Innehållsförteckning för February 2020 från Harper's Bazaar

AS YOU DIVE into this issue just weeks into a new year, I’ll be in Paris at the couture collections. It’s fitting, seeing as an exciting exhibition dedicated to Harper’s Bazaar will be unveiled at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in a little over a month’s time. On February 28, to celebrate the reopening of its fashion galleries after a renovation sponsored by Christine and Stephen A. Schwarzman, the museum will host “First in Fashion,” a retrospective on Bazaar’s history, dating back to its founding in 1867. In our feature on the exhibition, starting on page 144, we look at some of the “firsts” that made Bazaar so groundbreaking. Bazaar was America’s first modern fashion magazine. Its first editor, Mary Louise Booth, was a suffragist, and the publication was among…

3 million unread e-mails 2 breakfasts 1 unfinished memoir 5:00 A.M. My dog, Diana, usually wakes me up. She’s so jet-lagged right now because she’s been traveling with me. I can hear her nails on the floor as she walks around the room—I’m a very light sleeper. Nick [Jonas, her husband] isn’t like that at all. He doesn’t wake up. It’s really annoying! So I have to spend some time giving Diana attention, and then we both go back to sleep for a few more hours. I love to sleep. 7:30 A.M. The first thing I do in the morning is put on music. My life has always been pretty musical, and now with Nick it’s completely musical. I decided to date him after seeing the video for “Close,” where…

ART GO FIGURE “David Hockney: Drawing From Life,” an exhibition at London’s National Portrait Gallery, offers unique insight into the world of one of the U.K.’s most influential contemporary artists. Opening February 27, it features previously unseen work including self-portraits, depictions of Hockney’s muses, and sketches from his art-school days. BOOKS IN FOCUS A treasured longtime contributor to Bazaar, Peter Lindbergh forever changed the way we view fashion. Peter Lindbergh. Dior, a new two-volume set from Taschen, collects and commemorates the late photographer’s collaborations with the French house and explores the larger scope of his groundbreaking oeuvre. FASHION IT BAG Encrusted with iridescent Swarovski crystals, the dazzling new N.45 clutch from Italian luxury brand Fregoli is a total conversation piece. TELEVISION TUNE IN Inspired by Nick Hornby’s 1995 novel, the…

CHANGE YOUR PART For a no-cost, no-commitment transformation, simply move your part. “I suggest switching the placement every other week, especially if you have extensions,” says Lacy Redway, Nexxus style and trends curator. “Otherwise your hair can start to thin along the part line, due to UV exposure, tension from heat styling, and regular brushing.” If cowlicks are an issue, use a little mousse (like Nexxus Mousse + Volumizing Foam) along the part line for control with a movable finish. “It doesn’t shellac hair like gel can,” Redway says. DITCH THE NEUTRALS According to L.A. makeup artist Jillian Dempsey, who works with Kate Winslet and Emilia Clarke, throwing on a bright lip color is the fastest way to give off a fresher—and more confident—vibe. “It’s instant ‘wow,’” she says. If…

EYE-OPENER Perhaps you’ve heard about “lash lifts,” a salon service that gives lashes a semi-permanent curl. Too aggressive for you? Maybelline New York’s latest mascara is formulated to deliver an all-day curl, minus the hassle, cost, and time. DARK ARTS Goth style is having a moment, but you don’t have to go full-on Tim Burton. Gucci’s newest lipsticks have a sparkly, silvery undertone that keeps them on the right side of glam. FULL BLOOM White florals are famously rich, but Audrey Gruss, founder and chairman of the Hope for Depression Research Foundation, shows off their other dimensions this month with the sheer, citrusy Hope Sport and the plummy (and slightly addictive) Hope Night. Even better, all of the net profits go to the foundation. MAGIC ERASER Dermatologists have a new…

LIP SERVICE HERMÈS HAS LONG been synonymous with thoughtful, built-to-last luxury, from exquisite scarves to heirloom bags, and now the same can be said of the house’s new line of lipsticks. The textures are sumptuous, the refillable tubes delightfully heavy in hand. Choose from a spectrum of 24 matte and satin hues, ranging from bordeaux and crimson to—in true Hermès style—brilliant orange.…

IN THE MID-’90s, I had a George Costanza–like epiphany: If I wrote a character who was my exact opposite, everyone would love her. Instead of being dark and worried, she’d be light and confident. Instead of growing up in the Bronx with Auschwitz survivors, she’d grow up in Beverly Hills with Hollywood survivors. She’d be happy knowing all her ideas were great. “Emma is just bored,” says Taylor-Joy. “She doesn’t know that she’s allowed to want more.” Scenes and pieces of dialogue came to me, but I needed to find the skeleton it would all hang on. I remembered a fictional character from my 19th-century English literature class: the titular protagonist of Jane Austen’s Emma. On page 1, we’re told that Emma Woodhouse is “handsome, clever, and rich” with “very…

WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER in the ’80s, I did most of my shopping in vintage clothing stores. It wasn’t cool or trendy yet—some of my friends even thought it was gross. But those lost and forgotten items made me imagine the lives of the people who’d once inhabited them. As a young actress, I felt like I could try on those lives just as I had the garments. I wasn’t quite sure who I wanted to be yet—or, more accurately, I knew exactly who I wanted to be, but those desires changed every other week. “I knew exactly who I wanted to be, but those desires changed every other week.” At 14 years old, I was given the book Edie: An American Biography, by Jean Stein and George Plimpton,…

ELISABETH MOSS’S face, which is pale, lineless, and animated, reveals everything she wants you to know and little else. Even in the ridiculously dim early evening light of the bar at the Sunset Tower hotel in Los Angeles, her blue eyes are bright with attention. “I find that I’m very, very good at, like, I guess some people would call it compartmentalizing,” says Moss, 37, with a laugh and a lilt in her voice that makes that admission sound like an apology. Moss, who introduces herself as Lizzie, has arrived fresh from a meeting with the writers of The Handmaid’s Tale, the dystopian Hulu drama that she both produces and stars in. Her shoulder-length, bleached-blonde hair is in a pretty tangle, and she’s wearing a black leather moto jacket, a…

I’VE BEEN working in fashion for more than 15 years, and along the way I’ve collected my shiny prizes. But having lots of pretty things has never helped me get dressed. At one point I had close to 250 dresses in my closet, layered three to a hanger and stuffed so tightly together, you risked a hernia removing them. And yet I was sure I had nothing to wear So I decided to use my professional skills to edit myself for a change. I started by trying on everything I owned. It took about five hours to zip, button, and shimmy my way through my wardrobe. I soon realized that I really didn’t like a lot of it. Sure, I loved the stories behind how I’d inveigled each item—the bag…

SOMETIMES the scariest thing is getting started. If you’ve ever embarked on a new diet or fitness routine—and post-holidays it’s practically a tradition—you can feel defeated before day one. Rather than look at the next few months as a painful slog, just think about the next 10 days. “You can start establishing real habits in that time,” says Julie Wandzilak, a personal trainer for Equinox. Here, experts reveal their top ways to get yourself motivated and make lasting changes in your body. STAY OUT OF THE GYM If you haven’t worked out in a while, start slowly. “I don’t even let my [sedentary] clients into the gym for the first month,” says celebrity trainer Harley Pasternak. Instead he has them get a Fitbit to track their daily step goals. By…

MOST WANTED SPRING EDITION New season highlights and the brands we’re most excited about. MINIMAL MAVEN Designed with the belief that a bag should never overshadow your personal style, Denmark-based Aesther Ekme’s creations are minimalism at its best. Sleek and simple, but never boring, classic totes and crossbodies are reinvented by Creative Director Stephane Park. GOOD NIGHT Beauty sleep is an understatement with emerging label The Sleep Shirt. Inspired by 19th-century sleepwear, founder Alexandra Suhner Isenberg has expanded her designs to include pajama sets and nighties—that can also be worn as daywear—all crafted in high-quality linens and cottons. CAKEWALK The first women’s line by Jack Erwin stays true to the brand’s ethos with clean design and meticulous craftsmanship front and center. Comfortable and elevated, it’s impossible to pick just one.…

“I’m friendly with Brad Pitt,” says Paltrow. “I don’t have any really bad blood.” Gwyneth Paltrow is sitting at the head of a long table outside her office at Goop’s headquarters in Santa Monica, an environment done up in shades of gray and white where Sweetgreen abounds, and arrays of self-improvement books and organic snacks are organized with military precision. In shorts, a loose top, and bare feet, Paltrow is talking about how her kids, 15-year-old Apple and 13-year-old Moses (with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin), relate to her public persona. “I think they understand fame very well,” she says. “My son said to me the other day [after] he was out with his best friend and his family, ‘Mom, people are so different when you’re not there.’ He was like,…

TONIA NNEJI The rising Nigerian painter is breaking down traditions and taboos By Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie Self-portrait by Tonia Nneji I FIRST saw Tonia Nneji’s painting online. A face, an expressionist face, a woman’s face with a kind of vulnerable boldness. I felt looking at it that here was a stubborn daring, frightened, even pensive, but pushing forward. It was not about a lack of fear, but rather about acting in spite of fear. And looking in spite of fear. It was about looking and seeing. That face was a staring down, at tradition, at taboos, at the things considered unsayable. I loved that face. It is hanging now at the entrance of my Lagos home, like a subtle theme. Another face by Tonia Nneji, similar but more sedate, hangs…

ON FEBRUARY 28, the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris will mark the reopening of its newly renovated fashion galleries with an exhibition devoted to Harper’s Bazaar. “First in Fashion” will examine the history of fashion as it has unfolded in the pages of the magazine, spotlighting a collection of watershed moments and seismic shifts in the way we dress, think, and live as they were captured in—and, in some cases, instigated by—Bazaar. Overseen by MAD director Olivier Gabet and curators Éric Pujalet-Plàa and Marianne Le Galliard, with Bazaar’s editor in chief, Glenda Bailey, and design director, Elizabeth Hummer, the exhibition charts Bazaar’s evolution from a 19th-century literary lifestyle journal that billed itself as “a repository for fashion, pleasure, and instruction” into the first modern fashion magazine. The name of…
