ADDITIONAL COVER PHOTOS: GETTY. THIS PAGE: STOCKSY, GAVIN LI, GETTY, JENNY BROUGH LAST YEAR, IN the midst of Brexit, we asked you how you were feeling about life. Our survey revealed that one in three of you were talking about politics more than ever before, but over half said there was no one in Parliament that truly represented them. That’s why we started our weekly Westminster column – asking a female MP to talk about how they’re trying to address the issues impacting women in Britain today. But, ultimately, the person…

We’re on track for a great International Women’s Day “This Sunday is International Women’s Day, when we celebrate women and girls and advocate for gender parity. News that Scotland is set to become the first country worldwide to provide free tampons and pads feels like a good way to kick off celebrations. When we hear that 49% of girls in Britain have missed a day’s school because of their period and 10% have been unable to afford sanitary products, the urgent need to tackle period poverty really hits home. A few weeks ago, sanitary products were made freely available to all state schools and colleges in England, too. Now let’s hope the whole world follows Scotland’s lead.”…

The Friends reunion has only just been announced but, in fashion land, the influence of Rachel, Monica and Phoebe’s wardrobes never really went away. Because, seriously, could the clothes be any better? Straight-leg jeans, sweatshirts, slip dresses, knee-high boots – all worn with the kind of West Village cool that they brew at Central Perk – are as worthy of an ‘Oh. My. God.’ now as they were in 1994. Today’s fashionable folk look like they’ve been watching Netflix’s reruns religiously. Here are the outfits they’ve bookmarked… TRUE BLUES Just as ‘Joey doesn’t share food!’, Rachel doesn’t wear anything but straight when it comes to jeans. Put down the skinnies and, like Bella Hadid, opt for a high-waisted shape that stops just below the ankle. CARDI QUEENS The cardigan has…

NEW RESEARCH shows that the rate of women’s entrepreneurship rose by 10% last year – with 163 million women starting businesses. That’s good news when you consider that Boston Consulting Group report the global economy could be boosted by $2.5 trillion to $5 trillion if women and men participated equally as entrepreneurs. Plenty already are, of course – and the one place where female-led businesses are visibly flourishing is Instagram, especially when it comes to made-to-order fashion businesses that champion a smart, sustainable approach to shopping. And one that’s still big on style. Take MaisonCléo’s Insta-friendly puff-shoulder tops and organza blouses, which have amassed more than 42,000 followers, including French cool girl Anne-Laure Mais. According to Stylight, the fashion search platform, the brand has had a 267% growth in clicks…

LATE LAST month, I had two rare days off. I thought about sleeping for 48 hours, but I was already fixated on the Eurostar – only two and a half hours to Paris! And what have they in Paris? Yes! Sephora! When I go to a branch of Sephora, anywhere in the world, a euphoria comes over me, that I’ve christened ‘sephoria’. I worried about seeming like a philistine getting the train to Paris just to go to Sephora but then thought, ‘It’s my time and it makes me happy.’ There’s a pressure to do something deeply Parisian, like go to the Louvre or stroll with your loved one by the Seine – but I thought, ‘No, I’ll get the Sephora Express and immerse myself in Sephora for as long…

Hot on the FROW… Tomato red tailoring (Charlotte Gainsbourg), mesh boots (Alexa Chung) and waistcoats (Demi Moore) all got a shout out on PFW’s front row. Most sublime of all? The after-dark sequins worn by Zoë Kravitz and Amber Valletta. Print-cess Lizzo Doesn’t Lizzo’s geometric-print Mary Katrantzou gown spell ‘joy’? Trend alert Bella Hadid just gave chinos the high-fashion call-up. Wear yours with a sunny-side-up gilet – and a shoulder bag for sleek points. Purple reigns in Paris Rihanna, Cynthia Erivo and Hailey Bieber are no shrinking violets. Whether you choose ruffles (Givenchy) or body-con cut-outs (Versace), make sure it’s power purple.

PHOTO: GETTY IMAGES FOR YEARS MY most hated task was sorting out socks. Not my own socks, which I’d just scoop into a drawer, but the extensive male sockage of a husband and two teenage boys. Football socks, Simpsons socks, Christmas socks, school socks, patterned, coloured, black… Every Sunday evening, while multitasking a phone call to my elderly parents, I’d kneel in the spare room balling socks. An approximate match – same colour, different lengths – wasn’t good enough. Only a perfect pair would do. Oddments were sent to the sock singles club in the airing cupboard. Until one Sunday, facing a particularly huge backlog, I suddenly thought: ‘Sod the socks!’ and tipped the whole lot into an old blanket chest. Next morning, I unveiled what is now known as…

THE A-LIST HAIR HERO Hairstylist to the stars (including the Kardashians) and founder of Ouai, Jen Atkin proves that hard work and determination pay off. ON HER CAREER JOURNEY  ‘I’ve always been obsessed with hair. After high school, I drove to California in my Honda Civic hatchback with pennies in the bank. I got my first job in Beverly Hills and worked my ass off. It was a time of hustling. My big break was getting a job at Chris McMillan’s salon. It was the gift of a lifetime. Soon after, I assisted on Guido Palau’s team at Paris Fashion Week, which was a dream come true.’ ON LAUNCHING OUAI  ‘All my clients wanted healthier hair fast. I launched Ouai to cut down styling time, nourish hair and look good…

SOMETIMES, THE FOOD I cook for myself at home (when nobody is watching) is, well, not very impressive. It can feel too simple, too beige or too boring to ever see the light of day. I lovingly refer to these as ‘personal dinners’. Dishes like this creamy cauliflower pasta fall into the ‘personal dinner’ category. But after careful consideration, I have decided it’s too wonderful not to publish. This pasta does not compromise. It’s comfort food, but also vegetables. It’s complex, but quick. Sure, there might be an entire tub of double cream involved – I believe that if you’re going to go for it, you should really go for it – but there’s an entire head of cauliflower, too. There is creamy richness, but there’s also salty crunch (from…

WITH SOME SECTIONS of the media craftily facilitating its downfall and a UK Government greasing its pole, now is probably the worst time for the BBC to launch a dystopian drama about racism. A primetime adaptation of Malorie Blackman’s brilliant Noughts + Crosses series of noughties novels is a baller move. Within five minutes of the drama starting, all the correct hackles will be raised. Noughts + Crosses is a star-crossed lovers story set in an imaginary London colonised by African nations 700 years ago, a colourfully reappropriated capital in which the power base of skin colour is directly inverted. In the opening scene, a bunch of white lads are accosted by the black police force and treated like scum. One is hospitalised, leaving severe repercussions for the fictional Home…

PHOTOS: PA IMAGES OF ALL THE PSEUDO -feminist statements open to a 21st-century lady, the one where we’re allowed to propose to male suitors on 29 February in a leap year is probably the least empowering of all. Partly because one day every four years doesn’t sound like a solid commitment to equality to me. Partly because the idea of proposals at all – the ritual, the wonder, the knee, the glee – is silly, when you think about it. Mostly because I do not understand getting married. I just don’t. The expense, the admin, the having contentious aspects of your family in the same place at the same time, the standing up in front of people and declaring you’ll never sleep with anyone else… Why would you do that,…

PHOTO: GOFFPHOTOS.COM AS THE WORLD’S A-list descended on Europe last week, sitting on the front rows at Paris Fashion Week decked out in designer gear, one notable regular was missing: Dior ambassador Jennifer Lawrence. Instead, the actor was seen out and about in New York, casual in jeans and sunglasses. It was a significant step in Jennifer marking out a new, low-key life for herself and new husband Cooke Maroney. A source tells Grazia that Jennifer, who married art gallerist Cooke in a private ceremony last October, is working hard to stay away from the limelight. ‘She has really changed her philosophy on life and work since meeting Cooke and getting married,’ they say. ‘She used to be a big fan of the Hollywood scene, but these days she keeps…

‘ BE YOU SOMETIMES D ISR HAVE UPTIVE TO ’ SPEAKING TO Yara Shahidi, it’s clear she doesn’t do things by halves. She’s passionate about school (she discreetly enrolled at Harvard in 2018), she’s passionate about acting (she’s been in hit TV show Black-ish since she was 14), she’s passionate about politics and her advocacy work. She speaks with a zeal for all three, in no way bogged down by the sheer exhaustion of juggling three pretty major responsibilities, ones that adults twice her age would tremor to take on. You see, Yara has just turned 20. And she is only getting started on her path to world domination, at a time when typical teenagers are just getting acclimatised to life outside of the family home. So how did she…

Last month, we asked Grazia readers for their views on Invisible Labour – and the results made depressing reading. When we asked what they had done around their home, or for their family, in the past week that they felt had gone unappreciated, the answers came in thick and fast, ranging from ‘The washing up. Always a sink full of it. I’m sure my fingers are webbed’ to ‘It’s the five minutes spare I have versus the five minutes my husband has. His will be a cup of tea and a phone scroll; mine will be unloading the dishwasher or booking an appointment for the kids.’ Indeed, the impact of children causes the invisible labour gap to widen further – and can even lead to relationship problems, as our results…

The joy of ‘institutionalised friends’ AT SCHOOL, it was pretty straightforward who you were going to be pals with: inevitably, the person sitting next to you. Maybe a few of the people in your class. And definitely the girl with psychic powers who could do a French plait. These formative connections are pressed upon us by proximity. I like to call them ‘institutionalised friendships’. In the nicest possible way. And a lot of the time, they work out OK. There is, after all, a lot to be said for having something in common – even if that’s a Latin teacher who spits on you (accidentally) and a passion for Garfield. As we get older, we get to ‘choose’ our friends more often. There are fewer instances where we are forced…

A.W.A.K.E. MODE Mini me How mini can you go? Very, it turns out, with bags that can barely fit pocket change. It’s time to get streamlined. ’70s satchel The satchel, whether it’s logoed or heavy with gold hardware, has bags of ’70s flavour this spring. CELINE Pillow purses The new-season shoppers have a pillow’s squidge-factor. Bucket list We’ll never get over the practical power of the flat-bottomed bucket bag. This season’s come in look-at-me prints. Bags of purpose Need a water bottle receptacle or a lipstick carrier? There’s now a bag for that. MISSONI Natural selection The straw basket has been elevated – and then some – this spring. VALENTINO Clutch your cross-body The cross-body might be a hands-free option, but street-stylers prefer to clutch it by their hip. Don’t…

PHOTOS: GAVIN LI Joely Walker, beauty & health director ‘Acid’ and ‘face’ don’t sound like a match made in glowing skin heaven. But although counterintuitive, the sort of acids in these skincare heroes work to clear out congested pores, exfoliating in an often less abrasive way than your standard granular facial scrub, and kick-starting your skin’s natural repair mechanisms for a brighter, healthy-looking complexion. With glycolic acid at 10%, L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Laser Renew Ampoules: 7 Day Cure Peeling Effect, £24.99, are an intense week-long programme of single-use vials to reset dull skin while improving hyper-pigmentation. Big tick. Less irritating than glycolic acid, lactic acid is a great entry point. Try Elemis Peptide4 Overnight Radiance Peel, £56, which can be used daily without the downtime of some more intense peels.…

PHOTOS: ED MILES, GETTY IMAGES Are you ready for the new tampon/liner hybrid? THE FEMCARE INDUSTRY is undergoing something of a revolution. Once dominated by one or two major players, now smaller niche brands, such as TOTM, Flo and Ohne, are successfully invading the market and delivering certified organic tampons and liners straight to your door. And rightly so – with 200,000 tonnes of sanitary products a year ending up in UK landfill, the new wave of period products are putting ethical and eco values first. What’s more, the tampon is getting its first proper makeover in 80 years. The Tampliner, by Callaly, is the brainchild of gynaecologist Alex Hooi and material specialist Ewa Radziwon. At first glance, it resembles a tampon crossed with a toy plane. However, the more…

AS TOLD TO GUY PEWSEY.PHOTO: ALBERT SANCHEZ In the evening after a show, I usually do a meet-and-greet with fans. I like to spend as much time with people as I can, so that’s a lot of my night. I’m doing my fourth full-length review, and it’s very different. It’s a classic American burlesque show, but with a modern take. We use a lot of state-of-the-art equipment and props and ideas to take it to a different place that hasn’t been seen before. And there are just as many men in the show as women. I used to go out and party afterwards, but I kind of stopped doing that because I feel like I have a much bigger responsibility to make the show great. But we do have parties…

SO SAD FOR CAROLINE I really valued the fact that Grazia paid tribute to Caroline Flack (2 Mar) in a thoughtful and moving way by seeking advice from the Samaritans on suicide. Your coverage got across the essence of Caroline, ‘a powerhouse’ in her own right, discussed mental health struggles and how the ‘slow creep of tragic events’ is becoming more frequent, with Polly Vernon questioning the digital world we have found ourselves living in and asking us to think before we post. Wouldn’t it be great if Caroline’s death wasn’t in vain and we embraced a time to be kind? I think so... Julie…

Gaga: far from the shallows now… YOU CAN ALWAYS depend on Lady Gaga to stir things up. Last week, the music maverick released the video for her new single, Stupid Love. Think Power Rangers meets Mad Max. That country-pop Star Is Born phase is definitely over, then. It’s the picture that makes us dare to hope for a better future: eco-warrior Greta Thunberg headed to Oxford last week, where she met Nobel Peace Prize-winner Malala Yousafzai. ‘She’s the only friend I’d skip school for,’ Malala tweeted.

MALALA I was sitting with Malala Yousafzai in my office in City Hall in about 2014 when I had a peculiar floaty feeling. I suddenly started to think she was unlike anyone I had ever met before. She was so brave, so right and so luminously idealistic that I could see I was in the presence of a modern-day saint. You must know the essentials of her story: she was an 11-year-old schoolgirl in the Taliban-dominated badlands of Pakistan when, with the help of the BBC, she started a blog. She campaigned for a right that seems as natural to us in Britain today as the right to breathe – and yet which was (and is) bitterly contested by members of the Taliban: the right for girls to go to…

AH, LONG-LASTING LIPSTICK . The elusive holy grail of mouth make-up that has been historically hard to master. If you prioritised longevity, you had to compromise on comfort. If you favoured a balmier finish, you had to accept chalky matte was your only way to go. Not any more – thankfully, formulas have caught up, providing colour that stays put. That sorted, shade choice comes into play. We’re vouching for all things berry. ‘I always find berry tones to be defining – because of the depth of the colour – and also quite striking, especially if there is little make-up on the rest of the face,’ says pro make-up artist Andrew Gallimore. Too intense for you? ‘Just find the right tone, depth of shade and formulation that suits you,’ advises…

WHEN KIMBERLY DURAN and her partner Wayne bought this four-bedroom Victorian semi in Shrewsbury, they knew they would have to embark on a major renovation. ‘The house was dated and neglected,’ says the stylist behind @swoonworthyblog, ‘but we could see that it had enormous potential to be a beautiful home. It had many original features, including the cornicing and floor tiles and big bay windows that brought in the light.’ The first room to be transformed was this bedroom. ‘We wanted a sanctuary, somewhere we could shut the door and leave the mess and chaos behind,’ says Kimberly. SUITE SUCCESS ‘The bedroom now leads into a dressing room and office, and Wayne has the same, so each of us has a lovely suite of rooms,’ says Kimberly. BANISH PINK! Although…
