Eiza González on Style, Self-Care, and Prada’s Milan Fashion Week Show

By avi maxwel / in , , , , , , , , /

To simply call Eiza González a Hollywood actress would be an understatement—even outside of her chosen industry, she’s become a familiar face. Not only is she the first-ever Latina to be named a North American ambassador for Bulgari, but earlier this year, she announced a partnership with tequila brand Casa Azul. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the stunning Baby Driver and I Care a Lot actress is also a fixture at high fashion runway shows. Specifically, we caught up with her at Prada’s spring/summer 2024 show in Milan, where González paired a black woven cropped halter top with a sleek black maxi skirt, and accessorized with a black Prada Arqué leather shoulder bag, naturally. The show itself featured ethereal, sheer dresses, metallic fringe skirts, and rugged leather—a juxtaposition González enjoys and sees reflected in her own style. Below, more from González about her go-to looks, how she practices self-care, and her thoughts on fashion week in 2023.

How did you prep for the Prada SS24 show?

I always like to work out before my day starts, especially if I’m battling jet lag—it’s the best depuffing secret in the world. I do a 10-minute HIIT workout, running

By avi maxwel / in , , , , , /

The sun is out, the birds are chirping, and your schedule is finally clearing up with classes out for the summer. You can ditch the school uniform and shove your sweatpants into the back of your closet thanks to swimsuit season being right around the corner — so yeah, it’s basically the best time of year. In search of summer inspo for pool parties, seaside hangs, and grad trips? We’ve rounded up the biggest 2023 summer fashion trends to cop in the days ahead.

Designers have shown love to see-through fabrics, outfitting your favorite celebs in the naked dress trend for plenty of red carpets (and FYI, you don’t have to *actually* be naked to try styling some breezy, sheer pieces). Or for a chill day, the “just left pilates” vibe that’s a favorite of Addison Rae and Kendall Jenner is the lovechild of balletcore and athleisure — core pieces of the niche style include workout onesies, stretchy athletic headbands, and pleated tennis skirts.

And if you’re looking for ‘fit inspo for fancier occasions, try out ’70s trends like sparkly lurex and flare jeans that are back in full force. Whether you’re fully living for the grungy Daisy Jones vibes

MILAN — What are we really looking at when we look at a fashion show?

Images of runway collections are universally available online. Live streams can make it feel as if you’re in the room. But what are we really seeing? How are we supposed to evaluate what we’re seeing?

Runway shows have gotten heavy with ideas. Designers will name-drop art, commerce, capitalism, politics, obscure historic figures — you name it — backstage, and it is usually impossible to make the connection between a designer’s stated inspirations and what you see in the clothes. TikTok teaches us to look at fashion shows for styling ideas or source material for dupes (the extremely online term for cheap knockoffs). We are encouraged to scour through looks for red-carpet contenders. Or we look to runways to give us the next “trend” — which is really just a shorthand these days for “Can you believe some people are actually wearing this?”

And as
