The body positivity era is over & fashion houses are making sure of it, writes Alyssa Forato.The internet is a scary place these days.

Staying online will only affect my mental health.We’re all well aware of the ‘skinny epidemic’...

We’re deep in the trenches of winter. There’s no end in sight from the cold, dull days, and depending on where you’re from, a bucket load of rain often comes hand in hand with the dismal forecast.

Arthur Miller: almost all of us are familiar with his work in one way or another. Miller’s name rings bells because you either studied one of his works in school or you’re well versed in his line-up of theatrical masterpieces. While he’s most commonly known for The Crucible (1952), which is his most frequently produced play globally, Death of a Salesman (1948) is recognised as his literary masterpiece, winning him a Pulitzer Prize in 1949.

Uncle Vanya: Chekhov Gets a Witty, Warm Makeover at the Arts Centre Melbourne - The Fourth Wall

Oftentimes, when you book tickets to the theatre, you typically expect a rollercoaster of emotions, grand ambition from main characters and trials, certainly, but ultimately the promise of a happy ending. Melbourne Theatre Company’s reimagining of Uncle Vanya is not that. The characters are in despair, everything is falling apart, and no one wants to do anything about it. While it may sound like a depressing watch, it’s quite the opposite.


Written by Russian playwright Anton Chekhov in 1897,...

The rise of paywalled friendships

In the age of late stage capitalism, finding a true third space is near impossible, and social clubs are cashing in, writes Alyssa Forato.At the start of this year, I set myself a goal to make some new friends. Not that there’s anything wrong with my current circle - I love them dearly - but it’s always good to put yourself out of your comfort zone.

Men Who Yearn Are Single Handedly Saving Rom-Coms

For years, romantic comedies have romanticised emotionally unavailable men: commitment-phobes, detached cool guys and male love interests who literally need a woman standing in front of him, asking him to love her. And while those late ’90s and early 2000s rom-coms will forever be iconic, the same tropes were rinsed and repeated a little too much. Enter: the demise of rom-coms throughout the 2010s. But those days might be over. We’ve officially entered an era of men who yearn.

How KATSEYE Went From A Music Industry Experiment To A Worldwide Success

“I didn’t even know KATSEYE was doing a concert?!” was the consensus I got from my friends when I gushed in our group chat about how incredible the girl group’s show on Friday night was.
And that was completely intentional. Unless you’re in KATSEYE’s broadcast channels, have K-Pop-related content feeding your algorithm, checked Ticketmaster’s website 10 days prior to the performance or had a friend tell you about it, you probably were completely unaware the up-and-coming HYBE group was visiting...
