WWW.EDITORIALIST.COM 7 /CONTRIBUTORS

Gilles Bensimon For the cover of Editorialist’s Fall/Winter ’15 issue, legendary French fashion photographer Gilles Bensimon turned his lens to breakout model Bella Hadid. No stranger to shooting up-and-comers and alike, Bensimon’s most recent editorial work hails from the American, French and International editions of Vogue, Elle, and Glamour, among other standalone projects. Previously shooting sister Gigi, Bensimon was familiar with the fresh-faced beauty and her family. When asked why he felt she was the perfect face of the moment, the photographer spoke of her relaxed movement and confident sense- of self, explaining, “She was very pleased to be there. She doesn’t try too hard; she’s very comfortable.”

Valery Gherman From early on, Valery Gherman was captivated by the limitless artistry of cosmetics— to him, the makeup artists’ kits resembled treasure chests brimming with paint palettes, crayons and tiny pots of color that recalled his childhood love of art. Fast-forward to present day and Gherman is the name-to-know in the world of beauty. Having worked with famous faces like Alexa Chung, and , Gherman created Emily Ratajkowski’s look for Editorialist’s cover story. “Emily was a dream to work with,” said Gherman. “She’s seriously been blessed with extraordinary genes, so I wanted to make sure the cover look celebrated that. My inspiration was for her to embody effortless luxury, so the makeup was polished without all the fuss.”

David von Cannon Hairstylist David von Cannon created the effortlessly windswept locks for Editorialist’s Fall cover story. Von Cannon uses the word “flying” to best describe the vibe of his work on the project. Known for styling top celebrities and top models of the decade (most notably Gisele Bündchen), this was von Cannon’s first time working with Hadid. Calling the young model “sweet and beautiful,” he added, “Classic beauty is what makes Bella a woman of the moment!”

Pedro Koechlin Pedro Koechlin’s fascination with pictures began early. While other kids his age were frolicking on the playground, 9-year-old Koechlin was snapping photos with a ’70s Nikon film camera he found in his parents’ closet. The New York-based photographer—who shot Editorialist’s ‘Jetset’ story—holds a wildly impressive roster and counts master photographer as his mentor. “It was surreal,” says Koechlin of his years assisting Testino, “I stepped into a different world constantly traveling and surrounded by glamour. They were special times.”

Alexandra Richards Natalie Elyse Taylor Suarez Kick Start Decades of Chinese tradition meet a modern Parisian FEIYUE Sneaker, $65 [E] sensibility in this season’s biggest ‘It’ . enowned for optimum comfort and durability, Feiyue shoes were made for walking—and justly so, these sneakers have covered a lot of ground. Originating in as an athletic shoe during the 1920s, the lightweight canvas plimsoles became a staple for RChinese wushu practitioners, Shaolin monks, and kung fu athletes. Fast-forward nearly eight decades to Paris, where Patrice Bastian saw an opportunity to re-launch the storied brand on a global level. Bastian, an ambitious French entrepreneur living in Shanghai and a self-proclaimed sneaker addict, first stumbled upon Feiyue in 2005 during a quest to find locally made shoes for his sprawling collection. “They were very different from all the other shoes I knew,” said Bastian, “I fell in love with the cool, vintage look.” Bastian and his business partner Nicolas Seguy visited the Feiyue production site and presented the manager with a proposal to acquire the brand. The rest is history—or rather, a pivotal chapter in the label’s expansive story. “It is a heritage brand, which as we travel through time we see a series of transformations, yet the brand keeps its vintage touch and is always in line with actual trends and influences.” A balance of traditional craftsmanship and modern design is what propels the brand’s philosophy—the word Feiyue itself means “flying forward” and this has remained the core of Bastian’s vision. In a sea of Chuck Taylors and Stan Smiths, Feiyue is paving the way as the new everyday “it” sneaker (the label counts , Reese Witherspoon, Emily Ratajkowski and Poppy Delevingne amongst its super stylish clientele). The French-designed Feiyue sneakers are available in a wide array of colors and silhouettes for men, women and children, and feature a generously padded sole and more robust canvas upper than the Chinese originals. With a newly launched website, a worldwide social media campaign, a plethora of exclusive collaborations (the label has teamed up with Céline and Vice Magazine in the past) and a pop-up store in New York’s South Street Seaport (July 31–September 7), Bastian is clear that Feiyue will continue to embark on its cultural journey across the globe. “Feiyue is a shoe for everyone. We are excited to see them on the streets in every city and every country.”

’m a mathematician.” It’s not a phrase you’d expect coming from the mouth of Hedvig Opshaug, the “ incredibly chic brunette blogger who provides enviable sartorial inspiration on her website The Northern Light. And yet, before she was talking fashionI she was crunching numbers as a banker for several years between London, Paris and Stockholm. When the markets crashed in 2008, she took some time off to travel and in 2010 launched the blog we know her by today. “It was very personal,” Opshaug explains of the early days. “When you start something, you don’t have any readers—it’s your mom that follows.” Living in London’s Covent Garden at the time, she began with musings about restaurants and shared links to galleries and the museums she was into. Slowly it evolved into something more fashion-driven and now she has countless women consistently logging on to glean insight from the way she puts together her outfits. “You learn as you go,” she says of the process, careful to note that, “you never over share—it’s never been my diary.” So you won’t see pictures of what she ate for lunch, but what you will see are effortless takes on daily dressing. “To me it’s not rocket science,” says Opshaug, who says she always had a natural interest in the industry. “I am not trying to intellectualize the way I dress but clothes are a way of self expression. It’s confidence and communicating how you feel comfortable.” The continuous thread throughout? Practicality. “For me it’s not about big statement pieces,” says Opshaug, whose childhood spent in Norway taught her to keep things simple. “It’s about what works in daily life. So classics are what I focus on a lot, investment pieces that you can keep for a long time.” Though you may see her in a mix of designer brands—Chloé is a favorite as are tailored pieces from Saint Laurent and knitwear from Céline—what she wears the most are jeans and cashmere knitwear paired with a good handbag. “I have an enormous amount of jeans,” she confesses, and among her denim go-tos are Frame (for skinnies) and MIH (for flares). But she’s quick to admit to being on a

There is one area, however, where she does indulge. “I wear a lot of jewelry,” she says of the mix of personal pieces that she doesn’t take off— save for her rings at night. “I never got a tattoo so for me jewelry is like body pieces. Jewelry is something that over the years I have invested in.” This idea of investment has become somewhat of a sartorial mantra for Opshaug, whose shopping strategy centers around wear-potential rather than runway appeal. “I don’t like when pieces are so linked to seasons,” she says. “Of course I get interested in trends as well but I adapt it into my own style. We all need to refresh from time to time.” This season’s refresh comes in the form of catwalk obsessions such as Loewe, Tod’s and Brazilian designer Alexander Lewis, who used to be a men’s tailor at Savile Row and now is doing women’s ready to wear. “He’s just in the beginning of his line but I’m keeping my eye on him,” says Opshaug. This eye on what’s next and knack for contextualizing trends in a relatable way is what has hooked Opshaug’s many fans and is what she will continue to evolve moving forward. “I’ll keep the blog as long as someone is interested in the voice and I have something to communicate,” she says, adding that maximizing her expertise in digital and branding is part of her plan to continue to stay relevant in the future. “I don’t want to just stand there and take photos in my street.”

Mixed Media Former CNN fashion correspondent Alina Cho makes her debut as book editrix, polishing the memoirs of industry greats like Donna Karan and Tommy Hilfiger—and learning how to dress down along the way.

s a reporter, Alina Cho made a career out of asking questions, but that hasn’t stopped her from giving direction when it’s needed— especially when it comes to shoes. “A few seasons ago, I went to see Paul Andrew’s collection andA I looked around and asked, ‘Where is your nude patent leather shoe?’ It’s just a staple and every woman owns at least one pair.

And that felt great, because I’m not a retail Pictured at center: VHERNIER Earrings, $6,100 [E]. expert, but I am an expert shopper.” Giving merchandising advice isn’t the only skill Cho has added to her resume as of late. After leaving CNN in 2013, she signed on with Ballantine Bantam Dell (a division of Random House Publishing) as an editor-at-large overseeing the publication of some high-profile fashion memoirs—including one from the recently-retired Donna Karan, due out October 13. “The great thing about Donna is that she doesn’t edit herself, and when you talk about your life story, it’s always better when you are unguarded,” says Cho. Getting the inside scoop on the fashion industry’s power players is a talent that Cho honed during her ten-year tenure at CNN. She morphed from a weekend reporter covering straight news to host of the network’s Fashion: Backstage Pass series, in which she interviewed designers like Karl Lagerfeld and Raf Simons and brought Parisian haute couture to the American public. “My whole career had been in news up until that point, and I had covered countless fires and floods and hurricanes, but I had always loved fashion since I was a little girl, and I thought why not marry my love of fashion with my passion for my work?” she says. “The reception was initially that people were intrigued, but they were also skeptical—this was CNN after all.

But I was fortunate that the viewers loved my coverage. That was what was most gratifying for me.” Cho also knows that high ratings equal success, and she says she is bringing that sensibility to her book editing. “The coverage for CNN had to be aspirational and smart but also accessible; it had to play on Main Street,” she says. “And I’m trying to do that at Random House. When I think about what books I might want to acquire, I think about what will play in the mass audience.” She’s also playing to the audience of her new lecture series at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art, where she just completed the debut season of The Atelier with Alina Cho, a series of interviews that included , Alber Elbaz and (it will resume later this fall). The media outlet change has also altered Cho’s personal style. “I am definitely more casual overall,” she says. “I’m buying clothes now that I never used to buy. I was just at What Comes Around Goes Around in East Hampton, and I bought a pair of hand-painted, cut-off jean shorts by the Rialto Jean Project and a vintage black peasant top. And I thought ‘Who am I?! What am I doing?’ But it feels right. I’ve spent my whole professional life dressing up.” One thing Cho will not be dressing down, though, is her jewelry: The journalist prefers luxe pieces from niche designers Sidney Garber and Faraone Mennella. “I think more and more women are investing in jewelry these days,” she says. “Brooke Garber Niedich (of Sidney Garber) will come to my apartment during fashion week with jewelry for me to borrow, and inevitably at the end there is always one piece that I can’t part with.” Photographed by Kelly Stuart Written by Shannon Adducci

As the fashion world’s voices continue to grow louder, her quiet sense of style is what sets Glamour’s Jane Keltner de Valle apart.

magine if getting dressed in the morning was as easy as brushing your teeth or brewing a cup of coffee, and walking into your closet lead you to a lineup of pieces that paired together so seamlessly, the outfits they might inspire were infinite. For most women, it’s a dreamlike Iscenario. For Jane Keltner de Valle, it’s an everyday reality. As you might expect from someone known for her sophisticated signature style, one she describes as “ladylike and polished without being too done,” Glamour’s fashion news director grew up on New York’s Upper East Side within walking distance from cultural landmarks such as the Met, Guggenheim and Gagosian. In fact, you can arguably draw a direct line between her current uniform of silhouettes that nip at the waist and childhood visits to the ballet and years spent enrolled in an all-girls school. Though, before committing to her current ultra- feminine aesthetic, de Valle admits to having a fling with some pieces that were a little less so. “I was really inspired by 90s hip hop,” she confesses of her high school fashion choices. “I did the baggy jean thing for a while and the Air Jordans.” If you can’t picture de Valle in baggy jeans—let alone jeans at all—it’s because those days are far behind her. Some time after college, she traded her sartorial experimentations for a silhouette she felt worked for her body—and one that focused on pieces without pant legs. “It makes getting dressed so much easier,” she admits. In fact, stroll through her closet (designed by her architect husband) and you’ll find a space populated by skirts and dresses cut to define the waist. The pieces she pairs them with are equally consistent. Silk Equipment blouses are a staple as is a particular black Miu Miu crewneck sweater that she continues to replace so a week of outfits will never have to come and go without it. When it comes to the names she’s enlisting to line her closet, she smartly

Born and raised in Miami, the young designer looks to Fher vibrant city as a source of endless inspiration—though the initial launching point for Isaias’ brand starts on a different shoreline, over 5,000 miles from the Miami coast. Before leaving for a family vacation to the Mediterranean in 2008, Isaias designed a small capsule collection to wear throughout the trip.

Her chic, Gslightly nostalgic designs are the footwear of choice for any number of cool girls within the fashion sphere—the likes of Alexa Chung and Sienna Miller among them. As the collection’s footprint on the editorial and retail worlds almost immediately cemented with the label’s 2009 launch, it’s been quite a while since anyone thought of Simmons as a young designer—even though, six years in, she still is one. Most interesting, however, is the fact that her success is merely icing on the cake of a career that’s found Simmons perfectly blending roles as stylist, mother and businesswoman, solidifying her place as a multi-hyphenate, multi-talent. Simmons approach to style is as enviable as it is smart, flip- flopping between the ultra-feminine (personified through Dolce & Gabbana dresses) and casually tailored (think jeans and a bouclé jacket). A former model, she’s been a regular Vogue contributing editor for over a decade, simultaneously styling runway shows for fashion heavyweights including Calvin Klein, Alexander McQueen, and Dolce & Gabbana. It’s a sphere where words like “new” and “next” punctuate every conversation and no sooner are you swooning over a stacked heel than you’re over it and on to a stiletto. “In a stylist’s world it goes very, very quickly,” explains British-born Simmons, whose ability to sense a shift in the mood taps her into fashion’s next big thing.

So it’s a surprise to hear that the designer actually prefers a brown over bag that takes over. It Ianything else. “It’s the most practical, pragmatic and genius design,” he says, sitting in his studio amid a new crop of Pashli and 31 Hour handbags for his Fall '15 line. “I never has to be completely believed in a bag that takes over. It has to be completely coherent with you. It’s so obvious if you’re uncomfortable coherent with you.” and not in your own skin, and that applies to bags.” Comfort and ease are principles that Lim applies to both accessories and ready-to-wear, while simultaneously keeping it all cool. Lim’s clothing has become such an integral part of the contemporary American ready-to-wear vernacular that it’s hard to believe that the brand is only ten years old, celebrating its first decade this year. “It’s been an open dialogue, and I’m so happy about that,” says Lim of the brand’s journey from the small sportswear collection he created with his friend and business partner, Wen Zhou, after moving from California to New York on a whim in 2005 to a multi-million dollar, award-winning global brand. “You have to let things grow and you have to let it find itself. It’s definitely evolved. It’s accentuated and also pared down at the same time. It’s become more of the essential 3.1 Phillip Lim.” What that means exactly might not be necessary to define, as Lim’s clients always seem to understand what it is that he is doing, whether it’s the perfectly tailored tuxedo pant, a dress with just the right amount of prettiness or

Consequently, Lim says that his confidence has only grown. “There is still so much more to learn and understand, but after ten years I feel like we are finally out of that Bobby Brady phase—that awkward adolescence,” he says with a laugh. “The voice is settling in a little bit.” He attributes the line’s balance of structure and effortlessness to growing up in California while currently living in New York and designing for the life around him. “I don’t know “I don’t know how to how to make clothes for a life I’m not living… The only thing I want to do is realize my own joy, and that’s to make better clothes.” make clothes for a life To celebrate the decade, Lim is introducing a collection of bags called Tin for Ten; the brand’s iconic bags done in a silver metallic leather. “People were asking me what would I’m not living… The only be that special thing, and I just Googled the symbol for a ten-year anniversary.
