PORTER Magazine - PORTER Winter Escape 2016

In this issue

This issue sees the second outing of our Incredible Women list celebrating the most inspirational women of the moment, women who have remained true to themselves while inspiring millions more around the world. We introduce our top 10 influential voices of 2016 featuring, among others, Beyoncé, Serena Williams, Simone Biles, Michelle Obama and Sheryl Sandberg, all of whose words won’t fail to move you.

In a PORTER first, we held the presses for the result of the US presidential election for our interview with American news anchor Megyn Kelly. The first person to publicly take Donald Trump to task over his attitude to women, she has emerged as one of the most powerful voices in the media.
Elsewhere, our cover star, American actress Michelle Williams, talks openly about bringing up her daughter Matilda alone after the death of her father Heath Ledger, the highs and lows of dating and finding contentment in the everyday. We meet the new boss of London’s Serpentine, Yana Peel – one-time banker and all-time cultural innovator – who hints at edgier and more glamorous plans for the galleries. And The River Café’s formidable Ruth Rogers reveals her rules on how to live, and eat, with heart.

Plus, embrace a new femininity and ease as you step into 2017, with elegance firmly rooted in cool luxury and relaxed strength. Comfort dressing is elevated from a downtime favorite into an all-occasion staple, while exaggerated shapes dominate daywear. And be inspired by this season’s elemental muse – the romantic, remote desert landscape – and the singular style of artist Georgia O’Keeffe, with unrestrained silhouettes, natural textures and masculine flourishes.
Finally, make sure you plan some me-time amid the whirlwind of daily life with PORTER’s spa guide, a unique global curation of retreats that will help sculpt your body, strengthen your mind and revolutionize your health. And discover the world’s hottest winter destinations, from Uruguay, to Miami, via Rio de Janeiro and Goa.
