Her cousin is Nicolas Cage. She’s essentially the nepo baby to end all […]

Earlier this month, Chanel unveiled the campaign images for its 2020 Métiers d’Art collection. The collection itself was monumental for the house, as it was the first Métiers d’Art range to be designed solely by creative director Virginie Viard following the passing of Karl Lagerfeld in February of last year. Now, FASHION is pleased to […]

“I had a divine shoe today,” says legendary footwear designer Manolo Blahnik, talking about his work as if it were a spectacular meal.

Just when you thought Karl Lagerfeld couldn’t top his Chanel sets anymore (we’re still thinking about the Fall 2017 life-size rocket), the Kaiser upped the ante and brought the world’s most-admired monument into the Grand Palais. That’s correct. For the Chanel Haute Couture Fall 2017 show, Lagerfeld installed a 38-metre high reproduction of the Eiffel […]

Their friendship bracelets are probably gold plate instead of hemp, and their clothing swaps likely involve pieces of couture instead of ratty walk-of-shame tees, but at their core, we think fashion BFFs are a lot like us. After all, it’s no coincidence that fashionable friends seem to flock together—good style begets good style, right? Whether […]

When they’re on, they’re really on. Gap has just released a series of holiday films directed by Sofia Coppola and as you may have already guessed, they are brilliant. Each of the four shorts tells a story of an oddball family member, proclaiming, “You don’t have to get them to give them Gap.” In other […]

When Marc Jacobs and Sofia Coppola take the stage at the launch for his fragrance Daisy Dream (from $85, Hudson’s Bay) at New York’s Dia Center for the Arts, you want to study them the way a zoologist watches animals in their natural habitat. You’re compelled to scrutinize not only their behaviour but what they’re wearing—she’s in slim, cropped black pants, a coral sweater (both by the designer himself) and black ballet flats, while he’s in a suit paired with dingy Adidas Stan Smith sneakers. Being in such close proximity makes the impenetrable sphere of cool that surrounds them all the more apparent; you fantasize about what their conversations must be about, what clothes he designs with her in mind and whether they share current iPod playlists.

They’ve been friends since the early ’90s, and Jacobs has enlisted Coppola over the years for various projects, from modelling in the ad for his very first fragrance to advising on shoes and bags for Louis Vuitton. He tapped her once again for directorial duties on the TV commercial for Daisy Dream, and it sounds like it was an effortless task. “We have similar tastes in music and photography, so I felt like I knew how to approach it,” says Coppola. “How Marc sees women is something I identify with.” As a feature film director, she embraced the opportunity to not have to deal with dialogue. “I think in the way that a fragrance is sort of abstract, I liked not having to tell a story, but more a mood or an atmosphere.”

The ad campaign for Marc Jacobs’ Daisy Dream, the designer’s latest fragrance, has been released and luckily for, well, everyone, it’s directed by the one and only Sofia Coppola. The two longtime friends and collaborators are at it again, because the short clip is classic Marc and Sofia. It’s no secret that the critically acclaimed director knows how to work the lens, and this time she’s done it in a daisy-filled haze.

The amfAR gala, largely considered a social highpoint of the Cannes Film Festival, consisted of a Red themed, Marilyn Monroe inspired fashion show extravaganza! The term “extravaganza” may seem a bit over the top, but so is this event.

The show, now in it’s eleventh year, featured one-of-a-kind pieces from 35 of the top fashion houses (Alexander McQueen, Chanel, Tom Ford, Givenchy just to name a few) with nearly 40 models working the runway in the one-off couture gowns. The dresses are subsequently auctioned off to raise money for AIDS research. Last year the gowns raised a whopping $2 million dollars.
