Sixth Planet

She arrives at midnight in six-inch heels, floating on a cloud of oud. Aura metallic. Whispers hum around her like a force field: She says she comes from Saturn. Wet skin, lips. Icy eyes, slicked hair, stacked hoops. There is no other option but to believe her.

How to Disappear

Run your fingers along your clothes and let intuition guide you. Dress and go north until the cityscape disappears and green takes over. If you can’t leave, go within yourself and plant a tree. Wait for it to grow. Climb its branches and look out at the horizon until you’re one with it.

Sound of Silence

Costa Blanca

Clothes shrink and disappear under the unforgiving, white-hot summer sun. But for the whimsical and inspired, the bone-dry heat is no match for the fantasy of getting dolled up. Wools, gowns, hats, tinsel, and sequins are, after all, a glamorous barrier against sunburn—and when the Mediterranean breeze rolls into the eastern coast, they rustle, billow, and glisten to the rhythm of castanets in the distance.

Clothing Confidential

Not too long ago, style was truly personal. Outfits offered a safe and temporal space to experiment with identity, says Stefano Tonchi. Clothes faded back into the closet after the day was finished, sans digital footprint.

Homespun

We realize the magic of making something out of nothing when we’re young. Tire swings spiral beneath large oak trees, and scraps of fabric and jewel-toned yarn billow into ready-made couture gowns. As time passes by and materials fade into well-worn memories, this world-building persists, appearing when and where we least expect it.

Head-to-Toe Celine

The fashion house’s everyday approach to luxury spills out into fragrances that can be lathered on, spritzed atop, bathed in—or all of the above.

The Worlds We Wear

Mass produced or hand crafted, decorative or practical, an object always has a subliminal use. Pens to write, clothes to wear, books to read. We see a shape and innately know what to do with it. But what if we didn’t? What if, for a moment, we willed ourselves to forget—and instead of utility, we saw limitless possibility?

In the Realm of Possibilities

Home is Her Magnum Opus

Prized possessions do not arrive often, but when they do, they stay long, inhabiting the warm corners of our lives. These are the materials that distinguish our environments, the poetic flairs that find their way into descriptions of our personhood. She makes her coffee at home, eats an egg from a silver cup, pins her singular style on shoes and bags, and treasures the tangible: well-crafted silverware, china, objects for memories to coalesce.

Body Count

Paloma Elsesser is an everywoman in a monomyth. The supermodel has spent her hot ascent to fame atop a pedestal built, in many ways, to reduce its subject to material matter. Her resilience and humanity pervades. This fascination with the charged nature of physicality reverberates in the work of Ser Serpas, the artist who choreographs found objects into animated, poetic, and dystopian scenes.
