Elle Fanning Basically Wore a Giant Gold Chain Link as a Crop Top, and Y'know What? It Works

Chain links have proven to be timelessly fashionable in the form of necklaces and purse straps, but Elle Fanning introduced us to an entirely new, larger-than-life take on the trend at the 2021 InStyle Awards on Monday. The 23-year-old actress commanded attention at the event when she walked the red carpet in a crop top designed to resemble an enormous chain link. Hailing from Balmain's spring/summer 2022 collection, the armor-like design features dozens of dazzling jewels lining the front and wraps around the back with a much thinner gold chain.

With help from her longtime stylist, Samantha McMillen, Elle paired the spotlight-stealing top with a simple low-rise maxi skirt, platform heels, and a collection of gold Balmain rings. Somehow, against all odds, the outfit . . . really worked. Aesthetics aside, however, we do have some urgent questions about the look. First and foremost, is it even remotely comfortable to wear? Is there a built-in bra, or at the very least, some sort of fabric lining on the inside? Is it made of plastic or real solid gold? How heavy is it? While we patiently wait for Elle to hit us up with the answers to these pressing questions, we'll be admiring all the photos of her rocking the wild top ahead. Won't you join us?

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...
