Tom Ford Expands The F*cking Fabulous Universe

Last year, Tom Ford sent out his new fragrance Fucking Fabulous along with the invitations to his Spring 2018 fashion show. It launched with a bang and immediately went viral but retailers grappled with its potty-mouthed moniker. A U.K. airport had the word “Fucking” crossed out on the bottle. A Saks Fifth Avenue in Houston, Texas, was said to have it on full display but a Neiman Marcus in the same city had a bottle hidden behind the counter with a sticker over the expletive. But how did the name even come to be?  John Demsey, the executive group president of Estee Lauder Companies which owns Tom Ford, told the story of how the designer came up with the name. Ford said the word “fucking” helped describe the scent of his new fragrance.

And it looks like the description resonated, because Ford released more Fucking Fabulous products yesterday. There’s All Over Body Spray that can be layered on top of the Eau de Parfum to add a second dimension to the scent, an ultra sensual blend of rich leather and tonka bean, refreshing clary sage, powdery orris root, sweet vanilla and bitter almond. For true lovers of the scent, you can now take your obsession one step further with a Fucking Fabulous candle.

To round out the collection, which is also available as a gift set on the company’s website, there’s the official Fucking Fabulous Lip Colour: a flaming red with a high shine finish courtesy of soja seed extract, Brazilian murumuru butter and chamomila flower in the formula. And in true Tom Ford style, it’s all in sleek, limited edition matte black packaging.

You might be wondering: was there ever any push back about the name of the Fucking Fabulous scent? Well, to put your curiosities at bay, a publicist at Tom Ford Beauty once said the name was “100% a Tom decision. We don’t negotiate with Tom Ford.”

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
