Hello! Welcome to our spring beauty issue. I think it’s the best one yet. First, would you just look at our cover? Zoë Kravitz is so stunning, so cool, and so thoroughly herself that we decided to run five covers of her wearing strikingly distinct styles of makeup paired with the dreamiest couture. Thank you to Anthony Maule for the exquisite pictures. This issue is about celebrating the beauty of different people, both for their physical appearance and for what they have to say. Olympic figure skater Adam Rippon, for example, came to the world’s attention for his skills on the ice but kept us watching for his charisma and humor. (I was at the fashion Elie Saab hat. shows in Europe during the Winter Olympics and Gucci coat. so wished he’d been sitting with me instead.) Check out the great profile of him by Christopher Bagley. I met actress Gugu Mbatha-Raw at our offices a few months back and was captivated not just by her face but by her interest in “wearing many hats” on the screen. Then and there we came up with the shoot concept (and my favorite picture in May, above, left). Also in this month’s mix is the beloved Judith Light, looking divine—and flexible!—in red leather Calvin Klein. And finally, the gorgeous model Taylor Hill goes to Hollywood (Boulevard) with not one but two Chewbaccas. Speaking of other species, there’s nothing more beautiful than our animal friends. I want to be clear that InStyle does not photograph fur—nor do we accept fur advertising. How thrilling that the fashion industry is beginning to embrace fur-free alternatives. Here’s to this dear chinchilla living a long and lovely life. Enjoy the issue!

Kravitz in a Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello dress, Marla Aaron hoops (all other earrings, her own), and Tiffany & Co. rings.
She is known for her super-chill demeanor and effortless approach to style. So, as expected, Zoë Kravitz kept cool at our New York City shoot, sipping green tea and swaying along to the Black Panther soundtrack. Yet when it came time to play dress-up, the actress gave us a true taste of her dramatic range, confidently posing in overthe-top accessories like a feathered magenta hat and black lace veil. She took a special liking to a Dior Haute Couture face mask that gave off major Batman vibes. But though the look was very superhero, Kravitz was more interested in channeling DC Comics’ resident villain: “This is my best Joker smile,” she said, laughing. At the end of the night, Kravitz left behind the statement pieces—as well as her newfound alter ego—and calmly strolled back out onto the streets of Gotham. 28 I n S T Y L E M AY 2 0 1 8

Designers’ Model Crushes
As the old saying goes (or perhaps should have gone), behind every successful designer there is a model. So we asked some of our favorite fashion creators to answer this question: Who do you love? BY ERIC WILSON
Major model moments at the fall collections, from left: Irina Shayk in Bottega Veneta, Joan Smalls in Tom Ford, Natalia Vodianova in Versace, Cara Delevingne in Burberry, and Gigi Hadid in Versace
FASHION STATEMENT
I
s there really any question that big models with big personalities are back? For a while there, after the turn of the millennium, it seemed that any sign of personal expression had gone entirely out of fashion among the young women who walked the runways. But now hardly a show goes by that doesn’t encourage the audience to pay as much attention to the girls as the clothes, and that is largely the result of eforts in recent years to celebrate diversity in the industry whenever possible. Suddenly, it’s safe to love models again. Perhaps the most obvious example of this change of attitude comes from Brandon Maxwell, the young star of the New York collections who cast his February show with a breathtaking lineup of confident women, including faces both fresh and familiar—Maria Borges, Karlie Kloss, Riley Montana, Shanelle Nyasiase, Joan Smalls, and many more. Wherever you looked during the fall collections, which not incidentally celebrated the style and spirit of the 1980s, there were wonderful appearances by supermodels of seasons past, best exemplified by Natalia Vodianova, Raquel Zimmermann, and a sultry Imaan Hammam tearing up the runway at Versace. Irina Shayk didn’t disappoint at Bottega Veneta either, and Cara Delevingne charmed at Burberry, wearing a rainbow-striped faux fur as part of an LGBTQ+ tribute by departing chief creative oicer Christopher Bailey. There were weird moments too, such as when Russian model Unia Pakhomova opened the Gucci show, carrying a replica of her own head. And there were sweet moments as well: when models in the Sonia Rykiel show laughed and danced in honor of the house’s 50th anniversary, and when Gigi Hadid led the Tod’s show while clutching an outrageously adorable puppy. “Wasn’t it a beautiful show?” asked Bella Hadid the next day. “There were all these puppies backstage, and it was just the cutest thing.” Also cute? The fact that designers are citing models as muses and aligning themselves with those who share their values. Here, they identify their latest model crushes.
“I find Kaia Gerber so well-mannered and hardworking. This, of course, is due to mama Cindy, who raised her kids with Midwestern values even though they were living in Malibu.” —JEREMY SCOTT, creative director, Moschino

“Erin Wasson is the modern idea of a woman who isn’t defined by her man. She’s her own force to be reckoned with and inspires confidence throughout the modeling world today.” —LAURA KIM & FERNANDO GARCIA, co-founders of Monse
“I love Vittoria Ceretti’s sophisticated, elegant, and mysterious beauty. She is classic yet modern and represents a new generation of Italian beauties in the world.” —ALBERTA FERRETTI
“Giedre Dukauskaite is the most tenured, timeless, and versatile of models working right now. She adds a strong, confident yet feminine and joyful twist to whatever she wears.” —PAUL ANDREW, women’s creative director, Salvatore Ferragamo

FASHION STATEMENT
“I love Adwoa Aboah because she represents a new generation of models using their position to support other women. In addition to her beauty, her strength and her passion really stand out.” —MARIA GRAZIA CHIURI, artistic director, Dior
“Aside from their physical beauty, Bella and Gigi Hadid are so absolutely genuine and just … real. That can be hard to come across. They are also incredibly kind to everyone, and their energy is so pure and infectious.” —PRABAL GURUNG
“What’s most inspiring about Sara Grace Wallerstedt is the otherworldly quality she projects when trying on the clothes. Her look transports you and gives you something completely new.” —ANNA SUI
“I have so much respect for Hunter Schafer’s courage in her personal activism. Teenage years are hard enough, but to be the face of a campaign against transphobic bills like North Carolina’s HB2 and speak as eloquently as she does on these issues on the national stage, all while pursuing a modeling career, that deserves some serious love.” —JONATHAN SIMKHAI

“Cara Taylor walked in and immediately lightened the mood for me. She tried on her dress and told me she felt like a princess, and then we ate chicken nuggets and had a good laugh.” —BRANDON MAXWELL

MAX MARA MSGM
ALEXANDRA SHIPP: Evan, you’re a great actress. And when I think of red-carpet glam, you come to mind. You’re an original! EVAN RACHEL WOOD: Thanks. My love of fashion came from my love of theater. When I put on new clothes, I get a new energy. AS: I started in theater too. Now I’m just trying to figure out the diference between my version of glamour and other people’s. ERW: I get that. When I was starting out, there was this standard of beauty—super tan, big boobs, low-rise jeans. I never fit that mold. I was in Kurt Cobain T-shirts and Converse. So I had to go of the beaten path to find clothes I was comfortable in. AS: I love that you’re not afraid of a three-piece suit. ERW: Last year was fun—I wore only suits. The challenge was to keep reinventing that. My favorite was the Altuzarra at the Golden Globes [bottom, right], which paid homage to Marlene Dietrich. AS: I love when something looks so masculine and feminine. Right after I shaved my head, I wore this silk tuxedo vest as a dress [second from top, left]. I felt like a businesswoman and a badass. ERW: The more you feel like a badass, the more you look like one. Even when I’m shopping at Target, I make the leap over to the men’s section. You realize quickly that they have better stuf. AS: My best friend is trans, and we were just saying, “Wouldn’t it be great if stores didn’t separate men’s and women’s sections?” ERW: Yeah, and if they ofered more sizes, your gender wouldn’t matter because you could just buy what you like. AS: Totally. Has your style been influenced by any of your characters? During X-Men, I got really into Storm’s shoulder pads. ERW: I’ve embraced my inner mountain woman since Westworld. Cowboy boots, boot-cut jeans, flannels ... [laughs] AS: Have you been to Sedona? The food is amazing, and so is the shopping. It’s the perfect place for a modern cowgirl. ERW: Yes! I always go to recharge and ride ATVs in the desert. AS: It’s the best. Last thing: Your makeup at the Met Ball last year was so fire [third from top, right]. I need to know how you did it. ERW: My makeup artist, Toby Fleischman, and I pulled shots of bold eyes—it ended up being part St. Vincent, part Sophia Loren. AS: I love experimenting with beauty too. The other day I was like, “What if I did a rainbow brow?” ERW: I say go for it. Integrity and originality have currency in this industry. It might be a slower burn, but it’s still appreciated.

“Why Isn’t Everyone Talking About Thıs?” ACTRESS, FILMMAKER, AND ACTIVIST MARISK A HARGITAY ON GETTING JUSTICE FOR VICTIMS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT
I
got a sense early on that Law & Order: SVU and my role on it were going to have more significance in my life than I’d initially anticipated. After I started filming the first season in 1999, I was invited to a dinner for Mt. Sinai Hospital’s Sexual Assault Violence Intervention program to honor [the show’s creator] Dick Wolf. That was the first time I heard the sexual-violence statistics that to this day rock me back on my heels: At some point in her life, one in three women reports being physically or sexually abused by a husband or boyfriend. I started doing the math whenever I was in a group of women, and I was just floored. And I thought, “Why isn’t everyone talking about this?” I was looking for ways to respond, beyond simply being outraged, so I decided to become a rape crisis counselor to learn more. As I was educating myself, SVU began airing. Almost 20 years ago, the conversation around sexual violence was very diferent, virtually nonexistent, but I think the show helped give people permission to talk about it more openly. That’s when I started getting letters from survivors, many of them saying, “Your show saved my life. I’ve never told anyone this before.” I wanted to continue to build out my response, so I started the Joyful Heart Foundation in 2004 to help survivors heal and reclaim their lives. A key element in that process can be the pursuit of justice. That’s why we’ve prioritized the elimination of the rape-kit backlog, the hundreds of thousands of untested kits sitting in storage facilities in the U.S. It is still one of the most shocking demonstrations of how these crimes—and women—have been regarded in this country. We’re working toward passing comprehensive legislation in all 50 states [to eliminate the backlog]. We are obviously in an unprecedented moment of cultural change on the issue of sexual violence. I am so deeply grateful for the courage of the women who have come forward, who have made the world pivot. And I will always look up to the heroes in this movement, like Gloria Steinem. This has been a truly awe-inspiring display of strength in numbers—and the strength of collective outrage has brought

about this hard-won time of change. We must continue to move forward, fearlessly and relentlessly. I don’t want my kids to grow up in a victim-blaming culture. Outrage is still a very potent source of fuel for me. At the same time, I think that one of the many reasons this change is so vital is that it will ultimately make space for vulnerability, which I consider a superpower, in both women and men. Compassion and empathy toward survivors are vital in this process, now more than ever. You don’t need to be an expert to make a diference—I’m not. There’s deep, transformational power in the act of bearing witness, in listening. It has been an incredible privilege to tackle these issues on- and ofscreen. It’s also been overwhelming at times, but whenever things get diicult and I feel like I can’t do something, I always hear my father asking me, “Why not?” He’d always ask me that question when I was younger, and it really taught me that no one can ever tell me what I can or can’t do. —AS TOLD TO SAMANTHA SIMON In her documentary, I Am Evidence, premiering April 16 on HBO, Hargitay sits down with sexual-assault survivors and discusses the backlog of rape kits in the U.S. For more information on her foundation, visit joyfulheartfoundation.org.

D
o you want to know the gender?” my doctor asked. “Yes!” I responded without a moment’s hesitation. I’m a journalist, always wanting to know more. And yet this wasn’t the moment I had dreamed about. I wasn’t standing beside a frostingshrouded cake, armed with a knife to reveal the pink or blue crumbs. I wasn’t lying on an exam table with a sticky ultrasound probe pressed against my abdomen. I wasn’t even pregnant. I was on the phone, standing awkwardly in a quiet hallway at work. What my doctor was ofering to reveal was not the gender of a baby but the gender of a clump of cells. Two, actually—a pair of frozen embryos my husband and I had spent tens of thousands of dollars to create. “They’re boys!” he said excitedly. The news gave our embryos life and filled me with dread. It was the latest surprise in my years-long march to motherhood, a precursor to What to Expect When You’re Expecting that could have been titled This Is Not What I Expected at All. As a teen I had scripted a tidy life plan: married by age 27, two daughters before 34. I assumed that when I was ready to have children I would have them, in no small part because my mom used her own fertility as a threat. She cornered me as a high schooler with a rotating cast of boyfriends and grabbed me by the shoulders: “Your father and I got pregnant on the first try,” she warned. I met my husband, Matthew, when I was 27 (already behind schedule!). We got married four years later and
started trying for a baby two months before our first wedding anniversary. I anxiously peed on the fanciest ovulation sticks I could find. With every twitch or pang in my pelvic area, my heart soared. It sank just as quickly with the start of my period. About a third of couples get pregnant in their first month of trying. That number jumps to 80 percent after six months. My gynecologist encouraged us to try for a year, but I began to worry after nine months. I was 32 and had sprung from my mother’s insanely fertile womb. So why wasn’t I pregnant? We got our answer after a dozen doctor’s appointments and a battery of tests. My husband was diagnosed with a balanced chromosomal translocation, meaning that pieces of two chromosomes were swapped. It’s unusual but not uncommon: Around one in 560 people has a balanced translocation. Most people don’t realize they even have it until they try to reproduce, because it can lead to a higher risk of miscarriage and birth defects. The news was devastating. We cried. We sulked. We fought. It was a disorienting time. I selfishly blamed Matt for something completely out of his control. And in our lowest moment, he ofered to call it, to let me find someone else I could have a baby with. But that was never an option. I wanted a family with the man I adored. At his doctor’s recommendation, we jumped straight to in vitro fertilization (IVF). More than a million babies have been born in the U.S. with the help of IVF and related treatments since 1985. But when I learned through some ill-advised, late-night Googling what we were in for, I almost threw up. First comes a week or more

of shots to the abdomen, swelling the ovaries to the size of oranges and tricking them into producing more than one egg. Endless earlymorning doctor’s appointments to monitor your progress culminate in an egg retrieval under anesthesia. Next, a lab technician will often play matchmaker, combining the eggs with sperm. Then you cross your fingers and hope like hell that those two take and grow together into an embryo suitable for transferring back into a waiting womb. Finally, there is the 10-day wait before the pregnancy test, punctuated (literally) by daily shots to the backside with a needle long enough to tranquilize an elephant. IVF increases the chances of pregnancy but provides no guarantees. Roughly 30 percent of cycles in 2015, the most recent data available, resulted in a live birth. Each cycle would cost us more than $15,000, with insurance covering just a fraction. The budgeting we could handle (my Midwestern roots take a special kind of satisfaction in frugality). The needles I could not. Thankfully, I married a man with a much stronger constitution. Matt prepped the meds and administered the shots each night, pinching my belly fat—a necessary, unsexy step in a wildly unsexy process. Matt also accompanied me to every doctor’s appointment, too many to count. It was a relief to have him by my side in the silent, stress-inducing waiting room on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. We weren’t going to make a baby with a Champagne-fueled, rose-petal-laden romantic evening. But we were making a baby together. That first IVF cycle was almost ... exciting? My body responded well, yielding a veritable chicken coop’s worth of eggs. We transferred two of the four viable embryos we had ended up with after fertilization and—huzzah—one took. I was pregnant. Until I wasn’t. During a routine ultrasound at the end of my first trimester, my doctor squinted at the screen. My heart began to race as it became clear there was no heartbeat at all—the result of a chromosomal abnormality. In our blind determination we doubled down with dizzying back-to-back attempts. After a second unsuccessful transfer, a second full round of IVF, and then a third unsuccessful transfer, my body’s response tanked. After our third round of IVF, we had no suitable embryos left to transfer at all. Our world grew very small. We distanced ourselves from friends with children and kept date nights to a minimum to pinch pennies. Adrift and despondent, we met with a counselor to talk about donor sperm and attended an adoption information session. We talked endlessly about what is known in the fertility world as “child-free living.” We resolved to try a doctor at another clinic. He suggested a costly additional step: genetic testing. The lab

Matt, tears already welling in my eyes. Two viable embryos! We toasted the news with mimosas poolside before noon. Fear crept back in when my doctor called to discuss next steps and shared the gender. The news humanized the embryos and upped the ante in my mind. On the brisk fall day when we transferred the first of those embryos, I lay anxious and alone on a frigid operating room table, my legs spread-eagle in stirrups. (Partners are not allowed in there, a policy I understand but don’t agree with.) Chicago’s “You’re the Inspiration” played overhead. I put my hands on my pelvis, said a little prayer, and began to plead. “Please, please, please,” I thought as the embryo entered my body. “Please stay.” I sat for 10 minutes or so in the recovery room before the nurse told me I could go. “Shouldn’t I stay a little longer, just to be sure?” I asked. “You’re not a chicken,” she said, laughing. “It’s not going to fall out.” I tiptoed awkwardly into the waiting room and let Matt’s arms envelop me. Together we stared at the magnified portrait of the embryo given to us by the lab, studying the grainy image for hints of viability. Nine months and 21 hours of labor later, our son Fitzgerald came into the world. Two years and 11 days after that, our second son, Oliver, was born. Hanging in our kitchen, alongside the ultrasound images from each pregnancy, are the pictures of those two viable embryos—two clumps of cells, our two little boys, Fitz and O. When the time comes to talk with them about how babies are made, I will take a deep breath, smile, and start with, “Not always how you’d expect.” Q

They make a look more modern. 5 Not a day goes by when I don’t have dark chocolate. I’ve got a whole drawer at my office filled with different kinds. 6 One of my go-tos in Paris is the cute café Wild & the Moon.

BEAUTY Runway star Jourdan Dunn can pinpoint the exact moment when she knew her career was about to take off. “Booking Prada [in 2008] put me on the map,” says the model, who at just 17 years old was the first black woman to appear on the brand’s catwalk since Naomi Campbell in the ’90s. Dunn had been scouted only two years before at her local mall in London’s Hammersmith district by the same agency that discovered Kate Moss. After that historic walk, Dunn’s life became surreal: She landed the cover of Vogue Italia’s 2008 all-black issue and even received a personal note from Tyra Banks: “It said, ‘I’ve been watching, and I’m super proud of you,’” Dunn says. But her most surprising moment? Finding out she was pregnant at 18. “I decided, ‘I want to have this baby, and I’m going to make it work,’”she says. Here, Dunn talks about that game-changing decision and how she rose to the top as a young working woman. Your life really evolved between 2008 and 2009. Can you describe what that time was like for you? I was doing all
the shows and getting invited to this party and that party, but I didn’t appreciate the position I was in. I felt insecure. I was like, “Yes, I’m a part of this, but I don’t feel like I should be.” When did you start to realize, “Hey, I’m actually really good at this and I belong here”? Honestly, only recently. There’s
go on a two-week vacation to Jamaica with my family. I told my younger brother, who was 15 at the time, “I’m going to get a pregnancy test. Don’t tell Mom where I’m at.” When it said [I was] pregnant, I just felt kind of numb. I thought about everyone else’s opinion—my mom, my agency, the people who look up to me. It wasn’t until I really sat down and thought about it that I was like, “Seriously, you’re talking about what other people want? What do you actually want?” I realized I have to live my life for me.
I was like, ‘Seriously, you’re talking about what other people want? What do you actually want?’ ”
always self-doubt that creeps in, but now I treat it as a reminder that actually, no, I am worthy of being among all these people. I do deserve to be at the Met Gala, even though at my first one I called my mom from the bathroom and said, “Mom, I was on the red carpet, and it was OK for a second, but then Victoria and David Beckham came and nobody cared [about me].”
When you found out you were pregnant with your son, Riley, how did you first feel about it? I was at the airport about to

Dunn on Jean Paul Gaultier’s spring 2010 ready-to-wear runway
And you did make it work, right down to walking the runway pregnant at Jean Paul Gaultier’s spring 2010 ready-to-wear show. What was that like? At first I was
nervous about people’s reaction. But as soon as I got on the runway and I felt everyone’s positivity and heard cheering, I felt good about myself. Now it’s something I can show to my son and be like, “Listen, you were there

mom told me to move back home so I’d have more support. The first day home from the hospital I did my hair and makeup for people coming over, and my mom was like, “What are you doing? Don’t put that pressure on yourself.” Once she said that, I was like, “You know what? I am actually exhausted.” Then I spent, like, two weeks in pajamas. I think a lot of new moms put pressure on themselves to be a certain way. But it’s, like, you gave birth. Who cares if you haven’t brushed your hair? Who cares if you have sour milk on your nightie? How did you feel about leaving the bubble of new motherhood to return to modeling? People thought I was

going to get back to work as soon as I had him, but I took my time. Although I knew I had to eventually get back into shape, I wasn’t in a rush to get back to sample size. I enjoyed the extra weight. I’d never had those curves before, and it’s what I’d always wanted. When I did finally return to work, it felt good because I felt like the old Jourdan again. I was still breastfeeding, which I did for nine months, and I remember I was in a catalogue for Victoria’s Secret, and they were very accommodating. They set up a corner for me to use every three hours [to pump].
making a wish list, and in my career it was the Victoria’s Secret show, a Vogue cover, and a Maybelline contract. I’d ticked of two, so the only one missing was Maybelline. I got the news at JFK airport and legit started crying in the middle of baggage claim. I grew up seeing Maybelline commercials with Christy [Turlington] and Adriana [Lima], and they were just themselves. I hope I can do that for another young woman who’s watching me.
What’s the best mothering advice you’ve ever received?
There are no rules to this. No matter how prepared you think you are, you’re never going to be really ready to take care of another human being. Riley is basically my teacher. He’s the one who made me who I am today as a mother.
You’re such a big part of the fashion world. But is Riley?
My life is all over the place, but Riley’s is in London. I like to keep things separate: My time with him is our time; when I’m on set I need to focus on being a model. But he’s a natural in front of the camera—a bit too much. At home he uses the iPad to make his own mini movies. He’ll spend hours afterward watching himself!
DUNN’S BEST BEAUTY ADVICE Having amassed a decade’s worth of backstage tricks (and a home beauty closet full of products), this top model has a tip or three to share. 1. TAKE IT OFF
2. FEED YOUR FACE
My mom used to say to me, “Always take off your makeup before bed.” It’s really stuck with me. I use organic coconut oil to remove it. I just massage a teaspoonful on my face then rinse with warm water. It’s even great for eye makeup.
I’ve recently started using natural skin-care remedies, which has really been working for me. Once a week I make a turmeric mask: It’s made up of three tablespoons of yogurt, one teaspoon of organic turmeric powder, and a few drops of honey. It helps reduce [my] blemishes and dark spots and gives a natural glow. But I make sure to use it before bed and not on a day I have a shoot or an event—it can leave a yellow [tint] on your face!

3. PACK VERSATILE PRODUCTS
My new must-have mascara is Maybelline Total Temptation. It gives my lashes full, soft volume that’s perfect for day and night. And I have SuperStay Matte Ink lipstick in my bag; it really does last the whole day.

THE INFLUENCER
BARBARA STURM ON
Healthy,RadiantSkin THE SURGEON–TURNED–SKIN-CARE GURU GETS SCARY-GOOD RESULTS “I THINK I’M THE MOTHER OF customized skin care,” says Barbara Sturm, an aesthetic medical doctor who, about 15 years ago, mixed her own blood into a skin cream and started a beauty phenomenon. The MC1 cream, made with a client’s own blood, is now the stuf of legend. “Everyone who is on it is like, ‘This is the best cream I’ve ever had.’ ” The beauty industry is the last place Sturm ever expected to be. As a self-described tomboy growing up in Germany, she wanted to be a doctor, just like her mom. A sports lover, she became an orthopedist, specializing in inflammation, and helped pioneer a treatment against osteoarthritis. It involved “taking a patient’s blood, creating anti-inflammatory proteins from it, and reinjecting it into the joints.” Around 2001, she attended a workshop on facial fillers and soon applied her learnings from orthopedics to aesthetics. Sturm began injecting solutions of plumping
“Everyone who is on it is like, ‘This is the best cream I’ve ever had.’ ” hyaluronic acid and blood into clients’ faces, and got rave reviews. “Inflammation causes redness, breakouts, aging, eczema, you name it,” she says. “What we create from your blood is a protein, the strongest anti-inflammatory protein in our body.” Dealing with her own problematic skin, Sturm soon whipped up a face cream with zero preservatives, mineral oil, or fragrance. After adding her own blood to it, she found she never needed a basic facial again. In 2014, Sturm launched a line including moisturizers and cleanser using hyaluronic acid and anti-inflammatory extracts. Her approach is nourishing, not stripping: “It’s a problem if you weaken your skin barrier. That’s what’s happening with all these acid peels. [Skin needs] moisturizing, nutrition, and anti-inflammatories. Everything else is just blah, blah, blah.” —ANGELIQUE SERRANO

Made me think, “Oh my god, what’s wrong with me?” I didn’t know anyone with freckles. I remember my mom having cute little moles, but nothing like mine. I think the things we celebrate as adults are the things that make us feel singular when we’re kids. It’s funny— today, when I look in the mirror, I don’t see my freckles. I’m used to the constellation on my face.
So shocking to my 8-year-old self. It’s so interesting to see that natural skin and freckles have become trendy when for years directors asked me to cover mine. I’ve seen tons of pictures of me over the years with them airbrushed out—without anyone having ever asked me. I look at [those images] and go, “Why do I look so diferent? Oh, it’s because my face is as clear as a bell.” MY FRECKLES REALLY COME OUT ...

My only option growing up was Lisa Bonet. Don’t get me wrong, I couldn’t have had a more beautiful option. But she was the only person where I could say, “Wow! She’s mixed like me. I want to look like her.” Thank God my kids have 20 Lisa Bonets to choose from! Maya Rudolph can be seen in the film Life of the Party in May.

Kylie Minogue A PERFORMER FOR THREE DECADES, Minogue has been exercising in front of an audience much of her life: “The most high-impact workouts I’ve done are my shows,” she says. “I mean, I stomp about in crazy stupid heels, and a lot of the outfits weigh a ton, so [I’m] basically weight-training. Even when you’re doing nothing on a riser or balancing on some tiny disc...it’s not a cardiovascular workout, but it’s work.” Off tour, her favorite exercises are “low-impact or no-impact,” but a traveling lifestyle helps keep her in shape. Minogue, a breast-cancer survivor, also knows the value of a daily time-out. “I’ll do as my 98-year-old grandmother says: Lie flat on your back, put your palms up, and take 10 minutes. She wouldn’t have called it meditation, but it is meditation.” A kind of “fancy power nap,” Minogue says, “is one of life’s greatest healers.” Charlotte Tilbury Natural Beauty Instant Look in a Palette, $75; charlottetilbury .com.

FASHION’S NEWEST FACE OPENS UP ABOUT HER AWKWARD PHASE, BECOMING A ROLE MODEL , AND THE BIGGEST LESSON SHE’S LEARNED FROM HER MOM
BEAUTY
Y
ou’re 16. Did you always know you wanted to follow in your mother’s footsteps and become a model? I actually
didn’t understand what she even did until I was older. Plus, I had a real awkward stage not even that long ago. But once I started growing into myself and getting confidence, I realized that maybe modeling was something I’d like to do. You had an awkward stage? Oh my gosh, yes! I was super-tall and a little chubby, and I didn’t know what to do with my hair. And just the clothes I chose to wear … But my parents let me learn my own lessons, which was efective. My mom was like, “You want to wear blue eye shadow? Go ahead.” And I never wore it again. Now I believe that if you haven’t gone through an awkward phase, you haven’t experienced life. You just come out on the other side so grateful it’s over.
“My hairstylists get mad at me because I’ll use hotel shampoos and conditioners.”
Is there something that you had to grow to love about yourself? People at school would make fun of my long
legs. When you’re around a bunch of kids trying to figure out what the guys find cute … that was hard. But later I realized that my legs work for what I want to do. Now, of course, I love my lanky legs. What’s the biggest lesson you’ve learned from your mom? She’s taught me that taking care of yourself is
important, and so is learning to be happy with who you are. And that less is more. It’s fun to play around with makeup, but you don’t need too much to be beautiful.
K A IA’S
MUST-HAVES
You grew up in Malibu. Did that give you a more relaxed approach? Definitely. I don’t wear much makeup, and I
don’t do my hair. My hairstylists get mad at me because I’ll use hotel shampoos and conditioners. But I’ve always been obsessed with smelling good. What’s your earliest perfume memory? Whenever my mom was out, I’d try on all her perfume. I’d, like, see a spray bottle and shower myself in it. But my first personal fragrance, as an adult, was Marc Jacobs Daisy. Now I alternate between Daisy and Daisy Love, which is fresh and clean but still sophisticated.

Since you were already a fan, what was it like shooting the Marc Jacobs Daisy Love campaign? We got to shoot
on the beach, which was a lot of fun. It was like having a beach day with my friends. Like, “How is this work?” How do you approach social media? I like using Instagram to show people my personality. In every other format they’re seeing me through other people’s eyes. So I try not to edit too much or think too hard about it. I’m also not somebody who’s always checking it. I like actually experiencing things. At the same time, I do want to show girls you don’t have to try so hard. As long as you’re happy, whatever everyone else is doing shouldn’t matter. —KAHLANA BARFIELD BROWN

Nearly a decade ago, after finishing her apprenticeship in a tattoo shop in Upstate New York, artist Amanda Wachob began experimenting with different inking methods: Instead of starting with a black outline and then shading in, Wachob played with a borderless “watercolor” technique. The hypersaturated, paintinglike results have a modern fluidity, which she achieves by diluting black ink to create a subtle gray sketch before going in with color. “If I’m told there’s only one way to do something, it makes me question everything,” she says with a laugh. Her work has gained international attention, leading to a multiyear waiting list and collaborations with the Met and Whitney museums. “People should have stylistic options when they get tattooed,” she says. “We were stuck in ‘Sailor Jerry’ for a very long time. But I’m an arty female, not a macho guy.”

Zoë Kravitz is cultural royalty. Yet over the past decade, she’s charted her own course, ably steering clearof any dynastic drama. That speaks not only to her talent but to her ability to navigate her art and her career, just as she saw her parents, Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz, do. These days Kravitz has been busy promoting her new indie mystery (Gemini), gearing up for her band Lolawolf’s second album (due out later this year), filming the second season of the HBO juggernaut Big Little Lies, and serving as the global makeup ambassador of YSL Beauté. It’s quite a way for the 29-yearold to be wrapping up what’s been a defining decade in her life. So for her InStyle cover story, we thought it would be interesting to have her speak with someone who’s seen that evolution up close. Enter her godmother, actress Marisa Tomei. The pair sat down in Kravitz’s L.A. home in early March to talk about embracing age, the restorative power of saunas, and the importance of finding your tribe. MARISA TOMEI: Hi, darling. ZÖE KRAVITZ: Hi, Godmama. MT: Aww. I’ve known you since you were a tiny babe. ZK: It’s funny because Jillian—my manager and a dear
friend of us both—just now said, “This is so great because you guys have known each other for 30 years,” and I was like, “Ahhh!” [Kravitz turns 30 later this year.] I never really thought about age until recently. MT: I remember when I was 30 I was working a lot. I mean, intensely. ZK: Yeah, I’m about to be the most productive I’ve ever been. I’ve worked a lot the past couple of years, but now I’m feeling more confident as an artist and have more opportunities. I’m getting the chance to make art from the ground up. In your early 20s you’re figuring it all out— you’re like a dog with big paws. And you’re waiting for people to open the gates for you. Now they’re open. So I feel really excited for the next 10 years of my life. MT: To see you cultivate your own style and watch you
move through the world as you grow up—you just keep grabbing more of who you are, stepping into yourself. I noticed it so much when you came to see me in the play [How to Transcend a Happy Marriage] last year. I was like, “Oh my god, she’s in a new phase—and a whole new fashion and beauty phase too.” Just when I thought you couldn’t get more gorgeous. ZK: I’m feeling more in my body. Beauty is so much what’s on the inside, as Hallmark-y as that may sound. MT: You grew up knowing that—or being taught that. And I know because I’m best friends with your mom, and that’s something she also taught me. What were your new revelations as you came into your body? ZK: Well, even though I was taught that, I didn’t always feel beautiful on the inside or on the outside. I had to go through phases where I had to try to find it. MT: How did you do that? ZK: Um, I’m still doing it [laughs]. MT: I guess I ask because I’m still doing it too! ZK: We’re all still doing it. I’m just trying to listen to my body, spirit, and heart and notice when I don’t feel good. And when that happens, I shift my energy or my perspective. MT: Right—listening to the inner voices and paying attention to the outside things too. ZK: It’s all so connected. What am I reading, what am I listening to, who am I hanging out with, what am I eating, what am I saying to myself in my head? It shouldn’t be a struggle but a constant ebb and flow. You check in, and you check out. MT: Yes, you need the checkouts too. And by that I mean more playtime or more of not being so hard on yourself. You travel so much. Are there things you do to feel like you’re in your body again when you’re not home? ZK: Steam rooms are, like, my favorite places ever. For me, spas aren’t for getting my nails done. I want to sweat it out. I have a steam room in my house because it just makes me feel so good. When I’m in L.A., I go to a Korean spa and spend hours there sweating it out, moving the energy. MT: Letting it go. ZK: Exactly. So if I’m traveling or feeling shitty physically, that’s usually the first thing I do. MT: Yeah, me too. I’m big into infrared saunas and then getting out in nature. Somewhat related to those kinds of rituals, InStyle points out that we both have tattoos of eyes. How do you see tattoos as an expression of beauty? ZK: I think the fact that they’re permanent is such a wonderfully intense thing. It’s a deep way to adorn yourself, and I think they’re beautiful aesthetically. Even if you get a bad tattoo, it’s like … that’s where you were at that time. MT: That happened to me, and I was with your mother [laughs]! I wouldn’t say that was my finest hour. ZK: I think decoration is lovely, and you obviously are going to get tattoos in places you feel (CONTINUED ON PAGE 248)

f the fashion industry had a walk of fame, model Taylor Hill would qualify for a star. At just 22 years old, she’s logged time on the industry’s biggest catwalks—most recently for Versace, Anna Sui, and Bottega Veneta—landed a Victoria’s Secret contract, and become the face (and bold brows) of Lancôme. But to those who know her best, Hill is an outdoorsy girl who’s happiest hanging at home with her family. It’s just one of many things she has in common with runway legend Cindy Crawford. Here, Crawford and Hill discuss her skyrocketing career and how to look good after spending 14 hours on a plane. CINDY CRAWFORD: Are you ready, Taylor? TAYLOR HILL: Bring it on! CC: Did you grow up wanting to be a model? TH: I did not. I’m from a smallish town in Colorado, and
I wasn’t really aware of fashion and what was going on with it. I loved climbing trees and being in nature. CC: So when you were scouted, what did you think? TH: I was like, “You’re kidding.” I was so nerdy, tall, and skinny and felt so awkward. I said no at first, but then my
mom was like, “Maybe we should give it a shot—you never know.” So I just kind of went for it. CC: Although we’ve met before, I just learned you were a gymnast. Is there anything from that you’ve been able to apply to modeling? TH: Everything: pointing my toes, being aware of my hands, dealing with stage fright. I think I was able to pursue modeling so quickly and passionately because of my athletic background. I wasn’t afraid to move in front of a camera. CC: No wonder you are so successful. You are known for having great eyebrows, but how did you feel about them growing up? TH: I wanted my mom to pluck them, but she worked in a salon for 30 years and refused. She was like, “I’ve seen women come in, get their eyebrows waxed out of their head, and then come back to me 10 years later and be like, ‘I have no more eyebrows, and it sucks.’ ” She told me I looked like Brooke Shields, and I was like, “Who is that? Why do you keep saying that?” Finally she Googled a picture from [Shields’s 1980 film] The Blue Lagoon and was like, “This is what I think you’re going to look like when you’re older.” CC: You owe her a big, huge thank-you. I’ve had similar struggles with my daughter, Kaia (CONTINUED ON PAGE 248)

It’s
11 a.m. on a gloomy February day in a hotel suite high above the streets of downtown Manhattan, the muled blare of car horns barely registering through a thick floor-toceiling window. Barefoot and sitting in an oversize armchair is 16-year-old Rowan Blanchard, looking like a doll or maybe even a character out of a Sofia Coppola movie in a blue velour slip with ribbon straps. Blanchard’s mom, a nice yoga teacher named Elizabeth, has graciously retired to the next room. In from L.A., her hometown, to promote her new book (Still Here) and a new movie (A Wrinkle in Time) in addition to attending various Fashion Week events (the Calvin Klein show, a Proenza Schouler fragrance launch), Blanchard recounts—over a fruit plate and in tones that range from semihushed to totally giddy—the previous night’s excitement at an NYU party. It was a notable occasion not only because she did her own makeup and for the very first time liked the results, but, more crucially, because the college girls approved.

“I went to my friend’s dorm room beforehand, and they were like”—she feigns an air of aloofness—“ ‘Your makeup looks really good.’ And I was like”—equally aloof—“ ‘Yeah, thanks.’ But in my head I was going”—she fans herself— “ ‘Argggh! Thank you!’ ” She lets out a big, goofy laugh and crashes back into the cushions. Blanchard, who has been acting since age 5 and starred in Disney’s Girl Meets World from 2014 until the show ended last year, is at a critical point in her young life. It’s cheesy to say, but she is becoming a woman, which is an especially interesting proposition for her because she a) pretty much has grown up in the public eye and b) hasn’t generally been surrounded by people her own age (she has been homeschooled since the sixth grade). It’s a subject that Blanchard—now somewhat of a poster child for a new, woke generation of Young Hollywood in these antiTrump, gender-fluid, ethnically blended times—has been pondering lately.

G Gugu Mbatha-Raw’s acting portfolio boasts roles like a bonnet-wearing 18th-century aristocrat in Belle, a violethaired pop star in Beyond the Lights, and a futuristic astronaut in The Cloverfield Paradox, to name a few. It’s impossible to predict whom the 35-year-old is going to play next—and that’s just how she likes it. “No one wants to be stuck in a box,” Mbatha-Raw says. “I have a short attention span and want to keep myself interested. Variety is the spice of life, and I never want to get bored.” At our New York City shoot, she is in full-on storytelling mode, assigning personalities to the many hats she tries on. An oversize green Mulberry topper is “very My Fair Lady,” a straw-bow Delpozo style is appropriately dubbed Minnie Mouse, and a wide-brimmed Elie Saab design is so “Anne of Green Gables” that Mbatha-Raw jokes she should go get some honey from her bees as she poses. There’s no doubt that Mbatha-Raw loves what she refers to as the dress-up element of getting into character, but when it comes to her hair and makeup, she prefers to keep things simple. “I feel most beautiful when I’m not being perceived as beautiful,” she says over cofee in Brooklyn a few days after our shoot. “If I’m not thinking about what I look like, then I’m just happy and free to be myself.” Growing up in rural Oxfordshire, “a million miles away from Hollywood or any big city,” she was raised by her English mom, a nurse, and her South African dad, a doctor, to “nurture the soul, spirit, and intelligence rather than the exterior.” That notion has stuck with Mbatha-Raw, so it’s been a process for her to accept the value placed on appearance in the entertainment industry. “I’ve had to come to terms with the concept of beauty without judging it as a vacuous thing,” she says. “My image is part of my job, but I’m getting more comfortable with knowing that it doesn’t define who I am or mean that I’m a superficial person. It’s about expressing yourself.”
Both on and of camera, Mbatha-Raw favors wearing her voluminous, curly hair as is. If a project specifically calls for another hairstyle, “it really has to support the story,” she says, explaining that her role in 2014’s Beyond the Lights was one such case. “My character ultimately took out her purple weave and wore her hair natural, which was essential in the evolution of her authenticity.” For The Cloverfield Paradox, which hit Netflix in February, she was determined to have her character depicted just as authentically. “I was quite adamant about showing my natural hair onscreen, because I had never really seen anyone with hair like mine in a sci-fi movie,” she says. “Images are so important, and I thought it was an opportunity for little girls growing up mixed to feel included and see that they can be an astronaut too.” Though her hair appeared totally natural in the film, she did get a bit of added length from extensions. “I could never shed the character because I was literally carrying her on my scalp,” she says. “That was hard, because at the end of the day, you really want to strip it all back and just be you.” Mbatha-Raw is all for a toned-down look, and after having her hair pressed into a retro “wet set” style for the upcoming 1950s drama Motherless Brooklyn, she gained a newfound appreciation for today’s more relaxed beauty standards. “I’m grateful that in the 21st century, I have the freedom to go to yoga or SoulCycle without having to worry about what I look like,” she says. “But even though I’m constantly running around barefaced with wet hair, I really do respect that element of putting yourself together before you step out the front door. There’s definitely power in making a choice about how you present yourself to the world, as long as you never feel tied to wearing a mask.” Disguises are limited to the big screen for Mbatha-Raw, who doesn’t plan on pursuing a full-time gig on TV anytime soon. “I have to say, I’m a bit of a commitment-phobe,” she says with a laugh. “I just can’t get my head around the idea of playing one character for several years right now, which is why I like film. It’s nice to have a beginning, middle, and end. That way, you know where you’re going.” She might know where she’s headed, but one thing’s for sure: Her audience certainly never will. Q

His medal-winning performance at the Winter Olympics—and TV-perfect candor—won over America. But what will Adam Rippon do next? by CHRISTOPHER BAGLEY photographed by ROBBIE FIMMANO

f you’re a charismatic young man hoping to work in the entertainment business, there are a few common ways to break in. You can land a TV internship, audition for some acting gigs, or maybe launch a YouTube channel from your bedroom. Another option, if you’re Adam Rippon, is to train hard for 15 years in mostly empty ice rinks, often getting injured and being mocked by your schoolmates—and then win a bronze medal at the Olympics. Rippon drily acknowledges that his route to fame has not been the easiest or most direct one. “All along,” he jokes, “I was like, ‘This is just to get a guest spot on Ellen!’ ” But three days after his return from the closing ceremonies in South Korea, here he sits at Nobu Malibu, sipping sauvignon blanc and marveling at his packed media schedule, which has been arranged by his new agents at WME. In addition to the Ellen appearance this week, he’s got sit-downs with everyone from Stephen Colbert to The New York Times, plus a fitting with Moschino designer Jer-

emy Scott for the S&M-inspired tuxedo he’ll wear to this weekend’s Academy Awards. Yes, everyone wants a piece of Adam Rippon. And the evidence suggests there’s enough of him to go around. In person, Rippon exudes the same mix of sassiness and sincerity that endeared him to legions of TV viewers who tuned in to watch some skating and ended up following him on Twitter to catch his banter with new fans like Reese Witherspoon or his cogent advocacy for LGBTQ+ causes. Rippon, 28, still isn’t sure about his next career move, but he does know that triple and quadruple axels are slipping lower on his priority list. “I don’t want to be recognized for being an athlete anymore,” he says. “I’m over it.” Asked to name the high point of his four weeks in Pyeongchang, he singles out the “crazy response” he got from spectators and the media. “I’ve always loved skating,” he says, “but on some level I’ve always known that entertaining is what I’m better at.” If Rippon has a key talking point, it’s the importance of being true to oneself. The surprise is that he’s a fairly recent convert to that conviction. Though Rippon is one of the few

openly gay Olympians, he’s been out publicly for less than three years. Growing up in smalltown Pennsylvania, he says, “for so long I was so ashamed of who I was. I never thought my mom or dad would have a problem with the truth, but I had a problem with it.” Eventually, as the miseries and frustrations of life inside the closet piled up, he started to “own who I am,” he says. “It’s a really liberating experience to just be yourself.” On the ice, the efect was immediate. “There is a huge diference in the way I used to skate and the way I skate now,” Rippon says. “I used to mainly try to impress the judges, and for me that meant being perfect, and that meant holding back. And now I’m like, ‘Fuck ’em.’ ” Sometimes, while warming up on the rink before a competition, he’ll skate past the judges and make eye contact, greeting every oicial with a smile or a winking “Hey, how are you?” “I mean, nobody does that,” he says. “That’s crazy! But I don’t care. I’m there to do what I can do.” Of the rink, meanwhile, Rippon has grown bolder about calling out hypocrisies of all kinds. The oldest of six children from a Catholic family who went to church together every morning, he wishes some Christians would act a little more, um, Christian. “Jesus didn’t judge people—he hung out with everyone and was a friend of everyone. I don’t understand how people who are so religious don’t follow that example.” Then there’s the double standard of those who claim to have no problem with gay people but who freak out when samesex couples have the gall to get married or to hold hands in public. “When you see a guy and a girl walking down the
224 I n S T Y L E M AY 2 0 1 8
street and holding hands, do you think they’re flaunting their sexuality? No, they’re just holding hands. But when two girls do it, people say, ‘Oh, those girls are just terrible. They’re throwing it in my face!’ Actually, they’re just in love and living their lives. Like, let them go.” Rippon himself has been single since last year, after breaking of a two-year relationship in order to focus on his Olympic training. In recent weeks his romantic suitors have become as numerous, and as brazen, as you might expect. “Suddenly I’m hearing from every single person I’ve matched with on Tinder, ever,” he says. “But it’s like, ‘You didn’t want to meet me when you had the chance, when I was trying. Why now?’ It’s hard, because you never know what someone’s intentions are.” As he gets used to being a public (CONTINUED ON PAGE 249)

ondon in the mid-’70s felt like the epicenter of the world,” says Sam McKnight. “The style of the time was so eclectic, and every type of person came into the salon—hippies, punks, disco queens … even Bianca Jagger. It was magical.” The Scottish hairstylist reinterpreted many of those looks for the “simple yet modern” ’70s styles on these pages. And while he got his start at the original Molton Brown salon in 1977, McKnight didn’t stay behind the styling chair for long. He began working for magazines like British Vogue and was scouted by an agent, who suggested a move to New York City in 1982. Not long after, he met Naomi Campbell and Cindy Crawford and began collaborating with top photographers like Nick Knight. But it was a call in 1990 that came to define the next phase of McKnight’s career. He
was summoned to a closed set in London to style a mystery client who turned out to be Princess Diana. After he spontaneously cropped her hair into a pixie, they forged a close working relationship. “Toward the end of her life, she was growing her hair long again,” he says. “Iconic women tend to reinvent themselves.” McKnight would know: He’s since created styles for such actresses as Cate Blanchett and such music legends as Lady Gaga. His present work at shows like Chanel and Fendi, however, inspired his new four-product collection, which features a texture spray that can give you tousled Kate Moss waves in a flash. “When I’m backstage, I need to get the girls ready fast, so I wanted to focus [my line] on instant results,” he says. “Because real women don’t have time to get ready either!” Q

The picture on the opening spread, in my humble opinion, tells you everything you need to know about Judith Light. Fearless, fashionable, casual, charismatic as hell, and— damn it—she’s bendy to boot. Light’s flexibility extends to her unparalleled television, film, and stage career in which she’s earned two Tony Awards (for Other Desert Cities and The Assembled Parties) and a pair of Daytime Emmys (for One Life to Live). Famed for also starring on Who’s the Boss and Ugly Betty, Light is now receiving some of her best reviews for her role as Shelly Pfeferman on Transparent and her sensational one-of turn as Marilyn Miglin, the wife of Lee Miglin, one of serial killer Andrew Cunanan’s victims in The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story. Over tea in N.Y.C., she tells me just how she keeps that Light on. LAURA BROWN: First of, how did you get so bendy? JUDITH LIGHT: Life requires you to be flexible. I started
taking dance classes when I was a very young girl in New Hope, Penn. I danced from the time I was little, and then when aerobics came in, I was doing a lot of that. I danced for so long that I have a knee problem, so I had kneereplacement surgery on that leg I had up [in that photo]. LB: How do you take care of yourself from day to day? You live on both coasts and have a very intense work schedule. Are there certain routines you do to keep your ship steady? JL: One thing I try to do every day is some kind of meditation for however long it might be. As prep before a play begins, I’ll do a lot of kundalini yoga, which incorporates “breath of fire.” It exercises your diaphragm in a really powerful way and gets your energy going. And I do my best to eat well. LB: You’re pretty healthy. JL: Oh, yeah. I’m primarily a vegetarian, and I try to lean in the vegan direction. LB: And then lean back the other way [laughs]. What’s the silliest thing you’ve done in the name of beauty? JL: Oh my god, when I was so heavy …
LB: When were you ever heavy? JL: Oh, I was 50 pounds heavier when I was at Carnegie
Mellon University. It wasn’t just freshman 15—it was freshman 30 for me. We didn’t have grades; we had comments, and there was this incredible teacher who commented, “If Judy does not lose weight, she is going to play kooky character parts forever.” It was really interesting. Anyway, I would put plastic wrap around my thighs ... LB: No! Did that even work? JL: Honey, you just sweat a lot and get rid of a lot of water. I would put plastic wrap around my middle and my arms, and then I would walk or run to try to lose water weight. That’s probably one of the silliest things I’ve done for beauty. LB: How did you even out when you started working? JL: I actually went into therapy. The underlying issue was that I was eating out of emotion … out of worry and frustration and fear. I had this extraordinary therapist, and he said to me, “You’ve never learned how to eat, so I want you to eat.” And I said, “Are you out of your mind? I’m 175 pounds, and you want me to eat?” LB: You’re like, “But that’s my problem!” JL: He said, “Just try to do what I’m telling you and see if it can work for you.” So I said, “OK. Fuck you. I’m gonna go eat.” I ate everything. If it moved, I ate it. I kept gaining weight. Then one day I went to the refrigerator, and I was like, “I can have whatever I want. What do I actually want?” And it was a revelation. It wasn’t about losing weight to be on television or for my career. I didn’t want to keep eating from emotion, so that’s how it happened. I began working out, and the weight started coming of. LB: What’s beauty to you? JL: People say it’s what’s on the inside that makes you beautiful, which sounds awfully new agey but is true. If one looks at oneself—and this has been a lifelong process for me—to say, “Who am I being? How is the connection, the communication?” If you listen too much to people who are telling you that you should be doing this or that, all those “shoulds” can accelerate a person’s worries. LB: Right. JL: I don’t think about life as doing what I want. It’s about doing what I think works. And then all of a sudden there’s a natural progression of things that happens for you and with you. Being patient with other people creates a connection and produces an intimacy that is much deeper and more substantive. LB: Anything else you’ve tried? JL: Years ago I went to a Sikh yoga ladies’ camp in Española, N.M. A lot of my health-care people in Los Angeles are Sikhs, and they’re wonderful. So my internist said to me, “Oh, you might wanna come to this.” You sleep in tents, take cold showers, and wake up at 3 in the morning to do yoga and meditate. I went several times and loved it. I felt connected to myself and the earth and other people. In the Sikh religion, they talk a lot about your grace. How do you present your grace in the world? I took a class that was called “What is your image?” LB: Oh [laughs]. Not the one you’re used to in Los Angeles. (CONTINUED ON PAGE 250) JL: So, I’m in the class, and the

pposites attract. Take Aerin Lauder and Amirah Kassem. One is an uptown lifestyle guru—granddaughter of the legendary Estée Lauder—elegant and laid-back in her suede Manolo Blahnik mules and navy Tibi blouse. The other is a downtown baking rebel, sugared up and bouncy in her colorful Vans and heart-patched apron, heir apparent to Willy Wonka. Lauder is a frequent customer at Flour Shop, the rainbow-bright bakery in New York’s SoHo and home to Kassem’s Instagram-famous explosion cakes. When you slice into one of her frosted six-layer confections, which come in mini, midi, and maxi “fashion sizes,” out tumble sprinkles, nonpareils, and candy-covered chocolates. Lauder, founder and creative director of her namesake luxury beauty and lifestyle brand, Aerin, is known for her gracious entertaining style and has been turning to the increasingly indemand cake whiz for custom creations you can’t find anywhere else. “If you go to someone’s house and there’s no dessert, that’s not fun,” Lauder says. “Fruit for dessert? Not fun. Cake is better. And everything Amirah does is surprising, whimsical, and delicious.” This morning the two are together for an explosion cake–decorating les-

son. Of course, Kassem is adding a custom twist to pay homage to Lauder’s world. The creation, inside and out, matches a blue, green, and white plate from Lauder’s latest Williams Sonoma collection [below] and has coconutcake layers and vanilla-flavored frosting that reference notes from Lauder’s newest fragrance, a lush tropical blend called Hibiscus Palm. Once the layers of cake are stacked high and candies are poured into the hollowed-out center, Kassem and Lauder begin decorating. Kassem hands over a pastry bag filled with blue frosting, and Lauder looks amused. “I’m not going to lie—I’m not the best at this,” she admits while aiming the bag’s tip at the top of Kassem’s confection. After Kassem assures Lauder that her hand piping makes the grade, the duo talk about their most memorable childhood cakes. For Kassem, it was a “literally life-size” Little Mermaid birthday cake. For Lauder, it was a Barbie cake, the kind in which an actual doll is suspended in a frostedcake skirt. This gives Kassem an idea: “When is your birthday?” she asks Lauder with a smile. “I am definitely making you a Barbie cake!”
1. Prepare the cake mix as directed and divide the batter equally among six bowls. 2. Mix the food-coloring shades of your choice in each bowl. 3. Bake all six colors individually in greased cake pans (to save time, bake in batches and refrigerate extra batter while the first batch cooks). 4. Once all six layers have cooled, cut a circle from the center of five of the layers with the round cutter, leaving the top layer intact. 5. Pipe a circle of frosting on a cake stand, and set the first layer on top of it to hold the cake in place. 6. Pipe a thick circle of frosting over the first layer, smooth it with an offset spatula or knife, and place the second layer on top. 7. Repeat with the remaining center layers. 8. Fill the cake cavity with the sprinkle-candy mixture all the way to the top, flush with the fifth layer. 9. Pipe a circle of frosting on the fifth layer, smooth it with an offset spatula or knife, and place the sixth layer on top. 10. Frost the outside of the cake, and move it along with the cake stand onto the center of a baking pan. 11. Cover the sides and top of the cake from the bottom up with handfuls of nonpareils (the pan will catch the excess). 12. Using icing pens or pouches, draw on the designs of your choice. 13. Refrigerate until ready to eat. 14. Serve by cutting a large slice and slowly removing it with a cake server; allow the candy mixture to spill out, and invite guests to take pictures.

is working with what you have. What’s your favorite physical feature about yourself? HA: I really like my dimple. If I’m laughing and smiling, the dimple just gets so deep. KC: I like my legs from my knees down— Barbara Walters told me [the calves are] the last thing to go! Also my nose. Friends used to ask if I could go with them when they were getting a nose job because they liked my nose [laughs]. HA: I used to hate my nose! Because it’s a little button. It’s funny—here it’s the opposite, but in my culture, a big nose is so damn attractive. Everyone wants a big nose. It’s so weird that you cross a border and the definition of beauty changes. It even changes from person to person. How do you define beauty? HA: You can be covered from head to toe and still be beautiful. There’s a beauty in what you say and how you carry yourself. That’s the kind of beauty we should strive for. KC: What beauty means is changing before our eyes. Having Halima’s image out there, whether she’s doing an ad for Rihanna or being in a beauty pageant, changed so many hearts and minds. I may not be a huge fan of beauty pageants, but look at the doors her participation opened for others. Halima, a lot of people see your hijab as a political statement. Do you? HA: I don’t. It’s just what I grew up seeing. It’s my normal. But I recognize that it’s the first thing people notice about me in a country where it may be the only information you have about Muslims. I approach it from a positive standpoint: Maybe I’m the only Muslim that person is going to encounter—so my personality better be on point! Women’s bodies are often politicized in a way that’s out of our control. Do you think beauty can be a means to reclaim that power? KC: I’m torn about that, honestly. Sometimes I feel women should be loud and proud about their beauty; other times I think we get objectified for it. We send strong messages through our appearance. So if you look too beautiful and sexy, does it take away from people’s perception of your intelligence? But, ultimately, you should be trying to please yourself. People say that when the economy goes down, lipstick sales go up. Is beauty a way to find joy in tough times? KC: I find joy wherever I can these days! A good blowout can completely transform my mood. HA: Yes. I know makeup shouldn’t be what makes you feel beautiful, but a lot of women love makeup. For me, it brings out the version of myself I like most. With a little mascara, I’m ready to tackle the day. It’s exciting to see the fashion and beauty industries begin to embrace diversity—but do you ever feel as if their attempt at inclusion ends up being more like tokenism? KC: I think that change has to begin with what could be interpreted as tokenism because tokenism is a sort of first. But this generation is demanding more inclusion, diversity, intersectionality, and representation, and companies are starting to understand that and are capitalizing on it in the best possible way. HA: Somebody needs to be the first; it comes down

comfortable with or places you want to highlight, even if it’s just for yourself or your partner. There’s something that feels so wonderfully ancient about it as well, which I like. MT: When you say “ancient,” it makes me think of argan oil. Are there things like oils you love to put on? ZK: Coconut oil is beautiful, the way it smells and feels. I love the idea of putting something on your body that you can eat and that smells like cupcakes … because girls are supposed to smell like cupcakes [laughs]. It’s my favorite thing in the world, coconut oil. MT: So in terms of work, you have the film Gemini out now, and your band Lolawolf is about to release a new album. Do people ask you if you prefer music to acting? People always ask me that about theater and film, and I feel more like they feed each other than compete. ZK: It’s so funny because in the olden days it was, like, singing and dancing and theater and film—it really was all part of the same thing, and you had to be able to do everything. Now they’re like, “Wait, you’re doing both of these things. Which one do you like more?” As if you have to make a decision. They feed each other—that’s such a beautiful way to say it. I learn so much about who I am as an artist every time I write a song, and I can apply that same idea when I get a script. MT: Do you have a support system that has sustained you and helped you move through things as you grow? ZK: I do. I mean, I’ve grown up with an amazing support system. You’re part of it! My mother has always surrounded herself with fantastic women who have paid such wonderful attention to me from an early age. I think being received like that by other women has allowed me to be open to relationships like that of my own. And also having my own relationships now with you all. MT: It’s so fun for me too, like, Zoë’s here, and she’s grown up! I have a new friend. ZK: Yes, we’re learning who we both are as two people now. I’ve met so many wonderful women, specifically my castmates on Big Little Lies. They’ve really become a support system for me, and I hope I’ve done the same for them. Before we knew we were coming back for a second season, we kept in touch—group texts and emails and stuf like that. And I’ve spoken to [co-star] Reese [Witherspoon], who’s become one of my dearest friends, about so many aspects of my life. She’s such a smart businesswoman, so I’ve sent her ideas and scripts, and she reads them and gives me feedback. It’s so amazing to have women in your life like that who are a part of the industry and who you’ve grown up watching and admiring … and now they’re giving you advice and encouraging you to continue and develop your projects, your dreams, and yourself. MT: The unity between women just changes ev-
erything. It’s always helped me find my voice and elevate the artistic experience. ZK: Elevate the world, which is why I think people have been trying to stop us [laughs]. MT: It’s just too powerful. It really is true. ZK: I feel it. I believe it. Because when we come together, you feel the energy immediately. We’ve all grown up in a culture where we were taught to fight with one another for jobs and attention— specifically men’s attention. The fact that we’re supposed to compete in terms of who’s the most beautiful—that’s the issue for this beauty issue! We’re not taught to raise one another up. But everyone looks more beautiful once we get rid of the idea that we need to oppose one another. Everyone gets to sparkle. I want to be an example of a person in the world just being herself. MT: Authenticity is an antidote to toxicity. ZK: Especially with a president who’s constantly spewing bullshit. [Authenticity] is like the sauna efect—sweat that shit out. Q

[Gerber, also a model]. It’s good when you listen to your mom once in awhile. TH: Yeah. Mine ended up really doing a lot for me. CC: We have your best interests at heart. So sometimes in this job you have a 14-hour flight before heading straight to work. What’s your 10-minute trick for pulling yourself together even when you don’t feel like it? TH: I’ve learned that dry shampoo is your best friend. Brushing your teeth is your second-best friend. And then deodorant. I work with Lancôme, and my favorite waker-upper is their Génifique [line]. Like, do the face mask on the plane. Put the serum on when you land. Brush your teeth, spray dry shampoo— you’re a whole new person! CC: And have you gotten any great beauty hacks from your hair and makeup people? TH: I don’t know if you know Fulvia [Farolfi], but she uses this teeny, tiny hair dryer to heat up the eyelash curler before using it. I swear it makes your lashes stick straight up all day. CC: That’s amazing. What’s your fitness regimen like? I know taking care of your body is an important part of being a Victoria’s Secret Angel. TH: Eating well and working out are the most important things because they build endurance. I have up to 18-hour days, and it’s harder to get through them when I’m out of shape. Fitness also changes my perspective on the day, how much I can accomplish, and how I feel about myself. I love highinterval training, CrossFit-based moves, and lifting weights. I want exercise to be hard so it feels like I’ve accomplished something. CC: I totally agree that when you are strong physically, it translates to feeling strong mentally. OK, so you have a brother and sister who are both models and another sister who is a photographer. How often do you all work together? TH: I wish it were more often. When I get to be on set with my other siblings, it just feels like home. I know these people ... we’re one. We come from the same humans. CC: How is your brother, Chase, finding the experience of modeling? Are you noticing a diference
[from your own career]? TH: He’ll call and ask me like, “Oh, do you know this person?” And I’m like, “Very important person, yes, talk to them.” But there are other instances where I’m like, “That’s out of my range.” When he needed help with his runway walk, I said, “Can’t help you, man! It’s going to be waaay diferent from mine.” CC: Your InStyle shoot was in Hollywood. When I’m there with my family, they are like, “Where are the celebrity sightings?” Are there any stars you’ve gotten a little fangirly about meeting? TH: When I first met you, I was like, “Whoa, Cindy Crawford!” I met Rihanna, and I mean, come on, she’s Rihanna. And I just saw Amy Adams during Oscar weekend and was like, “Just got to say, ‘Love ya!’ ” There are so many people we get to talk to [as models], and it’s like, “Wow!” But then you just realize, “Hey, they are a person, just like me.” It’s cool to see that. CC: There’s a lot of discussion in fashion right now about the way models are treated. Have you—if you want to talk about this—experienced poor treatment? And what changes would you like to see the industry make? TH: I love talking about it because this is a really great opportunity we have as women to make the industry better for the next generation. The No. 1 thing I would love to see change is the dressing rooms backstage at fashion shows. There’s not a place for the girls to change in private away from the press and photographers. There are girls who are 16 years old, like I was when I first started, changing in an open space. CC: Well, the problem now is everyone has cell phones. There’s not a corner where someone can’t snap a picture, you know? TH: Exactly. And that’s terrifying. I was always so afraid of that happening to me, because once that happens, it’s out there. CC: On a happier note, what are you looking forward to this year? TH: Everything! I just turned 22, but I still feel like a kid sometimes. I look at my life and where I’m at, and I’m like, “How did I even get here, and what am I still doing here?” I look forward to every single day. CC: It’s great to hear how much you love modeling. Last thing: What advice would you give Kaia? TH: Oh my gosh ... she has you! What does she need my advice for? Q
Portrait of a Young Lady CO N T I N U ED FRO M PAG E 2 1 0
“I’m starting to realize the … ” she trails of, sounding equally reluctant and surprised to say the next word. “Power you have with your physicality,” she says, thoughtfully chewing a strawberry. “Attention is still a new thing. It’s been fun to play with other people’s gazes and explore who’s looking at you: How do I look, and how is that being perceived?” Up until this past year, that was anything but traditionally feminine. “I wasn’t interested in being quote unquote beautiful, maybe because I was told that trying to be that sacrificed your feminism,” she says. “I was more interested in looking weird for myself.” Beauty inspiration came from Sailor Moon and David Bowie circa Ziggy Stardust. “I just love anybody who’s so
strange,” she says. “But now I’m also actually setting out to look like a pretty girl.” This has involved a number of red-carpet firsts since last October: red lipstick at the Teen Vogue summit, false lashes for the Golden Globes parties, and a “beat”—i.e., really done— face for the LACMA Art + Film Gala. The latter is a look she learned about from her younger sister, who goes to public school and knows what all the “teens” (her air quotes) are up to. “I told my makeup artist, ‘I want the highlight [snaps],’ ‘I want the contour [snaps].’ ‘I [snap] want [snap] to go [snap] there [snap].’ ” The acrylic nails are also new; today they are long, round, and painted a shade of blood red. “I really enjoy them, but it takes a fucking while,” she says. “I sit there for two hours, and I’m so bored. It’s work!” More specifically, says Blanchard, it’s women’s work. She remembers seeing her mom and two aunts getting ready for a big night out when she was younger. “It was so fascinating to me,” she says. “And so glamorous, watching them look at themselves in the mirror, wearing pushup bras and all these other things. I was like, ‘Whoa! The world of femininity is so crazy!’ ” Crazy, sure, but back to the subject of feminism, also a tool to fight the system. “The way I view it is that women have to use whatever we were given,” she says, now perched atop a chair arm, looking out onto the skyline. “So if we’re given these frameworks of things that are inherently feminine, whether that’s makeup or the femme fatale or even sadness—all these tropes associated with being a girl—I want to explore the undoing of patriarchal things in that same way.” Blanchard works through her own depression, which she’s been getting help for since age 12, in Still Here, a deeply personal meditation on the exquisite pain of growing up told through drawings, photos, and diary entries by Blanchard and a band of like-minded contributors. And, like so many of the artists and writers she admires (Sylvia Plath, Tracey Emin, and her idol, Lana Del Rey), she approaches her melancholy with no apologies. “There’s a lot of weirdness when you’re a teenager, especially a teenage girl, where people just want to make you be happy and confident, like, ‘Go, girl!’ And I’m so anti that.” Of course anyone over the age of 20, 30, 40— hell, even 70—can attest that the rah-rah insistence by the media and corporations to accept, nay, celebrate, your flaws and get over your misgivings no matter what extends way past adolescence. Blanchard calls it out as reverse feminism. “We’re being told by the same companies that got money from the fact that we hate our bodies to now ‘Love your body!’ and ‘You look so good!’ ” she says. “It’s like the second that our happiness and security can be monetized, there they are.” But not everyone’s intentions are so nefarious. Blanchard often hears the same “don’t hate” message from well-meaning friends, people she respects, but it doesn’t resonate with her. A more authentic approach, she reasons, is to treat the situation with compassion—to recognize that you were taught to dislike these things, so when you do, it’s not that weird. She would rather people be honest about their insecurities than fake impenetrable confidence. “I
would rather us be like, ‘I’m here, and I don’t fit into any of this, and that’s just where I’m going to figure this out.’ ” Welcome to womanhood, Rowan. We’re glad you’re here. Q

figure and role model, Rippon has been fielding more and more requests for advice. One common topic: makeup tips. A self-taught expert on concealers and BB creams, he has watched countless YouTube tutorials over the years and perfected his technique in badly lit arenas worldwide. “With skating, the rule for guys and makeup is thesame as with newscasting,” he says. “You’re on TV, there are close-ups, and you’re being judged on your appearance. So, OK, don’t look like a drag queen but look like you put some efort in.” His own routine before a performance: “I’ll use a light foundation. Then I’ll do a little contour, because I figure, ‘What could it hurt? I’m already sitting here. I might as well try to look better while I’m at it.’ And then I’ll do some matte ChapStick and a little bronzer. It evens your skin tone out so when you’re overheated, you’re not red or patchy.” Rippon’s No. 1 grooming rule for all men, gay or straight: “If you don’t do anything about your body hair, you’re gross. Some people think a lot of chest hair is sexy. Whatever, that’s your chest. But shave your damn armpits! Don’t go out there and raise your arm up with a tight shirt so everyone can see the hair pushing out. Laser it, buzz it, trim it. But do something.” As for Rippon’s much-discussed, much-tweezed eyebrows, he says they’re naturally blond, so he regularly dyes them a few shades darker to match his hair. But he’s not a regular at any exclusive salons in his current hometown of Los Angeles. “No, I’m trash,” he says. “I’ll literally walk in anywhere there’s a sign that says ‘Eyebrow Wax,’ and I’ll be like, ‘Do you have five minutes?’ ” When I ask Rippon to name his dream job, he initially deflects the question with a remark about keeping all doors open. But after his second glass of wine, he blurts out his fantasy: to host his own talk show. “I love hearing other people’s stories, and I love making people laugh,” he says. Whatever his next gig, Rippon is well aware that sudden fame can sometimes turn nice guys into monsters, and he’s got a few strategies for keeping it real. “The most important thing is to really enjoy what you’re doing and to treat every single person you meet in the same way that you want to be treated,” he says. Lately he’s been reminding himself of a story his father once told him. “When my dad was in school, he took a publicrelations class. And the final exam had one question: ‘What’s the name of the janitor who works here?’ And nobody got it right. The teacher was like, ‘The whole point of public relations is that you meet everybody. Because you never know who they are or where they’re going.’ ” Besides, Rippon adds, “If someone is being ignored by everyone else and you treat them well, you might make that person’s day. And we’ve all been that

CREDITS person at some point. So I always try to stay mindful of that.” From now on, Rippon says, whenever he reads a comment where someone calls him a jerk, he’ll be able to dismiss it easily. “I’ll know the person just hasn’t met me yet.” Q

teacher is passing around pictures of models and all these gorgeous people, and I thought, “Well, I’m going to pick that.” And then she passed around this photograph of a Native American woman wrapped in a blanket sitting in front of a mountain. And I was like, “That’s who I aspire to be!” She must have been 90 years old, with this presence and regal bearing. You could see the light in her face and in her being, and it radiated from the photograph. She was a person of substance. LB: Speaking of substance, you are about to start shooting the fifth season of Transparent. JL: It’s going to be later than planned. I also just finished working with [writer, producer, and director] Ryan Murphy on The Assassination of Gianni Versace … LB: And people are dying over it, asking to change the Emmy categories so you can get the guest actress nomination. You’ve always received a lot of attention, but how does it feel when you get this confluence of great reviews? JL: It’s so wild. It always feels good. I was at a Christmas party with Joan Rivers once, and we were having this lovely conversation, and she said, “I say yes to everything,” explaining that the world works out for you in certain ways when you say yes to things. And it’s true. That’s how a whole trajectory of things fell into place, including working with Ryan Murphy, which is something I’ve always wanted to do. LB: And he’s so great with women who aren’t 12. I mean, Jessica [Lange], Kathy [Bates] … JL: Exactly. We didn’t really know each other, and then, when he saw a play I did [Other Desert Cities] and the response to it, he just said, “OK, we’ll do things.” He was so incredibly gracious and kind. LB: Isn’t it wonderful that one of the great things about getting older is the equity you own? There’s something about “You know me and my work, and you know that I’ll show up for you” … JL: That is so brilliant and so true. LB: Who do you find beautiful? JL: The memory of my mother is very beautiful to me. My father, the same thing: really light, beautiful. We’re talking about soul beauty now. My husband has been so beautiful and present for me—you know, my publicist, my agents, my friends … All the people I worked with on The Assassination of Gianni Versace and Transparent. They are people who are there in the goodness of their being, not in their doing. LB: And that is … JL: That is beauty. Q

WHY I LOVE MY MORSE CODE “SISTER” BRACELET by UZO ADUBA
There are so many reasons I love having sisters. My wardrobe has more than doubled, for one. But I also have two teammates in life who’ll always be rooting for me no matter what. They know me from beginning to end. Growing up, we even had a secret language, which would endlessly annoy our two brothers, and we’ve stayed just as close as we’ve gotten older. About 10 years ago, my sister Chioma went on a yearlong backpacking trip to Central and South America. Before she left, she gave my other sister, Onyi, and me each a gold bracelet by the brand Coatt. At first Chioma, I thought it was just a cute little piece of jewelry, but then Chioma explained that Uzo, and Onyi the dots and dashes spell out “sister” in Morse code. I loved that it had a hidden meaning—it reminded me of our secret language from all those years ago. When she was away, I wore the bracelet every single day. Now I still put it on whenever I travel because it makes me feel closer to my sisters even though we’re miles apart. It’s understated and cool, and I can’t live without it. Mostly because I can’t live without them. Aduba stars in Orange Is the New Black on Netflix.
