Bridgerton Season 2 Is All New, but Spoiler Alert: It Still Comes With the Regencycore Costumes You Love
Fans of Netflix's Bridgerton (and isn't everyone a fan?) are getting their first glimpse at the second season of romance and drama, and all the Regency-era costumes that go with it. Bridgerton's second season will follow Daphne's brother Anthony (Jonathan Bailey) as he sets out to find a wife, and introduces a new character, Kate Sharma (played by Simone Ashley), who makes an appearance in the show's latest teaser in an embellished, mint-hued evening gown and tiara.
Costume designer Ellen Mirojnick, who crafted the wardrobe from scratch for the first season, returned to dress the show's new characters. With her expertise and careful attention to detail, the gowns are likely to set off another #regencycore trend.
Here, take a look at the first stills from the show, featuring the gorgeous costumes.
Neat Idea: Ella Emhoff Makes Lug-Sole Platform Oxfords Work For a Wedding
When Ella Emhoff and boyfriend Sam Hine attended a fall wedding, they were sure to do it in style. We're really not surprised. The duo, who also stepped out during Fashion Week (seeing as Ella's a model and designer and Hine works for GQ), both wore their own takes on a pantsuit. Ella's came bejeweled with Miu Miu crystals - her embellished cropped blazer retails for almost $3K, and her bag is from the brand, too - while Hine stuck with accoutrements such as a classic bow tie and pearl drop earrings.
Our favorite accessories of all, however, were Ella's studded black oxfords that came with a lug-sole tread platform. She could have worn the shoes with casual jeans the day before, but the way they spiffed up her elegant separates came as a delightful surprise. It's also a reminder that heels are never a must, and comfort is key. Just as Ella showed us when wearing roomy Adidas by Stella McCartney trousers at her first-ever Met Gala, chicness comes in all forms and isn't defined by any specific fashion rule. Ahead, see how Ella and Sam's outfits came together in perfect harmony, then shop Ella's essential pieces to get the look.
Meghan Markle Just Carried a Modern Iteration of Princess Diana's Most Iconic Purse
We all know by now that oftentimes royals - Meghan Markle in particular - dress with intention, and her recent sartorial nod to Princess Diana was no coincidence. As she promoted COVID-19 vaccine equity alongside Prince Harry at Global Citizen Live in New York, the Duchess subtly paid tribute to Diana through one accessory: her Dior bag.
The Lady D-Lite purse in Meghan's hand is a modern iteration of the Lady Dior, made famous by Diana in the late '90s. Originally called the Chouchou, the purse was gifted to Diana by the first lady of France at the time, Bernadette Chirac. Upon receiving, Diana carried it on numerous occasions, including at the Met Gala, which prompted the fashion house to rename the iconic purse Lady Dior.
While Meghan's choice honors Diana, her Lady D-Lite has her own touch: "DSSOS" monogrammed across the front in reference to her title. She paired the bag with a white Valentino shift dress featuring floral appliques, a long black coat draped over, as well as sleek black pumps. Ahead, get a side-by-side look at Meghan and Diana carrying their gorgeous Dior purses.
Lila Moss Makes a Positive Statement For People With Diabetes on the Fendi x Versace Runway
Kate Moss's daughter, 18-year-old Lila Moss, is making the runway rounds at Fashion Week. After opening the Richard Quinn show in London, she joined her mom along with a whole slew of iconic supermodels at the Versace by Fendi show in Milan. Walking for Fendi's portion of the "swap" event, she debuted a one-piece swimsuit with Kim Jones's interpretation of Versace's gold baroque pattern and signature safety pin. The look was complete with an ornate, logo covered blazer, matching tote bag, metallic shoes, purse, and jewels - and most importantly, Lila's Omnipod DASH, a tubeless insulin delivery pump, on her left thigh.
Lila has type 1 diabetes, which typically appears in adolescence and is a lifelong autoimmune disease. "I think not many people know that I have diabetes. It's not visible from the outside, so no one would really know just by looking at you," she explained to The Kit. But by deciding not to cover her pump, and displaying it proudly on the catwalk, she normalized the device for the community and showed up for representation in a big way.
Twitter users have applauded Moss across the platform. "Evidence for the gremlins out there that T1 diabetes is still not related to body size or lifestyle," one person wrote. Insulet, the company that makes Lila's pump, confirmed to POPSUGAR that this is an incredibly significant moment for visibility: "This device is one which the T1D community readily identifies and which may very well serve to increase public awareness of and reduce stigma of diabetes," Insulet stated.
Ahead, you can read some supportive comments, see all angles of Lila and mom Kate make their appearance on the runway, then re-watch the livestream of the full "Fendace" experience.

The 17 Coats Worth Wearing in 2021
Fashion lovers know that, come winter, their coat is the statement-making piece of their outfit. You could be wearing couture or pajamas, but the coat speaks first, and it's so important to get right. We like to have a few different options, especially if we feel like changing up our styles. When the temperature dips, we stock up on coats, and these are the 17 we like this year.
So, what exactly are the styles we'll be wearing this year? Right now, we're into classic buttoned shapes, a little fringe moment, and ultrawarm puffer coats for when the temperature dips. When it comes to coats, we like neutrals because they're so easy to pair with a bunch of different outfits, but we're the first to admit that sometimes a pop of color is fun. Start the new year with your best coat forward.
