Affordable Care Act

While earlier this week, it looked as though House Republicans didn’t have sufficient votes to push through a bill that would start to dismantle the Affordable Care Act, a proposed amendment adding $8 billion over five years to cover patients with pre-existing conditions may have changed its course. The American Health Care Act will go up for a vote early this afternoon—though most critics warn $8 billion will hardly go far enough, and the definition of pre-existing conditions still doesn’t cover postpartum depression, C-sections, and being a victim of domestic violence.

Chanel

Last season, Chanel blasted off to outer space for Fall 2017. Now, Karl Lagerfeld is taking it back to ancient Greece; the designer showed his Cruise 2018 collection in Paris amid mock ruins and featuring a lot of lace-up sandals.

Menuez, India Salvor

Rousteing, Olivier

Balmain creative director Olivier Rousteing’s muse Kim Kardashian has been moving into the beauty sphere, and now the designer himself is following suit with a collaboration with L’Oréal Paris.
