English Version | In Vogue Accessories: The Body Issue

The accessories you need for the upcoming season,from The Body Issue, published March 2022

Size matters

From the creators of “I bet you can’t make a water smaller than this one” bring us “XXL, the revenge of the giant purse.” Made with the people that like to walk around with the entirety of their earthly belongings around, in other words, all of us.

This is not a bucket

It’s hard to explain the shape of our new crush, but why waste our time with explanations if there are so many wonderful options to choose from? And if someone suggests that the yellow object you have in hand resembles a beach toy, just nod and say: V-e-r-s-a-c-e.

Flats forever

Saying that flat sandals are back might be a bit of an exaggeration. They actually never got out of style. It wouldn’t be very wise to assume that they are “Roman-inspired”, or let's say “Greek-inspired”. Only Homero could clear our doubts, but unfortunately, we are not able to communicate with the afterlife (yet). So, let's just love them for what they are: cute, practical, and comfortable. We want all of them.

Afraid of heights

Living on the edge. That's how we feel when we walk around with these shoes (and sandals) with very high heels and gigantic platforms. Day or night, the occasion makes us want them, and that desire makes the look. There are no boundaries, just an immense sensation of invincibility. We might not make the moon, but, for a few hours, we’ll take our feet off the floor.

Lighting rod

Whether there's rain or shine, they’re always there. Of course, from now on, we want sun, and the exactly from its rays that these hats will protect us from - but in a very cool way, of course. Or do you think we were going to put a hat on our heads if we weren’t going to look half as cool as Johnny Depp in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas?

Chain fever

When a trend makes too much noise, in other words, when it starts showing up everywhere, there's a simple way to understand if it's worth investing in it, or if it's best to just skip it. In case of these two names (Saint Laurent or Chanel) makes something that justifies the buzz, there’s nothing to fear. Case in point: chokers. This is what credit cards are for.
