Carolina Sarria FW25 Explores Empire and Identity

Hypebeast3 days ago
On August 15, New York-based designerCarolina Sarria's Fall 2025 collection 'The War of the Three Kingdoms will arrive at CDG-ownedDover Street MarketNY. Drawing its core inspiration from 17th century liberation struggles in the British Empire, the collection is a collage of historical symbols representing power and identity.
The Colombian-born designer's punk-infused streetwear ethos is layered with references to the struggle for sovereignty in England, Scotland, and Ireland in the 1640s. She sets her focus on the Clubmen, a group of vigilantes that protected their villages from various forces on opposite sides.
Tartans are stitched together in asynetrical compositions, representing the sense of disorder and fragmentation. Imperial symbols such as crowns and cartographic illustrations are tarnished, and ripped apart. Elsewhere small details like gleaming silver and gold threads, evoke the metallic shimmer of armor, swords, and shields.
However, the final result simultaneously recall the Punk aesthetic of the 1970s, which also subverted symbols of imperialism such as the crown, aristocratic dress, and military uniforms. 'This is clothing for those unwilling to be written out of the story,' the brand concluded in an official statement. The collection is a reclamation of the discarded and damaged, converting these qualities into signs of resilience.
Starting on the 15th, Dover Street Market New York will offer a capsule of exclusive graphic tees along side The War of Three Kingdoms FW25 collection.

Today's NYT ‘Connections' Hints And Answers For Sunday, August 17th

Looking for a little help with your Sunday Connections puzzle? The New York Times has set a pretty solid challenge with today's puzzle, so if you're looking for extra clues – or the answers – you've come to the right place. Below you'll find an extra set of clues, the categories for each group and, finally, the solution to today's puzzle. Looking for Saturday's Connections? You can find our guide right here. New York Times Connections Guide Sunday August 10th It's another lovely weekend in August, though I'd be lying if I said I wasn't itching for some cooler weather at this point. It's been hot with nary a cloud in the sky, and all I'm asking for is a little rain. Or a lot of rain. Moisture of any kind would be lovely. Then again, in a few months when snow is piled high and it's too cold to go outside, I'll be pining for summer sun. We always want what we can't have. Be sure to check out my streaming guide if you're looking for some new shows or movies to check out this weekend. There's a lot of good stuff out at the beginning of the month. FEATURED | Frase ByForbes™ Unscramble The Anagram To Reveal The Phrase Pinpoint By Linkedin Guess The Category Queens By Linkedin Crown Each Region Crossclimb By Linkedin Unlock A Trivia Ladder Alright, Connectioneers, we have a Connections to solve, so let's group some words! Connections is the second-most popular NYT Games puzzle game outside of the main crossword itself, and an extremely fun, free offering that will get your brain moving every day. Play it right here. The goal is to take a group of 16 words and find links between four pairs of four of them. They could be specific categories of terms, or they could be little world puzzles where words may come before or after them you need to figure out. And they get more complicated from there. There is only one set of right answers for this, and you only get a certain number of tries so you can't just spam around until you find something. There are difficulty tiers coded by color, which will usually go from yellow, blue/green to purple as difficulty increases, so know that going in and when you start linking them together. You pick the four words you think are linked and either you will get a solve and a lit up row that shows you how you were connected. If you're close, it will tell you that you're one away. Again, four mistakes you lose, but if you want to know the answers without failing, either come here, or delete your web cookies and try again. If you want to play more puzzles, you can get an NYT Games subscription to access the full archives of all past puzzles. These are the hints that are laid out on the puzzle board itself, but after that, we will get into spoiler territory with some hints and eventually the answers. First, here are today's Connections words: Alright, the full spoilers follow here as we get into what the groups are today: The full-on answers are below for each group, finally inserting the four words in each category. Spoilers follow if you do not want to get this far. The Connections answers are: I definitely had a hard time with this puzzle, using up three bad guesses in the process. Weirdly, I ended up solving it in reverse order, or at least the reverse of how I normally solve these. I got the purple group first, then the blue, then the green, then finally the yellow. I chock this up to my bad guesses, and how they clarified what I was actually looking for. I was reasonably, but not entirely, sure that I was dealing with signs of some sort and things having to do with envelopes, but I also thought maybe some of the words were geared toward speeches or gatherings. With this in mind, I made a few wrong (but close!) guesses before I realized at least one group must have to do with freedom of speech, and that got me thinking about the First Amendment, which honestly we should always be thinking of in these censorious times. That led me to ASSEMBLY, PETITION, PRESS and SPEECH and my first group. I was pretty sure that my hunch about signs was correct. I had guessed EXIT, OPEN and WELCOME were all part of this group but PUSH had eluded me before. Then that old Far Side comic popped into my head. The one where the guy is pushing on a door that says pull – and the sign above says 'School for the gifted.' From here, I turned to the idea of an envelope and got ADDRESS, STAMP, ENVELOPE and NAME. I was worried this was too literal in the beginning, and that ENVELOPE was actually the other use of the word, as in something that envelopes something else (though this is what an envelope does to a letter). That only left the yellow group: ACCESSIBLE (which I thought was a sign earlier) grouped with CLOSE, HANDY and NEARBY. All done, with just one guess to spare! All told, a reasonably challenging puzzle! How did you do? Find more guides to Wordle, Strands and the Mini Crossword on my blog where you can also follow me for TV and movie and video game coverage.

How We Styled 'And Just Like That' – By The Show's Costume Designers

After three seasons, And Just Like That has come to a close. The Sex And The City spinoff chronicling the midlife adventures of Carrie Bradshaw, Miranda Hobbes and Charlotte York-Goldenblatt is bowing out after 33 episodes. In addition to the storylines of Big's death, Aidan's return, Charlotte parenting teens and Miranda ending her marriage to Steve, the fashion has remained a talking point, with fans old and new tuning in to see how our trio – and new characters LTW and Seema Patel – will be styled. 'There are so many good looks from season three,' Molly Rogers shares, appearing on a Zoom call with her AJLT co-costume designer Danny Santiago (both pictured left). 'I think we tried to move the needle a couple of times on Carrie, because she's writing a novel [set in 1864] and we wanted to reflect this in her clothes. So she has a lot of half booties on, a couple of hats and a few panniers [hooped petticoats] that pop a skirt out'. 'One of my favourite outfits of Carrie's is when she goes to Tiffany's with Charlotte in episode six,' shares Santiago. 'It's quite a beautiful look as she's being inspired by her book, and so it has the feeling of something from that era. She's got this beautiful vintage hat on with a beautiful dress, and underneath, these panniers that give an amazing silhouette, and gorgeous Maison Margiela pumps. For me, it's one of the best outfits from the season.' 'Carrie had on a pink nightgown in episode five. I watched them film on that day, and it was absolutely beautiful in the setting of that apartment,' adds Rogers, when questioned about her favourite look. 'Carrie's just in the kitchen with Miranda, but colour-wise, that was one of my favourite looks. We went to London and shopped, and we brought the nightgown and robe back. We also had fun styling the funeral in episode six because funerals mean hats, and us and hats, we go back a long way! We love a hat.' As the storylines of SATC and AJLT have evolved, so too have the styles of our three leads. Has the costuming of the show now become a collaborative process with each actor? 'For sure, I think because we all know each other so well,' Rogers shares. 'Kristin (Davis) is really good about texting me something that she saw in a magazine to find out if anybody has worn it. SJ [Sarah Jessica Parker] is really hands on in her fitting. She really does know how to display a costume in its best light. I've never worked with anybody quite like her.' Santiago agrees. 'When it comes to SJ having an accessory or carrying a bag, she's just so aware of everything, and knows how to make it look beautiful'. Addressing some of the more controversial fashion choices this season, Rogers recalls 'Everybody went insane about the [oversized gingham] Head In The Clouds Hat that Carrie wore to the park in the first episode. But again, do you want to see Carrie barefoot upstairs in her apartment? Do you want to see Carrie in a baseball cap? To me, it needs to be 'The Carrie Show', even if the looks cause an uproar'. On styling Miranda, Rogers explains that 'Cynthia [Nixon]'s more into jewellery choices. She is into the clothes, but she's a jewellery nut and she really loves to paw through the earrings and necklace combos; she enjoys that a lot. [Director, writer and executive producer] Michael Patrick King also wants to satisfy the audience's appetite for fashion.' While some of the storylines and the show's sudden end have generated a lot of online discourse, Rogers and Santiago always enjoy the fan reactions to their fashion Easter eggs, like when Carrie re-wears a familiar piece from an episode of Sex And The City. 'It's so much fun, and we're so careful about where we'll sneak those rewears in. A lot of the time we'll dress the closet with something recognisable hanging in the back to see if anybody notices,' tells Rogers. 'The fans really zoom into these things, and they get so happy to see those items again. It's like an old friend,' says Santiago. Rogers adds 'they really know what episode it's from. I don't even know that! They have watched so many reruns that it's truly incredible. It's wonderful, and I'm grateful. I'm always curious to see what the audience thinks about the fashion'. One of these moments was the reappearance of the printed Chanel blouse, originally seen in season three, episode 15 of Sex And The City. Originally worn backwards, the blouse was reworn for season three, episode three of And Just Like That, though fans noticed it wasn't the exact same item after forensic examination of the positioning of the coloured patches. 'Molly found that Chanel blouse in a vintage shop in New York. It actually came from Karen Elson's personal collection, and more than likely it might have been a sample from the Chanel showroom that was given to her. We've found some other pieces that Sarah Jessica didn't own from the first run, but now she does,' Santiago tells. 'I think that the internet was so excited to see that Chanel blouse again. At the time we never really looked at the reverse to see if it matched the original one, but that's how closely people watch,' Rogers says. 'SJ has such an incredible archive of everything from the beginning of the show. And we're able to go in and pick out pieces that we want,' Santiago tells. 'We carefully choose where we want to place each piece. Every now and then, we'll find things out there in the market that have already been worn in the show,'. Do the pair feel a pressure when styling one of the world's most talked about series? 'For us, what we do is very much in our own little bubble and we don't really look about to see what other people are saying,' Santiago shares. 'It's a very safe space when Molly and I are together and we're creating with the actors. It's very collaborative. We have our own little world that we create and being able to play is the best, because we can be open and creative'. As beloved as the SATC universe is, the reboot has received scrutiny from fans and critics alike. 'I don't do anything that I don't like, so it bothers me when people jump on the train of "let's hate watch", that's not what I'm here for,' says Rogers. 'I put a lot of joy and satisfaction in getting things into the room to see SJ's reaction and I find it all a delicious experience. I just do not pay attention to the negativity. I often wonder, can people enjoy anything anymore? It's just all so judgmental. I'm not that way. I live and let live.' In the same way as the storylines of Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte (and Samantha) will live on in television history, so too will the iconic looks and enduring fashion legacy that And Just Like That and Sex And The City have left.

MediaCo's EstrellaTV Caps Off July With Surging Prime Ratings and Strong Year-Over-Year Growth Among P18-49

NEW YORK, August 16, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EstrellaTV, the multiplatform Spanish-language network owned by MediaCo Holding Inc. (Nasdaq: MDIA), closed out the July ratings period with significant momentum, notching some of its strongest audience gains of the season and extending a months-long trend of year-over-year growth in prime among Adults 18-49. In the final week of July, EstrellaTV delivered 18.3k among P18-49 viewers in Monday-Sunday prime, marking the network's 5th highest weekly prime delivery this season and a substantial +24% increase over its season-to-date average. This robust performance capped a month in which EstrellaTV averaged 13.8k P18-49 viewers in the daypart, up +13% vs. July 2024 (12.2k). It was the fourth consecutive month and the sixth time in the past eight months that EstrellaTV has posted year-over-year gains in this key demo. By contrast, top Spanish-language networks Univision and Telemundo posted year-over-year declines in July among P18-49 in MS prime of -35% and -21%, respectively. Unimas saw a +15% bump year-over-year for July, largely driven by FIFA Mundial coverage. However, without the heavy soccer content in the final week, Unimas' audience fell -43% compared to its average across the first three weeks of the month. Strong prime time programming fueled EstrellaTV's July performance: Alarma TV (9p) averaged 30.4k P18-49 viewers in July, up +37% vs. its season-to-date average. In the final two weeks of the month, the show soared even higher, averaging 38.1k and 35.7k, respectively. Tengo Talento, Mucho Talento (8p) closed the month strong, delivering 18.7k P18-49 viewers in the final week, +10% above its STD average. 100 Latinos Dijeron (7p) was also a standout, climbing +23% vs. STD in the final week (18.7k vs. 15.2k). These gains reinforce EstrellaTV's growing relevance among younger Hispanic audiences and the continued strength of its programming strategy. MediaCo's EstrellaTV added more firepower to its summer season with the live music, reality competition, Objetivo Fama, on August 2nd at 8PM EST. Since its premiere, the show is building momentum with viewers and part of a non-stop music and soccer programming line-up this Saturday, August 16th beginning at 8PM EST with the heated Tigres vs. América Liga MX rivalry match.
