Getting Ready for Miu Miu Fall 2025 With Joey King

It doesn’t get much better than a sisters’ trip to Paris Fashion Week. Actress Joey King, alongside sister Hunter King, were in town to attend the Miu Miu fall 2025 show. “It was such a special day,” King says after the fact. “I’m here in Paris with my sister, Hunter, and we knew the show would be absolutely stunning, but I think we were truly blown away by the creativity and playfulness of this collection; it really just brought so much joy.” A favorite from the collection was an all-purple look with red heels, a silver bag and a faux fur shawl. “I kept thinking, ‘I want to go on a date in that outfit,’” King says. Accessories wise, the sneakers that came down the runway “had me in a fuggin’ chokehold, I swear,” she says. “I took photos of every shoe that walked by me. And the super mini bags in this collection were so damn cute.” For the show, she wore a “hot Miu Miu outfit that made me feel so confident.” Confidence in her own sense of style is something that King is newly appreciating. For style inspiration, she’s a fan of people like Doechii and Nara Smith but is also

Taylor Iman Jones Illuminates the Depth of Jonathan Larson’s Legacy in New Theatrical Project

For its off-Broadway debut, “The Jonathan Larson Project” went back to its roots: the East Village. The new musical has officially opened at the Orpheum Theatre in New York, just a few blocks north of where Larson first staged his career-defining musical “Rent.” Although Larson died suddenly at the age of 35, on the eve of the show’s first off-Broadway performance, the writer left behind a cannon of creative output. Some of that lesser-known work arrives onstage courtesy of the “The Jonathan Larson Project.” The intimate — and at times nostalgic — production pays homage to Larson’s legacy, which was heavily influenced by his experience living in downtown New York. But while “The Jonathan Larson Project” tips its hat to Larson’s best known works, including “Tick, Tick…Boom!,” the intention was to showcase the writer’s range. “As much as he obviously loved writing musicals, he also wanted to write songs for the radio,” says Taylor Iman Jones, who stars as part of the five-person cast. Her first major solo in the show is a ’90s-coded pop number, performed as a music video shoot. “He had some songs labeled: ‘Whitney Houston songs,’ aspirationally,” she adds. “And so this is one that is written to be

The Outside View: Could Luxury Help Lead a Moral Renaissance in the U.S.?

Luxury brands searching for Eldorado as growth stalls in China are looking toward the U.S. — home to the world’s wealthiest and nearly crisis-proof elite.  But navigating the American luxury landscape could prove more complex than breaking into what was once seen as “terra incognita” in China for fashion’s European brands.  That’s because the current luxury crisis goes beyond any economic downturn in China and exposes deeper cracks in the industry’s core promise.  Luxury’s Existential Crisis In societies where inequality is soaring, materialism increasingly questioned and younger generations prioritize values over status, luxury must be redefined.  Years of relentless price hikes have frustrated consumers, yes, but the real challenge runs deeper: What is the value of luxury today? The next generation of buyers isn’t chasing status symbols — they’re searching for escapism, belonging, meaning and spirituality. This shift is accelerating in the U.S., where political polarization has turned consumption into a reflection of personal values and identity. It is a transformation being amplified by demographics.  By 2026, Millennials and Gen Z, who lean toward progressive ideals, will represent 75 percent of luxury buyers.  With the U.S. set to become a majority-minority nation by 2045 and nearly 30 percent of Gen Z identifying as LGBTQIA+ — no matter who is

From Oils to Solids to Mists — the Hottest New Fragrance Launches Are Only Sometimes Sprayable

The fragrance boom is heading in a new direction — or, directions. Nearly four years into the category’s continued growth, players new and existing are increasingly iterating beyond the traditional eau de parfum format, leaning into fragrance oils, solid perfumes and body and hair mists. It’s no wonder why: fragrance is the fastest-growing category in both the prestige and mass beauty markets, growing 12 percent in prestige in 2024 and 9 percent in mass, according to Circana. Nascent formats saw even greater momentum, with body sprays soaring 94 percent in prestige and hair fragrances also up 32 percent. Brands like Sidia, Cyklar, Kitsch, Touchland and more are paying attention — with the latter three all staking their first official claims in the category via such formats poised for further growth. Said Andrea Lisbona, chief executive officer and founder of Touchland: “The decision to embrace the power of scents has been integral to our success, so for our second category, venturing directly into the olfactive world made a lot of sense to us.” Indeed, the 2010-founded brand is best known not only for making spray-on hand sanitizer aspirational, but for its scented offerings within the category — from vanilla to peach to lemon lime

Finn Cole Dives Deep Into Role and Personal Growth With ‘Last Breath’ Film

Finn Cole’s Netflix algorithm had him well prepared for the role of Chris Lemons. Back in 2019, the documentary “Last Breath” landed on Netflix and it popped up as a suggested watch for Cole.  “I love watching documentaries because I love true stories for the most part,” Cole says. The story of “Last Breath” gripped him in particular: deep sea diver Lemons was stranded in the depths of the North Sea for roughly 30 minutes with only five minutes of breathable gas — and somehow survived.  Cole’s dad was an avid scuba diver, so the two bonded over the doc. Several years later, when an email came through with the script for a feature film version of the story, Cole was already sold.  “I didn’t even need to read the script,” he says.  “Last Breath,” out now, is directed by Alex Parkinson, who also made the documentary, and co-stars Woody Harrleson and Simu Liu. Cole, who is 29, was cast last, and as a fan of the documentary, was intrigued by Parkinson’s vision for the follow up.  “We wanted to capture a bit more of the essence of what it’s like for these guys living in saturation. I think that what you gather in a

Bunny Williams Taking on First Luxury Hotel Project

The Delamar Greenwich Harbor, a luxury hotel located in the upscale enclave of Greenwich, Conn., has linked up with design firm Williams Lawrence. Bunny Williams and Elizabeth Lawrence, who joined forces in 2023, will oversee the hotel’s first major renovation in 25 years. The renovation will include a redesign of the lobby and grand penthouse, as well as 65 guest rooms. The duo’s design approach for the hotel is merging “classic and contemporary elements,” to create an upscale and elegant environment. “The hotel has long been an icon at Greenwich Harbor and we plan to bring a new sense of style and timeless elegance to the spaces for the next generation of guests,” Williams said in an announcement about the project. The redesign will mark her first time working with a luxury hotel. The interior design icon founded her firm Bunny Williams Interior Design in 1988, which was renamed upon her partnership with Lawrence. Williams has published several books throughout her career, most recently “Bunny Williams: Life in the Garden” in 2024. Williams and Lawrence will release their first next book, “Decoration,” in fall 2026 with Rizzoli. Completion of the Delamar Greenwich Harbor renovation is expected for summer 2025, with room renovations set
