It's the weekend, baby!
To kick off our weekly recap, let's get the scary stuff out of the way: Elon Musk wants to buy Twitter, Travis Scott is launching his comeback, Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson went on a date with Jeff Bezos, and fast fashion giant SHEIN is looking to secure an $100 billion valuation.
The week wasn't all gloom and doom, though. Lizzo launched a shapewear brand, Highsnobiety got its hands on Heven x Coperni's viral glass handbags, and Al Pacino was confirmed to the the proud owner of a Shrek iPhone case.
In drops, Supreme released bloody T-shirts, Billie Eilish and Nike revealed an eco-conscious Air Force 1, and Therabody released a Theragun for your face. Not all releases went off without a hitch — MSCHF and Tyga's "Wavy Baby" shoe, slated to debut on April 18, is now the subject of a lawsuit filed by Vans.
Now, before you plunge into our week in review, take a minute to check out Palianytsia, a newly launched website compiling a master list of Ukrainian fashion brands to support.

What's the Deal With This adidas x Balenciaga Triple S?!?

PSA: Leggings Are Pants Again
"Move those low-rise jeans over and make room for fashion's latest round of Believe It Or Not, It's Back: leggings as pants."

Fashion Obscura: Kirsten Dunst's 2003 Met Gala 'Fit
"To kick off Fashion Obscura, Highsnobiety's new series voyaging through the annals of under-appreciated fashion history, I'm calling it: KiKi's 2003 Met Gala outfit is to modern fashion as KiKi's filmography is to the history of modern cinema."
