A visual exploration of the peculiarities of sisterhood.

There is an unspoken faithfulness that can only be found within a circle of sisters. Trusting each other blindly and knowing exactly how the others feel, what they think and why they need to smile at exactly this moment – that’s what true sisterhood or friendship is all about. With this editorial, photographer Raffaele Cariou captures this special bond through an exploration of the differences and similarities between women who might not share the same genes, but definitely the same spirit and mindset. Unanimously dressed in autumnal greens, browns, checkered print and turtlenecks, all spiced up with little furry details, the girls prove that sticking together works for inside and out.

Céline Robert and Maxime Martin from Jolistudio_ present Déjeuner sur mer (‘Lunch by the sea’, in English), a beautiful fashion film that will make you feel sad and hopeful, relaxed and angry. Taking place at Baie de Somme, in France, the filmmakers guide us through a dramatic chapter: a guy leaves a girl over a message on the voicemail, which makes her rage grow.

This playful fashion editorial transports us to a gender-fluid English countryside.

This playful fashion editorial transports us to a gender-fluid English countryside

A fine-tuned clash of styles dominates photographer Damien Fry’s exclusive fashion editorial for SLEEK. Here, amongst fields of wheat and sunburnt furrows of dead grass, and rainbow streamers rippling in the wind, the masculine and feminine merge. These nostalgia-hued images of an alternative English countryside are a particularly ethereal departure for Fry, who has previously lensed the likes of Miley Cyrus, Carley Rae Jepson and Erin O’Connor. Instead, these fluid and romantic images transport us to another world, recalling old photos of Woodstock perhaps, or your parent’s youthful holiday snaps.

Lacoste nomme Louise Trotter à la direction artistique.

En mai dernier, Lacoste annonçait se séparer de son directeur artistique, Felipe Oliveira Baptista, au terme d’une collaboration qui a duré plus de 8 ans. Après 5 mois d’attente, c’est Louise Trotter qui a été nommée à la tête des collections de la griffe. Un événement à marquer d’une pierre blanche, puisque la créatrice est la première femme à prendre les commandes de la marque au croco. Une nomination qui rentre dans la continuité de la carrière brillante du designer britannique, puisque celle-ci dirigeait le laboratoire créatif de la maison Joseph pendant plus de 9 ans.

Meet the trans and androgynous models who stole the show at Louis Vuitton.

Meet the trans and androgynous models who stole the show at Louis Vuitton

« The casting in the show was very important – it proved to me that being yourself can take you a long way ».

It’s been a long time since Yves Saint Laurent debuted Le Smoking, but Tuesday night’s Louis Vuittonshow proved that a suit still has the power to shock. Marking the end to Paris Fashion Week, designer Nicolas Ghesquière presented a futuristic, self-referential collection that blended geography and time – but perhaps the main talking point was the casting.

Cap sur la plage couture de Chanel

Ce mardi 2 octobre, Le Grand Palais se transformait en une plage paradisiaque, où les tops foulaient une plage de sable fin, sous un ciel bleu, au rythme du roulement des vagues. Maillots rétro, chapeaux de paille revisités ou encore sacs 100% fun… Zoom sur ce qu’il faut retenir de ce défilé événement.

Perpetual Revolution: The Paradox of Yohji Yamamoto.

Susannah Frankel pays testament to the designer’s eternal radicalism – in his words, and those of his legion collaborators and admirers.
Moments of dignity and grace in fashion are few and far between. If burgeoning collections high and low, imagery aimed at not just the insider few but many, and voracious social-media activity are all evidence of a new kind of democracy, the speed at which everything now moves may be counterintuitive to these. The world of Yohji Yamamoto is, by contrast, their very embodiment.

The Science Of Self-Care: Why 111Skin Is A Model Favorite.

For models, their most visible asset can be difficult to maintain. Shellacked with full coverage makeup, thrust into arid, cross Atlantic flight cabins, ridden with stress triggers – just how do the facially blessed keep it all together? The largest organ of the body naturally deserves the best care but with so many elixirs and potions promising youthful, ageless skin many rarely deliver – until 111Skin came along.

Dries Van Noten’s Colorful Addition to Paris Fashion Week.

A Sunny Disposition

In the midst of the uncertain geopolitical climate, Dries Van Noten see the glass half full. For their spring 2019 collection, the Antwerp-based designer’s choice of a crisp white event space played perfectly against the pops of orange, blue, green, and yellow that dominated the collection. Every color felt twice as tonally rich as the garments soared down the runway and, by the time that Van Noten took his bow, it was impossible to miss the sense of optimism he left hanging in the crisp Parisian air.

We LOVE Marine Serre. Nouvelle prodige de la mode.

A 26 ans, cette Corrézienne est déjà la coqueluche des médias. Le New York Times l’appelle « la nouvelle chérie de Paris », le magazine Elle « le nouvel élan de la mode », pour Madame Figaro elle a « l’étoffe d’une grande »…
Boute-en-train à la coupe garçonne, qui s’est hissée très haut en l’espace en très peu de temps.
Formée à La Calade de Marseille puis à La Cambre de Bruxelles, Marine Serre achève tout juste ses études quand elle est repérée par le concept-store parisien Broken Arm, en septembre 2016.

Fashion Week de Paris : Gucci spectaculaire.

Fashion Week de Paris : Gucci spectaculaire

Cette saison, Gucci délaisse Milan pour Paris, et son escale semble toute naturelle. Le show prend place au Palace, club emblématique des nuits parisiennes aujourd’hui reconverti en théâtre. Un lieu festif, et lieu de brassage, deux idées chères à Alessandro Michele. Il nous faudra plusieurs lectures pour tout saisir de l’opulence dépeinte par le maître du baroque moderne. Qui trace cette fois sa route vers l’Ouest, piochant auprès de la culture américaine populaire.
