You don’t have to be Serena Williams to look like a sporty superstar. This spring’s cool athleisure looks are all about scoring points off the court; think sport-meets-street with a dash of Rihanna. The 29-year-old mega pop star even has her own line, Fenty x Puma, featuring athletic-inspired pieces, like oversized hoodies and anoraks, with […]

The birth and naming of Saint West has barely taken the pressure of the public eye off of Kylie Jenner since her controversial Interview Magazine cover hit the stands. In the spread, Jenner is dressed as a sort of sex doll in various constricting, shiny leather garments, her arms eerily stiff and arranged at robotic-like […]

It’s no secret that black is fashion’s fallback shade. Instantly slimming and eternally chic, Paris’ front row remains filled with fail-safe dark outfits (despite the sunny forecast, editors are in head-to-toe leather looks). Even baby North West was spotted bouncing on mom Kim’s lap in Balenciaga‘s front row with a tiny black Yeezus tee and leather […]

From the food aisles to a galaxy far, far away, Fall 2014’s fashion narrative is just as varied as the many women who’ll likely fall for its manifold charms.

Call it the Lorde effect (or blame it fashion’s ever-growing obsession with Game of Thrones), but designers across all four major fashion cities seemed to fall under the dark spell of moody heroines. At Dolce & Gabbana, dresses were made to scrape that forest floor. At Valentino, capes shrouded the wicked and at Rodarte and Preen, Star Wars prints were made for the modern day Princess Leia.

And while normcore may have mounted last season’s defence to street style’s increasing zaniness, Fall fashion 2014 is rife with ways to make statements. Flashbulbs will no doubt capture this season’s array of larger than life outerwear, from the utilitarian parkas on Alexander Wang’s robotic runway to Burberry’s painterly blanket coats. Meanwhile, fur was back with a brightly hued vengeance, ombréd at both Tom Ford and Marc Jacobs, and in Crayola checks at Altuzarra. At Lanvin and Marni, fur was layered in wrap form over everything from short suits to sweatshirts.

This season’s accessories are especially light-hearted, with everything from a McDonalds Happy Meal to a carton of milk inspiring fall fashion 2014’s bags at Moschino and Chanel respectively. There were fur muffs at Tory Burch, crystal-incrusted snoods at Alexander McQueen and knee-highs á la Vivian Ward at Versace and sneakers once again staking their claim at Chanel.

If there ever were a time to pick your poison, it would be now.

Standing in the rain outside of the Balenciaga show this morning, all I wish I’d worn was a classic trench coat, instead of the soggy denim topper I’d packed instead. It got me thinking about ultimate classics and how certain pieces, beyond the white shirt and the little black dress, have entered that coveted club. While fashion’s frenetic cycle churns out new trends at a breakneck speed, today’s roster of Fall 2014 shows during Paris Fashion Week proved there are pieces that are here to stay and new classics that have become staples to invest in, reappearing season after season.

Which looks were the timeless winners among the hundreds of runway exits today? These are my picks for the 4 new classics that are must-haves for Fall 2014 and beyond:

With the end of fashion week in Toronto marking the close of Spring 2014 show season, it’s time we looked back at all the trends that emerged. As much as the runway sets the pace for what’s to come for the top Spring 2014 trends, the streets play a major role as show-going trendsetters give us the relatable breakdown of how to wear what’s hot next season. Prints take two spots on our top Spring 2014 trends list through those with a painterly quality and those influenced by international cultures. At Hérmes, Rousseau-inspired water lily florals were printed on luxurious fabrics while at Diane Von Furstenberg, dresses and skirts depicting an African wilderness roared. As for fashionable time travel, prepare to keep reminiscing about the youthful 1990s, which haven’t ceased to get reincarnated season after season. Designers like Rodarte, Balmain and Jason Wu have reinvented the decade’s essentials yet again. To help with your daydreaming of long sunny spring days we’ve compiled the ultimate gallery of top Spring 2014 trends as dictated by the runways and our favourite street style stars in New York, London, Milan, Paris and Toronto! Feel free to let this be your guide to budgeting and creating closet space for next season’s must have pieces.

It doesn’t take being a Twihard to be a fan of Kristen Stewart’s style. Since starring in her breakout role as Bella Swan in the first Twilight installment back in 2008, Stewart has gone from awkward late teen to high fashion mainstay. Known for her decidedly anti-glam approach, the actress has been known to turn […]

This week in Kristen Stewart land, it’s been all about skin. That and a little thing called Twilight Breaking Dawn: Part Two. Stewart launched her globetrotting premiere tour in a sheerer than sheer Zuhair Murad gown which left little to the imagination, only to follow it up with another the next day in London. Today, she ended the whirlwind in another bang: a glimmering Elie Saab column dress with a leg slit that could rival only Angelina Jolie’s.

Allowing her to show off a pair of lace up Christian Louboutin heels, the custom Elie Saab dress was matched with an equally bold beauty look, with Kristen Stewart wearing a dark smoky eye with a natural lip colour and a high messy ponytail.

We’re going to take a small pause to acknowledge the fact that Robert Pattinson seems to have a case of frosted tips straight out of 1999. Other than his potentially questionable hair, his grey suit and black tie is the perfect note to end on at the Berlin premiere. Taylor Lautner even returned from his recent overly casual looks in an all black suit. If Kristen Stewart hadn’t selected such stunning looks throughout the tour, the guys could have stolen the show.

If this week were the record, we’d be sure that Kristen Stewart could do no wrong on the red carpet. Her last two appearances at the Twilight Breaking Dawn: Part Two premieres in Los Angeles and London, were a time to show off skin in lacy Zuhair Murad numbers. And yesterday in Madrid, she’s done it again. Beginning with a slightly more covered up look at the photo call early in the day, she returned to skin flaunting by nightfall.

Yesterday morning, instead of showing skin, the young Hollywood starlet wore an illusion dress from London designer, Julien Macdonald. The two-tone navy and white dress has intricate beading along the neckline that gives the appearance of wearing a bib necklace and also of having the perfect hourglass body shape. She kept the look simple with a strappy pair of Jerome Rousseau sandals and a bent nail bracelet. Keeping with the beauty regime of yesterday’s red carpet appearance, she kept her hair in natural messy curls and an almost makeup-less face.

Fashion’s favourite season is finally here and we’ve got the chock-a-block trend report to prove it, complete with 138 of the top looks that take you from Fall’s dark fantasies into Winter’s light and feminine pastels. Go on, get clicking!

Paris feels like the Amazing Race, what with a crammed show schedule, road detours, and invitations that go poof in the night. But what’s Paris without a little drama, oui?

The important thing is that strong themes are already emerging. One is the trend of opulence everyday—like a shimmery brocade skirt with a wool crewneck sweater, as we saw at Marco Zanini’s collection for Rochas. The same idea surfaced at Barbara Bui where a gold foil wrap was worn with navy pants. Don’t save your precious items for special occasions, designers seem to be saying. It’s the fashion equivalent of using your good silver with your everyday china. Do try this one at home.
