Indholdsfortegnelse for June 2018 i ELLE

1 VISIT With their boundless imagination and over-the-top shows, Dutch design duo Viktor & Rolf always manage to thrill. On the brand’s twenty-fifth anniversary, Rotterdam’s Kunsthal museum presents some of Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren’s greatest hits, like this Candyland-meets-Oz look worn by Shalom Harlow for their spring 2009 collection. (May 27–September 30, kunsthal.nl.) 2 WATCH Girls Trip and The Last O.G. star Tiffany Haddish (who singlehandedly launched the worldwide investigation into Who bit Beyoncé?) makes history on June 18 as the first black woman ever to host the MTV Movie & TV Awards. If her growing fan base has anything to say about it, her next hosting gig will be the Oscars. Academy, take note. 3 SHOP Ceramist and midcentury-design maven Jonathan Adler celebrates his eponymous brand’s twenty-fifth anniversary…

For me, ELLE has always been more than a magazine. It’s a place you can come to recharge your mind and spirit. To that end, this month we focus on wellness, a concept often conflated with weight loss and easy body-image “fixes.” And while diet and exercise are crucial to your health—you’ll find tips for both in the following pages—this issue is not dedicated to getting fit fast. Instead, we highlight small ways in which to feel better for the long term. That’s because wellness isn’t a one-size-fits-all proposition. One woman’s marathon workout is another woman’s Netflix binge. Our cover star, Kendall Jenner, seeks balance by doing a little of both. Last year, Jenner became the world’s highest-paid supermodel (a title Gisele Bündchen had held for the past 15 years).…

1 FACE TIME An opal isn’t just a stone, it’s “an invitation to enter a fairy tale and experience magic,” says Victoire de Castellane. For 20 years, the creative director of Dior Fine Jewelry has applied a sorcerer’s touch to creating distinctly whimsical heirlooms. Her latest trick: La D de Dior Précieuse à Secret. Inspired by the private passageways and clandestine boudoirs of Versailles, it features a 7.38-carat opal cabochon that pivots to reveal a rose gold and pavé diamond face. “This timepiece is, above all, a bracelet,” de Castellane says. “It just happens to be a bracelet that tells time.” 2 CLOVER CLUB “To be lucky, you have to believe in luck,” Jacques Arpels used to say. The French jewelry scion was so intrigued with the notion that he…

Brand Loyalty It’s hard to believe that Karl Lagerfeld designed the now-iconic double-F logo for Fendi all the way back in 1965. To commemorate its staying power—and the Roman house’s heritage—the brand emblazoned separates, sneakers, bags, and more for a special Fendi FF capsule collection that’s anything but subtle. CRYSTAL Visions Already a favorite among the wellness crowd, crystals have staked their claim on fashion. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen gave out clear quartz (to promote balance and harmony) and black tourmaline (to repel negative energy) at The Row’s fall show. Victoria Beckham, who travels with an assortment of the power stones, incorporated them into her prefall collection on necklaces and charms that double as key chains (above). Carry them daily to keep bad juju at bay. TEAM Player Gucci’s Alessandro…

VIBRANT EYES Smart application makes intense shades totally wearable: The key is to avoid blending shadow too far past the crease. To pull off bold mascara, Maybelline New York global makeup artist Erin Parsons advises picking a deep color and lining your waterlines with a pencil in a matching shade. Keep all other makeup minimal. HIGH-IMPACT LIPS Coral orange and fuchsia are “an exciting kind of a twist” on classic red, says celebrity makeup artist James Kaliardos. Parsons recommends matte formulas, which are more controllable and won’t slide around. For balance, keep your skin a bit dewy. “When you’re using matte lip color, the whole face can look flat,” Kaliardos says. “Glowing skin helps you pull off a strong look.” BOLD BLUSH The new way to wear blush is to…

The gut produces 95 percent of the body’s mood-stabilizing neurotransmitter serotonin, and a healthy diet will optimize that process. “You’re not going to look your best until you feel your best,” says Naomi Whittel, a Florida-based nutritional wellness expert and the author of Glow15. “That only happens when we heal the microbiome in the gut.” But even when we recognize that food affects everything from our temperament to the clarity of our skin, it can be difficult—especially in the grab-and-go of daily life—to know exactly what to eat and when to eat it. Here, we break down some simple diet guidelines to follow every day, starting with New York integrative medicine expert Frank Lipman, MD’s golden rule: “The closer you keep to nature, the better.” FIRST: PROBIOTICS Everyone can benefit…

EVERYDAY ESSENTIALS Wake-up routine: “I like to have slow, gentle mornings. I’ll use a light cleanser and the Clé de Peau Beauté La Crème, which I use in the evening, too.” Complexion savers: “If my skin feels like it really needs it—especially in cold weather—I use the Clé de Peau Beauté Firming Serum Supreme ($300). A couple of times a week, I exfoliate with Caudalie Gentle Buffing Cream ($35).” SPF: “My favorite sunscreen is the La Roche-Posay Anthelios Mineral SPF 50 tinted sunscreen ($34). It’s pretty light and doesn’t cause any skin problems for me.” Mane musts: “A hairstylist on a film I worked on introduced me to Davines, and I love it. I use the Oi shampoo ($14) and conditioner ($15), which make your hair feel really healthy.” Signature…

THE NUTRITIONIST Who: Lisa Curtis Her company: Kuli Kuli (kulikulifoods.com) Problem: Widespread vitamin deficiencies and malnutrition. Solution: As a Peace Corps volunteer in Niger, Curtis learned about moringa from local nurses, who “pulled leaves off moringa trees and mixed them with a peanut snack called kuli-kuli,” she says. The leaves—rich in calcium, iron, and vitamin B—inspired her company, which sources moringa from family farms and women-owned cooperatives. After four years on the market, Kuli Kuli products are sold in over 6,000 U.S. stores (as a bar, tea, powder, or energy shot); the company has planted more than a million moringa trees and brought profits exceeding $1.5 million to rural farmers. THE COUNSELOR Who: Ashley Edwards Her company: MindRight (getmindright.org) Problem: Chronic stress in low-income communities. Solution: MindRight’s texting service pairs…

THE RETREATMENT BY TARYN TOOMEY MARTHA’S VINEYARD July 8–14 Fashion alum–turned–wellness guru Taryn Toomey’s signature invention, The Class—a hybrid of cardio, yoga, and cathartic screaming—has such an avid following that she’s added extra retreat weeks to accommodate the demand. This summer’s weeklong get-together at the charming Vineyard Arts Project in Edgartown (a cultural center with boutique-hotel-worthy bedrooms) channels the challenging vibe of Toomey’s Tribeca, New York, studio while also allowing guests to unwind with bike rides, gentle yoga with guest instructor Kevin Courtney, and acupuncture with herbal medicine expert Thomas Droge. Daily sessions of The Class, which promises to purge stress and emotional blockages (as well as tone everything from triceps to glutes), are followed by afternoon workshops on topics such as crystal healing, farm-to-table cooking, and natural skin care.…

From the moment they caught Coco Chanel’s eye on the beach at Deauville, the hallmarks of French naval uniforms have had a lasting influence on the house. Among the most iconic: the Breton-stripe top, adopted by the country’s navy in 1858. Its 21 stripes (one for each of Napoleon’s victories) enabled overboard sailors to be more easily spotted from the deck. The versatile knit proved to be a mainstay in Chanel’s own wardrobe, frequently paired with high-waisted flared trousers. This season, Karl Lagerfeld also looked to the sea for his prefall 2018 Métiers d’Art collection, which he presented at his shipping-port hometown of Hamburg, Germany. Lagerfeld’s take on the nautical motif was more subdued, dominated by navy fisherman sweaters and slick satin evening numbers. A feather overlay on one three-tiered…

The Bag There are more than 1,000 styles of the Fendi Baguette, which launched in 1997. The brand’s latest logoed dazzler heralds the triumphant return of the iconic shape. The Necklace The new iteration of the Panthère de Cartier necklace sees the French house’s signature feline ready to pounce across collarbone or décolletage. The Slipper Armani’s studded-velvet mocs bring a dose of the maestro’s red-carpet glamour to everyday errands.…

Anyone who’s had a rough week knows the look: puffy eyes, dark circles, the sudden appearance of fine lines. “We call it stress aging,” says Manhattan-based dermatologist and psychiatrist Amy Wechsler, MD. “Daily stressors such as a demanding job, a lack of sleep, and an unhealthy lifestyle can manifest as pallid patches, pimples, and wrinkles, which can add three to six years to your skin.” As dermatologist Whitney Bowe, MD, author of The Beauty of Dirty Skin, explains, “Stress slows down digestion, which creates a shift in bacteria that can compromise the integrity of your gut lining. This can cause inflammation throughout the body and lead to acne flare-ups as well as premature aging.” Furthermore, the stress hormone cortisol is no friend to skin. “It’s infamous for breaking down collagen,”…

According to a recent poll conducted by the National Sleep Foundation, 65 percent of Americans know that a good night’s rest is crucial to being productive and feeling well. And yet only 10 percent of us make it a priority. As with diet and fitness routines, it’s all too easy to slack on sleep. Here, some simple, highly effective steps you can take to get more z’s. RECLAIM YOUR TIME The ideal amount of sleep varies according to an individual’s genetics, but most people need between seven and nine hours, says Michael Breus, PhD, a Los Angeles clinical psychologist and sleep specialist. The average sleep cycle is 90 minutes long, and the average person goes through five cycles a night. To find your optimal duration, go to bed exactly seven…

SILKY SHADOW The five creamy pigments in Dior’s limited-edition Cool Wave Eyeshadow Palette ($63) are easy to tap onto your lid with a finger or blend with a brush for a sapphire smoky eye. CHIC SCENT Spritz on Versace Dylan Blue Pour Femme ($120), an energetic, sexy blend of apple and black currant that leaves behind a whisper of warm patchouli. GLOW BOOSTER A truly luxe face treatment, Milèo New York Maroc D’Azur face oil ($90) not only smells heavenly but contains squalene to plump fine lines and soothe your complexion. FACE SAVER Restore the hydration that sun and surf can steal from your skin with Laneige Water Sleeping Mask ($25). Ionized mineral water helps the moisturizing ingredients penetrate deeply. EASY ACCESSORY Fasten a beachy style in seconds with the…

In her writing, Roxane Gay puts to words the messy, contradictory nature of living in a female body. In a new anthology, Not That Bad: Dispatches From Rape Culture, the best-selling author curates a selection of both original and previously published essays from writers, magazine editors, and actors (among them Gabrielle Union, Lyz Lenz, Brandon Taylor, and Teen Vogue’s Samhita Mukhopadhyay). Together, they interrogate a culture that allows sexual violence. The topics are broad: a teenage boy grappling with masculinity after childhood trauma; a report on the prevalence of rape at the U.S.-Mexico border; a woman who willingly consents to sexual pain. (Writes Brooklyn teacher Nora Salem in her essay: “Perhaps the most horrifying thing about nonconsensual sex is that, in an instant, it erases you.… I’m writing to prove…

1960 Lands first Cali job “I was 14, working in a snack bar at a little beach club in Newport Beach. I made cheeseburgers and malted milks, and I just loved it.” 1965 Scores first onscreen role in The Group “I modeled when I was in college, and director Sidney Lumet saw a picture of me in a magazine. I had a general mindlessness to my life. I just did what was put in front of me. I loved working with Sidney, but I had no idea how to act, which was evident for several years.” 1971 Stars in Carnal Knowledge “Mike Nichols was one of America’s finest directors. There was always laughter on his sets. He ran our set with French hours: without a lunch break. They had a…

“I’m super chilled-out right now,” Kendall Jenner says with a skater-dude lilt. That’s because for her first-ever ELLE cover story, the 22-year-old model asked that she not talk with just anyone. She wanted it to be someone she knew and was comfortable with. Someone with whom she shared a love of good music and classic cars. Enter Lana Del Rey, the pop star, fashion darling, and friend of House Kardashian. The two are chatting on the phone—Jenner in her house in L.A., and Del Rey in Brazil, in between tour gigs—discussing their mental health. Jenner’s struggles with anxiety were a central topic on the last season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, and Del Rey, for one, gets it. “I haven’t spoken that much about my anxiety over the years,”…

SOMEBODY NEEDS A DRINK AROUND HERE DEAR E. JEAN: My sister is a teetotaler, which would be fine if she didn’t regularly lecture those of us who drink about how we are “poisoning” ourselves, “heading to an early demise,” etc. It’s especially frustrating because none of us drink more than two glasses of wine or beer at a family shindig, and I rarely drink at all! We certainly don’t comment on her life choices—for instance, she worships her nutritionist and eats nothing that comes in a can. And aside from one distant aunt, there is no alcoholism in our family. My brother once had a beer at lunch (one—and he is 6'6''), and she refused to get in the car with him on the way home. At the last gathering, when…

Vivienne Westwood helped give tartan its hard-core edge (see the new documentary Westwood: Punk, Icon, Activist, opening June 15). But it was the coddled queen bees of ’80s and ’90s teen movies (think Heathers, Clueless, and Empire Records) that seemed to rule the prefall and fall collections. Bright checks graced miniskirts, puffy-bowed heels, and even slouchy bags. Luckily, this time around, they’re more suited for the C-suite than sixth period.…

Headlines would have you believe that millennials are destroying industries from cereal to soap (with the possible exception of their beloved avocados). But these 22- to 37-year-olds—plus their under-22 successors, known as Generation Z, Generation Y, or postmillennials, depending on whom you ask—are as excited about fashion as ever. They just think about it differently. To put it simply: Fashion 1.0 was all about runway shows; you’d wait months for the collections to arrive in stores. The new iteration works on a more spontaneous timeline of streetwear-influenced “drops,” limited editions, and impromptu collaborations. The clothes look different, too. “Inclusivity, gender neutrality, comfort, casualness—these are all things that are here to stay,” says Lazaro Hernandez, codesigner of Proenza Schouler. It’s an ethos he and partner Jack McCollough applied to their PSWL…

DEEP-CLEAN WEEKLY Dry shampoo, pollution, and natural oils can coat your strands and obstruct hair follicles, resulting in lank locks and slowed hair growth. New York dermatologist Doris Day, MD, recommends using Julien Farel Vitamin Restore Hair & Scalp Treatment ($39) once a week before shampooing. “The antioxidants get rid of the buildup on your scalp that clogs pores and may eventually become toxic,” she explains. “Healthy follicles ultimately give you thicker, better hair.” HYDRATE OFTEN Volumizing shampoo can exacerbate dryness, says TRESemmé global celebrity hairstylist Justine Marjan. For gleaming strands, opt for repairing formulas, like Pantene Pro-V Gold Series Moisture Boost Shampoo ($6) and R+Co Television Perfect Hair Conditioner. SMOOTH GENTLY Hair oil is a holy-grail product: It prevents damage, smooths ends, and boosts shine. But it can also…

THE HEALER Quiet an overactive mind with a meditation session or get some guidance on which crystals to keep on your nightstand from New York–based healer Holly Star, who works with celebrities like Miranda Kerr. Individuals or couples sign on for guided-meditation sessions, which purport to help brighten auras and realign energy. Or you can shop Star’s accessories line, Matter & Home (matterandhome.com), for negativityclearing room sprays and essential oil–infused candles. Holly Star, believe instars.com; 1133 Broadway, New York, NY; 917-476-8149. Cost: $450 per onehour session. THE FACIALIST Michelle Williams and Zoë Kravitz owe their glowy skin to Los Angeles facialist Terri Lawton, who incorporates energy work and stress-relieving craniosacral therapy into her complexion treatments for a holistic boost. If you’re looking for something a bit more traditional, Lawton also…

Jared Leto is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside a Gucci print. He’s designer Alessandro Michele’s muse, an Oscar winner for the AIDS drama Dallas Buyers Club, a Silicon Valley investor who’s had stakes in Uber and Spotify, and a Method actor who—in preparation for his role as the Joker in Suicide Squad—once sent costar Margot Robbie an actual rat. Even his house is on-brand: In 2015, Leto bought a massive former Air Force base in L.A., where conspiracy theorists believe footage was shot to fake the moon landing. But Leto’s most personal work has always been his music. His electro-synth-rock band, Thirty Seconds to Mars—written off as a vanity project back when it launched in 1998—has sold more than 15 million albums and is on tour this summer.…

In her second short-story collection, Florida, Lauren Groff (of Fates and Furies fame) introduces her home state of sinkholes, unruly weather, and heat-induced unrest. Sayaka Murata’s novel Convenience Store Woman playfully illustrates the daily routines and ruminations of an eccentric Tokyo salesclerk. In Zora Neale Hurston’s Barracoon, the Harlem Renaissance folklorist shares her (until now unpublished) conversations with Atlantic slave trade survivor Oluale Kossola.…

“My entire career has been behind the camera, and that’s definitely where I’m most comfortable. Being considered a public figure honestly makes me laugh.” Lindsay Shookus isn’t famous. Or is she? As she enters the restaurant of New York’s chic Whitby Hotel, a few blocks north of her office at 30 Rockefeller Plaza, other diners narrow their eyes, trying to figure out how they know the tall blonde in the black leather jacket. Is she an actress? A musician? They’ve seen her before, but where? The idea skitters about their brains for a few seconds before disappearing in a puff, unanswered. They return to their $30 salads, unenlightened. Shookus is fine with that. Her job is to make people famous, not to be the one turning heads. She’s a 37-year-old…

Even before it all came tumbling down, Elizabeth Holmes was riveting. Her baritone voice. Those black turtlenecks. The seemingly endless plaudits she received from the tech world. That well-crafted narrative about how her fear of needles and desire to change the world led her to found a company, Theranos, that she said could perform complicated medical tests with only a finger-prick of blood. She exhibited all the qualities that women are typically discredited for—fashion quirks, outrageous ambition, unusual vocal tics, failure to provide hard evidence—and soaked up rounds and rounds of funding anyway. Theranos’s board was stacked with the kind of old white guys whose approval has long been synonymous with power. Holmes performed a sleight of hand not often achieved by women in public life. She didn’t have to…

BEND IT LIKE BALDWIN Privacy is a hard-won luxury for model Hailey Baldwin. She’s rocked the runways of fashion empires like Dolce & Gabbana, Moschino, and Tommy Hilfiger. Her Instagram followers tally upwards of 11 million. And her jaunts to the gym or the set of her raucous TBS rap-battle show, Drop the Mic, are tabloid fodder. Under such scrutiny, the 21-year-old keeps her stress in check by breaking a sweat. “I’ve been boxing for the last three years. It reminds me of dance in how coordinated it is,” says Baldwin, who spent last summer flashboxing at Rumble in New York. “I was in the best shape I’ve ever been.” For emotional support, she turns to her parents (her dad is actor Stephen Baldwin) and friends like ELLE cover star…

Gemini May 21–June 21 Treat yourself to a meaningful birthday gift, like a smartwatch to track appointments or a rejuvenating yoga retreat to reboot wellness goals. On the 13th, the year’s only new moon in Gemini helps you break free from a messy entanglement, so reclaim your independence. Looking to partner up instead? The 28th’s full moon reveals a worthy candidate. Cancer June 22–July 22 Set your status to “Away” as an untamable case of wanderlust hits near the 1st.

You’re back in action-hero mode on the 21st, when the Sun beams into Cancer and powers up personal ambition. Leo July 23–Aug…
