Everything Met Ball, Orthodox Jewish Women Get Fashionable, and Fashion Insiders Share Their Moms’ Best Beauty Tips

by

The Met Ball Goes (Mostly) Punk: The hair, the makeup, the gowns, and the juicy gossip—we had this year’s Met Gala covered. (Including how Godmother of Punk, Vivienne Westwood, got snubbed.) The large crowd means there were lots of opportunities for photobombs on the red carpet. Finally, we voted for our best dressed and rated how “punk” the looks were. We even gathered all the best Instagrams and Vines of the night.

And Then Kame Kim Kardashian: The reality TV star arrived on the Met Ball red carpet in a custom floral Givenchy dress designed by Riccardo Tisci that received, um, mixed reviews. Even Robin Williams (aka Mrs.Doubtfire) weighed in, with perhaps the best tweet of the day. Tisci came to the defense of Kim and his dress, but that wasn’t enough to stop her getting unceremoniously cropped out of Vogue‘s Met Gala best-dressed slideshow.

Beauty Tips We Learned from Our Moms
Fashion Insiders Tell All

Beauty Tips We Learned from Our Moms

by

To celebrate Mother’s Day (which is this Sunday, so don’t forget to call your mom!), we’ve asked tons of people in the fashion and beauty industries for the most memorable beauty tip their moms ever gave them. Our moms are our first teachers after all. While we got some traditional mom-isms like, “Always wash your face!” we got plenty of unique bits of wisdom, too. (There are also a disproportionate amount of women who learned to worship at the altar of Clinique’s Three-Step System thanks to their moms.)

Click through to see what Jerry Hall, Georgia May Jagger, Pat Cleveland, Doutzen Kroes, Aerin Lauder and tons more learned from their moms.

Michael Kors Owns the Internet, Deborah Needleman Apologizes for T‘s Lack of Diversity, and Models’ Salaries Exposed

by

Ladies love (cool) Michael Kors. The mega-designer and much-missed Project Runway judge beat out Marc Jacobs, Ralph Lauren, and Tory Burch as the most sought-after American fashion brand on the Internet. {WWD}

How much cheddar do models actually make? And no–we aren’t talking Gisele. Hard facts this way… {Refinery29}

Ok, now we are talking Gisele: Watch the supermodel mama look gorgeous and glowy as ever in this teaser for her new Chanel beauty campaign. {Grazia}

T Magazine’s new editor Deborah Needleman says she’ll try to include more people of color in future issues (there was one in her first), but what the hey? Good journalism is more important than ethnicities anyway! {NY Times}

Listen to This: Cara Delevingne Can Actually Sing

by

There’s no doubt as to who the model of the season is.

Cara Delevingne, in all her goofy-faced glory, has walked damn near every major runway in New York and London, landed her first Vogue UK cover, and commands a massive audience on social media (over 470,000 followers on Twitter, 747,000 on Instagram). And while we know she can walk, today we learned something new about the Brit beauty: She can also sing!

by

It’s Thanksgiving! The one day a year the fashion world puts aside its fad diets and smizes in favor of that extra slice of pumpkin pie and some awkward yet so-necessary family photos. To keep things light on this day of heavy feasting, we asked some of our favorite people in the industry what fashion things (what else?) they’re thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
