The clothes, the girls and the moments between shows. RUSSH fashion and beauty director Billie Iveson shares the best of New York for Spring Summer 2017.
“The ocean is at its warmest, farm produce is at its very best, the crowds are gone and even the sunsets are a little bit more beautiful,” says The Surf Lodge’s Jayma Cardoso of Montauk and the Hamptons in autumn. Here the seasoned veteran shares some of her favourite things to see and do when the warmer days give way to that crisp autumn air.
Nestled in the heel of Italy’s boot, the Puglia region is synonymous with turquoise blue seas, sprawling olive groves and baroque architecture. Matteau Swim co-founder and stylist Ilona Hamer takes us there, on a sweet trip full of languid days in the Mediterranean sunshine.
A drive downtown in the City of Angels. When photographer Pierre Toussaint crossed paths with model Jeet Pavlovic on a sunny afternoon in L.A. he knew it was too fortuitous to ignore. They turned off the highway and cruised through the Heights to catch the best of that Los Angeles light. Hot town, summer in the city.
All the good things. In the hours leading up to his sixth season presenting at NYFW, Dion Lee shares with RUSSH his definitive guide to the city he now calls home.
Breakout stars, industry favourites and endless glasses of champagne. As the first models walk at NYFW, we ask those in the know to share their go-to spots for a cocktail.
She travelled to Paris to find a touch of Africa that felt like home. For Australian photographer Caroline Presbury, it was the Right Bank sanctuaries, found through friends and fellow creatives, that left a lasting mark.
We followed Magdalena to Nice and Zippora to Montauk; for these jet-set models among others, enjoying those rays is a must, not a maybe.
When the temperature drops and cravings for an alpine adventure set in, look no further than New South Wales’ snow-capped mountain ranges. A five-hour drive from Sydney feels a world away, and local resort Thredbo features enough activities and dining options to satisfy thrill-seekers and après skiers alike.
Braids, coffee-stained eyes and brushed-up brows; straw boaters shading heavy lids and glossed lips and torn denim, always. Here, New York photographer Kava Gorna shares the moments that caught her eye one hot summer’s day on an island in New York.
When it comes to engaging the senses, Neada Jane of recently-launched social app Clapit knows more than a thing or two. On a picture perfect L.A. day, the Australian native took RUSSH for a ride around the city she now calls home.
A surfing town on Mexico’s Pacific coast, with beaches fringed by jungle and forever laidback vibes, Sayulita is the stuff of our postcard-perfect tropical getaway dreams. Here, RUSSH Fashion Editor Bridie Gilbert shares the best of her trip to the coastal town, from boutique hotels to swim spots, and where to find the perfect one-of-a-kind cover-up.
With his meticulously curated retail destination in the Lower East Side, Greg Armas of Assembly New York has created a forever on point, cool-kid oasis providing a constant source of inspiration. Here, Armas shares with RUSSH the places he goes to fuel his own creativity.
Lauren Layne, the self-professed foodie who isn’t afraid to indulge, takes RUSSH out for a bite at her favourite go-to spots.
We took a trip across New York’s East River to Randall’s Island – an expanse of leafy green that provided the ideal setting for the first-ever Panorama festival.
An ode to vintage denim, and the women who make each pair uniquely their own, 100 Cheeks features 50 “close friends or strangers” captured up close, from behind; on the road, on the town or in their personal habitats, wearing their most cherished pair.
When it comes to her subjects, photographer Jen Steele looks for “gravity” and “heart” above all else. If a person catches her curiosity, she is the kind of girl who will walk right up and request to take their portrait, often establishing a friendship along the way. Here, Steele shares with RUSSH some of her most cherished New York memories captured on film.
Palm trees and 30 degrees. Tucked far away in the Indian Ocean is tropical hideaway Cinnamon Dhonveli, nestled in on one of the Maldives’ best surf breaks, Pasta Point. It’s easy to feel like a marooned castaway on these pure shores; the pace is slow, the vibe is easy.
When model Jennifer Gilmore packed her bags and moved her life to the centre of Berlin, she did so armed with her beloved film camera. Here, she shares with RUSSH a few snapshots of her new home in the middle of a European summer.
Let the music play. This weekend we make the annual pilgrimage to NSW’s North Byron Parklands for Splendour in the Grass, Australia’s biggest mid-year music and arts festival.
