Indice dei contenuti per February 2019 in Harper's Bazaar

The theme of our February issue is love, so it seems fitting that our cover star is Jennifer Lopez, who has held a special place in our hearts since she started her career in the 1990s. In a candid interview, Lopez talks about how her journey of self-love ultimately paved the way for her relationship with boyfriend Alex Rodriguez. This issue is also dedicated to all the Spring 2019 fashions that are making us swoon. We revisit the statement sunnies that were all over the runways; we highlight our favorite trends from the shows on the “Bazaar Loves” pages; and we enlisted artist Genieve Figgis—whose dreamy paintings helped inspire the pastel wonderland of Marc Jacobs’s latest collection—to reimagine some of the season’s most extravagant looks. Think of the issue as…

LONG THE SCOURGE of the garden, weeds—the uninvited volunteers of the natural world—are being welcomed into the highest circles of style. A growing band of aesthetes from artists to designers is celebrating the untamed exuberance of roadside splendor and uncultivated fields in the latest floristry, fabrics, and frocks. On runways and in castles, the pampered rose and pristine calla lily have been traded for the unfussy charms of frothy Queen Anne’s lace and twining tendrils of morning glory—humble beauties that have always been waiting just outside the door. BOOKS GREATEST HITS This essential volume of Toni Morrison’s nonfiction writing from the past 40 years manages to be prescient, timely, and timeless.

THE UPCOMING exhibition season is dominated by art that explores what it looks like—literally—to be a member of society. Tracing the U.S. back to its roots, “Artistic Encounters With Indigenous America,” at NewYork’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, examines tensions between the continent’s existing inhabitants and those settlers who first claimed ownership of it. And the numerous retrospectives and surveys, by artists such as Siah Armajani at the Met Breuer and NariWard at the New Museum in NewYork, are centered on work that confronts issues of displacement, democracy, and the refugee experience. Meanwhile, many NewYork gallery shows are focusing on art that offers a new, expansive view of identity and belonging, from Lynette Yiadom-Boakye’s paintings of fictitious black characters at Jack Shainman to James Cohan’s monumental group show, “Borders,” which challenges…

FRAGRANCE “I’m a proper perfume girl.” Her latest project: The Jo Malone London Birthstones collection, which features limited-edition caps with a birthstone of each month that can be paired with any of its fragrance bottles. Her inspiration: “The idea came about because as a kid I loved flipping through jewelry catalogues. What I always wanted for Christmas was for someone to buy me birthstone jewelry.” The scent of love: “Jo Malone London Red Roses. I’ve never met a person who doesn’t love the way it smells.” Love lesson: “My children have taught me everything [about love]. When you’re up at 3 a.m. with a child who’s throwing up and you’re seeing double, you realize that this is what love is. When it comes to men, the buck stops pretty quickly…

This season, Lancôme taps into the power of the exclusive Grand Rose Extracts—a concentrated blend of three rose extracts—to deliver visible, lasting benefits, all within an indulgent formula. The collection’s star product, the Absolue Revitalizing & Brightening Soft Cream, is different from other luxury creams thanks to its unique, transformative texture: Upon application, it feels lush and nurturing. The cream then thins into a serum-like lotion before cocooning skin in a plump layer, leaving your complexion radiant, and skin firmed and hydrated for 24 hours. Fine lines and wrinkles appear diminished, and skin appears rejuvenated. For the complete Absolue experience, prep with Revitalizing Oléo-Serum and pat on Revitalizing Eye Cream, both infused with Grand Rose Extracts. PRESENTED BY LANCÔME…

ZENDAYA The 22-year-old actress and Tommy Hilfiger collaborator talks family ties and keeping it real My dad’s Queen Nefertiti pendant He had it made in the ’70s. It’s my favorite piece of jewelry. It’s not mine technically, but maybe one day he’ll pass it on to me. All of my siblings have their eyes on it. Collaborating with Tommy Hilfiger When I was first presented with the opportunity, I was told that Tommy Hilfiger himself wanted to talk to me about it. And sure enough he was on the phone, explaining how he wanted me to be as creative as I wanted. He told me how I would be able to truly have creative control from concept to clothing, down to the font on the packaging. I was in heaven…

“TRAVEL IS NOW more about the experiences that enrich our lives beyond just relaxation or sheer indulgence,” says David Prior, a cofounder and the CEO of a new bespoke travel club, PRIOR, whose members already include many from the upper echelons of fashion. “Often it’s about learning to improve oneself and to engage with another culture by way of acquiring a new skill or appreciation.” The concept of travel as an educational endeavor is not a new one. The Grand Tour of yesteryear, once considered the apotheosis of a young gentleman or lady’s education, looms in our collective imagination as a romantic, expansive voyage for the well-heeled to steep themselves in classicism and its monuments. The wanderlust set has a contemporary answer to the GrandTour: This new generation of travelers…

BEST SHAMPOO COLORIST SHARON DORRAM SWEARS BY GENTLE CLEANSERS “Hair care is the key to good color. I’m a brunette with honey highlights, but I’m pretty active—I swim regularly and work out—so I shower almost every day, which is not ideal when you use bleach. It takes a toll on my color and gives my hair a dry, crispy, cotton-candy texture. That’s why I use sulfate-free shampoos—or at least ones without sodium lauryl sulfate, a really harsh ingredient that’s basically detergent. I love Leonor Greyl Shampooing au Miel [$35]. Many people think sulfate-free cleansers don’t lather enough, but they’re probably not using them correctly. I put some in my palms and emulsify it with the spray from the shower, then I rub it to build a soft lather before applying…

It’s not easy for Jennifer Lopez to blend into a crowd—especially when she’s dressed in a blue “Value Shop” vest making the rounds of your local superstore followed by a film crew. But as someone who spent three years shooting in public on the streets of New York for her TV show Shades of Blue, Lopez was completely unfazed by the presence of strangers on the set of her new movie, Second Act. “All of the scenes from the store were shot inside a real superstore [in Queens], so people were actually shopping while we were filming,” she says. “The paparazzi were everywhere,” says longtime producing partner Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas. “In scenes where the actors were speaking quietly, you could sometimes even hear them in the background whispering ‘J. Lo! Over…

In my high school—and maybe in yours?—we had this Valentine’s Day tradition called “Hugs and Kisses,” and it was the bane of my goddamned existence. Here’s how it worked: A few weeks before the holiday, you’d fill out your order form, paying a quarter or so apiece to send Hershey’s Hugs to your friends and Hershey’s Kisses to your crushes, and even mixing it up a little bit if you felt like being cute or silly or coy. Then, on Valentine’s Day, the student government officers would run around at lunchtime delivering giant (or not-so-giant) transparent plastic bags of candy so everyone could see exactly how much people loved you. It’s funny, looking back on Hugs and Kisses, to see how neatly it prefigured the arrival of social media—how, on…
