselyn Keo’s experience of being mistreated by her clients; from the married men coming to cheat on their wives, to the belittling ones who groped or judged her for stripping: “did your father abuse you?” Her case was far from being an exception, and that’s why Hustlers is so important for giving a voice to strip club employees; the stigma around stripping and pole dancing needs to be addressed and changed.

It is not just for stripping and pole dancing either, but for any form of sexual expression that women continue to be shamed and criticised. Cardi B herself has faced backlash— as many other female celebrities have—for exposing her body and twerking in music videos. The internet argues that this behaviour only further incites men to objectify women and sexualise their bodies, but as Cardi B’s clapped back, this mentality perpetuates rape culture. Rape culture designates the normalising of sexual assault and abuse and is an issue that feminism seeks to destroy. Because if a woman chooses to be sexual, it does not entitle men to touch her.

For this reason, Hustlers denies male viewers the pleasure of watching sexualised female bodies, which they usually obtain through a concept known as the male gaze. Rather common in art, such as cinema, the male gaze is the depiction of women for the male audience, through a masculine point of view. When J-Lo’s character Ramona is pole dancing; she appears sexy and powerful because she is doing what she wants with her own body. With pole dancing, the women in the movie can use their sexual side to trap the very men that shame them for showing it.

That is not to say that the women’s revenge is devoid of any complication. To call the strippers’ collective crime an act of feminism would be to ignore the problematic nature of their drugging of men. Despite Hustlers’ spot-on representation of female empowerment through women of all backgrounds, races, sizes and gender identities, the comical and light-hearted tone could lead us to believe that the movie misses crucial aspects to its portrayal of life as a stripper. Working in a strip club entails enduring invasive comments and inappropriate behaviour from clients which, as Roselyn’s story exemplifies, can lead one to grow dangerously distrustful and vengeful.

Perhaps then, Hustlers is more feminist in the moral of the story rather than in the story itself. Because while the female characters well deserve their revenge, the means do not justify the ends, and how take advantage of men is undeniably dubious. On the surface, however, the movie provides a powerful and inspiring image of a diverse group of women working together to take down—as represented by the Wall Street clients—the patriarchy.
