Megan Thee Stallion and Dua Lipa Wear Witchy Corsets and Bikinis in "Sweetest Pie"

Dua Lipa and Megan the Stallion released a new single, "Sweetest Pie" on March 11, and the accompanying video is a fashion feast for the eyes. Embracing this season's Victorian and Matrix-inspired trends, the two Grammy award winners make a case for patent leather, opulent jewelry, extravagant headpieces, and spider couture.

Set in an enchanting forest, the opening scene finds Megan moving gracefully in a tight-fitting, black patent leather gown featuring a plunging neckline, long sleeves and a cascading bell skirt. Accessorized with gold bracelets, collar necklaces, and a black wide-brim hat, the 27-year-old rapper's look packed plenty of allure.

Lipa, who posed next to her, donned an ornate Schiaparelli couture gown that turned her into the chicest witch on a mission to captivate her suitors. The surrealist-looking design featured a gold-trimmed sweetheart neckline and S-shaped horns embellished with gold metal plates. A matching veil hat, swirly choker necklace, and metallic waist inserts added to the drama.

This was only the first in a series of spectacular ensembles, several of them involving corseted silhouettes. We spotted a blue pearl-layered corset with matching thigh-high boots; an embellished blue bustier worn with platform heels; a gold cutout bodysuit with green gemstones; and an all-black mesh corset mini dress. In later scenes, the pop stars embraced spider couture, Lipa in a bandeau top and mini skirt look finished with spiked fangs (from Maximilian's Spring 2022 Ready-to-Wear collection), and Megan in a skeleton bodysuit. In one scene, the duo matched their makeup to their pool-friendly looks, Megan in a cerulean bikini and aquatic-inspired eyeshadow, and Lipa in a black swimsuit with gold accents and a shimmery metallic eye.

Megan explained on Twitter that the video is inspired by her love of "horror films" and it's meant to signify resilience in the face of misogyny. "The symbolism of the video was how when men come for me I eat they ass up every time," she tweeted, adding: "and even when y'all go on y'all's witch hunts attacking women for whatever reasons y'all make up we still rise from the ashes stronger than ever🖤."

Scroll on to watch the "Sweetest Pie" video, and prepare to be seduced by the fantastical costumes.

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...
