How do you speak about a pan-Latin community of fashion designers that spans continents and cultures, from Latin America to the United States? With an awareness of nuance—and an overwhelming sense of joy, pride, and celebration of journeys hard won. Pioneers such as Adolfo, Oscar de la Renta, and Carolina Herrera— from Cuba, the Dominican

Okay, hands up: we’re biased. But it’s no exaggeration to say that British menswear has been a standard-bearer in men’s fashion for centuries. Its influence is everywhere, from the way clothes are made to how they look and what they’re worn with. For serious suiting, the well-heeled make the pilgrimage to London’s Savile Row. In

Your twenties – or the early ones at least – are the “wonder years”. You wonder how you’re ever going to pay off these tuition fees. Why people voluntarily choose to get married and have children. Why you drunk so many Jagerbombs last night. You also wonder what to wear, which is complicated by the

Nothing else comes close. The definition of a smart shoe, the Oxford takes us from school to work, stopping off at every

There are enough rules in life as it is. Some, however, are there to help. Like the rules that govern how to dress well. Of course, every man or woman that has an opinion on such things speaks from personal experience – and no doubt what works for one doesn’t always work for another; or

How do you define cocktail attire? Like many of the puzzling dress codes that crop up on fancy invitations now and again, the barometers are not immediately clear – at least, that is, for men. This is one of the (very) few occasions in life when women have it easier. There’s even a book on

Ever spend the afternoon hunting for the perfect dress but then can’t decide if you really want to splurge on your fave? (The most expensive one, naturally). Or maybe it’s a new pair of jeans that—honestly—you could be any one of four different sizes in, depending on the cut. Been there, lived that. And while

“I’m terrified of cats and my husband just got one,” says Serena Williams. We’re chatting over Zoom about her new jewelry partnership with Zales when slowly, the furry pet approaches the tennis champion.

Geoff Kim, Courtesy of the Brands Geoff Kim South Korea has quietly become Hollywood’s biggest competitor, churning out wildly popular music, TV dramas, and beauty and fashion trends with global appeal. This week, ELLE celebrates the K-World we’re all living in. You could say South Korea has had an influence on global pop culture, but

I love shopping online with the best of them—it’s my preferred method of hunting—yet there’s no denying you lose something when you can’t touch and feel. It’s kind of like real estate, where great photography and styling can go a long way to gussying up something that’s subpar. The shopping trick that I’m surprised more

Good shoes are the bedrock of a man’s wardrobe – the foundation on which everything else lies. Do you remember what happened to the man who built his house on sand? Well, neither do we, but we’re pretty sure it had something to do with him torpedoing a job interview by marrying a pair of
