Innholdsfortegnelse for December 2016 i Harper's Bazaar Australia

“When you have a fire in your belly, you can’t control how that is going to mobilise you,” says federal MP Dr Anne Aly, who stars in our 2016 Woman of the Year portfolio. Every year, my team and I spend several months discussing and debating which Australian women we believe were true agents of change and who should be recognised in our annual Woman of the Year portfolio. And as our list of formidable Australian women was coming together this year, I realised there was a common thread running through all of their stories: they were disruptors. In some way they had all radically created change. Whether it was in sports, media, politics, fashion or business, their actions and tenacity had impacted Australian culture in 2016. Turn to page…

My style is free, functional and sensual, always with a rock edge. On my resort 2017 wish list are Kitx cream drape dresses and crushed linen skirts. My leather BIKER JACKET (13) is my most-worn piece — it’s a continually relevant design. I also wear a lot of Kitx organic cotton jersey — so easy, free and comfortable, and I often wear the Kitx flat ELASTIC-LACING BOOT (10). I love wearing a fitted sleeve with a high armhole — it allows freedom of movement and visually lengthens arms. I adore RICK OWENS (7, 9, 11, 17). In terms of jewellery, I love REPOSSI (3, 8) for its refined simplicity and incredible craftsmanship. For skin, I can’t go past DERMALOGICA CREAMS (6), and for hair I use KLORANE (5) shampoo and…

MODELS GIGI HADID Highlights: Fifth on the Forbes World’s Highest-Paid Models list, Gigi worked with Tommy Hilfiger on a see-now-buy-now collection, booked jobs for BMW and Versace, and walked for Miu Miu, Chanel, Balmain and Versace’s A/W 2016 shows. TAYLOR HILL Highlights: The Victoria’s Secret Angel made it onto the Forbes Highest-Paid Models list for the first time this year but flourished in the world of high fashion, too, appearing in the Miu Miu A/W 2016 campaign and walking for the Atelier Versace, Dolce & Gabbana and Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini A/W 2016 shows. KENDALL JENNER Highlights: Jenner came third in the Forbes list. The Estée Lauder face booked campaigns for Fendi and Marc Jacobs, and walked in the Miu Miu, Christian Dior, Chanel, Bottega Veneta and Balmain A/W 2016…

“All around the world, women have been making themselves heard, confounding the norm and inciting radical change in all areas.” DISRUPT   1/ To cause something to be unable to continue in the normal way. 2/ To interrupt the normal progress or activity of something. 3/ To break apart or radically change an industry or business. It’s been a remarkable year for disruptive women. All around the world, women have been making themselves heard, confounding the norm and inciting radical change in all areas. From Hillary Clinton campaigning to be the first female president of the US, to Theresa May assuming Britain’s prime ministership with the ground-breaking task of leading the country out of the European Union, powerful women are challenging the status quo. The organisation Disruptive Women…

BEAUTY NOTE: Shiseido Rouge Rouge Lipstick in Hushed Tones.…

WE HEAR THE TERM “beauty icon” and we think instantly of glorious-looking stars of film,fashion and music. Debbie Harry with her glossy red lips and shock of white-blonde hair; Elizabeth Taylor’s violet eyes; Kate Moss’s rock’n’roll dishevelled hair … But when I hear those words, I’m just as likely to think of Clinique 3-Step, a revolutionary skincare regimen that, in 1968, changed how most women cared for their skin thereafter;or Revlon Cherries in the Snow, the first lipcolour invented to match a nail polish; or Charlie, the first perfume to be consciously marketed at feminists. These inanimate objects, in their own big or small way, changed the world in terms of how we look and see ourselves. My memories of these and other iconic beauty products run through my very…

SENDING YOUR audience to sleep isn’t generally a desired outcome at a fashion show, but when Alexander McQueen creative director Sarah Burton offers up dozens of models to tell you a bedtime story, the thought of curling up in an embroidered doona coat with marabou feather trims and dreaming of gold unicorns,ticking clocks and fluttering moths suddenly becomes incredibly desirable. The flurry of night creatures and surrealist symbols that floated down the label’s A/W 2016 runway, in London’s Royal Horticultural Halls, might have been the result of months of work in the McQueen atelier, but Burton’s preoccupation with nighttime goes back years — three, to be exact — to when the designer embarked on the creation of a new McQueen fragrance. Renowned for her ability to take even the most…

ELIZA O’HARE: You have a very minimal, feminine, spare but emotional style. The one-line technique you use is free but also very disciplined — has this always been your style? CHRISTIANE SPANGSBERG: Certainly not. I picked up the one-line technique when I saw some prints of different animals in my aunt’s house made by Picasso. I was very naive at that time and joked about how easy it must be to draw animals only using one line. My family told me to do it. I knew I couldn’t imitate the exact works he made, so I had to come up with new ones. It was so difficult. And frustrating. But this was the beginning. Then I started to practice, and the one-line technique, till this day, still doesn’t bore me.…

More than once, we’ve daydreamed about transplanting ourselves into the life of beauty, style and interiors guru Aerin Lauder. Oh, for a Long Island beach house with an Upper Manhattan feel and floral wallpaper. For the effortless, crisp, feminine style of an heiress with good hair. Soaking ourselves in the calming, curative luxuries of her favourite flower, rose, is a start. Serious skincare expertise is, of course, in the Lauder DNA, and with her new petal-powered collection, she’s reviving dressing-table traditions with new-tech tricks.

Caroline tran “Editing the Christmas gift guide always puts me in the mood for the festive season. I mean, it’s basically like shopping for everything I’m coveting, with no limitations,” says BAZAAR’s market editor, who has curated a lust-worthy selection of gifts, gadgets and grand gestures to suit even the fussiest of recipients, from page 110. All I want for Christmas is … “a Balenciaga Bazar bag, satin slides from The Row, a Cartier diamond pendant necklace and a CJ Hendry artwork”. My advice for shopping for the person who has it all is … “to think about things they want before they know they want them. It could be anything from pyjamas to an experience — anything they wouldn’t buy for themselves. ” I’m spending Christmas day … “with…

PRESENT, PERFECT The timing was pure synchronicity when reading through “Social Media is Giving Me Anxiety” [BAZAAR October]. Just hours before, I had realised that every time I had the urge to lift my phone and scroll to see how the world was living, I was losing five minutes of my life. I had decided to uninstall social media from my phone, and the feeling was complete weightlessness. I felt like I was entering a brand new world,where I could once again open my eyes and see things I have missed while on this technological fantasy trip. To not be attached to a device was liberating, which brought me back to when there was no social media. I began to recall life without having to constantly check updates, of life…

Stripes are happening. Again. They were big for resort 2017 and they were big during the S/S 2017 shows,so you know this trend is worth investing in. While the pattern appeared in all colours and sizes, side-stripe pants (think: haute adidas) are the No. 1 way to work the look, whether you go full track-and-field or simply nod to the trend’s sportif roots via wide-legged trousers with a stripe on the side seam (go faster!). Other key pieces include Balenciaga’s It shopper tote (so fash-un) or a textured stripe knit. Offset the boldness of the print with classic shirting, or go all out and work the trend from head to toe. Because it’s all about lining up. – Clare Maclean…

IF YOUWERE to conjure Jan Logan as a composite of film stars, you might summon the poise of Naomi Watts, the birdlike frame of Rose Byrne and the determination of Jacki Weaver. As Australia’s jeweller to the acting A-list, Logan knows them all, and has adorned all the icons from Nicole Kidman to Jennifer Lopez, yet when I ask whom she’d want to play her in a biopic, she demurs with a wry chuckle. “Well, I have to say I’ve never thought about that. But what about Rose Byrne? She’s a good person, she works hard and she’s extremely talented. ” The same could be said of Logan, whose life story would make quite a screenplay. Born in Narrabri in country New South Wales, she spent her childhood escaping into…

“I don’t want a slow or, indeed, an easy life. I want to live a life that matters.”– PETA CREDLIN The Disruptors PETA CREDLIN HEAD OF GROUP POLICY & BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT, CONSOLIDATED PRESS HOLDINGS DISRUPTIVE MOMENT: A key figure in Australia’s recent political history, Credlin is now set to shake up the media scene following her appointment to James Packer’s Consolidated Press Holdings. VITAL STATISTICS: Credlin was chief of staff to Tony Abbott from his tenure as leader of the opposition through to his prime ministership from September 2013 to September 2015. “Women are disruptors in many industries — we are certainly disruptors in politics and in the senior ranks of the commercial world because there are so few of us. I like the word disruption in terms of gender,…

CHANEL NO. 5 You don’t have to wear it or love it, but you do need to admire this 95-year-old perfume. It’s iconic because it invented an entire category in perfumery, that of the aldehydic floral, and became a key reference point for all perfumers thereafter. It has been a bestseller for decades, despite remaining true to its original incarnation, and comes in what must easily be the most recognisable bottle in beauty history. It’s glorious. YSL TOUCHE ÉCLAT Even women (and men) who own no other makeup love this light-reflecting clicker-pen for brightening dark circles and adding luminosity to the face (not, it must be noted, for concealing spots and blemishes). It is one of the most imitated products in the history of beauty — every makeup house now…

LIFT, ANYONE? No one has managed to bottle a facelift yet, but a new regenerating skincare regimen that requires a PHD to decipher comes pretty damn close. Estée Lauder vice-president of R&D Dr NADINE PERNODET does her best to translate the science into beauty-editor English … YOUR GIFT LIST, SORTED If it’s the thought that counts, what are your loved ones supposed to replace their tired last-season scent with? Take our advice: nothing says ‘I love you’ like a fresh summer fragrance. BAZAAR LOVES Like a wrapped-up gift of glow for your face — no matter what your skin tone — this multifaceted iridescent powder adjusts and perfects itself on application. Swipe it onto your cheekbones, or just give your entire face a dusting as a final step before swanning…

The logic behind Pas de Deux in Paradise is simple but genius: experience two magical things — The Australian Ballet and the Hamilton Island resort Qualia — at the same time. Because why not? If there’s one thing better than watching some of the country’s top dancers, it’s watching them pirouette across a tropical-island-dotted horizon at sunset, with a champagne in hand, naturally. The partnership has proved so successful that 2016 marks its ninth anniversary, with many audience members returning season after season. It’s not only the performance (or the absurdly picturesque views) they come for. Artist talks, backstage experiences and, of course, the full Qualia treatment (Aesop ˉ -laced bathrooms included) are part of the ticket to Paradise. The experience begins as we fly over palm trees to Hamilton…

 I’m packing for a minibreak to Fiji and, unsurprisingly, it’s shaping up as my lightest luggage yet. Several beach cover-ups, a pair of sandals, a straw hat and a couple of silk shifts for evening should see me through. And three sleek one-pieces will comprise my poolside attire for the duration of the trip: one black, one block colour and one print. “I don’t wear a high-cut one-piece because it makes my butt look bigger and my waist look tiny, I wear one because I’m a modest middle-aged woman with fair skin who wants to be able to paddleboard, swim and run with ease.” “What did you say?” I hear you ask. “You’re going to Fiji without a bikini?” Well, yes, actually, I am, because, suddenly, wearing a bikini feels…

HOW CAN I MAKE MY BLACK WORK SUIT PARTY-APPROPRIATE? The simple answer, Clarke says, is don’t mess with a good thing. “The more you add to a black suit, the cheaper it looks. Don’t feel you need to jazz it up with a bold shoe. Also be aware of the line of the pants — don’t do a clunky wedge with a skinny or straight leg. ” So what should you wear? “A silk necktie adds an evening fabric to the look, but it has to be black. Shoe-wise, a loafer or velvet slipper is an option, as is a pair of statement earrings. ” HOW DO I STYLE CONTRASTING TEXTURES? The biggest mistake here, Clarke says, is using black and white as a base for texture or print rather…

HARPER’S BAZAAR: How did you get started at Jimmy Choo? SANDRA CHOI: I left home. I literally just took my bag and said, “Right, I’m going to London; that’s what I want to do. ”Jimmy is married to my aunt, so I started helping out in the studio. I was surrounded by the machinery, patterns and fabric, and the whole thing was really exciting. I had no idea how a shoe was made, but it all came alive. I can imagine in 3-D, so my mind was set up to do product. HB: What did you study in school? SC: I studied fashion for about a month. All I wanted, all my life was to go to Central Saint Martins and get into the fashion course, and right when I…

“My tastebuds seem to have changed and my appetite has decreased. I definitely don’t have the same cravings I used to.” 365 DAYS OF DIETING. That sentence alone makes the average woman want to reach for a cronut. But when I met an old friend at a party and complimented her slimmer figure, she confessed that she’d started a clean-eating plan —12 months earlier. “I thought my personal trainer was crazy when he suggested a yearlong diet,” she admitted. “I struggle to date the same guy for a year, let alone stick to the same eating habits. But I discovered it was a lot less gruelling than all the crash diets I’ve ever been on and a lot more successful. ” That night she was celebrating her one-year ‘diet-versary’…

“I know what I’m doing. I know I’m shocking you. ”– MILEY CYRUS singer and Sagittarian SAGITTARIUS (November 22–December 21) This month your finances could feel all over the place. While Mercury is in retrograde, it’s wise not to overextend your resources, but there’s no need to go into deprivation mode either. The cosmos is prompting you to consider some unconventional options to turn your situation around. Putting a fresh spin on whatever or whoever has become too familiar could perk up romance in a major way now, too. If you can avoid going to extremes, you’ll see passion return to your home life before the month ends. CAPRICORN (December 22–January 19) Mercury makes a retrograde visit to your sign this month, meaning that even the best-laid plans…
