Nili Lotan, Designer of Slip Dresses and Staples, Is Having a Renaissance Among the Kids
Plus, Proenza Schouler’s designers makes a statement about diversity with their new lookbook, and John Galliano lets you into the studio.
Abloh, Virgil
King of social media influencers. Here’s how he got there.
Kanye West, longtime collaborator of Abloh, just wants to bring joy to the world:
Comme Des Garçons
A brief history of Rei Kawakubo’s genre-defying, silhouette-defying label Comme Des Garçons ahead of its Metrpolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute retrospective.
Crow, Rosson
The Los Angeles-based artist makes imagined worlds constructed out of vintage Americana, loves Cormac McCarthy, listens to audiobooks while painting.
Galliano, John
The man, the myth. In a rare interview with i-D, designer John Galliano — an alumnus of Dior and his own eponymous label, now of Maison Margiela — opens up about social media, the next generation of designers, and Joan Baez.
Lotan, Nili
With fans like Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner (and Inez Van Lamsweerde), designer Nili Lotan is having a Renaissance among the millennial crowd.
McQueen, Alexander
Introducing a new box bag of diminutive proportions.
O’Reilly, Bill
Fox News finally deemed fit to give host Bill O’Reilly the boot, after new sexual harassment allegations emerged — and this, nearly 15 years after the network settled its first wave of claims against O’Reilly. Here’s what it means — politically, socially, and even economically — for Fox News.
Schouler, Proenza
Cast three transgender models — Torraine Futurum, Stav Strashko, and Marcs Marcus — in its new Pre-Fall 2017 lookbook, shot by photographer Ethan James Green. Designers Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez explain their new spread is intended as a kind of corrective to the “embarrassingly lackluster” attempts at diversity in fashion of late.
