Film and Broadway icon Cynthia Erivo graces the cover of the November issue of Harper’s Bazaar. Erivo’s recent Harper’s Bazaar cover is a part of her media blitz for Erivo’s press tour of “Wicked: For Good.”
“Elphaba will be part of my life forever, but we need separation,” Erivo says, as detailed in dailyfrontrow.com. “We’re not one and the same anymore, but we can be friends. What I love is having had the chance to play her when she has to figure out what she is and play her again when she knows.”
Dressed in magic and fantasy-like couture from Giorgio Armani Privé, Balenciaga Haute Couture, Schiaparelli Haute Couture, and Maison Margiela Artisanal, Erivo is photographed for this cover and spread by Cass Bird. And true to form, Erivo is styled in her signature, super-duper Jimmy Choo and Louboutin high heels.

DVF keeps them coming back for more
Diane von Furstenberg is figuring out a way to keep her fashion brand relevant. She is introducing a new initiative that celebrates the brand’s heritage.
“I always wanted to design timeless dresses, but I didn’t know how timeless they would become,” said Diane von Furstenberg, as reported in fashionnetwork.com. “The essence of timelessness is in dresses that last forever, and to have a great vintage piece is a jewel that lasts forever in your closet.”
DVF Vintage offers a hand-selected collection of vintage styles pulled from Diane’s personal archives and from the DVF community, through a buy-back program that invites customers to consign their pre-loved DVF items for store credit. Upon visiting the DVF flagship store in the meatpacking district, shoppers can explore a rotating curation of archival looks, tracing the evolution of the brand’s era-defining prints and silhouettes.
Until November 30, consumers and shoppers can explore DVF Vintage at the DVF flagship store in New York City’s meatpacking district. DVF Vintage is currently available online and in DVF stores.

Iveson and Guess
NBA legend and icon Allen Iverson has a new job. Iverson has teamed up with Guess Jeans in a limited-edition capsule collection. The capsule collection introduces five iconic Iverson tee-shirts based on his 1993 photoshoot with Sports Illustrated.
“Everybody wanted to wear Guess,” explained Iverson, in a fashionnetwork.com article. “In high school, it was the flyest thing out—but back then, I couldn’t afford it. My dad gave me a pair once for doing something good—maybe for my grades or something like that. I’ve always had love for Guess because it was the style back then, and it just had a different swag when I had it on … It was never about trying to dress a certain way—my goal was just to be able to afford what I wanted to wear. When I made it to the league, I could finally buy all the Guess I wanted. That was my style.”
“Iverson represents a generation that changed how we see sport, fashion, and identity,” said Nicolai Marciano, chief new business development officer. “His energy, resilience, and authenticity embody what Guess Jeans stands for today; a fearless approach to personal style rooted in cultural impact.”
The tee shirts retail for $44 a piece and show an 18-year Iverson at the beginning of his professional career.
