2026 Emmys Red Carpet Best Dressed (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Emmys red carpet has always had its own fashion personality. With television and streaming constantly introducing new faces and up-and-coming actors, there is a freshness and unpredictability to the dressing that you don’t always get on Hollywood’s bigger red carpets. This year, that energy translated into clear trends. Metallics were one of the night’s biggest stories, bringing some much-needed glamour back to the red carpet. My favorite was Zendaya in custom Prada, with its plunging V-neck
Behind ‘Character Study’: How Fall 2026 Menswear Sets the Scene (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is such a saturation of images now that thinking about algorithms doesn’t excite me much. There is also something happening with shoots: a renewed energy and excitement. I think fashion shoots have evolved with the times.

But the fall 2026 menswear collections seemed to be a return to clothes having the last word — with men looking for pieces that are worth buying, wearing and keeping. Thankfully! This is not about the overused and boring concept of “quiet luxury,” at least not in the minimalist, logo-free sense we have come to know. It is so
I Love Breaking Menswear Rules, but I Still Won’t Wear Shorts to Work (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I still have a hard time wearing shorts to work. This is ridiculous, I know. I am the style director of Women’s Wear Daily. I have spent more than two decades looking at, writing about, styling and selecting images of men in shorts. I have watched the silhouette become shorter and shorter, from the runway to the street. I have spent most of my life strongly questioning the rules about what men are supposed to wear — and yet, when it comes to wearing shorts in the office, I hesitate. I suppose I
