Alexander Wang pulled out all the stops to tease his new spring/summer 2016 campaign by launching a brand-new Instagram handle, @wangsquad, on Monday to preview the famous faces he’s cast. The designer’s favorite model muses, including Lexi Boling, Anna Ewers, Molly Blair and Hanne Gaby, are joined by a handful of entertainers and creatives such as Travis Scott, singer Alice Glass and painter Lucien Smith. Kaia Gerber,14, is also set to make an appearance in the campaign, which debuts in March. [Instagram]
Gigi Hadid’s latest Vogue cover leaves little to the imagination.

The second cover is just a bit more covered up, with the model wearing just a Chanel coat and pearls. Though she’s posed for other Vogue iterations in the past (Spain, Netherlands, Italy, Brazil, etc.), this is her first cover spot for the famed Parisian edition. [Instagram]

Madewell has partnered with New York-based designer Daryl Kerrigan of the brand Daryl K for a new 18-piece collection set to launch Wednesday. The collab fuses the designer’s ‘90s aesthetic with Madewell’s laid-back vibe, so it makes sense that they tapped fashion icon/rocker Kim Gordon to front the campaign. In an interview, Kerrigan also revealed that she has plans to “refresh” her own brand in the coming months. [Fashionista]
