Love @joansmalls for @glamourmag Oct. We need diversity in fashion and magazines. #DiversityRules #beautyisdiverse —@JaniceDeul, via Twitter @KateUpton = baller. @glamourmag —@PatrickMillsaps, via Twitter @emrata Thank you so much for your latest article in @glamourmag. Women deserve to feel empowered by their sexuality, not imprisoned by it. —@na_lomb, via Twitter Such an important conversation. You nailed it, @emrata. No more apologies. @glamourmag —@dariadel, via Twitter Why Madonna gets criticized & Mick Jagger gets applauded: #Preach @emrata! #doyou #doublestandards #defyexpectation —@rosariodawson, via Twitter And About the Month’s Other Top Stories... I can’t get “My Dating Profile Says Breast Cancer Survivor” out of my head. I’ve struggled to find the right time in dating to disclose I’m a survivor of sexual assault. It’s the absolute worst to bring it up right before…

1 Christine Lagarde Managing director of the International Monetary Fund “Traditionally in meetings, the men look at the men. But if Lagarde is in the room, people look at her. I asked if she’d gotten that famous quote of hers, ‘Grit your teeth and smile,’ from sexism. But she said, ‘No, I learned it in synchronized swimming.’ I love it. If I say it under my breath in French, it’s a powerful statement for any situation.” 2 Gwen Stefani Singer and fashion designer “I am quite sure she is lit from within. It’s as if I didn’t even need to bring lights to film her! As a musician, she pushes boundaries and is so eclectic. I was really curious to meet her. One of her sons was running around the…

“…swept to power across the globe and started making some sense of the nonsense that is politics.” —Bono “…made the world a better, more peaceful place.” —Christine Lagarde, managing director of the International Monetary Fund “…started looking in the mirror and saying, with confidence and certainty, ‘I love and embrace my body.’ ” —Ashley Graham, model “…led against all odds.” —Alicia Garza, Black Lives Matter “…didn’t wear pants. Anyone noticed that lately? OK, that’s a joke. But one thing I’ve asked is, How can we give back?” —Gwen Stefani “…dominated the Games. We’re powerful!” —Simone Biles, Olympic gymnast…

Raincoat Refresh! A head-turning slicker? Yes, possible—thanks to French blogger Garance Doré and her new collab with Stutterheim (the brand famous for its rubber jackets). We’re into the unusual pink and trans parent version here: “To me, pink acts as a neutral,” says Doré, “and the clear fabric makes what you’re wearing underneath part of your outfit. I’d wear it with a white shirt and denim or khakis.” —Lauren Chan, @lcchan Stutterheim x Garance Doré Studio raincoat ($515, stutterheim.com) Fancy Footwork These Neely & Chloe velvet loafers serve two practical and chic purposes this season: 1. They make a great gift—for your mom, BFF, hostess with the mostest, you name it. 2. Slippers like these are practically made for a tuxedo, my dream holiday-party look this year. —Florence Kane, @florence_kane Neely…

Do Riley Keough’s Undone Braid STEP 1 Give hair some grip. Mist towel-dried hair from root to tip with a wave spray like Ouai Wave Spray ($26, theouai.com) for “tons of texture,” says hairstylist Jen Atkin, who created Keough’s look for the American Honey premiere in Cannes. (If your hair is fine or on the shorter side, apply a volumizing mousse first.) Then blow-dry while brushing hair in every direction—front, back, side to side—with a paddle brush to build volume. STEP 2 Now do a reverse French braid. Once hair is dry, grab a two-inch section at the crown of your head and split it into three pieces. Start a reverse braid, crossing each piece under the other. After three crosses, start adding to the side sections as you…

You’re drinking… You tell yourself… Most types of alcohol—gin and vodka included— have been linked to improved cardiovascular health. Champagne is a lower-calorie pick (around 96 per glass versus 128 for white wine). And pomegranate juice is antioxidant city. The apple cider is a great way to enjoy the harvest of the season. It’s practically a serving of fruit! One word: res veratrol, which is linked to better heart health and lower cancer rates and may slow the aging process. Studies say brews can help with exercise recovery. So… it’s pretty much a sports drink, right? So: Are you right? “This one we can justify!” says dietitian Tanya Zuckerbrot, R.D. “A straight-up martini has no added sugar. In moderation, you won’t undo any of the heart benefits.” “The champagne plus…

Honeymoon Bliss “I always feel insecure posting ‘happy couple’ photos, but I couldn’t help myself with this one; this place was so beautiful! Putting this one up just extended our postwedding high.” —Merritt Watts, 31 Hiking Reflections “When I share moments of happiness, I look past insecurities: messed-up hair, weird leg position. It’s important to get over those things and focus on how beautiful the memory is.” —Amy Schlinger, 28 Jumps of Joy “I loved jumping around for [the passerby] who took this shot on a recent bike tour. It boosts my mood to look back at pictures from fun times— even if they were recent.” —Yasmin Stitt, 30 A Perfect Moment “I wanted to remember the joy I felt in Thailand with this photo. But I remind myself, if…

He’s the Stay-at-Home Dad Megan Lau, 31, is a senior research manager at Microsoft; Brian Lau, 32, takes care of their nine-monthold daughter in Bothell, Washingto. After college, where they met, Megan got hired in her dream field, while Brian tried various careers. When they decided he should quit and man the home front, “it was a change, but not earth-shattering,” he says. For Megan, “it was fantastic. I tell him every day how impressed I am with the care he’s giving our daughter. And who knows, we might switch roles someday.” Her two cents: “If Brian were working, we’d have extra money, but we’d also have to send our daughter to day care. You have to do the math about what makes you happy.” His two cents: “Everyone asks,…

I fell in love with buildings as a kid in Michigan, following plumbing lines and watching construction workers drywall houses in my subdivision. Fast-forward to 2009: I was in New York City, climbing the ladder at a huge architecture firm—but I wasn’t happy. Then I got laid off. I had been pursuing my master’s in historic preservation at Columbia University, so I moved home to finish my thesis. I took on odd jobs, and I bought a house at auction for $1,350. Rookie mistake: It needed a ton of work. The windows were beautiful but rotted and broken. I wanted to fix them, but I couldn’t find anyone to do it. I noticed there was a real need for skilled tradespeople. So I took a contractor- training course, then started…

Signature Style “People will tell me, ‘You’re such a punk rebel’…but I was not that growing up,” says Stefani. “I was actually a super-sheltered, conservative girl.” Alix of Bohemia jacket. Kate Moss for Equipment blouse. Alexander McQueen skirt. Falke fishnets. For a piecey updo like Stefani’s, try L’Oréal Paris Advanced Hairstyle Boost It High Lift Creation Spray ($5, at drugstores).  gwen Stefani has been making music since 1987, way back when she was just a teenage mall rat in Southern California who decided to start a ska band, No Doubt, with her brother. We all know what came next: Stefani led the group to pop glory and then carved out her own category-busting career as a solo artist, selling more than 30 million albums combined. The Grammy winner also branched…

there was a moment, right before Simone Biles took the floor to compete in her first Olympic event this summer, that makes her mom tear up when she tells the story. “I am a basket case inside at all of her competitions,” says Nellie Biles. “But this was the Olympics—her goal. Her dream. What we had all sacrificed so much for. Simone said to me, ‘Mom, I know you’re nervous. You need to just relax. You need to know, Mom, that I am ready.’ ” And she was: Biles, who had gone into the Games as the most decorated U.S. gymnast in history and the heavy favorite in Rio, nailed that event and went on to win five medals, with one impossibly difficult, near-f lawless performance after another. Over those…

I had forensic evidence, sober un biased witnesses, a slurred voice mail, police at the scene. I had everything, and I was still told it was not a slam dunk. I thought, if this is what having it good looks like, what other hells are survivors living? I’m barely getting through this but I am being told I’m the lucky one, some sort of VIP. It was like being checked into a hotel room for a year with stained sheets, rancid water, and a bucket with an attendant saying, No this is great! Most rooms don’t even have a bucket. After the trial I was relieved thinking the hardest part was over, and all that was left was the sentencing. I was excited to finally be given a chance to…

Green, once associated with greed and envy, is now the go-to hue for everyone from Shailene Woodley to Priyanka Chopra and Taraji P. Henson. But among the ranks have emerged two tribes: look-at-me emerald, with its slinky, romantic polish, and olive, with that more casual, model-off-duty-meets–Mad Max vibe. Which one will solve your holiday what-to-wear issues?…

 a wonderful thing happened in 2016: Women spoke out—loudly—on the issues that matter to them most. Zendaya, above, talked publicly when she felt a store clerk had treated her unfairly because of her skin color. Ashley Graham, in a picture worth a million words, showed how sexy any woman can be when she posed for the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. And an anonymous young woman who’d been sexually assaulted by a Stanford University student refused to remain silent as he was sentenced in court, writing a state ment so powerful it made the world sit up and take notice. Those are just three of Glamour’s 2016 Women of the Year. Their words and actions are changing the conversation on heady topics including racism, body stereotypes, and…

…Emily Doe “We may not know her name or her face, but we will never forget the young woman who was sexually assaulted at Stanford. Her harrowing, heartbreaking account exposed the unvarnished truth about the pain, trauma, and lasting repercussions of sexual violence. No one could read her searingly detailed letter and not be moved and outraged. Her words were beyond brave…and she is brave beyond words.” —1992 and 2006 Woman of the Year Katie Couric, journalist, author, and cancer advocate …Gwen Stefani “I grew up mesmerized by Gwen and No Doubt. She was a visionary 20 years ago, and she continues to be one today by motivating and inspiring young women, not just with her voice but with her life choices as well.” —2013 Woman of the Year Kaitlin…

after years of being body-shamed in the tabloids, Khloé Kardashian is getting back at her haters. No, not with a Twitter rant—with a body-positive denim label. “I was fat-shamed so much,” she says. “I love that people are into real women now, and I want to keep breaking barriers in the body revolution with this brand.” Though the line, called Good American, will evolve into a range of ready-to-wear, it’s launching with the thing Kardashian struggled with most: denim. “Emma and I”—that would be Emma Grede, a former fashion marketer and now Kardashian’s business partner, thanks to a setup by Kris Jenner—“were just done forcing ourselves to squeeze into jeans because they were trendy,” Kardashian says. So, as they created their first collection, they wanted to guarantee one thing:…

QThere are so many masks now—from the “rubber” kind to sheet masks that make you look like a puppy. Which actually work? —Manasa, 27, @manasavedula  A You can thank Korea for the mask explosion we’re experiencing. “Korean women are extremely demanding when it comes to their skin, and they want to treat it the most effective way possible,” says Sarah Lee, cofounder of the K-beauty ecommerce site Glow Recipe. “Masks offer visible results right away.” Oh, and they’re kind of fun to do too. Here’s what to use and when. For a nighttime treatment… Go for the new, souped-up sheet masks. You want hydrogels, which are soaked in serum and have a “jelly texture that soothes and cools skin,” Lee says (try Whamisa Organic Flowers Hydrogel Sheet Mask, $9, glow…

Tip: Leave hair down to show off your curls! Add a braidedcrown accent, right. “I love f lirty, fun looks. My favorite is the side pony [above].” —Dai Frazier, @DaiFrazier Tip: Upgrade a chignon with the Jen Atkin x Chloe + Isabel Bun Cuff, left ($45, chloeand isabel.com). Tip: Pair an off-your-face updo with a bold red lip. Done. Tip: Tie a black ribbon, as at right, into a half-up style for a festive touch. Tip: Wrap two side sections around the base of a low pony. “I like to twist up hair and release after blowdrying for extra body.” —Letecia Price, @LeteciaPrice Tip: Make a single braid along your hairline, left, or a ton of braids at your crown, right.…

(i.e., quite often), I will take it out on my phone, sending scandalous pictures and Snapchats and sexting with guys I’m only casual with. It’s so much fun, and I don’t know that I want to stop. But should I worry?  —B.B., 25, Encino, Calif.  “You’re not alone in sending these messages. In a national survey, one in five single Americans said they had sent and/or received photos or sexy words. But of all the people who had gotten them, almost a quarter also said they’d shared them, and with an average of three people! (And men were more likely to show them to a friend than women were.) That’s scary enough, but if someone were to forward your sexts, things could get exponential very quickly. The only way to…

 i remember my first trapeze class like it was yesterday. I climbed up the ladder and stood on that tiny pedestal 25 feet in the air, thinking, I’m going to die. I was 24, and my dad had just passed away from bile duct cancer. My father had raised me since I was four. After my parents separated, it was just me and him in Los Angeles. We were so close that I moved back in with him when I returned from the military. I had a great job—stable work, good pay, benefits— fixing equipment at the Anheuser-Busch brewery. When a friend mentioned she’d started trapeze classes, I was dealing with my dad’s diagnosis and too preoccupied to really notice. Then, when he passed and I was trying to get…

when Nadia Murad, 23, escaped ISIS in the fall of 2014, she f led through the streets of the Iraqi city of Mosul, looking for a house that might shelter her. Terror lay behind her—three months of captivity and torture. Freedom was ahead if she chose the right door to knock on. Her life depended on that choice, on whether or not the people inside would help her or send her back to the men who’d kidnapped and gang-raped her. She took a deep breath and knocked. “I didn’t believe that out of 2 million people in Mosul, anyone would be kind enough to help, but this family did,” she says. After they took her in, they listened to her story—and later smuggled her out of the city as one…

W hen I was 17 or 18 years old,” says model Ashley Graham, “I was doing a group shot for this really big campaign, and one girl, who was probably a size 2 or 4, said to me, ‘Did you actually get paid for this job?’ I remember thinking, She’s asking me that because I’m fat.” Graham, now 29, still runs into that model (whom, taking the high road, she refuses to name). “She’s always friendly and nice,” says Graham. “I think she forgot she said it. But it’s one of those things I’ll never forget.” A decade later Graham has proved not only that she can and should get paid but also that she can—and will—change the whole damn world. This February she became the first size-16 model ever…

Yves, Please! Look around you. Whether you’re heading to the office or to dinner, you’ll see it: the unmistakable inf luence of fashion giant Yves Saint Laurent, who—though he designed clothes six decades ago and an ocean away—shaped the wardrobes of women everywhere. Instead of constricting styles, he emphasized comfort and versatility in everything from evening wear (as in his 1971 collection, top) to work looks (as in his highly successful Piet Mondrian–inspired creations, like his 1965 collection, above). He understood that, as he once famously said, “what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it.” Still need convincing? Visit the Seattle Art Museum’s newest exhibition, “Yves Saint Laurent: The Perfection of Style,” now through January 8. —Jennifer Lance Go Big, Girls…

Hoodie, Yes. Pants, No. Wearing nothing but a hooded sweatshirt and your tallest heels once suggested you’d come straight from a gentleman’s apartment and were too embarrassed to be seen in last night’s outf it. Now PYTs like Gigi Hadid and, clockwise from top left, Caroline Vreeland, Shea Marie, and Sof ia Richie are owning the look, wearing oversize designer hoodies with bare legs to dial up the sexy in raw daylight. Walk of shame? More like victory lap. —Noah Silverstein, associate fashion writer Totally Modern Men I dig the occasional superhero, but right now I’m way more into this movie season’s underdogs: male characters whose struggles actually reflect our world. First up, Casey Affleck, 41, left, who stars in Manchester by the Sea, about a man so stuck…

Russian-born supermodel Natasha Poly has always loved makeup. “I’ve been playing with it since I was a little kid,” she says. “I would go through my mom’s stuff and put on her pink lipstick and blue eyeshadow. It was the eighties!” By age 15, Poly had started modeling professionally and suddenly found herself face-to-face backstage with the world’s top makeup artists, from Pat McGrath to Charlotte Tilbury—new mentors to steal tricks from. All of which explains why Poly has become a beauty pro in her own right: She got so good that McGrath often let the model help with her own makeup backstage. Now not only is she doing the faces of friends like Irina Shayk and Rosie Huntington-Whitely (and her own for this shoot), she is working on a…

1 Cold-Weather Breakouts The cause: “Acne at its most basic level is hormonal,” says New York City dermatologist Joshua Zeichner, M.D. And it can be trickier to treat in the winter since many typical acne fighters like benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid are, by nature, very drying, says dermatologist Jennifer Lee, M.D., of Franklin, Tennessee. The solution: We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again. Moisture! Breakout-prone skin needs it too—because overdry skin can get even more inf lamed. In winter swap your usual formulas for lower-strength versions, around 2 percent. And don’t skip that crucial step of applying a hydrating face cream or oil (yes, certain oils do work for oily types by balancing skin, says Dr. Lee; try Sunday Riley U.F.O. Ultra-Clarifying Face Oil, $80, sephora…

Oh, how fragile is the ego of a man. We must never let him feel like a bonsai in a grove of California redwoods— no, he must always see himself as a towering tree, magnificent in comparison with his female partner. At least that’s what you might assume from a new Harvard University study showing that when a husband is not working full-time, a couple is 32 percent more likely to split up than when the man is fully employed. Upsetting the traditional power role, the research suggests, did them in. I started thinking about the whole dynamic of women outearning guys while writing a biography of Queen Victoria: I was stunned to discover that, even as a queen, she was anxious about emasculating her husband, Prince Albert. She…

 it’s Friday night, and I’m running around my neighborhood, barefoot, screaming “Fig Newton!” and shaking a prescription bottle over my head like a maraca. Usually when our dog runs away, the sound of his Prozac brings him home, and tonight is no exception. Fig skids to a stop in front of our house, wearing an expression reminiscent of an obnoxious tween busted for snapping someone’s bra strap: Who, me? When I first laid eyes on Fig, he was 12 weeks old, in a windowless shelter, in a cage by himself. I immediately fell in love with his red eyelashes and the way he placed one paw on each of my shoulders. Our life together f lashed before my eyes: long walks, meaningful gazes, lazy afternoons on the porch—basically a Viagra…

When I interviewed for my first editorin-chief job years ago, a friend who worked in fashion took me aside to offer counsel on what to wear. “You’ll want a Prada suit,” he instructed. Not to worry, I told him, I had a few good suits. I was fine with suits. “No,” he said, looking exasperated. “A Prada suit. Do you understand?” Oh. I trotted uptown with some annoyance, but the second I walked into Prada’s mint green Fifth Avenue flagship, I understood. I had been wearing clothes. This was fashion. I tried on half the store, plunked down my cash for a cleverly designed boxy black nylon jacket and a sporty skirt—the look of the moment—and held my underpaid breath as I snipped off the tags. I got the job,…
