What Is Your Definition Of Fashion?

Hi, Fashionista readers! Where do I even start? At a time when the media landscape is changing daily, with print magazines closing and digital teams shrinking, I know how rare it is to have a new job. If you saw "The Devil Wears Prada 2," you got a peek inside our new reality. But I'm here as Fashionista's new deputy content editor, and there are a ton of exciting things happening. Fashionista has been growing and growing, especially in social and video, and I'm thrilled to be joining such a talented team. But let me back up a bit and tell you a little about myself. I grew up in Bucks County, Pennsylvania (where the Hadids now casually own a farm). I was obsessed with media and magazines from an early age. My favorites were Lucky, Jane, Seventeen, CosmoGirl, Teen Vogue and so many others that sadly no longer exist in print. I also grew up at a time when movies glamorized magazine careers. Films like "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" and "13 Going ...

"Longevity" is the latest buzzword on every wellness brand's lips (and marketing materials). As so-called biohackers use high-tech wearables to optimize their routines with and everyday consumers look for better ways feel healthier, the $6.8 trillion + global wellness industry is entering a new era of longevity-focused solutions. Transdermal vitamin patches are stepping into the spotlight as a result. Of course, transdermal patches — or stickers that gradually diffuse preloaded substances into the user’s bloodstream — are nothing new. You've likely heard of nicotine patches, which were first developed in the 1980s to help people quit smoking, or birth control patches, which have been an approved hormonal contraceptive since 2001. Transdermal drug delivery goes back millennia (think medicinal plants and oils), but the stick-on patches we know today stem from the first iteration approved in 1979 to treat motion sickness. Now, the expanding global transdermal patch ...

"I thought it was a scam," designer Kuai Li recalls of the DM she received from Kylie Jenner's stylist , Mackenzie Grandquist, in 2023. In her defense, most people in her position probably would, too. At the time, Li was a first-year graduate student pursuing an MFA in fashion design, with little experience and limited industry attention. The odds of Jenner's stylist coming across her work? It was too good to be true, she thought. But before deleting the message, Li did some research. "It turned out she was exactly who she said she was," Li says. Grandquist had seen a design of hers and "really wanted to bring some new things to Kylie Jenner." Kuai Li. Photo: Courtesy of Quine Li It only takes a quick glance at Li's work to see why Grandquist was so impressed. The Brooklyn-based designer has established a distinct de...

Occasionally, we use affiliate links on our site. This in no way affects our editorial decision-making. Chloe Kim has been busy . The Olympic gold medalist (she became the youngest woman ever to win Olympic snowboarding gold in 2018) is still competing, having recently become one of the biggest stars in action sports , with eight X Games gold medals and multiple world titles. She's also hit up red carpets, made headlines with her boyfriend, NFL star Myles Garrett, and became Batiste's global brand ambassador. (Yes, that good drugstore dry shampoo.) Somehow, the 26-year-old athlete also finds time to read — and the girl knows ball. "I love romantasy," Kim told Fashionista at the "Batiste Pit Stop" truck at The Grove in Los Angeles. "I know 'A Court of Thorns and Roses' is coming out with the next book. I've been obsessed with 'Fourth Wing.' I've gone through all of the books." She also loves to shop, and she even did her ...

At the Miami Fashion Institute (MFI)'s 2026 Graduate Fashion Show on Thursday evening, student designers got patriotic. After the graduating students unveiled their innovative designs from their final projects, the runway's finale featured a 10-look capsule collection created in honor of America's 250th anniversary. Creative interpretations of the U.S.A.'s signature motifs filled the runway, complete with star-spangled boots, reimagined stripes and plenty of red, white and blue. A select group of students were chosen to show by a panel of industry jurors, including Lourdes Fernandez-Velasco, Maria Buccellati, Naeem Khan and Danny Santiago. Following the runway, six students received design awards: Teresa Chumpitaz (The Ruben and Isabel Toledo Award), Amanda Rodriguez (The Retail Concept Award, presented by Saks Fifth Avenue), Mauro Blanc (The Collaboration Award, presented by Faith Connexion), Laura Prada (The Editorial Award, presented by Brickell Magazine), Milagro...
