Actor and activist Emma Watson is the guest editor for the March 2018 issue of Vogue Australia, dedicated to 'Designing the Future', with a focus on sustainability. and equality. Emma is lensed by Peter Lindbergh with styling by Hannes Hetta. 

“Emma’s personal commitment to sustainable fashion and the process of putting together this issue has introduced us to new ways of thinking and tools to help us be better informed. The challenges she has posed have set us in new directions, which will be lasting,” said Vogue Australia's editor-in-chief Edwina McCann of Watson's guest editorship and the subsequent fashion shoot.

The issue features stories and interviews with designer Stella McCartney, sustainable fashion advocate Livia Firth, scientist Tim Flannery and Nobel Peace Prize recipient Malala Yousafzai. 

For her part, Watson understands that the word 'change' can be intimidating, and so she proposes that each of us commits to a small change, because when steering a boat, the captain can shift the wheel one degree and it drastically changes the course of the boat.

Actor Laura Harrier Says She Already Sees Time's Up Change On Movie Sets

Actor Laura Harrier is one of 300 women who signed the powerful, Hollywood-led anti-harassment coalition Harrier says in her InStyle March 2018 interview. 

“I feel very fortunate to be acting at a time when women and minorities are getting more of a voice,” says the Chicago native, who is a face of Louis Vuitton's Spring 2018 campaign and a Bulgari ambassador.  “We’re in the middle of a moment where barriers are starting to be broken down. But I just want them to be smashed all the way.”

Unlike many people living in the spotlight, Harrier uses her online presence to start conversations about complex issues. “I think those of us with a platform have a duty to talk about all the fucked-up stuff that’s going on,” she says. “I would feel really uncomfortable watching things go by and just posting pretty selfies.” 

'Time's Up'. “I think that the only way to create systematic change throughout society is to have a clear and decisive plan of action,” Harrier told InStyle in January.

Jackie O Meets The Aliens In Retro Modern American Style At Jeremy Scott's F/W 2018 Moschino Show

Rising model Kaia Gerber was joined by the Hadid sisters, Duckie Thot and Aiden Curtiss in a girl squad that channeled Jacqueline Onassis at Milan Fashion Week's Moschino show. The Jackie O treatment included prim, sherbet-colors skirtsuits with matching pillbox hats. But it's the curvy bobs that stole the show. 

Vogue writes that hairstylist Paul Hanlon and his team took days preparing the Jackie bob wigs, color-matching them to each model's natural hair color, then sculpting them into curvy, sky-high bouffants, before freezing them with copious amounts of L'Oreal's Elnett Satin Hairspray. "They're a bit Jetson-like with the flicks at the ends," said an amused Hanlon backstage. 

The finished effect was a Kaia Gerber who bore a striking resemblance to Onassis. See all the outfits.

Helena Christensen Supports Jamee Gregory's Memorial Sloan Kettering Pediatric Neuropsychology Initiative

Supermodel Helena Christensen is popping up everywhere. For a woman committed to getting behind the lens and not living in front of it, Helena is having a model moment.  On February 9, Christensen joined what Vogue calls the "well-dressed set" at Rockefeller Center's Rainbow Room for the Society of Memorial Sloan Kettering’s annual Winter Lunch.

The annual lunch offers financial support to Memorial Sloan Kettering’s pediatric neuropsychology initiative. The Society's president Jamee Gregory explained that no arm-twisting was required. “We were able to sell out the entire Rainbow Room without ever having to print an invitation!” 

Note that Gregory assumed her position in June 2017 and may well be bringing her superb connections and fundraising talents to the volunteer organization. 

Net-a-Porter hosted the event for the third year, and the words of president Alison Loehnis inspired. 

“Cancer is a club you never want to join and you never want to get into,” she said. “Looking around the room, there’s probably no one here who hasn’t been touched by it in some way and we are deeply humbled to play a small part in the incredible work done by MSK physicians, researchers, and donors such as yourself.”

Loehnis ended on a high note. “I’m very happy to report,” she announced, “that this year’s fundraising efforts have eclipsed last year’s by a mile.” This wonderful reality may also reflect on the talents of Jamee Gregory.

Oprah, George & Amal Clooney Are Joined By The Spielbergs & Katzenbergs In Pledging $500,000 To March For Our Lives

/

Oprah Winfrey stepped into the philanthropy box Tuesday, joining George and Amal Clooney,in also committing a $500,000 donation and general pledge of support for March for Our Lives in partnership with Everytown for Gun Safety. The event is being organized by students from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. Both Clooneys will also participate in the Washington, DC demonstration on March 24, being organized by the surviving students of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.

"Amal and I are so inspired by the courage and eloquence of these young men and women from Stoneman Douglas High School . . . Our family will be there on March 24 to stand side by side with this incredible generation of young people from all over the country, and in the name of our children Ella and Alexander, we're donating $500,000 to help pay for this groundbreaking event. Our children's lives depend on it."

The March for Our Lives is organized by Stoneman Douglas students Cameron Kasky, Emma Gonzalez, David Hogg, Alex Wind, and Jaclyn Corin, in partnership with Everytown for Gun Safety. “I'm just a high school student,” Kasky wrote in a recent op-ed, “and I do not pretend to have all of the answers. However, even in my position, I can see that there is desperate need for change—change that starts by folks showing up to the polls and voting all those individuals who are in the back pockets of gun lobbyists out of office.”

The articulate voices of the students have overwhelmed open-minded adults across America. On Twitter, Winfrey compared the Stoneman Douglas student organizers Cameron Kasky, Emma Gonzalez, David Hogg, Alex Wind, and Jaclyn Corin to the Freedom Riders of the 1960s who “also said we’ve had enough and our voices will be heard.”

Two more Hollywood couples joined the Clooneys and Oprah in matching their donations. Producer Jeffrey Katzenberg and his wife Marilyn were joined by Steven Spielberg and Jeffrey Katzenberg in also supporting the initiative.

“The young students in Florida and now across the country are already demonstrating their leadership with a confidence and maturity that belies their ages," said Spielberg via his representative, Marvin Levy. "Kate (Capshaw) and I applaud their efforts to take a stand for the benefit of this and future generations. They are an inspiration to us all, and we are joining in this movement with a donation of $500,000.”

In a statement sent by representative Rachel Peterson, Katzenberg said, “(My wife) Marilyn and I are proud to stand with the brave young leaders from Parkland, Fla., who have taken their pain and grief and turned it into action. We will join Amal and George Clooney on March 24 to stand alongside these remarkable young people. We are also donating $500,000 to March for Our Lives to support this historic event.”

Janelle Monae Channels Hitchcock In 'Noir Town' By Jordan Peele For W Magazine Vol 2 2018

Janelle Monae Channels Hitchcock In 'Noir Town' By Jordan Peele For W Magazine Voll 2 2018

The scene according to W: A private investigator is standing in a clock tower taking photographs of a parade. She is a woman, played by Janelle Monae, searching for clues to a murder. As the detective stares through the lens, she begins to realize that one of the bystanders on the ground looks exactly like her. Then she sees another identical face. And another. Suddenly, the sea of potential suspects are visions of herself. Are these women good? Are they evil? And why are these twinlike alter egos haunting her? “I wanted to create a Hitchcock moment that doesn’t really exist in a Hitchcock film,” explained Peele.

Peele, who was standing on the fourth floor of the abandoned Palace movie theater in downtown Los Angeles, had constructed a scenario that paid homage to the mystery and intrigue of Hitchcock masterpieces like 'Vertigo' and 'Psycho'. Just as 'Get Out' is Peele’s subverted and original take on unsettling classics like 'Rosemary’s Baby' and 'The Stepford Wives', 'Noir Town' replaces Hitchcock’s uniformly white protagonists with a woman of color.
