Leave it to Dua Lipa to have the coolest birthday dress. In the middle of touring her latest album, Radical Optimism, the singer paused to celebrate her 29th birthday. We wouldn’t expect anything less from Lipa ringing in the last year of her 20s: dancing with friends and family (and beau Callum Turner) on a palm tree-filled island. And for such a fete, one needs an equally spectacular outfit—so Lipa turned to designer Dilara Findikoglu for her show-stopping birthday look.

Last night, Lana Del Rey served as the opening-night headline act at the Rock en Seine music festival in Paris. The singer hit the stage and performed her hits such as “Doin’ Time,” “Summertime Sadness,” and “Ride,” marking her second time playing the French festival, having first graced its stage back in 2014. “To play anywhere in Paris is more than a childhood dream,” Del Rey tells Vogue of the new setlist. “There is a fantastical element to playing in a park outside of Paris. I played over 10 years ago, and it’s always nice to have a full circle moment like this.”

"Baby why you gotta be so mean?" The zodiac is a fascinating system that many people turn to for insights into personality traits, behaviors, and compatibility. While every zodiac sign has its unique strengths and challenges, some signs are often perceived as being a bit more sharp-edged, vindictive or difficult (to say the least) to deal with. In this article, we'll delve into the four zodiac signs commonly considered the "meanest," exploring the characteristics that contribute to this perception and how these traits manifest in their interactions with others. To lighten the mood, we'll include some funny quotes about each sign's mean streak.

We don’t know about you, but Daisy Duke—the fictional character first played by Catherine Bach, and later, Jessica Simpson in the 2005 film adaptation—is the best part of that iconic retro TV series. I mean, how can you not love Daisy’s penchant for denim cut-offs and cowboy boots? Apparently, Bella Hadid is a fan of the country-western look, too: This summer, the model and Orebella founder has been sporting looks that are very Daisy Duke. But get this: They’re not at all costumey, but instead totally fresh and modern.

New York City, NY

Earlier this morning, pedestrians walking down the block at 16th Street and Seventh Avenue in New York City would have noticed a curious crowd of stylish girls and gays lined up near the old Barneys New York flagship at 101 Seventh Avenue. The young fashion lovers standing in the queue, which snaked around the block onto 17th Street, were all waiting to be let inside the Heaven by Marc Jacobs archive sale, which runs until Sunday and also features discounted items from buzzy brands such as Vaquera, Sandy Liang, Mowalola, and Eckhaus Latta. Many of the eager shoppers were young students, all of whom were hoping to snag a deal on the brand’s signature graphic tees and playful bags—while dressed impeccably in their own curated Heaven looks for the affair, of course. It was a true fashion-forward camp-out: Groups of kids sat cross-legged on the floors on large blankets, patiently waiting to be let inside.

As a person with extremely niche and weird taste in gay music (not to brag), I know intimately how destabilizing it can feel when one of your favorite indie LGBTQ+ artists hits the big time. Nobody wants to be the crank hollering about how they “listened to Towa Bird before she was cool,” but in such circumstances there’s a natural inclination to insist that you are not like the other weirdo groupies, but rather a founding member of the Artist You Like’s fan club, and should be accorded special privileges as a result.

Hot or not? My question refers to the mini mullet the planet’s most desirable men—including Paul Mescal and Harry Styles—seem to be turning to en masse this year. When I posed this same question to my Instagram community recently, the answer was a resounding not, save for a handful of wrong’uns (some of whom I call friends), who, incorrectly, responded positively to the trend.

Professional tennis player Carol Zhao and DoorDash co-founder Andy Fang both attended Stanford University at the same time—Andy even lived across the hall from one of Carol’s bridesmaids during freshman year—but it wasn’t until they both graduated that they connected. After Zhao sustained an injury in the spring of 2019 on the tennis circuit, she returned to San Francisco, where their paths finally crossed. “I had no idea that what felt like a career misfortune at the time would be the impetus to the start of our relationship,” Carol says. “Now, it feels like it was fate.”

Cult Gaia designer Jasmin Larian Hekmat is aware that her brand is mostly resort and vacation wear—so to challenge herself for fall she decided to venture beyond summery dresses, and experiment with heavier staples like outerwear, denim, and knits. “I love a good challenge, so I was like, what would I wear in New York in the fall-winter,” said Hekmat, who wanted to take on seasonal staples in a fresh, modern way. “I wanted her to feel like this powerful goddess.”

At last week’s Santa Fe Indian Market, hundreds of Indigenous artists across North America set up shop in their outdoor booths, gathering at the annual fair to showcase and sell their new works—including jewelry, pottery, textiles, paintings, and more. The handmade pieces, ranging from turquoise rings to vibrant ribbon skirts, were a true display of beauty and craftsmanship. But few did Native luxury quite like the duo Sean Snyder and Adrian Matthias Stevens: This year, the Indigenous couple created a beaded “Birkin” bag that transformed a luxurious bag into, well, an even more luxurious bag.

Jenna Lochiatto and Zachary Crowley first crossed paths as students at Bucknell University, but it took them moving to New York City to become best friends. After moving there in 2019, the duo did everything together—from running the West Side Highway to going on trips out to Montauk and Duxbury with their college crew. “In fact, we spent so much time together that our family and friends often questioned if we were becoming something more serious,” says Jenna, who works in travel at Google. “Although not obvious to either of us at the time, we were falling fast in love and there was no going back.” After years of what Jenna says felt like “informal dating,” Zach finally asked her to go on a real date at the William Vale rooftop in Brooklyn. “The rest was history,” says Jenna.
