WHAT MAKES SOMEONE AN ICON? It’s a question we asked ourselves as we put together this issue. Icons are often people who inspire us, excite us, or fill us up with feelings of potential and possibility. They’re emblematic of certain kinds of success and achievement, or they are people who have overcome challenges or kicked down doors to make space for others. Sometimes our icons are people everyone knows. Sometimes they’re people no one knows. Certain people seem like they were born to be icons. Others have the symbol thrust upon them. We ask a lot of our icons. We want them to represent a kind of promise—of a life, a world, a mission, a magic that’s somehow beyond what we know and have. Most people, though, aren’t engineered to…

RETINOL IS ONE OF the few ingredients proven to turn back the clock on visible signs of aging, but some people have trouble tolerating it. That’s why StriVectin revamped its iconic Advanced Retinol Nightly Renewal Moisturizer so it’s gentle enough for nightly use. It’s formulated with both retinol and retinal—a new, more potent form of retinol—and features the brand’s patented form of niacin, NIA-114, plus skin-soothing ingredients. Expect improved tone and texture, fewer fine lines, and firmer skin.…

LOUIS VUITTON X FORNASETTI Louis Vuitton’s Fall 2021 collection takes inspiration from Piero Fornasetti, featuring a rich array of the 20th-century artist and interior designer’s drawings of ancient buildings, locks, keys, coins, and statues. Womenswear artistic director Nicolas Ghesquière selected the designs adorning his ready-to-wear and accessories creations from the vast 13,000-piece Fornasetti archive in Milan. NEW YORK CITY BALLET FALL FASHION GALA NYCB’s ninth annual gala makes a triumphant return to Lincoln Center on September 30, celebrating the creative spirit that animates both dance and fashion.

JUDY CHICAGO San Francisco’s de Young museum spotlights pioneering feminist artist Judy Chicago with a retrospective spanning from her…

After more than TWO DECADES in the SPOTLIGHT, Beyoncé has become MUCH MORE than a POP ICON. She’s a CULTURAL FORCE who has routinely DEFIED EXPECTATIONS and TRANSFORMED the way we UNDERSTAND the POWER of ART to CHANGE how WE SEE OURSELVES and EACH OTHER. But at 40, she feels like she’s just SCRATCHED the SURFACE. Women born at the dawn of the 1980s were among the last generation to live an analog life and the first to see themselves reimagined in digital. Beyoncé’s childhood coincided with the rise of home-recording equipment—video cameras, stereo systems that let you record your own voice, keyboards that let you find whatever sound you wanted, personal computers to synthesize it all. The girls before her had mirrors and the echoes of the trees and…

Our September issue celebrates icons. I think I recognized what an icon was before I really understood the meaning of the word. When I was little, Diana Ross was the icon: Her talent as a performer, her awesome glamour, and her larger-than-life presence left an indelible mark on me. I still know every lyric to every song. But what makes someone an icon in 2021? Yes, icons must inspire and uplift. But I believe today they also have the added responsibility of creating space for others. To lead. This month’s cover star, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, is the embodiment of a modern icon. It has been 10 years since Beyoncé was on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar. I am so honored that she has chosen to return to mark her 40th birthday—and…

CAMPBELL ADDY PHOTOGRAPHER: “Beyoncé’s Evolution” Page 183 “I can’t possibly pinpoint one person who stands out as my icon, but I find the sheer power and beauty that’s found within and around Black women to be truly otherworldly. To me, all Black women thriving and surviving in this world are the true icons.” GISELA WILLIAMS WRITER: “Café Society” Page 160 “My current icon is the urban designer Emmanuel Pratt, cofounder of Sweet Water Foundation, who has helped to transform some vacant lots on Chicago’s South Side into a vibrant small neighborhood with an urban farm, a gallery, and collective educational and meeting places.” JAWARA HAIRSTYLIST: “Beyoncé’s Evolution” Page 183 “My icon is Sister Carol. Her resilience is unmatched.” CLAUDIA RANKINE WRITER: “Building Beyoncé” Page 152 “With the reinstatement of voter-suppression…

ON THE FIRST DAY OF THE 2021 FRENCH OPEN, tennis superstar Naomi Osaka refused to answer questions about anything. She politely said no to all that, agreed to pay the fine that came with her silence, and withdrew the next day. Osaka’s refusal made me wonder if Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter was a model for the selfprotective restraint she demonstrated. Beyoncé’s brilliance walks the tightrope between a deliberate self-empowering personal journey of radical Black feminism for public consumption and a commitment to family and self-care. Her attention to herself and her family demonstrates a form of power built on practices that are inward facing. This sovereignty might be read as a departure from her role as a pop diva, but it ought to be seen as an attempt to place boundaries…

It’s a sunny summer afternoon in Paris, and the restaurateur Rose Chalalai Singh is finally getting a moment to sit down after a chaotic but celebratory lunch service on the opening day of her namesake Rose Kitchen, a small café with a curated menu of home-cooked Thai dishes. It’s located in an intimate 1,000-square-foot space on the edge of Le Marché des Enfants Rouges, the city’s oldest covered market, beloved by locals for being a rare stronghold of authenticity in the trendy Marais neighborhood. Every 15 minutes or so, someone stops by to say hi or to congratulate her. An old friend who lives nearby joins her for a drink at a small table just outside the entrance, overlooking the bustling market. Although the 41-year-old from Bangkok has already overseen…

SKIN-CARE STAPLES Pond’s Cold Cream (6; $4.99) removes makeup while imparting softness. SK-II Facial Treatment Essence (7; $99) is the first step in any skin-care routine; the watery serum is packed with more than 50 vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. Biologique Recherche Lotion P50 1970 (8; starting at $68) is a liquid exfoliant that leads to a major glow. Alcohol-free Thayers Witch Hazel Facial Toner (2; $10.95) refreshes without drying. La Mer Crème de la Mer (3; $350) leaves skin feeling pampered, supple—in short, expensive. Nivea Creme (4; $7.49) offers a similar vibe for a fraction of the price. Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream (5; $28.99) plumps for a lifted look. Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant (1; $24) gives a dewy finish. THE COVER-UP YSL Beauty Touche Éclat All-Over…

LAYER UP The La Mer experience isn’t limited to the brand’s original cream; the Hydrating Infused Emulsion ($110) is a fast-absorbing milk designed to be the first step in a skin-care routine. Apply it before serum to feed skin nutrients from soy (rich in fatty acids) and kelp (a superfood). In the evening, consider La Prairie Skin Caviar Nighttime Oil ($530), which firms and minimizes the appearance of lines with retinol. Also taking inspiration from nature: artist Lia Chavez, who founded Hildegaard, in part to create “modern botanical masterpieces” like Haute Botanical Facial Oil in Rose ($495), which uses 70 sustainably cultivated plant essences.

“I’VE LEARNED THAT WHAT MAKES SOMEONE ICONIC IS WHEN THEY’RE ABLE TO BE 100 PERCENT THEMSELVES,” says rapper Montero Lamar Hill, otherwise known as Lil Nas X. Since the TikTok-fueled explosion of his viral single “Old Town Road” in 2018, 22-year-old Hill has risen beyond typical internet fame, forging new territory as a gay Black man in both the rap and country spheres and topping charts while doing it. “I’ve broken down barriers just by existing,” he says. Ahead of the release of his debut full-length album, Montero, later this month, Hill curated a playlist around this issue’s theme of icons, selecting tracks by the contemporary artists who are “shaping and molding” him. He included Phoenix’s “1901” for the nostalgia it evokes, “Fell in Luv” by Playboi Carti for its…

TO PREPARE FOR HER ROLE AS Jessica, a social-media influencer struggling with body dysmorphia in Hulu’s Nine Perfect Strangers, Samara Weaving got to scrolling. “I won’t name any names, but there were a couple [influencers] that I followed very heavily and tracked,” she says. Weaving’s character is the walking, talking, spray-tanned embodiment of a Facetuned Instagram post. “It made me look at myself and how I judge other people’s social media. We never know what someone else is going through,” Weaving says. “Just kind of Sesame Street ideals. We don’t know, so maybe don’t judge.” Strangers is the latest binge from producer David E. Kelley, who is responsible for hits Big Little Lies and The Undoing, putting a schadenfreudey magnifying glass on the problems of the one percent. (Like Big…
