But now that it’s Balenciaga that finally came calling it couldn’t feel more right—not least because the Jamaican-British 46-year-old heroine of elevated street-style arrives as no stranger. It was back in 2015 that Demna, a long-distance fan who’d discovered her first presentations on the internet, hired Rose as a consultant when he was inaugurating the first Balenciaga menswear collections. I recognized her there from her low-key London shows, smilingly egging Demna on in her quiet way behind the scenes while I was working on a Vogue feature about him.They conspired eye-to-eye on what Rose later described to me as her…
It took the world grinding to a halt for Lola Teller, 29, and Freddie Woodruff, 35, to get going. A mutual friend had set them up on a date in 2020, but with Lola studying in Edinburgh and Freddie building his catering business, Noco, in London, geography got in the way. That is, until 12 months later, when lockdown found them separated by little more than a field in Boscastle, Cornwall, where Lola’s mother, fashion photographer and stylist Venetia Scott, owns a house, and Freddie was setting up a restaurant. “He used to come and cook for us every night,…
If summer nuptials call for layers of floating chiffon and bright prints befitting a beach ceremony, winter wedding guest dresses are decidedly more pared-back. Velvet gowns stand in for linen maxis; fluttery cocktail dresses are replaced by floor-length options with long sleeves; the palette gets moody, rich, and inky. If you have a cold-weather dress code on the horizon and want to add a new piece to your closet, start with our edit.Vogue’s Guide to the Best Winter Wedding Guest Dresses:These 28 options are geared toward guests (though, attention, bridesmaids: If your prompt is black tie and you’re on a…

Special occasions call for special beauty moments. At least, that was the case for Nicole Kidman, who showed off her new bangs for a historic moment: Chanel’s first-ever runway in Australia, where the Biarritz cruise collection was re-shown.“Having Nicole back home in Sydney for [the show] felt really special,” hairstylist Adir Abergel tells Vogue exclusively. (While working closely with Kidman, the hairstylist can also be found crafting the punky crop of Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron’s architectural micro bob.) Kidman was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, but moved to Sydney shortly after. “Matthieu’s collection is all about the seaside, and Sydney…
Amal Clooney has always been a fan of a statement look, never missing an opportunity to wear archival couture in Cannes, punchy prints in the Med, or dazzling sequins on the red carpet. But formalwear and vacation wardrobe aside, her everyday style is a little more down-to-earth, as evidenced by her latest appearance in New York, which saw Mrs. Clooney opt for an everywoman approach to a fall look—albeit in a fittingly elevated way.Photo: Darla Khazei/INSTARimagesJoined by her husband George Clooney, she was photographed leaving Seaview Studio over the weekend in an understated look, wearing a long suede coat over…
“The results are fascinating,” Bukobza says, “because they suggest that certain areas around our eyes may offer information about our internal health that isn’t apparent from simply looking at someone’s face.” There are important caveats, however. “The research is at an early stage, and detecting anemia is very different from measuring ferritin.” Indeed, haemoglobin measures the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen, while ferritin measures the iron stored in the body. Ferritin levels can fall before haemoglobin levels, meaning someone can have iron deficiency without yet developing anemia.The appetite for beauty-from-within products — from functional beverages that support…
Rose carries a lot of industry goodwill. Since rumors began swirling on social media about her appointment, scores of editors, stylists, influencers and celebrities rejoiced online. Her offbeat menswear, inspired by British subcultures from football casuals to rave kids, skinheads to reggae heads, has won the designer many fans since she launched her eponymous label in 2007. Not least Kendrick Lamar, who posted about Rose after she made looks for his Big Steppers tour in 2022: “Bucket list to work with Martine Rose…” he posted to his then-12 million Instagram followers, alongside a photo of Rose peace-signing into the camera.…
How do you redirect the impulse to do things for your kids that they can do themselves?It’s such a process—first of self-awareness and understanding when you’re jumping in to solve someone else’s problems even when they should do it, and then realizing that your over-functioning causes deficits in other people’s skill development. I’m not just talking about my kids; I’m talking about my parents and my sibling and everyone in my life. I had over-functioned on every front, and once I pulled back and recognized the impulse to jump in and help, which happens to me a thousand times a…
We all know that French girls have that special je ne sais quoi (so much so that it’s inspired countless essays on this very site). When it comes to their hair, the style is nonchalant—and yet, somehow also skillfully cultivated. It’s hair that’s air-dries, falls just right, and retains that slightly tousled movement that gives no hint of effort or styling. So how exactly do Jeanne Damas, Brigitte Bardot, Jane Birkin, and more do it?Hairstylist and French girl herself Daphné Narcy has an idea: It all starts how you wash your hair. “You may be damaging your hair without even…
