Marc Jacobs's Latest Show Proved That Sometimes, Bigger Is Better
In the gap between men's fashion week and couture, Marc Jacobs reminded the industry that New York has still got it. Tonight, the designer gathered everyone inside the New York Public Library's main branch for his 2026 runway presentation. Guests, including Julia Fox, RHONY's Sai De Silva, and Tina Leung, looked playfully voluminous in last season's runway collection, taking care to mind the foot-long toes of their high heels as they slapped up the marble steps. The beauty of a Marc Jacobs show lies in his ability to choose. Will he wipe last season's slate and begin anew? Or will he continue to percolate on design ideas and see how far he can push them? This evening was a combination of both. True to his word, the show began at 7:30 P.M. sharp. By 7:36, 19 looks later, it felt like it had all been a dream. It's no secret that Jacobs has played with proportion and dimension over his past few collections. His models often look doll-like, their exaggerated silhouettes and cartoonish beauty frozen in time like a high-fashion Flat Stanley. This season, those ideas expanded—quite literally—offering further iterations of these bulbous shapes through round, pinup-like silhouettes, plumply padded hips, boxy drop waistlines, and vacuously large puffed shoulders. The haunting aura of these twisted bodies was emphasized by music that can only be described as the ambience to an abandoned antique doll house. Via both material and styling, there was a noticeable added element of destruction that pointed towards a more punk-rock attitude, even within the still-picturesque silhouettes. Where his previous collection felt like a study in dressing classic American icons, this one was more like its rebellious younger sibling who grew up all too fascinated with the spooky eccentricities of A Series of Unfortunate Events. In true punk fashion, Victorian and romantic silhouettes were constructed, twisted, and then undone before our very eyes. The necklines were high; the heels were higher. Bows were blown up (in case anyone thought the motif had gone away), lace was erratically layered over undergarments, and pearls were draped across a bullet bra-esque bustier. What this season offers is a master class in deconstruction, as Jacobs has now portrayed two sides of the same doll-like coin. All that's left is for you to choose.

Earlier this month, Brynn Whitfield, 39, revealed stepping away from reality TV as shared the news on social media. 'After a lot of thought, I've made the decision to walk away from reality TV. For now,' she wrote in a lengthy statement posted on her Instagram Stories, adding that she wanted to 'pour every ounce of energy into building Hoppy,' the dating app she co-founded. 'The Real Housewives of New York City will always be one of the most fun, chaotic, and magical chapters of my life. It was the honor of a lifetime to help reboot such an iconic franchise,' she told her fans. 'From day one, I've believed RHONY is a fan's show — we're just temporary custodians of something that truly belongs to the viewers.' 'I hope I made you laugh (a lot), cry (a little) and more than anything — I hope there's a TV in heaven so that Mimi (who LIVED for her shows) could watch me and be proud,' she continued. 'RHONY without you is maybe not something I want to watch ❤️' said a fan after the shocking announcement. 'This is ridiculous. She was the best one on the cast,' wrote another. 'This actually made me sad. I'm excited for your new journey but I don't think the cast will be the same without you,' a die-hard follower stated. The former reality star, listed her reasons for leaving the show in a lengthy statement in her Instagram Stories including her desire to focus on the Hoppy dating app she co-founded 'This is sad because you were so great the first season, not so great the second season but I was hoping to see your redemption arc third season. Good luck to you!!' was another comment referring to the tempestuous season 15 reunion which aired earlier this year. This fan was devastated: 'I am breaking down in tears as I type.' Tension between Whitfield and castmate Ubah Hassan came to a head following allegations Hassan had accused Whitfield of sleeping with someone to be cast on the reality reboot. Her exit doesn't mean Whitfield is departing from her media career altogether. She will still host her podcast, Please See Below, along with publishing a book. Whitfield is not the only cast member to step away from the show. Fashion designer Rebecca Minkoff, 44, revealed in February she was bowing out after appearing in season 15, saying she wanted to 'focus on my wildly amazing 4 kids, my supportive husband, my business of 20 years, the Female Founder Collective, my podcast and MY BOOK.' She and Whitfield did not get along well after the latter mocked her for having her designs sold at a discount at Nordstrom Rack. 'Listen, she doesn't have to like my stuff. That's fine,' Minkoff conceded in a confessional, before declaring, 'I built a $100 million company.'

Andy Cohen Addresses ‘Real Housewives Of New York City' Cancellation Rumors: 'We Are Between Seasons'
Andy Cohen sets the record straight on The Real Housewives of New York City after rumors that Bravo had cancelled the reality series. The Watch What Happens Live host, also an executive producer on the Real Housewives franchise, took to his SiriusXM show to address the status of RHONY.

'Last week, when I was here, the Bravo execs met with 10 potential new Real Housewives of New York. This is called the casting process between seasons and it's heavily underway.' The rumors about RHONY not moving forward came after Bravo announced their new programming slate which included new seasons of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (Season 15), The Real Housewives of Orange County (Season 19), The Real Housewives of Potomac (Season 10), and The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City (Season 6), among other shows. Notably missing from the list was a renewal for RHONY Season 16. The announcement that Bravo had ordered The Real Housewives of Rhode Island fueled the rumors that RHONY was dead. Despite the cable network confirming that the show was not canceled, the rumors have continued, given the extended pause since it last aired. RHONY underwent a complete cast shakeup for Season 14, introducing a whole new set of Housewives, including Sai de Silva, Ubah Hassan, Erin Lichy, Jenna Lyons, Jessel Taank, and Brynn Whitfield. Racquel Chevremont joined the series in Season 15, which last aired on February 4. New RHONY embraced diversity and showed a different side of the Big Apple. The change divided fans, with some viewers feeling nostalgic about the legacy personalities, including Luann de Lesseps, Sonja Morgan, and Ramona Singer.

The future of The Real Housewives of New York City has been questioned, but one thing is sure: Brynn Whitfield will not be returning. As the future of the Bravo reality series remains uncertain, Whitfield took to social media to announce she is moving on. More from Deadline Lexi Wood Exits Bravo's 'Summer House' After 1 Season Paige DeSorbo Leaving Bravo's 'Summer House' After 7 Seasons 'Love Island: Beyond The Villa' Trailer & Premiere Date Set At Peacock 'After a lot of thought, I've made the decision to walk away from reality TV. For now,' the entrepreneur and TV personality shared on Instagram. 'The Real Housewives of New York City will always be one of the most fun, chaotic, and magical chapters of my life. It was an honor of a lifetime to help reboot such an iconic franchise. From day one, I've believed RHONY is a fan's show — we're just temporary custodians of something that truly belongs to the viewers.' Whitfield noted that she is currently working as a Chief Marketing Officer on a dating app that recently reached a milestone that has her wanting to 'pour every ounce of energy' into making it a bigger success. On her time on RHONY, she said, 'I hope I made you laugh (a lot), cry (a little), and more than anything — I hope there's a TV in heaven so that Mimi (who LIVED for her shows) could watch me and be proud.' RELATED: Whitfield joined RHONY in 2023 as part of a reboot for Season 14 that included Jenna Lyons, Sai De Silva, Ubah Hassan, Jessel Taank, and Erin Lichy. She was deemed a 'fan-favorite' during her first season for her light-heartedness and cheeky personality. Things took a severe turn during her second season, not only with viewers at home, but among the cast. Whitfield's co-stars perceived she twisted the truth to cause drama among them, and by the end of Season 15, none of them trusted her. Whitfield ended up distancing herself from her co-stars and cutting communication with them instead of confronting the situation and admitting wrongdoings to find common ground. RELATED: RHONY ended its season in February 2025 and has been subject to rumors about its cancellation. Executive producer Andy Cohen has denied rumors that the show has been axed and says they are 'between seasons' casting for new Housewives. If RHONY goes back into production this year, Whitfield seems unlikely to have returned either way. In addition to the dating app, Whitfield also hosts a podcast on Spotify called Please See Below.
