Innholdsfortegnelse for September 2018 i Vogue Australia

It has been eight years since we lost Alexander McQueen, but with the release of the documentary McQueen this month putting him back in the spotlight, fellow Celt, friend and colleague Godfrey Deeny remembers the man, his extraordinary talents and his contribution to fashion in ‘Alexander the great’. As Deeny points out, in the age of Instagram influencers who post live feeds from shows, it’s hard to appreciate how much influence McQueen wielded at the time, and just how coveted tickets were to see his artistry first – and first-hand. The lines at his shows resembled queues for rock concerts, although street-style photographers weren’t yet on hand to capture the perfectly dressed attendees. The scene often descended into an uncontrollable crush, with those in the crowd brought to tears if…

Fashion is full of hyperbole. So this will sound like a very tall statement. Before before Alexander ‘Lee’ McQueen exploded into fashion, designers were seen to have occasional artistic moments; after him, the truly great creators are reasonably regarded as fine artists. Prior to McQueen, great designers like Coco Chanel or Yves Saint Laurent collaborated with great artists like Picasso or Jean Cocteau. But after McQueen had enthralled, enraged and exhilarated the world with his shows and clothes that referenced war, destruction, surrealism and sexual perversity, designers were left with little choice. Their shows have to be artistic statements: anything less is regarded as purely merchandising. In our instant internet era, when wannabe bloggers in standing put live feeds on Instagram, it’s hard to appreciate how much influence and power…

What a time to be a woman. As we ride the crest of third-wave feminism, propelled forward by the resounding shouts of ‘Time’s Up’ and ‘MeToo’, there is a new sense of solidarity among females. We’re ‘woke’, as they say, to a pervading sense of awareness and it infiltrates our everyday thoughts, words, actions and the way we dress. This is ultimately about women dressing for themselves. Be it subtle – the start of a new chapter for the monarchy as the new royal Meghan Markle bares her shoulders on her wedding day – or out there, as when Cate Blanchett so unapologetically put it as she accepted a style award during the post-Weinstein news cycle. “For me, the true icons of style are always those women who’ve been utterly…

Pia Miller is reflecting, with a flicker of relief, that she now appreciates how precious people’s time is. “I didn’t really understand the gravity of a shoot being an entire production and I guess I took it for granted,” the Chile-born, Melbourne-raised actress remembers. It’s forgivable; she was in high school when she used to skip class (parent-sanctified) to dash back and forth to shoots to model. “I would rock up to work in my uniform, do a shoot, get back into my uniform and go to school.” For her Vogue shoot, a life phase later, she commands a content maturity, something that might have a lot to do with starting young. Tawny-limbed, lithe, with a tumble of deep chocolate hair, it doesn’t take much of an effort to imagine…

It’s no secret that the rules of dining alone are archaic in 2018, when at the touch of a button or the swipe of a fingertip a reservation can be made, food ordered and company found. Gone are the days when guidelines for solo feasting suggested you sit at the bar – where striking up a conversation with other patrons or the bartender was usually easier – or the necessity of bringing a good book were touted as gospel for keeping yourself entertained. Gone, too, are the sad Bridget Jones-ish portraits of lonely frozen dinners consumed on the couch: modern diners don’t fear going it alone, as we’re all acutely aware that we’re never alone anymore, thanks to the companionable, always-buzzing nature of our phones. Now, if one chooses to…

Each year at Thanksgiving, American flags would go up outside the Adams Dolan household in Sydney’s Castle Hill, an affluent suburb about 30 kilometres north-west of the CBD. Matthew Adams Dolan’s mother – an avid quilter and sewer – would ensure the decorations were in place and that a traditional American Thanksgiving would be celebrated. For Christmas, his relatives in America would send him OshKosh and L.L. Bean clothes that he would wear for the next year. “I have always felt quite American,” says designer Adams Dolan in an Australian accent. Born in a small town outside of Boston, he grew up primarily in Australia, save for stints in high school in countryside Japan and in Switzerland on university exchange. His parents were meant to be in Australia for only…

In many respects, Audrey Mason-Hyde is a typical 13-year-old: bubbly, excitable, whip-smart and funny – her conversation is littered with “likes” and her face lights up when talking about her favourite YouTube stars or a poetry slam contest she’s to perform at. But halfway through lunch, Audrey needs to go to the bathroom. Her eyes dart over to the cafe’s toilets and a nervous hesitation crosses her face, all confidence drained in an instant. She watches the women’s door for a minute, wondering if there is anyone inside. For when it comes to going to the bathroom in public, Audrey is no typical teenager. Audrey was born biologically female, but doesn’t typically identify as one, nor does she identify as a boy. Non-binary, gender fluid, gender neutral, gender queer –…

There’s a translation at play. Nikita Soukhov, plant specialist for Jurlique, cherry-picks one of the few remaining floral shoots that’s survived the burly Adelaide winter, and hands it to me. “This one’s Viola ,” he says with the admiration of someone who has quite literally nursed the plant from seedling to bloom. “ Viola tricolor , otherwise known as pansy, is soothing and great for calming delicate skin conditions, even redness associated with breakouts,” explains Jurlique’s education specialist Danielle Williams, interpreting each plant’s skincare cachet – from David Austin rose (for hydration and soothing) to peppermint leaf (for protecting). Indeed, the stretch of land in the rolling Adelaide Hills of South Australia is the birthplace of many of Jurlique’s natural ingredients and, unbeknown to them, Soukhov and Williams represent a…

• There is a shade to suit everybody. Auburn and copper are great for brightening light eyes and suit medium skin tones. Women with darker skin should opt for deeper cherry red, while lighter skin tones suit rose gold or strawberry blonde. • Prevent colour fade – red hair looks its best when bright and vibrant. Goldwell Kerasilk Shampoo, Conditioner and Treatment preserve colour brilliantly. • Don’t over-wash, as this can strip colour and natural oils. • Avoid heat tools, as they speed up fading. Or at least use heat-protection spray and colour-protection styling products. • Get cutting-edge colour. The latest trend is a morphing technique with the Goldwell Reds range, using different pigments within a red, applying red violet or even yellow violet on the outer layer of the…

Kylie Jenner could click her fingers and have just about anything she wanted in the world – but on a Friday afternoon in one of the many cellular dead zones of Los Angeles, mobile phone reception doesn’t fall into that category. The 21-year-old is genuinely apologetic when she eventually connects with her older sister and today’s interviewer, Kendall, five and a half hours later than the scheduled interview time. Jenner is phoning from the bedroom of the LA home she shares with her boyfriend, 26-year-old rapper Travis Scott, whom she met at last year’s Coachella music festival (which Scott was headlining), and their seven-month-old daughter, Stormi Webster. The last time she went off the grid – posting sporadically to her social channels and sidestepping public appearances – was during her…

“I felt if I could track down the relevant people … if I could piece it together, maybe I could tell a The human heart being what it is, murder was a theme not likely to darken and yellow with time.” So said Truman Capote in an interview with the New York Times in 1966, the year his groundbreaking non-fiction novel In Cold Blood was released. In Cold Blood, about the grisly quadruple murder of the Clutter family on their farm in Kansas, broke the mould of true-crime and investigative journalism, with Capote’s extraordinary eye for detail and a narrative that took the reader inside a real-life story. More than half a century later, true crime is still prevalent in the modern Zeitgeist (it’s fair to say we are obsessed),…

Stella Artois is on a mission to get the world to see its ever-popular Belgian beer in an entirely new light, and the cornerstone of its approach is with a series of Sensorium events – multi-sensory dining experiences aimed at introducing the ale as more of a gastronomic experience to drink. And so, to Men’s Fashion Week in Paris, where Stella Artois hosted its dynamic event at the city of light’s famed restaurant L’Acajour, run by world-renowned chef Jean Imbert. At L’Acajour, Imbert’s unconventional approach to fine dining has even seen him named by Vanity Fair as one of the most influential Frenchmen. The menu was designed entirely to complement the beer, something that’s generally quite tricky to do with conventional lagers. Some of the dinner delicacies included tartare of…

KENDALL JENNER As one of the most famous sister duos in the world, it doesn’t get more captivating than Kendall and Kylie Jenner. Interviewing her younger sister for our cover story, Kendall offers us an intimate glimpse inside the Kardashian/ Jenner world and the sisters’ close bond. Citing her favourite part of being Kylie’s sister as “always having a friend to turn to”, Kendall adds she is most proud of her sister for “being a boss”. Which, considering Kylie is about to become a billionaire, is a fair call. As for conducting the cover interview, the model says she enjoyed the role reversal. “Being able to interview for Vogue is cool; usually I’m on the other side of that.” SHARIF HAMZA While photographing ‘Upstate’, Sharif Hamza was working against the…

ALBUS LUMEN Editing ruthlessly is the sign of a good fashion editor and has been the basis of stylist Marina Afonina’s stripped-back summer aesthetic that is going global, despite its baby age of three. Her followers – refined, restrained and more likely to be on holidays than not – appreciate the sun-worshipper vibe emanating through her palettes of baked terracotta, navy and clotted cream. Afonina too is ever on the move. “We just got back from Paris for sales and are on to New York for the Woolmark semi-finals,” she says. Tailoring and eveningwear are joining in on evergreen summer pieces, so don’t stop watching. DOUBLE RAINBOUU “Puglia, Ibiza, Hvar, Barcelona, Hawaii, Sicily, Coachella, Sónar, Fuji Rock …” It’s not a bucket list, but the boltholes Mikey Nolan and Toby…

Evelyne Chetrite is a textbook example of why you shouldn’t always listen to your parents. Had she not followed her heart and instead done what was expected of her, Chetrite would have probably become a lawyer. Which means that Parisiennes would never have had Sandro, one of only a few aspirational, mid-priced French fashion brands that offers style-conscious customers staples and seasonal pieces with serious cred, at prices that won’t break the bank. This season, that translates into Cuban-inflected statement pieces such as pyjamas edged with guipure, pearl-embroidered denim jackets, gentle pink jumpsuits, easy striped dresses with an open back that can go urban with a pair of tuxedo-striped trousers and do double duty after a day at the beach – just throw it on and you’re set for cocktail…

“You use your intuition, use the metal, use your source of inspiration and then play around until it somehow takes the right form” – Sophie Bille Brahe Danish jeweller Sophie Bille Brahe has had a lifelong fascination with a 1730s Chinese chest passed down to her father through generations of his noble family. It’s an eccentric piece with intricately painted doors that are so wonky they’re hard to open. Inside are nine gilt-edged drawers full of curious treasures amassed over the centuries. “It’s completely crazy. There’s a whole drawer of old toys, a whole drawer of weird little boxes collected by weird members of the family: there’s one from Nice from 1901 with a hand-painted beach, and inside someone has put tiny pink shells. Every time I look through it…

Kevin Jackson has been dancing with the Australian Ballet for 15 years now, working six days a week, up to 14 hours a day. As he has progressed through the company ranks to the most senior position of principal artist, he has noticed something unusual happening: his whole physique changes depending on the ballet he is performing, reflecting the physical demands of the role itself. When he sits down with Vogue Australia, he is dancing the Prince in artistic director David McAllister’s production of The Sleeping Beauty in Adelaide, his body fluid and lithe. Mentally, however, he is planning for one of his most physically demanding roles yet, that of slave, gladiator and rebel leader Spartacus, in a contemporary take on the legendary tale. It is a role that calls…

What I want you to know, now and for the wash of time, is love. It is love that drew you into this world. It is love that empowers you to be and love that will enable you to grow. It is love that will forever frame our wonderful entanglement. To speak of parenthood, of my fatherhood, is to also gift you the single greatest truism of this heightened pact. And it is this: I don’t actually know what it is I’m doing. Like every parent, I’m making this up on the fly. I’m winging it. Some things will work, others won’t. But we’re seemingly getting somewhere, together, holding a line in life that seems, for the most part, to trace an ascendant arc. If I’m to be completely honest…

MODERN COLOUR No colour was off-limits for autumn/ winter ’18/’19, but a controlled approach is the key to master the modern interpretation. Let your colour of choice do the talking and leave the rest of your visage sans make-up. EYE SPY The focus for eyes this season was on the past. Flashes of restrained 90s-era liner appeared at Coach, while 60s-esque spikey lashes reigned at Givenchy. GLITTER HEAD More than a subtle glow, the order of the day for artists was head-to-toe sparkle. The message? Go hard or go home.…

Picture this: you’re in an auditorium full of teens and pre-teens bubbling with anticipation. They’re shifting nervously in their seats, which, for those in the front row, have cost $499 each. Some are on the brink of crying. Many are accompanied by a parent, and almost every single larynx will soon quiver to emit a frequency that only dogs and adults born after 1972 can hear. Now, who do you think this audience is here for? A rock star? A hot actor? A teen dream pop sensation? Nope. A decade ago, sure, the above would probably hit the mark, but in 2018 puppy love thirsts for a different type of celebrity, one who blurs reality with aspiration, speaks brutal truths, uses the word ‘extra’ as a self-description and comes armed…

Yes, please.” We expect this answer from @celestebarber, who we guess would be up for anything. And so we meet at USA Nails on Sydney’s Oxford Street: chair to chair, recliner to recliner, foot spa to foot spa in what seems like the only place to meet a person voted one of the funniest women on Instagram in the WhoHaha site’s female comedy awards. “The trick is to pick the first colour you see, otherwise it will induce panic and unnecessary stress,” she says as we study the prepainted plastic nails. And so it’s Shellac Big Red Apple for her toes, and clear polish for her manicure, and O.P.I Quarter of a Cent-Cherry for me. She is all legs and sneakers. Well, when you’ve got it, flaunt it, right? “A…

When news broke last year that then 20-year-old Kylie Jenner was expecting a child, no-one seemed more shocked than her peers. Lena Dunham, whose alter ego Hannah Horvath once declared herself “the voice of a generation”, tweeted that the news was confronting for many of her 30-year-old contemporaries: “A solid 10 friends texted me triggered by Kylie pregnancy. I’m like: ‘Ladies she’s 20. We were all v fertile then, we were just broke.’” A few months later, Dunham would announce her struggle with endometriosis had led to a voluntary hysterectomy at 31, but she had hit on a demographic truth: millennials, born between about 1980 and 2000, are delaying childbirth longer than ever before. According to data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the average age of…

As the hemlines got shorter and the parties longer, Vogue in September of 1965 was celebrating all things youthful. Just as we are now, more than 50 years later, Vogue was the pinnacle of what’s next and the barometer of what’s considered chic. Youthquake, a term adopted for the issue by then-editor Sheila Scotter (the founding editor of Vogue Australia, who reigned until 1971), was all about pinning down what was described as the ‘young idea’ – or which designers were making waves. Naming the likes of Prue Acton, Frank Mitchell, Sue Furze and Trent Nathan in the 14-page spread, we charted the rise of the ‘no-longer-silent generation’ – all of whom would go on to shape the Australian fashion industry as we know it today.…

BARE SOME SKIN Leather is as creatively malleable to designers as it is physically supple. It surprises in a shirt and summer skirt with skin peeping seductively through latticework. TRENCH TALK Call on an intrepid spirit to don a trench re-cast in leather. Build on a colour palette rooted in tawny brown, like outdoorsy sand and taupe. YOUR FAN Sunray pleats fanning out from a focal point give leather softness and levity, taking it soundly into the domain of down time. IN-GRAINED The buttery feel of a luxurious day bag never goes out of style, but select an unexpected shade, like Burberry’s smoke white. DAILY DOSE The sumptuous texture of leather adds drama, even if the silhouette of an everyday top and tailored slacks doesn’t change. WEAVE A STORY Craftsmen…

There was that time artist Camille Olsen-Ormandy wore so many clashing prints on a gallery tour that her art lecturer commented that she matched the art on the walls; the time she delved deep into wearing Berlin prints, or last year, when she went Scandi minimalism in her wardrobe. Admittedly, the latter phase only lasted two days before she returned to her comfort zone of bold colours and prints. “I still have all those clothes: I just curate it more,” she explains. “One day I’m wearing glitter and pearls and everything is print and rainbow – I get really obsessed with it, and then it goes too far and I have to pull it back in.” As the daughter of artists and Dinosaur Design founders Stephen Ormandy and Louise Olsen,…

“I’ve always been very driven and have worked my ass off to make things happen just so I could prove those who doubted me wrong” Being the second black woman to close Chanel since Alek Wek in 2004 makes me feel very, very proud. It’s hard to explain the feeling, because I never ever thought I would even work with Chanel, let alone close its autumn ’18/’19 haute couture show in July. During the whole process of my fittings I would cry – I guess because I just didn’t have any words for the experience; it was all so crazy and unbelievable, and I’m still on cloud nine about the whole thing. Then, closing for the Valentino show a few days later as well … that was such an honour.…

RARE VOLUME The idea is to whip up shapes that balloon around the body, upsizing silhouettes to super proportions. THIS MODERN LOVE More restrained than all-out romantic, the new breed of breezy whimsy is anchored with cleaner lines and a palette more sophisticated than princess pink. TAILORING AND LACE The only caveat in this trend is they must be worn together. The intersection of feminine wiles and masculine lines creates captivating tension.…

“WEARING A HAT GIVES YOU SO MUCH MORE CONFIDENCE” The south-west of America, as the three women behind Tio y Tia tell me, has its own magical power. “It’s hard to explain until you actually get there,” says Nicole Najafi, who is also the founder of jeans retailer Industry Standard. Tio y Tia’s story began with a single vintage hat that Najafi found to shield her from the sun while spending a month in the Mojave Desert. “It was purely functional, but I fell in love with it. I wore it every day and it didn’t matter if you were male, female, old, young, they were asking me about this hat.” Najafi joined forces with her friends Johanna Peet (who has her own business on the side, plant-based beauty line…

DAVID REMNICK : “Ronan, I’m so happy to say, you’ve won the Pulitzer Prize for public service for your reporting on the Harvey Weinstein story of sexual harassment and what became the MeToo movement. We [Farrow and the New Yorker] share this, because it’s an institutional award as well, with the New York Times, and I wonder if, when you started reporting this, did you have any sense of where it would all go?” RONAN FARROW: “I think it was clear to all of us from the beginning how significant this was, what a deep vein of untold stories we were tapping into, and the breadth of this, that very rapidly it became apparent this was not just a story about Harvey Weinstein, or a story about Hollywood. This was…

Into the blue Applied anywhere but the eyelids, waterfall-effect eyeshadow feels strong, especially when teamed with a crimson pout. Bold moves While it may be pink and it may be blusher, it has a rebellious edge when it bursts from cheeks. Bright eyes Finger-painted swatches of intense pigment take this look from pretty to powerful. Opposites attract Toughen up rosy cheeks with a swipe of unapologetic colour across lips, and a brushed-up brow. Paint box Pastels pack a punch when artfully swatched above and below the lid. Forgo the mascara for the cool factor.…

Red has always been the biggest, baddest, boldest hue in the hair colour spectrum. Of course, no-one has ever dyed their hair flame-red to blend in. As a lifelong ‘volunteer’, I know. I have always wanted to be a member of Club Redhead – I have coloured my hair butterscotch since my teens, when my blonde-streaked brown just didn’t seem to match how I felt inside. When I busted out of the ’burbs as a teen and headed to Paris on study leave – accidentally dropping out of Adelaide Law School – it was time to leave my brown pigtails behind. With my fair skin and Irish mother, I looked the part and felt like an honorary member who should go the whole way. As soon as I became a…

Your face finishes at your boobs.” As a beauty editor, I’ve heard plenty of dermatologists, facialists and skincare devotees – and even my own mother – recite this phrase with gusto over the years. But still my daily skincare ritual usually finished at the chin, at best the collarbones, which is down to time restraints, cost (you could take out a mortgage on some serums) and, let’s be frank, sheer laziness. Fashion, however, has a knack for drumming home some truths. At the autumn collections it came via Chloé’s whimsy silk shirts with wide lapels and deep-dive plunging necklines. From neck to navel, they exposed an exclamation point of delicate, refined skin and picture-perfect décolletages. I couldn’t help but lift my (turtleneck) knit and inspect my own. Point most definitely…

WOW ME Dolce & Gabbana’s outsized opticals orbit the head in OTT glory. Saying it with your eyes has a new meaning. SNEAKER PEEK Trumpet your street cred in Maison Margiela’s pumped-up sneakers that borrow from the consummate flash of skiwear, including holographic accents for club kick-ons. HOT FUZZ A shag of searing fuchsia will never walk on by unnoticed. Balenciaga has been doubling up on size to double down on attitude. KNIT HIT Make a snap excuse to visit sub-zero climes ASAP, because although Calvin Klein’s post-apocalyptic focus was sobering, Raf Simons’s natty chunky balaclavas were anything but. MADE IN THE SHADE How can a hat embody baked-in heat and Mediterranean escapism so absolutely? Because king of modern beach chic Simon Porte Jacquemus conceived it; a straw classic writ…

All is not as it seems in these images … Welcome to the world of the digital supermodel. Shudu is my muse – as a photographer, if I get inspired and want to try out a new lighting concept, I can do that at any time of the day,” says Cameron-James Wilson, the creator of the CGI avatar – or digital supermodel as he calls her. Working with the Vogue Australia team on these images, the process involved photographing real Tiffany & Co. jewellery pieces from its new Paper Flowers collection on a stand-in model before blending the photographs with three-dimensional renders to create the hyper-realistic portraits of Shudu. Each image can take days to produce. “Working with such delicate and intricate pieces was such an exciting challenge,” he says.…

It’s a brave new world, with technology making a huge impact on our lives. Vogue Codes was set up to encourage more girls and women to pursue careers in the male-dominated tech industry. “It’s not about learning how to code … but to be aware that technology is becoming further ingrained in how we work and live and that we need to harness its potential to be involved in how the future is shaped,” says Vogue Australia’s editor-in-chief Edwina McCann. Thanks to presenting partner Westpac and supporting partners HP and Audi, the Vogue Codes 2018 series of events took place recently in Sydney and Melbourne. VOGUE CODES SUMMIT It’s the third time Vogue Codes Summit has taken place and the topic up for discussion this year was empowering future female…

Libra 23 SEPTEMBER – 23 OCTOBER Loosening up a fixed mindset is the key to all you do this month. Let ideas and plans free-flow – your values may undergo a transformation as a result. This includes reassessing close connections. As home life settles, romance and creativity go off the scale in unusual but highly intriguing ways. STYLE ICON: Bella Hadid Scorpio 24 OCTOBER – 22 NOVEMBER It’s time for some serious wishing, but also for some major action to make those wishes come true. A new friend or tribe could be the catalyst and you’ll soon know which of your dreams are keepers. You’re magnetic now, so flaunt it, but with subtlety – and avoid overstating your capabilities both at home and at work. STYLE ICON: Emma Stone Sagittarius…
