When it came to the merging of sound and vision, David Bowie was in a league of his own. His dynamic style was a form of self-expression through which he became a symbol of selfinvention (and reinvention), and thus cemented his place in pop culture history. He redefined gender norms, shattered stereotypes and pushed the boundaries of fashion with an influence that can still be seen some 50 years after his career began. And so it was, just four weeks before FQ’s music issue went to print that news broke of Bowie’s passing. We had already planned to honour Ziggy, Aladdin and The Duke within our pages but the star’s death made this issue all the more poignant for me and my team. Our Golden Years shoot (page 112) and…

UNDER WRAPS It’s that feeling of layering up in soft, luxurious fabrics that gives this look so much autumn appeal. Opt for quality fibres of cashmere, cotton and merino that work beautifully together without the bulk. A jumper tied around the waist adds effortless dimension to any ensemble. Softly spoken Contrasting textures let you layer without looking overdone, and similar hues create cohesion. Pair a chunky oatmeal knit with a sheer white silk skirt and anchor the ensemble with a solid shoe for balance. The effect is effortless and laid-back.…

BAGS OF COLOUR Colour, energy and functionality are the focus of Karen Walker’s AW16 ‘Star City’ handbag collection. Designed in conjunction with the brand’s ready-to-wear line, the range includes satchels, duffels, totes and small leather goods finished with Karen Walker’s iconic gold arrow hardware. Tassel rocket attachments as key rings or bag charms are a nod to the 1960s cosmonaut training base in the Soviet Union that inspired the collection. In store and online from mid-March. karenwalker.com MEASURE UP Whether you are planning a wedding, milestone birthday or choosing a gorgeous gown for a special event, bespoke tailoring is a luxury option.

The most diva-ish thing Jimmy Mac has ever seen was Ariana Grande being carried offstage by her bodyguard “like a baby”. The most diva-ish thing he has ever done came after a flight from New York to London. “I had a really bad cold,” he recalls. “So instead of checking into the hotel with everyone I went straight to the doctor.” Three hours later he arrived at the hotel only for the front-desk staff to deny him access because he couldn’t prove who he was. When, after another hour of negotiating, he got to his room and his room key didn’t work, all hell broke loose. “I just lost it,” he says. “I went back to reception and tore into the guy.” By the time it was established that Jimmy…

“Makeup can be glamorous, it just doesn’t need to be overt” Forget Valencia, Amaro, Hudson and Rise, when it comes to putting your best face forward, we all know that #nofilter (and a dial-up on the brightening spectrum) is the filter du jour. Where once we were all about getting creative with sepia tones, obvious editing apps have become passé, and so has caked-on foundation. Applying the correct foundation is like having Photoshop at your fingertips, but it’s not always easy to get it right – especially when YouTube tutorials leave you feeling like a face full of makeup is the only way forward. “While it’s always popular to not wear a lot of makeup, with social media and YouTube, a lot of girls are now seeing the opposite,” says…

JESSICA GRUBIŠA | HARMAN GRUBIŠA “The Chronic 2001 is one of my favourite albums of all time.

When Grammy-nominated soulsinger Leon Bridges came to town we got an interview and an eight page editorial spread. For his troubles, Leon walked away with a one-of-a-kind smoking jacket by New Zealand’s premium tailors, Crane Brothers, and as it turns out, this was a coup for both parties. “When I’m on the road I don’t have time to shop, and I don’t have anybody offering to send me anything,” Leon had said earlier in the day, explaining that the two Sandro Paris suits he’d been wearing throughout his tour were just collateral from a photoshoot. What followed wasn’t calculated – Leon’s comments hadn’t left the couch where the interview had taken place – but Murray Crane’s sixth sense prompted him to gift Leon his favourite jacket from our shoot. When…

Fashion is a fickle thing. Take the silk slip – the it-dress of the 90s, popularised by Kate Moss and Jennifer Aniston and then relegated back to the bedroom, only to be seen two decades later on the likes of Nicole Richie and Rihanna. It sounds very arbitrary. In many ways, it is. But as sure as the sun will rise, so too do trends come full circle. In the case of the slip, let’s just say morning has broken (again) and this is your wake-up call. Boudoir chic returned a few seasons ago, when pyjama-inspired separates, camisoles and robes became runway, red-carpet and street-style staples. It peaked in 2015 with the rise of the bralette – a bra by any other name. Still, as former Victoria’s Secret Angel and…

TEE OFF The following is a cautionary tale about a girl named Kendall Jenner. In 2013, Kendall tweeted to her 15 million Twitter followers “I don’t know how anyone can listen to heavy metal.” In 2014, Kendall attended the MuchMusic Video Awards wearing a T-shirt that paid homage to the metal band, Slayer. The incongruity of these events was not lost on the online community; memes were generated, Kendall was ridiculed. Then in 2015, Slayer guitarist Gary Holt took to the stage in a T-shirt that read “Kill the Kardashians”. Further memes were generated, Kendall was ridiculed some more. All of this ridicule might have been entirely misplaced. It’s possible that between the ages of 17 and 18, Kendall’s tastes simply evolved. But assuming that this wasn’t the case, you…

Connecting to Megan James on her landline took a few attempts, not because of technical problems but because she was shifting boxes around and didn’t hear the phone ringing. “I just moved across the country, which shouldn’t take a year but it kind of did,” she says. The country that Megan ‘just’ moved across is her native Canada. Her journey was an almost 4000km reverse pilgrimage from the Nova Scotian port of Halifax where she’d lived for three years, to her hometown of Edmonton, Alberta, where she and Purity Ring bandmate, Corin Roddick, first met as teenagers. Back then, Megan and Corin were making music together as members of the electro-pop band, Gobble Gobble (now Born Gold). At the same time, Corin was starting to produce his own music as…

You are bound to have more than one pair of jeans, a few handbags for different occasions and a selection of footwear to see you through the seasons, so it makes sense that a range of opticals should be part of your repertoire, too. Most eyewear prescriptions last for at least two years, so why wear the same frame all the time? Dispensing optician at Hamilton’s Insight Eye Care, Isobel Martinez, says three pairs of specs is ideal and Insight Eyecare’s beautifully edited selection of styles from leading designers, including Karen Walker, Kate Sylvester, Andrea Moore and Moscot, all hold their own in your eyewear collection. When curating your own versatile collection, start with the basics. “I suggest a strong look from Moscot or Age Eyewear in black or tortoiseshell,…

Adult acne can creep up unannounced at any time. If your hormones are having a private party inside your body, not even a diet of kale smoothies is going to stop them... What does that crop of pimples along your jawline say about you? Haven’t washed your face for a week? Been binging on chocolate during your Making a Murderer marathon? The truth is, while diet and skincare all play a part, adult acne can creep up unannounced at any time. If your hormones are having a private party inside your body, not even a diet of kale smoothies is going to stop them causing an unsightly eruption. But if regular consumption of candy and cola has triggered a bout of candida in your gut, then upping those leafy greens…
