FOR MOST PEOPLE, PROCESS IS WHAT you go through to get somewhere: to finish a piece of work, to arrive at a location, to achieve an outcome or a result. It’s everything that must be waded through and endured. But the reality is that the process is where most of us spend the vast majority of our lives as we grow, strive, change, and evolve. It’s where we develop skills, build muscles, and discover who we are or want to be, and the directions in which that experience can take us are often very different from anything we ever imagined. Process is where we find our voices and hone our vision. In the realm of creativity, process is something that’s very rarely predetermined. It’s shaped by resources, access, availability, opportunity,…

JOSH OLINS COVER PHOTOGRAPHER: “Big Picture,” page 105 “Other than the preparation, which involves research and time spent conceptualizing the shoot, having good on-set energy. My mind is at its most creative when I’m excited and energized and the whole team is inspired and focused on creating beautiful images.” LEAH CHERNIKOFF HARPER’S BAZAAR EXECUTIVE EDITOR; WRITER: “Big Picture,” page 105 “The most important parts of my creative process are an immovable deadline and our gentle yet firm managing editor, Carl Kelsch. Without either of those, nothing would get done.” JACKIE NICKERSON PHOTOGRAPHER: “High Art,” page 116 “Problem-solving has always been a big part of the process, so research is the key for me. I try to find out as much as possible about what I’m working on and then experiment…

“There’s nothing else like farming,” says Ellie Youngblood, who serves as the vegetable production manager at Sky High Farm, a Hudson Valley, New York, nonprofit founded by artist Dan Colen. “You are so challenged and humbled.” Five days a week, Youngblood and her team work a one-acre vegetable plot, growing everything from kale and collards to squash and tomatoes. One hundred percent of the farm’s yield is given to pantries, food banks, and other community programs throughout the state. Since 2011, Sky High has donated more than 87,000 pounds of vegetables and 50,000 pounds of meat and eggs. “What more could you want than to be able to grow food and have it end up in the homes of people who wouldn’t otherwise be able to access it?” says Youngblood,…

Before Lincoln Center was a place, it was an idea. Hatched in the 1950s as part of a controversial “urban renewal” project shepherded by then New York City planning commissioner Robert Moses, the concept was to build a new campus to house the city’s top arts organizations, modeled on the great cultural squares and kunsthalles of Europe: a stage—or rather a series of them—upon which American excellence in the classical arenas of music, theater, opera, and dance could be performed. Moses, once described in a 1939 profile in The Atlantic as a “Paul Bunyan of an official,” earmarked a piece of land for the development in San Juan Hill, a bustling neighborhood with large Black and Puerto Rican communities nestled between 59th Street and 65th Street on Manhattan’s Upper West…

SHREWDER CONSUMER SHOPPING is one of the biggest trends in skincare this year, says New York dermatologist Shereene Idriss. In fact, a recent survey found that a whopping 95 percent of U.S. women say they check out what’s in their skincare before buying it. As a result of this growing interest, “brands have begun stepping up and including actives that have real data behind them and are performance driven,” says cosmetic chemist and BeautyStat founder Ron Robinson. Among the most popular in 2022 are these seven highly effective additives. RETINOL ALTERNATIVE: BAKUCHIOL This botanical active, derived from the antioxidant-rich psoralea corylifolia plant, behaves in a way that is similar to retinol by supporting production of collagen and accelerating skin-cell turnover, explains Idriss. Unlike a retinoid, however, plant-derived bakuchiol is unlikely…

LIBRA SEPTEMBER 24–OCTOBER 23 No one could blame you for wanting to enhance a favorite place, making it more appealing than before, but you need to consider the costs involved and whether those directly impacted by your choices will be happy with the results. You don’t want to make waves unnecessarily. SCORPIO OCTOBER 24–NOVEMBER 22 Watch out that you’re not becoming overly vigilant in scrutinizing how others handle their everyday responsibilities. You may feel their standards are slipping, and it’s true they might be a little careless sometimes, but you can’t let that bring out a persnickety streak in you. SAGITTARIUS NOVEMBER 23–DECEMBER 21 Initially, you might think that a friend’s comments were meant to cause you hurt or distress, but you’ll slowly realize that much of it makes sense.…

Miuccia Prada is not strictly a self-made woman. The company she revolutionized from a dusty luggage business to a paragon of luxury fashion was started by her grandfather. But she is certainly a self-fashioned one. She dyes her own hair honey blond. She cuts it herself too (though she might let hairstylist Guido Palau give her a snip backstage before a show). She is a woman who takes things into her own hands, whether that means ideas, projects, or skirt lengths. Posing for Tyler Mitchell for this photo shoot, she took out a pair of scissors and lopped off her hemline, right then and there. “There is a pleasure in cutting,” she tells me. The pleasure of cutting is what has propelled Miu Miu, Mrs. Prada’s other fashion line, to…

AS MUCH AS HE WAS A PHOTOGRAPHER, Jacques Henri Lartigue was a student of people. His body of work spanned decades, from the candid black-and-white pictures of the French Belle Époque he took as a child to the colorful images he created in the 1960s and 1970s, which brimmed with a kind of joyful representation of life. Lartigue, who was born outside Paris in 1894, always took photographs and made paintings, but it wasn’t until 1963, at the age of 69, that he was fully embraced by the art world. John Szarkowski, then head of the photography department at New York’s Museum of Modern Art, arranged a show of Lartigue’s images. Szarkowski showed Lartigue’s pictures to Harper’s Bazaar’s chief photographer, Richard Avedon, and his former assistant Hiro, who were both…

My brother is a James Beard Award–winning chef. I have always marveled at the time and care it takes him and an entire team of talented cooks to prep for a single night’s dinner service. They begin their days in the kitchen early, hours before the restaurant opens, working side by side, diligently prepping all the ingredients for the evening’s menu. Making something exquisite, whether it is a meal or a gown or a film, requires inspiration and effort. This issue is dedicated to revealing the process—and ultimately the time and care—that goes into creating the things and experiences that bring beauty and joy into our lives. In our cover story, Josh Olins captures Charlize Theron at the peak of her prowess as a Hollywood power player. Theron speaks candidly…

Among those in the know, the name Harry Winston is shorthand for innate elegance, exceptional technique, and innovative craftsmanship—qualities as prized in high jewelry as in couture clothing. But unlike a bespoke ball gown, diamonds from Harry Winston’s iconic jewelry collections can be worn any time of day, for any occasion, with fashion staples as simple as a favorite pair of jeans. HIGH-WAISTED JEANS If there’s one piece of clothing that crosses age, gender, size, event, or environment, it’s a pair of jeans. Also appropriate in almost any situation? A stack of simple diamond tennis bracelets from Harry Winston. Their inherent ease is a philosophical match for the laid-back attitude of a well-made pair of jeans. The same way you might mix in stilettos to elevate your denim, add an…

COUTURE IS A NOTORIOUSLY labor-intensive process, a luxurious measure of beads, pearls, yards of fabric, and stitches that adds up to incalculable beauty. But where does one even begin when the goal is (dauntingly!) perfection? For Daniel Roseberry, the 37-year-old artistic director of Schiaparelli since 2019, it’s a gut feeling. With the Fall 2022 collection, he wanted to emphasize tailoring as “a classic idea that grounds all the surrealism” of the boundary-rattling house founded by Elsa Schiaparelli nearly a century ago. Roseberry’s gauntlet-thrower of an opening look: a severe black skirt suit and boater with a champagne corset, kissed on the hips by two velvet bows. The jacket alone took five fittings and over 150 hours to perfect; his first sketch had just the shape of the shoulder. Between his…

HERNO GLOBE The Italian outerwear label’s new offshoot features quilted jackets, vests, and bombers made from sustainable materials like recycled taffeta and biodegradable nylon and filled with recycled down LIFTED “I was inspired by the journey of Blackness—the twists and turns, the joyful and the not-so-joyful moments, but most of all the raw strength and beauty,” says designer Carly Cushnie of the costumes she created for choreographer Christopher Rudd’s new ballet, Lifted, a celebration of Black excellence that showcases an all-Black cast and creative team. It will premiere at American Ballet Theatre’s Fall Gala in New York on October 27. GUEST IN RESIDENCE The October drop of Gigi Hadid’s new knitwear line includes colorful varsity-themed pieces like half-zip pullovers, warm-up jackets, basketball shorts, and beanies, all rendered in super-soft cashmere.…

Most women associate menopause with the end of menstruation and the beginning of hot flashes. What they may not anticipate, however, are all of the other related side effects, including brain fog, depression, acne, joint pain, mood swings, night sweats, insomnia, dry skin, reduced sex drive, hair loss, and more. For many of the 55 million menopausal women in the U.S. (or the estimated 1.3 million who will join them this year), these symptoms catch them by surprise. “Only about 20 percent of physicians get training in menopausal treatments,” says Kourtney Sims, an ob-gyn in Houston, who adds that most medical schools—and ob-gyn residencies—spend minimal time focusing on this part of a woman’s life. And if doctors aren’t adequately educated on menopause symptoms and management, how can they help patients…

Charlize Theron recently threw a surprise 40th birthday party for a dear friend, someone she says is like a sister to her. The friend, she tells me, has a thing for Michael Bolton. “So I called him up,” Theron recounts. “I said, ‘Listen, I know you’re probably going to say no, but would you mind singing a song at my friend’s birthday party?’ And he was like, ‘Yeah,’ and, oh my God, he was just so cool.” So cool, in fact, that Bolton stayed at the party, which was Vegas themed, gambling and doing shots with the guests. Seth Rogen, who costarred with Theron in the 2019 romantic comedy Long Shot, was one of them. “It was an unexpected and wild treat, I can confidently say,” Rogen recalls. “He was…

On November 25, Dijon will release her sophomore album, Black Girl Magic, which features collaborations with Channel Tres, Eve, and Luke Solomon. “It’s really about love and self-acceptance,” says Dijon, a fixture in the clubs of Berlin, where she’s based, who has helped soundtrack runway shows for Louis Vuitton and Dior. (She also has her own fashion brand under the Comme des Garçons umbrella.) In everything she does, Dijon seeks to pay homage to dance music’s birthplace in queer Black and Latin spaces. So when Beyoncé asked Dijon to help produce her recent dance-inspired album, Renaissance, she was excited by the opportunity to center those experiences. “Beyoncé wanted to celebrate the roots of dance culture in an authentic way,” she explains. “I’m very proud to share how much magic was…

I don’t have a uniform; I have moods. Sometimes I want to wear dresses, and sometimes I want to wear cargos or sequins or bold, bright colors. I bought my Celine jeans at Saks’s New York flagship toward the end of 2020. Things were opening up again, and I needed some retail therapy. I was thinking, “How do I want to get dressed? I’m not showing up to the office in head-to-toe leather now, but I do need something that looks chic.” Out of all the categories of dressing, denim was one that still had me stumped. I could wear a pair of black jeans with a biker boot and jacket and feel totally comfortable, but blue denim was not my vibe. I feel better when I’m dressed up. When…

It’s a new day for late night. Long dominated by white men and cue cards, the after-hours talk show is undergoing an overdue transformation, with networks finally reexamining not only which conversations deserve to be had but how they should unfold and who should lead them. Sam Jay and Amber Ruffin are from the new class of hosts who are approaching their shows without precedent in mind. Chelsea Handler took a similar tack when she launched Chelsea Lately on E! in 2007, which eschewed typical talk-show fare and connected with women—a demographic long neglected by late night—in a way few of her predecessors had. On her podcast, Dear Chelsea, which she launched in 2021, Handler lets her audience lead by answering its questions—about sex, drugs, and everything in between—with the…

WHEN THE RESTAURANT NOMA, a portmanteau of the Danish words nordisk (Nordic) and mad (food), opened in a former warehouse along the canals of Copenhagen’s Christianshavn neighborhood in 2003, “fine dining” meant white tablecloths and caviar. Then-25-year-old chef René Redzepi completely upended the concept. His belief that truly one-of-a-kind culinary experiences could be achieved in an unpretentious setting using natural, locally sourced ingredients set a new course for the farm-to-table movement. Noma topped the World’s 50 Best Restaurants list four times between 2010 and 2014 and became the foodie destination. And then it closed. “We were starting to be limited by our success,” Redzepi says of his decision to shutter the restaurant and do pop-ups around the world. “Our entire team—60-some people, from the dishwasher to the CEO—traveled first to…

The Hudson Valley has been attracting cultural influencers as far back as the early 1800s, when the British-born painter Thomas Cole inspired the Hudson River School with his evocative landscape artwork. In fact, the bucolic region just north of Manhattan, which stretches from Yonkers to Albany, expanding along both sides of the Hudson, has been defined almost as profoundly by artists and alternative thinkers as it has by its geography, from the renowned artists’ colony Byrdcliffe, near Woodstock, to the Dia Art Foundation’s expansive gallery in Beacon, to the open-air sculpture museum Storm King in New Windsor. In 2014, painters Brice and Helen Marden set the tone for the kind of clash of contemporary art and design against centuries-old rustic architecture and lush greenery that has come to define hospitality…

CLEAN SLATE Stella by Stella McCartney incorporates the designer’s ecoconsciousness into a trio of planet-friendly skincare products: Reset Cleanser, Restore Cream, and Alter-Care Serum (at left, $140). Each formula is infused with a refreshing aroma created by perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, using 90 percent naturalorigin ingredients. “I was inspired by my mom, who would make her own oils from the roses in our garden,” McCartney tells Bazaar. INDULGENT ESCAPE Malibu’s buzziest wellness retreat, the Ranch, opened a new location in May at the Palazzo Fiuggi resort, an hour outside Rome—but now (without the summer crowds) is the ideal time to go. The Ranch’s signature eight-day program (from $9,100 per person) includes four-hour morning hikes, plant-based cuisine, daily massages, health consultations, and scheduled nap time in your room or by the pool.…
