Coming Up Rosy - The new blush isn't just for the cheek. Coco Mellors feels the flush.
If the eyes are the window to the soul, then our cheeks are the back door. What other part of the body so readily reveals our hidden emotions? Embarrassment, exuberance, delight, desire, all instantly communicated with a rush of blood. It's no wonder that blush has been a mainstay of makeup bags for decades: Ancient Egyptians used ground ochre to heighten their color; Queen Elizabeth I dabbed her cheeks with red dye and mercuric sulfide (which, combined with the vinegar and lead concoction she used to achieve her ivory pallor, is believed to have given her blood poisoning); flappers applied blush in dramatic circles to achieve a doll-like complexion, even adding it to their knees to draw attention to their shorter hemlines

Out of the Box - A biopic –made from Legos – for Pharrell Williams.
Anyone unfamiliar with Pharrell Williams’s background would be hard-pressed to make out his origins given his vast remit: designing Louis Vuitton’s menswear collections, overseeing a skin-care line, manning a digital auction house. Was he one of those Central Saint Martins guys? The heir to some crazy fortune, just seeing what stuck?

The Numbers Game - Age has long been like a board game: Hit 40, and you can no longer pass Go. But all of that is now changing, says Maya Singer.
All of a sudden, I couldn't stop crying. For some reason, around the turn of the year, I was waking up in tears. Then, the rest of the day, any little thing would set me off: train delays; a remix of Whitney Houston's Greatest Love of All playing at the gym; showering, weirdly. To say this was uncharacteristic would be an understatement. I am pathologically level-always quick to steady myself. Until now. I was a black hole, future dimming, my weeping the weeping of a collapsing star. What the hell was going on? Maybe, a friend offered, gently, as I wept to her over martinis, this is perimenopause.

Giddyup Cup - The storied Austrian glassware maker Lobmeyr looks to the American West.
Over the course of Lobmeyr's two-centuries-and-counting, the company has supplied drinkware to the House of Habsburg, collaborated with Josef Hoffman and the Wiener Werkstätte, and lit up Manhattan's Metropolitan Opera House with mesmerizing starburst-shaped chandeliers. This fall, it explores a new kind of frontier with its first-ever cowboy-themed collection. Launching this month, the Marfa Collection includes six tumblers and a pitcher inspired by the mystical town in Texas. It's a collaboration between the family-owned glassmaker, currently run by three cousins (Andreas, Leonid, and Johannes Rath) whose family has worked for the company for six generations, and Douglas Friedman, the well-known interiors and fashion photographer.

What's Going On With Pants? - The current (and oft-confusing) proliferation of them mirrors our lives today
We all have our ways of processing the world. The pastoral setting had put me in mind of Jonathan Anderson's fall 2024 Loewe show-its countrymanor-through-the-looking-glass vibe. One striking thing about that collection was its smorgasbord of trouser silhouettes: balloon-shaped cargos; swishy harem pants; one style I can best describe as überjodhpursexplosive volume through the thigh, tapered at the waist and calf. This is a very incomplete list.

Shape Shifter - Who is Lady Gaga now? A Hollywood superstar, a pop innovator, and a much happier, more grounded creature altogether. But as Jonathan Van Meter discovers, she's still an ever-evolving puzzle all her own.
Who is Lady Gaga now? A Hollywood superstar, a pop innovator, and a much happier, more grounded creature altogether. But as Jonathan Van Meter discovers, she's still an ever-evolving puzzle all her own.The first four or five or six times I encountered Lady Gaga, in London or Paris or New York, backstage in Vegas or Madison Square Garden or the O2 arena, at the top of the Skytree in Tokyo or from inside a giant replica of her fragrance bottle at a party at the Guggenheim, or even when, six years ago, we hung out in her kitchen in Malibu and danced and cried while listening to music-Like, real Italian style, she said-every single one of those times, in all of those places, she was both there and not there. She was viscerally present and accounted for but also somehow absent. This is not a complaint.

Mixed Company - An artist alliance between chef Daniel Humm and painter Francesco Clemente blossoms in a new bar
Three years ago, Francesco Clemente was in his Manhattan studio speaking with a friend, a devoted vegetarian, by phone. “She was asking me if we should go have a meal at Daniel’s restaurant,” recalls Clemente, meaning the much-acclaimed and then newly plantbased Eleven Madison Park, helmed by chef Daniel Humm. “I said to her, ‘I don’t know Daniel.’ And then the bell rang, and Daniel was in the room.”

Eastern Passage - On trips to India and Bangladesh, the novelist Nell Freudenberger struggled with what to wear—and what kind of woman she wanted to be.
I was 22 when I first went to India. In the late ’90s, the hippie trail from Agra to Jaipur to Rishikesh was still full of backpackers. Germans, Israelis, and Australians traversed the country in elephant-printed harem pants and Buddhist prayer beads, indulging in banana-pancake breakfasts and cannabis-laced bhang lassis. My boyfriend—a serious student of the subcontinent, equipped with maps, train tables, and a prestigious fellowship—planned to do India differently. We would dress respectfully, live on a local budget—less than $5 a day—and see places other backpackers missed. When we bought cannabis, it was from a farmer in a Himalayan village where they grew the world-famous Malana cream. We were two recent Harvard graduates in India, and we were all about doing our homework.
