For years, legendary makeup artist Pat McGrath has been referred to by both friends and fans as Mother. But while that nickname won’t be going anywhere for as long as she’s creating stunning editorial and runway looks that can be recreated with her namesake cosmetics line, there’s now a new way one can — and
Month: December 2020
After days of being accused of sexual misconduct by unidentified individuals in social media posts, fashion designer Alexander Wang has broken his silence and is striking back regarding the allegations. Earlier this week a spokeswoman for the designer declined comment and other employees at the New York-based company did not acknowledge emails. But on Thursday
Tonight, the ball will drop in an empty Times Square. Will anyone be singing there on a chilly stage, while Ryan Seacrest looks on from a distance and Jenny McCarthy licks Donnie Wahlberg at midnight? I don’t know. But here are some photos I dug up from NYE’s past, and it includes a resplendent Gaga
Tessa Thompson wears plenty of ’50s and ’60s vintage looks for her role as Sylvie in Amazon Prime’s Sylvie’s Love, but when it came to doing press for the film, she shopped the high fashion runways. With the help of her stylists, Wayman Bannerman and Micah McDonald, Thompson has been pushing fashion boundaries since 2014,
Since none of us can go out tonight — well, maybe New Zealand and Taiwan can? Congrats, y’all! Have fun for us! — it seemed like a good time to tell tales of New Year’s Eves long ago. Did you spend December 31st, 1999 in a bunker waiting for Y2K? Did you spend NYE of
I have the type of relationship with my flannel shirt that you might have with your UGG boots. No matter the season, I’m always finding an excuse to wear mine. It’s soft, as comfortable as PJs, and can be styled up or down — to wear out, or to lounge around the house. While oversize
A new year always inspires change, especially when we’re putting a particularly rotten year behind us. So if you’re running screaming from 2020, it’s completely understandable if you’re eager to make a major shift in your look, like a new hair color. And after seeing this breathtaking work by colorist Maggie Hancock, we have a
I found this poster on Getty Images, but I cannot find a summary of the movie itself, and so I ask you: What IS THIS? On the surface, it appears to be a movie about a Santa Claus who has a baby head where his right fist should be. Or perhaps a deranged Santa who
Here at Who What Wear, we believe in the power of accessories. That’s why we’ve dedicated an entire series—Successorise—to it. After all, nothing has the ability to overhaul your outfits quite like a well-chosen sparkly hair grip or an elegant pair of earrings worn with a messy low bun. The same, naturally, applies to handbags.
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) revolutionized healthcare for Americans with disabilities. I can attest to this because it changed the trajectory of my life and many of my friends’ lives. Yet, in recent years, it has faced challenge after challenge in the courts. And while it seems likely to survive the latest case — two
Shopbop on Friday will introduce “Shopbop Moves,” an activewear campaign and series of interactive workouts for customers while expanding the category through a new Active landing page. Throughout 2020 the wellness and activewear categories saw an uptick; Shopbop directly noticed an increase across the category through “hearted” (or saved) styles from customers across leggings, workout
In the last few years, we’ve been attending two different New Year’s Eve parties with two different groups of friends — one that celebrates East Coast midnight, and then one that does West Coast midnight — and for those parties and those alone it’s become my favorite night of the year. But without them, I
After the last few months, it’s hard to remember the time when celebrities huddled together on the FROW, embraced one another on the red carpet, or popped to Balthazar for lunch. And my how we took these sighting for granted. Now that mask-wearing is mandatory, outfits are incognito, and events have been put on hold,
Fashion designer Alexander Wang, 37, has been accused of sexual misconduct on many different accounts, starting with a post that documents stories from anonymous sources on Shit Model Management, an Instagram that offers models a platform to come forward about issues in the industry. “Instead of letting these occurrences be swept under the rug, it
Shoes—remember those? Alright, so we may be being a touch dramatic, but there’s no denying that, over the past year, shoes (and bags for that matter), have taken a back seat and, instead, we’ve developed some new shopping habits. In lieu of treating ourselves to a new pair of heels to wear with your elegant wedding guest dress, we
A year with as fresh a start as this one calls for new names to add to your fashion radar. Allow me! As we embark on a new year with the hope of not only getting dressed again, but getting really dressed up, there is nothing better than adding a meaningful wardrobe addition to your collection. And
There’s more than one secret to good skin — it just takes some time to find the answer suited for you. And, while the journey to healthy skin can sometimes be frustrating when you’ve been steered in the right direction, it’s an amazing relief when you finally discover products that actually work. Luckily, these days,
People cut out alcohol and participate in Dry January specifically for a number of reasons, and the results vary. For instance, one of our former editors who gave it a try concluded that she had more energy, ended up eating better, and saved a good amount of money. Whatever your reason — or reasons —
One of the major perks of being a beauty editor is the abundance of products at my disposal. I’ve slathered my face in serums that cost more than a steak dinner, adorned my curls with the most luxe oils, and played with just about every liquid eyeliner there is. While I consider myself a humble queen who
If you’re looking to have smooth, sleek stands in the new year, you’re in luck. Why? Because we’ve got you covered with the best hair straighteners of 2021, of course.

Liza Koshy’s first business venture in fashion was during her high school days. “I used to sell T-shirts instead of studying for the SATs,” the entertainer said with a laugh. It’s a story she has yet to share with the world: “I would buy a bunch of T-shirts from someplace and cut out holes and designs
Sylvie’s Love costume designer Phoenix Mellow has what she calls a “bible of resources” when it comes to sourcing vintage — and that’s a very good thing, because the period film is set in the 1950s and early 1960s. Mellow, who’s also behind Black Panther and worked on Stranger Things and Mad Men, describes herself
Out with the old, in with the new—now’s the time to test-drive a new ‘do, and all signs are leading to fringe. Forget how you think they’ll look on your face shape, because we picked a pro’s brain to get the fringe facts straight. Keep scrolling for a guide to the best bangs for your
Like many of our classic styles today (think workwear denim or Chanel’s Breton stripes) even cardigans and henley shirts have humble beginnings that are spun chic. Henley shirts were named after the English town of Henley-on-Thames; they were the traditional uniforms of rowers in the English town in the early 1800s. Functional and sporty! That’s
Here’s the lowdown on how to subscribe to Allure’s print edition for more beauty routines, recommendations, and features. When it comes to our skin-care routines, there’s no step perhaps more indulgent than doing a face mask. Whether you prefer a deep-cleansing clay mask or a hydrating overnight gel formula, there’s no better form of beauty

Hilary Duff is a screen style queen. Growing up, we all copied her looks from Lizzie McGuire, and now we’re doing the same with her TV Land show Younger. The series follows a single mom named Liza (Sutton Foster) who reenters the industry of publishing in NYC, and while there’s tons of exciting drama, it’s
We begin with this Brooke Shields cover, which touts “JOYS” but on which she looks as wounded as if someone has just told her about what people do to eyebrows in the aughts. (I stopped here at 2010 because the last 10 years don’t feel “classic” yet, exactly. They’re not even archival, or vintage. Lines
Although 2020 has been difficult, the year awakened us to blindspots that fashion brands have and taught us a valuable lesson in where we spend our dollars. Every time I’ve made a purchase this year, I chose to see it as an extension of my beliefs and only supported companies that shared my values. I
More than 25 years ago, it was a patient with a port-wine stain who inspired Alster to learn more about the then-fledgling world of lasers. Alster accepted a fellowship in Boston, where her patient traveled to receive treatments. “So in essence, I changed her life because I significantly lightened the birthmark to the point where
