Are you still going to cycle to
work? Thats what my mum said
when I told her Id got this job
(note: she is a woman who does
the vacuuming in hIgh heels
so, for her, wearing a kagoul on
my commute is an abomination).
Despite my dodgy cycling outft,
like most women I am easily
seduced by glAmour. For
me, though, our cover star sarah
Jessica Parker (page 122) is as
fabulous in ripped jeans as she is
in a Dior dress. But when I heard
street-style suPersTAr Anna
Dello russos insights into Italian
glamour (page 150) the bling, the
tan, the head-to-toe
FenDI at just 12 it
did make me think
the kagoul has to go...

He plays a serial

a sex addict in Fifty Shades Of Grey,
but in-between you can catch Jamie
Dornan in this 17th-century drama, as
a gorgeously dishevelled Robin Hood
type. I tried to steal my crossbow
but the costume department wouldnt
let me have it, he told us.
going out
for The oTher womaN
The new Cameron D
romcom is frst-class
movie-night-with-the-girls material. Diaz,
Leslie Mann and Kate Upton play three
women who discover theyre dating the
same guy and club together to exact revenge
(slipping oestrogen into his morning
smoothie, for example nice). Sex And The
Citys Patricia Field has done the costumes,
too, so expect brilliant wardrobe mash-ups.

i t s a h i tThe visor began as a
practical piece of
headgear to keep sporty
ladies of the Twenties
from breaking out in
freckles on court.

ch i c to fa b
After a boom in the
Fifties, when pale skin
was in vogue, visors
were reinvented in
avant-garde mesh and
Perspex in the Sixties.
Customising used to just be
for people who wanted some
snazzy initials on their
diary, or a way of
distinguishing one
handkerchief from
another. The luxury
market has taken
the idea and run
with it, though,
and nothing
displays this better than
Fendis Made To Order service.
The brands shiny new store
on New Bond Street opens on
2 May, and comes with a Made
To Order room, Fendis frst
such service in the UK.
Our favourite option
is using intrecciato, a
technique inspired by fur
workmanship but made
from strips of leather.
Letters are woven
into the bag, and its
available on the
Anna, top, and
Adele, above,
styles (Gagas
sac du jour).

Who The hip new Brooklyn band-to-know, headed up by pals Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig.
the sound Cool electro pop with foaty harmonies (theyve reduced audience members to tears at gigs).
they remind us a bit of Haim and Arcade Fire. We love Their kitsch matching vintage outfts.
listen to Their debut album, Wildewoman (its won plaudits across the pond), or see them live this
summer when they tour the UK.

youve lived in a lot of places are there elements from everywhere youve lived in what you do?Defnitely. Each collection
is about a specifc location
thats important to me
so far. I might run out!
My very frst collection
was to do with the beach
in Brazil where my family
spends each Christmas
and New Year. It was
what everyone needs for
ten days at a beach. But
a very glamorous beach!
so where is this pre-collection based on?I live in LA and Im
really familiar with
the whole scene
there. This collection
was based on
cholo and chola
people who are
Spanish Mexican
and Indian Aztec.
What music do you listen to when you are designing?I listen to music
specifc to the
collection. For
pre-fall it was a lot of
cumbia a Mexican
country and western
sound and Gwen
Stefani, because she had
that chola look going on
for a while. My research
isnt necessarily about
just the clothes. Its food,
music, architecture, living
environments everything
about that person in
that situation.
Which celebrities would you like to see wearing your clothes?
A lot of designers
are friends with the
celebrities they dress.
And I have no celebrity
friends! But I would
love Lake Bell to
wear my clothes.
Shes kooky and cool.
And I also love
Diane Kruger. The
only person whos
worn anything so
far is Pixie Lott.
Shes cute.
Alexander Lewis is
available from Avenue
32 (avenue32.com). Prices
start at 275.

Michael Kors on hisfashion obsessedupbringing and why
every girl needs a dressshe can dance in
ere going to put it out there: wed really like to be
friends with Michael Kors. More than 30 years in the
threads business and hes become not just a world-
famous designer but a fashion star in his own right, loved as much
for his quick-fre and hilarious wardrobe tips, or Kors-isms
(which made him a breakout hit in his stint as a judge on US
TV show Project Runway), as his sell-out chunky gold watches
and colour-block dresses. Hes always poked fun at the frostier
elements of high fashion, telling his models to strut down the
catwalk with a smile, declaring NO human being should wear
tight satin, and giving pre-show notes with fabulously Zoolander-
style instructions like Kill them with chic! Then theres the
massive celebrity fan club, featuring Gwyneth Paltrow, Blake
Lively and Michelle Obama, who famously picked one of his crisp

black shifts to wear for her inaugural offcial
First Lady portrait.
His fashion career began at the age of fve,
when Kors insisted his mother cut all the bows
off her wedding dress. By his late teens, he was
selling hand-stitched leather bags and copper
bracelets from a makeshift boutique in his
parents Long Island basement. And in 1981,
his label was offcially born.
The Michael Kors look has always been slick,
sporty and pure Manhattan, with clothes that
are as easy to wear as they are beautifully cut.
And, boy, have they sold. This year, he became
one of a handful of fashions billionaire
designers (his wealth in February rose by 20
million in a single DAY). Thirty years after his
very frst catwalk show, we caught up with the
man himself for a chat.
Does fashion take itself too
seriously?
Absolutely. I think sometimes we all need
to lighten up. Its fashion it should be fun.
I like when my models smile and have a bit
of personality because thats what brings
the clothes to life.
are fashion Designers born or maDe?
My entire family was fashion-obsessed. My
mother was a model and my grandmother was
a high-school principal whose favourite thing
was to say that she never wore the same outft
twice. Id sit at the dinner table listening to
them argue over the shade of a shoe for hours.
They defnitely were the starting point for me.
I wouldnt be where I am today without them.
DiD you always know youD make fabulous clothes?
I think so. I had a pretty strong point of view on my mothers
wedding dress when I was only fve years old!
what woulD you tell yourself 30 years ago?
Take your time. Get to know yourself, the type of clothes you want
to design and who you want to design for, then listen. Listen to your
customers, to your peers, to your mentors.
whos your ultimate Design hero?
I think Halston really blew the doors open
for American sportswear. He took this idea
of glamour and luxury and turned it into
something modern and sexy.
are you still very hanDs on?
Absolutely. Day to day, Ill meet with everyone
from design to PR to merchandising. I have a
lot of opinions, so I like to know whats going on.
so tell me what i neeD to know
about trenDs...
If a trend doesnt work for your body or your
lifestyle, then walk away.
whats new this season?
My s/s 2014 collection was all about slowing
down, bringing some charm and romance back
into our lives. I think when the weather gets
warmer, we all want to wear something a little
softer, a little more romantic.
what shoulD we buy this summer?
If youre going to have a summer romance,
you need a dress you can dance in. I think
theres something very romantic about a white
dress on sun-kissed skin.
ive got the trench. the rest of my
forever items are..?
A black cashmere sweater, a white blouse,
a pencil skirt and a great pair of trousers.
All perfectly tailored.
what Do you think keeps us coming
back to your stores?
You can get everything you need, whether
its a maillot [stretch jersey] gown or a fip-fop. A mother and
her teenage daughter can come in knowing that both can fnd
something they love. Its a great thing, and a modern way to shop.
is there anyone you still really want to Dress?
Kate Middleton. I admire the way she presents herself. And who
wouldnt want to dress a princess?
tell us something we Dont know about you
We made bodysuits for men once. But Ill never do that again.

When 21 January 2014, moments before the
Chanel Haute Couture s/s 2014 show
Where Backstage at the Grand Palais, Paris
What Kaiser Karl bucked the couture trend
usually a positively grown-up affair by
accessorising these sparkling versions of the
classic Chanel tweed suit with youthful
bumbags, elbow pads and (gasp!) trainers. This
was a masterclass in optical-illusion
dressing, too: those boxy crop tops are the
ultimate in waist slimming.

The guest list was INSANE. Im loving hanging
out with all my friends, Amy Adams told
us, having done a quick change into some
blue Herv Lger bodycon. Thats one very
cool group of friends, Amy.
the party outfits were pretty

duet of Janis Joplins Piece Of My Heart. We
were so stunned by the total coolness of this
that we nearly didnt notice Oprah Winfrey
cutting some shapes on the dance foor right
next to us. Yes, thats right Oprah Winfrey!
there was aN eNtire room
dediCated to puddiNgs. On our
frst (OK, third) return trip for a handful of
strawberry cheesecake popcorn, Eddie
Redmayne popped up next to us to dip
a marshmallow in the white-chocolate
fountain. This, we thought to ourselves,
is what heaven would look like: us, Eddie
Redmayne and a white-chocolate fountain.

foor firting with him later, I will be very
disappointed, she joked.

were obsessed), he and his crew
spent most of the night hanging out
by the cured-meat bufet. This

It did not. At 3.30am,
Douglas Booth, Laura Whitmore

still air-guitaring their way around
the tiny dance foor. Then, at 4am
(just as we were leaving), Michael

> Make like a Balenciaga girl and go for running shorts tosee you through everything including socialising. Just
pick a slightly longer length and a silky fabric.
> Summer suit, anyone? A coordinating top turnshumble shorts into a chic evening option.
> Theres only one bag for you, and thats the rucksack(unless youre brave enough to try a bumbag of course...).
if Youre fashion forward
> Yeah, yeah, we know you know the bomber is the jacketof the season, but try wearing one as a top on its own, as
seen at Jonathan Saunders.
> Sling on an embellished sweatshirt whensipping evening cocktails this summer.
> Not everyone will be brave enough to work sportyaccessories, but you can dare to try pool slides and visors.

OK, thats totally ofce
appropriate then. Denim A-line = you in the Nineties. Denim
pencil = you looking slick
at that big presentation. Faded denim wont do,so wash your skirt inside
out to keep its indigo hue.

We prefer denim no
more grubby cufs. This shirt is nice andsturdy, which means
it can double as a light
jacket over a camisole. You can wear leather towork, too; a skirt would
look great with this shirt.

hitting the shops...
Saturday nightdinner...
why it works
Its a tricky balance: being comfortable on your feet for hours
but still looking chic enough to blend in on Bond Street.
Jeans with hefty turn-ups and fat sandals with a spattering
of jewels have the look nailed.
why it works
Note the lack of waistband on this slinky dress (more room for
food!) and the mid-length hem (more fattering than a mini
when sitting). The muted colour is great with statement court
shoes, then just add a simple cover-up, like a boxy jacket.

brunch with the girls...
early morningcar boot sale...
why it works
Brunch is the best time to work a laid-back look, but you still
want to impress your mates. Swap jeans for striped trousers
and wear your denim on top. Theres bound to be a skate-shoe-
off, too, so make sure yours are the brightest of the bunch.
why it works
Elbows at the ready. Serious car-booters need a practical outft
to get them stylishly to the best bargains. Flat shoes? Tick.
Roomy sweater? Tick. Large bag to fll with trinkets? Big tick.

ew women are more effortlessly dazzling
or more enjoyable to watch on the red
carpet or at dressy charity events than
Sarah Jessica Parker. She is a fashionista
and the girl next door rolled into one, and
its sometimes impossible to tell her apart from the irrepressible,
clever and vulnerable Carrie Bradshaw character of Sex And
The City fame. Every time I interview Sarah Jessica, Im
reminded she is that and so much more. She is an incredibly
thoughtful, substantive and eloquent actor-producer-activist
and mother. A person of accomplishment and commitment.
When I meet up with her in a midtown Manhattan
restaurant one afternoon, Parker is wearing a taupe-and-
black-striped sweater, boyfriend jeans, a ftted Level 99
denim jacket and a knitted cap. Her dish today is yellowtail
jalapeo sashimi (she ends up ordering it twice), but she
graciously declines a waiters offer of champagne because she
has to be in top form for the play she is doing off-Broadway
that night. Parker comes across as the sweetest, most
low-maintenance and fun person youd ever hope to meet.
Total girl-crush material. This despite a hectic life of juggling
theatre, developing flm and TV projects (including a new
HBO half-hour comedy series) and, above all, raising her son,
James Wilkie, 11, and twin daughters, Tabitha and Loretta,
four, with husband Matthew Broderick. (By the way, she and
I share a love of minivans.) And now Ms Parker, the game
entrepreneur, is launching a line of shoes, handbags and one
trench coat called what else? SJP, to be sold exclusively at
Nordstrom. Given her level of success and, frankly, the stardust
that comes with her career choice, Im always struck by her
humility and how anchored she is. Shes unfailingly polite, kind
and even more interested in you than showing how interesting
she is. When we sat down for this interview, in classic, classy
Sarah Jessica fashion, she turned the tables on me.
SARAH JESSICA PARKER Why do you look so good?
I guess because youre happy. You look so great!
KATIE COURIC I am happy!
SJP Your skin is so gorgeous. Whatever youre doing
KC Really? Thanks, Im trying.
SJP Are you making plans for your wedding?
KC Yeah, but last night John [Molner, Courics fanc] and
I were saying maybe we should do something small. I worry
about it becoming a big production.
SJP Dont let it get crazy. Just have an elegant party.
KC Im not 22 I dont want big bouquets on every table.
SJP And how are the girls [Courics daughters, Ellie, 22,
and Carrie, 17]?
KC Theyre good. I think at frst they were a little freaked
out because it was just the three of us for so long, but now
theyre excited.
SJP Well, Johns very sweet.
KC But we have to talk about you, for InStyle.
SJP Yes, Katie Couric. This is hilarious.
f
IVE ALWAYS ADMIRED YOUR fASHION SENSE ON AND
Off Sex And The CITy, THE WAY YOU PUT THINGS
TOGETHER, WHERE I WOULD LOOK LIKE A fLEA-
MARKET REfUGEE. No, you wouldnt.
I WOULD. SO, HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE SARAH
JESSICA PARKERS REAL STYLE? Today I look a little raggedy.
I was taking the subway and picking up the kids from school.
YOU LOOK COMfORTABLE. If YOU HAD YOUR WAY,
WOULD YOU DRESS LIKE THIS EVERY DAY, OR WOULD
YOU PUT ON THE DOG, AS MY MOM USED TO SAY?
Well, I think I do have my way. I pretty much dress for what
Im doing. I relish when theres minimal expectation. But I
still love getting to wear something incredible for one night.
Its great to be a mother in jeans or cords, then have these
alternate-universe moments where I sort of live in a fantasy.
YOU HAVE AN ENVIABLE PHYSIqUE YOU DO! YOURE
SLIGHT AND YET, YOU KNOW, WOMANLY [LAUGHS].
I KNOW, I SOUND LIKE IM HITTING ON YOU, BUT YOU
WEAR CLOTHES SO WELL. Thanks, but what I wear now is
different from what I would have worn even three years ago.
I wear a lot of three-quarter sleeves and dresses that feel
more modest. I dont have an urge to wear tube tops. I chose
not to work out for the past few months because I have
this play Im doing and Im busy with my children. Being
super-ft is not a priority.
DID YOU EVER COMMIT A REAL fASHION fLUB, WHERE
YOU LATER THOUGHT, WHOOPS, I JUST COULDNT PULL
THAT ONE Off? Im sure. But Ill wear something because
I respond to it or Im excited about the designer. So I think
pulling it off or not pulling it off, that almost doesnt exist
for me because, really, Im looking for experiences, not some
report card. So you choose a dress that people think is a
disaster. In the end who really cares?
I THINK YOURE DARING. No, I think Daphne Guinness or
Lady Gaga or Madonna people like that are daring. But I do
love fantasy, colour and the idea of no rules. You know, stripes
and stripes and stripes, or every blue at once. Its good to take
chances. But daring
PEOPLE ExPECT fASHION-fORWARD LOOKS ON YOU.
I hope I dont disappoint them!
AT THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM Of ART COSTUME
INSTITUTE GALA, fOR THE PUNK-THEMED SHOW, YOU
WORE THIS INCREDIBLE BLACK MOHAWK HEADPIECE.
Philip Treacy, the great English milliner, made that for me.
It arrived in a box bigger than this whole booth. And I was
concerned! But you cant say to Philip Treacy, I want a polite
hat. You have to just go with it. And when am I ever going
to have that experience again?
TELL ME ABOUT YOUR NEW SHOE LINE. IM SURE YOU
WERE APPROACHED A MILLION TIMES. WHY DO IT
NOW? Earlier opportunities never seemed right. I kept
saying, This just isnt what I imagined. If Im going to ask
people for their hard-earned dollars, Id better be making
shoes I want to wear. About a year ago, I was about to sign
with this big company, and I was hemming and hawing.

I realised my real dream was a smaller line, my name, built in
Europe, at a reasonable price point. Beautiful, simple shoes,
the kind I remember from when I frst came to New York
the Maud Frizons, the Charles Jourdans. And the person
I would most like to partner with was George Malkemus, who
runs the Manolo Blahnik brand. But I thought, well, hes kind
of otherwise engaged. Still, I called him and said, George, I
have this crazy idea. And he said, Be at my offce tomorrow.

No, but theyre sexy and feminine. By the way, they all have
grosgrain as a trim or accent. When I was little, I wore a
grosgrain ribbon in my hair every day.

neutral only means brown and black. Tweaking rules of, like,
whats appropriate for the offce. I mean, what are you less
capable if your shoe is the colour of a berry?
ThIS SEEMS MorE orGANIC For You ThAN WhEN You

lINE. I think the lesson there was that you and your partner
need to want the same thing. There was a naivety on my
part, and who could say no to running halston heritage?
But I couldnt fx an organism that was ailing. It was tough
because you feel defeated.
ThIS IS SuCh A Good FIT For You. dId You AlWAYS
lovE ShoES? I did, but I didnt have a lot. We all got two
pairs a year. Wed polish them every Sunday. I loved going to
the shoe store. First of all, it was air-conditioned, which was
such a big deal, and stores were nice. We had a town mall
called kenwood [in ohio]. With Buster Browns.
BuSTEr BroWNS! our STorE [IN vIrGINIA] WAS
hAhNS. The shoes were beautifully made. Id run my hand
over the stitching and study the heel. I wouldnt get to choose;
my mom would say, This is the shoe youre getting.
WhEN You WErE oldEr, WErE You AS AddICTEd To
ShoES AS CArrIE? No! She would rather have shoes than
furniture or food. I would always prefer a good meal, or travel.

me thinks there is one last chapter to tell. But timing is a
peculiar thing. It isnt a decision that can wait forever. I dont
want to have to wear muumuus [all-covering loose dresses]!

Twelve years.
WoW, hoW doES IT FEEl To BE BACk? Its great. Its
hard its a challenging role. Im with Blythe danner, whom
I adore. We did a play together 19 years ago called Sylvia.
I played a dog, and she played my masters wife who loathed
me. Now were playing mother and daughter. Its a story
about how parents disappoint us and how we disappoint
ourselves. It also raises the question, when do you start
taking responsibility for your choices?

read dickens together. It was so great. Wed sit in the bathtub

and pass the book back and forth, reading passages out loud.
I love that. So, are you juSt SavourIng the
famIly that you two have created? mostly!
[laughs.] Its complicated when youre working crazy hours.
But the kids are a joy, even when theyre not. I had one child
only for nearly seven years and thought I had the blueprint.
then these girls came, and not only were they girls, but they
were as different from one another as they could possibly
be physically, emotionally, disposition-wise, probably
politically. I feel bad because Ive been gone for so much
of the last month and a half while rehearsing. I think Ive
re-emerged; I got to pick them up from school today.
I want to aSk aBout your actIvISm, too, BecauSe
ItS So much a part of who you are. youre on the
preSIdentS commIttee on the artS and the
humanItIeS, and youre a unIcef amBaSSador.
growing up, we had unIcef greeting cards and calendars.
I always equated them with doing important work in far-fung
places war-torn countries, developing worlds. when the
chance came for me to be involved, it was an honour.
youre alSo on the Board of the new york cIty
Ballet. Ive loved ballet my whole life. I used to dance, and
I respect the discipline. the new york city Ballet is one of
the greatest companies in the world. we need to build that
audience. who is the next generation of ballet-goers?
what IS the moSt Important leSSon youve
learned aS a woman In charge? oh, I want to know
what you think. whats your lesson?
I thInk you have to adhere to your StandardS
and StIll make people feel valued. Its a challenge.
Im sure there are days Im not as gracious as I would hope to
be. But I try. I want the people around me to feel good about
being there and to feel valued and that theyre being heard.
wIth all thatS happened to you, how do you
thInk youve kept your Balance? Ive been working
for so long, since I was a girl. the real success happened after
I was grown, and that saved me. I was appreciative of all of it,
and continue to be my gosh. I dont think my success has
ever defned me; its just this thing that I carry around and
then shepherd in a hopefully graceful way, you know?
very graceful, Id Say. awww!
heres what she made earlier
the SYLVIA
this, to me, is the classic
special- occasion shoe.
it suits many important
events in a womans
life. the heel height
makes it comfortable
enough to wear
all day long.
Around 220
the tAnnY
i love the French blue.
its a slightly diferent
tone from most navies.
Both the colour
and shape of this
ankle-strap shoe
look incredibly sexy
on the foot.
Around 220
the MAUD
im into the idea of
using multiple hues to
create a unique neutral
efect. this heel can go
with lots of colours and
even patterns. im so
pleased with how soft
the weave feels.
Around 235
the WALLACe
i have been wanting
to do a shoe like this
forever, and now i cant
believe we actually
were able to do it,
especially in this
beautiful purple berry
colour combination.
Around 160
BABY WAVeRLY
this is such a perfect
bag for so many types
of situations it would
be appropriate with
work or weekend
clothes. i love that
its kind of like
a little piece of candy.
Around 205
the BeeKMAn
im excited we got to
do this purse because
the ample size allows
for the realities of
what a woman needs
to carry. Yet it is still
small enough to qualify
as an evening bag.
