Red lipsticks: 10 of the best
When I first started being bold with my lipstick choices, red was my daily go-to. The brighter the better. I'm not quite sure when I began automatically reaching for neutrals. It wasn't that I gave up on red. I just found a neutral lip quick and easy, because what's not to love about something you can put on in seconds without a mirror? But I've begun seeing red again. Red brightens your smile and lifts your demeanour. There's just something about a pop of colour that gives you a different kind of energy. There are the nuanced reds with a hit of orange or pink to add a point of difference, as well as the deeper 'true reds' that are growing in availability and quality. Pigments are also improved (if you have to go over a lip colour numerous times to get the shade you see on the bullet then it really isn't doing its job). Textures are more refined – satin finishes for instance, velvety with just a bit of shine, last longer than they once did. As do the mattes. But not at a cost. In the not so distant past, wearing mattes meant accepting your lips would dry out and resemble a dehydrated road map. Today's great mattes are both dense and hydrating. Add the intensity of a popping red and the result is sensational.

Former Sies Marjan Designer Sander Lak Is Launching a Namesake Menswear Brand
Sander Lak, the brain behind the beloved and now-closed New York labelSies Marjan, is returning to the fashion circle with the launch of his own namesake brand. Stylized as Sanderlak, the imprint is set to debut during Paris Fashion Week Men's later this month. Lak, who boasts a Master's degree in menswear from Central Saint Martins, spent five formative years designing both men's and womenswear at Dries Van Noten, before launching Sies Marjan in 2016. Despite backing from billionaire husband and wife Nancy and Howard Marks, a CFDA Emerging Designer of the Year trophy, and prime placement on the likes of Barneys New York's shelves, the label was forced toclose its doorsin 2020 due to the financial impact of the COVID crisis. Sanderlak, funded in part by angel investors, will see Lak design menswear-inspired collections shaped by his own global upbringing (he grew up between Malaysia, Gabon, Scotland, and the Netherlands) and his 'ongoing exploration of identity and place.' Each collection will center around a specific location, which will inform the line's themes, colors, fabrics, and demeanor. Sanderlak will release two main collections each year. The brand will debut its first line in Paris through private appointments next month.

9 Ways to Embrace Summer's Standout Prints—From Bohemian Florals to Stripes Galore
A bold printed dress is often the whole outfit—and for the spring/summer 2025 season, the runways proved just how many directions that outfit can take. From Dries Van Noten's pastiche-like mix-and-match of artful prints to Miu Miu's playful clash of textures and colors, Toteme's minimalist approach with classic stripes, and Chloé's bohemian ease—there's not just one way to wear a printed dress, and that's exactly the point. Styling a printed dress doesn't necessarily have to mean going all out. With the right pairings, even the most vibrant pattern can feel understated and modern. Vogue's Favorite Printed Dresses: Whether you're dressing for a city stroll, a sunny holiday or a formal wedding, the printed dress can be reimagined endlessly. Try it with casual flip-flops and a knit slung around the waist for off-duty cool; with jelly sandals and a denim jacket for an irreverent twist, or suede flats and a crisp shirt for understated elegance. Whatever your style or setting, the printed dress adapts—and these nine refined outfit ideas below show just how versatile patterns can be. Going Gingham With Flip-Flops and a Lightweight Knit A printed dress can be your easiest everyday piece. Take this cotton halter from Massimo Dutti for example, paired with simple yet chic red and black flip-flops from The Row, a silver shell-shaped ring from Sophie Buhai, and a soft cotton-blend Leset cardigan to wrap around the waist for nonchalant ease. Effortless Daytime Polish With Suede Touches The kind of printed dress you can wear anywhere—Ulla Johnson's paisley style works just as well for city strolls as sunny holiday destination. Pair it with Ancient Greek Sandals's suede flats and Aesther Ekme's half-moon bag to give the look understated elegance and throw on a Flore Flore shirt in the perfect grey color as a casual layer for chilly evenings. Seeing Stripes With a Trending Jelly Flat and Denim Jacket Sometimes, the fun is in the unexpected. Take an understated printed dress like this one from Toteme and give it a playful twist with this season's surprise hit: Chloé's jelly sandals. Pair it with a dark-wash jean jacket from emerging denim label Rùadh and a chic gold necklace from Copenhagen-favorite Lié Studio to strike the ultimate balance of polished and playful. Modern Minimalism With Abstract Stripes and a Chic Statement Pendant For those who usually gravitate toward solids, choose a dress in muted tones and a tonal print like this slip from Australian brand Sir. To keep it simple yet chic, wear it with hand-woven flats from Dear Frances, a silver statement necklace from Juju Vera, and a structured practical bag from Manu Atelier. Runway-Inspired Bohemian With Platform Heels and Oversized Sunglasses Take cues from the SS25 shows and style your printed dress the boho way—think a floral dress like this Mango number and the '70s-inspired shoe of the season, a platform wedge—like these from Massimo Dutti. Lean into the theme with oversized gold-tone sunglasses from Khaite x Oliver Peoples and finish the look with a woven raffia pouch from Cos. The Refined Wedding Guest Look With Strappy Heels and It Bag Wearing a printed dress to a wedding can feel bold—but styled with the right accessories it's suddenly easy to wear. This streamlined silhouette from Dries Van Noten has a subtle but elevated print that you can easily pair with Khaite's strappy heels, the perfect compact yet chic black bag from fashion girl-favorite Savette, and classic Wayfarers from Ray-Ban for the group photos. The Statement Mesh Mini With Fashion-Forward Accessories A printed mesh mini is a bold choice—consider softening the look with Tory Burch's mesh flats featuring sculptural silver hardware. Add in the L.L. Bean x Tibi belted tote bag—a street style hit—and oversized Thistles sunglasses (a Jennifer Lawrence favorite) for a relaxed look that reads equal part directional and carefree. Jean Paul Gaultier x KNWLS mini dress $490 SSENSE Thistles The Atlas sunglasses $290 THISTLES Pretty in Polka Dots With a Trench Coat, Raffia Bag, and Loafers Crafted from a silky-satin blend with a halter neckline, this Dôen dress feels elevated yet relaxed. Dragon Diffusion's woven green bag adds the perfect hint of color, while Reformation's black loafers and Jenni Kayne's timeless trench balance it out with a grounded, classic feel. Destination Dressing With Florals, Feathers and Beads This floral feather-trimmed dress from La DoubleJ sets the tone for holiday nights, styled with flat Mango sandals that keep things easy yet chic. A black beaded mini bag from Zara and glass bead earrings from Completedworks inject a dose of whimsy and personality for a chic vacation look.
