"An Unexpected Success. Sometimes you would think that the more complex the
content the more viral the success, but Khaby Lame shows that simplicity is the
ultimate viral sophistication to fame without saying a word. Despite the lifestyle change he had to make because of the pandemic, Khaby has shown that dreams are possible to achieve. Through his content on TikTok, the Senegal-born, Italy�based social media personality has gained a huge fan base and fame, being
considered one of the "Forbes Under 30 Europe Members Transforming Art &
Culture" of 2022 and now one of the new faces of Hugo Boss. However, despite all the fame he has gained, the content creator considers it all as "An Unexpected Success", the name of the exclusive interview in which Khaby lets us know a more personal side of him as well as his future goals within the entertainment industry.

"Never Put Limitations On Me". One is captivated when an actor like Javon "Wanna" Walton takes the spotlight, as he has shown with his role of Ashtray on HBO's Euphoria. @euphoria We think part of that appeal, beyond his great acting skills, is because of his ability to exude that passion that is part of his DNA. Being a reflection of a new generation of multitalented young people who want to do everything, having diverse passions and aspirations in their lives, the actor, boxer, and gymnast always keep his flame burning, as among his sights is to participate in the 2024 Paris Olympics. For our SS22 edition, the actor talks about his great passions, and how his life has changed since Euphoria, his upcoming film Samaritan with Sylvester Stallone, and
his upcoming projects.

In a cultural landscape increasingly dominated by algorithms, aesthetics engineered for virality, and the flattening effect of digital consultancy, @services_continu emerges as something deliberately harder to define — and therefore harder to ignore.

Founded in Paris by former buyers @raphderay and @florianovilasi “, the multidisciplinary studio moves fluidly between fashion, food, design, image-making, strategy, and cultural production, rejecting the rigid structures of the traditional agency model in favor of something more instinctive, intimate, and deeply human.

In conversation with @vtmag, the founders reflect on redefining curation, building community through intimacy rather than exclusivity, and why taking risks may be the only truly contemporary creative act left.

✨ Our favorite icon at the Met Gala? @paigebueckers !

In custom @coach  by @stuartvevers and sculptural @bijules jewelry, Paige didn’t just wear a look — she represented a whole community.

Athletes are the new fashion ambassadors because they bring something the industry desperately needs again: authenticity, discipline, and real community impact.

From NBA tunnel walks to the Met red carpet, the future of fashion influence is already here.

And honestly? It looks a lot like Paige.

She doesn’t arrive — she descends. Like a memory you’re not sure is yours, or a scene you’ve watched too many times to separate fiction from feeling.

Akima Maldonado moves through the frame the way certain characters move through time: slightly out of sync, emotionally ahead, never fully contained.
There’s something cinematic about her presence, but not in the polished, predictable sense.
It’s more erratic than that.
More intimate.
As if every image were a fragment of a larger story she hasn’t fully told yet….

Met Gala 2026.
“Fashion Is Art” transforms the red carpet into a true form of art, with the body as its medium. Hosts, looks on display, the most awaited designers, the best looks over the past editions and the key figures explored from A to Z.

Between couture, spectacle, and controversy, one question remains:
what does fashion represent today? What is the value of an event like the Met Gala in 2026?

Pause is a conceptual exploration of liminality, examining the space between sleep and consciousness through the lens of sleep paralysis and everyday dissociation. The collection translates these intangible psychological states into sculptural garments that embody tension, stillness, and unease. Silhouettes appear suspended mid-motion, balancing softness and restriction, while manipulated textiles cling, collapse, and resist—mirroring the disconnection between body and mind.
Rooted in a tactile design process, the work prioritizes material interaction over resolution, allowing fabric to dictate form through gravity and resistance. A restrained, moody palette and an emphasis on texture over embellishment create an atmospheric quietness, where fear is expressed not as spectacle, but as weight and presence. Pause positions fashion as a language for the in-between, inviting introspection and offering a physical form to emotions that often remain unspoken.
