ILLUSTRATION BY FRANZISKA BARCZYK "I hope that more men like me will seek the treatment they’ve always deserved." By Sean Loughran Date September 7, 2022 Facebook Twitter In July 2019, I found myself Googling “eating disorder treatment for men.” Self-judgment and doubt crept in as I combed through the search results, wondering what my friends and family would think of my current situation.

My husband and I were at a tiny cottage on Lake Muskoka 25 years ago, when his phone rang with his sister calling to say the Princess of Wales had been in a car crash.

By Annika Lautens Date September 3, 2022 Facebook Twitter The US and UK collide in Tommy Hilfiger x Richard Quinn Photography courtesy of Tommy Hilfiger In theory, Tommy Hilfiger x Richard Quinn shouldn’t work: one represents quintessential American style, the other has come to personify the experimental aesthetic coming out of the UK.

By Natalie Michie Date September 1, 2022 Facebook Twitter In a world that teaches women we need to shrink in order to fit in, Serena Williams refuses to be contained.
