As much as Who What Wear loves covering fashion girls’ every style moment, that doesn’t mean we don’t love to highlight intriguing menswear looks too. Remember our coverage of the most stylish fashion boys at the Emmys? Sadly, Timothée Chalamet wasn’t at the event, where Joe Keery and Milo Ventimiglia topped our list—but Chalamet more than made up for it with his latest outfit.
Attending the premiere of his new movie, A Beautiful Boy, at the San Sebastian International Film Festival in Spain, Chalamet wore a beautiful Alexander McQueen floral-embellished suit, but we immediately zeroed in on his sneakers. His chunky Alexander McQueen Runner Sneakers ($590) nail the “ugly” shoe trend and are a refreshing change from the requisite red carpet loafers. Scroll down to see his look and shop the women’s versions of the shoes for yourself.

As any true fashion girl like yourself understands, knowing the origin of your favorite trends makes wearing them all the more gratifying. And there’s arguably no bigger trend right now than leggings. We’re all well aware of the fashion cycle—everything comes back again. (Just take a look at the recent revivals of ’70s, ’90s, 2000s, and now ’80s trends.) But when it comes to leggings, it turns out they’ve been “coming back” for centuries. While researching the history of leggings, we were surprised to discover that the origin of the trend dates way back to the 14th century, and men were actually the first to wear them. But since the mid-20th century, leggings have been a closet staple for It girls and others who love them.
Given their lengthy tenure, we decided to take an in-depth look into the storied history of the legging craze, which was largely dictated by celebrities then just as it is today. (We’re looking at you, Gigi.)
Keep scrolling to get all the fascinating facts about the seven-centuries-long history of leggings and shop pairs inspired by each time period.
Michael B. Jordan is a muscular monster in a brand new poster for Creed II.
The jacked actor, who will reprise his role as Apollo Creed’s son in the forthcoming Rocky installment, kneels a boxing ring and screams to the heavens in the stunning new image.
It was posted by the movie’s official Twitter account with a powerful statement: “Fight for your destiny one round at a time.”
The poster comes ahead of Wednesday’s hotly-anticipated release of a new trailer for the Creed sequel. The preview will hopefully show more brawling between Adonis Johnson and Vitor Drago (Florian Munteanu), the son of Russian power puncher Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren). We may even be treated to an appearance from Cuff and Link.
Watch the first trailer below:
Creed II also starts Sylvester Stallone, Tessa Thompson, Wood Harris, Russell Hornsby,Andre Ward and Phylicia Rashad. Catch in theaters November 21, 2018.
FIFA 19 comes out today on early access and gets a widespread release this Friday. Building on last year’s edition,itbrings back the same great gameplay that’s a hallmark of the series
The gamealso adds new and different game modes, and those give players good reason to upgrade.
FIFA 19 gameplay has been well-honed over decades of annual releases. It’s easy to complain that a game is stale when it doesn’t change from year to year. That may actually be the secret to FIFA’s success; anyone who’s played before can easily pick it back up and feel competent after just one half.
Make no mistake, FIFA 19 still rewards its legions of skillful players but the perpetually familiar feel of FIFA will always be one of its greatest assets. FIFA 19 is tuned up, polished, and has minor tweaks to its gameplay. As always, anything can happen in a head-to-head match.
To offset the largely unchanged gameplay, the FIFA franchise instead looks to game modes to keep things interesting. After major improvements to Ultimate Team, deeper complexity in Career Mode and the addition of the story-based The Journey campaign in previous iterations, FIFA 19 has set its sights on improving the most overlooked game mode of all; Kick Off.
Yup, the main mode, the one to jump into when friends are around before or after a night of drinking, Kick Off in FIFA 19 kicks all kinds of ass. That’s mainly because a quick game is now customizable with House Rules. Don’t want to play with penalties? Turn ‘em off.
Only want to take long-range shots? Start winding up from outside the box. It’s crazy and different and insanely fun to play. It might be the best reason to own four controllers for your console of choice. The biggest downside—and this boggles the mind—is that you can’t play it online.
That wildly stupid choice aside (yeah yeah, EA has to save something for FIFA 20) this year’s FIFA really is an excellent game and a must-have for anyone who enjoys a damn fine sports simulator and fierce competition.
It’s out now for those who pre-ordered the Champion or Ultimate edition. Everyone else can grab it when it’s widely released on PS4, Xbox One, PC and Nintendo Switch on Friday, September 28th .
Everyday carry pocket knives are as much a personal fashion accessory as a utilitarian tool, and Deejo is here to prove it.
The French company is bringing their eye-catching bespoke knives to the United States for the first time through a slick online portal.
Start by selecting a 15-gram, 27-gram or 37-gram weight and a mirror, grey or black titanium finish for the four-inch stainless steel blade.
Building the handle offers further opportunities for customization. Choose between five different species of exotic woods, eight different colors of plastic, or a geometric carbon fiber pattern. A “Naked” construction that continues the finish of the blade is also available for those seeking a clean, simple aesthetic.
The “Tattoo” design element fulfills Deejo’s promise of unparalleled personalization. Over 75 different patterns can be engraved into the foldable blade, from a pinup girl to a menacing calavera-style skull..
Founder Luc Foin told Maxim more about Deejo’s mission:
“No one needs a wristwatch when the time is on your phone screen, but people wear a watch because it says something about them and their lifestyle,” Foin said.
“Deejo is the same—an accessory that allows you to enjoy the ease of a pocket knife with the style that comes with your own personal Deejo.”
And if you’re into custom blades, the prices are dirt cheap–ranging from $29 to $80 depending on the options chosen.
Scroll through different examples in the gallery above, and head to Deejo.com to build your own custom pocket knife.
The American automotive behemoth’s Turkish production base, Ford Otosan, unveiled the F-Vision Future Truck concept at the IAA Commercial Vehicle Show in Germany last week.
It may not have the Tesla Semi’s “Mad Max” mode, but its eye-catching lines and design take cues from Marvel superheroes.
The F-Vision was inspired by Marvel characters, the automaker said, and the way they change and adapt to environments. The motif is most present in the glass line, which descends and increases the field of view for an operator inside the cab.
The semi’s adaptable nature also comes with the F-Vision front face. Ford said an “interactive front end” can display different designs and communication methods, but didn’t go into further detail.
The F-Vision will have Level 4 autonomous driving capability, meaning that it will be able to make trips without any human intervention. In self-driving mode, the windshield will blend into the body to make the semi’s shape even more aerodynamic.
Ford didn’t release any details about power output, top speed or other technical specifications of their first-ever concept truck. It was revealed alongside the 492-horsepower F-Max tractor-trailer, which won the 2019 International Truck of the Year Award at the IAA event.
The Ford F-Max.
Take a closer look at the Ford F-Vision in the gallery above.
Details of the plot are still under wraps, but what we do know is that the movie will focus on Harley Quinn as she pulls together a team of superheroes—including Huntress, Renee Montoya, and Black Canary, and Cassandra Cain—to go up against a villain who still remains unnamed.
Plus, we know this won’t be aimed at kids, because Robbie confirmed it’ll have an R-rating.
Though no other casting has been announced yet, The Hollywood Reporter says A Wrinkle in Time‘s Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Underground‘s Jurnee Smolett-Bell, and Hidden Figures star Janelle Monae are some of the actresses being considered to play Black Canary, and for Huntress, the studio is testing The Leftovers‘ Margaret Qualley, 10 Cloverfield Lane‘s Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and Cristin Milioti from How I Met Your Mother.
Birds of Prey starts shooting in 2019 and will be directed by Cathy Yan. The script was written by Christina Hodson, making it a fully female-centric motion picture all around—though it will have a “much smaller budget” than other DC films.
In May 2018 Robbie told Collider in an interview that it was crucial for the film to have “a female director to tell that story,” and that it’s important to give a woman “the chance to do big budget stuff.” Luckily, all of that is finally happening.
