Highlights of Harper’s Bazaar India August-September 2025 issue:

The ‘Icons’ issue of Harper’s Bazaar August-September 2025 reflects on what it truly means to be an icon. With actor Kajol’s candid and confident demeanour translating the notion well on our cover, this issue revels in the milestones and the lessons learnt through the journey of some of the most celebrated icons in our lives. At the atelier of Anavila, we witness what it takes to create with purpose. We discover how South Asian creatives are making history across the globe and celebrate people and stories that endure. Read about the complex legacy of Arundhati Roy and explore what matters the most to Shahnaz Husain. Additionally, in the pages ahead, we offer you the latest trends in fashion, beauty, and accessories.
