Every now and then a chance meeting or moment forces you to stop, think and take stock. I experienced just that – along with a few members of the marie claire team – when petite, bubbly Layla Hooper walked into Sydney’s Sun Studios to be photographed for this month’s campaign, “Join The Fight” (on page 80). At just 17, Layla was cruelly diagnosed with stage three ovarian cancer. She bravely battled years of surgery, chemo and radiation before discovering earlier this year her condition was terminal. To give her something to look forward to, her devoted mum, Sallyann, set…

THE CULT OF AQUAZZURA

You don’t set out to design an ‘It’ shoe,” says Edgardo Osorio, the Florencebased Columbian charmer behind the Aquazzura brand. “It just happens.” Perhaps, but only given the right mix of talent and connections. Last year, Osorio’s Wild Thing sandals (top left inset) caused a fashion frenzy. These fringed suede creations were all over magazines and social media, on the feet of models, editors and the designer’s friends – everywhere, it seemed, except the shops. You couldn’t get a red pair for love or money. “It was the fastest-selling shoe on Net-a-Porter,” says Osorio, “we still can’t produce enough.” His golden touch did not stop there. Right now, Instagram is full of his Pompom raffia sandals, and their Disco incarnation with sequins (below right). In London, Harrods has dedicated an…

THE FINER details

CHANEL The house’s eveningwear (also pictured opposite) was inspired by the inky decadence of Art Nouveau illustrator Aubrey Beardsley. So hand-loomed tweeds, froths of feathered chiffon, organza and feathers were edged with dark radzimir, grosgrain and textural crystal embroidery. “The craftsmanship today is better than ever,” said Karl Lagerfeld, who granted us a rare insight into the couture process by featuring his atelier – complete with seamstresses – at the Grand Palais. VIKTOR & ROLF The ragamuffin ruffles at Viktor & Rolf weren’t just charming, they were drenched with meaning, pointing – via silhouette – to the raw materials of these very clever clothes. For while the end results were deeply precious, the fabrics and trims were all upcycled: remnants, cast-offs, and unwanted odds and ends from the designers’ previous…

THE NEW HUNTING GROUND THE RISE OF DIGITAL DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

Kristy Wood* disliked the doll the moment she saw her two-yearold daughter holding it. The life-like toy pulled faces, made babbling noises and had big, creepy eyes that opened and closed, and had been designed for young girls wanting to play at being mothers. The $29 “nurturing doll” was dressed in a pink beanie and striped pants. Wood, 31, a librarian in Brisbane, recalls taking an aversion to the doll, after her former partner insisted their daughter take it home after an access visit. “He said that she shouldn’t go anywhere without it, even though Annie didn’t really like the doll,” she says. “He was quite insistent.” At the time, Wood and her daughter were living in a Brisbane women’s shelter. She had fled her partner after three years of…

STARS, STRIPES AND SELFES TRUMP’S CRAZY CAMPAIGN TO WOO WOMEN

On a warm summer day in Cleveland, Ohio, a pair of middle-aged African-American women are holding a crowd in their thrall. As their voices ring out across a lush green park, their patter, a wellrehearsed rhythmic call-and-response performance, is focused on a man they adore – Donald Trump. “Vote for Trump the businessman, he’s the one with the master plan!’’ The crowd, mostly older white men waving “Hillary for Prison” T-shirts, is hooting and hollering their approval. “The more people throw hate, the more you need to ed-u-cate!” And education is what these two women are focused on. That is: passionately educating voters on why they should help elect a real estate magnate turned reality star turned political firebrand to the White House. They go by the nom de YouTube…

STARS, STRIPES AND SELFES TRUMP’S CRAZY CAMPAIGN TO WOO WOMEN

DELTA GOODREM Singer, 31 “As a cancer survivor, I know that hearing the word cancer when you’re diagnosed is a life-changing moment. It’s a very personal battle, and something you wouldn’t wish on your worst enemy. But every time we focus on a specific illness, like ovarian cancer, then we can educate people more about it so they can be aware of what to look for. The key is research, so we can be preventative rather than having to fight it after the fact.” JESSICA GOMES Model, 29 “My mum and my sister are both nurses, so I’ve always heard stories about how lives are torn apart by cancer. The fundamental thing people need to know about ovarian cancer is that if you detect it early, you can save lives.…

My week of living DANISHLY

Hygge. Like much of Danish, the word doesn’t sound anything like it looks. Say Hugh. Pronounce a strong G at the end (as in Grant, without the, er, rant). There, you’ve got it. Hygge. The most important word in the Danish language. I first heard that distinct, guttural sound on a cobblestone backstreet in Copenhagen, wrapped up in a scarf the size of a small child and drinking hot chocolate. (All things that are very hygge, although I didn’t know it at the time.) I was on a free walking tour of the Danish capital because I was at the tail end of a Scandinavian holiday that had rendered me stark raving skint. There was an expat Brit leading the tour and in whispered tones – this wasn’t his first…

FRANKLY SPEAKING WITH GLORIA STEINEM

Formative feminism JACKIE FRANK: Let’s start at the beginning. You grew up in Toledo, Ohio, where your family was often on the move, and your new book is called My Life On The Road. Do you think travel is in your blood? GLORIA STEINEM: I grew up in a trailer until I was 10 because my father was a gypsy [he sold antiques]. We were in the same place in the summer because he had a little resort, but the rest the year we’d travel the country. So it’s true that what we see in our childhood feels familiar and normal. “The philosophy of Playboy is that a woman must never win” JF: In your college years you said you confused “growing up” with “settling down”, and thought you wanted to get…

‘MY WIFE AND I ARE BOTH Pregnant’

At 1.47am on December 9, 2015, Emily Kehe delivered a 3.6kg baby boy named Reid. Three days later, she found herself back at New York Presbyterian hospital – but this time it was her wife, Kate Elazegui, giving birth to their 2.3kg son, Eddie. Here, they share their incredible journey to motherhood. Kate: Soon after our marriage [when I was 40 and Emily was 36], we began looking into fertility clinics. I remember our frst consultation clearly. We went in and I declared, “Isn’t this great? We have two of everything! Two vaginas! Two uteruses!” I was joking, but [the fertility specialist Dr Hey Joo Kang] was very, very serious. She just looked at us and asked how old we were. Emily: Selecting the [sperm] donor was fun, like online…

‘MY WIFE AND I ARE BOTH Pregnant’

Sitting at a wooden table at a country-chic hotel in upstate New York where she knows all the staff (“Can I take this honey butter home?” she asks the waiter), Blake Lively is talking about the number-one thing in her life: “All my eggs are in one basket, and that’s my family. That’s where my heart is. That’s where my everything is.” Her tousled hair cascades past the shoulders of her white sweater, and there’s a rip in the knee of her faded blue jeans. Her family, of course, is husband Ryan Reynolds and their 21-month-old daughter, James, “who looked like his doppelgänger for the first six months”, but now, she says, has finally picked up some of her features, namely, “she has my clammy hands!” Lively, 29, wails. “And…

INSIDE THE WORLD’S MOST VIP SEX CLUB

It’s just past midnight in a private mansion off Mulholland Drive in Los Angeles when I watch my first Minotaur get a blowjob. In a room dubbed the “Petting Zoo’’, the tattooed stud – sporting a teeny-tiny loincloth and bulbous bullhorns – is on the receiving end of languorous oral sex. Minutes later the half-man/half-beast hooks up with another partygoer and the unlikely pair are soon pounding away atop a padded ottoman, giggling gleefully at one another as onlookers gawk. While esoteric, the Minotaur fellatio scene is not the most jaw-dropping of the voyeuristic sights I will feast my virgin eyes on at this “Soirée”. On entry to this exclusive party I am greeted by two female performers pleasuring each other seductively in the main room. Then, I watch another…

INSIDE THE WORLD’S MOST VIP SEX CLUB

AUSTRALIA KID, INTERRUPTED More than half a million Australian children suffer from mental illness, but many are too scared to speak out. This month, a powerful book places youth mental health in the spotlight In Mel Tregonning’s debut picture book, Small Things, a young boy faces up to his inner demons. These demons are the monsters living in his shadow, who thrive off anxieties and insecurities. They multiply when he receives a bad mark, when he is excluded from games and when he feels alone, until one night he lies curled up in his bed, almost engulfed in darkness. It is not until his older sister reaches out to him and reveals that she, too, has her own inner demons, and that it’s about learning how to manage them, that he…

GIRL OF THE MOMENT

When Ella Purnell was a budding actress she had an unlikely pin-up tacked to her bedroom wall. It was Tim Burton, the cult director, who she adored not because of a schoolgirl crush but as someone she hoped to work with. In 2014, she took the poster down because she had just booked the biggest job of her career as the lead in the fantasy epic Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children. The director? Tim Burton. “This is kinda weird now I’ve met him,” recalls Purnell, laughing. Previously, the actress was known for playing younger versions of megastars like Angelina Jolie (Maleficent) and Margot Robbie (The Legend Of Tarzan). But in Miss Peregrine’s she is the genuine, bona fide lead. On set, Purnell would workshop her lines with the auteur.…

GIRL OF THE MOMENT

Looking for the next Offspring to add to your weekly rom-com roster? Enter Zoë Foster-Blake. The author’s fourth novel The Wrong Girl – about TV producer Lily (Jess Marais), her BFF Simone (The Dressmaker starlet Hayley Magnus, see breakout box, right) and their various misadventures – is about to become your new favourite TV show. It has a little bit of everything: the requisite amount of bedhopping, quarter-life crises and career drama. “It’s the book, only bigger. It’s the book on about 20 Red Bulls,” jokes Foster-Blake. At its heart, it’s about what it means to be dynamic, fallible, messy women, just trying to make it in the world of Tinder and Snapchat. “That’s the one thing I’m super proud of,” says Foster-Blake. “It’s an incredibly strong female narrative. Of…

She lists a heart choker made of resin with a lock of her daughter’s hair, the Policromia timepieces she made in collaboration with Fendi, lots of big coral pieces and a pair of Erté brooches. The daughter of Silvia Fendi burst on to the high jewellery scene in 2007 with bejewelled Dalí-esque fantasies that have become her signature: pearls that seem to foat in midair as if in a dream, discombobulated lips, trippy eyes. “I was inspired by the tradition of the lover’s eye,” she…

1 THE FIVE-MINUTE CHIC FIX Kenneth Stoddart is a veteran of shoots and shows, so the Priceline Pharmacy hair director knows a thing or two about quick-fix hair: “Pulling the hair back off the face and into a knot is a really fast way to add some style. Start with texturising spray, then rake the hair back with your fingers and secure just above ears at the back of the head. Loop your ponytail and only pull three-quarters of it back through the elastic, leaving the ends peeking out. Pin the loop down to create a knot.” 2 GET BOBBED If you want to go for a bigger change, Stoddart votes the textured natural bob with balayage as the cut-and-colour combo of the season: “I’m loving the shorter bob trend…

However, in October, Kiehl’s will change all that with the launch of its Apothecary Preparations range. “Our customers were looking for something that was really specific to them,” says Cammie Cannella, vicepresident of Kiehl’s global education and customer experience. “A lot of our serums are targeted to specific concerns, but more and more we were hearing customers say ‘Oh, but I have two things, like dull skin and wrinkles’, so we’re offering something personalised in one product.” For Kiehl’s, it’s also a nod to its apothecary history – the brand customcreated formulas for its clients until the 1960s. The new service will be available at Kiehl’s stores. Your skin is analysed using the “Skin Atlas” and then,…

How you apply foundation can make the difference between a flawless complexion at 5pm or a smudgy mess. “Hands and faces can get a bit sweaty in warm weather, and fingers can feel sticky and spread bacteria onto the skin,” says make-up artist Napoleon Perdis, so pick up a sponge or brush and get buffing. Try TBX Complexion Blender Sponge (right), $19.95, or YSL Pinceau Y-Brush (far right), $79 (the Y-shaped well holds just enough liquid foundation for a natural result). “Your spring base should enhance your natural skin, not mask it” – Napoleon Perdis KNOW THYSELF Establish what your skin type is, so you can determine what it needs DEHYDRATED “If skin looks and feels dry, a luminous or liquid foundation will counteract dryness and refresh…

MAKE YOUR FRAGRANCE last longer

KNOW YOUR EAU Eau de parfums (EDPs) have a stronger concentration of oil than their EDT (eau de toilette) counterparts. EDPs tend to last one to two hours longer than EDTs. WHERE TO WEAR We all know that pulse points are ideal for fragrance, but also try the back of your neck, elbow and knee creases, as they heat with movement which draws out the scent. Or, if you dare go lower, wearing it on the ribs and stomach because as body heat rises so will your fragrance. IT’S IN THE HAIR Fragrance can attach to fbres (which explains why we like wearing our partner’s jumpers so much), so your hair will naturally hold scent. However, to avoid the alcohol in perfume drying your hair, spritz on a brush and…

Take a look at the space around you and there’s every chance you’ll see stacks of paperwork you’ve been “meaning to get around to”, piles of clothes you “need to go through” and hundreds of emails you’re “going to delete”. The situation may be frustrating, but you’re certainly not alone. According to a study conducted by independent think tank The Australia Institute (tai. org.au), 88 per cent of Australian homes have at least one room that’s overrun with clutter* – a habit that’s having a negative impact on our ability to focus, process information and de-stress at the end of the day. Marie Kondo, Japanese decluttering guru and author of smash hit The Life-Changing Magic Of Tidying Up (tidyingup.com), doesn’t mince words, writing in her second instalment, Spark Joy: “Life…

PROBLEM: YOU CAN’T RUN Want to run, but believe running and you go together like custard and Cheezels? Change the channel on your inner story. “I’m a firm believer that anyone can run and most people underestimate their abilities,” says coach Mike O’Sullivan of Out and Back Training in Perth. “Building up to run five or 10 kilometres may take time, but be patient. If running alone, start by breaking up sessions – run for a minute, walk for 30 seconds and so on. Gradually increase your running time and decrease the walking time.” PROBLEM: YOU WANT A PB Most seasoned runners strive to notch up a new “personal best” time. But just how to improve your speed is the question. Jordan Ponder of Transform Health (transformhealth.com.au) recommends two of…

THE NEW RULES OF SUCCESS

1 Old: Work hard by putting in the hours New: Work smarter by stepping up Hard work never hurt anybody (except for those who regularly worked 10+ hours a day and ended up burnt out). Waiting for your efforts to be noticed is futile. Instead, women need to put themselves in roles where they are front and centre, even if they feel out of their comfort zone. “Speak up, step forward, contribute, volunteer; these are all key attributes you will need if you want to get noticed,” say authors Fiona Elsa Dent and Viki Holton in their new book, How To Thrive And Survive As A Working Woman (Bloomsbury, $31.99). Both of the writers agree that the biggest barrier to this strategy is often women’s lack of self-belief and confidence…

THE NEW RULES OF SUCCESS

SOULA-MARIE PERDIS COO, NAPOLEON PERDIS While Napoleon Perdis is the creative force and public face of his eponymous beauty brand, it’s been his wife Soula-Marie – with her flair for finance and operations – who has been instrumental in growing the company into a global success story. Describe your style. I would describe my style as classic, but as much as I can it’s to the minute. I’m the type of person who decides what I’m going to wear that morning. It totally depends on how I’m feeling – I might wear a topto-toe structured ’60s look, or I might do something casual and wear jeans and a leather bomber jacket. What’s your go-to staple? I wear a lot of black as it looks good through the day and night.…

Leading the way

DEVELOP GENUINE SELF-WORTH PIPPA GRANGE Global general manager culture, leadership & ethics, Cotton On Group Personal confidence is the outward expression of your deepest selfbelief; something built over a lifetime of experiences. The will to lead all starts here. If in your own heart you are unsure whether you are good enough, you are unlikely to have the resilience, persistence and patience to put yourself in the fray, be vulnerable, or take risks. A genuine self-worth allows you to know you are still fundamentally OK, even when you have something to work on. Every leader needs to ensure that their inner world is a sanctuary of honest reflection, self-compassion and renewal – not a battlefield of negative critique. “Genuine selfworth allows you to know you are fundamentally OK, even when…

The most Remoté Ristorante in the world.

So, you're booking a table for dinner. You've got your local faves just around the corner. Easy. Or you could mix it up and try that new place everyone's talking about across town. Done. But if you're feeling really adventurous, you could take a seat at Kieran and Tory's Pizzeria -the most remote pizzeria in the world. With million dollar views from the most western point of Australia, getting a table isn't difficult, but getting there certainly is. For most it's just a flight, rugged 10-hour fourwheel drive and a stunning barge ride away. All to set foot on an island that only five people call home. Two of these people, who with the help of Ristorante frozen pizza, turned their home into a pizzeria for one night only. The…

The dress is bigger than she is. On a cool October evening, a 20-year-old Kate Moss stands backstage at Paris Fashion Week, her slight frame engulfed by a vast rufed crinoline and a boned white corset. A powdered wig tops her mousey brown hair, and she has two pink circles of doll-like blusher on her cheeks. The efect is part regal, part kid at a fancy dress party. Never has she looked so delicate and yet so powerful. Designer John Galliano fusses with the back of her skirt as he delivers some pointers for the catwalk. Moss approaches modelling like an actor with a role; she likes to get in character. “If you hear a wolf, you can look round like this,” says Galliano, glancing over one shoulder and widening…
