    I’m sorry “cream knackered”?? Isn’t it cream crackered? Like the point is that it’s cockney rhyming slang for knackered which means tired, no?

    Lol i have never heard the word Bezzle and i’m English. Swear she researched them first. Or maybe just making them up? Blub definitely means to cry and the phrase is Cream Crackered, not cream knackered.

    For those who’ve never heard her British accent, watch her movie “Love, Rosie”.

      That’s not her real accent though, it’s put on for a movie so it’s not “her British accent”. Also there’s pretty much no such thing as a “British accent” because everyone in Britian has a different accent (Scottish, English, Welsh or Northern Irish!) Either way, she grew up in England and moved to LA and has a British dad 🙂

      @Jess “her” British accent “in the movie”. I’m very much aware of the different types of accents 😊
      My comment was just in response to the people who wanted to hear what it sounds like.

    She is really good at it and really helps to memorize those slang definitions by repeating them within the context

    I’ve lived in the UK my whole life and I didn’t know half of these

    It’s cream CRACKERED. Knackered is what it means. Cream knackered is pointless

    Getting a Brit to explain these would make more sense if they didn’t grow up in the states for most of their younger life (particularly teen years when you tend to pick up slang)

How the Front Row Became the Front Row | Vogue

Published

on

Over the past 75 years, fashion shows have evolved from intimate presentations to global spectacles. Vogue takes a look at the rich history of fashion’s illustrious front row. Dior’s 1950s “New Look” revolutionized femininity, while the ’60s embraced individual freedom and exclusivity. The ’70s introduced cultural influencers and turned shows into entertainment, paving the way for the extravagant glamour of the ’80s. By the ’90s, mainstream appeal dominated, and the 2000s saw celebrities strategically claim the front row. The rise of influencers in the 2010s, fueled by social media, democratized access to Fashion Week. Even as the pandemic briefly halted live shows, the industry adapted and returned. Today, the front row itself has become part of the spectacle with celebrities like Kylie Jenner wearing the same outfit we also see on the runway.
