FOUNDER’S LETTER

California is officially fashion’s cool kid. I say that with confidence, as it has been the outsider for so long. When I created C Magazine 12 years ago this issue, most people in the industry would roll their eyes at the idea of putting “fashion” and “California” in the same sentence. So, with the sartorial seismic shift that’s happening of late, the idea that brands are now spending many millions of dollars to launch collections worldwide from our shores makes me extremely proud. It’s proof that, as a whole, we Westerners are optimistic (not jaded) in our excitement for what’s new and what’s next. Case in point: This summer, Dior chose the spectacular Santa Monica Mountains as the perfect backdrop for its highly lauded Cruise 2018 collection. As I drove up the winding back roads in the hills past Malibu—territory I’m very familiar with—even I found myself wondering if I’d made a wrong turn. When I finally did arrive, the safari-like dreamscape felt plucked from Out of Africa, where canvas tents dotted the landscape and large hot-air balloons loomed in the distance. Even still, it was the clothes that upstaged the view: a breathtaking collection that left me wanting it all, and appreciating the different vantage point from which to view the collection, outside the realm of Paris. Olivier Rousteing of Balmain also chose to show his Resort collection in L.A., while celebrating the opening of his first West Coast boutique. As expected, his debut came with the works; staged in a house in the hills of Beverly, a residence filled with the designer’s army of models and beautiful people aplenty. We sat down with the beloved designer minutes before showtime to talk all things L.A. As this is the fashion issue, we have, of course, canvassed the Golden State to report on your need-toknows for fall (trends, accessories, treatments—the important stuff). And let’s not forget our IMG cover stars—our first male-female duo on the cover. Mind you, it isn’t just any guy, but male supermodel Jordan Barrett. With out-of-this world features, he holds his own alongside Barbara Palvin—no easy feat! The talent parade continues with California girl and supermodel Hailey Clauson, who stars in the season’s most colorful concoctions, and model/dancer/singer/DJ Victoria Brito, who proves that the classic tweed jacket can look fresh and young when recontextualized in the right mix. Which brings us back to the question of why California, and why now for its moment in the sartorial sun? I think the answers lie in the state’s melting pot of global citizens, fostering a more open mind-set; the creative industries in our midst; and the way Californians place a premium on lifestyle every day. We are a group of risk-takers and dreamers. In the game of fashion, how refreshing is that?

C PEOPLE Who’s who behind the scenes of this month’s issue, plus their favorite California places

When not reading Leslie L. Lawrence books, Hungarian-born Barbara Palvin is modeling across the globe for houses such as Prada, Louis Vuitton, Miu Miu, Nina Ricci and Chanel. For C’s cover story, the 23-yearold teamed up with friend Jordan Barrett, showcasing model behavior in “Rogue Riders,” p.156. C SPOTS • I like the live shows and the delicious cocktails at Pour Vous while I dance my feet off • Gjusta in Venice for the smell of fresh pastries • TomGeorge, an Italian restaurant with two Hungarian owners in DTLA

Maya Harris A native of Connecticut, C’s new photo editor, Maya Harris, has held posts as a costume designer and stylist, as well as digital photo editor at Playboy. “Yes, this issue involved a lot more clothing than I’m used to, coming from Playboy,” says the West Hollywood-based Harris. “Truly, I’ve dreamt of working at a fashion magazine since I was a kid plastering my walls with pages from Vogue.” C SPOTS • The Oaks Gourmet in Franklin Village for their epic bacon breakfast burrito • Opening Ceremony in WeHo when I’m feeling fancy • My dog loves Wattles Park—it’s a good hang

C 66 SEPTEMBER 2017

Victoria Brito “It’s always an honor to be a part of the creative family at C—they make fashion fun, and their creative vision is a breath of fresh air!” says Brazilian-born, New York-based model Victoria Brito, who capped off the shoot for “Material Girl,” p.186, with a trip to the Polo Bar. Discovered by Bruce Weber at the age of 13 when he shot her for W, Brito is also a dancer and DJ. C SPOTS • NeueHouse in Hollywood • Horseback riding in Malibu • Bottega Louie in Downtown L.A., one of my favorite restaurants

C People 1

Jordan Barrett “I had a fantastic time with Barbara [Palvin] and getting to shoot on the coast of California with the incredible team,” says Australian model Jordan Barrett of this month’s cover portfolio, p.156. With campaigns for the likes of Tom Ford, Balmain, Versace and more to his name, Barrett is the new face of Paco Rabanne’s 1 Million fragrance, and is also designing his own eyewear and clothing collection under the label Sedated, while working as a DJ and photographer on the side. C SPOTS • Gracias Madre in West Hollywood • Neptune’s Net in Malibu • Los Liones Canyon Trail in Pacific Palisades followed by a jump in the ocean, naturally

Zoey Grossman “This story is special to me because it’s an homage to Helmut Newton and Guy Bourdin, two of my favorite photographers,” says lenswoman Zoey Grossman of shooting model Hailey Clauson for “Plastic Fantastic” (p.170). For this issue, Grossman also went backstage at the Dior Cruise 2018 show in Calabasas (p.198). She is currently balancing projects for major publications and brands such as Swarovski while working on her first photo art show. C SPOTS • L.A.’s The Paperbag Princess, a designer vintage store that has so many hidden gems • The Way We Wore on La Brea for a good party dress or outfit • You would never know Crossroads Kitchen on Melrose is vegan—the food is amazing

Hailey Clauson “Zoey knows how to make a woman feel sexy and confident—you know you’re always going to get great results,” says model Hailey Clauson of working with photographer Zoey Grossman for “Plastic Fantastic,” p.170. “She was actually the first person to ever shoot me when I was just 13,” the 22-year-old adds. Clauson, who grew up in Thousand Oaks, Calif., has walked the runways for Gucci and Prada and appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Currently based in New York, she plans to move back to L.A. in October. C SPOTS • The Pocket Burger Shack in Huntington Beach for the best tri-tip bowls and burgers • I love camping in Carpinteria • Sushi Oaks in Newbury Park is a hole-inthe-wall where I went with my family once a week when I was a kid

Teddy Charles “Everyone had fun on this shoot,” says Parisborn, New York-based hairstylist Teddy Charles, who lent his talents to “Rogue Riders,” p.156. “It was very easygoing.” Charles’ résumé spans a Vogue Italia cover with Peter Lindbergh to a Harper’s Bazaar cover with Miley Cyrus. C SPOTS • L.A.’s Sushi Park • Earthbar in Brentwood for my daily juice • Santa Monica’s Number One Beauty Supply is the best spot for products

Lindsey Tramuta Kelly Atterton

“Rarely has there been a year with so many fashion-related exhibits and new centers,” says Paris-based journalist Lindsey Tramuta, who previews the City of Light’s latest offerings in “See the Light,” p.143. Author of the bestselling book The New Paris: The People, Places & Ideas Fueling a Movement, Tramuta’s podcast The New Paris continues what the book began, covering ongoing cultural shifts, trends and the movers and shakers propelling Paris forward. C SPOTS • Salt House in San Francisco for excellent cocktails, incredible bread, poutine and a lovely dining room • Plow for San Francisco’s best brunch and bottomless coffee • Book Soup in L.A.

In this issue, Santa Monica-based Elizabeth Varnell wrote about Dior’s Cruise 2018 presentation (p.198) and profiled Balmain’s creative director (p.182): “As I spoke with Olivier Rousteing, he quoted Saint Laurent’s lament about never seeing his own show,” says Varnell, the former style director of San Francisco magazine. “It led to him confessing that seeing his ballet costumes onstage at the Opéra de Paris is one of his proudest moments.” C SPOTS • S.F.’s SPQR for a bowl of warm bucatini • The vintage jewelry vitrine at The Row on Melrose Place • Airstream camping with my family at Emma Wood State Beach in Ventura

C 68 SEPTEMBER 2017

“I love covering beauty as the seasons are changing—it tends to inspire personal change as well,” says C’s new beauty director, Kelly Atterton, who surveys fall’s most compelling beauty news for this month’s issue. Previously the West Coast editor of Allure (with prior posts at Vanity Fair and Vogue), Atterton advises emerging brands and multinational corporations in her spare time. C SPOTS • Hardly a day goes by that I don’t stop and get a perfect iced latte at Blackwood Coffee Bar in Hollywood • Surya Spa in Pacific Palisades for revitalizing ayurvedic body treatments • The Detox Market for the latest in clean beauty products

Merging the worlds of fine art and high fashion is all in a day’s work for this L.A.-based model-turned-designer, whose eponymous womenswear label turns three this fall. Her celebrated style—practical yet polished minimalism—draws influence from her family life with her four children and actor husband, Balthazar (a great-grandson of J. Paul Getty), and her passion for the art world. “There is such an incredible, vast creative community in California,” she says. “I’m very inspired by the many artists living here.” rosettagetty.com.

WH (opener) It Gurl Replicating Adwoa Aboah’s freewheeling Preservation Hall dance moves in Miu Miu’s new fall campaign is like trying to define her métier. The 25-year-old British-Ghanaian model and activist—who founded the nonprofit Gurls Talk to establish a place for teens to tell their stories— holds a diverse résumé in step with her insatiable inquisitiveness. On the heels of a year spent walking for Dior, Fendi, Versace and Moschino, and appearing on the covers of American Vogue and i-D, Aboah penned a United Nations Foundation girls’ leadership summit address. Altogether, the multihyphenate creative’s unflinching search for emotional truth, coupled with her keen sense of humor (a quip that Morgan Freeman could play her in a biopic went viral), earns Aboah a spot among the new guard of women to watch this fall. gurlstalk.com. • ELIZABETH VARNELL

In September, the brand is set to unveil its 22,000-square-foot flagship on West Hollywood’s Sunset Boulevard, featuring a one-of-a-kind experience within the famed ivy-covered walls. Among its offerings are a Levi’s pop-up shop and a store featuring talent from the Council of Fashion Designers of America, as well as concerts presented by Interscope Records, bouquets by Flower Girl Los Angeles and a restaurant headed by Bill Chait of République and Bestia fame, along with salon and fitness concepts. “It will be a venue for all things L.A.—music, art, design and, of course, the coolest brands,” says Fred Segal president John Frierson. 8500 Sunset Blvd., W.H., 877-411-5893; fredsegal.com.

JEAN Genies “I felt customers are ready for newness, new fits and fashion-driven, covetable pieces,” says L.A. denim trailblazer Jerome Dahan (founder of Citizens of Humanity and 7 For All Mankind), who, along with designer Noam Hanoch, is set to debut Jean Atelier this fall. “Jerome and I are inspired to create aspirational pieces that blend a designer sensibility with authentic denim craftsmanship,” says Hanoch of the luxury line, which counts the Cinch paperbag fit and the ’80s-inspired Flip among this season’s standouts. jeanatelier.com.

JESSICA Hart

Jessica Hart’s favorite thing about California is likely to make most Angelenos cringe. “I love being able to drive. I know everyone complains about traffic, but I can’t drive in New York and I miss it,” says the Australian model, whose signature gap-toothed smile has graced the pages of Sports Illustrated and taken more than a few turns down the Victoria’s Secret runway. These days the NYC-based Hart is more likely to be found sitting front row than walking a catwalk, but she has no shortage of off-duty projects vying for her attention, including a complete retool of her makeup line, Luma Cosmetics, adding skincare to the roster, plus designing a swimsuit with Solid & Striped, due out next year. Topping her fall musts? More frequent trips West to visit her sister in Silver Lake. Here, Hart shares what else she’s coveting for the season.

“It’s looser in the best possible way,” says chef Christopher Kostow of The Charter Oak, his highly anticipated restaurant with business partner Nathaniel Dorn that opened in Napa this summer. Kostow is a man known for his deftly honed, exacting technique—and the three Michelin stars he’s received at the acclaimed The Restaurant at Meadowood. Now, he is flexing a different sort of culinary muscle in a historic building located in St. Helena, with chef Katianna Hong, who worked alongside him as chef de cuisine at The Restaurant. With a hearth-centric kitchen and a beautiful farm table that “pulls the kitchen out,” The Charter Oak’s convivial atmosphere extends to outdoor seating under mature mulberry trees. Whole-animal cooking and shared familystyle service do not compromise quality ingredients or preparation, making for a deliciously simple, seasonal menu. 1050 Charter Oak Ave., St. Helena, 707-302-6996; thecharteroak.com.

Ten years ago, Sabine and Anian Schmitt’s search to find the most vibrant roses in the world ended in Ecuador, known for its ideal growing conditions and high social and environmental standards. Today, the Schmitts still source the Ecuadorian blooms for their luxury floral and gift business, OnlyRoses, with locations in London, the Middle East and their first U.S. outpost, newly opened in Beverly Hills. Designed by architect Roberto Baciocchi (known for his Prada and La Perla store designs), the new boutique reflects old Hollywood glamour in a black, white and eggplant palette with brass detailing. OnlyRoses’ devoted clients already include the likes of Hermès, Dolce & Gabbana and Cartier. 9631 Brighton Way, B.H.; only-roses.com.

FASHION FORCE ELYSE WALKER TAPS DESIGNER AMBER LEWIS TO DRESS HER NEWPORT BEACH HOME

WH (bits)

It is no easy feat to build a fashion empire around a brick-and-mortar business, yet that is precisely what retail maven Elyse Walker has managed to do, growing the eponymous business she started in 1999 from a 900-square-foot shop in Pacific Palisades into the thriving multipronged enterprise it is today. That includes the e-commerce platform Forward by Elyse Walker, a robust in-house stylist program and, most recently, a 12,000-square-foot boutique in Newport Beach. “We build a store like a community,” says Walker of her approach. “We want to build relationships and entrench ourselves in the community; that is how I built my store in the Palisades, and I recognized that in Newport.” So last November, three months after opening her Lido Marina Village location, Walker and her husband set their sights on a modern Cape Cod-style house, just a mile from the boutique and still very much in the throes of construction. “It was covered in paper and cardboard

with dust everywhere,” recalls Walker. “But we lifted the cardboard and saw the cathedral ceilings and the raw wood and we knew.” After promptly telling the broker they would take it—“I’m a buyer, that’s what I do,” Walker explains—she turned her attention to outfitting the four-bedroom home, tapping Calabasas-based designer Amber Lewis to give the weekend house a beachy yet eclectic feel. “Elyse will pair a leather jacket with a frilly skirt and it somehow works,” explains Lewis. “She knows what she wants. I showed her options, and she answered.” Tasked with completing the project in only two months, Lewis sourced more than half of the home through her store, Shoppe by Amber Interiors, playing up the structure’s natural floors and

white-paneled walls with interesting textiles and very simple furnishings. Adhering to a palette of blue, black and white, and keeping Walker’s love of pattern and texture top of mind, she layered in nautical elements via artwork and light fixtures, including an earthy hemp chandelier from Serena & Lily in the master bath, while incorporating “funky” rugs to keep it from feeling too preppy. For the outdoor area, Walker was inspired by a loungey restaurant in Ibiza, which Lewis articulated via teak furniture, rattan ottomans and black Acapulco chairs. “I don’t like when people dress headto-toe in designer and I feel the same way about interior design,” says Walker. “I wanted something playful and less predictable.” • GILLIAN KOENIG

WHAT’S HOT Director’s Cut

“This was the last day of our shoot,” says HALLIE MEYERS-SHYER. “We all became really close, so directing these three [NAT WOLFF, PICO ALEXANDER and JON RUDNITSKY] became second nature by the end. Everyone was so good in the scene that we decided to do it all in one shot, and the boys really delivered.” Below: “This was our first day of shooting. In the movie, the guys play filmmakers, so we actually shot their short film.”

L.A. STORY

HALLIE MEYERS-SHYER MAKES HER MARK, WRITING AND DIRECTING A HEARTWARMING, MODERN ROMANTIC COMEDY

In the new film Home Again, recently separated Alice (played by Reese Witherspoon), returns home to California to raise her young daughters in a sundappled Spanish-style house that once belonged to her director father. When her (almost) ex visits, he remarks, “You’ve really made it your own.” The same can be said for the film’s writer-director, Hallie MeyersShyer. Daughter of Nancy Meyers and Charles Shyer, the creators of some of the most beloved (and stylish) movies of the last 25 years (Father of the Bride, Something’s Gotta Give, The Holiday), the first-time filmmaker has put her own stamp on the scenes and the setting. It’s no surprise to learn the 29-year-old Meyers-Shyer caught the bug early on, while on set. “I was always drawn to it,” she says. “My parents nurtured my interest and educated me. We watched so many movies growing up, and I really came into it as a writer.” After graduating from The New School and attending USC for a year, she dove into screenwriting. She cites

Above: “This was such a fun scene to direct. It’s probably our biggest comedy scene, so having two genuinely funny people made it a lot easier.” Left: “After seeing hundreds of actors for the part of Harry, we cast Pico Alexander about two weeks before shooting. This was his first costume fitting, and I literally could not stop snapping pictures of him.” Below: “We were rehearsing the scene where Jon [Rudnitsky] drives REESE [WITHERSPOON] home and MICHAEL SHEEN shows up. It was a fun night other than the fact that Jon was deeply uncomfortable driving a stick shift, and we were afraid he might run over the camera operator.”

WH (bits) Far left: “Nat [Wolff] was so great in this scene. It’s our ‘big action scene,’ a comedic fight between Nat and Michael. Unfortunately, rain poured that morning...hence why Nat looks normal and I look like I’m going to Glastonbury.” Left: “This photo of me and my mom was taken right after we wrapped our last day of shooting. I’ll remember this moment forever.” Below: “This scene takes place at Michael’s office in Manhattan, but it was actually shot outside [the character] Alice’s house in Los Angeles. I’m very glad it wasn’t a windy night. Movie magic at its finest!”

Billy Wilder, Woody Allen and Cameron Crowe as inspirations for her work. Having penned the script, Meyers-Shyer knew she wanted to helm the project and decided there was only one place to shoot: L.A., where she grew up and lives today, in Benedict Canyon. “It was important to me for it to be a California story,” she says. “I was also feeling that in TV and film lately, L.A. was getting a bad rap.” The writer-director sought to paint a more romantic view inspired by 1960s and ’70s films like Shampoo and Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice. “I watched all these movies while I was writing,” she says. “I kind of wanted to show a cooler, Warren Beatty/Jack Nicholson Los Angeles.” Fittingly, she chose spots like The Tower Bar at Sunset Tower Hotel, Will Rogers State Beach and a private home in Malibu. But most of the scenes take place in and around Alice’s home, so finding the right space was key. “It needed to be a place you wanted to spend time in,” says MeyersShyer. “It had to have a certain magic that draws people in.” The Brentwood home they found is indeed like another character—interacting with Alice and her daughters, her mother and a trio of young filmmakers who are on the brink of a big break. Its whitewashed walls, lush landscaping and chic, relaxevd decor were cast as thoughtfully as the actors. “I wanted it to be a place you could really only get in L.A.” • KERSTIN CZARRA

Size is but a number at 11 Honoré. A spirit of inclusion surrounds the L.A.based e-commerce company, which champions women who have difficulty finding something fashionable in their size. Founders Kathryn Retzer and Patrick Herning work with Carlo Libaridian, who once oversaw the assortment of designer fashion, couture and fur at Neiman Marcus, to offer straight-from-the-runway looks in sizes 10 to 20. “It’s all about style,” says Herning, a marketing veteran and 11 Honoré’s CEO. Among the in-demand designers who are featured on the site, Prabal Gurung, Christian Siriano and Michael Kors have already made a point to appeal to plussize customers. However, for labels such as Monique Lhuillier, Haney, Marchesa, Baja East and Zac Posen, 11 Honoré serves as a point of entry to this important demographic. “It’s genius to create a place for this very underserved market” and to offer it online, says Mary Alice Haney, whose eponymous L.A. label is known for its drapey silhouettes. Planning to proffer some of her celebrity-favored pieces on 11 Honoré, including a satin jumpsuit and a split-sleeve minidress, Haney adds, “Our goal is to design glamorous cocktail looks for clients of every age and size.” On the horizon for Retzer, a former editor at Vogue and Town & Country and the online retailer’s creative director, is a trip to scope European Spring/Summer 2018 collections in search of designers to add to the luxury-inclusive mix. Also in the works are ideas for collaborations and 11 Honoré’s own line. “I want to give [our customer] the most beautiful, fashion-forward option that I can,” Retzer says. 11honore.com. • KHANH T.L.

FASHION BRUCE WEBER’s new campaign shots for FRAME.

Frame’s founders Jens Grede and Erik Torstensson are shaping denim’s new world order one spare, yet exacting, design at a time. “San Francisco, Los Angeles, Shanghai and Beijing are the global hubs now,” observes Grede, who just relocated his family from London to Beverly Hills to be closer to the epicenter of denim innovation. Only five years ago, L.A.’s blue-jean manufacturing mastery lured the two Swedes to the West Coast to launch Frame (the company is based in Culver City and London, and manufactures in Downtown L.A.). Now Grede and Torstensson are looking northward. The Bay Area’s role as a multicultural idea incubator drew them to San Francisco’s Fillmore Street, where they’re opening an airy new boutique. “Even the chefs here are doing what they can to disrupt old ideas,” says Grede, “which makes it a vibrant town.” The Pacific Heights shop’s exposed ceilings loom over a light-filled living room complete with curated basics such as sleek leather trenches for women and what Torstensson calls “lived-in” men’s T-shirts. A new campaign—shot by Bruce Weber, who received a box of jeans in the mail and carte blanche to shoot at will—is the latest example of Frame’s innovative genius. Weber’s 25 images, compiled by Grede and Torstensson into a short book, adds a tasteful touch to customized jeans. 2142 Fillmore St., S.F.; frame-store.com. • ELIZABETH VARNELL

GREG LAUREN DEVISES A NEW COLLECTION FOR MONCLER BY TAKING ITS JACKETS APART

Fashion (bits)

Master deconstructionist Greg Lauren has always admired families who walk down the street in New York or Paris clad in Moncler on a frigid day. When the storied brand started collaborating with labels that give you street cred on a cold street—Thom Browne, Junya Watanabe, Visvim—he felt a connection. “It was in the same way I find inspiration for my own collections, which is the constant deconstructing of things that are iconic and classic, and creating a new language out of them,” he says of Collide Greg Lauren & Moncler, which debuts this fall. “Maybe I manifested it.” When the brand approached Lauren about collaborating, he was ecstatic about the potential for blending old and new schools. He went to his studio on Melrose Avenue and started ripping up Moncler’s meticulously crafted down jackets before unveiling his designs to the brand in Milan. “For me,” he says, “the idea is not just to add a layer or a surface detail, but I really need to get into the psychology of the pieces and literally tear them apart in a way that becomes half Moncler, half Greg Lauren.” The resulting men’s and women’s collections use Moncler silhouettes slashed with Greg Lauren materials,

C 118 SEPTEMBER 2017

and then do the same in reverse: a firetruck-red puffer coat that’s classic on the top, frayed denim on the bottom; a long military parka in a signature Lauren silhouette, with that formidable lacquered nylon over the chest and arms. Does Lauren see any irony in an L.A. designer working on clothing for sub-freezing temperatures? He laughs, noting he’s built an entire line around being self-aware and contradictory (“I’ve worn every motorcycle jacket and still never ridden one”). “L.A. is the capital of the creative world right now. It’s the capital of reinvention. But I also wouldn’t put it past any of my customers to throw a jacket on here—as long as it dips below 60.” 328 N.

A Bold Journey

CHANEL’S LUCIA PICA EMBARKS ON A ROAD TRIP WITH A DISTINCT PURPOSE, ARRIVING AT A SPIRITED MIX OF CALIFORNIA-INSPIRED COLORS SEPTEMBER 2017 C 121

CHANEL’s global creative makeup and color designer LUCIA PICA.

When Lucia Pica, Chanel’s global creative makeup and color designer, approached the brand with her idea to hit the road to inform its next color palette, the suggestion generated internal buzz. “It’s about what’s happening right now and not being nostalgic about old photographs—being inspired by something that you have lived,” Pica explains. With a photographer and a videographer in tow, Pica embarked up the California coast, from L.A. to Big Sur, on the freewheeling trip that would forge Chanel’s new fall/winter makeup collection, aptly named Travel Diary. “We jumped in a big car with some snacks and a bit of pocket money,” she says. Stopping

Cuckoo for COCO

along the way to shoot anything that looked interesting, Pica was uncertain of the outcome. “In the daylight, it was super bright and everything was looking very blue and sable, a muted color palette.” Then the light changed. Among the 23-piece assortment, there’s First Light, a bright-orange lipstick inspired by a sunrise in Big Sur; City Lights, a quartet of shimmery eye shadows reminiscent of the lights of Downtown L.A. at night; and Night Fall, Pica’s favorite lip shade, comparable to the berries found among hillside foliage. Says Pica, “I like the idea of opposing something dreamy and poetic with something urban and real.” chanel.com. •

From ’90s-inspired bowl cuts to waist-grazing extensions, fall’s hair trends span a wide spectrum. “This season we are seeing strong, short cuts and lots of full and curly natural hair,” says stylist Jon Reyman, the co-owner of Spoke and Weal salon (spokeandweal.com), which has locations in L.A., Palo Alto and San Francisco, as well as NYC and Chicago. “If you cut your hair shorter, make sure you indeed do want a ‘look.’ Shorter hair is less versatile and more of a style in itself. Just like on the runway, the strongest models own the looks.” If committing to a short cut isn’t your thing, consider getting extensions, like Kim Kardashian or Margot Robbie. They trust their hair to Violet Teriti of Mèche Salon (mechesalonla.com) in Beverly Hills. Commenting on the Rapunzel hair trend, Teriti calls the style “extremely fashion-forward.” She only works with extensions made from virgin (untreated), Slavic hair. “It’s incredibly soft to touch and can be reused for up to a year,” she says. Extensions prices vary from $2,000-$6,000 for the initial visit.

On Point Microneedling therapy has amassed a fan base by delivering serious skin-smoothing results— stimulating collagen production by penetrating the skin with multiple tiny needles. Infini RF Microneedling takes the treatment to new levels, adding radio frequency to the equation, resulting in greater lifting and tightening of target areas including the neck and the skin around the mouth and cheeks (it can even be used on scars). “It gives suppleness and volume to the skin naturally,” says San Diego-based dermatologist Dr. Melanie Palm, whose practice Art of Skin offers the service to clients looking for dramatic results with no surgery or downtime (in other words: everyone).

Beauty (bits) True Blood Germany-based beauty expert Dr. Barbara Sturm helped pioneer a procedure that extracts proteins from blood and uses them to promote healing. She applied it to skincare, creating the “blood facial,” which aims to support anti-inflammation, cell health and hydration. “I combine patients’ blood with hyaluronic acid to inject into the skin,” Sturm explains. She also created MC1, a custom, made-to-order “blood cream”— one of a range of unisex products that are all based on the same, healing premise. “My specialty is to make one look refreshed and younger without looking different.” Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Angela Bassett and Cher are among Sturm’s famous fans.

The latest? They’re newly incorporating Marmoreal—a speckled, engineered marble developed by Dzek in collaboration with British designer Max Lamb—as an option for the pieces. “I strive to live and work at the intersection of art and function,” says De Jong, who still continues her role as a production designer, with credits including Manchester by the Sea and Showtime’s Twin Peaks series. 846 S.

And nearly a third of those selected from around the world are from California—because being here nurtures authenticity! Two of our California subjects, Kelly Wearstler and Johnson Hartig, show different but complementary lifestyles—they both have that casual ease that epitomizes California living.”

Such diversity of scholarship and objects was central to the overarching theme of ‘translations’ between California and Mexico, revealing how the two places are irrevocably joined.”

A Wilder Nature

NAPAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S HARLAN FAMILY PUSHES INTO UNCHARTED TERRITORY WITH THE NEW PROMONTORY WINERY SEPTEMBER 2017 C 135

MENU Thirty years ago, Bill Harlan was hiking through the hills southwest of Oakville, scouting parcels of vineyard land for what would become Harlan Estate, one of Napa Valley’s most prized cabernet sauvignons. Along the way, he stumbled upon a steeply sloped, rocky landscape that wasn’t vineyard land at all, but a dramatic expanse of forest, grassland and creek. “It was a whole different scale than what he had been thinking about,” his son, Will Harlan, says, “and no part of it was for sale.” Still, Bill had a feeling great wine could be made there, and when a portion became available in 2008, he bought it—and continued buying until he owned 840 acres, only 80 of which were planted with grapes. “We think about it as a small national park,” Will jokes, but there is an underlying truth there, too. The terrain is distinct from the rest of Napa

Valley: It sprawls through the Oakville and Yountville viticultural areas, as well as undesignated land, and it includes a soil type and climate variations found nowhere else in the valley. It has also inspired the Harlans to create a new wine that expresses a wilder sense of place, and build an ambitious new Howard Backen-designed winery to house it. Called Promontory, the wine has become one of the most buzzed-about on the market since its first release, the 2009 vintage. It breaks with many of the traditions of the Harlans’ prestige labels, starting with the viticulture. The grapes are grown in line with the natural principles of the Japanese farmer and philosopher Masanobu Fukuoka. The wine, made by David Cilli, ages for five years in large Austrian casks, instead of the expected French barriques. About 1,000 cases are produced each year, with plans to increase to 4,000 or 5,000 cases. A bottle of Promontory sells for $450 to subscribers, and Continued on p.204

Mix Master When he opened DTLA’s Mo-Chica restaurant in 2009, chef Ricardo Zarate broadened Angelenos’ understanding of Peruvian cuisine and complex, delicious ceviches. Ever since Mo-Chica closed, the city has awaited Zarate’s next step. This summer, he unveiled Rosaliné, his latest restaurant, housed in a brighter iteration of the former Comme Ça space on Melrose.

The family-owned Brown Estate has steadily built a following over the past 20 years, producing its highly regarded estate zinfandels and other varietal wines in a remote part of Napa Valley. Now its goods are much more accessible, thanks to the tasting room in downtown Napa dubbed Brown Downtown. San Francisco-based designer Catherine Kwong crafted the interiors of the 2,400-square-foot space, set in what was originally the Napa Valley Register building. Compared to the estate, Brown Downtown has “a sleek, urban and youthful” feel, co-founder Coral Brown says, with original exposed brick, warm woods and contemporary touches. 1005 Coombs St., 2nd Fl., Napa, 707-963-2435; brownestate.com.

TROPIC THUNDER

CHEF MAYCOLL CALDERÓN SHAKES UP SILVER LAKE WITH HIS EXOTICALLY HIP TAKE ON MEXICAN SEAFOOD Boulevard. Similar to their restaurant Huset in Mexico City, the two employed a garden-centered space, but this time without inside seating. The name, Tintorera,, comes from the wonderfully kitschy Mexican shark-hunting film made in 1977, two years after Jaws. Meyenberg chose Acapulco’s golden era in the 1950s as the theme. All the decor comes from Mexico—pale turquoise cement tiles, rattan lampshades, mismatched wooden chairs from Mexico City’s vintage markets. Flowering vines climb a weathered brick wall covered in a giant mural by the artist Seher, depicting the goddess of the sea amid tintoreras (sharks). But forget tacos and margaritas. Calderón’s contemporary vocabulary reflects Mexico City’s white-hot food scene and his peripatetic life. His food is rigorously seasonal, simple yet sophisticated, and most importantly, delicious. The Venezuelan-born chef, who spent much of his career opening restaurants around the world for French chef JeanGeorges Vongerichten, is excited to be cooking in L.A. “You can find literally everything here,” he says, including “awesome Japanese seafood.” Tracking down good masa has been hardest. “Masa, for me, that’s sacred,” he says. But he’s finally discovered Continued on p.204

When one of Mexico City’s top chefs decides to open his first U.S. restaurant in Silver Lake, it’s a very big deal. And it’s all because Maycoll Calderón’s business partner, Walter Meyenberg, began frequenting a tattoo shop in L.A. After exploring and subsequently falling in love with the terrain, he convinced Calderón to come along to check out restaurants in the area. Before long, the two ended up walking the city in search of just the right neighborhood to open an edgy Mexican seafood concept. They found the perfect spot: a huge enclosed outdoor garden on Sunset

THIS FALL, PARIS BECKONS WITH CULTURAL RICHES AROUND EVERY TURN SEPTEMBER 2017 C 143

FLIGHTS OF FANCY From a spotlight on haute couture visionaries to the return of a grande dame in luxury lodging, September kicks off a season of high culture in the City of Light. Leading the charge is the muchanticipated retrospective, “Christian Dior, Couturier du Rêve,” the largest fashion exhibition ever staged in Paris, at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs (lesarts decoratifs.fr), running through January 7. The exhibit marks the fashion house’s 70th anniversary, with more than 300 gowns designed by Christian Dior and the six couturiers who succeeded him (including current creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri); many of the pieces are from the Dior Heritage collection and have never before been displayed in Paris. Ephemeral as it may be, the city is also getting a permanent fashion hub when the Musée Yves Saint Laurent Paris (museeyslparis.com) opens its doors on October 3. Set in the historical couture house

With a spate of new in-air perks for business- and La Première-class cabins on mainly long-haul journeys, Air France has taken high-flying to the next level.

The first-class flyers in La Première can also imbibe cocktails developed by Colin Field, head bartender at Bar Hemingway of the Ritz Paris, considered by many to be the world’s best mixologist. Other creature comforts include a chic, unisex La Première sleep suit made of breathable cotton fabric in classic black, and a matching comfort kit complete with slippers and socks. Aboard Air France’s Boeing 777 aircrafts, an ultraprivate designer suite offers digs outfitted for serene sleep, with heavy curtains, a fully flat bed, a plush pillow and a duvet. Although there’s no shortage of treats to be had at 35,000 feet, one of the sweetest details on offer for L.A.- and San Franciscobound flights is “La gomme à mâcher,” the airline’s new chewing gum in two signature, dessert-inspired flavors: pistachio macaron and crème brûlée. airfrance.us. • MARTINE BURY

UP CLOSE & Personal

ARTIST LOIE HOLLOWELL EMOTES HER INTIMATE MOMENTS IN THE ABSTRACT Loie Hollowell credits her instinct to explore radical matter in her artwork to her mother. “She was very open with talking about her body and teaching us about sex and being strong, independent women,” the artist muses, thinking back on her childhood in a simple converted barn nestled just outside of Woodland, Calif. Once Hollowell started having relationships of her own, sexuality infused her work—early paintings were figurative; she calls them “didactic” images of sexual acts. Then, a few years ago, Hollowell found out she was pregnant, and decided she did not want to have a child with her then-partner. The fallout for both parties changed something at her source. “I didn’t realize how emotional it would be and I started trying to paint the sensations in my body and my mind. That’s when the abstractions started happening.” C 152 SEPTEMBER 2017

Hollowell’s often symmetrical, sculptural paintings originate from moments of intimacy that she represents through abstracted shapes, then pares down and grounds with a horizon or a sight line until the work becomes universal— suddenly a narrative emerges from the colors she’s used and the textures generated from paints she’s layered. Critics have commented that her work draws from American modernist painters, second-wave feminist art and neo-tantric artists. Pace Gallery owner Marc Glimcher spotted Hollowell’s work last year in Marfa, Texas, at a group show that paired artwork and film from the 1930s and ’40s with contemporary artists exploring concepts such as the sublime and the body. After nearly a year of wooing, he brought the 34-year-old artist on board. For “Point of Entry,” her first exhibition at the gallery’s Palo Alto outpost, Hollowell has

created what she calls sister or sibling paintings. Each painting has another painting that is exactly its opposite, both in color and space: convex becomes concave, background becomes foreground. “It was a way for me to slow down,” she says, “and create a painting that could be almost the same but have a totally different viewing experience.” The results are moving and grounded in a subject matter that’s particularly pertinent. It isn’t a new thing to be so upfront about sexuality, Hollowell notes, citing contemporary figures such as Amy Schumer alongside icons like Judy Chicago and Georgia O’Keeffe. For her, though, the trick is to keep the art coming from her individual experience and not a larger political gesture. “The strongest critiques are the most personal ones,” she says.

A snapshot of a street sign surrounded by blue sky heralded Balmain creative director Olivier Rousteing’s recent arrival in Los Angeles. At once his 4.6 million Instagram followers could see that he was standing on Melrose Place, mere steps from the French maison’s first West Coast outpost. “When we talk about the American dream, I think it’s L.A. that we’re talking about,” says Rousteing, dressed head-to-toe in Balmain black while seated on a cerulean blue sofa inside the light-filled shop. “Here you imagine the long road trip to the desert, but you can also see the beautiful mansion in Beverly Hills, a chill Silver Lake neighborhood, the surf in Malibu. There are very few cities in the world where you can associate one place with so many styles,” he adds. Rousteing, who, at 31, is still one of the youngest talents ever tapped to lead a Parisian fashion house, is also one of the world’s most watched. In addition to designing six collections a year for men and women, as well as posting on his social media platform, he oversees a house with 7.1 million Instagram followers who catalog—and comment on—his every move. He was raised by adoptive parents in Bordeaux, studied at Paris’ École Supérieure des Arts et Techniques de la Mode and spent five years honing his eye at Roberto Cavalli. Then he arrived at Pierre Balmain’s maison, a place once known for producing elegant shifts and bell-shaped skirts. If

Feature (tbd) Clockwise from top left: A noirish fringed resort collection look and a frothy pink confection both hint at Rousteing’s recent classical ballet costumes for the Paris Opera. The green-toned exterior of the new Balmain boutique on Melrose Place is designed by Studio KO. The boutique interior’s black marble floors are inset with beige French limestone. A look from Spring/ Summer 2012, Rousteing’s firstever catwalk presentation for the label.

Christophe Decarnin, who helmed the storied couture house from 2007 to 2011, threw open its doors with rocker-chic ripped jeans, safety-pinned T-shirts and padded blazers, Rousteing set the maison ablaze with his heavily embellished, skin-baring bondage dresses and mass digital appeal. Even as Rousteing stokes a revolution at Balmain, he still looks to the house’s founder—and his archives—for inspiration. The L.A. boutique takes design cues from Pierre Balmain’s Tuscan villa on the island of Elba. For Studio KO designer Olivier Marty, the contrast between the vacation house’s “modernist and ambitious” egg-shaped exterior and the classical designs that fill its rooms served as a leitmotif for the Melrose space. Stark, brushed-black marble floors play off thickly plastered Mediterranean walls. “There were porcelain swans and beautiful vases inside the Elba house,” Marty says, explaining that Rousteing asked for additional elaborate vintage pieces to conjure up a properly residential feel in the boutique. The space and its adjoining courtyard offer Rousteing a welcome break from the Parisian crucible. “There’s a spirit of youth and freedom here that you have nowhere else—you don’t feel judgement,” he notes. “In Paris, you feel that if you are young, if you are too creative, it can be an obstacle. Here it feels inspiring.” It also helps that many of Rousteing’s friends and members of his international star-studded “Balmain Army”—who are regularly spotted in his designs—live nearby. The high-profile battalion includes Beyoncé, Rihanna and Kanye West. In 2016, Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer, and Naomi Campbell fronted Balmain’s spring campaign, and Rousteing himself recently Continued on p.204

Due to his massive Instagram presence, Rousteing often hears, “You’re so global, people forget you’re French.” But he believes “being French doesn’t mean that you can’t be international.”

Across wide swaths of scrub brush in the expansive Las Virgenes Canyon Open Space Preserve, a glamorous village built of burlap and rope—all secured by imposing metal tent stakes—arose one sun-drenched summer afternoon. As an international fashion coterie including Charlize Theron, Anjelica Huston, Rihanna, Freida Pinto, Laura Dern, Anna Dello Russo and Juno Temple assembled (with the assistance of well-positioned ATVs) to see Dior’s Cruise 2018 collection, Maria Grazia Chiuri, the house’s first female creative director,

conjured up her vision of how women navigate the natural world. Bags containing lace-up boots with no-nonsense rubber soles hung at the ready, an early indication that Chiuri’s women would glide through the elements, undeterred by a bit of dust or an errant tumbleweed. A second hint came from Peter Philips, creative director of Dior Makeup. His task—to reimagine the visage of a “sun-kissed girl who’s been hiking in nature”—required skillful manipulation of his trove of powders, creams and brushes. “It’s a very natural, very raw look,” he said, pointing to the autumnal tones

that rendered each model “fresh-faced without being tan.” On this warm evening, as guests and creatives alike awaited sunset —L.A.’s golden hour—Philips toned up the already-present earthy glow on face after face. Brick-hued lipstick applied under cheekbones gave faces a subtle, flushed glint. “It’s almost an athletic look, like you’ve been running,” he said.

Georgia O’Keeffe,” he added, an apt reference given that the iconic artist was known for navigating the wilds of her New Mexico ranch in a monochromatic wardrobe. O’Keeffe was a through line for Chiuri (born and raised in Rome), who sought out nomadic, powerful female figures while sketching looks for the show. The Dior creative director, who formerly co-helmed Valentino, had a firsthand look at the painter’s

work and personal wardrobe—recently on display at the Brooklyn Museum—as she designed the texture- and pigment-rich resort collection. Befitting the sudden temperature drops and windstorms characteristic of the American West, Chiuri even devised subtle midi-length coats that take cues from O’Keeffe’s austere, sometimes handmade multilayered wardrobe. Chiuri cited images of the artist in the Southwest

desert, photographed by her partner, Alfred Stieglitz, as a source of inspiration in the show notes. Milliner Stephen Jones, also on hand awaiting the Calabasas show’s start, arranged the Parson’s hats he designed (reminiscent of O’Keeffe’s earnest sunblocker) with earth-toned bandanas worn underneath. To accommodate both toppers, hairstylist Guido Palau curled locks before

weaving them into loose braids and wrapping the ends with bits of leather. Errant strands framed faces while the lengths remained secure. The pragmatic riff on a pre-Raphaelite mainstay proved to be a thoroughly modern upgrade for prairie plaits. Other nods to nature figured prominently on the Las Virgenes preserve as models dressed and the sun descended. Chiuri, who is particularly entranced by

female shamans, created T-shirts printed with illustrations from writer Vicki Noble’s feminist tarot cards and skirts with rough animal shapes inspired by the Lascaux cave paintings (first replicated on fabric by Monsieur Christian Dior in a 1951 collection). Then, just as the warm tones of the evening sunset blanketed the hills, the show, a riot of rich tone-on-tone color, began. dior.com. • SEPTEMBER 2017 C 203

about $600 retail—about half the cost of a bottle of Harlan Estate. “We think of it as a mineral expression of cabernet, rather than a fruit expression of cabernet,” Will says of Promontory. “The property is further south, higher in elevation and has a unique topography that almost creates its own weather patterns. It makes for a fresh, foresty, much wilder-seeming wine.” There are changes beyond what’s in the bottle too. Thirty-year-old Will, Promontory’s managing director, has taken a more central role from his father, who is now 77. And in June, Promontory became the only Harlan property to offer a peek behind the curtain: For $200, visitors can make an appointment to see the clean-lined, industrial-inspired winery on the nearby Oakville Grade and taste the wine in cask, along with current and library vintages. An abbreviated tasting on Saturday mornings is $50. At Harlan Estate, or their other property, Bond, “we never had visitors—we wanted to keep it shrouded in mystery,” Will says. “But at Promontory, we wanted a place where people could come and see for themselves what goes into the wine and how we think about things.” 1601 Oakville Grade, Oakville, 707-944-0125; promontory.wine. • MICHALENE BUSICO

got behind the camera to shoot Crawford’s 18-year-old son, Presley Gerber, for the fall campaign. And who can forget the many times Rousteing has dressed the Kardashian clan, even recruiting Kendall Jenner, ever a Balmain Army fixture, to tease his massively successful H&M collaboration in 2015? Kim Kardashian West first met Rousteing at the Met Bell in 2013. “We just connected. I just remember him being so genuine,” she says. Kardashian West credits Rousteing with making some of her most memorable looks, including a bachelorette dress for the week of her wedding. “It was this short, long-sleeve tapestry dress with leather and all of these crystals,” she remembers. “And no one has really seen my wedding reception dress,” adds Kardashian West, of another favorite Rousteing designed for her. One of Rousteing’s early champions, Cher Coulter, also met him that year at the ball, when he dressed Kate Bosworth in a shocking pink minidress that looked downright demure with the addition of three-quarterlength sleeves. The L.A.-based stylist and designer found herself immediately smitten with the Rousteing’s highlow combinations. “The way he mixed denim with more luxurious crafted fabrics was cool-girl heaven to me,” she says. “I like it pared back with no makeup, undone hair and maybe a sneaker.” Beyond his designs, Coulter says Rousteing’s openness draws friends and fans alike. “He’s a true talent and a lovely guy who is very personable, which is why I think he’s become such a sensation,” she says. British transplant Rosie Huntington-Whiteley agrees. She remembers meeting Rousteing before promptly splitting the seam of a Balmain dress during her first fitting. She was mortified. “He laughed, joked and all was forgotten. I’m pretty sure I tried on the entire collection in that one fitting,” she adds. If his corps helps Rousteing hone designs, he relies on frequent collaborations for fresh ideas. “There’s no plan or strategy to collaborate,” he says. “It just happens—je me nourris, it’s feeding me. It’s nourishment. I’m learning from everything that’s outside my world.” Just this summer, Rousteing created ballet costumes for the Paris Opera, finalized headphones for Beats by Dre (with a campaign fronted by Kylie Jenner), not to mention launched a capsule collection of L’Oréal lipsticks in September. “I can talk to everybody with the collaborations. They can come to the Balmain world in so many different ways,” he explains. Rousteing clearly feels a visceral responsibility to engage with his fans. “I’ve always been an inclusive person. But sometimes fashion can take it as cheap. What they call cheap, I call open-minded. What they call thirsty, I would call generosity. It’s just a different way of seeing things.” •

a source. He likes to change out his menus all the time, depending on what’s in the markets. To start, he’s doing ceviches, aguachiles, tiraditos, and a tuna tartare with jalapeño emulsion, radishes and avocado. From an outdoor wood oven and grill, he’ll turn out subtly smoked vegetables, arroz con pollo with saffron-tinged adobo, and maybe a whole grilled fish or two. For now, he’s even doing the desserts—pan de elote (corn bread) with burnt milk, caramelized popcorn and— get this—mezcal ice cream with sal de gusano (agave worm salt). “I’m not afraid. I like to work crazy hours,” says Calderón. He’s in charge of wines, too. His list encompasses wines from Mexico, California, South Africa, New Zealand and more—anything punchy and crisp. The young, high-energy Mexico City mixologist David Mora designed the Mexican-accented cocktails dispensed from a tropical bar in one corner of the garden, which stocks not only mezcals, but also little-known Mexican spirits such as sotol, raicilla and bacanora. The cool speakeasy inside, with its palm-themed wallpaper and mahogany leather and brass stools, gets its own distinctive cocktail list. It’s a pretty sure bet Silver Lake will find the hip Mexican scene at Tintorero hard to resist.

11. 10.

Frequenting classic Beverly Hills hot spots was a major part of Tyler Ellis’ Los Angeles upbringing, so it’s no wonder the handbag designer—and daughter of the late fashion icon Perry Ellis—recently moved the headquarters of her eponymous label from NYC to L.A. “This city is such a special place to me,” says Ellis, whose luxe, contemporary bags have lured such A-list fans as Reese Witherspoon and Gigi Hadid. Here, she shares her favorite 90210 stomping grounds. • The Polo Lounge at The Beverly Hills Hotel. Even after all these years, I still can spend hours sipping rosé and people-watching in the garden. dorchestercollection.com. • Umberto for a quick blowdry and mani-pedi.

LUCY BOYNTON Actor

An air of mystery surrounds British actor Lucy Boynton. “I’m a very private person,” she admits. “I don’t tend to reveal too much of myself, which is why I love my job.” It’s a quality she shares with her characters—whether it’s Allison Adams in the Naomi Watts-fronted Netflix series Gypsy, Raphina in 2016’s critically acclaimed musical dramedy Sing Street, or opposite Nicholas Hoult as J.D. Salinger’s second wife, Claire Douglas, in the biopic Rebel in the Rye, slated for release in September. “The first impression of them isn’t everything that they are,” she says of the enigmatic characters she plays. “I enjoy that slow unraveling.” Boynton made her feature film debut portraying a young Renée Zellweger in 2006’s Miss Potter. “I’ve been working for, like, 10 years now, which is a very strange thing to say when you’re 23,” she laughs. “So much of this job is getting used to rejection, so to actually be working is nice.” The daughter of journalists, Boynton says her itinerant upbringing has proven helpful in navigating Hollywood. “I thrive on that nomadic lifestyle,” she says of splitting time between L.A., London and New York when she isn’t elsewhere shooting. Boynton will next appear as the elusive Countess Andrenyi in the Kenneth Branagh-directed film adaptation of Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express, out in November with Johnny Depp, Daisy Ridley and Michelle Pfeiffer. “My first day of work was in this exquisite train carriage with the entire cast,” she says. “To look down that carriage at all of these faces I’ve grown up admiring was surreal.” • LINDZI SCHARF
