1 SEE Contemporary Muslim Fashions, at San Francisco’s de Young Museum, examines the sweeping impact as well as the subtleties of Islamic dress codes, spotlighting modest looks from designers such as Malaysia-based Haslinda Rahim of Blancheur (above, a striking ensemble from spring 2016). The exhibit demonstrates how social media has led to the rise of Muslim women as style arbiters far beyond their communities. (September 22 to January 6, 2019; deyoungmuseum.org) 2 SHOP Leave it to Fabiana Filippi, the Italian brand known for its cloudlike knits and menswear-inspired outerwear, to help elevate loungewear. The new “My Private Life” capsule collection features cozy cardigans, dressing gowns, and jogging pants in cashmere so dreamy, you’ll be tempted to sport them well beyond the couch. (Cashmere shawl, $2,365, silk satin gown, $1,380, top,…

ADUT AKECH Akech was born in a refugee camp in Kenya before emigrating to Australia at age six. (She went by Mary in high school—because teachers couldn’t pronounce her name—before recently reverting to her birth name. She has said, “I want to be Adut; Adut is unique.”) Her runway credits have piled up since her auspicious debut closing Saint Laurent’s spring 2018 extravaganza at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. Recently, she closed the Chanel couture show as the bride, only the second black woman to do so. Along the way, she acquired none other than Naomi Campbell as her mentor: The supermodel texts to check in on her frequently. ELLA BALES Brooklyn born and raised, Bales grew up wanting to join the WNBA but found her height (5'11") suited…

Here’s an understatement: Kaia Gerber has proven herself pretty adept at wearing clothes. (Naturally: Her mom is Cindy Crawford.) Now, like the Hadids and Jenners before her, she’s making the time-honored pivot into designing them. But this is no standard merch. The 16-year-old supermodel has netted herself one of the biggest-name collaborators out there: Karl Lagerfeld, who has been one of her most ardent boosters in the industry. The resulting collection is an equal mix of their signature styles—Gerber’s Instagram-friendly California casual (cropped hoodies, cutout dresses) and Lagerfeld’s hard-edged traditionalism (nipped-in blazers and fingerless gloves). Because Karl doesn’t do understated, expect the celebration to kick off with buzzy launch events in New York, L.A., and Paris. CHOICE PIECES The model-off-duty look meets strict Kaiser chic.…

MATERIAL GIRL Since launching her brand in 2001, Stella McCartney has made innovation in sustainability a priority. Her fall 2018 collection features reused materials, like repurposed daisy silk mix jacquard (see dress, right). And her new Loop sneaker, which was developed over 18 months, is made without any toxic glue—meaning the upper can be detached from the sole, making the entire shoe recyclable. EXTRA CREDIT For Joshua Mudgett, science is the foundation of great fashion. The Parsons student created his own artificial-intelligence program that exports garment designs based on his aesthetic and design preferences. He also developed biofabricated materials like Meduso, a silicon alternative made with jellyfish DNA that will break down in the ocean.

Though she’s been working with Dior since 2012, Jennifer Lawrence’s role as the face of the French design house’s latest fragrance, Joy, brings things to a deeper level. “Miss Dior actually takes me back to my mother. It was what my mom wore and the first perfume I ever smelled,” she says in L.A. as her pup, Pippi Lawrence Stocking, happily curls up in her skirt. So when Lawrence flew to Paris to meet with Dior’s legendary perfumer, François Demachy, she brought her mom, Karen, along with her: “It was kind of personal between the two of us.” The release of Joy marks Dior’s first major pillar-scent launch since J’adore, nearly 20 years ago. Lawrence fans might assume the fragrance’s name is linked to the actress’s Oscar-nominated role in the…

MOVIE ICON IN THE MAKING When 31-year-old Cynthia Erivo says “It doesn’t feel real” over the phone, the British singer-actress could be talking about literally anything that’s happened to her in the last few years: winning a 2016 Tony for The Color Purple (in the year of Hamilton, no less); belting for the Obamas at the Kennedy Center; or already finding herself just one Oscar shy of an EGOT. But no, Erivo is referring to something even more epic—her speed-dial status with Oprah, whom she met during The Color Purple’s run. “If I get an email from her, it’s still strange,” she says. “She’s like a unicorn. You don’t know that she really exists until you see her in real life.” But that’s what happens when you blow the rafters…

Last December 21, Miss America was sitting in an Applebee’s in Bismarck, North Dakota, eating an Oriental chicken salad, when she got a text letting her know an article was about to drop that would reorder her life. Since she’d been crowned on September 10 in Atlantic City, New Jersey, it was rare for her to have a moment when she could simply be Cara Mund, a 24-year-old who had grown up on a quiet, meandering street nearby, an only child whose mother, a school psychologist she describes as her best friend, had been diagnosed with cancer three times and whose father was a civil engineer. Home for Christmas, she was on the first extended break she’d had in months. By the time she checked her phone, the article was…

Seven hundred miles south of the White House, Omarosa Manigault Newman is in a soulless restaurant at Jacksonville International Airport, practicing her putting. It’s nearly 9 p.m., and most of the shops are now closed. But this golf-themed eatery is open; thank God, because it’s Omarosa’s favorite. The former White House aide and mononymous reality-TV villain is here four or five times a month, she tells me. It’s the best. She picked up golf as a teenager, when her mom enrolled her in a program for inner-city kids. “Anything to get us out of the projects,” she recalls. She got hooked. In fact, two years ago she met her husband, Baptist pastor John Allen Newman, through their charity work at a nonprofit that teaches kids how to play. (They shared…

“I NEVER KNEW I WOULD BE A DESIGNER,” Ralph Lauren insists. “I didn’t even know what a designer was, but I knew I had something inside of me that I wanted to express.” The particulars of his story are well-trod: The kid from the Bronx who started out making ties, and with no formal design training whatsoever, now has 11 fashion labels, 1,014 stores, four restaurants, a philanthropic foundation, and six Olympics’ worth of team uniforms to his name. (And he still makes ties, too.) It is, he acknowledges, a very American narrative, one that could have been spun by Horatio Alger. Not just the part where he summits the peaks of high fashion, but the part where he brings along with him the standbys that were once seen as…

Fashion is a powerful tool of communication. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve said that throughout my career. Never was that fact made clearer than when, during the preparation of this issue, Melania Trump was photographed in a jacket that read, “I really don’t care, do u?” In case for some reason you missed it, she wore the now-infamous statement piece on her way to visit immigrant children, and I, like so many, was stunned by the choice of attire. At ELLE, we really do care. To those who were inclined to say it was “just a jacket,” I return to my refrain. At any given moment, what we wear speaks volumes. And when considered in the context of our current culture, a jacket becomes so much more…

THE BAG The key to hanging on to your crown in the street-style Game of Thrones? Constant reinvention. The latest iteration of Louis Vuitton’s highly coveted (and frequently snapped) Petite Boite Chapeau bag features a vibrant floral inlay inspired by the Art Nouveau stained-glass windows at Monsieur Vuitton’s Asnières-sur-Seine home. Leather handbag, Louis Vuitton, $4,400, louisvuitton.com. THE BRACELET “I think your jewelry is the ’80s,” Andy Warhol once told Nicola Bulgari. Bold use of color, Gobstopper-size stones, and a generous dose of whimsy have been hallmarks of the brand since its inception. All three are on display in Bulgari’s latest high-jewelry collection, “Wild Pop.” Our favorite tribute to the decade of decadence: A microphone bracelet that nods to the 1981 debut of MTV. Onyx, aquamarine, tourmaline, peridot, rubellite, and pavé…

Emerging models are always on-the-go, and no one knows that better than fresh-to-the-scene faces Camille Ringoir, Ella Bales, and Zaina Gohou. Between go-sees, fashion shoots, and following their off-duty passions, each model knows the importance of armoring themselves with products that can move with them. No matter how busy a shoot day might get, or how many hours they spend working on their off-duty ambitions, TRESemmé Compressed Micro-Mist Hair Spray is the secret weapon that keeps them in motion all day long. Camille Ringoir Hometown: Aalst, Belgium Current coordinates: Manhattan, NY Fashion Week must: My phone Favorite model moment: My first shoot in New York. I couldn’t believe a girl from such a small town made it to one of the greatest cities in the world. Current passion: Ballet What…

The fashion industry has long been enraptured by “the French girl,” that Amélie sprite in chic Breton stripes. But lately, a new archetype is taking hold: the Danish girl. She’s equally fresh-faced, just a little more eccentric and a lot less bourgeois. Her style has a couple of hallmarks: voluminous shapes—often paired with New Balance sneakers—and a disinclination toward traditional “good taste.” (Read: She coats herself in Necco-wafer pastels and loud prints that could be considered tacky if they weren’t put together so nonchalantly.) It’s a look that’s gaining ground outside Scandinavia, too. Danish labels Ganni and Saks Potts both popped up at New York Fashion Week this season, to great fanfare. And Cecilie Bahnsen, a newer name known for ethereal dresses, will be stocked in select Nordstrom stores for…

Few motifs are as iconic as the clover, blossom, and LV monogram that embellish Louis Vuitton’s world-famous canvas and leather bags. Georges Vuitton introduced the emblems in 1896 in an effort to foil counterfeiters targeting the brand’s popular steamer trunks. The Empreinte (“imprint”) jewelry collection pays tribute to these symbols of the French house’s travel heritage. Indentations riff on the brass nailhead trim bordering those covetable trunks. This season, the range expands to white and yellow gold bangles and rings, with an optional dusting of pavé diamonds. Like their globe-trotting forebears, these pieces are destined to go the distance.…

MOST DRAMATIC RED LIPS SEEN AT: Brandon Maxwell, Dolce & Gabbana, Alexander McQueen THE LOOK: Matte crimson lipstick dials up the drama after hours. Makeup artist Tom Pecheux used M.A.C liquid lipstick at Brandon Maxwell and added a “thread of gold” just above the Cupid’s bow to create an illusion of fullness. Regardless of how you rock your ruby lip, radiant, even-toned skin is essential. And defined brows or supersize lashes help balance a bold mouth. DIY: The secret to lush lips is exfoliation and hydration, explains makeup pro Lucia Pieroni, who masterminded the ravishing red pouts at Alexander McQueen. Gently scrub your mouth with a textured face wipe and follow with a nongreasy balm. Next, use a pencil to draw just outside your natural lip line and fill in…

Melinda,* a 39-year-old New Yorker, just wanted the world to know she was happy. “I always had a thin upper lip,” she says. “It made me look much more stern and serious than I am, especially when my face was resting. I had to smile a lot just to compensate.” She got fillers for a couple of years but eventually grew dissatisfied with the results and the expense of the constant upkeep. “They made my lip heavy and started pulling it down, which made it even worse,” she says. So five months ago, Melinda joined the growing number of women taking a more drastic step to enhance their pout: She got a lip lift, a permanent surgical procedure. “The prettiest-looking lip augmentation improves the vertical height of the upper lip,”…

It seems, in some ways, that Cynthia Nixon entered the world a fully formed fighter. The actress, known the world over as Sex and the City’s career-driven Miranda Hobbes, Esq., has been working consistently since the age of 12. At 52, she is a Grammy, two-time Tony, and two-time Emmy Award winner. For years, she’s advocated for public education (her three children are all products of New York City public schools), LGBTQ rights (she married her wife, Christine Marinoni, in 2012), and women’s health care (her activism informed by her battle with breast cancer and her mother’s illegal abortion, before Roe v. Wade). Now she’s running for governor of New York against Andrew Cuomo—an incumbent with a family dynasty and a war chest topping $30 million. It’s a gutsy move.…

HANNAH FERGUSON Hometown: San Angelo, Texas Currently: New York City Career highlights: Appearing in V Magazine and ELLE, as well as walking in shows such as Marc Jacobs, Dolce & Gabbana, and Moschino with other supermodel icons! Trends I’m loving: High-waisted everything! I’m also obsessed with women in pantsuits. Trend I just don’t understand: The socks-with-sandals look! My happy place: Caribbean island–hopping, as well as getting back to my roots down in Texas. Travel tip: Airplane food is the worst, so I always pack my own healthy snacks for flights. It helps prevent bloating and feeling lethargic. My usual workout: Yoga, P.volve, and walking. Best part about being a model: I love all the people and exposure to life that I may not be able to experience otherwise. Worst part:…

CHANTILLY SAINT-PAUL DE VENCE…

Like dad sneakers and mom jeans, the grandma scarf is the latest in formerly uncool fashion to be reclaimed, uh, squarely for the cool crowd. Hermès, widely credited with making silk scarves trendy in the first place, now speaks to hypebeasts and street-wear aficionados with skateboards printed sumptuously in ladylike graphics. And Richard Quinn all but obliterated the accessory’s delicate associations (tied on bag handles or over an elaborate coiffure) by sending it down the runway in dramatic full-body, face-covering layers. (Though it’s hard to imagine Queen Elizabeth II, who graced Quinn’s front row, trying the over-the-top spin on her go-to Balmoral look—for more on that, see page 398.) But perhaps there was no greater reminder of the ubiquity of the classic style than at Marine Serre, where the buzzy…

1. Maggie Marilyn Barely into her twenties, this New Zealand–based talent nabbed a spot on the LVMH Prize shortlist thanks to her fearless ability to toy with volume and color. What’s not been so widely reported: her commitment to lessening her environmental impact by incorporating natural dyes, ethically produced silks, and polyester made from recycled plastic bottles. A Chanel show is always an unforgettable experience. But when the couturier transformed Paris’s Grand Palais into an actual forest, chopping down fully grown trees to serve as set pieces for its fall 2018 show, environmentalists were outraged. Chanel clarified that upon purchasing the oaks and poplars, it had agreed to plant 100 new ones in their place. But the dustup was a reminder that when it comes to doing better by our…

Freezer Burn Cryo centers outfitted with nitrogen-cooled cryotherapy chambers have been popping up across the country as more and more people willingly subject themselves to temperatures as low as-300°F. Popular with athletes, cryo was originally designed to reduce pain and inflammation following a workout, but some regular users have reported an anecdotal side effect: weight loss. (Here it’s worth noting that the FDA informally reviewed the medical literature and found no proof for cryo claims—weight loss or otherwise.) “I use cryo to supplement working out, and I’ve noticed that my body has built lean muscle mass and trimmed down quite quickly in the past month,” says account executive Lauren Connell, 24, who frequents Katy Trail Cryo (katytrailcryo.com) in Dallas. The idea that standing around in a deep freeze could trigger…

In her skylighted studio near downtown Los Angeles, between cigarette drags that flutter ashes onto her dark denim and work boots, Celeste Dupuy-Spencer talks about identity as it relates to her art. “I’m an American painter. I make paintings about America,” she says, prompting the questions: Which America? And whose? Vitally self-reflexive and saturated in color, Dupuy-Spencer’s figurative paintings and drawings capture the zeitgeist without sacrificing soul. Her work encompasses the full prism of her person: Caucasian. Queer (she identifies as nonbinary but uses feminine pronouns). A 38-year-old native of Rhinebeck, New York. An addict in recovery. A former landscaper. An atheist raised culturally Jewish. A country-music lover. The owner of a cat named The River. Together, these disparate elements inform a perspective with a searing sense of intimacy. Her…

DEAR E. JEAN: I’m thriving in NYC at a snazzy new job, and last night I returned from a week at our San Francisco office. Tired and jet-lagged, I ordered a bottle of bourbon from the local wine and spirits store. The delivery boy was hot—a wiry, tattooed bike messenger type with David Bowie cheekbones and green eyes. I reached for my handbag to tip him and discovered I had no cash. So I invited him in for some bourbon. I didn’t have sex with him, but we did a little of everything else, just like in high school. Which he no doubt remembers very well, since he is 24. I just turned 49. Dilemma 1: He just texted me and wants to see me again. Dilemma 2: I haven’t had…

Friendship, to EMMA STONE, “is pretty much everything.” Which is why the star and executive producer of Netflix’s Maniac—and face of Louis Vuitton’s new fragrance—requested that she be interviewed by her long time pal JENNIFER LAWRENCE (who calls her by her real name, Emily). The two got together in New York to discuss Emma’s NEW PROJECT, living life in the public eye, and turning the big 3-0. Come along as ELLE listens in. JENNIFER LAWRENCE: Okay, let’s get things started! Emily, you’re the best. Care to comment? EMMA STONE: Um, oh God. Uh, no comment. JL: Next: You’re so pretty. How’d you get like that? ES: [Laughs] What’s the Bridesmaids line you always say? JL: That you smell like pinecones and you look like Cinderella. Care to comment? ES: She…

I remember that cover well! Cindy [Crawford] wearing the flag sweater with jeans was so timeless and totally American,” recalls Ralph Lauren of the supermodel’s 1994 appearance in ELLE. “That cover is very representative of the authenticity and charm ELLE has always brought to my collections.” Over the years, Lauren has outfitted the ELLE woman for every situation imaginable, whether she’s conquering a boardroom in a double-breasted pinstripe suit or braving the waves. As he celebrates his fiftieth anniversary this month, Lauren has created not just a brand, but a world worth aspiring to—one that’s effortless, aspirational, and so very ELLE.…
