It's the weekend, baby!
Good lord, what a week. What a month, in fact.
As Paris Fashion Week finally drew to a close, so did a pretty wild four weeks as a whole. Following a plethora of Gucci Gremlins, Dolce and Gabbana x Kim Kardashian, and Cher closing Balmain last week, things unbelievably managed to go up another level.
Seemingly though, it was all a little much for Kanye, who presented a frankly inexplicable YEEZY show in Paris, soon after Balenciaga had revealed its suspiciously-familiar box logo. Paris was also the home of an array of stand-out beauty moments in the form of fake piercings, devil hair, and eyebrow bling, while condom gloves became this season’s must-have accessory.
Away from fashion week, it was yet another big week for footwear. Patta’s 990v3 alongside New Balance finally dropped, as did MIZUNO’s Wave Mujin TL GTX and Levi’s foray into footwear, while AURALEE's revealed another New Balance XC72 for early next year.
Rosalía was revealed as the face of Acne Studios Fall/Winter 2022 with a history-themed campaign, as man like Jonah Hill and A$AP Rocky were spotted in the wild dishing out some pretty boss looks.
Aside from that (and actually loads more), it was a pretty quiet one on the news front. That was a joke. Here are some of the stand-out moments and must-reads from this week, ICYMI.
