When It girl became part of the ELLE
vocabulary I was at first a little concerned
about focusing on the girl everyone wants
to be. I thought it may perhaps encourage
role models based on fickle values insteadof the style and substance that are part
and parcel of ELLEs DNA. But then
I got to meet some of our It girls (who
were nominated by you) over an editors
breakfast earlier this year and it made me
appreciate that we have the real deal in
our country, celebrities whose It-factor is
firmly grounded in savvy style and smart minds.
Exploring the idea, I realised the attraction our July cover
star, Tarina Patel has, lies in the fact that she reminds me
of the 1927 film aptly titledIt that starred Clara Bow as a
fusion of femme fatale and a touch of material girl. ElinorGlyn, who wrote the original novel and the subsequent
screenplay, defined the It girl for us by not only describing
the liberated new woman of the jazz age but also alluding
to the power of female sensuality. Its no wonder that Bow
became the original It girl.
Our July issue is packed with star style and style stars as
well as a good dose of reading to challenge your views of
fandom, frenemies and the potential pitfalls of living on the
edge. Perhaps we are all dreaming of a better life but ask
yourself, do you really want to be the girl everyone wants to
be, or would you rather be the star you are?
Love,

Designers have given us a
treasure trove of spoils to adorn
ourselves with this winter.
Theres nothing like a little,
actually a lot, of sparkle to lift
your spirits. From pearls, crystals
and beading to embroidery,
appliqu and giant jewels its
time to relook at embellishment.
Its grown up, and so have we.

Cavalli
tThese clothes are decorative
and ostentatious this is
excess at its best. We saw
jackets dripping with pearls
at Balmain, Mary Katrantzou
used printed embellishments,
and Dolce & Gabbana chose
to embellish pieces from clutch
bags to capes. Marc Jacobs
started off at his own label with sequins galore, but
took fancy-wear to the next level at Louis Vuitton
with giant appliqu and oversized beads. Miuccia
Prada also embellished her retro-inspired collection,
and she followed suit at Miu Miu with giant mirror
discs. Matthew Williamson gave us neon-coloured
gemstones; Marni ruched floral appliqu; Versace
incorporated heavy metalware; and Roberto Cavalli
and Blumarine gave us shimmery textures and
sequins. Some designers chose to really push the boat
out with accessories in the form of giant statement
necklaces at Lanvin and Dsquared2, bejewelled
gloves at Blugirl and glitter-covered heels at Just
Cavalli. Its a new era for adornments; in the words
of Rihanna, Shine bright like a diamond!
