Elements of Style

? In this episode of Elements of Style, we’ll talk about how to find beauty in the everyday (clothing wise). Finding beauty in the everyday is something I have become to increasingly value.

In a time when it seems that fashion is for everyone, Raf Simons underscored this position in an interview with Cathryn Horyn post his Diro breakup, saying “Fashion became pop. I can’t make up my mind if that’s a good or a bad thing. The only thing I know is that it used to be elitist. And I don’t know if one should be ashamed or not to admit that maybe it was nicer when it was elitist.”

The connection between fashion and Halloween is apparent. 365 days out of the year the fashion flock dresses up in one way or another. Halloween is just another excuse to show that you're in.

We also talked to Rajni Jacques, Caitlin Fair and Kayla (Style Genre) about their thoughts on the holiday.
