There is nothing more fabulous than an original woman. In this issue, Iris Apfel, the self-described “geriatric starlet” in the new Albert Maysles documentary, Iris, answers your questions, from how to dress your age to the secret to longevity in fashion and in love (page 108). Actress and comedian Amy Sedaris embraces her younger self when it comes to style, saying, “I’m 54 years old and I still dress like I did when I was 12” (page 158). And the equally funny Chelsea Handler, who stars in a Netfix docu-comedy series later this year, waxes poetic about why life gets better with age. As she says, “I just post my topless photos and move on” (page 156). Enjoy the issue. Dior ring, $930. 800-929-DIOR.…

IT’S NO SECRET that dressing your age can be tricky. Most of us have succumbed to—or at least witnessed—a few missteps along the way: too tight, too young, too fashion. But despite all of the noes out there, I like to look at the yeses. That’s precisely why our Fabulous at Every Age issue exists. This time we’ve highlighted key pieces that work no matter how many birthdays you’ve had. One of this season’s best is the classic trench. Trenches always make me think of the coat that Catherine Deneuve donned for her louche turn in Belle de Jour back in 1967, though she wears the style as well as ever today. My favorite version for spring is the suede one that Christopher Bailey did at Burberry Prorsum (after all,…

The designer’s life by the numbers 1 cabin without electricity 35 laps in the pool 15 outfit changes 7:00 A.M. I use the alarm of my husband [accessories designer Jérôme Dreyfuss], but we almost don’t need any clock to wake up—we have inner timers. The first thing I do is boil water for my tea. Right now I’m having chai with rice milk. Sometimes I’m into coffee, but my tastes are changing; I’m not very loyal. 7:10 A.M. I wake up my 11-year-old son, Tal, and pick out his clothes. If I leave it to him, he’ll wear only joggings. He likes the sweatshirts and sweaters from my H&M collaboration, and if my husband’s sweaters shrink they go to Tal—he has a hundred Comme des Garçons sweaters with the little…

Social media? I don’t look at that stuff. … I just post my topless photos and move on. RIGHT BEFORE my 40th birthday, my friend Mary said to me, “You’re turning 40 years old. At some point you’re going to have to live alone.” I was like, “What?! Why would you say it like that?” She said, “Well, your dog, Chunk, is not getting any younger either.” i was like, “Don’t talk about me and my dog aging.” I wish I had known when i was younger that I was going to be successful and have a great life when I got older—have a house, be able to do stuff for my friends and my family. if someone had told me that when I was in my 20s waiting tables,…

ELISABETH MOSS Bedside-table staples: A bunch of scripts, a cup of coffee, a candle, a Mini Jambox, and Smith’s Rosebud Salve, which I’m addicted to. It’s the only stuff I can put on my lips. I’m watching: The Sopranos, Friday Night Lights, Breaking Bad—you know, the shows that you’re supposed to see. But I also watch The Real Housewives and Project Runway—superrelaxing, comforting stuff. I love to watch TV in bed. Food for thought: I’ve been going to Cafe Fiorello in New York since I was 11, when it was half the size it is now. I always order from the antipasto bar. Guilty pleasures: I like red wine, particularly a blend called the Prisoner, which is made by Orin Swift. And I love a little bit of chocolate in the…

MARCH 21–APRIL 20 TAURUS APRIL 21–MAY 21 Your ideas will go down well this month, especially if you’re making dramatic changes to your routine. However, remember that there will always be people who feel they have to object on principle. Make it clear that you won’t be undermined. MOTTO OF THE MONTH: Don’t expect both ends of the sugarcane to be sweet. GEMINI MAY 22–JUNE 21 Study your track record and decide what the next phase of your life should entail. That doesn’t mean you’ll move in a completely new direction, but it will indicate that you need to reevaluate the way things have gone compared with what you anticipated. MOTTO OF THE MONTH: You can’t gather roses if you’re terrified of thorns. CANCER JUNE 22–JULY 23 It may seem…

It’s a chilly afternoon, and Billy and Julie Macklowe’s Fifth Avenue apartment is teeming with frogs—of the helium-filled variety, that is. Brought in for the Bazaar shoot, the balloons bump gently against the ceiling of the Macklowes’ gleaming white kitchen, much to the delight of their seven-year-old daughter, Zoë, who gets to keep them as a special treat. “She loves all things frog,” says her mother. “I’m glad to say that no live frogs have ever entered our apartment. We got the dog instead.” The animal in question, an impeccably behaved black miniature poodle puppy named Licorice, regards the balloons with suspicion. Much has changed in the Macklowes’ lives since they moved into the building, a 1978 monument to postmodernism designed by Philip Johnson, as newlyweds in 2005. Originally a…

FOR NEARLY 150 YEARS, this magazine has prided itself on its creativity. from stunning covers to fantastical shoots to brilliantly inventive writing, Bazaar has always been a place for experimentation. This is most evident in the range of gorgeous hairstyles featured over the years, such as the soft and touchable looks of the 1950s to the wet and wild tresses of the 1980s to the layered chop of the late 1990s and the long and loose waves of 2014. “as we know, fashion changes like the wind, and so does hair,” says Patrick Melville, a new york hairstylist who has frequently collaborated with the magazine. “Bazaar didn’t hold you back—they were and are very open to change.” Celebrity hairstylist sam McKnight agrees. “Bazaar has always had a great eye for…

Olympia Scarry recently turned 32, an age that brings her a feeling of relief. “I feel that I’m in a much more peaceful place now,” she says. “When you come into your 30s, you’re more conscious of time somehow—in a good way.” In a way, Scarry’s consciousness has been instrumental to her success both as a visual artist and as a fashion muse to designers such as Raf Simons at Dior and Riccardo Tisci at Givenchy (she wore a custom black lace burka designed by Tisci as part of a performance piece at Art Basel Miami Beach in 2010). Her own work is just as boundarybreaking, whether it’s her Rodin-esque wax, Black Hand; Licks, stacked rock-salt towers meant to attract local wildlife; or the skeletal house-like installation she constructed last…

Dating can be stressful when you’re a countercultural icon. “It’s weird,” Kim Gordon tells me. “It’s definitely difficult to meet people, and it’s rare when you actually connect with somebody. And if you do connect with them, then maybe it takes a while to figure out that you really like them. Or then you start balking for some reason—you know, it’s a different time in your life when you’re not meeting someone who you’re going to start a life with,” she says. And then there’s that fear of being alone or that you might never meet someone else …” “I don’t know,” Gordon muses. “It’s kind of like being on acid.” Gordon, 61, is calling from Los Angeles. While she’ll forever be associated with New York from her days as…

When I first meet Veronica Chou at her billionaire father, Silas Chou’s, palatial apartment on New York’s Madison Avenue, she immediately takes me to her guest bedroom closet. Though wearing a nondescript camel V-neck sweater and skinny jeans, the 30-year-old has accessorized with navy-and-oxblood pointy-toed Céline fats, a larger-than-life Rolex watch, and a bevy of diamonds, including a massive emerald-cut engagement ring from her husband, Russian-born businessman Evgeny Klyucharev. “This is Mary Katrantzou for Adidas,” she says, as she pulls a Technicolor bomber jacket from an overstufed rack. “I might wear a long dress and this.” It’s the Saturday of New York Fashion Week in mid-February, and Chou, who divides her time between Beijing and London, is deciding what to wear to the Alexander Wang show later that evening. “Alex…

Recently, something I’d been dreading for years happened: I gave my 21-year-old daughter my black leather J Brand skinnies. For good. This startlingly philanthropic gesture came about after something that should have been even more traumatic (but wasn’t really) had come to pass. My husband uttered the dreaded words: “old,” “those,” “you,” “for,” “too,” “are,” and not necessarily in that order. When I say traumatic, being told that tight leather leggings have become unbecoming is clearly on the broken-nail end of the disastrous-experiences spectrum. But still. One morning (a while back now, but these wounds take time to heal) my friend Fiona, the wife of a well-known flm and theater producer, wafted downstairs in her favorite orange maharishi combat pants. The well-known film and theater producer took one look and…

We never saw my mother in a pair of pants—not ever. I just think pants give it all away, you know? I’M AT a tricky place: I’m 54 years old and I still dress like I did when I was 12. my closet and my storage unit are full of clothes I’ve had my whole life. I love to play dress-up, as queer as it sounds. When I was younger I’d wear anything that seemed like it had a character or a story behind it, like costumey party dresses and puffy skirts with crinoline under them. I still love those things. Barbie has always been a big influence on my style, especially the way she accessorizes. I still have all my Barbiedoll clothes from when I was young, and I’ve…

ROSY GLOW Spring’s minimal makeup trend is nothing if not office-friendly. After applying foundation, highlight your cheeks with a warm pink powder blush, then make up your eyes with black mascara for a look that says “boss.” WEARABLE TECH If you invest in only one accessory this season (or any season), make it a black shoulder bag big enough to stash all your essentials. Case in point: Jil Sander’s chain-strap version, which is sized to ft that ever-important iPad mini. THE NEW SUIT Office attire is getting a makeover thanks to a heavy dose of pattern play and justthis-side-of-sexy silhouettes. Take your cue from Joseph Altuzarra and anchor a gingham look with polished extras—black heels and a waist-defining belt are musts. STYLIST’S TIP Don stylish frames for geekchic appeal. THE…

LOEWE The new lead of the Spanish house creates an instant obsession right out of the gate Jonathan Anderson challenged all expectations for his debut as creative director of Loewe. The young designer breathed new life into the 169-year-old label for spring, maintaining its luxury craftsmanship and heritage while stripping away any stuffiness or pretension. The entire collection conveys a sense of easy, undone elegance—but the bags are the bread and butter. From slouchy buckets in sandy-colored suede to the must-have woven totes, the new It bags of the season have officially arrived. ALL ASKEW While last season saw a surge in single-statement earrings, spring is ushering in a new approach to asymmetrical adornment: mismatched pairs. Artfully irregular in shape and length, Loewe's geometric drops take the trend into ultra-modern…

I like our camaraderie, our similarities, how we collaborate.” Julianne Moore has just arrived back at her hotel in L.A. after an Oscar nominees’ luncheon. She is resplendent in a poppy-colored Prabal Gurung dress—that perfect shade that makes redheads look as hot as a match. “My style has gotten better, hopefully,” she says, laughing. “It’s like everything—practice makes perfect. There was one year when my kids were little, and every time I was photographed, I was wearing a pair of cargo shorts, a T-shirt, and a bandanna. It was so bad, my publicist was like, ‘Get it together!’ ” Moore got it together and then some. She has been dressing for the…

I was terrified,” Carolyn Murphy says of her introduction to modeling in the early ’90s. Spotted by a scout at 15, the self-described “bookish tomboy” from a Southern military family took some time to come around to the idea. “I’d gone to Paris after 11th grade, then came to New York during my senior year and lived with [Ford Models founder] Eileen Ford during spring break. She was fantastic, so maternal. She had wanted me to stay and finish school there, which was wonderful, but I was terrified of New York City. I didn’t understand the business so much.” Murphy went home to Virginia—the first of several stops and starts to a career that has spanned 26 years and scores of magazine covers and campaigns. At 41, she is still…

LYING ABOUT YOUR AGE is about to get a whole lot easier. Groundbreaking research suggests that you can shave years of your biological age—and looks—with a few simple lifestyle changes. “The body has tremendous reparative capabilities not just to stave of the efects of aging but to reverse them,” says plastic surgeon Darrick Antell, an assistant professor at New York’s Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. best of all, you can begin now. THE DIET THAT WORKS Some of the most intriguing research involves telomeres, the caps at the ends of chromosomes that protect our DNA from damage. Although telomeres shorten naturally with age, smoking, stress, and obesity can speed up the process. “Short telomeres have been associated with higher risks of chronic diseases, including diabetes and some cancers,”…

“Do they think I wear a ball gown to walk down Madison Avenue? I’m sorry.” There are certain things one expects when spending time with Carolina Herrera: colossal chicness, lashings of class, the most perfect white shirt. Falling of the couch with laughter, less so. There’s a lot to learn from Herrera, and style, thankfully, is the least of it. “The most important thing in the world for me is a sense of humor,” she says, reclining in her office in a pencil skirt, a neat sweater, and a fur collar (all of which look fabulous with her Warhol portrait). “You can be with the ugliest man but with the best sense of humor, and you’ll have the best time, right?” Herrera is right about a lot of things. “Do…

As it turns out, making microscopic holes in your face may be the way to get a youthful complexion. if this sounds crazy, allow us to explain. if you’ve ever experienced an antiaging laser (like Fraxel) or a microneedling treatment (like Dermapen), you’ve actually already put hundreds, if not thousands, of holes in your skin. so here’s the question that has doctors debating: Will topical products penetrate better (when applied during and right after these procedures) courtesy of these tiny pathways? “these channels allow a momentary increase in permeability that is hundreds of times the normal degree that topical products can penetrate the skin,” says Jon turk, a new York plastic surgeon. “Depending on the desired target—pigment, thin skin, wrinkles—the appropriate topical serum effect can be accelerated dramatically.” There’s another…

DULL, DRY, damaged, brittle, fat, coarse, thin—these are the inevitable signs of aging hair, which the vast majority of women will encounter. On the positive side: They’re all easily fixable. Here, the latest solutions to take years of your tresses. 1 PREVENT HEAT DAMAGE We know that air-drying is the best way to avoid split ends and breakage from heat styling. But let’s face it, sometimes a blowout is necessary for a polished mane. To shield your hair from the damage that comes with high temperatures, try Alterna’s heat protection spray before styling. It’s packed with vitamins A and C to fight free radicals, plus biotin to strengthen hair and hydrating marine botanicals “that add moisture without weighing hair down,” says stylist Ric Pipino. 2 START WITH YOUR SCALP Remember,…

FABULOUS AT EVERY AGE Five iconoclastic women—Morgane Polanski, Olympia Scarry, Carolyn Murphy, Shirin Neshat, and Kim Gordon—prove that timeless style knows no bounds Portfolio photographed by Mark Abrahams Morgane Polanski has an extraordinary head of thick chestnut-brown hair, and she knows exactly where she got it from. “One half is all my mom’s, and the other half is all my dad’s, so I have twice the normal amount,” the 22-year-old actress says in her cheerful French accent, demonstrating with two hefty pigtails. Her parents, in fact, do have great hair—and quite a lot of it—among other, more notable characteristics: Her mother is the French actress and singer Emmanuelle Seigner, and her father is the legendary film director Roman Polanski. Morgane has been aware of her parents’ fame, and her father’s…

Shirin Neshat is immediately recognizable by her signature kohl eyeliner, which she sweeps beneath each lower lid like calligraphic war paint. “I never go out in public without it,” says the Iranian-born artist, 57, who is otherwise barefaced when we meet in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood, a black scarf wound tightly around her neck. “I go to walk my dog, and I make sure I have my eye makeup on. It gives me a sense of security.” Neshat’s inclination toward self-protection comes with the territory of her work. Her haunting, dramatic photographs and video installations often depict Middle Eastern women as outsiders in their own societies, touching on third-rail issues like martyrdom and exile in a region where equality and basic civil rights for women are often still denied. In Rapture,…

GLOWING SKIN Achieving a fawless complexion “is easier than ever,” says makeup artist Troy Surratt. Apply your foundation with a Beautyblender sponge ($19.95). “Dampen it, then dab the skin starting from the center working out toward the hairline.” SULTRY LIDS To get this modern “smoldering yet graphic Bardot eye,” apply a mocha shadow over your lids to create a subtle contour, says Surratt. Next, rim your lash lines with a black pencil for definition. “Keep it thin over the tear ducts, then go slightly thicker over the center, extending the outer corners to elongate the eyes.” Curl your lashes and finish with mascara. “Neutral lips are classically romantic and add a feminine twist to an edgy eye,” says makeup artist Troy Surratt.
