Lana Del Rey.

Lana Del Rey week continues with the newly unveiled cover of British Vogue, featuring the lippy musician in a Louis Vuitton blouse with the headline "The fascinating Lana Del Rey." Boy, they're not kidding! All who--like Brian Williams--find Ms. Del Rey's success an enigma may find that she has a future in fashion commentary. In an accompanying interview, Ms. Del Rey expounds: "Fashion is inspired by youth and nostalgia and draws inspiration from the best of the past. I think both the song and the collections touch on the light and the dark side of life."

We've already seen Taylor Swift, Rihanna, and Lady Gaga covers of American Vogue--could the Internet's favorite chanteuse make a splash with Anna Wintour as well? (We're happy for any press opportunity she gets that isn't Rock Center.)

“I think people tend not to enjoy their hair as much as they could,” he said.

Mr. Warn was born in a small town in western Australia, where his sister worked as a hairstylist. “I love the idea that you can transform people, and I guess the dress-up factor attracted me,” he said. As a teenager he traveled to Perth for an intense five-year technical apprenticeship that taught him the history of hair for the past 100 years. (Pompadours! Marcel waves!) Then it was off to London, where he worked for the famed one-name-only Leonard.

Stints at the cosmetics company Molton Brown, plus British Vogue and other glossies, took our hero to New York, then back to London where he booked his first film job, working for the legendary Stanley Kubrick on Eyes Wide Shut. “He was fantastic. A wonderful man,” he said. “It was a high point in my career. … and I’ve done a lot of wonderful things.”

And speaking of high points! Mr. Warn says it’s time to stop flattening your hair into dank oblivion, ladies. “Get over that straight, ironed hair,” he said. “Everyone got into that safe mode. It’s refreshing to look alive again. Have fun with it, change it—and you don’t have to spend a fortune.”

Since 1991, Kerry has been a Creative Consultant for The John Frieda Collection and is the resident authority on “red,” including the Radiant Red product line.
