You might have shared or liked the many memes that poked fun at the flowing gown Rihanna wore to the Met Gala. At last count, a pizza, omelette, a frying pan and Big Bird have all been linked to the dress. Our favourite: this adorable video of a pooch wearing a similar look. On the fashion front, however, the 25kg piece was literally a style heavyweight that sealed Guo Pei status as China’s top couturier in the western fashion press. The biggest honour of the night: Riri made the cover of Vogue‘s Met Gala Special Edition.

The official word on Rick Owen’s decision to send models carrying other women for his spring/summer ’16 show was about women supporting one another. The unofficial word: It was a shock tactic that works and made us, ahem, stand up and take notice.

By that we mean Hadid was everywhere this year, gracing magazine covers, fronting campaigns, making it on Taylor Swift girl squad and scoring her wings as a Victoria’s Secret angel. This 20-year-old star is fast on the rise from the days we spotted her making cameos on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills which stars her mum.

To the producers of Scream Queens and the cast of this slasher/chick flick/hriller, we have two words: Thank you. Thank you for filling the void for sweet, mostly pink, pretty prepster fashion left behind by the cast of Clueless.

Know these names by heart: Ruth Bell, Camilla and Giulia Venturini, Kris Gottschalk, and Soekie Gravenhorst. These models will be the ones who are going to inspire next season’s refereshing buzz cuts.

To fashion insiders, Gucci’s new creative director is the nicest and most hardworking man in fashion. Hey, he churned out an entire women’s collection in five days. To shopaholics, he’s the guy behind some of the most covetable items in our wardrobes. Cue those furry slippers, the Dionysus bags, the Wes Anderson-tinged wardrobe, the vintage rings, the turbans. You get the picture.
