It’s rare that makeup artist Mary Phillips has time for a live interview as she’s often jetting around the globe with clients like Jennifer Lopez, Hailey Bieber, and Kendall Jenner. But fresh from Dubai, she made it a point to hop on the phone with Vogue to discuss the recent TikTok craze over her tried-and-true foundation and contouring strategy.

Fashion, too, is a traveling show, and this season—at Chanel, Schiaparelli, Armani Privé, and Valentino—ringmasters and circus animals appeared in the collections, as did harlequins and the sad clown Pierrot.

Some of the most fabulous couture wedding dresses of all time have come courtesy of Chanel. During his tenure, Karl Lagerfeld hand-picked a supermodel bride to close each couture show in a wedding gown, Devon Aoki, Alek Wek, and Kristen McMenamy among them. Current creative director Virginie Viard has since continued the tradition—actor Margaret Qualley has been a Chanel couture bride under Viard. The Versace runway has also played host to some unforgettable bridal couture moments: Gianni put Naomi Campbell in a gilded gown for spring 1992, and Kate Moss in a crystal-encrusted minidress for fall 1995. Maison Margiela and Jean Paul…

Tom Ford’s collections for Gucci are the stuff of fashion legend. As creative director of the house from 1994 until 2004, he championed all-out sexiness, putting risqué silhouettes and suggestive fabrics centre stage. His catwalks were awash with cut-outs and cleverly-placed metal hardware, along with silky shirts unbuttoned almost to the navel (free the nipple, said Ford!), and suiting in sumptuous velvets that begged to be touched. The ’90s and noughties fashion revival has brought the American designer’s Gucci collections back into the spotlight, with vintage sellers and collectors alike clamoring for Ford’s pieces. Alexis Novak, founder of Tab Vintage, describes…
