In addition to it being a chance to explore our own country, travelling here is also making a greater gesture: We’re reducing our carbon footprint, encouraging the local economy and supporting our artisans, our producers and the tourism industry. It’s a meaningful step toward becoming a more responsible and mindful traveller. I also love the reassuring sense of familiarity I have when I travel within Canada. No matter where I am or how different my surroundings look, I feel strangely at home.

Je l’ai déjà mentionné dans ces pages: j’adore les paradoxes. Les contradictions qui, une fois bien examinées, révèlent en fait toute la complexité que nous portons en nous. Et s’il y a un domaine où les paradoxes abondent, c’est bien celui de la beauté. Prenons la chirurgie esthétique, par exemple. Au cours des dernières années, elle s’est affichée sans retenue. Lèvres gonflées, pommettes surélevées, front lisse comme du marbre.

Achieving wealthness (the coming together of wealth and well-being) is essential. Managing your money is no longer just about saving. To be bold, to protect yourself and to thrive, you need to build a stable financial foundation.

Luxury now lies in “natural” beauty—meaning cosmetic procedures (and even beauty products and treatments) that produce results that aren’t obvious. We want to enhance our appearance without anyone being able to put their finger on what’s changed—we want that “Wow, you look so great and rested!” reaction. The phenomenon of undetectable work is in full swing, allowing us to improve ourselves in the most subtle ways possible. Because deep down, isn’t that the dream?

Do you believe in zombies? It turns out that as we age, that’s exactly what some cells in our skin can become. They enter a state of senescence, wherein they stop performing their job but don’t get eliminated as they should. Instead, they remain in the body, not quite alive but not dead either, hence their “zombie” nickname. Such can be the case with our mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), which are responsible for activating skin repair.

COS has long been synonymous with understated elegance, thoughtful minimalism and impeccably tailored cuts. But this season, there was an added layer. An emotion. A quiet strength. A timeless breath that lingered in the air. Picture it: models descending a steel staircase embedded in raw stone, moving effortlessly between the towering walls of the Dionysos-Penteli quarry. Sculptural silhouettes, draped in near-liquid fabrics that seem molded directly onto the body. It’s striking. It’s elemental.

At ELLE Canada, we have always been committed to showcasing local talent. Whether they’re dedicated to the realms of fashion, like Maguire and Beaufille; beauty, such as The Ordinary and Vivier; food and drink products, like Miels d’Anicet and A Sunday in August; or design stores, such as Jacques & Anna and EQ3, our pages are a privileged space in which to celebrate brands that inspire us. And this commitment is now more important than ever.
