Preview ‘Issue 0′ of Carine Roitfeld’s New Mag


It looks like we’re going to get to see Carine Roitfeld‘s new editorial venture much sooner than we thought. Although the official first issue won’t hit newsstands until September, she’s sticking “Issue 0″–which looks like this mockup that was shown to advertisers published by WWD–into the July issue of V as a supplement (CR and V share a publisher).
That will be on newsstands next Thursday, but The Cut got an exclusive behind the scenes video of a shoot with Roitfeld, photographer Sebastian Faena (not a Condé exclusive) and several models slinking around like cats, wearing matching wigs and, in honor of the issue’s “Obsession” theme, staring at themselves in mirrored floors.

It may not quite be the real thing, but it’s good enough for us. You might say we’re “obsessed.”

Daria Strokous for Dior Golden Jungle Collection

The theme is Leopard print, nothing out of extraordinary or new here. I’m actually a bit surprised Dior chose this theme because Leopard prints seems a little bit outdated to me. I mustn’t be the judge of this collection so I invite you to speak your mind about it once you will see the new products.

Saint Laurent Paris


Hedi Slimane’s makeover of Yves Saint Laurent is gathering steam — and will extend to its moniker.

WWD has learned that the designer plans to change the name of the fashion house from Yves Saint Laurent to Saint Laurent Paris.

...

It is understood the YSL logo — a French cultural icon and a feature on an array of products, from shoes to lipsticks — will not disappear.

[WWD]

Side Note: The moniker lettering design is not a specific font, but a custom lettering done by Ukrainian-French painter, commercial poster artist, and typeface designer Adolphe Mouron Cassandre, in 1963—five years before he committed suicide:

YSLWith the onset of World War II, Cassandre served in the French army until the fall of France. His business long gone, he survived by creating stage sets and costumes for the theatre, something he had dabbled in during the 1930s. After the war, he continued this line of work while also returning to easel painting. In 1963, he designed the well-known Yves Saint-Laurent logo.

In his later years, Cassandre suffered from bouts of depression prior to his suicide in Paris in 1968.

Knowing this, I would presume that it's more than likely the new design/logo would go beyond just removing the Yves from Cassandre's design. I think we'll be looking at a whole new branding.

THE PRETTIEST PASTELS FOR TANNED TOES



While I still love a bright, tutti-frutti pedicure during summer, pastel polishes can actually make you look more tan! A vivid coral or neon pink will certainly make a statement, but a flamingo pink or baby blue creates the illusion of tanner skin on paler complexions. Same goes for your bikini. Opt for a lemon yellow rather than a chartreuse, and those limbs will look like they’ve spent a few summers in St. Tropez. Try out some of our favorite summer pastels below for your next pedicure.

NARS Lacquer in Trouville

Quite possibly the prettiest pink we’ve applied in a long time, the opaque formula is a soft salmon hue, great for all complexions.

YSL La Lacque in Beige Leger

This beige/cement hybrid may seem boring in the bottle, but the neutral tone gives your skin a moment to shine. Plus, how can you resist that gorgeous packaging?

Essie Nail Polish in Bikini So Teeny

Mimic the sky with this baby blue shade! Blue and orange are color-wheel complements, so a blue hue amps up any tan/red tones in the skin. We imagine wearing it with caramel-colored sandals and a fuschia pink bikini!

RGB Nail Polish in Vellum

Imagine yourself in a field of buttercups. That’s how you’ll feel every time you look down at your tootsies with this hue. Formulated with a slight olive undertone, this muted varnish suits golden/olive skin tones best.
