TOKYO – Ah yes, the traditional Olympic hand-wringing over the bathing suits that beach volleyball players wear to play volleyball on the beach (or, at least, on sand that's been carefully and probably artificially placed near water). Our unwillingness to move beyond the lowest-hanging fruits of gender inequality has once again manifested as a sometimes prurient and sometimes puritanical obsession with dictating what women wear to work. In the lead-up to the Tokyo Olympics this conversation was kicked into high gear by a pair of conflicting crackdowns on female athletes' competition clothes. A Norwegian women's beach handball team was fined for shorts that covered too much, and a paralympic track and field competitor was chastised for briefs that didn't cover enough. It's almost as if the only consistent expectation placed on women is that they please everyone.

Simply change the way you style them and you'll be warm and on trend… Layer over and under The secret to wearing dresses in winter is layering. Strappy summer dresses often work well over slim turtlenecks and long-sleeve T-shirts with round necks. For an edgy effect, try jeans or leggings underneath and complete the look with a denim jacket. Wear tights Tights add texture and subtle interest to your look, while providing warmth. Plain black tights should be a wardrobe staple as they can be worn under most dresses, while patterned tights look best under simple dresses in a solid hue. Cover up You can wear your favourite summer dresses with almost any kind of cover up, including coats, jackets and cardigans. Pair a fitted, mid-length dress with a classic trench coat and a floaty dress with a cropped jacket. Classic cardigans look cute with belted dresses, while long knit cardigans suit o...

Dive Brief: Fast fashion has supposedly slowed down, but Chinese player Shein is winning over Gen Z with a level of newness that entails "analyzing customer data to inform new designs within as little as three days" and adding more than 1,000 new styles daily, according to research from retail analytics firm Edited. The DTC company is also beating fast-fashion stalwarts like Zara and H&M on price, and despite sluggish overall apparel sales last year, grew its own sales 250% year over year to $10 billion, Edited said. Another differentiator is how Shein caters to the plus customer: Its "curve + plus" styles are 16% of its assortment, compared to 9% at Forever 21, according to the report. Dive Insight: Shein founder and CEO Chris Xu's expertise in SEO and brand marketing "are key factors in Shein's rise to dominance," because the brand latches onto the styles that go viral on TikTok, where it boasts 2.1 million followers a...
