Table of contents for September 2019 in Harper's Bazaar

Women in the public eye have always faced unfair assumptions about who they are and how they should behave. The September issue is packed with incredible women who don’t hesitate to challenge those expectations, starting with our cover star, singer-songwriter Alicia Keys, who is famed for her radical realness. Elsewhere you’ll find the gorgeous Emily Ratajkowski like you’ve never seen her before, looking sexy and androgynous while proudly displaying body hair in an effort to shatter feminine taboos. Another stunner, supermodel Helena Christensen, also graces these pages. Dressed in swimsuits from her own line, she opens up about her talent for matchmaking and why she is never afraid to show off her curves. In culture news, fans of Downton Abbey will love seeing Michelle Dockery and a few of her…

IT’S ALWAYS happy hour with the new timepieces from watchmaker Seiko Since 1881, which were inspired by the aesthetics of a classic cocktail bar (and its quintessential libations). With a deep-green dial, rich leather strap, gold second hand, and slim, shiny markers, this elegant watch evokes a minty Mockingbird served up in a stately lounge. Part of the Presage collection, it marries fine mechanical watchmaking with Japanese craftsmanship. Cheers to that.…

STATISTICALLY speaking, women are far more likely to save than to invest. While stocks and shares may not be quite akin to stilettos, often we are overcautious about investing in the sorts of timeless big-ticket items that can become our signatures. By learning some basic fashion arithmetic, however, you can put yourself on the fast track to a well-managed closet that pays dividends. Consider Reese Witherspoon’s Celine Medium C bag ($3,300), which does the work of a flotilla of totes. Just a few years ago, an A-lister like her would have been dripping in newly minted swag for every photo opportunity. But it’s 2019 and mores have shifted. Today it’s far chicer and more sustainable to choose very, very well than to consume indiscriminately. While in New York in May…

Actually, brown is the new black. A wristlet, crossbody, and shoulder bag in one—this stylish multitasker from Brahmin is the only accessory you need this fall. Featuring a polished croc-embossed leather in a versatile pecan shade that goes with just about everything, and the brand’s signature functionality (key clip, adjustable straps, and back pocket), this bag will never leave your arm.

SWINGING LONDON It’s lovely to know that I have a museum piece in the Thea Porter dress I own, but I just enjoy wearing it. I get excited whenever I find British designers from the 1960s and ’70s in a vintage shop, and I usually buy them. My daughter, Lila, just wore an Ossie Clark dress that I got at auction when she was 10 and had been saving for her. It once belonged to Twiggy. I buy vintage everywhere,” says Kate Moss. “I always keep my eyes open when I’m traveling.” It’s no surprise, then, that on a trip to South America the 45-year-old supermodel found a kindred spirit in Jorge Yarur Bascuñán, director of the world-class Museo de la Moda in Santiago, Chile. This month, Rizzoli is publishing…

AT BAZAAR, our closets and counters are overflowing with the latest skin care, but only a select few become deskside staples. Which make the cut? Products that rely on powerful, innovative ingredients that consistently deliver results. To date, StriVectin has sold more than eight million tubes of SD since it launched in 2002. However, the brand isn’t resting on its laurels. This fall, it’s introducing an updated, faster-acting version of the best-selling cream: SD Advanced PLUS. The new formula has been clinically tested to show a visible reduction in wrinkles in two weeks, as well as a faded appearance of stretch marks in four weeks. A RUNAWAY HIT Formulated initially to treat bodybuilders’ stretch marks, StriVectin SD’s success was a happy accident. When tested above the neckline, developers quickly discovered…

FROM COCO TO KARL, no couture house has done more to shape our understanding of fashion than Chanel. Emboldened by the evolving world of the early 20th century, Gabrielle Chanel set out to design a wardrobe for the modern woman and wound up changing how women dress forever. In his 36-year tenure as creative director, Karl Lagerfeld elevated Chanel’s status from classic to mythical by reinventing its famed designs for a new era. Bazaar contributor Alexander Fury’s book Chanel: The Impossible Collection (Assouline) is a testament to that influence, featuring 100 images divided among two of fashion’s inimitable icons.…

Pace Gallery’s new Chelsea flagship isn’t wasting any time. On September 14, the gallery is christening its global headquarters in New York with several blockbuster exhibitions. On the 3,600-square-foot ground floor will be an extensive survey of the work of Alexander Calder, conceived in collaboration with the Calder Foundation. The second-floor gallery will feature vibrant paintings by contemporary artist Loie Hollowell that explore the link between spirituality and sexuality. Finally, on the third floor you’ll find a 24-panel panoramic drawing by David Hockney that captures the arrival of spring in Normandy. n = BUY ON SHOPBAZAAR.COM…

IT’S NOT EASY TO NOD OFF during one of Sarah Chapman’s treatments. “I really pummel the skin!” the London skin guru says with a laugh. Chapman is known not just for working with Meghan Markle but also for her vigorous facial massage protocol, designed to unearth cheekbones and melt signs of fatigue. (In fact, her hands are so incredible, they’re insured for £1 million.) Can’t make it to her Chelsea clinic? Chapman shares her secrets for looking radiant and rested. 1 MASTER THE CLEANSE I like to cleanse with balmy formulas because they have enough slip that I can comfortably do an intense massage. Here’s your at-home version: Make loose fists, and literally knead your knuckles into the muscles. Then drum your fingertips on your face until you’re flushed. You’re…

OPRAH WINFREY meditates, Richard Branson goes for a brisk dip in the ocean, Marilyn Monroe downed warm milk spiked with two raw eggs: You’re nobody without a morning ritual. In search of my own, here are just a few of the absolutely necessary activities I’ve been pitched by various nutritionists, trainers, and Goop: • Recite five things I’m grateful for today; jot them down in my gratitude journal • Chug a gallon of plain ice water; sip a cup of hot water with lemon, ginger, turmeric, and pepper • Drink a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar • Swish—then spit out—a teaspoon of coconut oil • Eat something before I exercise; eat nothing before I exercise • Brush my teeth with charcoal powder • Populate my microbiome with probiotics • Drink…

WOMEN’S SEXUALITY is often described as “complicated,” a word that tends to suggest something “difficult” or “best not discussed.” But women’s sexuality literally is complicated, in the purest definition of the word: from the acrobatics it takes to undo our bras to the mysterious forces that seem to stoke or decimate our desire. And that is why, doctors will tell you, coming up with a solution for female sexual dysfunction is more difficult than it is for, say, erectile dysfunction. Even the terminology is complicated. While erectile dysfunction isn’t hard (pardon the pun) to understand, what is female sexual dysfunction anyway? According to the benchmarks of the female sexual function index (FSFI), one of the standard tests that researchers rely on, the condition occurs when one or all of the…

Alicia Keys is literally—and figuratively—wearing rose-colored glasses as she enters Astro West Fine Minerals, Fossils, and Meteorites on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. “I’m a crystal fanatic,” says the 38-year-old singer, looking around the store like a kid in a candy shop. “I believe that the energy we surround ourselves with influences what happens around us.” Keys is holding a hunk of creativity-enhancing topaz. “Sometimes you need a little extra.” Today she’s makeup-free, sporting a simple braid and wearing plaid R13 pants, a white Wolford bodysuit, Chanel x Pharrell sneakers, large gold “Alicia” OG hoop earrings, and pink-lensed Stella McCartney shades. As she studies the museum-quality treasures with laser intention, she makes a joke about this interview being “our little date.” Just then a rare, virtually flawless heliodor—known for fending off…

“After so many years of playing Lady Mary, it was fun to switch roles and play a maid for Bazaar. Anna waited on Lady Mary so faithfully over the years— dressing her, mending her clothes, and brushing her hair. It was nice to be able to wait on Jo for a change.” —Michelle Dockery At a stuccoed country-house location in the middle of West London, the world of Downton Abbey is being turned upside down. “Oh, I could get used to this,” says Sophie McShera, a.k.a. kitchen maid turned cook Daisy Mason, as she lounges on a velvet sofa in pink organza Dolce & Gabbana, while a toned-down Elizabeth McGovern, a.k.a. Cora Crawley, Countess of Grantham, serves tea. “I’m usually carrying trays and wearing a gray sack!” Next door, in…

FALL FASHION is in the air again, which makes this the most wonderful time of the year at Bazaar. And in this issue, we bring you the need-to-know trends and the hottest buys, along with advice on how to wear it all. Inside you’ll find items on the season’s style hit list (page 153), like the saddlebag and the romantic blouse, as well as the buzziest looks, from menswear-inspired pieces to bourgeois dressing (page 190). You’ll also get an eyeful of dramatic outerwear set against the backdrop of luminous ice caves (page 326) and vibrant brights in chic head-to-toe monochrome (page 344). Elsewhere you can take in the poetic musings of Valentino’s Pierpaolo Piccioli (page 316) and glean vintage clothing wisdom from Kate Moss (page 228). Then check out our…

IS THERE A CORRECT number of new-season pieces to buy to keep your signature look fresh and on point without your closet spilling over into SOS Marie Kondo territory? In an era when mindful consumption is increasingly becoming an urgent aspiration, you should think in terms of what will make the most impact, then strategize your spending accordingly. This fall, I’d start with the feet because those cute ankle booties that have been your go-to for the past half-decade may have just been nudged into the second row by taller boots. You can now channel Aspen après-ski in Chanel’s furry option that hits around mid-calf, or Connecticut country-house chic with slim jeans tucked into Celine’s cozy over-the-knee shearling-lined boots. The thing about tall boots is that they won’t just retune…

GAWD, I feel awful. I gave away all my knee-length pleated skirts. In the 1980s, I had a collection of them: Armani, Perry Ellis, J.McLaughlin. They were preppy to the max, and they took me to every business meeting, funeral, book party, and luncheon where I was expected. The skirts worked as well with blouses as with turtlenecks. Likewise with blazers or hacking jackets. I wore them with knee-high boots, pumps, and ballet flats. They looked especially good with stacked-heel loafers. If you need help imagining these outfits, please refer to The Official Preppy Handbook, which I co-wrote in 1980. You’ll get the picture. Now these same looks are the backbone of Hedi Slimane’s sophomore collection for Celine, shown in March in Paris. In a black tent in front of…

FUZZY FLEECE Pair textured ivory or cream outerwear with rich suede accessories for a ’70s boho-luxe vibe. PLUSH LEOPARD Delicate gold earrings and a structured top-handle bag give a bold feline print quiet sophistication. MILITARY COAT A jewel-encrusted loafer provides a playful foil for army-inspired details like epaulets and crested buttons. BELTED TRENCH Spike hoops and towering platforms make a classic khaki trench seem new again. NOTCHED LAPEL Sparkly jewels and two-tone accessories lend flair to a menswear-style coat. WRAP COAT Knee-high boots and oversize extras hold their own with a red duster. SEE WHERE TO BUY FOR SHOPPING DETAILS…

ANIMAL ATTRACTION Alessandro Michele’s new Gucci High Jewelry collection is as fantastical as you’d expect from the idiosyncratic designer. Called Hortus Deliciarum, or Garden of Delights, the range includes some 200 largely one-of-a-kind pieces inspired by maximalism, eternal love, and—true to Michele’s canon—the majesty of the animal kingdom. Featuring a diamond-encrusted white-gold lion’s head grasping a stunning green opal, this epic earring epitomizes that vision. Gucci High Jewelry earrings. gucci.com.…

VIRGO AUGUST 24–SEPTEMBER 23 While a serious relationship might have seemed impervious to any sort of crisis or criticism, tempers may flare in the second half of September. Don’t let an outsider’s unkind words make you angry; instead remain calm and logical. LUCKY DAY: The 10th. Insightful thinking on an old problem offers hope. SCORPIO OCTOBER 24–NOVEMBER 22 You’ll find ideas put forward by a small group of people appealing, but it will be up to you to determine whether or not they’re realistic. Be prepared to provide the voice of reason. LUCKY DAY: The 24th. A windfall is bigger than first thought.

YOU KNOW A LOOK has officially arrived when Taylor Swift is wearing it. Miley Cyrus? She’s another bellwether. But the moment the neo-shag was spotted in a recent Celine campaign, it was undeniable. It’s not quite the shag of the 1970s, says hairstylist Sally Hershberger, who chopped Joan Jett’s hair into the style more than 40 years ago (and resurrected it with Meg Ryan in 1995)—and that’s a good thing. “The original silhouette was severe—it was cropped with extremely short layers around the top,” she says. “Now it’s more about softly framing the face, drawing attention to the eyes and cheekbones.” Could this be your new look? “It’s a little bit rock’n’ roll, and it makes everyone a little sexier,” adds Hershberger. “Who wouldn’t want that?” MAKE THE CUT Getting…

CELERY JUICE isn’t just popular with social media influencers. “It’s bigger than any trend in the history of health in the world,” says Anthony William, a.k.a. the Medical Medium. “Kale never even touched this.” The darling of Gwyneth Paltrow, Pharrell Williams, and Miranda Kerr, William—who is not a doctor—claims that he has an intuitive sense for people’s health conditions and that celery juice can relieve everything from lupus to Lyme disease. Simply put: “The juice works,” he says. We asked him to break down the hype. HARPER’S BAZAAR: Why is this drink having such a moment? ANTHONY WILLIAM: Pure celery juice moves the needle in the healing process. It’s antiviral, antibacterial, anti-mold, and antifungal; it protects your good bacteria and raises the hydrochloric acid in your stomach (a chemical compound…

STEP ONE DEFY GRAVITY For such a small region of the face, the eye area works disproportionately hard: It includes 22 muscles, which are put to work with every expression. (We blink on average 10,000 times a day.) Given how thin the skin is, it’s little wonder this area can look fatigued. La Prairie set out to correct this with Skin Caviar Eye Lift, which combines two of the brand’s most innovative technologies: Caviar Premier, an even more potent version of the brand’s signature caviar extract (known to tighten), and the energizing exclusive Cellular Complex. Over time, this new formula—freshly blended with every pump—has proved to tone the upper lids, smooth the lower ones, minimize the look of crow’s-feet, and redefine contours and eyebrows.

“Poetry and couture are things that can belong to the past. I wanted to do it in a new way so poetry could be a common language, more modern and contemporary.” AGAINST AN uncharacteristically gray June Parisian sky, veined with fine clouds like marble, Pierpaolo Piccioli, the 52-year-old creative director of Valentino, crouches contemplatively, brow furrowed, chin resting on fist. He’s mimicking—intentionally—that famous Auguste Rodin sculpture The Thinker. A bronze cast is poised over his right shoulder, in the gardens of Rodin’s former home on the outskirts of the city. It’s the day after Piccioli’s Spring 2020 menswear show and less than two weeks until his Fall 2019 haute couture show. Piccioli has plenty to think about. That said, the pose is somewhat paradoxical. Not that Piccioli isn’t a thinker:…

“LOS ANGELES is a cultural wasteland.” “All anyone talks about is the traffic.” “No one in L.A. has any style. You go out to a nice restaurant and the women are dressed in shorts and the men are wearing flip-flops.” These are all real quotes I’ve heard from New Yorkers, and having lived in Manhattan for almost half my life, I once agreed. But all that changed last year after Crazy Rich Asians, the film adapted from my novel, became the highest-grossing romantic comedy in a decade. As I began working on new film and TV projects, like writing and producing the pilot for a sitcom titled The Emperor of Malibu, I found myself spending more and more time in La La Land. By the time I was dragging four…

DRY SMARTER It’s understandable: To minimize damage, many people wait until their hair is at least 50 percent dry before picking up a dryer. But it’s a recipe for a flatter style, says Jon Reyman, Dyson styling ambassador. “A strand of air-dried hair is skinnier than one that’s been blow-dried because hot air causes hair to swell,” he says. “Once you’ve let hair dry naturally, it’s difficult to infuse volume.” Reyman suggests a dryer with intelligent heat control, like the Dyson Supersonic ($399.99). It won’t overheat your locks and is powered by a motor six times faster on average than other dryers on the market. PICK THE RIGHT PRODUCTS According to Reyman, you don’t necessarily need a heat-shielding spray (all stylers offer some form of heat protection, as it turns out), but…

FALL IS the time for collegiate fashion to shine. This scholarly new calfskin carryall from Hermès evokes the book straps of the early 1900s, an era that saw students tethering their reading materials with a thick leather belt and slinging them over the shoulder. But unlike its inspiration, this versatile bag features three separate storage compartments and a sliding strap that can be worn either over the shoulder or in the crease of the elbow. For extra fashion cred, hang it from your wrist.…

“NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR BEING YOURSELF. I’M AFRICAN AND PROUD.” “OVER-APOLOGIZING TAKES THE WORTH AWAY FROM YOUR WORDS.” “I USED TO APOLOGIZE FOR SPEAKING TOO LOUDLY.

“Whatever’s happening, find joy whenever and wherever you can. And take good care of yourself first.” WHEN LAUREN HUTTON hit the scene in the late 1960s, she redefined beauty standards—her cheery, gap-toothed smile was a revelation in an age of cookie-cutter sameness. And, according to Hutton, the revolution continues. “It’s been a slow evolution, but we now live in a world where beauty comes in all ages, shapes, and colors,” she says. Emphasis on “ages.” “My perspective on aging changed every decade or so until I was 40. That’s when I saw how lame society was, trying to ‘park’ us at that age when our brains and characters are filling out and, therefore, our faces. The thing I’m most proud of in all my work is forcing my way back…

THE PLEATED SKIRT Give this traditional ankle-skimming skirt a fashion-forward edge with unexpected groupings. Match it with a tonal top and a superthick belt for a chic monochromatic look. Or balance out the fluidity of the skirt with some sharp suiting. And the most daring new way to wear it? Toss it under a long tunic or dress to create an interesting layered effect. SILK SCARVES An accent scarf never goes out of style, but this season it feels particularly fresh. Whether worn jauntily tied around the neck or elegantly adorning a bag’s handle, it was all over the fall runways, from Gucci to Etro. The best part? There are endless other ways to style it: woven into hair, wrapped around your wrist, and anything in between. THE NEW CAPE…

TIFFANY & CO. isn’t just an iconic jeweler; it’s also a cultural institution. Since the company’s founding more than 180 years ago, it’s been synonymous with luxury design and craftsmanship, exalted in everything from film and literature to song. And the most identifiable symbol of the brand—the universally unmistakable Tiffany Blue—has itself become a legend. This month, the famed hue and all that it represents will be on display in Shanghai’s “Vision & Virtuosity,” opening September 23. The show highlights Tiffany’s most trailblazing moments alongside key objects from its archive, like the original Tiffany Blue Box and the Savoy headpiece worn by Carey Mulligan in The Great Gatsby. It also includes modern home-decor pieces and standout jewels by Chief Artistic Officer Reed Krakoff.…

ROYAL RED ADJUST YOUR BRIGHTNESS this fall: This season’s red is a rich dark cinnamon, notes New York colorist Sharon Dorram. “It’s almost a jewel tone,” she says. (Witness Zendaya’s glossy ruby hue.) A nice bonus? “You’ll need very little makeup because it adds a glow to your skin.” If you’ve never gone red, start with a semipermanent gloss before going all in with a permanent color. Despite being the fastest to fade, red can be the hardest color to remove should you change your mind. To keep your color vibrant (since red fades in a flash), head to the salon for a pro glossing treatment about every three weeks. (Some colorists do this for free.) In a pinch, you can reach for a dpHUE Gloss+ Semi-permanent Hair Color and…

“Give women the opportunity to be whatever they want and as multifaceted as they can be.” “I tend to like to shave, but sometimes letting my body hair grow out is what makes me feel sexy.” Freshman year of college at UCLA, I took a gender studies class that I became obsessed with. This class was my first introduction to a bunch of ideas I had never been exposed to: queer theory, the concept of sexuality as being on a sliding scale, and the important distinction between gender and sexuality. At the time I considered myself a staunch feminist and had signed up for the class assuming that I’d learn a lot about women’s lib, feminist rhetoric, and so on. I was shocked by how little I understood about gender,…
