VANITIES • VANITAS VANITATUM

Hear Her ROAR • Pro tip: Don’t underestimate Jurassic World Dominion star DeWANDA WISE

High Octane • Those searching for a song of the summer might turn to Maggie Rogers’s effervescent second album, Surrender. She shares her inspirations with V.F.

Paradise FOUND • Imagine if Adam and Eve had at least gotten to wear jewels. Their Garden of Eden serves as Bulgari’s inspiration for a new haute joaillerie collection, which includes this double-tiered necklace, with its amethyst cabochons and a diamond-set chain. Green tourmalines, natural blue zircons, and aquamarines fill in the foliage. Who needs a fig leaf?

KINK About It • Makeup artist ISAMAYA FFRENCH pours her ingenuity into a namesake line, starting with a boundary-testing drop

SCREEN Shots • If the quintessential summer movie involves full sun, sculpted biceps, and courtship antics, then Fire Island is reason to hit the theaters. Set in the titular East Coast enclave, the queer rom-com (based on Pride and Prejudice) takes its ensemble cast from underwear rave to beach. The off-camera best friend was sunscreen, says Matt Rogers, a lead in the film (center, at right, with Bowen Yang and writer-star Joel Kim Booster). Here, Rogers plays irreverent matchmaker, à la an Austen character, with the best new sunscreens and evocative film classics.

Down to EARTH • For RICHARD CHRISTIANSEN, whose Flamingo Estate produces candles, wine, and other sensuous bounty, Mother Nature is the ultimate muse
