The Shopper Tote: Louis Vuitton's Bag of Tricks

4 days ago | sharpmagazine.com | Cormac Newman

Take a moment to think of your latest purchase. It could have been a practical one: a hardware update for the home office, say, or a replacement for your favourite trousers. Perhaps it was a special gift, thoughtfully plucked from the shelf. Wherever the transaction took you, we’re willing to bet that a recognizable, rectangular silhouette was there too: the shopping bag. As we ditch single-use plastics, the reusable shopping bag has become a quotidian staple.
Corteon Moore on New Series "Overcompensating", Toronto, & Personal Style

1 month ago | sharpmagazine.com | Cormac Newman

As he signs onto our Zoom call, Corteon Moore lights up the screen with a smile. The 26-year-old actor is dressed in a rosy pink Acne Studios tee and a pair of burnt orange shades. While we discuss his role in the new A24-produced series, Overcompensating, it’s clear that Moore himself has nothing to compensate for: he’s outgoing and approachable, using laughs like punctuation as we bounce from topic to topic.
8 Men's Met Gala Looks From "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style"

1 month ago | sharpmagazine.com | Cormac Newman

Titled “Tailored For You,” the 2025 Met Gala encouraged attendees to play with personal style — and, as guests marched up the museum steps, hundreds of inspired ensembles proved the theme successful. Legendary composer Stevie Wonder sported a sparkling, sequin-covered cape while country star Shaboozey subverted expectations, turning up in a cropped black jacket with a chic hardwood print. Yet the celebration goes beyond clothing.
An Eternal Dress Code: Discover the Dior Icons Capsule

1 month ago | sharpmagazine.com | Cormac Newman

The word “icon” conjures a dramatic image. In fashion, it tends to describe the loud and shiny things — head-turning looks that make a splash on red carpets and social media feeds. Yet the Dior Icons Capsule takes a different approach. These clothes aren’t concerned with attracting a crowd (though onlookers seem to gather naturally). Instead, the capsule is all about archetypes: the type of time-honoured silhouettes that endure well beyond a seasonal trend cycle.
After "The Handmaid's Tale": O-T Fagbenle Talks Artistry & Keeping Hope Alive

1 month ago | sharpmagazine.com | Cormac Newman

O-T Fagbenle defies categorization. He’s perhaps best known for his role as Luke in The Handmaid’s Tale, though the actor has taken on many titles since his 2017 breakout. In Showtime’s The First Lady, he was President Barack Obama opposite Viola Davis; shortly after, he moved into Marvel with a role in 2021’s Black Widow.

The crisp air of the changing season is the golden opportunity to work leather into your wardrobe. Whether it’s a statement pair of shorts, an alligator-strap watch, or a new wallet, the Spring/Summer 2025 runways highlighted fresh, wearable takes on leather, proving its versatility for any look. Cut from premium grained leather in a cool shade of olive green, Acne Studios’ leather trousers show just how versatile the material can be.

“CHANEL has a timeless legacy, and that is always something I can get behind,” says Grammy-winning rapper Kendrick Lamar. He dons a pair of jet-black frames, eyes covered by smoky, tinted lenses; the shades are impossibly chic, embellished with shiny metallic studs and gold bands on either side.
Celebrate Spring in Style With the Louis Vuitton Golf Capsule

1 month ago | sharpmagazine.com | Cormac Newman

Golf seems to get more popular every year. Per CBS Sports, the 2025 Masters peaked at a staggering 19.5 million viewers — that’s the highest total in eight years. Whether you’re intrigued by the course or content to hang in the clubhouse, golfing culture offers one aspect that’s guaranteed to please: style. Defined by pastels and polos, the clean-cut aesthetic is a welcome reprieve from heavy winter coats and dark palettes (and these days, we’ll take all the light we can get).

1 month ago | sharpmagazine.com | Cormac Newman

From April 10th to May 1st, 2025, “Andy Warhol: Factory Made” will light up Toronto’s Taglialatella Gallery: a chic, contemporary space perched in the centre of Yorkville. When I speak to Alan Ganev, managing partner at Taglialatella, he’s in the thick of it: forty works — including prints, textiles, and a shiny silver wig — have just arrived from New York, where the travelling exhibition debuted last month. Gearing up for its next act in Canada’s largest city, the exhibition promises to impress.
