11 Honoré won big this Oscars Week in Hollywood with a new runway ready capsule that brought lavish style to the runway and awards shows.
Fashion content creator Hannah Krohne, known online as Hannah Lizzy, partnered with social impact agency Influencer Social Responsibility (ISR)™, founded by Alexandra Bushman, to host a fashion show celebrating confidence and self-expression for girls from non-profit organization Girls Inc. of NYC in honor of Women’s History Month Wednesday evening.
Hosted at the Indego Africa in Residence gallery in Midtown, the penthouse space overlooking Manhattan was decorated with elegant pink florals, light bites, and complimentary goodie bags as around 20 models prepared to walk the runway.
Ahead of the show, Krohne took the mic to introduce the event and reflect on her own journey with confidence.
“Like many teenagers do, I struggled with my confidence throughout middle and high school,” Krohne said. “It took me years to understand that confidence is so much more than liking the way you look. It’s about liking the way you speak; the way you speak to yourself, the way you speak to others. It’s about believing that you bring value into every single room you walk into.”
At 5:30 p.m., around 20 high school girls from Girls Inc. — an organization dedicated to uplifting young women through mentorship and advocacy programs — took to the runway. During the first half of the show, each girl modeled in full glam and formal dresses.
At the midway point, one of the models stepped out to address the crowd, reinforcing the show’s message of boldly being yourself.
“A lot of things are happening and changing in this world and the one thing that we must keep is the freedom of expression,” she said in her speech. “What better way to do that than with clothes?”
During the second half of the show, the girls modeled chic business casual looks and comfortable pastel two-piece sets. Each model’s walk was unique, with some slowly strutting down the runway while others joyfully bounced and waved to the crowd.
Unlike a typical fashion show, where audiences are often reserved, the room erupted in applause. Notable attendees were fashion and lifestyle influencers Miranda McKeon, Maddie Schrader and Frances Bailey, who loudly cheered the girls on and treated them like professional models.
For the Girls Inc. participants, the opportunity to walk the runway was more than just a fashion moment — it was a chance to embody the values that the organization cultivates.
“It’s just been a jaw-dropping kind of day,” Girls Inc. Team Leadership Circles program manager Adjua Thomas said. “Our students are incredible role models to their social community, so it’s really exciting to get to see them be pro-models today.”

The Icon Edit wasn’t just a one-night affair. It’s part of a growing national tour spearheaded by Modern Day Wife founders Meghan Fialkoff and Meagan Elieff, who also MC’ed the evening. Fresh off a successful event during NYFW at the W Hoboken, the tour is heading to W Miami for Miami Swim Week, el Prado Hotel, Sofitel Beverly Hills, W Dallas, and W Scottsdale.
Each stop on the tour covers the full spectrum of women’s lives — career, relationships, motherhood, beauty, wellness, and fashion — through speaker panels, pop-ups, brand experiences, and of course, fabulous fashion shows.
The founders are clearly fired up about what they’re building: “We’re incredibly excited to bring this event and tour to communities across the country. This has always been about creating meaningful, shared experiences, and being able to offer this on a national level is a powerful moment for us and for the communities that have supported our vision from the beginning.” — Meghan Fialkoff & Meagan Elieff, Founders of Modern Day Wife.

Forget the awkward slow dances in a gym and the strict curfews.

On March 5th, the vibe was strictly “main character energy” as guests arrived in head-turning looks that proved prom season is officially here.
Not Your High School Prom
This was not the typical high school dance. There were no chaperones in sight, and the only rule was to show up and show out. Attendees arrived in stunning gowns and chic silhouettes from the Lulus prom collection, turning the event into a live runway of lace, sequins, and satin.
The night was packed with moments worth posting, including:
-
Prom Portraits: Professional shots that actually make you look like a star.
-
Personalized Keepsakes: Guests walked away with beautiful engraved compact mirrors to remember the night.
-
The Atmosphere: A dance floor filled with sparkle, curated treats, and themed drinks that kept the energy high all night long.
Whether you were the prom queen or skipped your dance entirely back in the day, this event was the perfect chance to rewrite the script in a dress that makes you feel unstoppable.
Find Your Own Main Character Look
If you missed the party, don’t worry. You can still bring that same “showing out” energy to your next big event. Lulus has curated a prom collection that covers every style, from classic floor-length ballgowns to trendy, edgy cut-outs.
The best part? These dresses aren’t just for one night. They are designed for any formal occasion where you want to feel like the best-dressed person in the room.
Get Inspired
Ready to find your perfect fit? Head over to the Lulus website to shop the full prom collection and secure your look for the season. For even more style inspiration and updates on the latest trends in formal attire, make sure to follow them on Instagram.
Your dream dress is waiting. Are you ready to dance the night away?
After more than two decades of perfecting its cult-favorite baked formulas, Laura Geller Beauty is officially entering a new chapter. The New York-based brand has launched the Best of the Best Cream Full Face Basics Palette alongside its playful, social-first Just Add Cream campaign, a cozy, kitchen-inspired series spotlighting more than 70 celebrities and creators over 40. The expansion marks Laura Geller Beauty’s first major step into cream formulas, designed specifically with women 40+ in mind, prioritizing hydration, comfort, and natural-looking radiance.
At the heart of the campaign is actor and entrepreneur Tia Mowry, who describes the partnership as deeply aligned with her current chapter. In our conversation, Mowry emphasized how meaningful it is to collaborate with a brand that intentionally celebrates women over 40 and creates products that enhance rather than mask who they are. The all-in-one compact includes cream eyeshadows, lip creams, highlighter, blush, and bronzer, along with dual mirrors for ease of use. But beyond functionality, the message is simple. Aging is not something to correct but something to embrace.
Below, The Knockturnal speaks with Tia Mowry about aging with intention, finding your signature look, and why “just adding cream” might be the easiest beauty shift yet.
The Knockturnal:
I really like the kitchen concept. It aligns really well with the lifestyle content you’ve been incorporating on social media. I’d love to know what excited you most about partnering with Laura Geller Beauty for this launch.
Tia Mowry:
I love that Laura Geller Beauty is one of the few major brands that caters to women over 40. When I think about my daily beauty routine, I’m looking for hydration, radiance, and glow, and that’s definitely something they prioritize.
That’s one of the main reasons I loved partnering with Laura Geller. But not only that, they’re all about making your beauty routine practical, easy, and fun. You mentioned the kitchen concept. When I think about the kitchen, whether it’s me cooking or just hanging out with my family and friends, it’s all about having a great time.
That’s what this palette feels like. It’s about practicality and just having fun while making things simple.
The Knockturnal:
Laura Geller Beauty has been around for over 20 years, and the beauty industry has changed so much in that time. What do you think women misunderstand about beauty as they age?
Tia Mowry:
For me, when I think about aging, it’s all about embracing the process. When I think about my gray hairs or just maturing as a woman, I see it as a blessing.
I’m happy to be here, alive and well. I was actually talking to a friend recently about getting glasses. Some people see it as an annoyance, but it’s really just a part of maturing. Getting older is a blessing. That’s another thing I love about Laura Geller Beauty. It’s all about embracing that process.
The Knockturnal:
I love that perspective. What advice would you give younger women about finding their signature look?
Tia Mowry:
Do whatever makes you feel positive about yourself. Of course, there are always trends out there, but follow whatever makes you feel beautiful. Follow whatever makes you feel confident and bold. If that’s a red lip, wear a red lip. If it’s a natural glow, then embrace that natural glow. Just be unapologetically you. That’s what I would say. You are unique.
The Knockturnal:
You’ve played so many different characters throughout your career, from Sister Sister to The Game to Family Reunion. Has stepping into those different roles influenced how you experiment with beauty?
Tia Mowry:
I think for me, it’s always been about showing up as myself. One story that comes to mind is from the show Sister, Sister. I was a young Black girl with curly hair, and at the time, that wasn’t always seen or celebrated. However, I remained true to myself. I thought, you know what? This is who I am. I moved with confidence and hoped that would inspire others to do the same.
Even with Family Reunion, I hadn’t worn my hair curly in a long time since Sister, Sister. I asked the producer if I could wear my natural curls again, and they were supportive of it. One season, I even cut my hair. So when I think about beauty, it’s really about being unapologetically yourself and embracing who you are.
The Knockturnal:
When you tried the Best of the Best Cream Face Palette, was there a specific feature that surprised you?
Tia Mowry:
What I love about the palette is that it’s truly an all-in-one process. It has a step-by-step approach that makes everything simple. I really love all of it. The eyeshadows are beautiful, the highlighter is amazing, I love a good glow, and the cream lip products were fantastic.
But it also had two mirrors in one palette, which I hadn’t seen before. Overall, I think the whole thing is genius. It’s creative, easy, practical, and fun. What I especially love is that when I’m looking for an everyday makeup routine, I want it to feel natural. I still want to look like myself. This palette gives you that natural shine and glow while still helping you feel confident.
The Knockturnal:
What do you hope women take away from this campaign when they see it?
Tia Mowry:
I hope they take away the importance of embracing themselves and embracing their natural beauty. Additionally, it’s crucial to enjoy the process. When you add a sense of fun to whatever you’re doing, it creates a beautiful intention for your day, an intention for where you want to go and how you want to feel.
So it’s really about being unapologetically yourself, having fun, feeling good, and looking good.
Let’s hair it for the groomed boys (and gals).
