wanted to bring her new baby back to the UK from a Syrian refugee camp, but was refused, stripped of her citizenship, and then – while her family began the process of appealing the Home Office’s decision – her young son died? Are you Team Pity? Or Team Schadenfreude? Team Bleeding-Heart-Let-Her-Back liberal? Or Team Let-Her-Rot realist? Maybe you think it’s a shame (especially when you consider Begum had already lost two other babies), but that she chose that life, she chose to impose it on any children… It’s certainly not up to the UK to clear up her mess, soothe her shattered, grieving heart, embrace any security risk Begum, and the estimated 150 women just like her, with their estimated 100 surviving babies (all of whom must be dealt with…

WHAT VICTORIA BECKHAM doesn’t know about dresses – or, for that matter, getting dressed full stop – isn’t worth knowing. From the LBDs she made her calling card in her Spice Girls days to the ones from her label she regularly champions today, VB is the ultimate dress advocate. Now she has distilled her expertise into an 11-piece dress capsule that draws on the codes she has made her signature since the beginning: elegance and ease. ‘The way things fit to the body and the silhouettes the pieces create are at the forefront of my mind when designing,’ she tells Grazia . So what’s the secret to a great dress? ‘Confidence! If you look good, you feel good. I want women who wear my pieces to feel like the best…

YOU DON’T HAVE to have been to a full moon party recently to dress as if you have. Gap year style is officially on the fashion agenda: flip-flops, tie-dye and sarong skirts are all set to be big news this spring. But if that all sounds a bit too Koh Pha Ngan for you, then consider committing to another holiday fling this season. The anklet is back, and making a play for hero accessory status. If the idea of wearing one makes you shudder, fear not: this time they’re more haute than hippy. So much so, in fact, that Matchesfashion.com is launching a capsule dedicated entirely to the anklet and featuring exclusive styles from the likes of Alighieri, Jacquie Aiche and Orit Elhanati. ‘The concept for the collection came about…

THE MAYOR of London, Sadiq Khan, is popular. So popular that you have to fight for his time, even when you have a pre-booked interview slot. We’re at Croydon’s Family Justice Centre because he has just announced that he is investing an additional £15 million to tackle a rise in violence against women and girls in London. Wearing his standard navy suit and just-casual-enough open-necked white shirt, Khan moves slowly across the car park to where I’m standing. At every step, there is someone who wants to bend his ear and take a selfie with him. ‘Did you get a decent picture of me with the Mayor?’ I overhear a flustered local politician ask an equally flustered aide, while said aide scrolls manically through their phone. Not many politicians spark…

• The UK’s cocaine market is worth an estimated £5bn, and we have the highest number of young users in Europe. • The drug is currently at its cheapest in the UK since 1990 – this LV EHFDXVH WKH AOEDQLDQ PDfiD, ZKR control much of the UK’s supply, deal directly with the cartels in Latin America, cutting out the middle men. It is also purer than it has been for a decade, partly because the Serious Crime Act criminalised the import of cutting agents, such as benzocaine, in 2015 – ironically improving the quality and potency of cocaine. • Most coke ends up in our sewage system, and researchers have been fiQGLQJ LQFUHDVLQJ OHYHOV LQ WKH UK’s water supply since 2012.

IT’S A FASHION FACT that trainers are now an essential element in every style-savvy woman’s wardrobe, with the right pair defining a signature look. And it’s this fashion-forward aesthetic – combined with the comfort and practicality informed by over 100 years designing quality sports shoes – that gives iconic British brand Gola its uniquely authentic perspective. Whatever your look – and your lifestyle – Gola has it nailed. Looking for a wear-with-anything, go-anywhere style? The Eclipse ticks every trend box – exaggerated sole, bold colour-blocking, suede detailing – while retaining Gola’s distinctive sports heritage style and making no compromise on comfort. For a retro statement that will give a distinctive edge to spring’s separates, the Daytona’s vintage-inspired shape in a ’90s colour palette is a no-brainer for this season and…

WE’RE VERY AWARE these days about the conversation regarding biodegradability, being kind to our planet and reducing chemicals. I feel guilty when my supermarket-delivery fruit arrives wrapped in plastic or if I have to buy non-biodegradable nappies. But how many of us are thinking about our own sanitary products? I had a baby a year ago and have become increasing aware of what I put in and on my body, but I seem to have overlooked the product that might well matter most. Maybe it’s habit (I’ve used the same brand since my teens) but, to be fair, organic tampons haven’t always been available and if they were, they were found at the back of health food stores with packaging indicating they may be made out of hemp or something.…

Thailand’s peak season runs from November to February when the weather is cooler and dry, with the wettest months between August and October. Bangkok is the main point of entry by air; internal connections are good, with options to travel by plane, train, buses and boats. For more info: tourismthailand.org. A 14-day escorted tour from Bangkok, including visits to Kanchanaburi, Ayutthaya, Chiang Mai and a hill-tribe trek, followed by a flight to Krabi and transfer to Ao Nang island with G Adventures (gadventures.com), costs from £1,339pp, excluding flights.…

Lost Dog: A Love Story Kate Spicer (£16.99, EBURY) The amazing story of a woman who adopts a rescue lurcher and forms a deep bond with him at a low point in her life – only for him to disappear. She tirelessly trawls the streets of London looking for him, coming across fascinating characters at all times of the day and night. But it’s so much more than a lost dog; it looks at what our love of animals means to us, how prepared people can be to help (the story went viral at the time) and what it means to be a modern urban woman and ‘pet lady’.…

ONE OF THE pleasing fallouts of Billy Porter stealing everyone’s thunder on the red carpet at this year’s Oscars was the gradual unfolding of the source material for his arresting look. Porter wore a tuxedo ballgown. He was referencing Hector Xtravaganza, a pioneering figure in New York’s LGBTQ ball-culture world and founder of its House of Xtravaganza. The set text on the voguing ball culture – black and Latino gay New York’s countercultural take on the Cinderella story, with better music and outfits – is Jennie Livingston’s 1990 documentary Paris Is Burning, now on Netflix. It is a work of staggering genius that stands up to multiple re-watching. In Pose we have Ryan Murphy’s (Glee/American Horror Story/Feud) commercial retelling of the voguing subculture. Livingston is on-board as a script consultant,…

FERTILITY ON ICE I really feel for women facing the decision of whether to freeze their eggs (Freezing your eggs is a gamble…, 18 March). The cost and commitment for a procedure that seems likely to fail is mind-boggling. While the technology behind it is progress (for those who can afford it), let’s hope science soon finds a way to extend women’s fertility, so we don’t have to resort to freezing in advance. Esther STORIES LOST FOREVER ‘I wanted to really get to know my mother before it was too late’ (18 March) had me in tears. My mum is still alive but has had vascular dementia for 10 years. It started when I was in my self-absorbed early twenties, so the thought of documenting her life didn’t occur to…

Last week, another piece of damning evidence emerged that should make us take a long, hard look at our phones – before banishing them to a drawer. According to a new YouGov poll, a third of people in relationships say they’ve fallen victim to ‘screen-snubbing’ – where their partner is too engrossed in their phone to talk to them. Divorce lawyers say the problem could be causing a breakdown in marriages and relationships. So, if you are a snubber, first figure out whether you’re a phoneaholic or if your partner is just too boring to listen to. If it’s the former, put the phone down, reconnect with the world and remember which relationship is more important.…

THE DUCHESS of Sussex was said to have officially started her maternity leave last week. Stepping away from royal duties, her attention will now be more focused on her estranged family. According to reports, Meghan is planning to invite her father, Thomas, to the UK after the birth of her child in April. Apparently, Meghan ‘understands the pressures of the intense media scrutiny and is saddened by what her family has had to endure’, and is therefore extending an ‘olive branch’ to Thomas. News of the alleged reunion comes as a surprise, since Meghan’s family have repeatedly criticised her since she married Prince Harry last May. Her half-sister Samantha once called her ‘duch-ass’ on Twitter, labelled her ‘cold’ for ignoring their father, and was allegedly writing a book, The Diary…

BOHO CHIC ‘Villanelle’s in dress-up mode. She plays characters when she wants to kill,’ says Charlotte. ‘When Villanelle wears a wig, you know she’s not playing herself. In light of this, we wanted a look which was more boho than Villanelle would be. I found this incredible raspberry pink fur coat from Armani. It’s a bit too rock’n’roll for Villanelle, but right for the character she is playing. She wouldn’t usually wear a bright pink oversized fur coat.’ SUITED UP ‘Another dress-up moment – this is Villanelle going off to do her job as an undercover assassin. The suit is from Marks & Spencer because she is playing a character again. Whenever she assumes a different character, it’s always her take on what things are. They will always have a…

BEST FOR A FIRST DATE ‘The Asymmetric Peplum Cami Fitted is maybe a little dressy for a first date, but if you can’t dress up then, when can you?!’ BEST FOR A JOB INTERVIEW ‘The floral Panelled T-shirt Fitted is perfect for an interview, but if the pattern feels a bit too daring, you could play it safe with the black version.’ BEST FOR OFF-DUTY ‘The knitted Sleeveless Asymmetric is great for the weekend. It has a nice stretch, so you can relax and not worry about eating a big lunch!’ BEST FOR A BIG EVENT ‘I love an opportunity to dress up so, for me, it has to be the floor-length Sleeveless Sheer Back dress, a version of which I wore to two huge events last year.’…

PHOTOGRAPH PETE CARR ‘I DIDN’T TELL MY BOSS I WAS GOING THROUGH IVF’ Freelance broadcaster Natalie Silverman explains why juggling IVF and work was so difficult – and what she’s trying to do about it… I’D BEEN WORKING as a radio presenter for four years when I began IVF. I started on the show in 2010 – the year I met my husband – and, as a result, had shared our whole journey, from meeting to getting married, on air. It felt like the listeners were part of our story. That made the decision to stay quiet about IVF – both on-air and off – feel strange. But I didn’t feel able to share it. I wanted to keep the fact we were struggling to conceive private; I was still…

IT TURNS OUT Instagram’s direct messenger function is for more than just flirting. Now a new trend is emerging for customers to shop directly through the private chat platform. As director of fashion partnerships, Eva Chen is Instagram’s very own Anna Wintour, with access to any brand she wants. But while Prada may be just a tap away, Eva chose a jacket from little-known Ukrainian label Theo to wear during Paris Fashion Week. Did she buy it in a store? No. Order it online? Nope. With no physical shop or website, and just 10,500 followers, she was forced to procure the blazer via DM. The label M.92, whose signature look is puff-sleeved floral frocks, has also benefited from this phenomenon. ‘It’s cost-efficient,’ founder Maryam Mamilova says of selling on Instagram.…

PHOTO: MARCO VITTUR. HAIR BY SAM McKNIGHT: LIBERTYLONDON.COM TABITHA SIMMONS SHOE DESIGNER SAM McKNIGHT LAZY GIRL DRY SHAMPOO, £19 It might not sound like dry shampoo is a styling product in its own right, but Sam McKnight’s Lazy Girl is proof it definitely should be. An absolute saviour for those in-between days to fake freshness, it also gives my hair impressive body, volume and a little texture – something I’d usually need multiple products to achieve. For seriously stubborn flat days, I pair it with hairspray for guaranteed extra oomph. Another big plus is that, unlike other dry shampoos, the ultra-light mist doesn’t leave a white, powdery residue. I spritz it directly on my roots and brush it through for an even coating. Then there’s the incredible smell – all…

ALISON ROMAN may be a food writer for The New York Times but she has a legion of fans around the world. She’s massive on Instagram – her spiced Chickpea Stew with Coconut and Turmeric, and Salted Butter and Chocolate Chunk Shortbread became viral sensations – and her first cookbook Dining In was a critically acclaimed bestseller in the States. The cookbook is being published in the UK this month, giving us the chance to feast on her recipes, from breakfast dishes to salads, vegetables, fish, meat and sweets, all of which celebrate her hugely successful style of what she calls ‘lo-fi’ cooking. ‘It’s all about a bare bones rather than fancy approach,’ she says. ‘It’s highly cookable recipes that are easy to shop for, simple to make and great…

Everybody Died, So I Got a Dog Emily Dean (£16.99, HODDER) Grief, growing up and dog grooming form the backbone of this hugely touching memoir. Emily Dean’s sister and both parents all died within three years leaving her feeling very alone, so she did what she’d both longed for and avoided: committed to a puppy. Wrenching sobs and daft giggles in equal measure. Till The Cows Come Home Sara Cox (£18.99, CORONET) Coxy’s memoir about growing up on a Lancashire farm is as funny as you’d expect, genuinely touching and peppered with excellent ’80s and ’90s details. Her love of animals is infectious and her story encompasses her pony Gus, along with tales of cows, rats and even a maggot farm. Animal Matters: Diary Of An Inner City Vet Charlotte…

HERE AT GRAZIA, we were shocked by the news that attendance for cervical screening is at a 20-year low, with one in four women not taking up their screening invite. It’s a sobering fact that in England, two women die every day from cervical cancer, yet screening can stop cancer before it starts, by preventing potentially harmful cells from developing. The test itself only takes around five minutes, every three or five years, depending on your age. Most of the time it’s carried out by a female nurse at your GP practice and rest assured, they’ve seen it all before. Broadcaster Gemma Cairney (right) was keen to get on-board with the campaign to encourage more women to go for cervical screening. She says, ‘Every time I go for screening, I…

GOOD READ GUARANTEED Wow Grazia, did you write the 18 March issue just for me? First up, ‘We need to start taking women’s illnesses seriously’ really resonated – I have a chronic, often debilitating condition called interstitial cystitis, which went undiagnosed for years. GPs repeatedly told me it was ‘just cystitis’ and part of being a woman. Next there was the financial ‘fear of finding out’ article, which I definitely had until the start of the year, when I realised that what’s in the envelope is never as terrifying as you imagine. Then an interview with my idol Taraji P Henson! My only gripe is the description of R Kelly as a rapper (We’ve got so much time for… Gayle King). He’s no MC, but an R&B singer. But who’s…

PHOTOS: GETTY, LANDMARK, INSTAGRAM/KENDALL JENNER, INSTAGRAM/MADONNA, SHUTTERSTOCK 1 UP J-LO-ROD Newly engaged, newly embroiled in an alleged historic cheating furore, none of which matters when compared with the magnitude of the epic combo-ship mash-up name we just gave them. 2.

NEW IN KENDALL JENNER’S SNAKE BUN You’ve just revisited scrunchies; Kendall, meanwhile, has trained her pet snake to wrap itself around her updo, thereby securing it in place. You’ll never catch up. Never. 4. NON-MOVER DRAKE Kicked off the UK leg of his world tour last week in Manchester. Named it The Assassination Vacation Tour (tick), somehow worked a flying Ferrari into proceedings (tick).…

1. Meghan hasn’t stopped experimenting with new labels, such as a floral-print dress from Brock Collection (above) – featuring the brand’s signature square neckline. 2. On ‘holiday’ in the early days of her pregnancy (OK, a royal tour – but somewhere sunny at least), the duchess stuck to simple shift dresses, as the shape is flattering and easy to tie over a growing bump. 3. In terms of eveningwear, Meghan has stuck to what she knows best: high octane glamour in a customised Givenchy gown. Well, when you have designer Clare Waight Keller on speed dial, why not? PHOTOS: SHUTTERSTOCK, GETTY, BACKGRID 4. Off-duty, Meghan’s been sourcing vintage pieces from London store William Vintage. This 1960’s Courrèges Couture black trapeze coat was a particularly well-chosen shape.…

PHOTOS: BACKGRID, SPLASH NEWS IT WAS JUST FIVE weeks ago that the unthinkable happened, and Brad Pitt was photographed arriving at Jennifer Aniston’s exclusive 50th birthday party at the Sunset Tower in Los Angeles. The narrative went: Brad and Jen had reconciled, 14 years after their bitter divorce (and following a second divorce for both of them, from Angelina Jolie and Justin Theroux, respectively). But in fact, Brad’s appearance was merely the first public acknowledgement of a friendship that’s been slowly on the mend. Now, Grazia has learned that, after finding their way back to a friendship, the former couple are in the process of exploring the possibilities of restoring a professional relationship, too. Following Jen’s party, the pair have had at least two meetings at the Sony Studios in…

REGARDLESS OF WHETHER you’ve watched Dan Reed’s documentary Leaving Neverland, the film that charts the alleged abuse by Michael Jackson of two young boys, Wade Robson and James Safechuck, it will have been hard to avoid the outpouring of emotion that it’s triggered. Since it aired first in the US and then on Channel 4 earlier this month, a fierce debate has raged around the disturbing footage of Robson and Safechuck recalling their alleged abuse. The two men, now 36 and 40 respectively, described in harrowing detail the grooming, sexual abuse and intimidation they claim lasted for years after they had first met Jackson (who died in June 2009) in the ’80s. They say they were manipulated into having sex with Jackson, who became so entangled in their lives that…

ON WEEK DAYS, you’ll find Sophie* preparing chicken salad lunches and doing weights at the gym before work. But that all changes come Friday. ‘If I’m drinking in a bar or even just round a friend’s house, I’ll often order a gram of coke from my dealer through WhatsApp,’ the 30-year-old communications manager says. ‘I try to keep healthy during the week, but once work’s over I want something to combat the exhaustion.’ Meet the part-time partygoers – those who drink green smoothies and work out Monday to Friday, then indulge in drink and drugs come the weekend. While the number of us eating vegan has quadrupled in the past few years and almost 50% of us now buy organic food, our cocaine use has also increased. According to a…

BEST FOR SUNDAY BRUNCH The ideal off-duty base erases all signs of a tough week, but is so imperceptible, you almost forget you’re wearing it. Go for Guerlain L’Essentiel Natural Glow Foundation, £44, and count the compliments. BEST FOR CITY SKIN Think of Revlon PhotoReady Candid Anti-Pollution Foundation, £9.99, as urban armour. It not only protects from pollutant particles, it also shields skin from excess screen time. BEST FOR OILY SKIN There’s a fine line between glowy and greasy, but Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra Wear Nude, £33.50, keeps you on the right side of it. Even better, it won’t do a vanishing act by 4pm. BEST FOR SELFIES Many light-reflecting foundations look great IRL but create flashback on camera. Laura Mercier Flawless Lumière Radiance-Perfecting Foundation, £36, gives great glow without…

HANGING with their gal pals THE SUPERS SQUAD was out for the hottest party of the year, with Joan Smalls, Cara Delevingne, Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber and Elsa Hosk enjoying entertainment by Diana Ross at the launch of New York’s new Editions Hotel. DESPERATE times for Felicity? IN A PLOT worthy of Desperate Housewives, Felicity Huffman has been charged with participating in a $25m US college admissions scam.

PHOTOS: GETTY, CAPITAL PICTURES CAPTAIN MARVEL, the first film of the Marvel franchise to feature a female solo lead, opened last week to massive box office numbers – better than any Spider-Man, Thor or Iron Man opening. It was a two-fingers-up triumph for its star, Brie Larson, who was oh-so-predictably trolled beforehand by male commentators who felt that, after 21 male-dominated Marvel movies, giving ONE to a woman was an unacceptable outrage. Many attempted to ‘review bomb’ the movie with bad ratings online and posted YouTube videos with titles like ‘Brie Larson is ruining Marvel’. According to genuine reviews, Brie – who made a surprise visit to a New Jersey cinema to serve popcorn to fans – is as brilliant as you’d expect for the woman who won the Best…
