California sun-kissed, babyfaced looks. A bombshell body. Celebrity lineage. A power posse (hey Tay Tay and Kendall). Oh, and 22 million Instagram followers. So what does Gigi Hadid know about designing a capsule collection for the everyday woman? Noelle Loh gets an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the Gen Z golden girl’s Tommy Hilfiger tie-up.
Gigi Hadid is not your average modern-day woman. We know that because her parents are multi-millionaire real estate tycoon Mohamed Hadid and The Real Housewives reality star Yolanda Foster. While many her age – 21 – dream of becoming a model/influencer, she’s been doing so since she was a toddler, almost as if it were premeditated, starting as the face of Baby Guess.
In the past two years, that career has exploded to include campaigns for Versace, Balmain and Tom Ford, as well as shows for equally megawatt brands such as Chanel and Miu Miu. Add her social circle – mostly equally blessed celebrity blue blood (Kendall, Cara, anyone from Taylor Swift’s #girlsquad) – and she’s become one of the most followed faces on the planet (with 22.1 million Instagram followers at press time – I swear that figure jumped overnight).
For all that fantasy living though, her de facto wardrobe is quintessentially Los Angeles, where she was born and raised. It’s casual with strong athletic leanings: cropped tops are a staple, as are leggings and skinny jeans, complete almost always with classic pumps, trainers or booties. If she didn’t look like a living Barbie Doll (luscious blonde tresses, button-cute features, a bod that singlehandedly brought back ’90s sexiness), it’d hardly win her props for pushing fashion boundaries.

A Not So Common Scent
For the first time, the singular house of Hermes has launched a chypre perfume fragrance type known for its complexity and dualistic nature a that comes in a first-of-its-kind bottle, no less. Keng Yang Shuen finds out more about Barenia, Hermes's latest scent that hit stores recently, from the brand's in-house perfumer Christine Nagel.
Strange Love
The six names in this story create wildly different works that tend to blur the boundaries among disparate disciplines. All have little in common except one thing: a certain wondrousness and sense of curiosity that inspire audiences to look at familiar things anew. Keng Yang Shuen reports.
The artist
Johnny Depp is certainly far from the conventional leading man: the iconically quirky on-screen roles, the rock musician persona (he was a guitarist before becoming an actor), the unexpected neoexpressionist portraits in 2022 (these paintings of cultural heroes ranging from AI Pacino to Elizabeth Taylor sold out in a day), and of course the title of being Dior's long-standing poster boy for its wilderness-inspired flagship men's perfume Sauvage for nine years and counting.

Collaborations with the art world have become a trusted way of injecting novelty into fashion.
Showtime
Shaggy, floor-sweeping, candy-coloured faux fur coats. A tuxedo suit with exaggerated proportions that's a nod to Marlene Dietrich. Bondage-inspired evening gowns. One would think that a collaboration fronted by a contemporary label would mean tempering down on the drama, but the Bimba Y Palomo collection, a tie-up between the fun-loving Bimba Y Lola and the red-carpet provocateur Palomo Spain, more than doubles down on it. Here, the latter's creative director Alejandro Gomez Palomo gives an exclusive interview on keeping the dream of dressing up alive.
