If you were a statistician tracking the growth of the size-inclusive fashion market, you could point to a number of data points that say that shopping as a plus-size person is easier and more accessible than it was even a decade ago. On the surface, thats true: In the last 10 years, shoppers have seen an exponential improvement when it comes to retailers offering a size 16 and up and more affordable prices, particularly when it comes to fast fashion. (There are more niche options from smaller, independent brands than ever before, too -- eveningwear , workwear , luxury , athleisure .) Weve come a long way, sure, but, while there are plenty of plus-size fast-fashion brands available today, it is much harder to find sustainable size-inclusive labels. There is plenty of information out there that points to just how harmful fast fashion can be , both for the garment wo...

For the most part, we actually enjoy buying gifts . As professional shoppers, we delight in finding that one trinket thats going to surprise our loved ones, but there are always outliers in this shopping scenario -- the people that leave us hemming, hawing, and endlessly scrolling to find the just-right thing that will satisfy their highly-exacting tastes. The kind-of-difficult ones. You know the type: if youre going to get this person a sweater, you cant get them just any sweater; it has to be ethically sourced, top-of-the-line cashmere . A simple glassware set just wont do, either; it has to be design snob-approved . Well: look no further, harried shopper. Because when it comes to those hard-to-please folks in your life, weve got you (and them) covered. Ahead, find 30 gifts for difficult people that will actually pass muster with your pickiest pals.

I dont have to do nothin but stay Black and die. This oft-repeated phrase in Black communities of a certain generation tells a story of people who have work in their blood. Black people have always been working. Weve always been creators: of life, of magical somethings out of bleak nothings, of recipes that persist for generations in hushed reverence, and of art that has delighted, baffled, and radicalized us. When the news that revered designer and Louis Vuitton artistic director Virgil Abloh , 41, passed away from cancer on November 28 hit social media, once again, we mourned in collective shock. It was suddenly made painfully clear how young 41 really is. Then came the realization that none of us knew Abloh was sick. I was instantly reminded of Chadwick Boseman , who passed away last year at just 43 years old from another cancer diagnosis kept private. The similaritie...

After a year-long blur of evolving restrictions coated in copious amounts of hand sanitizer and doom scrolling, one of our main takeaways from 2021 is that theres only so much we can do to prepare for the ups and downs of lifes path. But when it comes to climbing those proverbial mountains, fashion people know that you can at least dress the part -- which explains why the hiking boot trend has officially reached its peak. Nature looked better than ever over the course of the lockdown, and a ripple effect across wardrobes and social media feeds was quick to follow. First, the nap dress hit the style scene in 2020 in all its tiered and frothy goodness, made for afternoon snoozing and forest frolicking alike. Then, as temperatures dropped with the dawn of a new year on the horizon, what became known as cottagecore morphed into cabincore , another comfort-oriented aesth...

Barrier-breaking designer . Genre-bending artist . Visionary . These are some of the ways people have described Virgil Abloh after it was announced that the 41-year-old creative died on Sunday following a private two-year battle with cancer. Over the last decade, the prolific designer -- the founder of streetwear label Off-White and Louis Vuittons mens artistic designer -- produced no shortage of memorable designs, ranging from Off-Whites Little Black Dress (that was displayed at the Costume Institute 2020 About Time exhibit) to sought-after collaborations with everyone from artist Takashi Murakami to brand giants like Ikea , Evian, and Nike . But unlike most other designers that have reached similarly dizzying levels of cultural success, Abloh always viewed his place in fashion as closer to the earth. Maybe because, regardless of the numerous accolades, he never st...
