With Incredibles 2 making headlines this year, BAZAAR sits down with the film’s inimitable stylist-auteur, Edna Mode, to get her read on the season ahead.
“Cower, mediocrity—I am here!” barks Edna Mode, as she swoops onto the set of Harper’s BAZAAR’s Autumn/Winter fashion shoot. Known for her blunt and prickly demeanour, the half- Japanese, half-German designer commands the room with a steely-eyed determination that belies her diminutive stature. “Attitude!” she shouts, while model Sara Sampaio saunters by, looking like she could serve coffee off the corners of her supersize red coat. “Let us begin!” Edna says, snapping her tiny fingers and hopping onto a director’s chair that’s almost twice her size to discuss the season’s best new looks with BAZAAR.
Hello, Edna! You look fabulous. Can you tell us what—and who—you are wearing?
I wear myself, dahling. As no one else can.
Let’s talk about your BAZAAR shoot. What were some of your inspirations?
My shoot was no more bizarre than others. What was bizarre about it? I reject that classification.
Tell us about the Marc Jacobs look you styled—
