Itâs somethingIâm very mindful of not letting happen here at Vogue, and have to say Iâm especiallypleased with this monthâs issue. From guest columnist Benedetta Barzini, 74, tocover star Ariana Grande, 24, itâs all about gathering a spectrum of viewpoints, oflife experiences and intriguing personalities who are thriving at every stage of life.Itâs about looking amazing, too. Turn to our Trends section this month(page 48) to find exciting proof that looking good doesnât have a timer set on it.We gathered some of Vogueâs favourite mothers and daughters â from Yasmin andAmber Le Bon to Zaina and Sal Miuccia â to model the key trends of summer.Jan de Villeneuve brought both her daughters.Jan is a good case in point, actually. The noted 1960s cover girl shows howbeing in your eighth decade is no barrier to a renaissance. A few years ago, I gotto know Jan the 21st-century way: via Instagram. She messaged me and we gottalking, and she told me how much she loved Steven Meisel â and the next minutehe was shooting her for Italian Vogue. She got a whole new career from beingdigitally engaged. How inspiring is that? Speaking of inspirational, this monthI also had the pleasure of overseeing the Vogue 25, our first ever list of the mostinfluential women in Britain over the course of the past 12 months. From royalsuperstar The Duchess of Sussex to Cambridge researcher Priyanka Joshi, theseare the faces reshaping Britain today (page 188).Lastly, Iâm so grateful to Ariana Grande for sharing the experience of herdifficult and transformative past year (page 154). As she returns with the finestalbum of her career, Grande is not only a remarkable performer and social-mediatitan, but in the wake of the Manchester bombing, an icon of positivity andinclusiveness for her millions of young followers. How gratifying it is to see hernow making fans of every age.
