Let them eat urinal cake!

Time to go to Paris, y’all. Two weeks and some change has passed since Beyoncé and her husband surprised-dropped their long-rumored collaborative album Everything Is Love, and (I’m calling it right now) one of the greatest music videos of the past decade for the single “APESHIT.”

Haute Couture Fashion Week—it’s happening! Most of it—save for Herr Lagerfeld’s clothes for a merry widow and Alexandre Vauthier’s Grace Jones homage—is boring. Turn your attention, please, to Jean Paul Gaulthier, who got Coco Rocha BACK on the runway!!, and showed garments for the glamorous space queen—a grown-up…

Couture shows are going down in Paree right now and so far, with a couple of exceptions—Iris!!! The Only Good Designer—they’re mostly a snooze of finery and chiffon (albeit, you know, couture-crafted). Alexandre Vauthier, though, the man who dresses the most interesting people on the red carpet, has gone further into…

Karl’s latest haute couture collection—shown today in Paris to the likes of Ibeyi, Sofia Coppola, Isabelle Huppert, and Marion Cotillard—is eye candy for gleeful widows, full of fluffy tulle skirts beneath signature tweed jackets and spritely mourning veils capped with a melange of florals. Some looks were reminiscent…

Victor Hugo’s sprawling novel Les Misérables is getting another adaptation—this time not as a big-budget musical, but rather a BBC miniseries that will broaden my costume drama choices because honestly, I can only watch so much Bleak House and don’t even get me started on the number of times I’ve seen North and South.

The famous House of Whiskey shop in Paris was robbed this past weekend when two thieves broke in and stole $749,000 worth of whiskey.

In Paris, American designer Thom Browne presented a cirque du freak that was breathtakingly beautiful and utterly melancholy. While Browne always toys with proportions and notions of outsiderism, this collection celebrated the beauty and alienation of sticking out; “Part of Your World” from The Little fucking Mermaid,…

In a welcome break from the fashion month norm, Kenzo, which was founded by Japanese designer Kenzo Takada and is now helmed by Opening Ceremony founders Humberto Leon and Carol Lim, presented its Paris runway show as an intermission within a traditional Japanese Kagura dance performance.

The extremely cool French designer Simon Porte Jacquemus toned down the wacky design elements of his namesake label to create a faintingly chic collection inspired by, and devoted to, his mother, who died when he was young.

Parisian police say thieves boosted 300-plus bottles of vintage wine—we’re talking €250,000 worth of the stuff—from a private apartment cellar via the god damn catacombs.

I never knew I needed a video of Céline Dion galloping around Paris in an array of elaborate headpieces, but here we are, and I am grateful.

Colette, the über-cool Parisian concept shop where you could always pick up your favorite Margiela perfume and some weird overpriced Japanese toy, is closing after 20 years.

New York Times fashion critic Guy Trebay has covered a very important topic from the trenches of the Paris Men’s Fashion Week: how the hell do men do their laundry during all the hustle and bustle?

Paris will not have “sexist and discriminatory” ads cluttering up its outdoor space, thank you very much.

Prince William has presumably been released from the royal doghouse following his bout of ill-advised dad dancing, and now, he and Kate Middleton are enjoying a two-day trip to Paris. What have they been up to? Let’s find out!

Monday in Paris, Rihanna’s Fenty x Puma line paraded under the moniker “F.U.”—Fenty University—and its attitude was purely that: rugby separates in ragamuffin cuts that were meant to recall the grunge-era kids who got sent to the “alternative” high school for being teen pregnant or smoking too much weed. (Maybe that…

The skewed headgear presented at Ann Demeulemeester in Paris today were more than the sum of their parts, which evoked birds in a flurry, ghosts in mid-haunt, brides interrupted, the dark underbelly of paintings by Vermeer. Paired with loose, bold separates in silk and leather, emphasized with above-the-elbow gloves,…

I spent about 36 seconds of the Women’s March over the weekend thinking about Karl Lagerfeld’s weak attempt at staging a feminist fashion march on his Spring 2015 runway, and wondered if he was watching, participating, or gave a fuck. And so, despite the dazzling handiwork in his couture show for Spring 2017, which…

The French TV network M6 has released the first security footage of the suspects in Kim Kardashian’s October 2 robbery in Paris. The black and white footage shows five people—two on bikes, and one on foot—heading down a street near Kim’s hotel at 2:19 in the morning.
