Cannes Film Festival is known as one of the last true bastions of Old Hollywood glamour, and nowhere is this more reflected than in its fashion offering. While social media has turned premieres into viral contests (just think of Lil Nas X’s butt-bearing Dior thong to the 2023 Met Gala), the magnificent Croisette boulevard is a strictly sophisticated affair. And never more so than for 2025, as the organisers have enforced new rules just one day ahead of the start of the 78th film festival.

Fashion has always held up a mirror to the world — but in 2025, that reflection is more fractured than ever. Between the curated aesthetics of womanhood and the lived realities of women, a gap has emerged. After a fleeting era of body positivity, size inclusivity has regressed.

There was a strong sense of déjà vu this Autumn/Winter 2025 season. On Dior’s runway, Maria Grazia Chiuri revived the cult-status “J’adore Dior” tee – last seen in John Galliano’s Spring/Summer 2001 show, now styled with a cropped bolero and trimmed in lace. At Chloé, Chemena Kamali brought back the beloved Paddington bag, its signature chunky lock updated with charms that speak to today's maximalist, chaotic customisation trend.

This article is part of the Future of Appearance, a collection of articles that investigates what we will look like in 20 years. Twenty years ago, Botox was a novelty, social media (and the unrealistic beauty standards it enforces) didn’t exist, and the idea of injectable body contouring seemed implausible. Fast forward to today, and aesthetic interventions have become more sophisticated, more accessible and more normalised than ever. But what about the next two decades?

This article is part of the Future of Appearance, a collection of articles that investigates what we will look like in 20 years. As science and technology advance, the prospect of living to 100 — and far beyond — is no longer an exception to the rule but an expectation. Living longer is quickly becoming a proposition that will reshape how we live, work, spend and age.

一開始是褲子之爭：低腰緊身 vs 高腰寬鬆；接著是襪子之爭：踝襪 vs 中筒襪。如今，新一波世代風格對立出現在健身房。在 TikTok 上，一場關於運動穿搭的時尚小衝突正在上演，Z 世代越來越不屑於那些曾代表千禧世代運動風格的緊身套裝。 一系列使用熱門「認證」音檔的病毒式影片中，用戶們為自己的健身穿搭打分。結論很明確：對許多年輕創作者來說，那種曾經炙手可熱的「上緊下也緊」造型，開始顯得過時，甚至像是「國中生」在穿的。 搜尋數據顯示，這種轉變並非曇花一現的 TikTok 潮流。時尚數據帳號 Style Analytics 創辦人 Molly Rooyakkers 表示：「過去一年，Pinterest 上『寬鬆健身穿搭』的搜尋量激增超過 400%，其中 18 到 24 歲的用戶佔了 58%。」有趣的是，這股風潮似乎主要集中在美國——提醒我們，即使是數位時尚的對話，也常依區域而異。不過 Rooyakkers 認為，Pinterest 是長期趨勢的重要指標：「這是人們規劃未來衣櫥的地方。這項數據顯示，寬鬆健身裝不只是短暫審美，它是真正被人們期待穿上、搭配與購買的選項。」 Z...

Once a bastion of affordability and accessibility, the high street is now in the throes of an identity crisis. Where shoppers once popped in for polyester dresses and trend-led basics they’re increasingly met with limited-edition collections designed by luxury creative directors and price tags creeping into four figures. As aspirational shoppers tighten their purse strings amid a luxury slowdown, mass brands are racing to court them — offering elevated design and heritage-adjacent storytelling.

After years of political flip-flopping, TikTok could be banned in the US tomorrow. But compared to the last TikTok ban deadline – which prompted teary goodbye videos from creators and a public outcry – this time, no one seems fazed. That’s likely in part because a deal seems imminent ahead of the deadline to sell the company to a US buyer by 5 April in order to avoid a nationwide ban.

Over the past few months, 1 Granary has been publishing a series of regular features aimed at dispelling myths and misconceptions around starting your own brand. Fashion education, we feel, is too full of fantasy. You shouldn’t name your brand after yourself, but you should find a co-founder. You shouldn’t do men’s and women’s from the jump, but you should lean into AI where it counts. You get the gist.
