Terrence McDermott barely has a finger to spare. Each day, the 26-year-old cigar shop assistant manager in Phoenix plops silver rings onto nine of his 10 fingers. His clinky assortment includes a turquoise signet, a ring inspired by late rapper MF Doom and a pinkie ring that he tried on and couldn’t pry off, so he bought it. He’s not yet married, so his sole free digit is his left ring finger.

To collect vintage clothes is to know that one day, you’ll come across a shirt that will send you into an existential spiral. For me, that moment came last month, as I was tooling around eBay in search of aged band tees. The very same Green Day “American Idiot” shirt that I bought new as a sneering tween was now being sold as “vintage” for a not insignificant sum of $100. To see your childhood resold as vintage—could anything make you feel older than that? Mind you, I’m just 32.

George Santos exhibited a distinct fashion sense during his months in Congress. Photo: Jabin Botsford/Getty ImagesGeorge Santos knew how to make an exit. “The hell with this place,” the New York Republican declared to a scrum of reporters after his expulsion Friday from the House over allegations that he stole money from his own campaign and committed other misdeeds. He was just the sixth House member expelled and the first who wasn’t a convicted felon or a supporter of the Confederacy.

More Netflix viewers watched dubbed versions of the South Korean drama “Squid Game” than subtitled versions. WSJ met one of the show’s English-language voice actors during its first season to see how dubbing foreign content is fueling the streaming giant’s growth. Photo Illustration: Sharon ShiWhen producers set out to adapt the megahit South Korean thriller “Squid Game” into a Netflix reality show, they hewed close to the sinister source material. So is the barbaric game of “red light, green light.” As are the ubiquitous masked guards and the pine-green tracksuits. Even the $4.56 million prize pot on “Squid Game: The Challenge,” which is said to be the biggest reality TV show prize in history, echoes the original’s 45.6 billion won.

Louis Vuitton’s mammoth monogram luggage already sells for tens of thousands of dollars on the resale market. But you know what makes a trunk even more valuable? If it was previously owned by Pharrell Williams. Late last year, the Grammy winner and men’s creative director of Louis Vuitton added to his already jammed schedule by opening Joopiter, his very own auction house.

What exactly does Daniel Ricciardo know about making clothes? The 34-year-old Australian Formula 1 driver is the sport’s affable golden retriever. He has a smile that sparkles like a set of headlights and is absolutely the driver who you’d most want to have a beer with. Despite being in the midst of a middling season for the AlphaTauri team, Ricciardo is universally held up as one of the sport’s most recognized—and relatable—faces.

The United Auto Workers union struck a landmark series of deals with some of the nation’s largest automakers in recent weeks. Photo: Rebecca Cook/ReutersA few weeks into the United Auto Workers strike, the union’s straight-shooting president, Shawn Fain, appeared on a video livestream to update his members on the progress of negotiations.

A FEW YEARS into the existence of his Los Angeles fashion brand, Fear of God, designer Jerry Lorenzo screenprinted the nascent label’s name on vintage rock tees from a raucous roster of headbanging bands—Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, Mötley Crüe. But when he’s working at his spartan office in downtown Los Angeles, Lorenzo throws on “easy listening, soft-rock vibes,” like soulful singer Anita Baker and even the elevator-music godfather Kenny G.

On stage and in magazine spreads, rappers have waged a Cold War about who could dress the flyest, wear the most outré thing, push the envelope the furthest. And they backed it up on their songs, bragging endlessly about outdressing everyone and weaving designer name after designer name into their rhymes.

No, not if Victor Wembanyama, the 7-foot-4 French sensation, would be the No. But what would the most-hyped basketball prodigy since LeBron James wear to his coronation?
