Prada Sneakers Sit Where Sportswear And Nylon History Meet

Prada Sneakers Sit Where Sportswear And Nylon History Meet

Prada sneakers trace back to a real America's Cup sailing shoe from the 1990s, which escaped the sport entirely and became one of the first genuinely successful luxury sneakers.

This edit follows that shape from its heritage build through Re-Nylon, suede and leather versions of the same idea.

Entryway Design Ideas for Every Kind of Front Door

Entryway Design Ideas for Every Kind of Front Door

The best entryway design ideas start with what you drop the second you walk in: keys, bags, shoes, the mail. Here is how I would set up a bench or console, a mirror and hooks, and a few baskets and trays, for a real foyer or a door that opens straight into the living room.

The Best Shampoo Is the One That Does Less

The Best Shampoo Is the One That Does Less

Shampoo has been sold as a treatment for years when it is fundamentally a cleanser. The best shampoo removes oil and product without stripping the scalp, then gets out of the way. These are the ones that respect that job description.

High Rise Jeans Won the Decade, and Here Is Why It Held

High Rise Jeans Won the Decade, and Here Is Why It Held

High-rise jeans won the decade by putting the waistband back at the natural waist instead of the hip, which is the fit low-rise denim spent the 2000s working against. That correction borrowed from trouser tailoring rather than denim's own history, which is why the silhouette holds its position without constant tugging. This edit tracks how the rise stayed constant while the leg below it kept shifting, from bootcut to wide leg.

The modern flat iron traces back to a 1909 patent, and the good ones still come down to plate quality and a little restraint. Here are the straighteners I would look at, the heat protectants that go on first, and the smoothing serums that finish the job.

Oud Perfume Has Lost Its Intimidation Factor

Oud Perfume Has Lost Its Intimidation Factor

Oud perfume used to arrive with a warning label, smoky and animalic and very much an acquired taste. Western perfumers have spent two decades sanding it down with rose, vanilla and even fruit, and the result is a note that now reads rich rather than challenging. This edit moves from the bottles that made oud a Western luxury code to the ones that make it easy to wear.
