all time low Revenge of the low rise The hip-grazing jeans of our teens are back, and more terrifying than ever, writes Pandora Sykes. Should we banish them to the past? You may have noticed that, along with the distinctly futuristic feeling in fashion at the moment (see Kim Kardashian in head-to-toe black Balenciaga), there’s also a whiff of 2003 in the air. Actually, it’s more of a stench. Walking into Urban Outfitters feels like I’ve stepped into a time capsule and rewound 20 years of my life. Short of butterfly clips, the whole gang’s here: stacked Buffalo trainers, crop tops, Juicy Couture trackies with diamante picked out across the butt, baker boy hats, slinky slips and… low-riders. According to shopping app Lyst, searches for ‘low-rise jeans’ are up 58%…

stylist advertorial “To help vulnerable groups move home safely” Partners Wendy Robertson and Magali Boato run Shirley’s Removals, an LGBTQ+ friendly company that’s been operating since the 80s. Here, Wendy speaks about growing the business and the importance of kindness… To understand Shirley's Removals and its mission as a business, you have to look back at what inspired founder Shirley McGah to set it up back in 1988. At that time there was a lot of stigma attached to people living with HIV, and it was difficult for them to find removal firms. So Shirley bought a van and started helping these vulnerable groups move home. She was committed to moving every person safely and without prejudice. From there, the business became more and more established, especially within local LGBTQ+…

stylist advertorial The science of serums They may be considered a skincare non-negotiable, but is your serum working hard enough? Stylist explains how to get the most out of your formula There’s a reason why serums are considered to be the cornerstone of any skincare regime – light in texture, they deliver a potent shot of skin-loving actives deep into the surface layers of the skin. But sometimes it can be hard to find the right serum to suit your specific skin concerns. Enter No7, the UK’s number one skincare brand*, with its range of cutting-edge serum formulas that leave skin feeling smoother and firmer and looking more radiant after one week**.

costume drama Do you know your fan collars from your farthingales? Clothes play the starring role in every period drama. With a slate of new releases around the corner, it’s time to gen up on your fashion history Words: Holly Bullockillustration: Karen Gonzalez When Bridgerton premiered on Christmas Day 2020, it was like swooning back into the arms of an old lover: period dramas were back, bigger, frothier and more sumptuous than ever. We fell hard and fast for the Regency drama about London’s high society, with its Gossip Girl-style intrigue and refreshing inclusivity. By the end of March 2021, it had become Netflix’s highest-reaching title and, with the much-hyped sequel set to drop next month, we’re already dusting off our petticoats in anticipation. But it wasn’t just the scandalous…

seize the clay Gone To Pot Forget clothes, the new collections and collaborations setting your feed alight are coming from the world of ceramics, says Stylist’s Hannah Keegan Once upon a time, Instagram was a place to brag about clothes – handbags with wait lists were flaunted proudly and hard-to-get trainers were sure to rack up the likes. Today, however, you’re much more likely to see your Fashion Friend sharing their newly copped Florence Mytum vase or a paint-splattered Hot Pottery dish than any fashion item they’ve been lusting after. “Homeware sales are booming right now,” confirms Emily Gordon-Smith, director of consumer product at trends intelligence experts Stylus. “And ceramics in particular are tapping into our desire to make a statement not through our attire but through our home decor.”…

precious lee Supermodel. Cover Star. History maker. Healer. Beauty Addict.  Precious. Some names were destined to be set in bright lights and Precious Lee is one of them. Stylist’s Billie Bhatia talks to the model of the moment fashion: Aryeh LappinPhotography: David Roemer The fashion world has always been quick to announce new faces as game-changers – sometimes justifiably, other times it lands a lot like hyperbole. But then someone comes along who is genuinely mould-breaking, someone who actually switches up the game. Someone like Precious Lee. “I know that being the first of so many things is my truth – a blessing, not a fluke,” declares Precious, over Zoom, late one Friday evening. It’s 8pm and my usual pad-thai-box-set Friday night-in game has been scrapped in favour of a…
