Naomi Campbell turns 55 in a sculptural Mugler gown that redefines monochrome drama
Naomi Campbell celebrated her 55th birthday on May 22, 2025, in a striking black-and-white Mugler gown. The sleek column dress featured architectural detailing, high slits, and contrasting panels, highlighting her figure. She accessorized with Damiani jewels and classic black heels. Naomi Campbell's birthday celebrations have always been a study in high fashion and this year was no exception. The supermodel marked her 55th birthday on May 22, 2025, by stepping out in a show-stopping Mugler creation that proved once again why she remains an eternal fashion icon. Ditching bright hues in favour of a bold black-and-white palette, Naomi stunned in a sleek column gown that oozed confidence and couture craftsmanship. The look was anything but simple: the sharply tailored silhouette featured architectural detailing and dramatic high slits on both sides, bordered by contrasting fabric panels that amplified the impact. Mugler minimalism with maximum impact Crafted with precision by the house of Mugler, the gown highlighted Naomi's statuesque frame with its fitted bodice and squared neckline. The interplay of black and white fabric sculpted a visually striking effect that felt modern, artistic, and utterly timeless. The vertical white panels running down the length of the dress offered a visual elongation, an intentional design trick that enhanced her already commanding presence. But it wasn't just the silhouette that did all the talking. The side slits, rising high up the legs, added an undercurrent of daring to the otherwise monochrome look, offering just the right amount of edge without compromising the gown's elegance. Diamonds and drama To elevate the look further, Naomi adorned herself with glittering jewels from Italian house Damiani. A statement necklace with a dramatic teardrop pendant anchored her décolletage, while coordinating earrings and slim bangles provided a luxe finishing touch. Her black heels, classic and understated, let the gown maintain its rightful spotlight. Hair and makeup: Red carpet ready The birthday girl's glam was nothing short of immaculate. Her makeup featured a velvety matte finish with sculpted cheekbones, shimmer-flecked eyelids, and a nude lip that balanced the overall look. Her hair, long and cascading in polished waves, framed her face like a curtain of glamour - soft, feminine, and impossibly chic. Naomi's ongoing love affair with high fashion Campbell's Mugler moment is just the latest in her decades-long streak of fearless fashion choices. Whether she's walking the Paris Fashion Week runway for Balmain or donning avant-garde headpieces and metallic bodices, Naomi doesn't just wear clothes, she turns them into cultural moments. Case in point: her previous appearance in a sculptural gold torso piece at a Balmain show, complete with a gilded bouquet held by faux hands, was the definition of wearable art. Verdict: Monochrome, but make it mesmerising Naomi Campbell's birthday look confirms what we've always known - she doesn't need bright colours to make a bold statement. With precision tailoring, dramatic details, and a regal aura, her black-and-white Mugler gown delivered a masterclass in modern elegance. She didn't just celebrate a milestone birthday; she made it a fashion moment for the ages. One step to a healthier you—join Times Health+ Yoga and feel the change

Fashion's Piercing Obsession Is The Antidote To The Quiet Luxury Trend
All linked products are independently selected by our editors. If you purchase any of these products, we may earn a commission. I'm exhausted by the ' quiet luxury ' trend. The understated look, popularized by brands like The Row and Totême and cultural drivers like Succession, has dominated the fashion industry for nearly two years — causing the market to feel saturated with lackluster, albeit universally appealing, basics. As a result, those with a more alternative sense of style (like me) are left craving something edgier and grittier, like an asymmetrical silhouette, playful textile combinations, or some eye-catching adornments — something with a more distinctive personality. Thankfully, I'm not the only one looking to disrupt the khaki trench coat haze, and designers across the fashion industry are taking cues from the punk movement by refreshing a timeless motif that has also fortified me during trying times: a piercing. While my early experience with piercings was sneaking off to New York City at the age of 17 to visit a dubious smoke shop-turned-piercing parlor on St. Mark's, designers are proposing something different — using piercing-like designs to adorn every garment and accessory imaginable. Versions of metal horseshoes, captured bead hoops, and barbells can now be found on everything from shoes to bags, shirts to skirts, sunglasses to belts, and more. Whether you're simply a fan of the look or have real piercings of your own, incorporating them into fashion is a way to engage with the trend without committing to the trials and tribulations of body modification, pain, or aftercare. Can't (or don't want to) get your nipples pierced? Try the Skims push-up bra or the Mugler bodysuit with a faux set of embellishments. The very act of piercing is deliberate, combined with a bit of pain and determination, so using piercings in clothes and accessories creates a sense of impact. Punk subcultures have used piercings as a vehicle of self-expression and rejection of societally-imposed beauty standards since the '70s, and the 'other-ness' of having piercings created a sense of belonging among people who had them. While piercings today are more widespread and accepted by mainstream society than they used to be, utilizing them as adornments in fashion still seems to be a rebellion of sorts against the 'beige-wash of quiet luxury,' as Ssense womenswear buying director, Isla Lynch, puts it. 'The introduction of piercing and hardware to classic silhouettes has offered a subtle edge and individuality to dressing again,' she tells Refinery29. And while piercings are certainly not new to fashion, Tory Burch's Pierced Mules and Pierced Slingbacks, leather flats with metallic hardware at the toe, seemed to kick off the latest wave of embellishments. The designer debuted the styles as part of the brand's spring/summer 2023 collection, and they became so popular that Burch began adding the metal detail to nearly every shoe style — from sandals to slides, pumps, and wedges — before recently expanding to pierced tote bags. Celebs including Elizabeth Olsen, Mindy Kaling, Ella Emhoff, and Joey King have been spotted wearing various versions of the shoe; fashion editors everywhere endorsed the style. The style was a stark, refreshing change of pace for the brand, which was — until then — known for preppy, classic designs. Today, several other luxury labels are leading the charge. Lado Bokuchava has designed numerous shoes, bags, and garments adorned with silver hoops and horseshoes in recent seasons. Melitta Baumeister incorporated chunky piercings on various tops, boots, and gloves in both spring/summer and fall/winter 2025 collections, while Aknvas showed a pierced dress and matching scarf in its spring/summer 2025 collection. Among other accessory iterations, Déhanche designed a belt with dangling hoops, while brands like Dezi and Arcus sell sunglasses fitted with studs and barbells. Justine Clenquet, founder and designer at her namesake brand, has created a business around necklaces, bracelets, and earrings embellished with piercings of their own. 'I think the trend reflects a desire for more personal and expressive fashion,' Clenquet tells Refinery29. 'It's a way to play with identity,' she explains, but notes that the concept is far from new, given that 'brands like Vivienne Westwood [and] Jean Paul Gaultier have been doing it since the '90s.' Indeed, the punk influence has been alive and well in fashion for decades. Gaultier and Westwood were among the first major designers to incorporate body piercings into high fashion, a time when body modification was still considered somewhat subversive. Gaultier and Westwood sent models with facial piercings down the runway at their spring/summer 1994 and fall/winter 1993 shows, respectively. Shortly after, piercings became the focal point of John Galliano's 2004 collection of 'Hardcore' bags for Dior. Today, these vintage pieces are some of the more rare and expensive designs on the resale market. Dior's coveted Hardcore Pierced Saddle Bag is hard to come by and, depending on the condition, can easily cost upwards of $5,000 on resale sites. For comparison, a plain black saddle bag of the same calfskin fabrication from the same year can be found for as low as $1,750 on some sites. Even today, the pierced version of Balenciaga's Le Cagole bag is often priced at over $1,000 more than its plain black counterpart. As a perpetually gender-dysphoric nonbinary person, the piercing trend resonates with me in a way many other fashion fads don't. Throughout my life, piercings have helped me reclaim my body and gender. I had more than 15 by the time I graduated college, and still distinctly remember the euphoria I felt after seeing my eyebrow piercing for the first time — I felt like I finally recognized the reflection looking back at me in the mirror. While embedding metal into my clothes, shoes, and accessories doesn't quite achieve the same feeling, in some ways it has a similar effect: imbuing confidence in my self-image and instilling a feeling of protection, almost like armor. Metal is fortifying, and as I still mourn my body's rejection of some of my piercings over the years (RIP), at least my wardrobe can still bridge the gap and still make me feel at home in my fleeting visage with faux metallic accents. Body piercings are only semi-permanent after all, but a pierced purse is forever. Though the majority of people shopping this trend might not be in the midst of a lifelong battle against societally-imposed gender norms, the heavy metal look still speaks to its wearer's desire to subvert prescriptive aesthetics. While the impact of a pierced bag isn't quite the same as flesh-and-blood modification, they're both a means of self-expression and, in many cases, self-confidence.

Miley Cyrus flashes 'tramp stamp' tattoo in kinky chaps while complaining about an ex lover in new song
Miley Cyrus stripped down to black lingerie in the opening of her flirty new music video Easy Lover, which premiered Thursday night. The 32-year-old pop star wasted no time removing a black blouse to reveal her wearing nothing more than black bra, panties, and stockings. 'You're a wildfire, and I'm in your path / I've decided I wanna keep on dancing in the ashes / And so I call out, "Let it burn,"' Miley (born Destiny) sang. 'You got thе love I always needed / Tie mе to horses and I still wouldn't leave ya / But you're not an easy lover.' After getting glam, Cyrus is then seen strutting out of her dressing room while clad in a black blazer and a blue pair of archival Mugler fringed chaps older than herself. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop In a behind-the-scenes video posted Tuesday, the three-time Grammy winner tried the 1991 garment on and gushed: 'This is every fantasy!' 'We pulled from designers who've been part of Miley's style story throughout the decade I've been working closely with her,' stylist Bradley Kenneth told Vogue in March. 'Whether it's [Bob] Mackie's drama or [Thierry] Mugler's powerful silhouettes, these influences have always been there, just evolving with her. We actually hold the record for the largest collection of Mugler archives ever sent to a single individual, which is still surreal to say.' At one point, Miley noticed a muscular male model on the sidelines and winked at him. The sexy song happened to be co-produced by Cyrus' drummer boyfriend Maxx Morondo, whom she began dating in 2021. As the End of the World singer entered the towering soundstage, she removed her black blazer to reveal a turquoise-beaded bra and high-waisted black panties. Miley shimmied and shook her bra beads as she joined back-up dancers for a routine choreographed by Stephen Galloway. Hairstylist Cervando Maldonado coiffed Cyrus' partial updo and make-up artist James Kaliardos fully contoured her complexion for the video. The Tennessee-born belter co-directed Easy Lover with Jacob Bixenman and Brendan Walter, and it appeared to be shot entirely on the Warner Bros. studio lot in Burbank, CA. It marked the third single off Miley's ninth studio album Something Beautiful, which drops this Friday.
