Have your say… Email us at feedback@graziamagazine.co.uk ■ Find us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram @GraziaUK RIGHTS UNDER THREAT I read Grazia View (20 Sept) and agree: everyone should fight the rollback of women’s rights. What is the matter with Texas? Banning abortions from as early as six weeks with NO exceptions, even for rape or incest? Ridiculous. As a foster parent, my mother once looked after a girl of 15 who’d been raped by her stepfather. She had an abortion at nine weeks – how could this not be considered just or legal? Amanda THE MAG TO BAG I recently celebrated my 70th birthday. I’ve always enjoyed magazines, but feel compelled to say Grazia is the only one I now buy. The fashion (which I still love – my…

I WRITE 10 DAYS after Texas enforced the most restrictive abortion laws in the US – legislation that makes abortion illegal after six weeks, when few people even realise they’re pregnant, and plops a $10k bounty on anyone helping a woman get an illegal abortion, even if they’re, say, an Uber driver, giving her a lift; and also? You don’t even have to know the pregnant woman to cash in! There’s an anonymous tip line! When this new law kicked in, social media and news outlets erupted in anger. TikTok users flooded the tip line with bogus deets; much reference to The Handmaid’s Tale was made. But the Outrage Cycle moves fast and now, as I write, hardly anyone’s angry about it on the socials any more. By the time…

BEN AND JEN . Jen and Ben. Bennifer. The names that have been on everyone’s lips in the past month (hey, who are we kidding, for the past six months!). Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are a Hollywood couple who know how to give the public what they want – if what they want is huge public displays of affection, extravagant outings and impossibly good looks. Which, of course, we do. September has seen the couple make their first red carpet appearance since they reunited, at the Venice premiere for Ben’s new film The Last Duel (the Ridley Scott-directed project Ben co-wrote with Matt Damon, which also stars Jodie Comer and Adam Driver). They also created the most 2021 of 2021 moments when they posed for an internet-breaking photograph at…

PHOTOS: GETTY SINCE THE #METOO movement in Hollywood and fashion exploded four years ago, many have wondered whether the fashion industry’s reckoning would bring about meaningful change. Now, thanks to the courage of a group of former models, the movement has had a second wave. Famous ’90s model Carré Otis is among 15 women to have accused Gérald Marie, the former European boss of the Elite modelling agency, of sexual misconduct – allegations Marie, the ex-husband of Linda Evangelista, strenuously denies. On 7 September, Carré, 52, united with five of those women, all ex-models, for a compelling press conference in Paris. The former face of Guess and Calvin Klein claims she was trafficked to Paris and repeatedly raped by Marie, now 71, from the age of 17. She was supported…

YOU’RE HAPPY THE world has opened up again; of course you are. It’s been wonderful to reconnect with your beloved family and friends. Only… it’s A Lot. And sometimes, you’re not sure how to be. You feel rusty: your train of thought falters and your opening gambits have all the finesse of a toddler starting nursery. As for your tone, it seems to swing from unexpected soul-baring to a false jollity you’re not sure you even feel. Maybe you recognise someone in these post-pan character types. Maybe you even are one… AWKWARD ALISON She loved lockdown, and really can’t get back into the swing of this ‘other people’ thing. Try as she might to listen to her friends, she can’t stop talking over them, interjecting her opinion on Bennifer (are…

1. THE SUPER LONG SWEATER You might call it a maxi jumper dress; we prefer to call it a chic blanket you can leave the house in. Warning: you won’t want to wear anything else this winter. 2 THE STOMPER PLATFORM Remain at least five inches off the floor at all times and stomp to your next soirée. 3. THE HI-TOP Thought you were done with trainers? Think again. The new kicks are understated, up-for-anything and surprisingly chic. 4. LONGLINE LEATHER You’re torn between being a badass rebel and a polished grown-up – you need a buttery soft leather coat. 5. TIN FOIL TROUSERS Behold the triumphant return of waist-down dressing. Nothing says ‘Bye, Zoom!’ like metallic pants. 6. THE LITTLE RED DRESS If Little Red Riding Hood was…

‘I BELIEVE IN EXCELLENCE. I WANTED SOMETHING BRILLIANT’ THE DOOR TO Hair Lounge, Charlotte Mensah’s iconic Portobello Road salon, is open. Inside are starkly beautiful people – models readying for a shoot, a mother-and-daughter pair in for their usual appointment and Charlotte’s team of stylists. It’s a luscious space: polished hardwood floors, leather chairs and, at the centre behind a desk, Charlotte herself. Charlotte is a multi award-winning hairstylist, entrepreneur and author. Already a three-times winner of the Afro Hairdresser of the Year award, in 2018 she was inducted into the British Hairdressing Awards Hall of Fame, becoming the first Black woman to receive this accolade. ‘She’s a pioneer,’ says Funmi Fetto, beauty director of The Observer. ‘She’s infiltrated spaces that a lot of people of colour haven’t been able…

PHOTOGRAPHS CHRIS TUBBS IT’S AN UNMISTAKABLY British, washout summer’s day when I arrive at Lucinda Chambers’ west London home. Shoes wet from the rain, it seems only polite to ask if I should take them off. ‘Oh no,’ she exclaims, cheerfully no-nonsense and ushering me through to the kitchen, where pastries and coffee wait. ‘It’s not that kind of house.’ What kind of house it is is a joyful slice of bohemia that has just the right amount of brilliantly bonkers charm. It’s like Charleston Farmhouse transported to Shepherd’s Bush, slightly dishevelled in an insouciantly elegant way. Paintings and plates jostle for space on colourful walls; clashing cushions are everywhere. Chairs don’t match and the kitchen table is propped up on books. If it sounds busy, it is. But there’s…

WRITTEN AND DIRECTED by the talented, Oscar-winning Julie Delpy, On The Verge follows the domestic life of celebrated French chef Justine (Delpy), hanging on to her reputation, family and friendship group in the fashionable suburbs of LA. Justine is trying to write a book, weaving her culinary skills through life experiences. Her monstrous boss Jerry (Giovanni Ribisi) expects something cheerful, uplifting and European. The result is less Julia Childs, more Kitchen Nightmares as Justine is consumed by life’s glaring disappointments as she attempts to get them on paper. Delpy’s work is a sophisticated meditation on hanging on to being chic in middle-age. She is not here to judge, only to observe the brief moments for respite and humour. Her characterisation of Justine – beleaguered but not ruined by life –…

ACTION ON DICK PICS May I congratulate you and Laura Bates for campaigning to criminalise cyberflashing (‘Dick pics teach girls that men can force sex on them without consent’, 20 Sept). I’ve just signed the petition. I have personally been a victim of this and, as a transgender woman, find it just as abusive as everyone else. Why someone wishes to harass me with unwanted messages and images, just because I am female and there is nothing to stop them, is quite frankly disgusting. I realise that many of us experience this problem on an almost weekly basis and it really is time that it was stopped, with the people responsible held to justice. Sharon…

1. Up BOBBY CANNAVALE Best name in acting (give or take Claes Bang), partner of Rose Byrne, star of Nine Perfect Strangers, which is getting snobby negs critical comparisons with White Lotus, but why? It’s fab! 2. Non-mover REGÉ-JEAN PAGE The artist formerly known as The Duke/our main reason for carrying on through the bleakest segments of Lockdown 3. Announced he’s ‘respectfully exited’ the Bridgerton WhatsApp group. 3. New in DIANA TROUT As we dive deeper into blissful Comedy Central sitcom Younger, the DT quite unexpectedly wins our hearts, with particular reference to her cabaret act and her Dolly Parton karaoke. 4. Up SARAH SILVERMAN Partly because we never got over her song, I’m F** king Matt Damon; also because we’ve just got heavily into her podcast. She does edge and…

Comfort as only Tom Ford can (AKA ready to party). The takeaway from this joyful outing? Not all track pants are born equal. Already a fashion insider favourite, old Celine alumnus Peter Do’s runway debut was one of the hottest tickets of the week. PHOTOS: GETTY At Moschino, Jeremy Scott gave us ladies who lunch – on acid. We’d love to see more of model Aaron Rose Philip (right) please. Sergio Hudson had Kamala Harris and Michelle Obama’s vote, dressing them for the Inauguration. Fingers crossed this blue suit is next. If Proenza Schouler’s super-fringed, sunshine yellow dress doesn’t spark joy – what will? Stuart Vevers looked to the progressive attitude of Coach’s first head designer, Bonnie Cashin. All-American classics remixed for now. Indigenous model Quannah Chasinghorse was one of…

AND WE’RE OFF! New York is always the first stop on the big fashion month roadshow. This season, its jam-packed calendar didn’t just signal an exuberant return to a more ‘normal’ style of catwalk – complete with front rows and iconic settings like the Empire State building – but also the comeback of street style. The city’s best-dressed showed off a more experimental side than we’re used to seeing in the Big Apple, ramping up their particular brand of pared-back polish with bare skin, prints and patchwork. These were the trends to take away this autumn. PATTERN PARTY New York’s street-stylers dialled up their prints to punchy, with full-body immersion in exuberant stripes or splashy florals. Just add gold hoops and snake-print accessories for a throw-on-and-go feel. XL TAILORING As…

TODAY, HIS INITIALS are iconic, his name synonymous with luxury and associated with covetable logos and designer heavyweights including Nicolas Ghesquière and Virgil Abloh. But Louis Vuitton, born in 1821, was also a pioneer (his first innovation was putting a waterproof canvas on his trunk, making it more convenient for travel). So, to celebrate his 200th birthday, Vuitton’s visual image studio gave 200 visionaries carte blanche to treat his greatest invention, the trunk, as a three-dimensional blank canvas for their creativity, continuing the maison’s reputation for exciting artistic collaborations. The resulting projects have formed window displays in stores around the world and are as unique as the visionaries who conceived them. ‘We were trying to include a more diverse spectrum, with scientists, astronauts, anthropologists and poets. Rather than being a…

WHEN MARCO DE VINCENZO was a child, he would find it upsetting to go shopping with his mother. ‘As a plus-size woman, she didn’t find anything fun, anything beautiful in the stores,’ he explains. ‘She had the impression that fashion wasn’t for her.’ That was just one of the reasons that he jumped at the opportunity to design a capsule collection for Marina Rinaldi (he wanted to create something that contrasted from the experience he remembered and ‘make a happy moment. An experience that means fun, love!’). The Italian label is most often described as a ‘plus-size brand’, but that’s a woefully inadequate description – what it offers are luxurious, elegant clothes that just happen to go up to size 28. Indeed, the Marina Rinaldi ethos has always been that…

PHOTOGRAPH SUKI DHANDA HAIR AND MAKE-UP: VIORELA COMAN AT GARY REPRESENTS USING LIVING PROOF HAIRCARE “THROUGH THESE FRIENDSHIPS I WAS ABLE TO RECONSTRUCT MYSELF, FRAGMENT BY FRAGMENT” I WASN’T ALONE in the rowboat on the day that I scattered my husband’s ashes, three years ago. As I cradled the willow urn tightly between my knees, my best friend Andy rotated the oars, slicing the water back and forth. A silent presence on the river bend that gave me comfort and reassurance as I dipped my hand into the wicker and released handfuls of sparkling stardust trails on to the surface below. We’re often told that our friendships will inevitably loosen and drift as we get older, nudged to the outer periphery of bimonthly catch-ups and hurried WhatsApp messages. But for…

“Things we promise never to moan about ever again: feet that hurt in heels. Coat check queues. Getting in and out of a jumpsuit. Doing our make-up in the back of a cab. Questions we promise never to ask: can I get away with this? Is it ‘too much’? Does my bum look big in this? As we take tentative steps – in heels or flats – it’s time to celebrate the joy of clothes once more. To see and be seen. There are no rules any more, apart from one: enjoy it. Fashion’s big return calls for big energy to match – because isn’t every day worth making an effort for?”…

LOOKING FORWARD TO Misfits: A Personal Manifesto by Michaela Coel. I felt seen and inspired while watching the actor and screenwriter’s MacTaggart Lecture that led to the book. CATWALK MOMENT The best elements of British autumnal style, cleverly mashed up in a single look. LOOKING FORWARD TO I will go anywhere chef Max Rocha works. His debut restaurant, Café Cecilia in Hackney, draws inspiration from cooking with his mum, growing up in Ireland. CATWALK MOMENT The colour, the volume, the print, the casting! Marc showed at a time when we desperately needed inspiration – and got me out of loungewear.

PHOTOS: GETTY EMMA RADUCANU’S US Open win was everything that she had wanted. The 18-year-old from south London, who was a 400-1 outsider pre-Wimbledon, somehow surpassed all the odds to get to the final of the Grand Slam tournament... and win. It was a fairy-tale moment; the teenager who’d just finished her A-levels made history by becoming the first qualifier ever to win a women’s or men’s major. It won her £1.8m in prize money, more than a million new Instagram followers and made her a household name overnight. But because Emma is still a teenager, none of that had been on her mind during the match. Instead, after losing her AirPods, her main thought had been, ‘If you win, you can buy yourself another pair of AirPods.’ This is…

PHOTOS: RYAN PFLUGER/AUGUST, PANDORA EVEN ASHLEY GRAHAM has her off days. Or ‘funk days’ as she calls them. A passionate advocate of the power of affirmations (‘I am gold. I am brilliant. I am beautiful. I am worthy of all and I love you’ are her go-tos), she admits she skips them on those days ‘because I feel like I’m straight up lying to myself ’. Instead she lets herself indulge in a bit of mindless TV. It’s just the type of kind, relatable confession that has established Ashley as a role model as much as a supermodel. ‘I’m passionate about keeping it real!’ she says. Real for her, like the rest of us, however, has been highly surreal these past 18 months. Not just because of a pandemic you…

15 AUGUST There’s chaos outside my apartment and from my window I see crowds fleeing and cars honking. I check Twitter and read that the Taliban have taken the city where I live, Kabul. Outside, Taliban soldiers have replaced my building security. Everyone knew this day was coming but no one predicted it would happen so fast. Friends across town tell me they’re rushing for the airport. I start getting panicked calls from family telling me to get to the airport as quickly as well. I’m not going, though. The airport is a deathtrap and I’ve already fled Afghanistan, where I was born, once that way – in 1989, when I was four and civil war broke out after the Soviets left. I still have haunting flashbacks to that terrifying…

It’s impossible to make it through a scroll of pop culture in recent years and not see the proverbial eight-inch-high platform bootprint of Harris Reed. Harry Styles in an outsize satin ball-hoop skirt. Selena Gomez in a flying saucer-sized hat. Lil Nas X in an enormous silk moire bow. Harris’s stamp is as recognisable as it is unmissable. To understand the young designer behind some of pop culture’s most standout fashion moments in recent memory, you have to know his backstory, which is as compelling and attention-grabbing as his clothing. In a study into the psychology of superhero origin stories, clinical psychologist Robin Rosenberg wrote that every good origin story has three elements: adversity, a sense of destiny and chance. Harris describes his with the endearing charisma of a raconteur.…

PHOTOS: GETTY, SHUTTERSTOCK FROM THE OUTSIDE, the Delaneys are a perfect family. Joy and Stan are happily married. They have four kids and built a successful tennis school together before retiring into a life of suburban bliss. But, over the course of the novel, this shiny veneer starts to dull. We meet the Delaneys when their children have all grown up and moved out. The family home, once so full of life, feels empty and quiet, and a creeping sense of boredom and bitterness looms. When Joy suddenly goes missing, suspicion falls on her husband. The perfect family? It simply doesn’t exist. Lisa Moriarty says true crime podcasts were a big inspiration for her latest novel, Apples Never Fall. She was struck by multiple stories of women going missing and…

1 Support other women in life and work. This has always been important to me. At the beginning of my career, I was in the girl group Mis-Teeq. That was all about being a team player and there is nothing more beautiful than seeing people align with one another. There is this negative trait that tries to creep into humanity, which is jealousy. It only does damage to yourself. I’ve found that in the moments where I’ve been able to be genuinely happy for somebody else’s success, I empower myself in that way, too. 2 Understand that families come in different shapes and sizes. When I was growing up, I’d look at a family that had mum, dad and children all together and feel envious that I never had that.…
