Evan Rachel Wood on Tilda Swinton, HBO’s Westworld, and How to Know When You’ve Found The One
It’s hard to predict what Evan Rachel Wood will do next. The chameleonic actress has been tapped to play a shoplifting 13-year-old, a temperamental opera singer, and a woman living in a future where artificial intelligence blends in seamlessly with the real world for HBO’s forthcoming series Westworld—this all from a girl who calls music her first love. When she’s not filming a critically acclaimed series or groundbreaking movie, she might be found singing “Wrecking Ball” at the top of her lungs to friends in her basement karaoke lounge, writing, spending time with her 2-and-a-half-year-old son, or finding other means of “staying creative on my own terms.” It’s this pioneering spirit that has won her a role as the face of Gucci Guilty Eau, a lilac-, lychee-, and musk-spiked fragrance she describes as giving the wearer “a strong sense of self, confidence, and independence,” descriptors she could very well apply to herself. To find out more about what’s next for the 28-year-old actress, we hopped on a call with Wood to talk about the importance of applying perfume straight to the skin, why she’ll be shaving her head when she’s 50, and how to tell when you’ve found the one.

When it comes to achieving an artfully mussed head full of second-day waves, there’s a world of inspiration on which to draw: French girls, surfer babes, off-duty Angels—or, in the case of Jessica Alba, a cozy knit.
Read MoreThe Best Fashion Instagrams of the Week: Kendall Jenner and Snoop Dogg Take Twinning to the Next Level
While the art of twinning is a subtle craft, Kendall Jenner and Snoop Dogg may have mastered it this week. Instagramming a pic from the set of Kocktails With Khloé, the model and the rapper showed up in matching shades of brown—Jenner donning a pair of tawny high-waisted trousers for sister Khloé’s talk show premiere episode and Snoop Dogg sporting an oversize knit in a deeper shade for the occasion—they threw up corresponding peace signs to make it official.

Read MoreNatalie Westling Is Modeling’s Original Skater Girl and She Has the Vans Campaign to Prove It
Since her arrival on the modeling scene in 2014, it’s been apparent that Natalie Westling was something else. The combination of her angelic features, flame red hair, and tomboy attitude made her a favorite of Marc Jacobs, Hedi Slimane, Miuccia Prada, Tom Ford, Phoebe Philo, Nicolas Ghesquière, and nearly every other big-name designer out there, though despite her successes, she prefers to keep a relatively low profile. Her Instagram, which boasts more than 46,000 followers, hasn’t been updated in 10 weeks—basically a lifetime in Internet years—though she continues to be a model-of-the-moment, walking in exclusive shows and booking top campaigns. So what’s Westling been up to in her downtime? Skating.
Read MoreMary-Kate Olsen Is Wearing a Rock Star Fur and Totally Owning It
Earlier this week Kate Moss stepped out in a black-and-white-striped statement fur that instantly caught our eye, and now it appears that Mary-Kate Olsen has upped the ante. One half of the sister duo behind The Row, the 29-year-old designer is known for her fearless fashion choices and isn’t afraid to take risks with her everyday wardrobe or her red carpet looks. And earlier today, leaving her office in Manhattan, the newlywed showed just how well a shaggy fur can work with an off-duty urban uniform.

Running down the beach with their waist-length braids flapping in the wind and lissome frames moving in tandem in the new Calvin Klein jewelry and watch ads, it’s maddening to think actresses Lisa Bonet and Zoë Kravitz are mother and daughter. With their age-defying looks, they appear more like twin sisters than anything—which is no more evident than when they often hit the red carpet together.
Read MoreThe Best Fashion Instagrams of the Week: Zendaya, Lena Dunham, and Kate Hudson!
This week, our Instagram feed was awash with color, and plenty of our most fashionable follows painted the town red, blue, green, yellow, and any variant shade thereof. Tapping into what she called her “artsy” side, Zendaya snapped a contemplative pic in front of an abstract art canvas that perfectly matched her Bauhaus-inspired Peter Pilotto frock. In fact, it was hard to tell where the painting ended and the stylish shape-shifting look began.
Read MorePre-Fall Is the Model Casting Gift That Keeps On Giving
It may roll on interminably, without an end date in sight, but when it comes to noteworthy new models, Pre-Fall is the gift that keeps on giving. With each new lookbook, brands introduce their followers to fresh faces and provide the models selected with some much-needed exposure.

Read MoreMeet the Schoofs: Introducing the Next Model Siblings Set to Take Over the Fashion Industry
From Lucky Blue and Pyper America Smith to Gigi and Bella Hadid and Suki and Immy Waterhouse, in 2019 it’s beginning to seem like you aren’t anybody in the modeling world if you don’t have an equally chic sibling ready to strike a pose alongside you. So we weren’t exactly surprised when we met Lou and Nils Schoof, a brother-sister duo with serious sartorial appeal and chemistry to match. Lou, 20, is a doll-like character seemingly straight from a Vermeer, except that her hair is sheared off into an asymmetrical bob. Her brother, Nils, 17, is a foosball champion, and just as beautiful, with a slicked-back coif reminiscent of that of a matador, concave cheekbones, and a cherubic pout. And while their discovery story is relatively standard—“I was discovered on a train to Berlin,” says Lou. “Nils was later discovered on my Instagram”—posing together is anything but. The duo seem to have a captivating, bound-by-blood, electric bond, visible even in their dual Instagram account. And that you certainly don’t find every day.
