Harper's Bazaarの April 2013 の目次

Full transparency Fashion at its finest marries the excitement of the new with the best of what's come before. In our Fabulous at Every Age issue, Bazaar aims to do just that, bringing to the table a cross-generational panorama of exceptional women. In that spirit, our cover girl, actress and singer Selena Gomez, reveals what it's like to come of age in the spotlight, grow up gracefully, and become a style star (page 256). Rita Wilson goes behind the scenes with news legend Diane Sawyer, who opens up on everything from her beauty-queen past to how she balances a four-decade career with a successful marriage—and the life lessons she's learned along the way (page 270). The ever iconoclastic Iris Apfel tells us all about her fashion dictums and being a…

I ALWAYS GET EXCITED at the start of a new season, especially when spring is in the air. So the couture shows in Paris felt particularly timely, as designers introduced a garden of delightful creations. When I walked into the Chanel preview with Karl Lagerfeld, he said he was feeling the need to go back to nature. And it was visible in his collection, which was a wonder of freshness and light. To further that outdoorsy spirit, Karl had trees shipped to the Grand Palais, where he turned his runway into a veritable forest. Over lunch, Raf Simons told me about the inspiration for his gorgeous Christian Dior collection, which was set in a garden and looked like a Klimt landscape. At Valentino, the ornate embroidery was reminiscent of a…

EXOTIC ARMANI The designer's latest clutch is a chic new classic It's been said that the simplest designs are the hardest to create, so leave it to the maestro of minimalism, Giorgio Armani, to bring us a bag that's sleek but small and monumental in stature. "I like the strength and elegance of clean lines," says Armani. "However, I like to contrast them with rich materials, such as this precious blue crocodile clutch, made entirely by hand and embellished with an original and refined jewel clasp." While midnight blue is a perfect, go-with-everything spring shade that will work both day and night, there are other delicious hues to choose from, including anthracite, forest green, and burgundy—all in exotic crocodile. Bags that eventually reach iconic status are an exclusive group, and…

6:15 A.M. I wake up between 6:15 and 6:30. Because I have, you know, four kids, I'm quite an early riser! So I naturally wake up at that time, but I always have an alarm as a safety net—in case I have something really important going on and I sleep in for the first time in 20 years. (I don't make Victoria Beckham nighties, so I'll leave it to everybody's imagination what I sleep in.) Then I get in the shower, and because I wake the children up at 7 o'clock, that gives me half an hour to get myself ready. So that half an hour in the morning while I'm getting ready, between showering and washing my face, I'm checking e-mails that have come in overnight, from America. Yes,…

This month, the accessories house Roger Vivier is celebrated in a book featuring the designer's greatest hits. Among Vivier's many big moments, "he was commissioned by Queen Elizabeth to design shoes for the coronation of her husband, George VI," says Inès de la Fressange, Parisian chicster and brand ambassador. MY PRIZE POSSESSION KELLY WEARSTLER "When I was growing up, my mother would take my sister and me shopping at various vintage and antiques stores. She always found the most amazing clutches. She became an avid collector of these treasures and later handed them down to me. Finds like this bag inform how I dress and also my designs." IN BED WITH RICK OWENS 8:00 A.M.

WORK APPOINTMENTS One of the best aspects of my job is finding new international talent to feature on Moda Operandi. I have the chance to see the latest collections from Patrícia Viera and Isolda when I go to Brazil, and from Josh Goot when I'm in Australia. WEEKEND EXCURSIONS Back home in New York, I take road trips upstate with my husband. We stop at little towns in the Hudson Valley. We often fantasize about buying a house, and we love to explore and shop for vintage items for our apartment. I've found so many things that I didn't know I needed until I saw them—like a florist's sink that I converted into a shelf. PACKING LIST I can't wait to wear my tailored Stella Jean sundresses—they're so easy—as well…

WHAT'S A TREND YOU NOTICE IN FOOD NOW? We see a lot of talented chefs who don't have enough money to open a huge restaurant, so they're serving a handful of clients. An open kitchen, a little counter—like a sushi place. Chef's Table at Brooklyn Fare market set the trend. IS THERE ANY TREND YOU DISLIKE? Molecular cuisine is not really something I enjoy. And I don't like those 40-course menus where I have to spend five hours at the table. WHAT'S YOUR HOME- COOKING ROUTINE? I entertain in the summer, but in the winter it's about family. Sometimes we invent a restaurant at home. My son Adrien, who is nine, does the graphic design and is the sous-chef. Sometimes we do Chinese, sometimes French, sometimes Italian. We serve early…

20s JOSÉPHINE DE LA BAUME Newlywed Parisian actress and singer, age 28 DE LA BAUME may reside in the public eye, but the star refuses to diet, favors little makeup, and doesn't go a day without having a bite of chocolate. DIET "I love food. Dieting is torture for me, so I eat a little bit of everything. Six years ago, I became gluten intolerant, but being French and not eating bread is difficult, and I can't completely avoid it. Asian cuisines are my favorite. I love Japanese, Vietnamese, and Thai fish and soup dishes." BREAKFAST "I am grumpy, not hungry, in the morning. It takes me a while to connect with the world, and I start my day with a Starbucks soy latte with one pump of vanilla and…

Mixing your stem cells into skin care is the newest wrinkle-erasing strategy. Alex Kuczynski tests it out. The good news: I wasn't fat. The bad news: I wasn't fat. In order to collect enough fat tissue to extract my stem cells—the politically combustible wonder cells capable of regenerating damaged tissue and organs—the surgeon would have to do mini liposuction in not one but four places. So Doug Steinbrech, a New York plastic surgeon, sucked and snorkeled away, siphoning two ounces of my fat into a couple of plastic bags that looked, by the end of the appointment, as if they were stuffed with Chef Boyardee leftovers. Packed into a cooler, my fat went via a medical courier truck to Personal Cell Sciences, a New Jersey company that last year announced…

GIORGIO ARMANI is a true friend. His kindness has come into my life in many shapes and sizes (and, yes, ladies, loads of gorgeous clothes!), whether it's sharing his vacation home in Italy with me and Danny for our first anniversary or spending the afternoon playing with my daughter and her favorite rag doll. Or that he has never forgotten my birthday: Every year, it is the note that accompanies the gift that is the treasure. I've saved them all. My love for Giorgio is endless and my admiration ever expanding, as he never stops challenging himself in new and beautiful ways. —JULIA ROBERTS Dress, pants, $2,795, clutch, $5,885, and cuff, $1,995, Giorgio Armani. 212-988-9191.

Selena Gomez has two loves in life: movies and music. Those also happen to be her careers, and she says there are two corresponding Selenas, each with a distinct style. The actress favors flirty elegance, opting for Christian Cota and Marchesa on the red carpet. The pop star is all about fringe, flannel, and rock 'n' roll, in pieces from Wildfox and L.A.'s Brandy Melville. At 20, Selena moves between looks—and incarnations—with ease. Offstage and offscreen she has as much fun kicking back and listening to the Lumineers in her sweats ("I bought too many—I'm obsessed") as she does posing for a shoot. Her favorite fashion moment with Bazaar? "My Dolce & Gabbana sailor stripes. They were so fun!" And she says she pampers herself with Olay facial products and…

Deciding what to wear to work in the fall and winter is relatively easy; a few key investment pieces in a dark palette tend to go the distance. You can throw a CÉline blazer over almost anything, or rotate a pencil skirt (leather or wool) from the Row and a pair of gorgeous ChloÉ pants as often as you like without looking one-note (as long as you play around with your accessories and tops). But once the weather warms up, looking office-appropriate gets trickier. And the list of…

*AND HOW TO WEAR IT NOW FINDING THE RIGHT WATCH is a bit like finding a husband. Pick a great one and you'll keep it forever; pick the wrong one and you'll be dying to get rid of it after a year or two. Ana Maria Pimentel, accessories director at Neiman Marcus, took it a step further: She started her marriage with a watch. "Instead of an engagement ring, I got engaged with a 1954 Rolex Oyster," she says. The relationship women have with their watches is sacred: Claire Distenfeld, the 27-year-old owner of the concept boutique Fivestory, on Manhattan's Upper East Side, remembers mourning the loss of a Franck Muller CintrÉe Curvex watch that she'd received as a graduation present. "I had to take a four-year hiatus after losing…

FEW CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS conjure the kind of connection between person and place as Ed Ruscha does with Southern California. This month, Ruscha's photographs of Los Angeles in the 1960s and '70s are the subject of "In Focus," an exhibition at L.A.'s Getty Center. His inspiration "is this city," he tells Bazaar. "San Francisco would not have given me this, nor New York, nor Chicago. But Los Angeles had it." "It" is the juxtaposition of Hollywood's rich history with a sense of transience. The images feature buildings that Ruscha felt had "perspective drama. Some look a little tacky, but they were contemporary. I like anything that tries to sort of lurch out of the picture," he says. "I didn't want them to have too much nostalgia." Time flies, though, Ruscha admits:…

I was 26 when I first noticed that my hair was turning gray. I'd been waiting for it. My father went gray when he was roughly the same age. But he was a guy, and so good-looking that his nickname was Tyrone—as in Power. When he married my much younger mother, the rehearsal dinner guests sprayed their hair silver as a joke, and in photographs it actually looks glamorous. My gray hair wasn't silver or glamorous. It looked very much like the Farrow & Ball paint color Mouse's Back. I may well paint my next kitchen Mouse's Back, but neither my face nor my outlook was remotely enhanced by a tone its own manufacturer describes as "a quiet, neutral … stone or drab colour." I went straight to the colorist.…

THE DESTINATION There's so much I love about Los Angeles—the weather, the spirit, my friends there. THE HOTEL The Chateau Marmont—always. I like to have friends in my room. I'll get lots of candies and goodies, and we'll order room service and hang out outside, watching over West Hollywood. I really like being "at home" in some way wherever I am. I get treats from the deli or pharmacy and snacks from Erewhon, a huge natural grocery store. In my downtime I read. Alice Munro is a favorite, as is James Salter. Joan Didion's Play It As It Lays is a West Coast must-read. And gotta hike Laurel Canyon. THE STYLE I dress casually for New York already—even more so in L.A. I love Anne Demeulemeester—anything black and white with…

LAUREN BACALL TAUGHT Humphrey Bogart how to whistle with her lips, but it was her killer cheekbones that really made him pay attention. Sure, she had good genes—and youth—going for her. But it was the fierce angles of her face that the camera loved and that later helped her age so well. "Strong cheekbones reflect light and add symmetry," says Fredric Brandt, the New York and Miami dermatologist. "All classic beauties have them." Even for those of us without epic bone structure, cheekbones are the scaffolding that holds up the face. Unfortunately, as we age, our cheekbones lose volume, and without that underlying structure, skin and muscle start to slide, forming decidedly unlovely jowls and folds. Until recently, the standard line of attack against a sagging visage was either plumping…

SELENA GOMEZ is sitting in a booth at Hooters, reminiscing. Hooters is something of a Gomez family tradition—one that's slightly more wholesome than it sounds. "My mom and dad had me when they were young," she says of her now divorced parents, as she dips a fried pickle into a mysterious sauce. "And when I was seven, my dad would go to Hooters to watch Spurs games. But he started noticing that when I would come, with my little pigtails, all the waitresses would be like, 'Hey!' So he ended up half spending time with me but with all those cute girls coming over." She laughs. "And that kind of became our thing." (As for Hooters's celebrated, er, aesthetic, she has not donned a T-shirt—"yet," she adds with a wink.)…

After 30 years on the air, Diane Sawyer is still making— and breaking —news We have spent hours of our lives watching her. And trusting her. We have marveled at her courage and curiosity. Diane Sawyer believes "being safe is the enemy of everything" and that great experience takes place at the edge of your competence. "Because," she says, "in that beautiful anxiety is an air pocket of what you've always done and what you might do; that is your creative life." She began her career as a Kentucky beauty queen and took over ABC World News three years ago, at age 64. When I asked her if I could print that, she laughed and said, "Print it," because Diane Sawyer has things to concern herself with other than being…

Bazaar senior accessories editor Amanda Weiner on what she's lusting after for springb I love my Leica camera, but this special edition Hermès for Leica (1) is the best of the best. My diamond studs (2) were a gift for my 25th birthday—I wear them practically every day. Since I'm from Miami, sunglasses are an essential; I found these from Retrosuper-future (3) when I was home. I wear a lot of black, so I'm always looking for an easy way to incorporate pops of color, and because I travel everywhere with a sketchbook, this orange one from Smythson (4) does the trick. I love long-sleeved dresses, and this black Chloé (5) is the ideal LBD for me. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it during…

IS THERE A SINGLE SNOWPLOW in all of Paris? That's the question I asked myself in January, when I was in the French fashion capital for the haute couture shows. Well, the answer apparently is no. Neither did the city have any salt. After it was blanketed in the fluffy white stuff—which, to be fair, was a true display of natural beauty—traffic and all else ground to a halt. But the shows went on. Thinking back on the couture season, I'm reminded of something else that was appropriately wondrous in the winter weather: Natalia Vodianova, the Russian-born supermodel who currently lives in the City of Light with her Berluti-boss boyfriend, Antoine Arnault. She was the standout front-row regular at this year's happenings, looking understatedly chic in Dior at the Christian…

EACH SEASON I make a valiant effort to build the perfect wardrobe, an idea that always begins with a list. I love lists. A list is a promise of things to come—places to visit, shops to explore, movies to see. Being a fashion editor, I most love the list that gets scribbled in my agenda and says spring 2012, fall 2011, or now, spring 2013. My list is a mix of runway pieces that I'm coveting, basics that need replacing (skinny black pants, white shirts), long-term (and pricey) desirables (a Chanel black 2.55 is still on there), and items from the previous year that continue to look chic. Without my list, I—and my closet—would be hopelessly lost. The fact is, devising a fully integrated, well-edited wardrobe that epitomizes my style,…

WHERE FASHION MEETS CULTURE Check republic. Louis Vuitton dress, and shoes, $855. 866-VUITTON. The wizard who brought the world into Technicolor is back in Sam Raimi's just released film, Oz: The Great and Powerful. A prequel to Dorothy's famed adventures, it stars James Franco as Oscar Diggs, a crooked circus magician who wanders into Oz and encounters its three skeptical yet sexy witches, played by Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz, and Michelle Williams (as Glinda, the Good Witch). Bazaar had exclusive access to the magic behind the curtain: the movie's fantastical digital backdrops, conceptualized by production designer Robert Stromberg. "The Emerald City, which in the story was built by Glinda's father, skewed more toward Art Deco, with a classic, masculine feeling, and Glinda's world more toward Art Nouveau and its elegant,…

TAURUS APRIL 21–MAY 21 You've put the needs of others before your own recently, and this month you'll wake up to the fact that you have missed out on a lot as a result. By mid-April, you'll pamper yourself in a way that those dear to you may criticize quite heavily. Let them. MOTTO OF THE MONTH: We trip not on mountains but on molehills. GEMINI MAY 22–JUNE 21 This month, you'll have to show your sympathetic side to someone close who's experiencing tough times. But there's only so much you can sacrifice before you start to feel resentful. And aren't there others who should be sharing the load with you? MOTTO OF THE MONTH: Kind words don't wear out the tongue. CANCER JUNE 22–JULY 23 You haven't been acknowledged…

What I like most about fashion: What I don't like about fashion is when it's too dictatorial. Everything is not for everybody. I don't like to be trendy; I don't get crazy with what's in or what's out. What ages a woman: Trying to look younger. You just end up looking foolish. You have to dress age-appropriate, and this goes for everyone. I think it's terrible when women over a certain age show their arms, even if you're athletic. Your arms don't look so good when you're older. And a 70-year-old's knees aren't pretty. Also, long hair pulls a face down. And you shouldn't be dressing up like a powder puff when you're older. Of course, I'm all for being happy. Would I rather dress badly or be happy? I'd…

"I'm a big historicist." That's how Michael S. Smith, the Obamas' official decorator and a member of the Committee for the Preservation of the White House, describes himself. For his work, which extends from Europe to the Pacific Coast—and includes the homes of Steven Spielberg, George Clooney, Rupert Murdoch, and Net-a-Porter's Natalie Massenet—Smith mines cultural treasures of the past to create serene, deeply luxurious environments that bring tradition to the 21st century. His new book, Building Beauty: The Alchemy of Design, covers the seven years he spent collaborating with architects and artisans to turn a humdrum California home into a masterpiece. The Santa Monica–based designer filled it with his signature mix: Southeast Asian sculpture, English-country furniture, 17th-century rugs, and contemporary paintings. Just before the book comes out, Christie's New York…

With new salon treatments and souped-up juices, the promise of lustrous locks is now a reality Hard not to notice the flat, iron-pressed hair that slunk its way down the catwalk at spring shows like Michael Kors and CÉline, wasn't it? But in salons, women are still coveting impossibly bouncy, voluminous tresses, runway be damned. "I don't think there's a woman out there who doesn't want thicker hair this season or any season," says Patrick Melville, a New York salon co-owner who counts Heidi Klum among his clients. A glossy, full-bodied mane is a sign of health and vitality, not to mention youthfulness—which, of course, never goes out of style. So it's no wonder that the latest salon treatments, designed to lock in body and sheen, represent the new holy…

When change comes, it comes quickly. Fashion has always been quite gay-forward and gay-friendly—if you can't be gay in fashion, you should just stop. But this past January at the couture shows in Paris, Karl Lagerfeld hit upon a moment with his two brides. It's about time. Look at them, look at their fascinator veils and the symmetry there. It's as if Karl is suggesting that the brides are two parts of one whole. And they are wearing traditional wedding gowns. It's funny when people get freaked out over the dress code for gay weddings. It's not COME IN THONGS. My husband, Grant, and I married six years ago at the Old Royal Navy College in Greenwich, England, in the painted hall. In the winter, they freeze a courtyard into…

When photographer Melvin Sokolsky proposed his concept for encapsulating the 1963 spring fashions to Bazaar's editors, he met with some skepticism. But he found a supporter in Ali MacGraw, who was a photo editor at the magazine at the time. " 'Just keep it quiet; let's get this Weehawken thing shot,' she told me," Sokolsky recalls, referring to the New Jersey spot where he stood to capture model Simone D'Aillencourt effervescing over Manhattan. When he returned to the office with test shots, Bazaar's then editor, Nancy White, "was blown away. 'What's holding it up?!' she wanted to know." Magic, clearly.…
