High-Society Bouffants Are Back—With a Subversive Twist - Vanity Fair

The so-called Svengali of the Silver Scissors had his finger on the pulse of high society, conjuring bouffants that acted like manicured hedges: beacons of elegance and reserve. Babe Paley, a Kenneth regular portrayed by Naomi Watts in FX’s Feud: Capote vs. The Swans, epitomized this lofty perfection. The production’s wig designer, Chris Clark, who also styled Watts, re-created that silhouette. A self-professed research nerd, he likes to use a period-style setting lotion while simulating the eff…

Serena Williams Reveals Her Beauty Rituals On and Off the Court - V...

The 10-piece line is both clean and comprehensive, ranging from a stay-put tubing mascara to a lip-and-cheek pigment to an SPF 30 skin tint offered in 36 shades. Every detail is finessed, down to the W embossed into the matte lipstick bullet—taken from a personal font Williams created years ago. To her, the brand’s chartreuse packaging is a symbol of ongoing evolution. “I didn’t like the word retirement,” she says of her 2022 departure from the game. Her tennis ball has simply bounced onto an Ul…

Emily Ratajkowski on Wearable Anthurium, Laura Ashley Bedding, and ...

What keeps New Yorkers spiritually afloat in this stretch are the flowers. Magnolias in voluptuous bloom on a neighborhood corner. Pioneering, semi-trampled daffodils in sidewalk gardens. Quince branches at the flower market. And, of course, those bottled up in the guise of perfume. As beauty companies angle to capitalize on a booming market, spring ushers in those bouquets too. Thus comes a fresh iteration of Viktor & Rolf’s Flowerbomb—named Tiger Lily after the speckled flame-orange bloom—with…

Rachel Zegler on 'West Side Story' Lipstick, 'Y2K' Butterfly Clips,...

With the Hollywood machine back in gear, Zegler the dog whisperer has returned to her day job. In Y2K—the directorial debut from SNL alum Kyle Mooney, which premiered this month at SXSW—Zegler slips into cusp-of-the-millennium fashion, playing the high school cool girl at a New Year’s Eve party where technology goes rogue. Spellbound, an upcoming animation with Zegler voicing the lead princess, is in post-production. More classical, more serene is her turn in the Rouge Dior campaign, set amid ma…

Kacey Musgraves Roots Down and Lights Up, With a New Album and a Ca...

A sense of anticipation runs twofold for the Grammy-decorated musician: Friday marks the arrival of Deeper Well, her sixth album, which both sees her relax into a newfound groundedness and threatens to knock it akilter. “I’m definitely savoring the last few moments of calm for a while,” she says. A show at the historic Ryman Auditorium is slated for release day. Tour dates in Europe pick up next month. The press machine churns. “I mean, it’s obvious that as you go into any launch period of anyth…

How Emma Stone Pulled Off Understated Glamour and a Big Win at the ...

Earlier on Sunday afternoon, a similar familial spirit ran through the hotel room where Stone was getting ready with hairstylist Mara Roszak, stylist Petra Flannery, and makeup artist Rachel Goodwin—a trusted triumvirate that has worked with the actor for some 17 years. “It’s such a joy,” Roszak said by phone after Stone departed for the red carpet. “I don’t know what I’ve done in this life to deserve such a collaborator, but it’s incredible. She really allows for so much creative freedom.” The…

Perfumes Inspired by Extreme Terrain Set the Scene for 'Dune: Part ...

“According to [Dune author] Frank Herbert, spice smells like cinnamon,” the film’s production designer, Patrice Vermette, says. The real-world locations Vermette scouted are just as evocative. In Abu Dhabi’s Liwa desert, blazing sun softened to fog at night, when “the level of humidity in the air made the smell of salt explode,” he says. By contrast, the plant life in Jordan’s Wadi Rum was surprisingly abundant but cleverly hidden by the Dune crew. One day, rain halted filming. “The water had no…

Sydney Sweeney on the Storytelling Potential of Hair, from 'Euphori...

Sydney Sweeney, a student of cult classics, remembers Long’s full-volume look in the 1989 movie. “My mom has similar hair—curly and big and beautiful and thick—and I grew up always wanting that hair,” the actor says, speaking in a video call from Los Angeles. An unwanted perm isn’t what gives Sweeney a case of salon-chair fright. “I’ve always been terrified of just cutting my hair super, super short, just because it takes so long to grow.” Perhaps a G.I. Jane–level transformation is not in the c…

Dua Lipa on the Makeup You Need For Her Anticipated “After-Hours Al...

These days, Lipa is particularly hard to miss. At this month’s Grammy Awards, she teased her upcoming album with a dance-heavy performance of the first two singles. For the BAFTAs, she traded Barbie pink (the color of her mermaid wig in Greta Gerwig’s blockbuster) for screen-star red—after all, Lipa is fresh off a turn in Matthew Vaughn’s spy romp, Argylle. Today, she makes another splashy appearance: half-submerged in water for her inaugural campaign as YSL Beauty’s global makeup ambassador. Th…

How Jeremy Allen White Got Ready for Another Big Win at the Emmys 2...

That visage and hair are the purview of KC Fee, the celebrity groomer who reconnected with White for The Bear’s season one premiere and has accompanied his wild ride ever since. Arguably there are similarities between the high-stress environment of a restaurant kitchen and the awards-season gauntlet. “This is something I’ve witnessed with all my clients: It’s an experience nobody knows unless they have to go through it,” Fee says. “There is a lot of wear and tear, and there’s a lot being asked o…

Inside Emily Blunt's Bombshell Transformation for the Critics Choic...

If Kitty has the force of an undetonated weapon, what Blunt unleashed at Sunday’s Critics Choice Awards 2024 was pure bombshell—red paillettes glowing like fire under the lights. “We were going for a modern twist on Old Hollywood,” stylist Jessica Paster says by phone, shortly after Blunt decamped for the carpet. (She joined her Oppenheimer cast members onstage to accept the award for best acting ensemble.) “The minute I saw that dress, I knew that I wanted it for Emily. I said, ’Please put it o…

Prada Beauty Is the Highbrow Swoon of the Season - Vanity Fair

Miuccia Prada likes to play the contrarian: a onetime communist presiding over a fashion conglomerate, a designer whose notion of sexy tips toward ugly chic. So it goes that a woman known for wearing little discernible makeup is launching exactly that, with Prada Beauty now making its Stateside debut. (The product line made an appearance on the Milan runway last September.) Is it by turns practical, eccentric, militaristic, and oriented for utmost care? Yes to all. The refillable eye palettes ar…

“She loves getting us all together and just kiki-ing and laughing,” says makeup artist Daniel Martin of the day’s red-carpet crew, which included stylist Tara Swennen and Clayton Hawkins on hair. Martin recalls first meeting the comedian through Opening Ceremony cofounders Carol Lim and Humberto Leon, during a pre-pandemic event for Wong’s 2019 book, Dear Girls. “We had so many mutual friends, so when we met, it was just [like finding] a lost sister. We totally clicked,” Martin says. For Sunday’…

How Da'Vine Joy Randolph Got Ready for a Triumphant Night at the .....

Randolph, a vocalist and Yale School of Drama alum, has continually made her mark across stage and screen. Her turn as the psychic Oda Mae Brown in Broadway’s Ghost earned her a Tony nomination in 2012; scene-stealing roles followed in film (Dolemite Is My Name, Rustin) and television (High Fidelity, Only Murders in the Building). What she brings to The Holdovers—Alexander Payne’s 1970 set piece about three lonely souls weathering the holiday break at a Massachusetts boarding school—hits at a qu…

Cline’s year is so far off to a strong start. This month she is back in her home state of South Carolina to shoot season four of Outer Banks, the hit Netflix series about treasure-hunting teens navigating love and perilous adventure. When the show premiered in the spring of 2020, shortly after lockdown, its cast of sun-kissed ingenues vaulted into the limelight. Nearly four years later, Cline’s evolution into a household name takes another big leap forward: Today, she becomes the newest ambassad…

How Emma Stone Got Ready for the New York Premiere of 'Poor ... - V...

Stone’s premiere look offered an early glimpse: all the polish you’d expect of a seasoned Oscar winner, with a glimmer of Bella’s idiosyncratic verve. That played out as a diaphanous yellow Louis Vuitton dress, a jeweled orchid worn on the neck with a Degas-style ribbon, raspberry lips and pearlescent eyes, and the actor’s back-to-red hair twisted into a deconstructed knot. It helps to have a creative team that has shepherded Stone throughout her career. “Since 2007—Superbad, her first film,” sa…

Gohar World and Palm Heights Debut a Resort Capsule Fit for ... - V...

Since Palm Heights opened in 2019, unfurling its marigold-yellow umbrellas along a slice of the island’s Seven Mile Beach, it has redefined the destination resort for a far-flung creative set. Early on, the 52 suites illustrated Khalil’s version of a warm welcome, with an assemblage of ’70s-leaning furniture culled from markets across Europe and North Africa and Mexico, plus a loaner set of vintage books. Newer facets of the property have continued that sensibility, the details impeccable in an…

It’s an intriguing preamble to Tóor-Tóor, Régime des Fleurs’ unconventional ode to tuberose, created in collaboration with master perfumer Dominique Ropion. “Like me, Alia is a perfectionist, and because she was a filmmaker, her brand is very visual,” Ropion explains via email, highlighting the founder’s multisensory approach. Plus, he adds, “Alia has always had a keenness for tuberose fragrances.” In fact, Raza arrived to their appointment in Paris wearing Carnal Flower, Ropion’s celebrated 200…

Hermès Beauty's New Eye Makeup Is an Object Lesson in Quiet ... - V...

To launch a makeup collection at the Invisible House, of course, invites contradiction. The home, designed by film producer Chris Hanley with architect Tomas Osinski, has an eye-catching way of receding from view. It stakes a claim in rugged nature while serving as a high-brow temple for selfies. The imposing rectilinear structure resembles a skyscraper reclined in odalisque pose—appropriate for a place that is ogled from the outside while allowing sly voyeurism from within. Its photogenic appea…
