Innholdsfortegnelse for June - July 2017 i Harper's Bazaar Australia

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Elle Macpherson are two of BAZAAR’s longstanding favourite cover stars and I have always admired that they are also so much more than models — savvy businesswomen, as hardworking as they are beautiful. So when we shot Elle for this month’s Luxury Issue cover, I thought, “Who better to interview her than Rosie?” After all,they have so much in common — from star signs (Aries) to lingerie (both have their own ranges) to a shared passion for The Super Elixir (Rosie’s a devout fan of Elle’s product). But the conversation, which took place on Rosie’s 30th birthday, revealed so much more. Both women are at turning points in their lives — Rosie is soon to give birth to her first child, and Elle is at the…

“Once I’m asleep, I am gone. There could be fire alarms going off and I still wouldn’t wake up.” 9:00AM What time do I wake up? I wish I could say something productive, but it honestly depends. Sometimes I wake up at nine and get on with my day. Sometimes I’ll stay in until two in the afternoon and have a bed day. I tend to lie around for a bit. When I’m not working, it’s nice to have some downtime and not have to stress about getting up. I live in London with two flatmates, and one is one of my best friends. It’s like a constant sleepover. In the morning, she’ll come into my room or I’ll run down to hers. We met through mutual friends about eight…

KITSCHY GRAPHICS Whether it’s trippy mandala prints at Givenchy, psychedelic florals at Chloé or graphic chain-link patterns at Gucci, retro prints are a key investment for the season. Wear them paired with clashing sequins or vintage-inspired accessories. SORBET HUES Pastel pink and turquoise, powder blue and soft yellow are key shades in both ready-to-wear and accessories. Take the look head to toe (Gucci, Altuzarra), or pair with dark neutrals. WHITE BOOTS A little bit ’60s space age, a lot fabulous. Do you need them? No. Do you want them? Oh, yes. FUZZY COATS This season’s must-have outerwear makes a statement. The key is a lush, fuzzy texture or wild print. Take it even further with an eye-popping colour (canary yellow, anyone?) or keep things neutral and comforting by opting…

 “Omega’s women’s watches have always been incredible,” Cindy Crawford says. Exhibit A: the brand’s vintage timepieces that BAZAAR was lucky enough to shoot while they were in town to be exhibited in the new Sydney store. Crawford, a long-time ambassador of Omega (also in town) has played an important role in this long history. Model/brand collaborations might be so hot right now, but they’re not new. The supermodel and Omega paired up as early as 1995. “You never had that conversation with your agent, like, ‘What’s your brand?’ But you start understanding, Cindy Crawford is the brand, and we all work for her. I work for her too.” “I think part of the reason they started working with me was they wanted a fashion voice,”Crawford says. “They had race car…

 “life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. ”This quote has been attributed to many people,includingAmerican writers George Carlin and Maya Angelou, but today I’m giving the attribution to Dale Marcovitz,the fabulous Tiffany & Co. guide who has worked for the American jeweller for 37 years and now hosts grand tours of the iconic Fifth Avenue New York store. She’s standing next to the rare Tiffany Yellow Diamond — a whopping 128. 54 carats — when she delivers the quote. The diamond isn’t for sale, as it’s priceless,but upstairs in a private suite that has been temporarily transformed into a rainforest there are plenty more beautiful gems available to purchase,albeit only to an exclusive group of customers. Tiffany…

IT’S THE OLDEST ADAGE IN BEAUTY. One backed by science, apparently. Say it with me:a perfectly symmetrical face is the most beautiful. But if anyone knows Dr Joseph Hkeik — cosmetic physician to Sydney’s fashionable and famous set — that’s the first myth he dispels during your introductory consultation. Here goes the script: “Perfection lacks character,” he assures us. (Cue comforting pat on back. ) “Anyone can measure a face and make it symmetrical. ” (Cue dramatic pause as he examines our furrowed brow, followed by every pore of our sun-wizened skin. ) The verdict: “We need to enhance your natural aesthetic and make your face and skin its most beautiful. (And here comes the clincher …) “But there’s beauty in the unexpected. ” They’re words you’re more likely to…

PONYTRAILS: Unbottling the real reason you keep returning to the same haircare brands Do you ever find yourself sniffing wistfully in the haircare aisle of the supermarket? Or relaxing a little deeper into a salon chair as wafts of your favourite shampoo float over from the basin? There’s something to be said for the nostalgia evoked by the smell of haircare products. While it may have been sheer luck that Herbal Essences created one of the most recognisable fragrances of the ’70s and ’80s, it has since devoted an entire department to tracking scent trends. New labels such as Oribe, Ouai and R+Co are likewise investing equal parts in fragrance development and formulations. In fact, formulas sometimes take a back seat. R+Co founder Howard McLaren explains how they “stripped…

It’s a challenging concept, sitting right at the intersection of irony, fine art and fashion, but LouisVuitton’s limited-edition collaboration with renowned NewYork-based artist Jeff Koons is winning us over. Koons has reworked his Gazing Ball series of large-scale paintings, reproducing five works by the old masters onto some of LV’s iconic bags including the Speedy, the Neverfull and the Keepall, adding a splash of big, shiny letters crediting the original artists. A signature Koons element is the inclusion of his iconic rabbit as a bag charm. “I wanted to have something that could show immediately ‘This is a Jeff Koons bag’,” he explains. The collection was launched last month with an exclusive dinner at the Louvre museum in Paris, with the tables set up beneath the Mona Lisa in celebration.…

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley The model and businesswoman interviewed Elle Macpherson for this month’s cover story,“When Elle Met Rosie”. The pair talked babies, bodies, business and — to team with the theme of the issue — luxury. “Good healthcare is a luxury to me,” Huntington-Whitely says in an outtake from the interview. “It’s a sad reality, but in the world we live in it’s a luxury to have good healthcare. And I can see that being able to be true to myself is a luxury. Then, as a sidenote and on a more superficial level,first-class travel!”A woman after our own heart. Danielle Solier “Lindy’s hair was quite a process. We had to go from darkest brown to bronde, which is the shade we decided on to enhance her skin tone. It took…

“THESE DAYS, EVERYONE WEARS SNEAKERS SO OFTEN …” says Salvatore Ferragamo women’s footwear design director Paul Andrew, looking down at my navy blue Nikes. I laugh nervously. We’re in the Ferragamo showroom in Milan, surrounded by the sophisticated heels and dress flats Andrew has designed as part of his first collection for the iconic brand, and I’m wearing … a sports shoe. He’s not judging, though. After all, not even the house of Ferragamo is immune to the allure of sneakers. What he is doing is fixing a problem. “Up until the 1980s, people didn’t wear sneakers, they wore formal dress shoes,and that meant their feet were narrower and more enclosed. Also,everyone naturally had a lot more collagen on the ball of their foot, which is why I’ve added padding…

“Each season we look at defining the female body in a way that exposes a new part that is as sensual as it is strong.” KACEY DEVLIN talks like a true creative. By which I mean she speaks in images and feelings instead of facts and figures,and a question rarely has a simple answer. For example, when I ask the designer what inspired her to start her label, Kacey/Devlin, three years ago, she speaks for five minutes about empowering modern women and “redefining the female form” through clothes. It all starts to border on the philosophical,but then she catches you off-guard with some real talk about the brand’s five-year plan or the importance of a consumer-facing business model. That mix is what caught the eye of the judging panel at…

WANT TO KNOW what beauty shopping in the not-so-distant future will look like? Customisable. “Brands are doing a fantastic job of tapping into the customer’s desire to have the best possible collection of products for their individual needs and wants, either by making customised products to order or by giving the customer an opportunity to mix their own products at home,” explains Jacob Stanley, Mecca’s head of education. From foundation faultlessly blended to match your skin tone by Shiseido and Lancôme, to creating an exclusive lipstick shade matched to a picture on your iPhone (try theliplab. com. au) to — courtesy of Wella — a bespoke prescrictive haircare program. Developments in technology such as high-quality cameras on phones, improvements in iOS and Android, and artificial intelligence are allowing hyperpersonalisation in…

Bondi fitness-fashion queen VERA YAN, co-founder of Nimble Activewear, shares her contact-book love CLASS ACTION “I get up at six to exercise. It’s the only way I’ll actually fit it in. Nothing quite sets me up like yoga. My favourite studio isThis isYoga in Clovelly [Sydney]. Persia’s [Juliet] classes at BodyMindLife at Bondi are equally divine. Some days I also throw in a HIIT session,either at Fit1 in Rose Bay orAgoga at Bondi (their Signature and Leaner classes kick butt). Living in Bondi,the coastal run is another incredible way to start the day. It’s great solitary time for the mind. ” HER WORKOUT WARDROBE “My go-to outfit at the moment is our Lauren 7/8 tights in Splash print (super flattering on all body shapes),our Grace sports bra in black (I…

“I am rooted in the past, but I always look to the future.” Over earl grey tea and homemade blueberry muffins at her kitchen table, the jewellery designer Carolina Bucci lets me in on a secret. “The family safe was in my childhood bedroom, hidden behind a painting,” she says. “At night, before going out to dinner or to the theatre, my mother would unroll all the jewellery on my bed and let me try things on. I remember it like a vivid dream. ” Bucci is kind-eyed and softly spoken, wearing sherbet-pink Zara culottes and a chunky knit from The Row that envelops her slender frame. She belongs to a jewellery dynasty that dates back to 1885, when her great-grandfather opened a workshop in Florence, specialising in pocket-watch repairs.…

My style is simple, elegant but sexy. I mix a lot of UP-AND-COMING BRANDS [10] with designer pieces. BALMAIN [3, 4] is one of my go-tos. I’m not a huge fan of prints; I prefer SOLID TONES [13], and I love jackets that CINCH AT THE WAIST [1]. These SHOES [2, 11] are comfortable but fashionable. For day-to-day jewellery, I love MARIA TASH [5]. I want everything from ZUHAIR MURAD [6, 8]. I never leave home without MOROCCANOIL TREATMENT [7], and the Dry Texture Spray creates an effortless look while still giving long-lasting hold. Chanel makes my FAVOURITE BAGS [9] — they’re classy but still so cool. I have had my eye on this Repossi ring that makes it look like you’re wearing a DIAMOND [12] between your fingers. I’m…

RACHEL MUSCAT has to push her phone interview with BAZAAR back by 40 minutes because she’s stuck in Los Angeles’s notorious traffic after a full day of meetings with PharrellWilliams. “No matter how many times I come here, I’m still bad at judging the best time of day to catch a taxi or an Uber,” she apologises. Muscat is in LA a lot. In her role as global collaborations director of adidas Originals, she has forged highly successful partnerships with some of the city’s highest-profile residents, including Pharrell, Kanye West, fashion designer Jeremy Scott and Opening Ceremony founders Carol Lim and Humberto Leon. With some of her most notable recent projects including Pharrell’s Supercolor Superstar sneakers collection and West’s Yeezy range, it’s no surprise Muscat is one of fashion’s most…

CHECKS, tweeds, ladylike handbags and quilted jackets all sound like the perfect accompaniments for a weekend away in the English countryside. Instead, they became the uniform for many fashion week attendees at the A/W 2017 shows. Perhaps the current Princess Diana exhibition at Kensington Palace in London has inspired a new appreciation for early ’80s Sloane Ranger chic (just add pie-crust-collar blouses to the clothing items above). Or maybe the incessant rain at Paris fashion week simply forced everyone to wear their most sensible, weather-defying wardrobe items. Either way, the end result was a street style scene that looked far more determined than decadent.…

The founder of the shoe brand beloved by the likes of Poppy Delevingne and Olivia Palermo is no stranger to collaboration (in fact,Edgardo Osorio has worked with both women), but his latest partnership is quite unique. This month, Osorio releases a capsule collection exclusively on Matchesfashion.com featuring a print he collaborated on with luxury wallpaper company de Gournay, famous for its handpainted panels inspired by original 18th- and 19th-century designs. HARPER’S BAZAAR: How did the collaboration come about? EDGARDO OSORIO:Well, I’ve always been obsessed with interiors — I think I’m almost looking more at interiors than at fashion. I am very passionate about decoration and design, and whenever I am travelling I go to antiques fairs, I go to the flea markets. In terms of my relationship with de…

“Having someone as powerful, challenging and inspiring as Alber was like a breath of fresh air. It took me back to what I was doing when I started this company.” FRÉDÉRIC MALLE THE HISTORY OF SCENT is a tale of encounters between couturiers and perfumers: Coco Chanel and Ernest Beaux;Christian Dior and Edmond Roudnitska. However, few have been as enthusiastic as Frédéric Malle upon joining forces with Alber Elbaz, the creative genius formerly of Lanvin and Yves Saint Laurent. Their meeting was evidently an artistic coup de foudre, the fragrance it has led to — Superstitious — an expression of fraternal love. “You don’t meet an Alber every five minutes!” Malle declares as we discuss the collaboration at his store in Piccadilly’s Burlington Arcade in London. “There is something aboutAlber…

“You can’t HORMONALLY MANIPULATE your body indefinitely. There will be consequences.” MANY WOMEN WILL RELATE to 39-year-old Rachel’s* morning ritual. Six am: wake; stretch; whip up a protein smoothie; coerce kids out of bed. But here it gets what some might perceive as hairy. At 6. 30am, she quietly slips into her bathroom and injects herself in the stomach. No, she’s not an ice addict or a diabetic. In fact, size-zero Rachel believes she is in her best shape ever. And she attributes it all to her prescription-only twice-daily hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) injections — a hormone derived from the urine of pregnant women that allows her to exist on 500 calories a day. The theory that hCG could help people lose weight — particularly from stubborn spots where abnormal…

“The unexpected was key: her flowers were always a talking point.” “Flower pieces are the craze of the moment,” wrote British florist and author Constance Spry in Harper’s BAZAAR in May 1932. At the time, her own exuberant arrangements were filling the houses of the great and good, including ravishing concoctions reproducing Dutch old masters: “Against the Queen Anne green, the gold of the drawing room or the pine panels of the dining room, they unobtrusively add a graceful and personal finale. ” That theatrical “finale” is the giveaway. Spry liked drama, wowing society by mixing hothouse flowers with old man’s beard and kale leaves, using lichen-covered branches, decorating tables with massive violets, standing an amazing cactus in the hall. The unexpected was key: her flowers were always a talking…

Billabong Retreat Six hours before I head to Billabong Retreat, I accidentally smash my iPhone on the unforgiving concrete platform at Clovelly beach. After 10 seconds of therapeutic swearing,I decide to take this as a sign, book my device into an Apple store for repair and leave it there,banished,for the weekend. It’s not as if the staff at the yoga retreat, an eco resort in Maraylya near the Hawkesbury River, about an hour’s drive from Sydney CBD, exactly encourage the use of phones anyway. Pre-arrival notes tell you devices aren’t allowed in public areas, there’s no Wi-Fi, alcohol is “strongly discouraged”, and if you want to smoke you’ll be doing it in the car park. But that’s about as bossy as it gets (read:not very,compared with other, more hardcore detox…
