Kelsey Lu Puts a Punchy Twist on a Classic Suit

Kelsey Lu’s wardrobe, especially when it comes to the garments that she wears onstage, can usually best be described as frothy: she can pull off mounds of Molly Goddard tulle or a baroque No Sesso gown with a sense of casual ease. For her performance at the Tate Modern in collaboration with Uniqlo and NTS Radio in London this past Friday, though, Lu took things in more of a streamlined direction. In lieu of a gown or something similarly over-the-top, Lu donned a classically slouchy suit.

The Kwaidan Editions set that Lu wore wasn’t totally traditional, though: Lu chose an acid green colorway, which her stylist Mindy Le Brock paired with some metallic gold Y/Project heels. In the photo’s accompanying Instagram caption, Lu thanked the Tate and NTS for letting her rework the setting of her performance last minute and Kara Walker for her “brave emotional art,” ending it all with an invocation that everyone can get behind: “To More Experimentation.” Lu certainly means that beyond just the domains of music, sound, and art—it can clearly be a guiding force for her otherworldly outfits, too.

Troye Sivan’s Latest Tour Transformation Is His Best Yet

Troye Sivan’s Australian tour has found the singer in full chameleon mode. With the help of stylist Marc Sebastian Faiella, Sivan has transformed into numerous era-specific celebrities, including Pamela Anderson on the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards red carpet via a baby pink marabou top hat and a waist-snatching corset. He’s even evoked more general concepts too, like when he dressed up as an angel (halo included) for a heaven and hell-themed show in Adelaide, or an opulence-inspired look for his date in Brisbane. And just in case you forgot it’s 2019, there was a yeehaw-themed outfit, too.

Sivan clearly saved his best transformation for last, though: the Australian pop star went full Ziggy Stardust for the last stop on his Bloom tour in Melbourne. Sivan proclaimed that “POP!” was the category for this one, for which he channeled a very specific David Bowie look: the form-fitting red jumpsuit, blue blouse, black block-toed patent leather heels, and eyepatch that Sivan donned are an exact replica of the outfit that Bowie wore for his 1974 kaleidoscopic performance of “Rebel Rebel” on Dutch TV show TopPop. Faiella even revealed on Instagram that it was the first time he put his fashion design degree to use in years to craft the pants. Although Sivan stopped short at wearing a red wig cut in the style of Bowie’s iconic mullet, there’s no question that he still nailed it.

Rihanna is Bringing Her Savage X Fenty Fashion Show to Your TV

Looking for a fashion show to watch on TV? Rihanna has you covered. According to a just-posted Instagram, the singer turned designer is planning a major event for her Savage X Fenty collection that will also be streamed on Amazon Prime Video on September 20. “We are working on creating the most bold, sexy, super-energetic experience you can imagine!” she wrote. The excitement was instant, with commenters instantly flooding the post with the flame emoji.

This September’s Savage X Fenty broadcast will be Rihanna’s second event for the brand since its launch in 2017. One year ago she held a show at the Brooklyn Navy Yard that opened with modern dancers followed by the likes of Gigi Hadid, Paloma Elsesser, and Duckie Thot in some of the sexiest lingerie to ever walk a NYFW runway. Infamously, the show was closed by a nine-month-pregnant Slick Woods in nothing but a thong, pasties, and teensy bodysuit. Immediately after her runway turn, Woods went into labor and delivered her son, Saphir.

Produced by the unscripted arm of Endeavor Content and Amazon, this year’s documentary is expected to offer similar levels of drama as well as behind-the-scenes access to the making of the collection. “Rihanna has conquered the worlds of music, film, beauty, and fashion. She has reinvented the idea of what fashionable lingerie should be for a global customer. The brand authentically reflects empowering statements of inclusivity, body positivity, and fun! The Savage X Fenty show promises to be a groundbreaking and truly unique experience, and we’re thrilled to give our global customers an exclusive front-row seat,” said Amazon Studios head Jennifer Salke in a release.

This is all good and well, but the question remains: Is this a proper fashion show? And if yes, when and where is it? A press release hints at a potential New York Fashion Week activation, noting that the documentary is in partnership with NYFW: The Shows, IMG’s proprietary New York Fashion Week programming. While the CFDA’s new five-day schedule is already pretty jam-packed with runway shows and events, it’s obvious to say: We’ll make time for Rihanna.

Selena Gomez has been nailing the art of vacation style this week. She began her getaway by celebrating her 27th birthday in Rome, then headed on over to the island of Capri, where she wore the understated combo of a sun dress and straw hat. Throughout all these beachy looks, however, the singer-actress has been carrying around one steadfast companion: a chic bucket bag. And it’s a perfect summer accessory.

Today, Gomez was spotted strolling along a jetty on the Amalfi Coast carrying Staud’s Bissett canvas top-handle bag. Retailing for $295, it’s an accessible style that’s heavy on the polish factor. With just the right amount of roominess, it fits one’s sunglasses, iPhone (for those ’grams), and wallet—all the essentials for sightseeing. Gomez paired her bag with a white denim jacket, orange tank, and denim cut-off shorts. On her feet, she also wore the same block heel sandals by Ancient Greek Sandals she’s been wearing all week long—because if something works well, you work it hard.

Inside Carol Lim and Humberto Leon’s Last Show for Kenzo With Selah Marley

Last night, in the sea of thousands who gathered in the Bercy Arena in Paris to witness Carol Lim and Humberto Leon’s final show for Kenzo, Selah Marley was fangirl-ing. The model was front row to support her two friends as they took their final bow as creative directors of the French fashion house. “Carol and Humberto brought Kenzo back to its roots in fashion,” Marley said. “They did it through their use of Pop art and youthful silhouettes, textures, and imagery. I adore their joyous attitudes, their daring characters, and their extravagant productions.” Lim and Leon’s swan song on Sunday evening certainly counted as over the top, not only for the fact that it was held inside a massive arena but also because there were two performances: one involving a dance troupe wearing archival looks from Lim and Leon’s eight years at the helm, and the other a musical interlude from Solange Knowles.

Marley, dressed in a bright orange lace ruffle skirt and matching cropped anorak by Kenzo, was mesmerized by the show, which was partly inspired by female free divers in Japan. “Carol and Humberto are always willing to take things to the next level and break boundaries,” she said. The model ran into a few New York friends before the night was over, including DJ Kitty Cash and RuPaul’s Drag Race finalist Miss Fame, a chance meeting that resulted in a pretty epic fashion moment. See how Marley’s entire evening unfolded in her behind-the-scenes images, above.
