HELLO! Fashion Monthly

We’re really excited to reveal our special collections issue, with a catwalk report on the most influential designers for autumn/winter. It’s a truly diverse offering, from elegant corsetry at Dior, to decadent florals at Erdem. To showcase the varied mix, we chose four uniquely distinctive models for the cover – Celine, Nandi, Florence and Suzanne hail from around the globe and represent the inclusivity of fashion in 2022. Be inspired by their style and stories of success on page 30. Plus, we look at the ways we can shop smarter with recycled fabrics, resale sites and high-street rental platforms on page 41. New season style doesn’t need to impact our planet, which leads me to our beauty shoot on page 88 – when it comes to your makeup, colour is king…

THE CATWALK GUIDE Elevated functionality was the theme of fashion month, with hard-working, easy-to-wear pieces created with longevity in mind. Here’s what to expect from the big hitters for AW22 STELLA MCCARTNEY Stella McCartney joined forces with American artist Frank Stella, delving deep into the artist’s catalogue of minimalist and maximalist abstraction. Graphic lines traversed across velvet suits and zig-zagged around the body in enveloping knit pieces, designed to be worn by “Stella women who are both creators and collectors”, turning pragmatic staples into effortlessly wearable art. AHLUWALIA Designer-to-know Priya Ahluwalia’s first ever runway show paid tribute to her cultural tapestry, placing Nollywood and Bollywood films on a shiny pedestal for all to enjoy. LOEWE Loewe shows are increasingly becoming blockbuster entertainment for fashion spectators. At times, even hysterically funny, and AW22 was no exception. Clothes included…

We’re not there yet, but inclusivity in the fashion industry continues to shift in the right direction. With consumers having long grown tired of being told what is beautiful, we are seeing more models that portray the diversity of the world: from hijab-wearing models to models with disabilities; non-binary models; older models and, not just plus-sized girls - but those that represent every size. Over the past five years, setting the trend of change, we have seen Edward Enninful OBE become the first black editor-in-chief of British Vogue (2017). Halima Aden wearing a hijab and burkini on the cover of a Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue (2019) - and high-street stores, including Marks & Spencer, Asos, H&M and Zara, have introduced modest lines and, in some cases, online shopping searches. Also in 2019,…

Tell us about your AW22 creations... There’s always been something so fun and intriguing to me about pop astrology and the idea that our personalities are influenced by our birth sign. I was exploring this theme for the new collection, and I came across these beautiful zodiac-inspired illustrations by Anita Inverarity and we worked with her to create 12 whimsical zodiac prints. It’s very textural and eclectic with a kaleidoscope of colours. As sisters, what differences do each of you bring? I’m the creative director and Simone is COO, so as a designer, I’m given freedom to do what I need to do, and Simone can focus on making things happen. Do your Australian roots have a part to play? Growing up by the beach in Sydney influences how I dress and think about design.…
