Nike’s official skater uniforms are out and ready for the world to see as the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo approach. Charged with the responsibility of designing uniforms for three countries—U.S.A., Brazil, and France—Nike partnered with professional skater and Dutch artist Pieter “Parra” Janssen to come up with a “kit of parts,” rather than a single homogenized “3-piece uniform.” “We were really cognizant about the fear of the Olympics and that skateboarding would have this homogenized look through a standard uniform,” Kelly Bird at Nike said,...

Originating centuries ago in southern Africa, Bantu knots are styled by twisting individual sections of hair into small, coiled buns, which can create cool waves when undone. It’s a technique that can be easily modified to fit your individual style and texture—prepping with the right type...
Just a few short years ago, I never saw girls that looked like me represented in the catalogues of my favorite clothing stores. This felt particularly evident when searching for lingerie. As a teenager, I’d have to play a guessing game on how a certain garment would look good on me, or run out of Victoria’s Secret in tears after trying on bras for two hours only to realize that 1.

That’s why I was so psyched to discover the affordable offerings at Balodana.com, a fashion site that only sells made-to-measure garments. Customers create a fit profile that includes a detailed list of all measurements—the site suggests asking a local tailor to do the measuring for the most accurate results—and can then choose from looks created by a dozen globally based designers. I selected a deep blue, retro-style...
