I Got a Red Carpet Facial From Celebrities’ Go-To Esthetician Before the Oscars — Here’s How to Replicate the Results at Home

If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, WWD may receive an affiliate commission. While I treat my skin well — cleansing nightly, maintaining a diet that mitigates breakouts, and trying to remain as sun-safe as possible — you’ll rarely find me stepping foot in a skin clinic for regular facials. The reasons for this were once myriad (no time; journalist’s salary; etc.), but the tide recently turned when I booked an appointment with none other than Joanna Vargas, a bicoastal esthetician who owns three booming spas across Hollywood and NYC and has touched the faces of everyone from Maggie and Jake Gyllenhaal to Dakota Johnson, Sofia Coppola, and Naomi Watts. Vargas is part of the old guard when it comes to celebrity facialists, but she nonetheless chases innovation with a vehemence. The timing of my visit to witness her tried-and-true techniques couldn’t have been better, considering the Oscars were right around the corner: one of the bus...

In Rome for Valentino’s Fall 2026 Show With Britt Lower

“Severance” star Britt Lower made the trip to Rome last week for the Valentino fall 2026 show, held at the historic Palazzo Barberini.  “Like the city we’re in, a Valentino design is steeped in history, so you feel that when you slip into their clothing,” Lower says. “Within the palette of Valentino, I feel like I’m stepping out of a Fellini film. It’s been raining all morning here in Rome, and the saturation of colors in the architecture is delicious.”  For the show, the actress and her stylist, Rose Forde, chose a trenchcoat as the star of the look, along with a pair of tall embellished boots.  “We were both immediately drawn to this trench, it felt timeless; the color, the collar stood out,” Lower says. “Paired with these boots, the whole thing feels fresh and joyous.”   Working with Forde “reminds me of working with a designer on a film set,” Lower says. “Rose and I initially bonded over our love for David Bowie and whenever we are in doubt, we ask, ‘Well, w...

This New Aera x Todd Snyder Watch Fuses Utility With Luxury — Only a Few Pieces Are Still Left in Stock

If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, WWD may receive an affiliate commission. Todd Snyder has long been favored by a certain kind of suave, big city–trained male who prioritizes sharp dressing but is also a fan of the rugged, modern mode de vie. Think: high-end hoodies and relaxed linen shirts on one hand and Italian wool suits on the other (made more appropriate for that post-meeting, early summer bar hang with a cotton-cashmere tee worn underneath). Aera, though, is a watchmaker in the business of merging Swiss engineering with British design: ultimately taking tool watches, which were once critical for the successful completion of pursuits from space exploration to motor racing, and reinterpreting them for 21st-century, everyday needs. Together, Aera and Todd Snyder have recently released a D-1 Diver Watch, and it has already sold out in one of its two hues, with just a couple of pieces remaining for the second. Todd Snyder x Ae...

Emily Rudd Sails Into ‘One Piece’ Season Two

It’s nearing midnight in Tokyo on the release day of “One Piece.” But despite being in the story’s birthplace, star Emily Rudd is feeling an unexpected sense of distance. “ I sort of feel like I’m just hanging out here in the city as my own person, separate from the show,” she says. “And then there are little moments where I’m like, ‘oh, that’s right — there’s this huge thing that’s happening today.’”  The show and manga’s vast fanbase, meanwhile, had already marked a different midnight — on the West Coast — when all eight episodes dropped on Netflix. While the “One Piece” cast has been living and talking about the new season nonstop ahead of the premiere, fans are now finally able to join the conversation. “It’s so cool to see fan thoughts and reviews rolling in,” says Rudd. “Some people are an insane way through the season — it’s only been out for a few hours, and I’m seeing people talking about being halfway through the season or more, and I’m like, ‘how did you guys find t...
