Dolce & Gabbana saluted women around the world at its fall/winter 2015 show, which featured babies, children and a pregnant model on the runway to celebrate the heart of all families: mothers.

The Italian brand’s designers, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, paid tribute to motherhood in its “Viva la Mamma” runway presentation. Eleven models walked with their own children while donning the collection’s feminine, colorful, rose-covered silk dresses and skirts. The children in the show also wore designs from the label — matching dresses for the girls and suits for the boys.

Pregnant model and Dolce & Gabbana muse Bianca Balti (she’s the brand’s Light Blue ambassador) also walked in the show, showing off her six-month baby bump in a blush-colored dress. The idea of celebrating family on the runway isn’t new for the brand. Its men’s collection also paid homage to relatives spending time together.

And moms and babies weren’t the only models to hit the Dolce & Gabbana runway. Supermodels Karlie Kloss and Gigi Hadid strutted alongside the children and snapped some super-cute photos backstage.

Sleeping on the Job? Victoria Beckham's New Fall Lookbook Features Models Passed Out

Victoria Beckham is known for creating designs with structured-yet-feminine silhouettes, classic fabrics, bold colors and fresh prints. Her fall 2015 diffusion line (Victoria, Victoria Beckham) features all of those things, but the models showing off the pieces don’t look too excited about it. To be more specific, some of them appear to be totally zonked out.

Victoria Beckham Fall 2015 campaignVictoria Beckham

In a bizarre artistic (?) choice by the label, the willowy women model the clothing in a number of positions — some lying flat on the floor, others draped over furniture or slumped over in a corner. One model even looks like she’s about to be exorcised. The unique body positions seem to be a stark contrast to the cheery clothes — from bold pops of pink and blue to fun leopard prints — which range in price from $350 to $1,995.

“This is statement dressing made easy,” the press release for the collection reads. “Attitude is applied, stripped down and made sophisticated creating a wearable collection that continues to evolve with its customer.”

Beckham shared one of her favorite looks from the collection on Twitter, showing a more awake model in a red wrap dress. (The tulips coming from the mailbox, however, seem to be an interesting choice for a lookbook showcasing fall clothes.)

Renée Zellweger Debuts New Bangs at Paris Fashion Week: See Her Chic Look!

The Paris Fashion Week surprises keep coming. We weren’t expecting Renée Zellweger to make an appearance, but we’re glad she did. And not only did she wear the perfect outfit — she also debuted a new do!

Renée ZellwegerPascal Le Segretain/Getty

The Oscar-winning actress, 45, attended the Miu Miu show sporting a French-girl cool beauty look: new wispy fringe, a textured top knot and minimal makeup. Zellweger’s outfit was also very Parisian chic. The star wore a bright red coat over a black dress with lace detail, plus, nude pumps and a small top-handle purse. She posed for pictures with actress Odeya Rush (The Giver) before joining the star-studded front row and sitting next to French actress Léa Seydoux. She also added a pair of oversize black sunglasses as she stopped for photos outside of the event.

Zellweger turned heads in October when she walked the red carpet at Elle‘s Women in Hollywood Awards with a new look that sparked social media chatter.

But the actress embraced the social media comments and opened up to PEOPLE about feeling happy and healthy in her “more fulfilling life.”

“My friends say that I look peaceful. I am healthy,” Zellweger told PEOPLE in an exclusive statement in October. “For a long time I wasn’t doing such a good job with that. I took on a schedule that is not realistically sustainable and didn’t allow for taking care of myself.”

She also added that change is just a natural part of aging: “Perhaps I look different. Who doesn’t as they get older?!” she said. “But I am different. I’m happy.”

Lindsay Lohan Launches Collection for Lavish Alice: She’s baaaack! From the star who brought you 6126 leggings, Lohan has now designed a capsule collection for the British Brand, Lavish Alice. It’s affordable, very trendy and features a lot of fringe and tassels. Kylie Jenner, Solange Knowles, Jamie Chung — all stars we can see wearing the pieces from Lohan’s line. (Lohan’s other fashion credits include a stint as artistic advisor for Emanuel Ungaro, which included a major runway moment, and a menswear line at PacSun.)

Gisele Bündchen Continues to Sizzle for Stuart Weitzman: The supermodel fronts the footwear label’s Fall 2015 campaign, wearing the brand’s super-high, super-sexy AllLegs boots. And she also flashes her bare butt in the process.

“I could not have picked a better pair of legs than Gisele’s to show off such a sexy boot,” Weitzman said in a statement. “She defines the term AllLegs and inspired its name.”

Rihanna Designs Temporary Tattoos: Your summer is about to get a whole lot better. The singer collaborated with star-loved jewelry designer Jacquie Aiche on a line of edgy temporary tattoos that will definitely turn heads at the beach or any music festival on your social calendar. They retail for $27. (Note: You can finally wear a wash off body chain.)

“Creating the tattoos was a really collaborative process between Rihanna and myself, which we feel is so evident in the final designs,” Aiche shared. “There are gothic tattoos, but then we mixed in lots of daintier pieces for layering that are reminiscent of the way we stack our jewelry. The process was so much fun we decided to make another round, as well. Something a little softer and sexier with some unexpected inspiration.”

Fifth Harmony Takes Us Behind the Scenes of Their First Candie's Campaign!

How do you top your own Barbie dolls? With an equally eye-catching ad campaign. The musical group is following in the well-heeled footsteps of former Candie’s girls (including Britney Spears, Vanessa Hudgens, Lea Michele, Bella Thorne), and they invited us to the shoot to watch them pose (and talk about all things fashion).

Even though the stars love to coordinate their onstage and red carpet styles, off-duty, they all have their own individuality. “I’m a little bit more sporty,”  Dinah-Jane Hansen tells PEOPLE. “Mani [Normani] loves sparkles and glam, Camila is a little bit more preppy and loves her bows, Lauren has more of a rocker style and Ally is girly and loves being versatile.”

Fifth HarmonyCourtesy of Candie’s

And they’ve learned to translate their personality into their group looks. “We might all be in black dresses but our stylist [Bobby Wesley] will add a bow for Camila, or a black choker for me, some sparkle for Normani,” Lauren Jauregui says. “The matching outfits look great and we get to keep our individual style.” (Says Camilla Cabello, “Whether it’s a texture or a print, we wear different aspects of it to reflect it in different ways.”)

Fifth HarmonyCourtesy of Candie’s

But surely, one girl in the group must have the most-raided closet — and they all agree it’s Normani, who laughs off the compliment: “If I gave everyone my advice we’d all be in sparkles!” she says. “The girls all have their own individual stylees. We help each other out sometimes but we’re pretty independent when it comes to our style and looks. I’m just known in the group for loving fashion. It’s a passion of mine.”

RELATED PHOTOS: Celebrities With Best Friend Tattoos

Even with all their style experience, the Candie’s campaign is a big one for them. “It’s so cool!” Ally says. “I’ve seen so many amazing artists and actors be a part of this campaign. I especially watched Hayden Panettiere, Hilary Duff, Britney Spears, so it’s such an honor for me to be a part of a Candie’s campaign. For me, it really encourages young girls to be themselves.”

Speaking of closet raids — anything the girls wanted to take from set? Camila had her eye on a few of the frocks. “Dresses are just so easy. They make you feel dressed up and girly without much effort,” she says.

Candie’s is sold exclusively at Kohl’s and the styles seen on Fifth Harmony will be available in July.

Donatella Versace's Givenchy Ads Are Here (and They're Fabulous!)

What’s trending this fall? High-fashion campaigns starring as many A-list celebrities as possible. First, Marc Jacobs introduced one famous (and slightly unexpected) face after another. And now Riccardo Tisci, Givenchy’s creative director, just unveiled his Fall 2015 campaign featuring Donatella Versace (yes, the designer behind the Versace dynasty — a.k.a. Tisci’s competition!), along with Victor Cruz and Candice Swanepoel (who’s nearly unrecognizable in the new ad thanks to her faux face piercings — a key accessory in the label’s runway show earlier this year).

Riccardo Tisci InstagramCourtesy Riccardo Tisci

The designer announced in April that he would be featuring his “ultimate icon,” Donatella, by releasing a snap shot of their profiles (above). And yesterday he finally unveiled the two finished campaign photos. In one, the designer is wearing a fit-and-flare jacket, plus a skirt, and in the second she’s clad in a baroque blazer featuring a fitted (and see-through) peplum corset.

Donatella responded to her campaign, captioning the photo, “I believe in breaking rules. Riccardo Tisci is extremely talented and above all my dear friend. We are family. I want to get rid of the old system, work together, support each other and make fashion a true global community.”

RELATED PHOTOS: Last Night’s Look: Love It or Leave It?

Earlier today, Tisci posted a photo (and steamy behind-the-scenes video!) of two more fall ads, one with fashion All-star (oh, and footballer) Cruz, calling him the “G Man.” And another featuring models Swanepoel, Stella Lucia and Aliz Menyhert which he calls his “Victorian G Gang,” dressed in drapey, dresses and a plethora of gum-drop sized faux facial piercings.

Marc Jacobs has also been slowly unveiling his fall muses on Instagram (which include the likes of Cher, Willow Smith, Debi Mazar, Anthony Kiedis and more). He explained he’s choosing friends who “evoke a sense of intrigue and inspiration and collectively provoke a true consideration for individuality.”

Tis the season for a ton of fall fashion ads. There’s Marc Jacobs’s numerous muses, Donatella Versace’s Givenchy collaboration and, now, the lingerie giant La Perla just revealed its latest campaign star — 45-year-old modeling vet, Naomi Campbell (who, no surprise, looks stunning). Plus, check out the new family-focused Dolce and Gabbana ads and more!

Campbell books just as many gigs as models half her age. The star recently celebrated a major runway show-stopping moment at the co-ed Givenchy Paris fashion show (wearing a G-string!), and now she’s starring in a sexy new ad campaign for La Perla’s Made to Measure Atelier collection, making it really hard to tell if it’s 1990 or 2015.

The leggy legend models the “Anchor” one-piece (just seen on the two industry youngsters, Gigi and Bella Hadid on the cover of V Magazine last week) and the “Impossible Lace” featuring a long vest with see-through overlay. The ads were shot by fashion photographers Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott (yep, the same duo who shot these sultry shoot in W magazine unveiled yesterday).

Next up, is Dolce & Gabbana’s new Winter 2016 campaign that matches their “Viva la Mamma” runway presentation featuring the “dgmamma” and “dgfamily” (as described by Stefano Gabbana on Instagram). There’s adorable mommy-and-me matching moments in colorful prints. Models eating full plates of spaghetti. And of course, an ad with models wearing Dolce & Gabbana’s iconic black lace.

Instagram Photo

There are also additional photos featuring selfie-taking models clad in the latest accessories, like jewel and fur-encrusted tiara headphones and handbags featuring a very prominent man-and-wife portrayal of family — an issue that caused controversy earlier this year. In March, the designers expressed controversial statements about gay parents, explaining that they oppose gay adoptions and are against “chemical offsprings and rented uterus.”

Lastly, the plus-size brand Marina Rinaldi pulled Oscar-winner Patricia Arquette for its fall 2016 campaign photographed by Bruce Weber, and according to WWD the actress has been signed with the brand for two seasons. “What I love about Marina Rinaldi is how much they care about women, about making them all feel beautiful, powerful, confident,” Arquette told WWD.”When it comes to self acceptance and body consciousness, most women still feel insecure and struggle to correspond to a stereotyped kind of beauty. Marina Rinaldi — through a straightforward communication strategy and through extraordinary fashion collections — helps all women believe in themselves and in the individual beauty each of them possesses. I’m proud I’ve been offered the chance to add my voice to the statement ‘Women Are Back.'”

Alli Simpson, Stella Hudgens and Noah Cyrus are heading back to school in style for Mudd’s newest ad campaign for fall, and we’ve got the exclusive scoop (and behind-the-scene shots) from the shoot. (It almost makes us want to go buy Trapper-Keepers.)

Mudd campaign and BTS photos of Noah Cyrus, Stella Hudgens, Alli SimpsonCourtesy Mudd

The trio, who are the younger siblings of some of your fave celebs (Alli is 17, Stella is 19 and Noah is 15) teamed up with social media sensations Jack Gilinsky and Jack Johnson (aka “Jack and Jack”) and Sam Wilkinson (yes, again!) to stage a little after-class hangout and showcase the brand’s clothes. We chatted all things style with the stars about their time on set, style secrets they’ve received from their fashion-forward older siblings and how their sense of style has evolved since stepping into the spotlight, below!

Describe your style in three words.
Alli: Classic, feminine and free.
Stella: Eclectic, different and unique.
Noah: Easy, indie and edgy.

Mudd campaign and BTS photos of Noah Cyrus, Stella Hudgens, Alli SimpsonCourtesy Mudd

How has your style changed since stepping into the spotlight?
Alli: I feel like my style progresses a lot and changes all the time as you get older, and I feel like I am taking more fashion risks as I get older.
Stella: I think my style has progressed — it’s a little more sophisticated and edgy.
Noah: As I’ve gotten older, I’ve started to dress older and not like a little girl anymore.

Mudd campaign and BTS photos of Noah Cyrus, Stella Hudgens, Alli SimpsonCourtesy Mudd

What’s the best piece of style advice your siblings (Cody Simpson, Vanessa Hudgens and Miley Cyrus) have given you?
Alli: Cody is definitely into fashion and he loves to accessorize! Like, he almost wears as many rings as I do. He’s all into his rock star look right now, and he’s always wearing hats and so am I. So, I think we definitely have that in common. We have this place (at home) where there are so many hats and we just share them. His style advice is just be yourself and definitely step out — we’re in the spotlight and have this chance to take risks and do what [we] want with fashion.
Stella: Vanessa and I share a closet and are always going back and forth helping each other get dressed. I usually don’t leave the house without her opinion and vice versa.
Noah: The best style advice my sister has given me is be yourself and wear what you want to wear, and don’t care what other people are going to say about it. Just wear whatever makes you feel happy.

Favorite piece from the collection? How would you style it?
Alli: The jean jacket! It’s just so comfortable but stylish.
Stella: I definitely would wear the blue sweater dress that I had on with a brown hat, it was really cute!
Noah: The jean shorts with some tights, leg warmers and cute boots.

Most memorable moment from the photo shoot? It looked like so much fun!
Alli: It was just so much fun in general. It’s so cool to all be back together.
Stella: It was fun hanging out on the bleachers, we had pom poms, which I was really excited about!
Jack J.: My favorite part about the Mudd shoots is really … the people. All of the girls are our homies and all the guys are obviously our homies. We grew up together. It’s awesome just being out here with our friends and playing football, of course.
Sammy W: Chilling with friends. It’s not like we’re actually (working) at a shoot.

Looks like we have another addition to our list of stunning Kendall Jenner modeling campaigns! The 19-year-old model stars in a series of sexy new ads for Calvin Klein Underwear’s Fall 2015 collection, which come out at the end of the month — but don’t worry, a few have been released early.

“It was super fun,” Jenner told WWD of shooting the line. “Every girl loves posing in her underwear. It’s always fun to do that.”

The brand is boldly calling the line of embroidered lace balconette bras, plunge-neck chemises and bodysuits “the original sexy” in the ads. The images show Jenner in one of those balconettes and a sporty mesh thong.

This is Jenner’s second global ad campaign for the brand. Her first for Calvin Klein Jeans launched in March with a big billboard on L.A.’s famous Sunset strip.

“It’s really humbling, and honestly, I am a pretty shy person, but being part of the Calvin campaign and seeing myself up there will be a dream come true,” she told V Magazine in April. “I might have to eat every night at the Chateau Marmont with that hanging over my shoulder. ‘Oh yeah, that little thing? I didn’t notice.’”

In the sexy series of black and white images, Jenner joins superstar model Joan Smalls (who appeared in a CK campaign back in 2012), Edita Vilkeviciute (who has worked with the line since 2009) and brand newbie Isabeli Fontana.

As with their last campaign, the brand is encouraging a call to action to fans of the line to photograph themselves in their CK undies along with the hashtag #mycalvins, something that Jenner herself has done on more than one occasion.

Will you hop on the #mycalvins bandwagon? What do you think of Kendall’s latest sexy campaign?

Eva Longoria Is Launching Her Own Clothing Collection (Did You Know She's an Avid Seamstress?)

Celebrity fashion lines are having a major moment right now. Reese Witherspoon wears her Draper James apparel everywhere, Blake Lively collaborates with designers for her lifestyle site Preserve  and the highly-anticipated Seven7 line from Melissa McCarthy is debuting this fall. And now there is another star designer on the horizon: Eva Longoria, who is launching a new apparel line Fall 2016.

Eva LongoriaAlexander Tamargo/Getty

Longoria’s yet-to-be-named collection is set to launch with a focus on apparel (dresses, work wear and casual sportswear) and later expand to include footwear, handbags and accessories.

“I have wanted to design my own collection for a long time and it is a real privilege to partner with Sunrise Brands who brings their expert experience in the apparel world,” the actress says in the press release. “I am excited to design a collection that will offer women versatility while evoking confidence, comfort, and a sense of glamor.” [Editor’s Note: Sunrise Brands is also the manufacturer behind McCarthy’s Seven7 line.]

RELATED PHOTOS: Last Night’s Look: Love It or Leave It?

And Longoria’s involvement with her line will be totally hands on —  she’s actually an accomplished seamstress (and could probably teach other hands-on designers, a.k.a. Witherspoon and Lively a thing or two).

“I have an industrial sewing machine in my house, and I’m so excited when they develop a new pedal. ‘Ooh, now I can do a chain stitch,’ ” she tells WWD, “People think I’m crazy.”

She explains that she started sewing at a young age with throw pillows and duvets before graduating to more advanced pieces like Halloween costumes and dresses for herself and friends. “It’s one of the things people don’t know about me. I sew.”

She adds that now is the perfect time to expand her passion into another business venture (she also works with JCPenney on a bedding line and has two fragrances, Eva by Eva Longoria and EVAmour), saying that “Before, I was just too busy.”

Pricing and retailers are still TBD, and a website is in the works.

“I always say you don’t need to spend a lot of money to look great,” Longoria tells WWD, so we’re anticipating a budget-friendly collection from the star.

Game of Thrones Star Gwendoline Christie Slays in a Whole New Way in Vivienne Westwood's Fall Ads

On-screen, Gwendoline Christie slays — quite literally — as Game of Thrones‘ Brienne of Tarth, one of the baddest women in Westeros. But in real life, she’s giving the word an entirely different meaning as the new face of Vivienne Westwood’s fall 2015 campaign.

Gwendoline Christie Game of Thrones Comic ConAnthony Harvey/Getty

For the campaign ads, which were lensed by photographer Juergen Teller, the actress poses in a series of haunting portraits — modeling a mix of punky plaids and dramatic cat eyeliner, all the while proving her stare is just as piercing as Brienne’s sword.

Gwendoline Christie for Vivienne WestwoodJuergen Teller

“I love the unisex theme of this collection,” Christie said in a statement. “It is so relevant for Vivienne Westwood to reassert their activist mind-set and create a collection that takes us beyond our current gender stereotypes with beauty and intelligence.”

It’s not the first time Christie has teamed up with the designer. Back in March, she made a surprise appearance on the runway for the label’s fall 2015 Paris Fashion Week show. “She is such an attractive woman,” said Westwood. “When I asked her to be in the show, as well as the campaign, we got to know each other, she is a really interesting woman.”

Between that Christie the Friendly Fashion Ghost shot and that Edward Munster Couture look, we’re really hoping there are more sci-fi/supernatural thrillers in her future.

If you thought you’ve seen all the the fall 2015 fashion campaigns, think again. (They’re basically infinite!) Now it’s time to play catch-up with more ads that were just released this week. Rihanna is launching a new scent, Karlie Kloss fronts two more brands (we’ve definitely lost count of her running tally this season), Kate Hudson poses with Michael Kors for a charity collaboration and even more fashion news you need to know.

Riri by RihannaRiri by Rihanna

We know Rihanna’s focusing on fashion (she has a new accessories collection called $CHOOL KIlls), but she’s also taking over the beauty realm. She announced on Instagram on Tuesday that a new fragrance called “RiRi” will launch soon. Judging by the ad alone (teased hair, pink voluminous top with matching gloves and pearl bracelets), we’d say the scent must be a sophisticated version of her other (edgier) fragrances, Nude and Rebelle. We also imagine this is what a Rihanna Barbie would look like.

It’s not even “throwback Thursday” yet, but Natalia Vodianova wins with the best fashion flashback of the week. The 33-year-old posted a split of her first Miss Sixty campaign from 14 years ago against her new ads this season. She captioned it, “Both i and #MissSixty has grown up in 14 years… S))) #iamaladynow”

In the first ad (that one on the bottom), she poses in a metallic tank top with acid-wash bootcut jeans and red leather peep-toe pumps. And for the latest campaign (top) — shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott and styled by Edward Enninful — she undergoes a much more mature makeover, posing in a ladylike lace veil headband with a romantic braided crown plait. The ad looks to be set in a romantic London garden. The one thing that hasn’t changed? That smoldering smize.

Kate Hudson and Michael KorsMichael Kors

Kate Hudson is joining up with her travel pal Michael Kors for his Watch Hunger Stop philanthropic campaign. They pose together modeling the two limited-edition Bradshaw watches (launching in October) of which every sale will give 100 children in need nutritious meals through the World Food Programme’s School Meals program. “As a mother, I can’t think of anything more important than raising a healthy and educated generation of children, and WFP’s School Meals Program is committed to exactly that,” says Kate about the collaboration. “This is a cause that I’m eager to be a part of because I believe we can all make a real and significant difference.”

The busiest model this season, Karlie Kloss, is at it again with two more ads under her belt. First, Marella’s Autumn 2015 campaign, posing in the brand’s comfy pink sweaters in beautiful blooming trees.

Her Joe Fresh campaign, however, gives off a little different (read: sexier) vibe. Kloss poses with Joan Smalls and two hot male models, Sean O’Pry and Andres Velencoso (hard day on set, we’re sure).

Flying solo this time (her photo shoots with husband Johannes Huebl are what #relationshipgoals are made of), Olivia Palermo teamed up with Canadian department store Holt Renfrew to launch its new online magazine coming this fall. The brand shared behind-the-scenes snaps of Palermo posing on set, and judging by that perfect transitional outfit (white summer dress with a plaid jacket and suede boots), she’s bringing her style A-game as usual.

First Balmain and now Topshop! Hadid is quickly moving from the “supermodel-in-training” title to actual supermodel, and has a brand-new campaign to prove it. The 20-year-old star is the new face of the British label’s fall/winter collection and models the new clothes in a series of ’60s-inspired images.

Dressed in furry coats, colorful sweaters and sleek leather pieces, Hadid is the epitome of fall fashion in the campaign, shot by photographer Tyrone Lebon and styled by the brand’s creative director, Kate Phelan. Based on the styles we’re seeing in the ads, we can’t wait for cooler weather. (How cute is that menswear-inspired jumper?)

Next up, Gomez is bringing athleisure to a whole new level in the super-chic, colorful and ultra-cozy new collection from Adidas Neo. Filled with basic athletic separates made for layering, including sweaters, leggings and sneakers, each piece in the line features subtle touches of metallic on the logo and is made without stitching — to create clean, seamless silhouettes.

In more beauty news, Richie is getting pretty with Birchbox this month! The Candidly Nicole star has partnered with the beauty subscription service to create a limited-edition box (inspired by the second season of her show) for August, filled with five samples hand-picked by the actress that reflect the show’s theme, “a fresh take on funny,” including Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion, Rene Furterer Lissea Leave-In Smoothing Fluid, St. Tropez Gradual Tan In Shower Lotion, LAQA Cheeky Lip Tints in Humble Brag and a surprise nail polish shade from the OPI Venice Collection.

“I’m thrilled VH1 is partnering with Birchbox for our second season of Candidly Nicole,” Richie said in a statement. “Each month, Birchbox is like a little gift that magically appears full of goodies, and I like to think that I am also like a magic gift filled with goodies. So the partnership feels like destiny, essentially perfect.”

Interested? Subscribers can select to receive the box in August, or purchase the limited-edition version on its own for $15 at Birchbox.com (by August 25).

Finally, NFL Apparel Worth Cheering About (It Gets Jamie Chung's 'Touchdown' of Approval, So ...)

Are you ready for some football? Though we’re not quite ready to say goodbye to summer, we’re also starting to start putting together our fantasy football lists and get tickets for our teams’ biggest games … which means we’re also already planning outfits for the season. Here to help: NFL Women’s Apparel and Tweens/Juniors, which has tapped some of Hollywood’s biggest football fans — Jamie Chung, Alyssa Milano and Madison Pettis (along with Dascha Polanco, Erin Heatherton and Tika Sumpter, not shown) — to rep their hometown teams in the brand’s latest sidelines styles.

As a San Francisco 49ers fan “all the way,” Jamie Chung said repping her family’s favorite team for the brand’s fall campaign was a no-brainer. “I have so much hometown pride, it’s kind of great,” Chung told PEOPLE. “Back in 2012, I took my dad to the Super Bowl — and we lost, which was heartbreaking — but it was pretty monumental because my dad’s a die-hard Niners fan. As a Korean immigrant growing up in San Francisco during the Niners golden years … it was the one thing that he was able to relate to people with.”

Chung particularly likes this brand’s apparel because it’s both stylish and serious about sports. “[Celeb stylist] Kate Young styled this shoot, which speaks highly of the new merchandise that they have for women’s apparel for NFL — it’s so versatile and cool,” she said. “Ten years ago, the only thing [women] could get was a pink jersey or a pink hat with your team’s logo — and I’m sorry, but I don’t think pink falls into any category for any of the sports teams. Now [NFL Apparel] is coming out with really cute merch that I would definitely integrate into my regular daily wear.”

New York Giants fan Alyssa Milano says comfort is key when it comes to dressing up for the sidelines — even for those miserably cold, dead-of-winter games. “I love to go to games in any of the Touch tops and hoodies, a good pair of slouchy boyfriend cut jeans and a cute sneaker,” the actress told PEOPLE. “If I’m going out after the game, I’ll do a Touch top with a pair of skinny jeans and a great boot or shoe.”

So no face paint or crazy wigs for the star? “Wait. Face paint isn’t cute? Kidding!,” she said, laughing. “I usually go comfy-chic unless it’s a big championship game and then I go comfy-chic-crazy.”

And while they may be too young to claim a favorite team just yet, Milano told PEOPLE that her love for the Giants better be genetic, or she may have a football feud with her two children, Milo and Elizabella, when they get older: “[If] they become Eagles fans, I may need to look for new children,” she joked.

And finally, unlike this season’s other football fan ambassadors, 17-year-old Disney star Pettis claims to have not one but two teams she roots for each year: the Dallas Cowboys and the New England Patriots. “I grew up in Arlington, Texas, which is the home of the Dallas Cowboys, and in Texas, football is literally a way of life — the Cowboys are a dynasty — so they’re my [favorite] NFC team,” she told PEOPLE. “My fave AFC team is the New England Patriots. Since we filmed The Game Plan in Boston, I have a special place in my heart for the Patriots, plus my mom is originally from Massachusetts and I have a lot of relatives there, so she also raised me with a love for the Patriots.”

With two teams to cheer on, we’re sure to see the star rock a variety of looks throughout the sports’ season, including a fun pair of heels for some “extra height,” with the line’s new mesh tops and colorful, intricate nail art.

“I’m a teenage girl who loves fashion, so I definitely go the ‘cute’ route [when I go to games], which is easy to do with all of the options in the tweens/juniors line,” she said.
“[The line] also has nail decals that I’m obsessed with — I love a cool manicure design. And I’ve never done face paint, but maybe I’ll try it if I go to a playoff game!”

First came all the fall ad campaigns, and now, the coveted September covers! A slew of fashion magazines revealed their most talked about issues of the year and we noticed one major trend: cover models are back! Karlie Kloss nabs two features, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley stuns in a gorgeous editorial spread and more major model moments below.

Rosie Huntington-WhiteleyAlexi Lubomirski

Huntington-Whiteley is pretty in pink for her Harper’s Bazaar spread (shot by Alexi Lubomirski) and in the corresponding interview she opens up about her “idyllic” childhood, and the importance of having a supportive family that allowed her to be “selfish.” (The full interview’s available here with issues on sale now and available on Apple Newsstand.)

Kloss’s fall ad campaign count is through the roof, and she’s currently in the lead for September covers too. (This soldifies our theory that she’s actually a superhuman.)

In addition to killing her cover pose and swimming in pools wearing sequin mini dresses for Glamour, she even helped deliver issues around town in an accompanying video! Really, there’s nothing this woman can’t do.

She also graces the pages of Canadian fashion magazine, Flare, going in a different sartorial direction in oversize sweaters, knit dresses and jeans. She opened up to the mag all about her love of coding and starting school at NYU in the fall.

Chrissy Teigen wins for most naked (shocking considering she said losing a few inches of hair made her feel naked) with her Women’s Health UK cover, where she dives into her eating habits, workout routine (and hangs out what looks like a concert diving board?) in the spread.

The Kardashian/Jenner Sisters Love Mono-Material Outfits: Here Are Their Signature Looks

When the Kardashian/Jenner women find a style they like, they usually buy it in multiple colors and prints. And when they find a fabric they like, they wear it all the time. In fact, the famous family is forging a new fashion path for mono-material outfits. Below, their fabrics of choice.

Kourtney Kardashian and Kylie JennerAKM-GSI

1. Kourtney Kardashian, Dark Denim: Jean-on-Jean? Not a concern for the stylish mom of three, who has been stepping out in some pretty awesome outfits recently. We love how the loose RtA button-down top balances her tight skinnies. She dresses up her look with metallic cap-toe pumps.

2. Kylie Jenner, Leather: The 17-year-old star (she turns 18 on Monday!) brings a whole new meaning to hot-weather leather. And she manages to make a $1,495 leather RtA jumpsuit look sleek by keeping the rest of her accessories to a minimum. (Note: Kourtney and Kylie have been going on a lot of stylish sister dates lately.)

3. Kim Kardashian, Suede: It doesn’t matter the outside temperature, Kim loves her suede. One of her best looks? This Ermanno Scervino cleavage-baring dress, which she paired with matching suede Aquazzura sandals. (She definitely has some kind of built-in sweat blocker.)

4. Kendall Jenner, Light Denim: The supermodel of the family goes for the riskier denim-on-denim move with a light wash style — and totally nails it.

5. Khloé Kardashian, Spandex: She didn’t get her “revenge body” by sitting inside on the couch. The fitness buff (who recently opened up about her workout routine and eating habits to Women’s Health) loves a stretchy, second-skin two-piece set. She also loves to bring her version of athlesiure to the streets — spandex capris, a coordinating top, flannel tied at the waist and lace-up heels, as seen in the photo below.

Emily Ratajkowski, Kristen Stewart and Kylie Jenner Are Ready for Fall in Their Season-Pushing Ensembles

Toward the end of every season we notice a crop of stars who just can’t contain their excitement for their upcoming wardrobe swap. Some stars (including Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens) can’t stop wearing leather — even in 90° weather. Our most recent examples? Emily Ratajkowski, Kristen Stewart and Kylie Jenner are serving up fall-ready looks that have us itching for cooler months.

Thigh-high boots were all the rage in March, back when legs were dying for some Vitamin D but the temps were still too chilly to go pantsless. And now, Emily is resurrecting the trend with her two sexy looks this week. On Tuesday she stopped by a photocall for her new film, We Are Your Friends in London wearing a long-sleeve mod Zimmermann mini featuring a (totally fall-ready) mock turtleneck paired with sexy Brian Atwood boots. The day before, she arrived to the city wearing a similar look with a ’70s twist, consisting of a loose-fitting black T-shirt dress with suede knee-highs and a mustard-color box purse.

Even her airport travel look gave us outfit inspo for our first cool-weather brunch — wearing a tan moto jacket traveling through LAX with ripped black skinnies and brogues.

Stewart did season-pushing a little differently by opting for a summery dress and layering on the cold-weather accessories. She wore a graphic-print Thakoon sheath out and about in N.Y.C., but added her beloved Balenciaga leather jacket and a gray beanie to her look. (And keep in mind, the temps were in the 80s all day.)

And finally, Jenner wore an oversize plaid Houghton shirt with (what else?) high heel tall boots.

Despite what you see on Instagram, not every celeb, designer and model spent the summer drinking rose on a yacht in the Mediterranean. Some have been hard at work, and there’s a slew of new clothing lines, ad campaigns and collaborations launching this fall to prove it. Here’s a roundup of everything to look out for come September.

After wearing her own designs on the red carpet all summer, Melissa McCarthy’s much-anticipated clothing line, Seven7, is finally hitting stores at the beginning of the month (it recently debuted on HSN). The collection (which will be available at Nordstrom, Macy’s, Bloomingdale’s and her own website) ranges from sizes four to 28 and contains fun prints, asymmetrical hemlines and flattering dress silhouettes.

Carrie Underwood is another star who’s been trying her hand at designing, with her new activewear line, CALIA. And for the brand’s fall campaign, the new mom got a little help from her fans by soliciting fun, fitness-inspired mantras to use in the ads. One that made the cut: “Nap Time Is My Crunch Time.”

Meanwhile, Ellen DeGeneres is taking her ED line to the Big Apple, where she’ll be hosting a pop-up shop at Bergdorf Goodman during Fashion Week. Her collection, which features apparel, accessories and home goods, will also include a limited-edition selection of pricey pieces (ranging from $800-$3750) created exclusively for the famed department store.

“I’m so excited to showcase my lifestyle brand, ED, at Bergdorf Goodman during Fashion Week,” DeGeneres said in a statement. “We originally wanted it during Shark Week, but I think this will be just as good.”

Target’s exciting collaboration with designer Adam Lippes doesn’t hit stores until Sept. 27, but it’s not too early to start scoping out your favorite pieces from the all-plaid collection. We have our eye on the shirt-dress midi, a cozy camel-colored turtleneck and all of the oversize scarves.

Petra Němcová is breaking an outdated fashion rule in the new Level 99 jeans ad. In a pic she shared on Instagram, the supermodel can be seen wearing a pair of eco-friendly white-wash skinnies from the brand’s Forever White collection. So for the last time, it’s totally fine to wear white after Labor Day, people!

And here’s one you can’t help but be pumped about. Fifth Harmony, recorded a new song, “Rock Your Candie’s,” for their partnership with Candie’s — and it’s catchy! The song will be featured in a commercial, airing this Sunday during the Teen Choice Awards, but we’ve got a preview clip, above.

“We are so excited to be able to partner with Candie’s on this song,” Ally Brooke, of Fifth Harmony, said in a statement. “They have such an amazing line with beautiful clothes and super cute shoes.”

If you’ve been contemplating a trip to New York Fashion Week for years but have never been able to get it together in time, consider this your three-week warning: Lauren Conrad, The Fat Jewish and Givenchy will all be showing at fashion’s biggest event in September, and with a lineup like that, there’s sure to be something for everyone.

Conrad, former The Hills star and current mastermind behind the clothing lines LC Lauren Conrad for Kohl’s and Paper Crown (as well as your favorite beauty blog), is making her runway debut with a limited-edition LC Lauren Conrad Runway Collection, which is set to show on Sept. 9.

“We are beyond thrilled to announce that #LCLaurenConrad will be debuting a new collection at #NYFW on September 9th! This will be the first runway show for our line, and @LaurenConrad and @Kohls have been hard at work on this for months,” Kohl’s captioned its social media shot. “We’ll be posting behind the scenes videos, first looks at the line, and also giving our followers a front row pass to our exclusive livestream of the #LCRunway show ✨ {so stay tuned & double tap if you’re as excited for our first runway collection as we are!}.”

Details on the full line are limited, but knowing Conrad’s personal sartorial choices and the recurring themes in her current collections, we’re expecting lots of fit-and-flare minis, oversize cozy cardigans, dreamy pastel tops and more in that vein. And we can bet you’ll see some beachy waves (and maybe a braid or two) on her models.

LC isn’t the only celeb heading to NYFW this September. Joshua Ostrovsky, otherwise known as @TheFatJewish on Instagram, is also taking his talents to the tents.

The social media star, who recently signed with the talent agency CAA and with One Management as a male model (and is also the co-founder of this summer’s drink of choice, White Girl Rosé), will debut the Dad Fashion show, according to The Cut.

The show, which he describes as “an eclectic collection of apparel” celebrating the “moods and personalities of dads of all ages,” is set for Sept. 16 at MADE studios at the Standard Hotel. Believe us when we say, this is one show not to be missed (and not just because his celebrity dog Toast may make a cameo).

And lastly, a quintessentially French brand, Givenchy, is decamping for N.Y.C. this fall under the watch of creative director Riccardo Tisci. The label will present its Spring/Summer 2016 collection in the States for the first time ever, according to WWD.

The move to NYFW doesn’t come as too much of a surprise, as the show is set to coincide with the label’s opening of its U.S. flagship boutique in Manhattan at the end of the summer. The presentation, featuring a special collaboration with performance artist Marina Abramovic, is set for Sept. 11.

“She’s going to help me to art direct the show,” Tisci told WWD. “It’s going to be very interesting.”

You Can Get a Wardrobe from Empire, a T-Shirt from Beyoncé and More Shopping News

If the thought of fall shopping has you a little overwhelmed, we’re here to help cut your search time in half. Between mega department stores teaming up for exclusive collections (like one with Empire!) and celebs launching charitable fashion projects (hi, Beyoncé), we have your autumn wardrobe makeover covered.

EmpireCourtesy Saks Fifth Avenue

First on your must-shop list: the exclusive Empire collaboration with Saks Fifth Avenue. It’s available in stores and online this fall and includes a curated collection of wardrobe staples to get you looking just like the main characters from the show. You can channel Cookie’s (played by Taraji P. Henson) glamorous dynastic aesthetic, or the dapper vibes of Lucious Lyon (Terrence Howard), Hakeem (Bryshere Y. Gray), Jamal (Jussie Smollett) and Andre (Trai Byers). The wardrobe inspo includes high-fashion pieces from Alexis Bittar jewelry, Cushnie et Ochs clothing, Jimmy Choo pumps and MCM accessories. It may be hard to resist buying them all and then practicing Cookie’s one-liners in front of a mirror.

BeyoncéCourtesy Teespring.com

Looking for something a little more subdued? Check out Beyoncé’s re-launched “Bey Good” message T-shirt. She’s giving the tee a second go on Teespring.com in honor of World Humanitarian Day, but with that in mind, she’s only making it available for 24 hours (because she’s Beyoncé and she can do things like that). The proceeds of the “Bey Good” top go to the Saint Damien Pediatric Hospital in Haiti, to provide children with full cancer treatment. So you can wear your love for Beyoncé on your sleeve and support a great cause — pretty much a no-brainer, right?

Next, Leandra Medine (a.k.a. your favorite Man Repeller) teamed up with Veda for a limited-edition menswear-inspired outerwear collection. The collab has been a long time coming — Medine has been touting the brand’s styles on her site for ages. The pieces range from military jackets to long trenches, and if you’re digging a certain style we recommend you act fast. There are only 150 available, which you can pick up at the Veda flagship store in N.Y.C. or by visiting thisisveda.com.

And finally, another iconic N.Y.C. retailer is coming up with a must-shop in-house collection. Barneys New York and the CFDA are teaming up to create a “Made in New York” line, produced by local New York-based manufacturers. And a few big-name designers (Altuzarra, Narciso Rodriguez, Proenza Schouler, The Row, R13, Rag & Bone and Thom Browne) are joining in on the designs that are set to come in a clean neutral palette and which will land in the $95 to $4,800 price range. Plus, ten percent of all retail proceeds will benefit the CFDA and the Fashion Manufacturing Initiative (FMI). The collection launches in late August in Barneys New York stores across the country and on Barneys.com.
