AS FAR AS TRENDS go, double denim is definitely one of our favourites⏤it's casual and comfortable and yet also très chic.

(including swimsuits).

New York Fashion Week came and went with little fanfare. This time around, there seemed to be a lack of enthusiasm for the affair. Vanessa Friedman, the Fashion Director and Chief Fashion Critic for The New York Times expressed a similar sentiment in the article, “Marc Jacobs and the Ghosts of Fashion Past and Future.” The article suggests a somber tone during fashion week. Friedman points out that it seemed to suffer from an identity crisis partially as a result from the loss of influence that New York designers once had over the fashion world.
The 71st annual Cannes Film Festival was recently held from the 8th to 19th of May 2018. It's one of the most glamorous events of the year and we always look forward to the montée des marches on the tapis rouge. Two years ago, Victoria featured The Best Vintage Cannes Fashion Moments of All Time and last year, Victoria's Secret model Elsa Hosk's red carpet look was stunning, she dedicated an entire article to it. This year, Elsa does it again with a stunning blush silk gown by Alberta Ferretti, and we're also including two other looks we loved: Kendall Jenner in a gauzy Schiaparelli, and Bella Hadid in a pink strapless custom-made gown by Dior.
