Filtered through a Cabmate lens on the fashion industry and beyond, here you will find the stories, styles, images, and cultural moments you need to know. If it’s very Cabmate, it’s in Very Cabmate.



Vol. 9

Here's this week’s round-up of the things to see, read, listen to, and shop — curated by Cabmate.

Very Cabmate:

We’ve all seen the (diabolic) first images of Ryan Murphy Production’s American Love Story.

All for Carolyn - the (Instagram) authority on CBK and her immaculate style - was able to put down into words why it’s all so wrong: Why Getting the Costuming Right Isn’t Optional;

Kate Moss and supermarkets, it’s always a golden combination for some reason. For Self-Portrait’s latest campaign, Johnny Dufort photographed her in a local London grocery store wearing Self-Portrait burgundy leather hot pants and grey knit body - looking classy cool as always;

Jonathan Bailey wearing a head-to-toe - literally, including flip-flops - look from The Row at the London promotion of the new film Jurassic World: Rebirth. Opinions may differ on whether it was the right look for the occasion, but he’s definitely keeping it real in a chic way:
