THE PHRASE “IT FEELS LIKE HOME” can mean many things, but more often than not, what we’re referring to when we say it isn’t a physical place. It can be a familiarity or something that reminds us of where we came from or the influences that surrounded us or color our earliest memories. It can also be something we’ve never experienced before, something we’ve longed to feel and have finally found, a safety or a sense of belonging. It can be the people we grew up around, the ones who shaped our understanding of the world early on, or the people we find along the way, the ones who see us for who we really are and alter our trajectories in positive ways. Home can be a space or an…

THIS PAST MARCH, a woman in New York uploaded a video of herself to TikTok politely but desperately trying to find out who had accidentally taken her beloved black cashmere Max Mara coat from a rack in a Chinatown salon. The follow-up video, in which she shared security footage of the coat being removed, has racked up 1.6 million views. Many of the commenters were quick to offer messages of support, like “I bought a Max Mara coat for Xmas and it never leaves my sight. Sorry it got taken” and “Max Mara…like. Press charges” and “This gives me Carrie Bradshaw Manolos at that party.” The woman never got the coat back, but her story seemed to have a ripple effect across the social-media landscape, where Max Mara’s enviable range…

Today’s perfume options are designed to be a part of a scent rotation and styled like any other accessory you own. “Consumers love the individuality of choosing a fragrance reflecting a mood or occasion,” says Givaudan perfumer Gwen Gonzalez. “Signature scents still have their place, but wardrobing and layering scents is an evolution of the concept.” The Bazaar Fragrance Awards winners below represent the perfumes we fell in love with this year, broken down by how we feel when we wear them. From sexy scents to delicious gourmands, fresh florals that go beyond the petal, and unorthodox yet cool takes on classic notes, ahead are the 24 bottles that deserve a spot on your vanity.…

When I meet Mr. Armani—never Giorgio, even to those in his inner sanctum—on the eve of his 90th birthday this past summer, he is at home in Milan, surveying his light-dappled Japanese garden as construction work takes place. Though he is smaller than you might think, it’s here that the portrait of the man behind the myth, one of fashion’s last eponymous titans, reaches full scale. “I love being at home. It’s my safe, placid space,” he tells me via a translator. “The biggest misconception about me is that I am cold and distant. In truth, I am a shy person who cherishes affection from a close circle of loved ones.” This month, far from Mr. Armani’s Milan address, Armani is opening a new 12-story limestone building on Madison Avenue…

I began writing this letter from my mom’s house. It isn’t the house I grew up in, yet it is the one I call home. This got me thinking about what makes a home, which is the theme of this month’s issue. The answer I keep coming back to is that it’s a space of belonging. I can make a home anywhere; it’s something I had to learn how to do early on, and it is centered on feelings of peace, comfort, and safety. It’s seldom an actual physical space. So you won’t find a traditional house tour in this issue, but you will find different explorations of how we find and make a home. If home can be about a feeling of familiarity, then millions find a sense of…

In January 2023, Julia Fox posted a tour of the Manhattan apartment she was living in with her young son, Valentino, to TikTok, and it immediately went viral. The space in the video—a small and cluttered two-bedroom—came as a surprise to fans who had become accustomed to seeing photos of Fox wearing elaborate designer looks at high-profile events. Some followers roasted her for how “regular” the place appeared, while others praised her for her transparency around what single parenthood looks like for so many New Yorkers. (Fox and Valentino’s father split in 2020.) What most viewers didn’t know was that Fox had been working to save up enough money to buy a more permanent home for herself and her son. Four months later, it was revealed that she had copurchased…

Color has always been an integral component of Hermès’s design ethos, which is why the artful Trait d’Hermès pencils offer more than an elegant formula. “Rich color is in the DNA of the house, and we created a veritable kaleidoscope of boundless options,” says Gregoris Pyrpylis, creative director of Hermès Beauty. The eye and lip shades are both fun and familiar; look for the same orange and brown hues from the house’s iconic boxes in the collection.…

Mongiardino. Catroux. Precisely two names came to mind when I pondered topics for the Home issue. Of course, the former is interiors legend Renzo Mongiardino, who was born in Genoa, Italy, based in Milan, and created ornate residences that were a mix of historical reverence, theatrical drama, and technical trickery. He loved rich fabrics, antique furniture, and bold colors; his clients included everyone from Gianni Agnelli to Aristotle Onassis. When he died in 1998 at the age of 81, the first line of his obituary in The New York Times noted that he was considered by many to be “the world’s greatest living interior decorator.” So what if he hated the d word and preferred to be called a “creator of ambiance”? The latter: François Catroux, French modernist icon, who…

When Jennie steps out in public, it is practically an act of bravery. The mononymous global pop star, fashion icon, and, most notably, member of the record-shattering K-pop group Blackpink is so inundated with paparazzi at Fashion Week and obsessed over by fans at shows that even the most mundane aspects of her life can trigger international news cycles. The majority of her adulthood has been a commitment to country and fandom, so she’s practiced in being observed; when she notices it, she sits up straighter, smiles a bit brighter, works a little harder. She can’t place when that started happening exactly, but it’s something she’s learned she can turn on, especially when she performs: “Anyone who meets me will say I’m so far from what I represent as me…

KATE MOSS ISN’T from Berlin, but the supermodel looked very much in her element in a September 2000 fashion story photographed for Harper’s Bazaar by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin and set amid the pastiche of old and new and classical and modern that then defined the German capital. A little more than a decade after the Berlin Wall fell, the city was still searching for a new identity, as its inhabitants sought to escape the shadows of World War II and the Iron Curtain and forge a different future. In the earlier part of the 20th century, Berlin was home to a thriving avant-garde, a European cultural hub that celebrated art and newness in all its forms, from Bauhaus architecture to the Weimar-era cabarets, Marlene Dietrich, and Bertolt…
