Dua Lipa Opens Her Heart For Harper’s Bazaar‘s ICONS Portfolio
Harper’s Bazaar‘s got an iconic—and heartfelt—new cover star! Dua Lipa is front and center for the magazine’s latest Icons issue, celebrating the top visionaries across fashion and culture today. Lipa opens up on her romantic new outlook on life—including with fiancé Callum Turner—for the magazine, photographed by Anthony Seklaoui in an array of leather and lace. Elsewhere, the issue’s annual ICONS portfolio also includes Benny Blanco, Megan Stalter, Chase Hall, Ravyn Lenae, Chloe Kim, Sadie Sink, and Eva Victor, each photographed by Philip-Daniel Ducasse and styled by Gabriella Karefa-Johnson. The spread also extends to Bazaar’s 21 international editions, which include new covers of Kate Moss, Adèle Exarchopoulos, and Karina as well. You can discover the full ICONS portfolio now on HarpersBazaar.com, and keep an eye out when it hits newsstands on August 26.
“I love love. It is a beautiful thing,” says Lipa on romance. “It’s a really inspiring thing. You find yourself so intensely falling all the time in the best way possible. That vulnerability is so scary, but I feel so lucky to get to feel it. I’ve spent a lot of time being guarded or protecting my heart, and so I’m letting go of that feeling and just being like, ‘Okay, if I’m supposed to get hurt, then this is what’s going to happen.’ I have to just allow love. I’m happier than ever, so it feels like I’m doing a disservice by not talking about it. …When you’re a public person, anything that’s very personal is very vulnerable. It’s not like I don’t want to share it.”

Timothée Chalamet Dives Into Chanel’s Newest Bleu Fragrance
Chanel‘s going back to blue this fall—with a dash of star power from Timothée Chalamet! The actor’s draped in sharp pinstriped in a new campaign for the brand’s latest men’s fragrance, Chanel Bleu de Chanel L’Exclusif. The moody shoot aligns smoothly with L’Exclusif’s equally sleek scent, crafted by the label’s perfumer Olivier Polge. Amber and wood is the base of the scent, elevated in its glossy navy square bottle by notes of sandalwood and cistus labdanum. The dynamic launch marks Chalamet’s second Chanel campaign since his first debuted in 2024, shortly after he was named the face of the house’s beloved men’s fragrance line.

Austin Butler Breaks A Sweat for Men’s Health‘s Newest Issue
Swoon! If you needed a dash of heartthrob to accompany your afternoon iced coffee, look no further than Austin Butler—who’s the steamy new cover star of Men’s Health‘s September/October issue. While drenched in sweat, Butler works out with his tousled locks and biceps on full display in worn Polo Ralph Lauren sweatpants and a range of vintage T-shirts, jumpsuits, and more. Aside from the eye-catching editorial styled by Ted Stafford, Butler opens up further on his latest role in Darren Aronofsky’s Caught Stealing, his intense fitness routines for the part, and sleep schedules—plus finding mentors in the world of Hollywood, including Laura Dern.
“It was like the whole room just quieted, and we connected on a soul level,” Butler says of Dern. “We felt like kindred spirits. My mom was even told that she looked like Laura Dern, and so as soon as I see her, it’s like: She looks like my actual mom. She’s helping me more and more to see that you can come out the other side, and maybe bits of you have healed, and synthesized, and metabolized. It can be therapeutic, in a way.”
