EXTRA! E-EDITION EXCLUSIVE COLOR THEORY: THE NEW HUES STYLIST'S TIP Pair the fiery color with black for maximum impact. RED-HOT Whether in the form of a Little Red Riding Hood cape or a cozy knit turtleneck, intense shades of crimson burned up the runway this season. STYLIST'S TIP Add depth with scarlet-accented accessories. GRAY MATTERS Fall calls for masculine suiting in shades of slate and dove.Ralph Lauren, Valentino, and Dior focused on roomy separates in the color that will ensure your gray days are chicer than ever. STYLIST'S TIP Put a twist on the monochromatic look by mixing textures. INTO THE WOODS Balmain, Isabel Marant, and Derek Lam were some of the designers who had us seeing green during the fall collections, showing mohair, fur, and patent leather pieces in…

How did you come to dress Michelle and Lupita? It was love at first sight with Michelle. She has the perfect figure, so she looks good in anything. Our first fitting was at last year's Golden Globes—I put her in Alexandre Vauthier, and the rest is history. And then she introduced me to Lupita. Have you ever had a fashion crisis? On the way to an event, the zipper popped on a client's vintage dress. The car was surrounded by paparazzi—luckily I had my sewing kit. Do you have any red-carpet tips? (1) I'm into matching the entire outfit, like the icy blue Altuzarra dress Lupita wore with pale blue Bruno Magli pumps and blue nail polish to the L.A. Film Critics Awards. (2) A side boob can be just…

Frida Giannini in 24 hours 48,000 vinyl records hot dogs in Central Park 200 pairs of shoes 6:30 A.M. I don't sleep that much, usually five or six hours. My one-year-old, Greta, sleeps for 12 hours, so I wait for her to wake up before going to the office. The first thing I do is cook breakfast—an egg-white omelet and fresh orange juice or skim milk with brown toast and apricot jam and barley coffee. I haven't had real coffee for 10 years now. I used to drink five cups a day, but I stopped because I have sleep problems. While I eat I check my BlackBerry—I still have one for e-mail. Of course, I have an iPhone, but I still cannot use the touch screen to write a long…

GOUDE'S GIRLS "THE WOMEN IN MY LIFE will always remain my central inspiration," says the artist Jean-Paul Goude, whose latest work appears as part of the exhibition "Image-Makers," on view at Issey Miyake's Tokyo museum, 21_21 Design Sight, through October 5. One piece, The Waltzer, stars Goude's "three muses"—model Farida Khelfa, singer Grace Jones, and his wife of nearly 20 years, Karen Park Goude—as large dolls that dance gracefully on a circular track. "I have always put women on a pedestal in one way or another," he says. "Drawing, photographing, designing for them is my way of demonstrating my admiration."

VIRGO AUGUST 24–SEPTEMBER 23 As you try to take care of some complicated matters in August, you'll discover problems that can't be solved at first. But don't assume that things are harder than they are, because the situation is about to change. Get a realistic view of where you stand and who is beside you to help. MOTTO OF THE MONTH: Better whole than patched in gold.

HAVE YOU EVER considered that your diet may be sabotaging your weight loss efforts? It's a fair question, given that the ways our food is grown and prepared have changed and that the rules of nutrition are ever more confusing to follow. Gone are the days when eating less and exercising more qualified as a weight loss plan. Now when we want to drop a dress size, we swear off entire food groups (so long, dairy!), steer clear of gluten, and sip on green juice from morning till night. "When women overdo it with these desperate weight loss tactics, it actually does more harm than good," says trainer-to-the-stars Tracy Anderson, who adds that deciding to suddenly go strictly raw or survive on shakes is not only unsustainable but "throws the…

IT SOUNDS LIKE something out of Alice in Wonderland: a pill that truly makes you smaller. "Pill," however, is something of a misnomer because inside this capsule is actually a deflated balloon, called the Obalon. But it can help you shed pounds—without even trying. Here's how it works: First, you swallow the pill, which is attached to a long, slim tube. Once the pill has made its way to your stomach, doctors use the tube to inflate the balloon with gas; the tube is then disconnected and pulled out. The balloon can stay in for up to three months, and you can have up to three balloons in place at a time. The idea is that the balloon(s) simply make you feel full. After 12 weeks, during an endoscopy done…

Rachel Feinstein is surrounded by power tools. We're standing in the noisy workshop of Perfection Electricks in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, where Feinstein's sculptures for her latest exhibition, "Folly," in Manhattan's Madison Square Park, are being made, and all around us, buzz saws are whining, sparks are flying, and the sweet stink of sawdust is high in the air. Meanwhile, the art world's most glamorous woman bustles about in jeans and work boots—her magical peachy-blonde hair yanked back off her face, zero makeup—directing and inspecting and commenting and cajoling, happy as a fish in a river. "Isn't this place great?" she says in her husky, friendly voice. "I'm on the wait list to get a studio in this building. I love it here." It's funny seeing Feinstein like this. In public she's…

Women with truly great style don't just dazzle, they inspire. As we enter a season of exciting possibilities, from the earthly pleasures of fall's shearlings (page 174) to the moon (almost), we dedicate the issue to celebrating personal style. We doubt that there's a woman alive who doesn't lust after a Birkin, but the rest of the Hermès bag brigade (page 106) is equally allur-ing. Elsewhere, Gucci creative director Frida Giannini (page 80) opens a window onto her life as a working mom (her baby daughter has a shoe arsenal to behold). With Virgin Galactic's tourist flights cleared to journey to space later this year, Bazaar went to Space Camp in Alabama for some out-of-this-world gold-and-black glamour (page 146). And on Planet Beauty (page 140), find out how to master…

Miuccia Prada's fall collection was all about theatricality, with references to the work of German avant-garde filmmaker Rainer Werner Fassbinder, in particular his dark, all-female masterpiece, 1972's The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant. But there's nothing dark about this brushed-gold shoulder bag. Made of calfskin and napa leather, it's finished with steel hardware and Prada's signature chain. High drama, indeed. Prada bag, $3,700. prada.com. This month's objects of desire…

PERSONAL STYLE. Yes, I wrote it in caps. Why? Because great personal style is elusive—it's the White Whale of Wardrobing. Those who have it, and make it look effortless, well, they deserve ALL-CAPS CONGRATULATIONS. It's ease that I admire most of all, probably because I'm never happier than when I'm in jeans and a loose denim shirt. With that in mind, I thought I'd talk to some of my friends who dress fancy for work but still very much dress for life. Christy Turlington has great style—which she needs, because she's not very pretty. (Emoticon!) Christy has a feeling to the way she dresses. It's not the It thing, but it's the right thing. "Remember when I said my personal style was evolving?" she says. "It's still in the hopper.…

CULTURE ART My favorite Chinese artist is Chen Man. I'm also in awe of Karl Lagerfeld's photographic breadth. ESCAPE The Shangri-La Hotel in Beijing is like an oasis in the middle of the city. EXTRAS I love floral arrangements with white roses. FASHION PHILOSOPHY Chinese women don't overdress anymore; they want to look relaxed. KEY PIECES I've worn designer Christopher Bu's pieces for years. His looks are very feminine, and he integrates cartoon prints and romantic florals and lace. Lately I've also liked the vintage-style running shoes from Adidas. And I couldn't live without my Louis Vuitton bags—I'll often buy the same style in several colors. JEWELS For major events, I'll wear a necklace and bracelet from Chopard. BEAUTY ROUTINE I always use face masks. I do hundreds of them…

MARY KATRANTZOU'S BAG LOVE This month London designer Mary Katrantzou is adding handbags to her repertoire: The cheeky Marinela tote features what Katrantzou calls "little pagan robots made up of symbols." Look closely and you'll see the Clocktopia character's alarm-clock eyes and fleur-de-lis arms. "She sits on the phone all day," the designer says. "Literally."

PONYTAILS HAVE ALWAYS been equated with youth. We wear them throughout our childhood, teen years, and 20s, then we reach a certain age and deem ourselves "too old." Yet, ironically, when hair is pulled tight enough and high enough, "it can absolutely lift your face," says celebrity hairstylist Harry Josh, who coifs ponytail devotees like Gwyneth and Gisele. So it's no wonder that this sleek and simple updo has been a Hollywood favorite since the 1950s, and today it's hard to scan a red carpet (Reese Witherspoon, Sandra Bullock, Blake Lively) or runway (Ralph Lauren and Bottega Veneta are fall's standouts) without spotting swinging tails. This style standby has even captured the attention of facial plastic surgeons like New York's Philip Miller, who created a much-buzzed-about facial procedure inspired by…

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand how calorie-burning works. When you move you're using fuel (a.k.a. calories). And when you're sitting at your computer, you're not. But new research has revealed alarming evidence that countless hours spent slumped in your office desk chair (albeit ergonomically correct) can have profound physiological effects on your body, wreaking havoc far beyond the simple calories-in, calories-out equation. "Your body isn't built to sit," says James Levine, an endocrinologist at the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, Arizona, and a leading advocate of the treadmill desk. "When you sit for a long time, the receptors on the muscles in your body that are inactive—lower back, buttocks, and legs, torso, abdominals, shoulders, and arms—start to change and become more resistant to insulin, causing blood sugar and…

Halo effect. Dress, Ralph Lauren Collection. Bracelet, David Webb. Shoes, Giuseppe Zanotti Design. This place is great, right?" says Cameron Diaz, tucked into a corner banquette at a quiet little hotel restaurant in West Hollywood. Then she hides her face with her hand and whispers, "But the food is awful," followed by the biggest and most recognizable laugh in Hollywood. Diaz has chosen this spot because it's in a residential neighborhood, away from the usual haunts, but the booth she's sitting in is upholstered in a blue leather that matches her eye color so perfectly you'd swear she chose the place for that reason alone. She sneaked in for a late lunch, virtually unnoticed, wearing a chambray shirt, casual printed silk pants, and flat sandals. But because she is Cameron…

The Long and the short of fall fashion—something of a mixed bag that will see you embarking on a magical mystery tour through the decades—is that the key trends swing both ways. Long and, well, short. Whether you dream of wrapping yourself in one of Gucci's or Prada's shaggy '70s coats, sharpening up in a smoking Giorgio Armani tuxedo jacket, embracing the new era of '60s a-go-go, coming back down to earth in 50 shades of brown, or all of the above, you really can have it your way. Fashion, you see, is accommodating everyone, and it's high time too, because we women are well versed in what works, and what doesn't, in the personal style department, thank you very much. THE NEW FUR If your idea of the perfect…

I'VE ALWAYS BEEN fascinated by people with great style—where it comes from, how they do it, and what it says about who they are. That's why it has been such a joy to see fashion become a powerful means of expression for so many women around the globe. To wit, Bazaar now has outposts in 28 countries, each with its own distinct sensibility and perspective. For this year's Personal Style issue, we asked our counterparts at Bazaar's Brazilian, Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Middle Eastern, Russian, and British editions to nominate the women who personify the best of fashion in their respective regions. (Our global fashion director and paragon of Parisian chic, Carine Roitfeld, represents France.) Elsewhere in the issue, our cover star, Cameron Diaz, is a deft ambassador of American style—she's…

An editor's style picks Bazaar fashion market editor Mallory Schlau shares her must-haves This fall I plan on expanding my jewelry collection, and Proenza Schouler's rings (1) are at the top of my list. The built-in handkerchief collar gives this classic white shirt a twist (2). It's the perfect layering piece. I'm always looking to add color, and these royal blue studs (3) are just right. This Burberry cape (4) was the standout from London Fashion Week—what's not to love about wearing a blanket on the street? My new go-to silhouette is the wide leg, so I'll be investing in these leather pants (5). Given my current love affair with accessories, I'm coveting this sculptural bracelet (6). These stacked-heel boots (7) will add a pop of red to my wardrobe.…

1 IN THE DETAILS Emma Roberts played a teenage rebel in Gia Coppola's first feature film, Palo Alto, but what I love about her is her classic, grown-up style. The sleeves of this Dior shift add a twist to traditional cocktail attire. 2 RED-CARPET AWARDS I wonder if Victoria Beckham took her cue from Marilyn Monroe when she got dressed for this year's Met Gala. As the screen siren showed in The Seven Year Itch, skin always glows whenit's next to white, and Beckham looked positively radiant in this strapless gown from her own prefall collection. 3 HAUTE DATE I made a mental note when I picked up my superstylish pal Kate Bosworth to head over to a Jimmy Choo cocktail party in L.A. earlier this year: no red wine.…

This fall's collections were all about wanderlust: There was Hermès's venture down the Silk Road, Burberry's luxurious travelers' cloaks, and Ralph Lauren's knit serapes, to name a few. For modern women, clothes are a way of being transported, whether we're actually on a plane or stuck in the office. As designers tap into the world beat, so do consumers—but often the farther we look for inspiration, the more synchronous the way we dress gets. "Women all over are buying into the same statement pieces and the same brands," observes Ruth Chapman, cofounder of luxe U.K.-based retailer Matchesfashion.com, which launched e-commerce eight years back. She would know: Matches now has customers in more than 195 countries, from Australia to Kazakhstan. Sarah Rutson, fashion director of Hong Kong luxury department store Lane…

JYPSIÈRE As Hermès's creative director from 2003 to 2010, Jean Paul Gaultier worked mainly on clothing, but he was also responsible for some of Hermès's most covetable bags. Case in point: the Jypsière, the result of crossbreeding a Birkin with a game bag ("gibecière" in French). The name is a sly self-reference ("J" is for Jean Paul) as well as a nod to the "nomadic gypsy spirit," says Jobert. PICOTIN LOCK This 2002 style, by Hermès craftsman Frédérick Vidal, was inspired by a horse's nose bag. "Picotin" translates to "peck," or a quarter bushel, once the standard amount of grain comprising a horse's dinner. ROULIS "I made the Roulis three years ago—you just start to draw and your pen brings you to something really strange," says Jobert. But the strangest…

I ENVY, THEREFORE I AM. We are all guilty of wanting what others have—nicer homes, better-behaved children. But lately a new breed of jealousy has come to town. Let's call it divorce envy: the uncomfortable feeling that someone else's marriage is ending in a more graceful way than your own. In an era when child centrality reigns supreme and many Gen X–ers bear scars from their own parents' hostile uncouplings, the goal for a growing number of separating parties is no longer merely to "get through" a divorce but to emerge from it triumphantly at peace, having handled the dissolution of their marriage calmly, reasonably, and even lovingly. Laura Wasser, a Los Angeles divorce lawyer whose clients have included Angelina Jolie, Heidi Klum, and Kim Kardashian, says she has seen…

WRINKLE ERASER Iluminage Skin Smoothing Laser, $595 THE CLAIM "As effective as a professional laser for the treatment of facial wrinkles, such as wrinkles around the eyes and mouth." HOW IT WORKS Delivers pulses of laser light below the surface of the skin to generate new collagen growth. (An increase in collagen tightens and plumps skin.)

Elizabeth, 51 RADIANCE BOOSTER IlluMask Anti-Aging Phototherapy Mask, $30 THE CLAIM "The benefits of phototherapy in a hands-free mask … improves skin tone, texture, and hydration."

MAKEUP ESSENTIALS EVERYONE NEEDS PRIMER The secret to Charlize Theron's flawless complexion: primers (yes, plural). At this year's Oscars, celebrity makeup artist Pati Dubroff cocktailed formulas, applying Dior Pore Minimizer Primer ($42) on Theron's T-zone, plus Dior Glow Maximizer ($42) on the perimeter of her face, especially the cheekbones. The combination "reflects light where you want it and lessens shine where you don't, reducing the need for powder, which can make you look old," Dubroff says. MATCH YOUR BODY TO YOUR FACE Between plunging necklines and back-baring gowns, it's no surprise that the pros spend as much time perfecting skin on the body as they do on the face. Chanel celebrity makeup artist Kate Lee says that if you apply highlighter on your cheekbones and the bridge of your nose,…

A rainbow arcs across the sky above Windsor—a fitting augur for the night ahead, as a fleet of rain-splashed limousines disgorge their exquisitely dressed passengers at the castle gates. Here's Benedict Cumberbatch, tuxed up and gleamingly handsome; now, Downton Abbey ingenue Lily James and model Cara Delevingne (more wide-eyed and shy-looking than her tabloid profile would suggest), beaded gowns glittering in the early evening light. Tonight the 928-year-old royal residence is the setting for a fete of the highest swankitude, in honor of the Royal Marsden hospital. Prince William, like his mother Diana before him, serves as the hospital's president. He is also our host for the evening, accepting a philanthropic gift from the designer Ralph Lauren that will fund a new breast cancer research center at the London hospital.…

Jovially perched on the edge of a high-backed armchair in one of Dior's salons, on Rue de Marignan in Paris, a room that's all moldings and gray decor, Victoire de Castellane is flipping through sketches of her latest creations for a new collection of fine jewelry for the house. Ever the polished Parisian, she's dressed in an all-black uniform of Dior sweater and Joseph leggings, the silhouette's clean lines sharpened by a pair of glossy brown Céline stilettos—"from two years ago," she says, peering out from nerd-chic specs by Prism. Whipping out an illustration of a necklace, de Castellane talks about her own jewelry habits. "I don't like to wear jewelry by day," she says, the honey highlights glistening in her Penelope Tree do. "I don't want to be distracted…

TONY MAZZOLA'S BOLD VISION "We appeal to a woman with a very strong confidence level, who is sure of herself, not wishy-washy," Tony Mazzola said in 1983, in the midst of his 19-year tenure as editor in chief of Harper's Bazaar. "We have become the fashion and beauty book with personality, the one with heart." It was in this spirit that Mazzola, who passed away in May at the age of 90, captured the effusive attitude of fashion in the '70s and '80s, with its outsize glamour and larger-than-life personalities. His sharp, inquisitive eye led him to recruit talented photographers, like Bill King, Francesco Scavullo, and Rico Puhlmann, whose images came to define the era. Mazzola was fond of saying that he was driven "not by what's happening but why,"…
