“It was full of love. We were free, and, for that moment, it was just Bud and Jes, which was so beautiful.” – JESINTA FRANKLIN I vividly recall a conversation I had with Jesinta Franklin (then Campbell) a few years ago at a Salvatore Ferragamo cocktail event in Sydney. She arrived looking fitter and trimmer than I’d ever seen her, in thigh-high black leather boots and a little black minidress. While we were chatting, I asked her what she had changed and she told me she was working hard at being healthy and fit, basically the best version of herself. That she knew she only had one shot at success, so she wasn’t going to blow it. I was struck by her determination, and have continued to watch her career…

“American women are not so crazy about 70 … but 70 is the new 40. Let’s be happy and celebrate.” 6:30AM The time I wake up is very complicated because I travel so much and it’s always changing. Last year, I spent 17 days in New York. I was everywhere around the world:Australia, Brazil, New Zealand … When I’m in the city, I wake up at 6:30am and exercise with my trainer, Mark Jenkins. He’s not cheap, so I have to do it. He’s very good and doesn’t bullshit. We do a lot of boxing, weightlifting and gym exercises. I also do TRX training; you use just a rope and your entire core strength. I recently turned 70 and want to be in the best possible shape. I don’t…

When Jo Pretyman arrives at Kawa cafe in the hipster Sydney suburb of Surry Hills,she looks more like a local than a stereotypical school teacher. Wearing a caramel leather biker jacket, slouchyT-shirt,indigo jeans and her hair swept back in a loose bun, she’s all scarlet lips and nails, and oversized designer glasses. The contemporary look befits a woman who is transforming traditional teaching with I-Manifest, a new program for young people with the mantra“Let’s start a creative education revolution. Let’s build the school of the future. ” Pretyman founded the charity four years ago with a vision to empower underprivileged and disenfranchised youth by introducing them to the potential of a future in the creative industries. She imagined an education beyond traditional literacy and numeracy subjects, instead using creativity to…

Basket bags have long been a go-to beach accessory,but their role in your summer wardrobe officially expanded to ‘fashion statement’ after they became street style’s breakout star of the S/S 2017 shows. While the fash pack’s straw bag of choice skewed classically beachy (see Leaf Greener), some opted for a more sophisticated take on the trend — a wicker Ferragamo bag in a structured, ladylike shape, for example. Whatever the style, this tactile accessory is so covetable right now because it pairs effortlessly with resort 2017’s vast range of vintage-inspired pieces, from floaty retro florals to folk-style dresses and even the season’s grungier, rockabilly looks. There’s also the fact that it’s impossible to carry one without feeling a little bit like you’re on holiday in Italy, or, at the very…

SHADES OF PINK Whether it’s a salmon shorts-suit or a fuchsia trench coat, it’s time to invest in the colour of the season. SWIM AND SURF Wetsuits, boardies and ’90s neon sweatshirts … Surf culture made a strong showing at ALEXANDER WANG, MIU MIU and EMILIO PUCCI. Colour and stripe Stripes of all sizes have been big news for a few seasons now and their popularity continues for S/S 2017. The freshest looks were big and bold, and complemented the season’s optimistic colour-blocking trend, which drew from an offbeat palette. ASYMMETRY   Uneven hems and off-kilter necklines dominated the season thanks to fashion’s ’90s and ’80s moods. Praisie Picnic at Hanging Rock and Anne of Green Gables remakes are both in the works, which is hardly a surprise given the…

MEET YOUR 2017 MAKEUP BAG Consider this an oracle on what you’ll be buying, applying and coveting this year, as advised by M. A. C senior artist CAROL MACKIE. Q.What are three makeup trends we’re going to see everywhere in 2017? 1. GLOSS This season, we saw so much M.A.C Studio Eye Gloss (top left, $36), being used in so many ways. It’s great to have a glossy statement, but be sure to keep the skin matt, otherwise the double shine becomes too busy. 2. WORN-IN EYES Perfectly imperfect worn-in liner that’s more smudgy than smoky. I think this trend has stayed around because it’s wearable makeup that has personality and confidence. 3. BLURRED-OUT LIPS Softly stained red lips can be achieved by kissing all night! Or you can simply…

IT GIRL. Instagram sensation. BAZAAR cover star. Baldwin progeny. Bible-quoting blonde. Now model Hailey Baldwin can add cosmetics collaborator to her burgeoning CV, having just teamed up with ModelCo to create a makeup range that — we’re taking a punt — is perfect for taking selfies. The names are a dead giveaway:The Filter Contour & Glow Cream, anyone? But honestly, do these products replicate the complexion perfection of a photo-editing app? Or, even better, the skin of a 20-year-old model? Baldwin tells BAZAAR about the rules she lives by when it comes to ridiculously radiant skin. “The best tip a makeup artist ever gave me was in regard to the fastest way to contour. Apply bronzer down the side of your face in a ‘3’ shape from forehead to jaw,…

“I don’t like synthetic ideals or altering appearances. I like capturing the essence of the person. ” PHOTOGRAPHER SYLVè COLLESS, who shot Karmen Pedaru in Croatia for BAZAAR’s December 2016 cover, is on an upward trajectory with her moody, deeply feminine work. Which shouldn’t be surprising, but it is. Fashion images photographed by women for women don’t happen as regularly as you might think considering this is an industry in which women make up the audience, the subjects and the team putting the pages together, but the ratio finally seems to be shifting to let the girls in. With eight years of shooting under her belt, 30-year-old Colless counts editorial, advertising campaigns and four fine-art exhibitions in her body of work, and has recently been invited to show at the…

“I am not about that kind of Coachella vibe. I just wear something comfortable.” – GEORGIA MAY JAGGER MODEL AND CAPRICORNIAN “It’s interesting to break all the rules.” – ROSAMUND PIKE ACTOR AND AQUARIAN CAPRICORN (December 22–January 20) JANUARY: Mercury retrograde in your sign might rattle your self-image this month, but could also change your views on first impressions and propel you into a deeper way of connecting with others. FEBRUARY: It’s eclipse time, so opening up rather than keeping things bottled up could be ground-breaking territory. YEAR AHEAD: Collaborations are the way to go with your career this year. From October onwards, put extra energy into trusted friendships and big, secret ambitions. AQUARIUS (January 21–February 18) JANUARY: A new moon in your sign starts…

Max Doyle “I didn’t want to hide from the midday sun, like you usually do when shooting in Australia, because I wanted some of the shots to feel really hot and harsh, like an Australian summer,” says the photographer, who captured the spirit of an idyllic holiday in Byron Bay, New South Wales, in “The Beach” (page116). “I was hoping it would feel like a chilled beach hang. ” The nostalgic-looking frames from the shoot were achieved by … “a little bit of grading mixed with the beautiful Byron light”. The best thing about shooting in Byron is … “the vibe, the food and lots of beautiful beaches to choose from with not too many people on them”. This summer I’m looking forward to … “being with my family, maybe…

This model is one busy woman, so it’s no surprise that she likes to keep her wardrobe sleek and simple (all the better for showing off that boxing-toned body). While she was married in a gown by an international designer (custom Vera Wang, thank you very much), she is a champion of Australian brands, which provided some of her biggest sartorial hits of 2016, from a white strapless Christopher Esber to a bright yellow Rebecca Vallance dress that matched her sunny personality.

“If you fail, at least you’ve tried. To look back and wish you’d done something you didn’t try — that would feel so much worse.” ALISON LOEHNIS pulls a face at the mention of The DevilWears Prada. “It’s so unfortunate that it targets women as being like that,” she says regretfully. “I’m sure there are plenty of men who operate as a male Miranda Priestly … ”As the president of luxury e-tailer Net-a-Porter and its masculine equivalent, Mr Porter, Loehnis has risen to the top of the fashion industry without, it seems, ever hurling her coat into the face of her assistant,or trampling a rival into the dust with spike heels. “That spirit does not run through me in any way, shape or form,” she says, appalled. “I have…

“Yes, you can be a very serious and substantial woman and also allow the planets to rule your soul. ”There, Lena Dunham has said it. But then she would, wouldn’t she? The actor/poster girl for 21st-century feminism is a Taurus, the astrological sign most synonymous with confidence and strength. But Dunham is not alone in her unabashed reverence for astrology. Cara Delevingne (Leo) has a lion prominently tattooed on her index finger, while Rihanna (Pisces) has had her star sign’s double fish symbol etched in ink behind her ear. And this new astrological ascendency has even infiltrated all things luxury. Strange Invisible Perfumes has created an olfactory personality for all 12 signs of the zodiac. (According to the California-based brand, as a Sagittarius I “live for adventure and tend to…

ONE OF THE GREAT PARADOXES of the fashion industry is that DonatellaVersace,the most instantly recognisable female icon in the business — as famed for her Rapunzel platinum-blonde hair and deep mahogany tan as she is for her high-octane designs — is also the most unknowable and mysterious. Or so she seemed to me, ever since I first interviewed her, in the winter of 2003, in a period she has subsequently referred to as her “dark years”. Ominous shadows appeared to shroud Donatella in the wake of her brother Gianni’s murder in Miami in 1997; and when I next met her, in the Versace headquarters on Via Gesù in Milan six years later, she was still lost in mourning, though also responsible for the continuing creative success of the company that…

Few hairdressers are the subject of a major retrospective at Somerset House in London, but Sam McKnight’s unbridled talent is the stuff of legend. Over the past 40 years, McKnight has been behind some of the world’s most influential hairstyles, from cutting Princess Diana’s hair short to creating some of Lady Gaga’s most outré looks. His handiwork has crowned many of modern couture’s finest moments,while he admits that he long ago lost count of the number of magazine covers he has worked on. McKnight first became immersed in the fashion world in the 1970s, while employed at Molton Brown in Mayfair. “It was the place where editors came to get their hair done,” he says. Soon he was styling hair on shoots; his debut cover was for the September 1978…

An Estée Lauder contract is the modelling world’s Olympic gold,so 42-year-old supermodel Carolyn Murphy’s 15th year as a face for the brand is uncharted territory. Why is she still so in demand? Despite her cool, classic looks, she’s as authentic and unfiltered as they come — a rarity in this PR-controlled world where everything is edited these days. Here she shares a few of her most valuable life lessons, and doesn’t hold back … THE PLASTIC SURGERY/SELFIE CONNECTION “I have a lot to say about young girls who are modelling and growing up in the era of social media. I’m usually an optimistic person — and I don’t want to sound pessimistic — but it can be quite dangerous. There has to be more dialogue about the downside of this…

The workout Basic crunches simply won’t do. What works: engaging what are literally known as the corset muscles — the transversive abdominal that wraps around your midsection — as well as your obliques, says Heather Andersen, a Pilates trainer who created this waist-defining workout. Do the entire sequence every day (a total of 25 minutes), and follow the flatter-belly diet tips, too, and you could see a sculpted waist in as little as 10 days. PELVIC ROCKS Lie on your back with your knees bent, feet flat on the floor and hip-distance apart. Exhale as you press your entire lower back into the floor. Repeat nine times. “This simple move helps you find a neutral spine, the most efficient position to train your abs for all the exercises that follow,”Andersen…

“It was a light, aromatic, summery feast amid lots of clinking and cheers with glasses of Moët.” PASSION PROJECT Spring 2016’s Harper’s BAZAAR Bride, our annual chic-bride guide, was launched at The Boathouse Shelly Beach in Sydney, where a select group of designers and contributors cheered the printing of one of our most fun editions with a long lunch and icy flutes of Bollinger. Amid the sharing of crispy-skinned snapper, slow-cooked lamb and summer panna cotta, there were many photogenic moments — all captured by The Story Of Us — and some great conversations about what constitutes a truly stylish wedding. HIGH FLIERS Entrepreneurs Bianca Monley (Eat Fit Food), Jo Burston (Rare Birds; Phronesis Academy) and Kirsten Carriol (Lanolips) shared their business savvy at the latest BAZAAR at Work power…

I love attention to detail, quality, innovation and interesting fabrics. When I buy something, I wear it for a long time. My style combines designer pieces with old jeans and T-shirts [5]. My husband calls me “daggy-chic”. I love my SWIMSUIT [1], and this RASH GUARD [17] will look great as a top. LE LABO YLANG 49 [2] is just the right mix of earthy and floral. My DELFINA DELLETREZ RING [3] has a playful approach to luxury I never tire of. Right now I’m coveting a SOPHIE BUHAI COLLAR [4]. I’m always wearing LEVI’S JEANS [6]. Davines [7, 14] do the best NATURAL, SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTS. This is my MUST-HAVE SHOE [8] and BAG [11]. I always carry these BEAUTY ESSENTIALS [9, 10]. JACQUEMUS [12] has really captured my attention…

“Perhaps we must just storm on and occasionally be considered unpleasant in the knowledge that if we continue, one of us and then some of us will break through, and an appreciation of talent or competence will win out. ” If,like me (and approximately one billion other women I know), you have been tearing fistfuls of hair out of your head wondering if a woman will ever be elected President of the United States, you might want to consider the following plan of action. First, stop caring what people think of you. Second, start caring about what you think of other women — especially those aiming for power — and ask yourself this: do you judge them differently to how you judge men? DonaldTrump called Hillary Clinton a“nasty woman”. “Hillary’s…

THE PERFUME Frederic Malle Carnal Flower eau de parfum, $420 (100ml). “It has been my signature scent since it launched. I feel like this one is very much me.” THE CLOTHES “Gucci’s cruise 2017 show in Westminster Abbey was simply breathtaking. Alessandro Michele’s mix of heritage pieces with florals was a standout. This printed skirt caught my eye when I saw it on the runway. I’ll be pairing it with a blouse and sandals for warmer days.” THE SHOES “Gianvito Rossi’s ‘Portofino’ sandals are a key wardrobe staple. These ruffled satin versions in red are a great update to a timeless classic.” THE MAKEUP Hourglass Illume Sheer Colour Trio, $91. “This Hourglass compact is perfect for when I’m travelling … a bronzer, blusher and highlighter all in one…

THIS SUMMER, getting dressed should be easy. Period. Two-thousand and sixteen has been too tumultuous to waste the down months angsting over what constitutes ‘the perfect’ sandal, especially while it’s 30-plus degrees outside. So create a uniform right now while it’s manic anyway and spend the holidays living your best life (casual suggestion: drink rosé on a boat). Where to start? Everyone’s idea of the ultimate uniform is slightly different, but unless you’re a Mariah Carey type (and if you are, congratulations),anything simple and effortless is going to be a winner. For BAZAAR fashion director NAOMI SMITH, that means a slip dress, a couple of airy 100 per cent cotton shirts from LA resort brand Xírena (she picks them up from her local Sydney boutique Tuchuzy) and some Tomas Maier…

This February sees the release of Gore Verbinski’s psychological thriller A Cure for Wellness, a creepy film about a young business exec despatched to a Swiss Alps wellness centre to retrieve his CEO, only to discover their miraculous treatments aren’t what they seem. Not long after, he contracts the same weird illness that is keeping his boss there. It will probably put a few of us off claustrophobic seaweed wraps and leech therapy for life, but it also highlights the almost cultish devotion famous health retreats can invoke in us. You know the ones. Where you’re more ‘patient’ than ‘guest’; where everyone’s on a repeat visit; where exercise and treatments are dictated (in a nice way, of course); and where you happily pay someone to schedule every nanosecond of your…

1 BE RADIANT If you buy just one new skincare product during the long, drying summer months, make it a luminosity-enhancing serum such as Goldfaden MD Brightening Elixir, $116. It’s chock-full of antioxidants such as vitamin C,which brings tired, dull complexions into the light, and is gentle enough for those who have sensitive skin. 2 BOOST YOUR LASHES For an instant eye-brightener, reach for a tube of Rimmel Extra Super Lash Mascara, $12.95. Its name is true to its talent, as the extra-dense bristles coat each and every lash,leaving them super long without the clump factor. 3 GET FULLER HAIR Make Regaine Foam ($57.95 for a two-month supply) part of your daily beauty routine to experience results that stylists everywhere are talking about. “I have quite a few clients who…

MY DIET “I definitely enjoy a drink from time to time and I would be a liar to say I don’t like to have fun, because I do. I don’t ever want to seem like I’m green juicing or exercising every day, because I don’t. Right now I feel like eating lamb stew, watching Netflix and drinking a glass of red wine.” MY SKIN “My skin comes from my mum’s incredible genes, but I could have easily mucked it up if I chose to live a different way — I see it in models my age who partied. I’m having problems with sunspots from surfing, but I’m trying to correct it with skincare rather than lasers.” MY MIND “I wouldn’t call myself a meditation guru but when I’m on track,…

HERE I AM Jonathan Safran Foer (Hamish Hamilton), $33 A modern family falls apart while a fictional war in the Middle East escalates, posing the question, against the backdrop of the end of civilisation: is the break-up of your marriage still really the most important thing in the world? SWEETBITTER Stephanie Danler (Oneworld), $28 This delicious page-turner charts a year in the life of brand-new New Yorker Tess as she immerses herself in the hedonism of hot restaurants and gets a big-city education.

It’s just past 7am on our first morning in Malaysia’s iconic Langkawi resort The Datai and bedlam has already ensued. Meandering back to my villa along a jungle pathway after a dawn gym workout, I round a corner and walk slap-bang into three wild pigs. And we’re not talking the sweet pink Instagrammable Babe type. These are grey hairy blobs the size of a Fiat 500. All four of us synchronise stressed squeals and scatter. I sprint up the stairs of my villa’s verandah, crashing through the door to find my husband fast asleep and our two daughters glued to their bedroom windows. Daisy, the 10-year-old, egged on by her 12-year-old sister, Charlotte, is kindly offering snacks to a dozen slightly pissed-off long-tailed macaques who have face-planted themselves against the…
