Content warning: This story discusses residential schools and violence against Indigenous people. Canada’s Residential School Survivors and Family Crisis Line is available 24 hours a day at 1-866-925-4419. This article was originally published on September 29, 2021 and has been updated. In 1973, a six-year-old Phyllis Webstad was preparing for her first day at St. Joseph’s Mission Residential School in British Columbia. In anticipation of the big day, her grandmother took to buy a new outfit. She picked out a bright, shiny orange shirt, which matched the excitement she felt to be going to school. But when she arrived at the Mission, she was stripped of her own clothes and her orange shirt was taken from her, never to be seen again. Webstad, a Northern Secwpemc (Shuswap) from the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation, is one of many survivors of Canada’s residential school system. In 2013, she founded Orange Shirt Day, recognized on September 30, as a way of acknowledging the traumati...

A full life is punctuated by milestones—celebrations, big and small, meant to revere the things we’ve accomplished, reached or simply gotten through. To remember these occasions as time goes on, we collect mementos—souvenirs that allow us to savour those special moments forever. And a souvenir, like a piece of jewellery, shines even brighter when bought for oneself. Gone are the days of waiting to be gifted one of those small, unassuming boxes. It’s 2023 and we’re celebrating ourselves with Pandora, a brand practically synonymous with the marking of life’s precious moments, and the launch of its Lab-Grown Diamonds collection. Pandora is breaking conventions with this new range, featuring pieces made with 100 per cent recycled silver and gold, and diamonds grown, cut and polished using 100 per cent renewable energy. Within this collection are three categories: Pandora Nova, which is design-forward and features a special setting to showcase the brilliance of the lab-grown diamonds; Pan...

While you can’t buy self-love, you can buy vintage Dior, and for Jeauni (pronounced “Joo-nee”) Cassanova, this sparked a journey with unexpected rewards. The New Jersey artist has accumulated 70+ pieces of John Galliano-era Dior goodness in fewer than five years. “It just all unravelled in front of me,” Cassanova laughs. “Every time I bought something, it would be my opportunity to fall in love with another collection and then buy more.” @jeaunicassanova Feeling like the ultimate Dior girl in this Koi Fish moment! #maximalism #fyp #grwm #fashiontiktok #maximalist #stylesnap #Dior #johngalliano #fashiontok ♬ Baja Samba – Monster Rally For those in need of a reminder, Galliano was the creative director of Christian Dior from 1996 to 2011. His tenure was defined by unapologetic opulence and romance, where fantasy and frivolity were prioritized over function. Thanks to him, we have the saddlebag, Kate Moss ’s wedding gown and the iconic newspaper dress forever immortali...
