Take flight into the new season As the New Year approaches, it's a time of celebration and transformation. Our cover star, Taylor Swift, shows off a sleek new style and talks about wearing the pants in life and love (page 304). There's plenty of inspiration in the Best-Dressed List, which crowns the world's most stylish women (page 155). From style icons to icons of cinema, Steven Spielberg marks the release of his new film, Lincoln, with a collaboration that reinterprets his beloved hits (page 322). Another legend, Giorgio Armani, reveals a day in his luxurious life (page 103), while Carolina Herrera's daughters Patricia and Carolina and some of her grandchildren entertain us family-style in Patricia's elegant New York loft (page 245). Speaking of the season, this year's gift guide has…

42 navy T-shirts 5,700 + employees 2 cats, MairÌ and Angel 10 homes 7:00 A.M. I wake up at seven—I've always been an early riser. I used to think that I did it because I had to, but I realized that I actually love to follow the day's natural rhythm. I sleep in lightweight, comfortable pajamas in the softest cotton. I like to wear something that feels different from my daytime uniform; it's a sort of ritual that induces sleep. After getting up I go to the gym for my daily training session. It seems like a nearly military regimen, but in reality it's extremely satisfying. There's nothing mysterious or out of the ordinary about my exercise routine. I work out for an hour and a half every day with…

Bazaar style director Joanna Hillman reveals her must-haves I'm loving this Eddie Borgo choker with my winter looks. It's a little industrial and a lot chic (1). A good day-to-night heel is hard to find, and this sexy Phillip Lim pump is just right (2). The scarf print on this sleeveless silk Givenchy blouse speaks for itself (3)! My husband has veto power over all my perfumes, but we agree on this sophisticated Balenciaga scent (4). I am a color addict, so this cobalt bag with a gold chain is right up my alley. Proenza's latest version is perfect for lugging around my workday essentials—camera, Band-Aids, umbrella, snacks—I'm like a Girl Scout (5). I just can't say no to a graphic platform (6). This watch belonged to my mother. She…

WHERE FASHION MEETS CULTURE The hottest fashion and culture trends and news to look out for in the year ahead 1. BACK TO THE FUTURE For Louis Vuitton's '60s-chic Spring 2013 show, Marc Jacobs pulled out all the stops—literally. Models descended to the runway via four vertiginous escalators, like visions from a Polly Maggoo-esque department store. Mod checks in aisle two. 2. FLAMENCO DESIGNERS WERE SEDUCED by sultry dancing this season, with outsize ruffles taking over the runways at (from left) Balenciaga, Givenchy, Gucci, and Chloé, to name a few. Whether featuring embellished skirts, necks, or sleeves, these maximal looks are expected to be scene-stealers on the red carpet this coming awards season. Rule of thumb? Wear it with a chic platform heel. Olé! 3. NEW MOVIES Everyone's favorite novels…

We are unlikely to be able to get a grip on this notorious subject if we don't first allow ourselves to acknowledge just how tempting and exhilarating adultery can be, especially after a few years of marriage and a couple of children. Before we can begin to call it "wrong," we have to concede that it is also very often—for a time, at least—profoundly thrilling. Let's go even further and venture that (contrary to all public verdicts on adultery), the real fault might consist in the obverse—that is, in the lack of any wish whatsoever to stray. This might be considered not only weird but wrong in the deepest sense of the word, because it is irrational and against nature. A blanket refusal to entertain adulterous possibilities would seem to…

Their mother presides over an international fashion empire, so it's no surprise that Carolina Herrera's daughters Patricia Herrera Lansing and Carolina Herrera BÁez are preternaturally chic. Though Patricia lives in New York's NoLIta and Carolina in Madrid, the sisters both work for their mother's company (Patricia is a creative consultant; Carolina is the creative fragrance director), and they have a style sensibility that transcends the distance. The designer, of course, had a hand in her daughters' aesthetic. "We have similar tastes—we share," says Carolina. "Twice a year Patricia and I travel together with our families, and when we unpack our suitcases we have a lot of the same things." She credits much of her affinity for beautiful clothes and decor to her upbringing. "I remember my mother having costume parties,…

SAVING FACE Now is the time to overhaul your makeup bag and stock it with quick-fix products to open up your eyes and awaken your complexion in no time. BUY A PRIMER Applying primer requires very little effort and yields big results. "It brightens your skin immediately," says Matin Maulawizada, global artistry director at Laura Mercier. And there's one available for every skin type and issue. Urban Decay's formula boosts moisture for plumper skin, plus camouflages fine lines and large pores. ADD AN ILLUMINATOR Dab on the right amount of highlighter, and within seconds no one will know you didn't get eight hours of sleep. Pat it lightly on the highest point of your cheekbones, the bridge of your nose, and the bow of your mouth for an instantly refreshed…

It is a truth universally acknowledged that Taylor Swift loves dresses. She's loved them since she was a teenager, when she tore out a picture of Gwyneth Paltrow's pink Ralph Lauren Oscar gown from a magazine and walked around the stores at a local mall asking if they had anything like it. "I was 15 and going to prom for the first time, and I saw that picture of Gwyneth in the pink gown," she recalls. "I went all over the mall and showed it to all the store owners and said, 'Do you have anything that looks like this?' And no one did." She guffaws."So there's that. That's a sad…

Bazaar executive accessories editor Sam Broekema shares his favorite things I definitely have a uniform, and blazers by Band of Outsiders are the only ones I buy—they're shrunken without making me look like a child. I've been a huge fan of the brand since it started (1). I love the way this Brunello Cucinelli home fragrance smells—not too girly and not too strong. It's super fresh and clean but doesn't smell like Tide (2). I'm obsessed with vintage watches, and the Patek Philippe Calatrava from the '60s is my all-time favorite. This is a great updated version (3). I order a few custom-made Hamilton shirts every couple of months. It's a wonderful family-run business in Texas, and they have my measurements on file. I hate trying things on (4). I've…

PERSONAL STYLE Upper East Sider Veronica Webb knows a thing or two about versatility. The model and newly minted designer (she's developing a line with OpenSky.com) is constantly on the go, and has mastered the art of packing light. "I have to be able to wear each piece five different ways," says the mother of two young daughters. Webb gravitates toward pieces in strong colors from labels like Theory, Elizabeth and James, Sophie Theallet, Dries Van Noten, and Bottega Veneta. "Nothing makes it into my closet unless it's a star." SARTORIAL STANDBYS "I love dresses. You're ready to go at a moment's notice." Other can't-live-without staples include Anna Baiguera ballet flats (Webb owns four pairs) and MiH jeans (she has more than a week's worth). DESIGNER RELATIONS She's a longtime…

At Christmas I want parties. I always think, as the season nears, that this year I will throw one, and my house will be shining, and the food will be copious and elegant. Yes, I will have a party! Right here in Missoula, Montana, where I've lived for 20 years. I consider whom to invite and settle on Everyone, imagining clusters of enchanting conversation, the surges of laughter. I will remember to buy cocktail napkins. I will wear a full-length gown with bare feet. It'll be grand. Parties should come naturally to me. My people, for whatever reason, have always disdained mandated celebration—weddings, graduations, religious rituals—but parties, with one spotlit, beautifully costumed host, were another matter. As other people might keep butter, in my family every refrigerator contained a bottle…

AQUARIUS JANUARY 21–FEBRUARY 19 Plans to pamper yourself and others could be jeopardized in December. Be smart about your indulgences. You have a breakthrough in January—enjoy your success. MOTTO OF THE MONTH: If a goal is set properly, it's already half achieved. PISCES FEBRUARY 20–MARCH 20 While you may be tempted to question unsupportive colleagues in December, be prepared to hear the truth. In January, accept that it's good to be challenged, but claim your prize when you beat your rival. MOTTO OF THE MONTH: Angry people are rarely reasonable; reasonable people are rarely angry. ARIES MARCH 21–APRIL 20 In December, you'll come to realize that in order to achieve great things, you don't have to go in for a lot of self-promotion; success comes through hard work and commitment.…

Pretty primer: The new holiday makeup, hair, and nails 1. HIGH-POWERED POUT Try the trend: A Bordeaux lip looks fresh now "A rich red lip worn with perfected skin and minimal mascara feels modern," says Chanel makeup artist Rachel Goodwin. Prevent deep shades from bleeding into the fine lines around your mouth by first outlining and filling in lips with a red pencil. "It will add life to your dark lip color and reduce feathering," promises Goodwin. For just the right amount of shine, apply gloss to the center of your upper lip only, and then gently press lips together. As your mouth is the focus, balance the rest of your face by highlighting your skin with an illuminating primer, and conceal imperfections with foundation. Last step: Open your eyes…

If your teeth aren't white, you could be tacking an additional decade on to your appearance. "It doesn't make sense to dye your hair, get Botox, and use antiaging serums if you're not whitening your teeth," says Nancy Rosen, a cosmetic and restorative dentist in New York. The good news is "whitening your teeth is one of the fastest ways to turn back the clock." For the quickest option, ask your dentist about Zoom! Advance, a one-hour in-office treatment that can lighten your teeth by three to 10 shades. Prefer at-home options? Here are the shortcuts to a brighter smile. EAT AND DRINK STRATEGICALLY You already know what's staining your teeth: your latte, red wine, berries, to name a few. We're not saying to give them up, but you do…

WHATEVER YOU DO, don't call Peggy Siegal a film industry veteran. "?'Veteran' sounds like the Elks club," chirps Siegal, a publicist who has worked with Hollywood heavyweights from Steven Spielberg to Harvey Weinstein on film promotions, premieres, and private screenings for five decades. "Ancient? Walking dead? Well preserved like a mummy?" She speaks enthusiastically and amusingly, and it's hard to get a word in edgewise. "What's more feminine than 'veteran' and not as obnoxious as 'legendary'?" It's a question she doesn't really want answered because by the time I think of a response, she's moved on. We're lunching at the New York media watering hole Michael's, where everyone from Chris Cuomo of ABC News to CBS's Gayle King swings by to say hi, and the latter of whom says about…

Silvia Venturini Fendi has it in the bag Fendi bag, $2,730, and key chain. 212-759-4646. "SHE WAS A VERY TRENDY, VERY SEXY ROMAN PLAYGIRL.'' Apparently I don't exist in this hotel," Silvia Venturini Fendi says with a sigh as she takes her seat at a grand gilded breakfast room at a top Paris hotel. The reception desk has just done a mind-blowing job of botching her morning meeting. Shaking out a well-starched napkin onto her lap, she points out, "This never used to happen at the Ritz." The temporary closing of one of the city's poshest hotels forced the crèmiest of Paris Fashion Week's crème to slum it this season in alternative accommodations. Consequently, Fendi's creative director of accessories and kidswear, and her jewelry designer daughter, Delfina Delettrez, have been…

Glenda Bailey on the highlights of the new season During Paris Fashion Week in October, I was fortunate enough to be awarded the Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres, at an event hosted by Hearst International's Duncan Edwards and Jeannette Chang. It's an honor as big as its name, and to make the occasion even more special, my dear friend Alber Elbaz gave a speech (not to mention making me a special sash to pin my medal on—pure pageantry). Alber and I have been on many a fashion adventure, including the time I had him sit in the lake in Central Park for a portrait just before the 2005 CFDA Awards, when he was named International Designer of the Year.

She counts Ralph Lauren as one of her favorite designers and loves visiting his stores, which she says are "like a library but with gorgeous clothes." For her signature sparkly dresses and swingy shifts on the red carpet, Taylor favors "J. Mendel, Elie Saab, and Reem Acra." Her favorite look? The silver sequined Kaufman Franco dress she wore to the Video Music Awards in 2009, which she paired with a red lip. Beautywise, Taylor likes a retro eye (using CoverGirl LashBlast mascara and LineBlast eyeliner) and bright nails ("I paint them blue, purple, or red"). And she always follows her golden rule: "Pick one thing to go bold with, either your lips or your eyes. Don't try to make…

FLOWER POWER Prada's necklace is best in show For her Spring 2013 collection, Miuccia Prada looked to the Far East, finding inspiration for her Plexiglas-and-crystal link necklace in the mystique of geishas and Japanese florals. She elaborated on the theme with an eye-catching ramage motif—the metal-alloy branches encircling each link—to add a dimension of movement. Black and white serve as the yin and yang of the graphic-sweet piece, which is a worthy complement to the designer's swinging '60s ready-to-wear looks. It's safe to say that this season's petal pushing is one trend we can really get behind. Prada necklace, $2,295. prada.com.…

THIS IS MY FAVORITE time of year, and it's not because of the holidays. It's because I'm charged with looking at the past 12 months of style and compiling the year's Best-Dressed List. So when I asked myself who were my favorite girls of 2012, the answer was clear: Rihanna and Gwyneth Paltrow in black and white. I've always been a fan of Gwynnie's, and when she sashayed down the Oscars' red carpet in Tom Ford's slinky white column dress and cape, I swooned. I attended Tom's presentation in London when this dress debuted, and everyone could tell it was destined for greatness. Gwyneth's greatness, as it were. While I've been a longtime Gwynophile, I've only recently come around to Rihanna. This year, though, she mixed elegance and glamour into…

There's something to be said for the mystique of transformation. During her turn as Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's, Audrey Hepburn—everybody's favorite fashion icon and early champion of the Little Black Dress—updates her simple shift in minutes with the addition of a hat, gloves, and kitten heels. While opera-length gloves and Hepburn tiaras may not be very 2013, the spirit of adapting a look from day to night feels more modern than ever. The era of lugging a sequined dress to work and slinking out of a skirt suit in the office bathroom at 6 P.M. is over. It's a function of economy and creativity—today's best party looks are a clever twist on the workaday outfit that transcends the time stamp. The most obvious way to effect the evening…

IN A CLASSIC EPISODE of the 1950s TV show What's My Line?, the blindfolded panelists are stumped. "Are you a performer?" one asks the mischievous guest. "Yes." "Would you be considered a leading man?" "Yes." An athlete? A writer? A comic-strip illustrator? Have your exploits made headlines? All affirmative. To uproarious laughter from the studio audience, a confounded contestant demands, "You are a human being?" Perhaps it was the foreign accent, or maybe the seemingly egotistical self-assessment, but one panelist finally queries if the guest has a mustache, one, moreover, by which he could be caricatured. "Yes." "Are you Salvador DalÍ?" Dalí's answers were all true as far as he was concerned. He refused to be limited. "He wanted to be everything," says Hank Hine, executive director of Florida's Dalí…

Give yourself a head-to-toe makeover in nine days with these expert hair, skin, and body tips. GREAT SKIN If you spent the holiday season eating all the wrong foods, sleeping too little, and celebrating too much, there's a good chance that your complexion is going to look worn and lackluster. But once you begin the right skin-care routine, "you can start seeing superficial improvements, like tighter, smoother skin, in just a couple of days," says Ellen Marmur, a New York dermatologic and cosmetic surgeon. Get going now with our top skin picks. LIFT YOUR EYES The skin around the eyes is the thinnest, which is why it tends to age first. Get your lids looking younger fast with twice-daily use of one of these new eye creams. Kiehl's Rosa Arctica…

A life well lived includes the luxury of a perfectly poured cocktail, argues Christine Lennon It's my last remaining vice, or at least my last remaining regular vice, or my last remaining regular vice suitable for print. I've had a drink every day, or at least more days than not, for as long as I can remember. But I don't remember noticing what a nightly ritual it had become until my twins were about six months old. Of course I quit when I was pregnant, without much effort. But then, as they got older, the moment I knew they were asleep I'd sneak out the back door to pick a lemon and a lime from the trees in our yard, dart back to the kitchen, grab the Luxardo cherries, a…

The late Nora Ephron may have been the first to declare publicly how bad she felt about her neck, but women everywhere understand the feeling. In fact, some of those who are most troubled by the dreaded turkey wattle are not yet at the midcentury mark—significantly younger than Ephron was when she penned her treatise. And these women are not donning turtlenecks and scarves à la Ephron: They're taking action, opting for high-tech neck-lifts with fast results. A long, smooth, elegant neck has always been a coveted feature. "Consider some of the all-time great beauties—Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor," says Sam Rizk, a New York plastic surgeon who specializes in face and neck work. "That crisp and clean neckline is the gold standard of youth." The neck ages similarly to the…
