The fashion industry has always had a thing for male athletes. Back in the seventies, the Jets’ Joe Namath starred in shoe and cologne ads, and since then there’s been everything from David Beckham’s H&M underwear billboards to Victor Cruz’s posing for Givenchy (not that I’m complaining about either). The implicit message? That a guy doesn’t have to be a sports fanatic to find style inspiration in a LeBron or a Federer; their power and strength have simply been part of how men want to look and live. There’s a reason GQ magazine has had two male athletes on the cover so far this year alone. It’s taken the world a little longer to get there with women. Fashion and fragrance brands have been historically slow to sign female sports…

DO mix and match. “I love to pair vintage Champion and Adidas hoodies with maxiskirts or jeans. Depending on the season, I’ll finish with heels or boots.” —Laura Ferrara, stylist DO know where you stand on the leggings-as-pants trend. “Personally, if I’m going anywhere besides the gym in leggings, I tie a flannel around my waist or throw on a long-line trench. Basically, cover up your butt!” —Simone Kitchens, associate beauty director, Glamour DO swap your heels for trainers. “I pretty much wear sneakers everywhere, and I particularly love them juxtaposed against romantic or very chic dresses.” —Veronika Heilbrunner, creative director, Hey Woman! DO get creative. “I’ve seen loads of people wear sports bras as crop tops, which I think looks so good, especially with highwaisted trousers.” —Laurel Pantin, editorial…

1 You Have the Right to… Sexual Possibility BY CAMERON ESPOSITO I was abstinent in high school. I had the ultimate teen-movie boyfriend—a strongjawed athlete—but I found it easy to refrain from sex. In college I realized why: I was a lesbian. Not sleeping with men came easily to me. The first woman I kissed became my first girlfriend. We were the only out lesbians at our Catholic school’s commencement ball. In time I’d go on to date all kinds of women, starting with Angelina Jolie lookalikes and ending with a wife who resembles James Dean. That’s one perk of coming out in a time and place when it wasn’t OK to be queer: I didn’t have preconceived notions about what I should like or do. I learned to be…

“I’ve always had a desire to be the best at something— and it just so happened that throwing people was it! Now I’m number one in the world.” —Kayla Harrison, below, 2012 judo gold medalist and 2016 favorite “Every time I compete, I find more joy in it.” —Simone Biles, 19, gymnastics Simone Biles has so much raw power and graceful ability in her 4'9" frame that even though she doesn’t hold an Olympic medal yet, she’s already considered— wait for it—the best gymnast in the history of the sport. To date she has the most world championship medals (racking up 14, 10 of them gold, after three years at the elite level), and she even has a move named after her, “the Biles”—watch for it in her floor routine,…

@emiliaclarke is my ultimate woman crush. —@rhotkinen, via Twitter I love Emilia! She’s beautiful, bright, funny & oh so talented! A great “modern woman” role model! —Bonnie Goldstein Epstein, via glamour.com Khaleesi killin’ it on @glamourmag. SO pumped for Me Before You. —@mansha_, via Twitter A Tale of Two Sisters As a birth mom I applaud the May article “How I Lost (& Found) My Sister.” I placed my daughter in a semi-open adoption in 2000, and I still see her two or three times a year. Though giving her up was the hardest thing I’ve ever done, it was also the smartest decision I’ve made. —Terri Rimmer, Fort Worth, Tex. When I was a kid, I went from only child to middle child, with an older stepsister and a…

GLAM TIP Waterhouse’s look is actually a Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini minidress. But the longsleeves-and-short-skirt concept works just as well with two pieces as with one. “DEAL ME IN!” —HILLARY CLINTON, AFTER DONALD TRUMP SAID SHE’S PLAYING “THE WOMAN CARD”…

HOW TO STYLE IT 1. For starters, wear your bomber anywhere you’d wear a blazer. 2. Which means at work it’s perfect with a button-down, a classic skirt, and pumps... 3. ...or make it datenight ready with skinny jeans, a cami, and strappy heels. 4. Weekend lounging? Take a cue from celebs like Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid, who wear their bombers with black leggings and sneakers. 5. DIY alert! Personalize your bomber with iron-on patches, available at 3x1 ($30 for a three-pack, 3x1.us).…

HOW TO STYLE IT 1. If the length’s at or below the knee, go for a slit; it’s flattering and easy to move in. 2. An oversize watch smartens it up. 3. Add heels and a red lip for an evening look. Athleisure, the French Way Looking to up your activewear game? Designers Sébastien Meyer, far left, 27, and Arnaud Vaillant, 26, the new designers at the historic French label Courrèges, can help.

What was the last thing you googled? OK, last beauty thing (we don’t need to know about your “Jon Snow girlfriend”/“baby kitten video” searches). To find out what’s stumping you this time of year, Glamour asked Google to share the top summer beauty and body questions. Clear skin, self-tanners, and sandal-ready feet top the list—and our pros have the answers. Read on. Your Top Searches About Acne… How to get rid of acne overnight Obviously you can’t, but there’s a triple-threat plan that comes close, from dermatologist Sonia Batra, M.D.: Ice the spot for a few minutes; once you’ve calmed the inflammation, apply a 2 percent salicylic acid gel (try Neutrogena Rapid Clear Acne Defense Face Lotion, $8, at drugstores), add hydrocortisone cream, and leave it the hell alone. If…

Soup has always been something of a supporting player—it’s what you eat when you’re sick, or maybe a starter course at a fancy dinner party—so the fact that people are all excited about the stuff right now is a bit of a surprise. But unlike so many health trends, this one’s actually worth the hype. How to make the most of your next bowl: Go Ice-Cold Juice might sound refreshing, but there’s a great reason to pick a chilled soup to cool off instead. Juices almost always eliminate the fibrous pulp from fruits and vegetables, which means you’re going to be starving 20 minutes after you finish. With soup, “you slow down and eat an actual satisfying, utensil-required food,” says Rachel Beller, R.D., founder of Beller Nutritional Institute in Beverly…

Maxine Williams has the kind of spectacular résumé that could land her a top job in any one of a dozen fields: She’s a Rhodes scholar, lawyer, improv comedian, human-rights advocate, and onetime soap opera star. But it was a call in her thirties from a law firm, asking her to be its diversity chief, that changed everything. (She had just one question: “What’s diversity?”) Now, as the global director of, yes, diversity for Facebook, she’s one of the world’s top experts on creating workplaces where everyone can thrive—something we should all get behind, since racially diverse companies outperform the national average by 35 percent. I met Williams at Facebook’s buzzing New York City office, and I brought a few of your questions. CINDI LEIVE: You often use the Trinidadian…

Standing Her Ground “I’ve been working, playing tennis, since I was three years old,” says Williams. “And to be paid less just because of my sex—it just doesn’t seem fair.” Fleur du Mal bodysuit (customized by Glamour). Efva Attling ear cuff. Chanel hoops. Azzedine Alaïa fringe belt. Gianvito Rossi heels. For her luminous skin, try Moroccanoil Dry Body Oil ($48, moroccanoil.com). At 11:10 the night before I interviewed Serena Williams, I saw a Snapchat update from her. It read: “Live one day in my life with me.” What followed was an image of Williams, surrounded by her glam squad, with the caption: “Getting ready to…

There are a lot of things I can’t tell you about Renée. I can’t say her real name. I can’t reveal where she lives. I can’t discuss her family. What I can tell you is that last summer, at 17, she gave herself an abortion, which in some parts of the country means she could end up in jail. Renée knew the minute her test read positive that she was not ready to be a parent. At that point, she told me, she and the father “were not on speaking terms,” and she didn’t want to derail her plans for medical school. But going to the local clinic felt out of the question for her because she’d seen so many protesters there: “All that screaming, telling you, ‘You’re going to…

Adding in ballet-inspired moves, she says, has helped her body stay lean and flexible too. “I like that they’re polar opposites.” Michael Kors Collection one-piece, $445. QALO rings (worn throughout), $16–$20 each.

Middle Ground In a bandeau top and a highwaisted bottom, your upper abs have a major moment. Olajide likes standing core exercises to challenge your muscles from top…

HOW TO STYLE IT Mix your track pants with a polished blazer for work—and swap out sneakers for heels to take them into evening-wear territory.…

When I was growing up, my mother would never let me buy white sneakers—she thought they looked like “nurse shoes.” But I always found the style compelling for its straightforward, no-frills design. Years later, while interning at Vogue, I spotted Karlie Kloss in the office wearing a tank dress and gleaming white low-top sneakers. Almost overnight my supervisors were sporting the shoe with neutral-toned sweaters and tailored black trousers. As a fashion-hungry college student, I quickly pinpointed the source of the fashion craze: Céline creative director Phoebe Philo, who has rocked white tennis shoes exclusively since at least 2011. Stylemongers took note of the perfectly minimalist look and quickly gravitated toward Adidas’ Stan Smith sneaker, and soon paparazzi photos surfaced of Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid wearing them. Even Victoria…

January 29, 2013, was a randomly warm day. I was 16 and waiting outside King College Prep, on the South Side of Chicago, for my father to pick me up when I heard sirens and people rushed past saying, “Someone got shot!” Then everyone started tweeting, and Hadiya’s name came up. Hadiya Pendleton was my friend. I’d just seen her in the hall an hour before. She’d been walking by my locker and saw me standing there feeling unhappy about my calculus exam. She was like, “What’s up, Z-Kat?” (I called her H-Kat.) “Are you OK? Are you fine?” I gave her a fake smile, but she saw right through it and stayed with me until I told her what was going on. Then she made sure my fake smile…

I often think about the day I left my immigrant community in Queens, New York, for college—not because I was leaving home and starting a new adventure, but because my brother said something to me that would shape the rest of my life. He gave me a hug and told me how proud he was of me; I was “getting out of a place where girls either got pregnant, got married, or did drugs.” I never saw it that way because my family supported me no matter what, but he was right: Many girls there did not have a lot of options. Almost 20 years later I try to make sure that women everywhere have all their options. After going to medical school and law school, I now work as…
