Kirsten Dunst in Town & Country Prompts a Look at Marie Antoinette's White Women World

Kirsten Dunst in Town & Country Prompts a Look at Marie Antoinette's White Women World

AOC Delves into Sofia Coppola’s White World of Women

Hollywood actor Kirsten Dunst covers the September 2025 issue of Town & Country [IG], interviewed by Mickey Rapkin in ‘Cool Girl Colossus’. Dunst is styled by Deborah Afshani in images by Tina Tyrell [IG].

Late Emerging Criticism of Economic and Racial Realities in ‘Marie Antoinette’

While there was no serious race-related pushback against the film initially, over time Coppola’s preoccupation with a “privileged white woman’s problems” has become a source of criticism. Even agreeing that Marie Antoinette can be viewed universally, critics and students both insist that Coppola’s world of women is white and preferably rich.

In her Town & Country interview, Dunst reveals that she just finished reading a script for director Sofia Coppola’s latest film project.

Kirsten Dunst and Sofia Coppola have collaborated on four feature films: The Virgin Suicides [1999], Marie Antoinette [2006], The Bling Ring [2013], and The Beguiled [2017]. Dunst starred in the first three films and had a cameo in the fourth.

Abbey Lee Covers Vogue Australia September 2025 in Images by Dan Jackson

Vogue Australia September 2025 [IG] finds Abbey Lee [Kershaw] at home in her Williamsburg, Brooklyn loft preparing for her eighth cover for the magazine. She shares the loft with her partner Milo.

Writer Alison Veness visits Abbey Lee weeks before the debut of the new Netflix series ‘Black Rabbit’ starring Jude Law and Jason Bateman on September 18.

The difference between modelling and acting, Abbey Lee says, is like night and day. “I mean, modelling is financially fulfilling, and you get to travel around the world, but at the end of the day a model has one very simple task. As an actor, it’s about your voice, your mind, your emotions, your physicality and your intelligence.”

Sydney Sweeney, Caught in the Moment by Elizaveta Porodina for WSJ Magazine

Sydney Sweeney is the ‘woman of the hour’ today and not because of her gorgeous photoshoot by Elizaveta Porodina [IG] in the September 2025 issue of WSJ Magazine [IG].

She’s not the ‘woman of the hour’ because of a led-by-the-right to bait-the-left manufactured controversy over her recent American Eagle ads.

We don’t know yet if Charlie Kirk’s killer, now-in-custody Tyler Robinson, 22, took him out over the Sydney Sweeney American Eagle manufactured-by-the-right controversy. His laundry list of hate will be revealed in the coming days.

The reason Sydney Sweeney is loud and proud today is because her November 2025 release ‘Christy’ movie trailer dropped hours ago, and it’s a blockbuster.

Equestrians Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner in Grand Tetons for American Vogue October 2025

Superdupers Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner cover the October 2025 issue of American Vogue [IG].

KenGi heads for Jackson Hole, Wyoming in the fashion story styled by Tabitha Simmons at Diamond Cross Ranch [IG]. Photographer Lachlan Bailey [IG] shoots his first American Vogue cover story at Diamond Cross Ranch.

Chloe Malle, named the new Head of Editorial Content at Vogue US, is on the interview. The dialogue is heavier than spun sugar on a stick at the state fair — almost folksy — but definitely apolitical, no comentary about the world writ large. Just two longtime, down-home friends having a scat style, verbal bubblebath. And Chloe Malle writes it all down in short, crisp sentences.
