Fresh off her Document Journal interview with Grace Coddington, where Julianne Moore was styled by Grace Coddington to look like Grace Coddington while the duo talked about Grace Coddington wanting that damn movie made about her life before she either gets Alzheimer’s or passes [BAD Anne!] — well Julianne Moore is just as charming flying solo as her real-deal self in the September 2021pages of C Magazine.

Katie Mossman styles Moore in Bottega Veneta, Chanel, Fendi, Givenchy, Hermes, Ralph Lauren, Versace and more lensed by Jack Waterlot [IG] who conveys Moore’s Smart Sensuality persona in the lush images.

Julianne Moore has a film out right now — one that means a great deal to her. Her role of mother in ‘Dear Evan Hanson’ means so much to her that Moore was willing to audition for the big-screen adaptation of the Broadway musical. plays Evan’s mom, a loving and devoted single mother who works hard to provide for her son. Evan struggles with his mental-health issues, accelerated with the suicide of a good friend. The role represents Julianne Moore singing for the first time.

“I’m not a singer, so it was a big leap,” Moore tells Heyman. “Honestly, it’s been a long time since I auditioned. I really can’t remember the last time I read for [a project], but I was happy to,” she says. “As an experience it was so challenging — so out of the box for me — that it was exciting.”

Moore is also honest that she wasn’t the first choice for the role.

Top model Giedre Dukauskaite covers the September 2021 issue of Vogue Turkey. Fashion editor Ceylan Atınç styled Dukauskaite in Balmain on the cover, shot by Yulia Gorbachenko [IG] at 04:48 at Nemrut Dağı [Mount Nemrut] Adıyaman, Turkey as part of the global Vogues ‘New Beginnings’ September theme.

The 2,134-metre-high mountain in southeastern Turkey is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, from the 1st century BC. It is one of the highest peaks in the east of the Taurus Mountains where a number of large statues are erected around what is assumed to be a royal tomb.

As someone with wonderful memories of being in Istanbul and in the countryside as well, AOC knows Turkey finds itself — like America— it its own fight to preserve an increasingly secular lifestyle with human rights against the forces of authoritarianism and religious fundamentalism.

The ‘New Beginnings’ editor’s commentary by Vogue Turkey EIC Debora Zakuto is one we could have written — and have written since 2007. It’s uplifting in these dark times to see a younger woman picking up the torch, as we weep with fear for the women of Afghanistan.

You may recall Higuchi from Burberry’s Spring/Summer 2021 show, where she shed her long, shiny hair for a buzz cut. The pressure on her to conform to Japan’s beauty ideals forced her temporarily out of modeling and into her folk-pop hybrid band called Ofuro de Peanut. And then Higuchi hit London where she fit right in.

Amanda Gorman Covers WSJ Magazine Fall 2021 Women's Fashion Issue by Cass Bird

Amanda Gorman Covers WSJ Magazine Fall 2021 Women's Fashion Issue by Cass Bird AOC Fashion

American poet and activist, 2020 Harvard College graduate, and the youngest inaugural poet in US history, Amanda Gorman covers the WSJ Magazine Fall 2021 Women’s Fashion issue.

Photographer Cass Bird [IG] is behind the lens./ Makeup by Ophelie Crommar

Clover Hope conducts the Zoom interview Why Poet Amanda Gorman Wants to Be President.

The poem Amanda Gorman wrote for President Joe Biden’s inauguration, ‘The Hill We Climb’ defined her as an overnight cultural phenomenon. Describing the reading as “an out-of-body experience”, Gorman explains that when former president Bill Clinton told her it was the best inaugural poem since Maya Angelou delivered ‘On the Pulse of Morning’ at his own 1993 inauguration, she knew she now lived on a new page in American history.

AOC has written about Amanda Gorman multiple times now. We learn from WSJ Magazine that Amanda’s presidential aspirations declared themselves at age 11. The idea actually was a suggestion from her sixth-grade math teacher who cracked a joke. Gorman recalls responding to him in earnest, saying, “You’re right. That’s exactly what I’m going to do.”

Presently, Gorman’s target year is 2036. When she confirms on the record again to WSJ Magazine that, yes, she seriously wants to run for president, Amanda Gorman makes her presidential run seem entirely feasible. “I think to make the impossible more proximate,” she says, “you have to treat it as if it’s in reaching distance.”

So focused is Amanda Gorman on her future, that she will not be required to clean up her social media. Her posts always align with her future goal of being president.

We who follow Amanda Gorman know she loves fashion — and Miuccia Prada loves Gorman. Her gracious hostess skills will be on display as a co-chair of the September Met Gala, the annual party honoring the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute. The night gives Gorman an opportunity to explore growing intersection of art and politics.

“All art is political. I would say especially fashion,” Gorman explains. “I think about what it meant for the Black Panthers to wear tilted berets, what it meant for African-Americans to show up in their Sunday best while marching during the civil rights movement. And what it’s meant to wear rainbow colors in terms of queerness. What it’s meant to wear white as a feminist. I love getting to find more superpowers in what I wear.”

AOC has left out much in this rich interview. Read on at WSJ Magazine Why Poet Amanda Gorman Wants to Be President.
