Get Ready, Upper East Siders: The OG Gossip Girl Costume Designer Is Back For the Reboot

April 30, 2020 at 11:38PM HBO Max has been pretty tight-lipped about its forthcoming Gossip Girl reboot, but we just learned a crucial detail that has us even more excited for the eventual debut. The show’s original costume designer, Eric Daman, recently confirmed that he’s on board for the spinoff, meaning we’ll be treated to more head-turning, trendsetting outfits from the genius responsible for Serena van der Woodsen and Blair Waldorf’s most iconic looks. Eek!

The Gossip Girl spinoff is essentially a continuation of the OG series and will revolve around a whole new set of Upper East Side teens at Constance Billard School for Girls. What will be the 2020 equivalent of Serena’s yellow ruffled bridesmaid dress? How will Eric possibly top Jenny Humphrey’s edgy wardrobe? Will there be any sweatpants-over-dress wardrobe malfunctions this time around? You better believe we’ll be tuning in, whenever that may be, to find out.

But Seriously, Where Can I Buy That Tweed Dress From Never Have I Ever?

April 30, 2020 at 10:35PM Image Source: Netflix Netflix’s Never Have I Ever is certainly a must watch for its relatable humor, cultural exploration, and, of course, charming love interests. But in between giggling at Devi’s awkward moments and relating to her family’s struggles, I was zeroed in on these teen characters’ style choices . . . most importantly, the outfit Devi models for Paxton’s sister, Rebecca, in a last-minute “fashion emergency.” While I’m far from being a teenager, I was absolutely obsessed with Devi’s yellow tweed dress (and matching booties). I mean, are we really supposed to believe that a young teen designed this daring yet polished outfit?! Though we only get a peek of one look from Rebecca’s collection in episode eight, thankfully, Never Have I Ever‘s costume designer, Salvador Pérez Jr., recently shared more where that came from. Related: The Never Have I Ever Cast Did a TikTok Dance and Reminded Us How Much We Miss Tank Dresses Pérez posted a carousel of photos featuring the full 2020 Rebecca Hall-Yoshida Collection on his Instagram, which includes a whole lot of tweed, hearts, and color. In the caption, the designer explained that he “designed very simple and sweet pieces that a teen girl could have made herself.” And if you’re a big Mindy Kaling fan, you might have noticed that Pérez used leftover clothing from The Mindy Project to create Rebecca’s collection. “I think @target should market the collection!” he added. So, seriously, who can I talk to

How New Canadian Brand 19/99 Beauty is Changing the Conversation Around Age

April 30, 2020 at 10:30PM Launching a new beauty brand in the midst of a global health pandemic might sound incredibly stressful, but for Camille Katona and Stephanie Spence, the timing allowed them to reiterate the messaging behind their new brand, 19/99 Beauty. “The pandemic hit when we were about six weeks out from launch,” they tell FASHION via email. “We, along with so many others, were and are grasping for ways to adjust to our new world and 19/99 will have, more than ever, a focus on building community and conversations. While what is happening in the world is devastating, we are also seeing a shift in what we as a society truly value. As a new beauty brand, our hope is to be able to use this time to rethink what beauty is all about.” Photograph courtesy of 19/99 Beauty In a release, the Toronto-based pair (who have both worked in the industry for more than 10 years) describe the brand as making “high-performance, multi-purpose products designed for those who want to define their own beauty and don’t give a sh*t about what is considered appropriate.” The line launched with just two products – the Precision Colour Pencil ($26) and High-Shine Gloss ($24) – which the pair says was a deliberate move to help combat the excess waste already hyper-present in the industry. “We wanted to challenge ourselves to create a limited number of products that are universal; that work for anyone regardless of age, skin tone, aesthetic
