THE OBSESSIONS ISSUE

EDITOR’S LETTER On OBSESSIONS

Introducing This Issue’s MUSIC DIRECTOR AYRA STARR • “I exist in MULTITUDES,” says AYRA STARR. “It might not make sense to people, but the FACT that I can allow all my SIDES to SHINE—it MAKES SENSE to ME.”

Harper’s Bazaar

WHY DON’T YOU…? • It’s always good to be OBSESSED with something. A solid FIXATION can give a life FABULOUS purpose! For our Obsessions issue, LYNETTE NYLANDER gathered some of our favorite STYLE INSIDERS to divulge the COLLECTION, the ITEM, and the MOMENT that made them hopelessly DEVOTED to FASHION.

What to BUY and How to WEAR IT Peak CHIC • CELINE’s new EAST-WEST TRIO FLAP BAG has OBSESSION written all over it—perfect for DAY, NIGHT, or when you just need a little bit of POP

Checks, PLEASE! • PLAID gets a JOYFUL RETHINK in bright COLOR COMBOS, MIXED PRINTS, and unexpected fabrics like CHIFFON, for maximum IMPACT and CONTRAST

All HANDS • HERMÈS’s newest MINAUDIÈRE is the consummate TWO-IN-ONE ACCESSORY, topped with the house’s classic PYRAMID-MOTIF MEDOR WATCH to keep you POLISHED … and PUNCTUAL

Top BILLING • LONG, LANGUID, and finished with a dramatic SWEEP of SATIN, this coat from JONATHAN ANDERSON’s first fall collection for DIOR is a cool weather wardrobe anchor with serious STAR POWER

Floral NOTES • CORSAGE PUMPS with sculptural PETALS and jeweled ROSETTES lend any LOOK a welcome FLOURISH, whether you’re hitting the PAVEMENT or the DANCE FLOOR

Written in the Stars

Soaking IT UP • CARTIER’s latest reinterpretation of the BAIGNOIRE timepiece arrives with a BRUTALIST EDGE, with the OVAL-SHAPED CASE and BANGLE covered in gold CLOU DE PARIS studs and inverted DIAMONDS and a glittering DIAL set with more than 100 brilliant cut STONES

In the MIX • PRADA’s wardrobe SOLUTION for the modern multitasker: a little bit of EVERYTHING. Vivid high-texture KNITS meet daytime SATIN, fanciful SOCKS, and detailed KITTEN HEELS. Mix, match, MINGLE.

Good OMENS • Featuring ANCIENT symbols of PROTECTION and FORTUNE, the season’s best MEDALLIONS are modern-day AMULETS that will infuse your wardrobe with some PRACTICAL MAGIC

Green JUICE • PATEK PHILIPPE’s ultraslim GOLDEN ELLIPSE is recast in a deep shade of GREEN that gives an instant BOOST to understated EVENING LOOKS and lends EARTHIER ones a cool note of REFINEMENT

The LONG GAME • Why is the RACE for LONGEVITY so MALE-DOMINATED? Maybe because WOMEN know that LIVING FOREVER might be seriously OVERRATED.

You’ve Got MAIL • DEREK C. BLASBERG talks to Substack supernova EMILY SUNDBERG about the frenzy around her newsletter, FEED ME, the ignominy of the GIRLBOSS, and building a media business from the GROUP CHAT up

An Oral HISTORY of the LITTLE BLACK DRESS • The LITTLE BLACK DRESS turns 100 this year. AS ALWAYS, it’s the LAST WORD in CHIC.

FASHION AND CULTURE

GREEK Life • The GREEK ISLANDS may draw big crowds in summer, but in the OFF-SEASON they’re BRIMMING with LIFE

EYE Opener • ONE EDITOR’S under-eye BAGS had always bothered her. But after some trying years (and some deep ruminating), she decided to have a BLEPHAROPLASTY to take some of the PHYSICAL and EMOTIONAL WEIGHT off.

EDITORS’ FAVORITES
