Harper’s Bazaar recently deemed the neck scarf Kendall Jenner wore in her pre-Oscars appearance an “elegant styling trick” rather than calling it by its proper name: the dupatta. Bella Hadid and Gracie Abrams donned red carpet looks with the same scarf, along with cropped blouses and long skirts — both of which were obvious replications […]
Gen Z has been described as “chronically online” — a reputation fueled as much by its actual screen time as by its tendency to make countless memes about it.
