We’re talking about faith. Last December, just before Christmas, actor Denzel Washington was baptized and licensed as a minister, and so it hasn’t taken long, chatting about his return to Broadway playing the title role in Othello, for conversation to turn to matters of belief. Not religious, per se; Shakespeare’s great tragedy turns on themes of love and jealousy and betrayal.

COVER LOOK“It’s always been both: basketball and fashion,” says WNBA star—and emerging fashion icon—Angel Reese in a Versace dress. Photographed by Norman Jean Roy. Styled by Julia Sarr-Jamois. Vogue, Winter 2025. I’ve been sports-pilled. I’m not sure when it started, but I can tell you when I knew: The Olympics were winding down, I was watching rhythmic gymnastics, and it struck me with a pang that in a matter of days there would be no more of this, this pageant of human effort and excellence.

The pastoral setting had put me in mind of Jonathan Anderson’s fall 2024 Loewe show—its country-manor-through-the-looking-glass vibe.

The chamber of an MRI machine is a surreal environment. You’re flat on a slab and fed into a tube. Inside, it’s dark and noisy, intermittent clangs reverberating around your head. I’ve always attributed this chaotic banging to atoms ricocheting, doing quantum stuff, rendering the invisible visible. Bones, organs, blood vessels exposed. Dodgy cell clusters held up to the light for a radiologist’s inspection. MRI is short for “magnetic resonance imaging,” so presumably magnets are involved.
