CNN —If Halloween had a fashion handbook, the party scene from the 2004 classic “Mean Girls” would take up a whole chapter. Paramount+/ImdbIn the two decades since “Mean Girls,” came out, the Halloween costume spectrum has filled with more choice — and a lot of creativity. Dressing up sexy for Halloween has been going on for decades, but more people also seem to be embracing alternative aesthetics for the season. Heidi Klum is one of the celebrities flipping the script on dressing for Halloween in recent years. The model is seen here in her 2022 Halloween costume - a worm.

There are many commemorations that mark important milestones for queer people and their allies: Pride Month, LGBTQ History Month, Lesbian Visibility Week and Transgender Day of Remembrance, among many others. For celebrities and others in the public spotlight though, coming out also means sharing their sexuality or gender identity with millions of people around the world. Here are a few of the people who have come out so far in 2024.

☆ I’m 36 — when do I have to give up crop tops?
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-01 | by ( Jacqui Palumbo | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +6 min

CNN —As a pre-teen in Y2K, the (small) shadows of crop tops loomed large. In a decade when unforgiving low-rise jeans were the norm — and criticism over women’s bodies perfunctory — crop tops were not casual, easy wear; any softness of the torso was considered an aberration. Now that I’m 36, crop tops have become an unlikely staple in my wardrobe, and I’m reluctant to let them go. Can I still wear crop tops in my forties? I can also keep wearing crop tops for as long as I feel like it — after all, whenever I see a woman a generation ahead of me owning her personal style and at ease with herself, it gives me something to aspire to.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has defended his "dad bod." Having more body fat is actually helpful as a quarterback, which is the case for many sports. Reacting to a viral shirtless photo of himself, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback defended his "dad bod" in an interview with Time magazine for the 2024 Time 100. "I definitely have the dad bod a little bit," Mahomes, 28, said. Having higher body fat doesn't mean Mahomes is lacking explosive power and strength in his muscles, even if they're a bit less visible.

☆ Look of the Week: Billie Piper and the enduring glamour of the headscarf

Editor’s Note: Featuring the good, the bad and the ugly, ‘Look of the Week’ is a regular series dedicated to unpacking the most talked about outfit of the last seven days. CNN —If it wasn’t for the fact she was signing autographs outside the CBS studio in New York, many would have thought Billie Piper was attempting to go unnoticed. Wrapped, folded or tied under the chin; the headscarf is perhaps one of the most diverse — and historic — accessories in fashion’s arsenal. The same day, Julia Fox was spotted in another headscarf — styled with her Velveeta cheese curls and chunky boots. Sewn under the chin with the corners laid flat like a collar, each was etched with a different hairstyle.

CNN —Julia Fox’s press tour for her tell-all memoir “Down the Drain” has been in full swing this month, which means ample opportunity for the actor, model and newly christened author to go full on, well, Julia Fox. But on Tuesday, Fox stepped out in London in a look that can’t be overlooked: a literal plastic dry-cleaning bag, held up by a loop around her neck like a halter dress. Fox paired the garment bag with what appears to be elastic-waist shorts, J.Lo-worthy stiletto knee-high boots and a structured purse, all in cream. Julia Fox does dry-cleancore. Whatever the reasoning behind Fox’s latest head-turning moment, it fits the old adage that a model could still look good in a brown paper bag.

Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, was booted from Skechers’ corporate offices in Los Angeles on Wednesday after he showed up uninvited and unannounced, the company said. In a statement, the shoemaker said two executives escorted Ye and others from the company’s offices following a brief conversation and after he “engaged in unauthorized filming.”“Skechers is not considering and has no intention of working with West,” the company said, adding that it condemned recent antisemitic comments that prompted a backlash among companies that had business deals with the artist.

Rachpoot / Bauer-Griffin/GC ImagesRepresentatives for Ye, who has spoken publicly about his mental health issues and has a history of posting erratically online, did not immediately respond to requests for comment. These actions in LA are disgusting and should be condemned."
