EDITOR’S letter

If you have been lucky enough to retain your job and have transitioned to working from home, what’s that looking like for you? A particular form of torture I’m currently enjoying inflicting on myself is scrolling through Instagram and comparing stylish women’s perfect home offices (@cindycrawford; @aerin [Lauder] and @zoedegivenchy, et al) to my own desk, which has currently vanished under piles of crap. My #WFH scenario started out well enough. I thought that by styling my desk with the requisite Cire Trudon candles, Kelly Wearstler lamp, potted orchid, Hermès notebooks and lighting set to ‘rainy Sundays’, I’d be home and hosed. Well, it turns out none of that stuff helps when you clearly have a clutter problem. Half-eaten Haigh’s Easter eggs are stashed behind one laptop (I have three).…

ISOLATION NATION

“LONG WALKS in Sydney’s Centennial Park are helpful, and DANCING to my Spotify playlist — when no one’s watching. I do Yoga With Adriene: 30 Days of Yoga on YouTube. Another stress-buster: before dinner, my 25-year-old son and I watch Jeopardy! on Netflix, competing against each other. Food is a comforter. CHOCOLATE MOUSSE, Smith’s chicken chips, Anzac cookies and a cup of earl grey. AFTERNOON TEA has become a lifestyle.” – Kirstie Clements, features director “GARDENING AND PLANTING SEEDS for my winter-season vegetables is a reminder that seasons come and go, and this too shall pass. Watching Julia Ostro’s Instagram Stories also brings comfort. All that linen, HOME-BAKED BREAD and slow-cooked food is so soothing. I’ve also been rereading my cookbooks. Five pages of Maggie Beer discussing ways to cook…

ISOLATION NATION

COLLETTE DINNIGAN The Rome-based fashion designer was quick to pack up her family and quarantine in their Puglia farmhouse when news of COVID-19’s explosive impact in Italy started to circulate. Thinking she would only be holed up for a week or so, Dinnigan found herself unprepared for what would ensue. In this issue she details what life is like in the deserted tourist region where she is still under lockdown. While it’s a different Italy to the one she has known, the situation has enabled much-appreciated quality time with her family, as she describes on page 26. Italy is … “a country that has it all — the people, history, language, music, food, fashion, art, architecture and stunning landscapes”. A silver lining to the current crisis is … “a second…

Absence makes the heart grow fonder, and lockdown stokes wanderlust like nothing else. Certainly we all have a renewed appreciation for the great outdoors — and in Australia, ours is truly great. So in celebration of the botanic beauty that continues to inspire us, Dutch model Julia Van Os brings our floral fantasies to life in eye-popping modern prints and vivid colours we hope will brighten the days ahead. Embracing the new season’s strong nature theme, painterly blooms and embroidered foliage — some exotic, some nostalgically native — spark daydreams of a time when we can all come back together again.

my wish list ANISSA KERMICHE

LIFESTYLE ROSE UNIACKE is my favourite interior designer. My interiors must-haves are a COMFORTABLE BED and a great duvet, sheets and pillows, as bed is where we spend a third of our lives. STYLE I was rightfully nicknamed Snoopy because I mostly wear BLACK AND WHITE. I do tend to avoid prints, which I think don’t suit my face. I have quite STRONG FEATURES already and I feel I can’t wear makeup or anything too loud or I can look like I am going to prom. I used to wear a lot of VIVID COLOURS during my first years in London studying at Central Saint Martins, channelling the artist I thought I was, but I guess with age I transitioned towards a more DISCREET AND COMFORTABLE look. I mostly wear…

Stillness in time

“When news of Italy’s nationwide lockdown first circulated, my husband, Bradley, and son, Hunter, and I were with friends in Puglia after the schools had closed. [Dinnigan’s 15-year-old daughter, Estella, is at boarding school in Australia.] Hunter had been at ski week and had only been back at school a few days when I heard that coronavirus was hitting Italy hard, and I said to Bradley, “I bet they’ll close the schools.” As soon as they did, I wanted all of us to sit it out in our farmhouse, Casa Olivetta, in Puglia. We jumped in the car (I was such a nervous Nellie, I didn’t want to be on a plane) and we drove there immediately. It was the 28th of February. We only prepared ourselves to be here…

FACING THE FACTS

Harper’s BAZAAR: What is the first point you would like to make about COVID-19? ILMA KHAN: “How serious it is to be on a ventilator. It is not just like a normal oxygen mask to help with breathing. Being intubated means you undergo a general anaesthetic and remain sedated. Then a breathing tube is inserted into your windpipe and you are hooked up to a ventilator, which is a life-support machine. It is a big deal. I was thinking about how scary it must be for the patient to see this big mask, where the last thing you see is only the eyes — it must be very confronting.” HB: What makes COVID-19 different to any other epidemic or pandemic? IK: “We are still getting to know this virus. That…

ACCIDENTALLY RETIRED

The call came out of the blue. It was early March and I was having breakfast with friends at a gorgeous lodge between Gundagai and Tumut, in Kosciuszko National Park. We were to attend a wedding later that day; people had flown in from around the world to be there, and we were all sitting around discussing what we were going to wear when my phone rang. It was the New South Wales Department of Health. “Can you find somewhere private to have this chat?” asked a very serious nurse on the other end. “You were on Flight 833 from Melbourne to Sydney last week, weren’t you? You have been identified as having sat within two rows of someone who tested positive for COVID-19 and you must put on a…

THE COLLAR COLLECTIVE Whether your vibe is a ’70s point, overblown Peter Pan, Victorian lace or prim prairie, a supersized collar is the quickest way to transition your wardrobe into A/W 2020. TOO GOOD Creative polymath Faye Toogood has teamed up with English pottery company 1882 on a ceramic tableware collection that’s sure to lift the winter blues. matchesfashion.com Why don’t you? As the Frame boys add a trans-seasonal shoe collection to their lifestyle offering, we chat to co-founder Erik Torstensson as he unpacks his latest life hacks SHOP Auctionet (auctionet.com).

It’s a Friday morning in London, a week or so before Boris Johnson’s government locks down the city amid the coronavirus pandemic. Like many businesses, Neous has already rolled out a working-from-home policy. “It’s been one thing after another,” reflects Neous’s founder and creative director, Vanissa Antonious on WhatsApp. “I think it’s global karma.” The former BAZAAR Australia stylist is speaking from her new leafy Stoke Newington apartment, having moved back to London from Berlin in February. “There’s so much talk that this is what the industry needed,” she says of the global lockdown’s impact on fashion’s peripatetic show cycle, “to make everyone realise that, actually, you don’t need to travel so much.” Antonious is in the somewhat fortunate position of having already sold her pre and main A/W 2020…

Dewy skin, the waxy surface of a new car, a flawless patisserie glaze ... the appeal of a glossy surface is universal. For some, such as in Yolngu culture in Arnhem Land, the inner brilliance of lustrous materials holds spiritual resonance. For fetishists, the use of latex and rubber as a ‘second skin’ for the wearer becomes a kinky stand-in for the real thing; its tightness a kind of bondage in itself. In evolutionary theory, it’s suggested that the innate human preference for glossier finishes stems from a need for water. And for A/W 2020, the thirst is real. Though most designers could agree on the proliferation of glossy materials — PVC, rubber, latex, patent finishes — each manifested as entirely different characters. There were hints of Trinity from The…

CARRIE-ANNE MOSS AS TRINITY (1), The Matrix, 1999. The film has influenced designers since John Galliano sent his PVC trenches down the haute couture runway for Christian Dior A/W 1999, just after the film hit cinemas. AUDREY HEPBURN AS JOANNA WALLACE (2), Two For the Road, 1967. Hepburn as you’ve never seen her, in a shiny black PVC trouser suit designed by Paco Rabanne. CATHERINE DENEUVE AS SÉVERINE SERIZY (3), Belle de Jour, 1967. Deneuve switches between housewife and escort in a patent black Yves Saint Laurent trench. PATRICIA LAFFAN AS NYAH (4), Devil Girl from Mars, 1954. Though the sci-fi is good for little more than a giggle, our titular heroine’s black patent cape and minidress combo is worth the 77 minutes alone. ANA DE ARMAS AS JOI (5),…

THE TIME IS NOW

“FASHION SHOULD ALWAYS BE A SIGN OF THE TIMES, and there’s been a gentle shift for a few years and then, all of a sudden, we are forced into this …” begins Esse Studios designer Charlotte Hicks across a patchy Skype connection from her studio in Paddington, Sydney. “I think what will come out of this [coronavirus crisis] is a far leaner perspective.” For Hicks, that leaner perspective is actually a welcome fit. After working in the design rooms of many of Australia’s most successful fashion brands — Zimmermann and sass & bide included — in 2017 she launched Esse Studios (pronounced ‘essay’, named after the notion of essentials). The label produces two capsule collections, or Editions, a year, each designed to go with the last. “It plays into this…

THE TIME IS NOW

MY LIFE, MY STYLE

Every picture tells a story at the Shepherd’s Bush, London, house where stylist Bay Garnett lives with her partner, UK BAZAAR contributing photographer Tom Craig, their children and two dogs — Paddy, a beautiful but shy bosnian mountain dog rescue pup, and a lurcher called Smudge. In the rustic kitchen, with its pale-pink paint, french doors to the garden, cream Aga and long oak dining table, the walls are covered in a varied mix of prints and sketches. At one end hangs a large photograph of the model Stella Tennant in Damascus, styled by Garnett and shot by Craig for a magazine fashion spread. “That was just before the war broke out,” Garnett says, sadly. Known for creating cinematic images in far-flung destinations from Syria to Cuba, Garnett has once…

MY LIFE, MY STYLE

It’s a chilly December evening inside Paris’s Grand Palais (1 degree Celcius, to be precise), and despite the historic Beaux-Arts venue being transformed into a series of salons fitted out to replicate Gabrielle Chanel’s apartment, its immense scale and soaring conservatory-style glass ceiling causes French actor/singer Vanessa Paradis to shiver and pull her shawl tighter over her short-sleeved dress and bare arms. “Everyone is so much more ecologically conscious today and intent on reducing waste,” Paradis muses, leaning back on a sumptuous gold-beige suede couch that’s a carbon copy of the original from the second-floor rue Cambon digs. “Isn’t a collection like this the definition of true sustainability? Chanel’s Métiers d’art collections showcase the work of the ateliers and their artisanship — this isn’t mass production. You should feel lucky…

GROUNDED IN GOTHAM

THE CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS IS ON PAUSE. Shops are closed, streets are empty and storefronts are boarded up. From our windows in Brooklyn, my boyfriend, Matt, and I can see that traffic on Williamsburg Bridge is all but nonexistent. Cars on FDR Drive have large gaps between them and the number of people going on their daily walk, run or bike ride in East River Park has dwindled. It is quiet. These subtle changes are both a relief and an unsettling reminder of the time we are living in. On one hand, people are respecting the new lockdown rules. On the other, it is a visual representation of the disruption to daily life we are all experiencing. There is undoubtedly fear, concern and uncertainty. With the news delivering constant…

GROUNDED IN GOTHAM

It’s 11.45am on day two of Milan fashion week and British actor Gemma Chan is perched on a grey velvet couch inside the city’s Park Hyatt hotel, her all-white Max Mara palazzo-pants-and-silk-shirt outfit looking like something her old-moneyed Singaporean Crazy Rich Asians character, Astrid Leong-Teo, would give the tick of approval. Chan has just arrived from the nearby Palazzo del Senato, where she sat front row at Max Mara’s A/W 2020 show, a privilege that comes with having just been announced as the 15th recipient of the Women In Film Max Mara Face of the Future Award. “This is actually my first Milan fashion week,” she admits. “I loved this collection. There were great twists on iconic classics — anything that had a hood, I loved. It comes from living…

Using the letters of the LV monogram as architectural building blocks, Francesca Amfitheatrof, Louis Vuitton’s artistic director of watches and jewellery, has created a range that captures the brand’s modern, innovative spirit. Designed to illustrate movement and speed, the collection offers an array of prismatic chain-mail styles and chic, stackable rings.…

MS BRIGHTSIDE After several seasons of neutral tones, colour is finally back in our beauty bags in a big way. The simplest entry point? Opting for neon tones on the eyes. It might conjure lurid ’80s flashbacks for some, but this is one trend that can be truly sophisticated when executed correctly. It was all over the runways at the A/W 2020 shows, with Off-White, Matty Bovan and Self-Portrait showcasing various doses of neon brights on the eyes. For the uninitiated, start by switching to a blue liner or mascara, or amp things up with shocking shades of magenta or buttercup yellow on the eyes. There’s never been a better time to experiment. KEY INGREDIENTS We’re demanding more from our beauty products than ever before: we’re no longer satisfied with…

Why is it that however many new grey hairs sprout from our hairlines, we never seem to be any the wiser about how to manage them? As a beauty editor I, possibly more than most, can adopt some level of agency over how my skin ages, choosing whether to leave it to Mother Nature or the latest celebrity dermatologist. But when it comes to going grey, I will admit to a touch of confusion. In my early forties and confronted with my first silver streaks, knowing that by the age of 50 one in two of us will have half a head of grey hair, I find myself wondering how easy it is for anyone to grow older gracefully. One friend exhausted with the constant maintenance involved in covering up…

A designer jawline is the beauty industry’s new cosmetic preoccupation. But unless you’re already harbouring an established insecurity, it might be the first time you’ve even considered the area to be part of the aesthetic equation. Yet, as we’re starting to discover, an expertly enhanced jawline can add softness or definition to the face, leading to a more youthful appearance overall. And just as it was with pillowy pouts in recent years, this is a case of life imitating social media. In fact, your filter might even be doing it for you, with some of the ‘beauty filters’ virtually and almost imperceptibly slimming the outlines of the face (Instagram, for one, recently banned effects that mimic cosmetic surgery, in the interests of youth mental health.) “Social media is largely accountable…

As a vivid reimagining of the house’s earliest recorded fragrance, Louis Vuitton Heures d’Absence eau de parfum, $420 (100ml), was always going to be special. The original formulation had been lost since the scent was discontinued in the 1930s, leaving perfumer Jacques Cavallier Belletrud to reinvent the recipe. The result is a jaunty bouquet of iconic Grasse florals, including rose de Mai, jasmine and mimosa. Summer spritz not matching your mood in the cooler months? The new Paco Rabanne Olympéa Onyx eau de parfum, $164 (80ml), is seemingly engineered for winter, with a sensual blend of cashmere wood, ginger flower, water jasmine and salty vanilla conjuring all the cold weather feels. Then there’s the blush-ombré-and-onyx bottle, which practically shoots itself for social media. Rose fragrance transcends the old-school connotations with…

1. TRY SOMETHING NEW Working out at home can be an easy, intimidation-free way to gauge whether an exercise is right for you. Any smart program will be adaptable for all fitness levels, notes personal trainer Julie Wandzilak. Maybe you want to indulge your inner ballerina, or perhaps jiu-jitsu feels more your speed. Whatever you’ve considered in the past, sign up online and give it a go. If you feel self-conscious, consider checking out the studio’s social media first; it will give you a sense of how classes are run. But don’t stress too much — taking a breather in the privacy of your lounge room eliminates any perceived personal humiliation. 2. WALK THIS WAY Rather than having his A-list clients struggle through a tough session straight away, celebrity trainer…

TREAT TIME No matter how dedicated we are to our skincare regimen, our neck and décolletage are often neglected. And while it’s true that any moisturiser we apply to our face can be extended to these areas, the thinner skin on the neck can benefit from richer formulas. Clarins’s scientists have formulated an elastin-boosting lotion with plant extracts, including sunflower auxins and kangaroo flower, that works to firm and repair this tired-looking skin. HIT THE BAR If you haven’t picked up a bar of soap in a while, there’s something about this good old-fashioned cleanse that is so appealing. The ritual of lathering up is nostalgic for most of us, and it’s a sustainable choice as well. For a bar that leaves your skin gently scented, we love Diptyque Do…

NOT-SO-HAPPY HOUR

No sooner had the COVID-19 isolation period started than the advertising began. While we were all checking social media for vital updates on the virus, a number of bottle shops and home-delivery services decided we could all do with a stiff drink or 10. The promotional messaging came thick and fast through Twitter and emails: how best to meet the stress of possibly losing your job, a roof over your head and your freedom of movement? Litres of alcohol that can be delivered within 30 minutes. It was amusing at first when Instagram became awash with enticing photos of cocktails that bars and restaurants could send to your door. Then there was the invention of the quarantini, which began as a tongue-in-cheek martini made with gin and rimmed with Emergen-C,…

CALM IN A CRISIS

BACK IN THE PRE-PANDEMIC ERA, I moved through life pretty quickly. Like many women, I often felt distracted and overwhelmed by the various responsibilities and roles that I took on willingly, but not wittingly. The recognition of my predicament, and those of so many double-booked, depleted women around me, prompted me to write a book on mindfulness for women, called The Gift of Presence: A Mindfulness Guide for Women. Of course, I’m not clairvoyant. I couldn’t have imagined that the ideas of the book would become so timely given the pandemic we’re now facing, the magnitude of which humanity has never experienced. In the three years it took me to write the book, I scurried to meet my deadlines while also caring for my father, who was spending the last…

CALM IN A CRISIS

COUPLES’ THERAPY

RIGHT NOW, I am sitting in my office (aka bedroom), dressed in my work clothes (aka pyjamas), ruminating on a fight I just had with my husband about coconut butter. This is already an obnoxious thing to bicker about: luxury health foods. He observed (aloud) that I had not picked any up from the supermarket following his text message (sent from the backyard) yesterday. I responded (passive aggressively) that he might be able to find some at the wholefoods grocery shop around the corner (see what I did there?) from our house. And so it went on for 10 minutes (with wide-eyed children watching), until I left for work, which used to involve a nice dress, a few coats of mascara and a 20-minute bus ride … and now consists…

COUPLES’ THERAPY

UNLOCKING US WITH BRENÉ BROWN For an introspective focus on what drives us to connect, Dr Brené Brown is worth a listen. She’s a researcher, author and speaker who spent the past 20 years studying the emotions and experiences that bring meaning and purpose to our lives (her words). In a nutshell: she’s a master at drilling down on what makes us tick and how we can come undone as a result. As a taster, tune into her Netflix special. Although, a word of warning: I forced my husband to watch it with me and we both spent the entire time making meaningful eyes at each other that said, ‘This completely applies to you and I hope you’re taking this onboard.’ So maybe watch it alone … just saying. WHERE…

Why don’t you … View Hollywood from a different perspective? When Laura Harrier was in her final year of drama school — a time when most actors are cutting their teeth as extras or making indie films with friends — she was cast in an HBO drama helmed by Steve McQueen, whose film 12 Years a Slave had just won the Oscar for Best Picture. “It was pretty surreal,” Harrier says of working with the renowned writer and director. “I learnt so much, it was like years of school just within a couple months of shooting.” While Codes of Conduct wasn’t picked up for a full season, Harrier says she felt “so blessed and lucky for that to be my first [major television] experience”. After that, she was hooked: the…

Why don’t you … Dip a toe into the oeuvre of one of our most celebrated artists? A new book collates 40-plus important works by late Australian painter Emily Kame Kngwarreye. But it’s just a drop in the ocean. It’s estimated the prolific artist created more than 3000 paintings during her relatively short eight-year career, some of which have appeared in the Venice Biennale and London’s Tate Gallery. Be wary: an obsession may ensue. Mini Monographs: Emily Kame Kngwarreye, by series editor Natalie King (Thames & Hudson), $30, is out in August.…

Why don’t you … Bliss out to this brother-sister duo’s hypnotic tunes? WITH SIX YEARS BETWEEN THEM, Josh and Amy Dowdle might have fallen into an annoying-big-brother/pesky-younger-sister relationship. But they’ve managed to avoid that dynamic entirely: not only do they write music together, which they travel the globe performing, but they also have a knack of finishing each other’s sentences. The Dowdles, who perform together as Lastlings, may be in sync now, but their respective journeys towards a life of music were completely different. Amy, now 20, started playing classical piano when she was six, continuing throughout her time at primary and high school, and started singing and writing lyrics at the age of 11. Josh, on the other hand, “quit most things I tried”, until he came across an…

BHUTAN is the world’s last surviving Buddhist kingdom, positioned in a lush region of the Himalayas between India, China and the Tibetan plateau. Due to its geographical remoteness and a frankly genius ‘high value, low impact’ visa policy that limits tourism, it has remained largely unaltered and unspoiled. Seventy-one per cent of the country is covered by fragrant forest. There are no traffic lights, no multistorey buildings and no malls. The air is crisp, the rivers clean, the ground softly cushioned by pine needles. There are leopards in the snowcapped hills and black-necked cranes glide in formation over the valleys. If there is a modern-day Shangri-la, Bhutan may be it. My 10-day visit — and appreciation of Bhutan — unfurls slowly, coming to an end just prior to the borders…

Haper’s BAZAAR COLLECTION

“ I hate the idea of diamonds languishing unloved in a safe,” says the New Zealand-born jewellery designer Jessica McCormack when we meet her at her home in northwest London. “I always ask people, How can you keep them locked away like little prisoners?’” Beloved for her ability to put a more wearable slant on forgotten pieces, as well as for her own antique-inspired creations that have a modern twist, McCormack has redefined how women think about fine jewellery. “I make designs that fit a modern wardrobe and can be worn on the school run, at a board meeting or to a black-tie dinner,” she says. “You want them to live a life with you.” McCormack, whose father was an art and antiques dealer and auctioneer, grew up in Christchurch,…

WOMAN OF INFLUENCE INGRID WEIR

While for most children, tagging along with their parents to the office might mean being relegated to a corner with some highlighters or photocopying their hands, for Ingrid Weir, joining her father, the iconic movie director Peter Weir, AM, at work meant filling in as an extra on set. “I was an Amish girl in Witness walking across a field,” recalls Ingrid, who would have been 12 when the Harrison Ford-fronted film was released. The bright-eyed young Ingrid revelled in the “circus-like energy” of film sets. Her father was a pioneer of the local industry (his most notable work is perhaps the dreamy 1975 production of Picnic at Hanging Rock, along with 1981’s Gallipoli, among several other iconic Australian movies), and he went on to direct a number of international…

“I like to be asked about the books I’m reading, the things I’m interested in, what’s exciting me right now, or even politics.”– EMILY RATAJKOWSKI, model, actor and Gemini GEMINI May 21–June 20 June: You’re the go-to gal for insights in your crew, but might be so preoccupied that you fail to notice a setback with someone close. Eclipses focus on home and money now, so look at who might be taking whom for granted. July: Friendships get busy with Mars encouraging less talk, more action.
