Innholdsfortegnelse for September 14, 2022 i Stylist

Like every part of our lives, the world of fashion has transformed over the past two years. Navigating not just a sea but a tsunami of change – from the pandemic, lockdown and supply-chain issues, to the rise of demand for sustainability and the impending challenges of cost of living to businesses and customers alike – the industry has been put through its paces. But one thing that has clearly not been hampered is creativity. In the a/w 2022 shows, London proved once again why it is the most iconic of the fashion cities – ground-breaking designs, mind-bending ideas and a return to the theatre and performance the capital is famous for. In retail, our options as consumers have become more flexible and sustainable than ever, as we move away from fast fashion. Now fashion rentals…

A ONE-DAY DIARY FROM FLAT WHITE TO LIGHTS OUT Anita, 32, is the founder of Diet Paratha, a platform that champions south Asian representation in creative spaces. She lives in Hackney with her boyfriend and flatmate My alarm goes off at 7.30am. I like to meditate, although I often get sucked into my phone for a few minutes first thing. I’ll make breakfast next, usually a crumpet or an English muffin, then get ready. Picking my outfit is my favourite part of the day and right now I’m loving an independent brand called Yuzefi. Diet Paratha started as a moodboard. I set up the Instagram account (@diet_paratha) in 2017 to share vintage Bollywood posters as a side project to my career in advertising. It was only when lockdown hit…

cara delevingne At 30, Cara Delevingne is the most celebrated model of her generation. Here, she speaks to Stylist about identity, individuality and the future of fashion words: meena alexanderPhotography: simon EMMETTfashion: cheryl konteh To see Cara Delevingne in front of a camera is to watch a master at work. After 11 years of stomping down catwalks and fronting commercial campaigns, she knows how to nail every angle, moving fluidly and glaring down the lens with unbridled confidence. The fact she’s got four lively huskies crowding around her legs doesn’t faze her; like everyone else at the shoot on this balmy July day, the puppies are under her spell. For her Stylist cover debut, the 30-year-old supermodel and actor is wearing clothes she designed for Karl Lagerfeld, the eponymous brand of her…

ones to watch The capital is back on top in the style stakes thanks to a trio of new-generation designers who infused London Fashion Week with edge, excitement and clothes we really want to wear words: meena alexanderillustration: Max-o-matic If New York is glamorous, Milan is sexy and Paris is refined, the word to describe our own fashion capital has always been cool. London is the youngest and most rebellious of the four major fashion weeks, known for risk-takers, fresh ideas and an overflow of up-and-coming talent. Its hallowed catwalks have fostered some of the industry’s most iconic debuts, from 15-year-old ingénue Naomi Campbell walking for Jasper Conran in 1986 to the very first collections by Alexander McQueen, Phoebe Philo and Stella McCartney. Inevitably, though, several seasons of cancelled and…

stylist advertorial From new lighting to resetting your sleep pattern, here’s how to boost your wellness routine in time for autumn… Up until our early 20s, September signalled the start of a new term. Shorter days and crunchy leaves signal that a fresh start is looming. Although it’s something most often associated with academia, it’s a concept that can be taken into adulthood and used as a tool to help boost your wellbeing and frame of mind. “September marks the end of summer, which means less socialising and more time spent at home,” says Michelle Flynn, CBT practitioner and certified health coach. “It’s also a time when we start thinking about the habits we want in place for the new year.” Chartered psychologist Catherine Hallissey concurs, adding that September is a much…

emma grede Having been ignored by London’s biggest department stores, Stylist’s Billie Bhatia gets a hefty dose of retail therapy when she goes shopping with Emma Grede, the woman who changed the inclusivity game WORDS: BILLIE BHATIAPHOTOGRAPHY: SARAH BRICK Working in fashion, you would think that shopping for clothes would be among my most favourite things. But, truth be told, I have hated it for as long as I can remember. The irony that the fundamental aim of my job is to help people get dressed, while I struggle to do the same, is not lost on me. Over the past two decades I have dreaded stepping into clothing retailers – high street or otherwise – because, most plainly put, they didn’t seem to want me there. I had to…

beauty Swashes of silver, glittering gold and a case for copper, Dior’s UK make-up ambassador James Molloy takes us headfirst into a space odyssey beauty direction: billie bhatiaphotography: Arved Colvin-Smith MIXED METALS The new rules of make-up are that there are no rules, and Dior’s UK make-up ambassador James Molloy couldn’t agree more. “Make-up is such a feeling, and if you feel like wearing gold on one eye and silver on the other, who is to say you can’t?” Sweep generous amounts of Dior 5 Couleurs Couture eyeshadow palette, £49, across the eyelid and well under the lash line for a statement look. Lashings of Dior Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara, £31, give this look another layer of drama and offset the soft haze of the eyeshadow. Using a soft fan brush, apply Huda Beauty Glow Obsessions…

Long coats, chunky knits, layered accessories – yes, the new season heralds the arrival of comfier, cosier garms to wrap ourselves in once we start to feel that telltale autumn chill. It’s also the time of year when denim becomes the backbone of our daily wardrobe. Whether you’re dressing them up or dressing them down, a good pair of jeans is the MVP of autumn dressing, and luckily, finding the right pair to suit your style, shape and budget has never been easier… Curated by model and…

THE MEANING OF LIFE IN 21 PROBING QUESTIONS What will the DJ and author make of our existential questions What one item of clothing is most important for you? One trainer that Keith Haring designed for me. I lost the other at Paradise Garage, a club in New York City, so it now lives on a shelf, gallery-style, where it belongs. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RIGHT AND WRONG? Actions. You can’t control your first thought, but you can control the second and third, and whether you go on to act on those thoughts. What is your happy place? Battersea Park. I grew up there and now live by it – it holds so many memories, especially walking my dog, Tailor, who passed away recently. Who is the most stylish…
