We’re in the midst of a wig renaissance.

Modern technology and impressive artistry have joined forces to create wigs that are so realistic, you can get adventurous with your color and style without a huge commitment (or insane expense) regardless of your hair type or texture. As a celebrity hairstylist and owner...

Last week,...

Though he didn’t have any firsthand experience with fashion or design, Alexander created swim bottoms that have a compression technology — and from that, Rubies were...

Folks with disabilities are rarely taken into account when designing clothes, especially lingerie. No mainstream lingerie companies are currently creating bras and underwear that are made to be accessible for women with disabilities. And honestly, that doesn’t make a lot of sense. According to the World Health Organization, 1 in 5 women in the world have a disability, so why haven’t they been represented in a product that so many women need? Luckily, Intimately.co is here to fix that. Founded in 2018, Intimately.co seeks to bring...

Back in 2017, fashion giant, Dior released a white t-shirt with “WE SHOULD ALL BE FEMINISTS” (a nod to Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie book of the same name) pasted in black lettering across the front.

Feminist celebs like Rihanna started repping the chic tee, and it was announced that a...

Nike’s official skater uniforms are out and ready for the world to see as the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo approach.

With holidays come parties, so finish your cat-eye (or Euphoria-inspired glitter look) and take your tresses to the next level with disco waves. Hairstylist extraordinaire Ellie Hotaling from N.Y.C.’s Fringe Salon used Bantu knots to create this particular style. 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...
