Vanities • VANITAS VANITATUM

Opening Act

Culture

THE LIFE MELODIC • A chorus of new books delves into the minds of musicians, from rappers and rockers to indiepop icons

ROYAL MONCEAU RAFFLES PARIS • A long standing Parisian institution, the Royal Monceau epitomizes the new spirit of palace hotels in Paris.

LOCAL TIME • For Valentino creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli, Rome’s cultural contradictions make for ripe inspiration

BEL CANTO • Break out the cough drops and flick open the lorgnettes—the opera is getting a refresh

CHECK, PLEASE • Fall fashion lives somewhere in the grid of the Scottish highlands, Clueless, and the platonic ideal of a woodcutter

SKIN DEEP • In the booming beauty game, the quest for the dream cream is driving creativity, in and out of the jar

Agenda

ROCK AND ROYAL • “Being gay gave me more respect than I saw given to a lot of straight women in similar situations,” says King Princess about growing up around her father’s Brooklyn recording studio. “It eliminated that sexual nature in working with men,” adds the 20-year-old singer/songwriter/producer. Her acclaimed indie EP on Mark Ronson’s Zelig label led to this month’s release of her debut studio album, Cheap Queen, and a current U.S. headlining tour. Here, she discusses studios, sexuality, and sad songs.

HOT TO HANDLE • From a roped-off Rodeo Drive to an after-party in an iconic home, Louis Vuitton created a luxe fantasyland for L.A.’s creative set

Dating the Monster • In rarefied New York circles, Jeffrey Epstein was the sociopath who proved the rule

UPON A STAR • The Black Panther and Us actor has spun a dynamic career on her own terms—and in rapid fashion. Good thing the sky’s the limit

The Vanity Fair Best-Dressed Líst • In a year in which camp was queen and some 89 congresswomen showed theír míght in suffragette white, we salute the standouts who made us look—time and again—in style so remarkable, so personal, so flat-out fabulous that we are reminded: Clothes are never really just clothes

Rock Legend • Rough and rare gems become exquisite showstoppers in the hands of Dior’s Victoire de Castellane

A RAKE’S PROGRESS • After a hard-partying life as a cricket star and sex symbol, Imran Khan has transformed himself from revered sportsman into international statesman. AATISH TASEER, who has known Khan since his days as a tabloid fixture, explores how an Oxford-educated playboy became the prime minister of Pakistan—and an outspoken critic of Western decadence

DREAD’S REBELLION • IN 1811, SLAVES IN LOUISIANA STAGED THE LARGEST PLANTATION UPRISING IN U.S. HISTORY. ARTIST DREAD SCOTT IS MOUNTING A PROVOCATIVE REENACTMENT TO ASK THE QUESTION: WHAT IF THOSE REVOLUTIONARIES HAD SUCCEEDED?

FUTURE PERFECT • An ADVENTURE on the STREETS of LOWER MANHATTAN with MACKENZIE DAVIS, HOLLYWOOD’S go-to APOCALYPTIC MUSE, in the SEASON’S most cutting-edge COUTURE

Goodbye Mr. Sunshine • Elon Musk promised that his $5 billion gamble on solar energy would revolutionize the world. Instead it could bring down Tesla

David Chang • The Momofuku chef/founder and host of Netflix’s docuseries Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner chews on karma, patience, and dance lessons

Export Market • The unlikely Israel-to-U.S. television pipeline is expanding
