HoYeon's Louis Vuitton Lampshade Dress Is a Nod to 18th-Century Style

HoYeon gave us a lesson in fashion history on Sunday when she walked the red carpet at the Critics' Choice Awards in a Louis Vuitton dress that paid a striking tribute to 18th-century style. Like a lampshade from "Beauty and the Beast" come to life, HoYeon's dress draped straight down her torso before extending at right angles on either side of her hips thanks to the pannier, or side hoops, hidden under her skirt. Typically worn by European noblewomen in the 1700s, the pannier created a dramatic silhouette that mentally took us back to a time when fontage hairstyles were all the rage and petticoats reigned supreme.

Of course, as Louis Vuitton's house ambassador, HoYeon modeled the look on the red carpet with all the grace of a 17th-century French dignitary. The gown is one of many ornate outfits in Louis Vuitton's Spring/Summer 2022 collection, but the shimmer of the silver beads and crystals embroidered into the delicate fabric makes this an ensemble we'll have etched in our memories all week long. A closer inspection also reveals a red braided robe around HoYeon's left arm, a subtle, but unique detail that has us ready to fall in love with the dress all over again.

The "Squid Game" star styled the chandelier-style look with Louis Vuitton jewelry, a metallic manicure and pedicure, and strappy black sandals. Take a look at her stunning lampshade dress from all angles here.

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...
