THERE’S A CERTAIN poeticism about rapper Little Simz hitting superstar status in 2021. Her slow-burn success is proof that, post-pandemic, we’re falling for women with strong voices who stay true to what feels right to them. Plus, she knows the power of full-on fashion – as demonstrated in our shoot on page 72. Elsewhere in this, our biannual Luxe issue, we’ve been thinking about what counts as a luxury now. Some suggestions: scoring a stylish steal you know you’ll wear forever (page 26), or a night in front of the latest ‘Executive Trash’ TV (page 142). Whatever luxuries you find in the issue, I hope you enjoy it. @hattie_brett / feedback@ graziamagazine.co.uk…

“The details emerging from the deadly crush at the Astroworld festival in Texas have been shocking and came with grim echoes of the Hillsborough disaster – from the survivors’ stories of being trapped in the crowd, to early attempts on social media to blame those attending for what unfolded. Let us remember this event should have been about music and joy, not losing loved ones. With no set age limit, some guests were children: John Hilgert, the youngest to die, was just 14, while a nine-year-old boy remains in a coma. With at least eight dead and hundreds injured, we must all stand with those left behind as they seek answers and justice.”…

BEAR NECESSITY Max Mara’s teddy coat is a classic for a reason. One day, I’ll own this and wear it with everything. 70th anniversary Teddy Coat, £2,715, maxmara.com HOMEGROWN I love the fact that this jumper is sourced from three counties – Lancashire, Cumbria and Yorkshire – meaning it’s born, raised and made in England. £325, navygrey.co SUNNY DELIGHTS Sunglasses-and-scarf weather is my favourite. After a dreary summer, I’m investing in Chanel shades and hoping for some winter sun. £420, Chanel GOOD JEANS It takes a lot to make me cheat on my Levi’s Ribcage, but the brand’s new collaboration with Indian actor Deepika Padukone might just tempt me. £120, levis.com VELVET CRUSH A velvet suit is my fail-safe for party season. This year, I’m opting for a festive forest…

AS WE grow more aware of the need to shop mindfully, our habits tend towards two schools of thought: stylish steals and smart investments. Despite the price difference, both are made with longevity in mind, whether it’s a pair of striped silk pyjamas that will constitute an act of self-care, or a single-breasted grey coat that will be your best friend forever when cold weather strikes. Start making your wish lists. GREY SUIT H&M’s take on power tailoring looks so much more expensive than £75, thanks to its textured bouclé weave and decorative buttons. AVIATOR JACKET Aviators are having a moment, but are also a wardrobe perennial during winter. PEARL NECKLACE Look for a piece that's timeless but with an edge, like this asymmetric collar style from Mathe. SILK SCARF…

PHOTOS: BACKGRID, GETTY, @CAMILLECHARRIERE IT’S ONLY RECENTLY become #sweaterweather, but one jumper has already emerged as the season’s ‘It’ knit. No, not the sweater vest, cashmere bra or cropped cardi, but something much more suited to the cosy needs of now: the dad jumper. With its zippered roll neck, this knit is a practical power piece (thank actor Oscar Isaac and his viral wardrobe of dad knits in Scenes From A Marriage and Succession’s Logan Roy). The fashion set, naturally, has zhushed up versions so that their dad jumpers look less suited to the golf course than an autumnal moment on Instagram (Kitri’s is embellished with a pearl zip-pull; Jacquemus’ sits snugly on the navel). Wear yours with silk trousers and nothing underneath (à la Gigi Hadid).…

PG TIPS, chocolate Hobnobs, Rolos (actually ‘all British sweets’) are just some of the things that the actor Annabelle Wallis misses about living in the UK. ‘And British humour, they just don’t get me here, there’s a lot of faux pas rolling around. There’s something so incredible about living in London. It’s a city like no other – you can be whatever you want to be, you can dress however you want to dress, you can fully express yourself and test the boundaries of who you are. There’s no judgement. It makes for great art, great fashion, great creativity.’ Transplanting to LA hasn’t done anything to diminish Oxford-born Annabelle’s creativity – or style – however. This year she has appeared in horror flick Malignant and will shortly be seen alongside…

THIS IS A BIG announcement for me – but I have made peace with being bitched about. It’s only taken me 42 years. But it feels like an important aspect of friendships, which are so often about holding on, but then also very often about letting go. Being bitched about by beloveds is my new jam. And it feels good! I’ll tell you the turning point. A month or so ago, I was on holiday with three of my oldest friends, and one morning we found ourselves discussing what we were going to do that day. I wanted to go to the pub (it was Saturday!), but they didn’t (shocking – call themselves friends of mine?) and things got a bit tense. When I went to the loo I had…

The Matrix mac IT’S SLEEK, it means business and it’s swiped straight from Keanu Reeves’ Matrix wardrobe. Long, glossy leather coats are the one thing this season’s rebels want to wear. WEAR IT WITH The not-quite-naked dress OH LÀ LÀ. Good underwear at the ready – semi-sheer dresses are having a moment. Big pants make them (slightly) less scary. Not for the faint-hearted, but she who dares, wins. WEAR IT WITH Blazers over eveningwear YOU’RE A cool girl, but you’re grown up enough to know that it’s not a good idea to go out without a coat. An oversized, boxy blazer adds a swish of tomboyish attitude to your spangly dress. WEAR IT WITH Crème caramel crush WHAT COULD be more luxurious than a camel coat? How about a whole…

How many unsuitable beauty products sit unused in your drawer? My skincare and make-up routine is embarrassingly minimal, and yet I’ve still found myself with drawers and wicker baskets full of products I’ve used only a handful of times. I have an array of tried-and-tested base layers that have proved either too pale, too powdery or too perfumed – and now lay dormant in their plastic packaging, like the fast fashion of foundation. I’ve bought lipsticks online that didn’t suit me, and others that were too matte, each pigment clinging to each flake of chill-bitten winter skin as if its life depended on it. I have moisturisers that gave me breakouts; cleansers that dried my skin; shampoos that didn’t lather properly. Imagine if we could eradicate this by buying products…

For statement eyes, pack MAC Paint Pot in Born to Beam, £17.50, on to your lid with a fingertip. More of a minimalist? Make-up artist Natalie James suggests using an angled brush to trace a lash-hugging line. Chanel Les Beiges Sheer Highlighting Fluid in Or Ivoire, £40, can be worn under foundation for a gentle glow, on top as a highlighter, or instead of as a luminescent, barely-there base. For an ethereal glow, Warren Dowdall, senior pro artist at Bobbi Brown, loves the brand’s Luxe Illuminating Duo Soft Bronze, £37. ‘The light reflective pearls in this never look ashy or silvery against skin,’ he says. A gold-flecked lip balm, Tom Ford Soleil Balm Frost, £44, is enriched with chamomile essential oil to hydrate and nourish chapped winter lips. Laura Mercier…

SENSATIONAL SERVEWARE ALI HEWSON Ali graduated from Camberwell College of the Arts but only realised her designs when she moved to Norfolk and could have her own studio. ‘I spend a lot of time in museum collections looking at historical pieces, which are a source of endless inspiration,’ she says. ‘I normally make to order to reduce waste, and have a strict system of recycling clay and materials to reuse in the studio.’ Laura loves: ‘The combination of traditional-style patterns with modern shapes. The platters are perfect for serving a bright salad.’ STYLISH STORAGE OUR LOVELY GOODS Emmanuel and Ebi Sinteh’s Nigerian heritage is the inspiration for their Aberdeen-based brand. ‘Becoming parents to our two girls made us want to create a safe, nurturing environment, one that also protects and…

Here, writer Candice Carty-Williams shares hers… 1 If you don’t ask, you don’t get. You have to vocalise what you want, or else you’ll never get it. I’m a shy person and I’m not someone who can readily vocalise their needs. I think it’s the fear of rejection, right? People who are very confident just assume they’re going to get what they want – so go for it. The people who don’t have that confidence settle with what they’ve got, because they’re scared they’ll get a no. Rejection is scary and I think you have to understand that it’s part of the package of asking for…

Have your say… Email us at feedback@graziamagazine.co.uk ■ Find us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram @GraziaUK THE KIDS QUESTION Thanks for the article Telling women to remember to have a baby isn’t ‘empowering’ (1 Nov). I’m often asked when I want to have babies, or ‘Are you considering your next step?’ I am married but I don’t want kids. I’d like to have conversations that start, ‘Have you read anything interesting recently?’ Why must I answer over and over the same question about kids? My husband is not asked about it. Arantxa Your article on the fertility seminars at Murray Edwards College was a jarring read.

THANK YOU FOR joining me for the official launch of CASG, the Campaign Against Shit Gifts. CASG is a brave, necessary movement, one inspired by the looming horror of made up consumer-frenzy-fest Black Friday, the less made up but no less consumery impulse of Christmas, the terrifying aftertaste of COP26, and the stinging offence of Other People’s Poor Taste. CASG aims to mitigate the negs impact of the above with one simple action – or rather, one simple inaction – namely: do not buy that shit gift! The gaudy bit of plastic that will, at best, raise a droll smile at the moment of unwrapping, one intended (the droll smiler – a close friend’s husband, a Secret Santa pick, a personal trainer – hopes) to distract from the sensation of…

PHOTOS: SHUTTERSTOCK, GETTY 1 WHEN ADELE STEPPED back into the spotlight after a too-long hiatus, her voice wasn’t the only thing that bounced back bigger and better than ever. There was also the small – or rather, huge – matter of her hair. Thick, shiny and unashamedly glamorous, it was the polar opposite of the lank lockdown locks that most of us had been sporting during the pandemic, a period of history that saw hair maintenance sink to an all-time low. If 2019 was all about the Long Shag, 2020 was all about the Can’t Be Shagged, a grim and grimy confluence of unwashed hair, untended roots and split ends that’s best forgotten. And now, thanks to Adele, we can. Our queen has spoken, and she has decreed that the…

PHOTO: OLIVIA RICHARDSON IMAGINE IF PHOEBE Waller-Bridge and Kate Bush had a baby, and that baby was an album. That gives you a hint of the scope of Prioritise Pleasure by Self Esteem, the new album that will make you laugh, cry and – importantly – dance. Self Esteem is the stage name of Rebecca Lucy Taylor. Her deadpan delivery of penetrating observations about modern relationships, coupled with the heart-soaring energy of the music and sexy choreography of her live shows, is ‘like if Beyoncé was from Rotherham’, says Rebecca with a self-aware grin. Sipping a glass of white wine in a pub near her London home, high on a blizzard of five-star reviews and declarations of ‘album of the year’, she has the delirious, exhausted air of a new…

WE HAVEN’T HAD a new series of property porn reality show Selling Sunset in over a year, yet this summer, a story from the centre of the hit Netflix show sent shockwaves rippling through its fans. No, it wasn’t that Davina Portraz still hasn’t sold that $75m house (though that is true), it was the news that Chrishell Stause and her boss, Jason, owner of The Oppenheim Group, are an item. Taking inspiration from Jennifer Lopez – who confirmed she was back with Ben Affleck in a holiday post – Chrishell, 40, announced the news in a ‘photo dump’ on Instagram in July, captioned ‘the J-Lo effect’, while the pair were on holiday with the rest of the cast in Italy. The pairing might have come as a shock to…

WE NEED MALE ALLIES I wholeheartedly agreed with Camilla’s right – men need to fight for women’s safety (15 Nov). Creeps who harass or assault women aren’t looking to change their behaviour, but there are a lot of good men out there who can help ease the burden women feel. For example, recognising that wariness of you is not personal, keeping your distance, offering to escort female friends to places, intervening when women are being harassed. Be an example and mentor to younger boys, stop flirting if it is obvious the woman is not interested. These are just some ways men can help. The Duchess of Cornwall was spot on when she said, ‘Rapists are not born, they are constructed.’ R McMullen…

AS CHEERY PRINCE HARRY and Meghan Markle – in a red Carolina Herrera gown – stepped on to the red carpet of the Salute to Freedom gala at the Intrepid Museum in New York earlier this month, it was business as usual. Yet, behind the scenes, there was an explosive drama playing out that was threatening their reputation – and any salvageable relationship with the royal family – forever. Just hours before the event, which was on the eve of Veteran’s Day in the US and Armistice Day in the UK, dramatic news emerged from a London court regarding the case between Meghan and Associated Newspapers. The publisher of The Mail On Sunday is challenging a ruling from earlier this year that its publication of a letter by Meghan to…

PHOTOS: GETTY EARLIER THIS MONTH, you might have seen the news that my contract at Hollyoaks was terminated because I’d set up an OnlyFans account. While I’ve had an incredible amount of support, which I’m very grateful for, the past few days have been overwhelming and stressful. I feel like I haven’t left fight-or-flight mode. Being sacked is not something anyone wants to add to their CV and, initially, I was worried the news could have negative implications for my acting career. It was also a huge shock. When I set up the account and moved my bikini and lingerie content from Instagram to OnlyFans, I didn’t think for one moment it would compromise my career on a show I’ve starred in since 1996, joining as Mandy when I was…

PHOTOS: INSTAGRAM/MARIAHCAREY I’VE LONG BELIEVED Mariah Carey to be a visionary born years – if not centuries – ahead of her time. People laughed when a 2017 appearance on Good Morning Britain revealed her to have erected her Christmas tree in early October. Naysayers scoffed when she later confirmed that she keeps her decorations up until 4 July. But now? Now it seems that the zeitgeist has finally caught up with the elusive chanteuse™. In previous years, any talk of Christmas pre-December was the sole preserve of excitable toddlers and the kind of swivel-eyed lunatics who stockpile mince pie-scented toilet cleaner (show me a person whose parents never tutted at ‘Christmas coming earlier every year’, and I’ll show you an orphan). But this year is different. This year, it appears…

Hardballing: Knowing exactly what you want and not being afraid to say it. It takes guts to do it, but this radically frank reset might be just the refresh our dating lives need. Slow dating: Got RSI from all that swipe-swipe-swiping? Slowing things down – actually getting to know someone before you sleep with them – is one way to see if that person is worth main character status. Benching: Aka keeping your options open. You like someone just enough to keep stringing them along, but not enough to commit. Not nice to be on the receiving end of, so don’t do it to someone else. Soft launching: You have to admire the ambiguity of a move that simultaneously says, ‘Respect my privacy’ and ‘I HAVE A BOYFRIEND!’ This is…

AT THIS TIME of year, a decadent diet isn’t so much tolerated as actively encouraged. For those still intent on getting their greens, however, fashion has an easy (and stylish) solution. Pops of green – from Kelly to Kermit – add a refreshing twist to any look. The symbolism is obvious; it’s optimistic and indicative of new starts. So what are you waiting for? Green means go, go, go.

‘ALMASIKA CELEBRATES the stories, symbols and forms that unite people across cultures and generations, through fine jewellery that combines art, design and storytelling. I’m interested in those overlapping circles in cultures. To create a sort of… universal meaning that can be felt as something personal by any human, whatever their culture.’ So says Catherine Sarr – born in Paris, now based in Chicago via stints in London and Abu Dhabi – of the jewellery brand she founded in 2014. A hit with Jodie Turner-Smith and Zoë Kravitz, fans don’t just love the abstract, organic lines but the symbolism (new collection Sagesse reflects on wisdom). ‘[They are] attracted by our distinct designs, deep meaning and a responsible value chain,’ she says. Jewellery is an emotional purchase and Catherine gets that. ‘I…

THE BIG TV launches of the week are a double-whammy return of shows that simultaneously confounded and defined our pandemic lockdowns. Lock up your house cats as Tiger King 2, the demented tale of wild-cat rearing in central belt America, returns to mass audience gasps. At the loftier, more razzy end of the social spectrum, breath is bated for the property dames of Bel Air. That other Netflix titan, Selling Sunset, is back too. This is a fruitful fortnight if your telly thing is Executive Trash (ET), a genre starting to rule streaming platforms with an iron fist similar to Marvel Universe’s control of cinema. It’s all very well having arthouse directors shipped in to direct provocative, edgy drama but, when we think of Netflix, we think of it mostly…
