Kid Cudi Appears to Honor Kurt Cobain and Chris Farley With SNL Performance Outfits

Kid Cudi is paying tribute to two talented performers we lost in the '90s. On April 10, the rapper took Saturday Night Live's stage in outfits that appeared to honor both Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain and the show's former cast member Chris Farley. Kid Cudi's nod was especially timely given the 27th anniversary of Kurt's death on April 5.

For his "Tequila Shots" performance, Kid Cudi chose an oversize moss green cardigan, similar to one Kurt wore during an MTV Unplugged clip back in 1993. The rapper also paired the sweater with a graphic tee featuring Chris's headshot. The comic died on Dec. 18, 1997. During Kid Cudi's second performance, this time rapping "Sad People," he took the tribute even further with a floral Off-White dress reminiscent of an outfit Kurt wore on a 1993 cover of The Face.

Designer Virgil Abloh applauded Kid Cudi's style choices on Instagram, writing, "freedom is, as freedom does. feel free." Although the rapper has yet to confirm his exact inspiration behind the outfits, they clearly left an impression on viewers at home. Get a closer glimpse of both of Kid Cudi's looks in the photos and videos ahead.

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...
