Glamour USA – January 2017

Unedited
Undies,
Uncensored
As someone who routinely cuts the bows off
her lingerie—seriously, why are there always
bows?—I was stoked to discover Negative, a
brand for girls who don’t do girly. And starting
this month, you can buy a set of undies with
your own embroidered phrases ($85–$100 for
two, negativeunderwear.com). Think of the
possibilities: Bachelorette party gift? Try “Ride
It/My Pony.” Best friend’s b-day? “Shine On/
You Crazy Diamond.” Breakup? “New Phone/
Who Dis?” They’re like cheeky inside jokes…
with myself. —Alanna Greco, editorial assistant

Taking Notes From
Diana Gordon
“Before the Beyoncé thing, I hadn’t had something good happen
to me in a while,” says singer-songwriter Diana Gordon.
The “Beyoncé thing” she’s referring to: three writing credits on
the icon’s Lemonade, including one for “Sorry,” which launched
a nationwide witch hunt for “Becky with the good hair.” Now
Gordon, who previously performed under the name Wynter
Gordon, is putting the final touches on a “rebirth” album,
due out this spring. And if recent tracks are any indication —
“One hand on the pussy and the other on a Harley,” she spits on
“Woman”—she’ll be totally capturing the zeitgeist. But where
does she even get her material? “It comes up from the youth. It’s
like, what’s their language?” she says. “A lot of the best writers
say things people say already. It’s just not proper English.” TFW
someone finally gets me. —Justine Harman, senior editor
The All-Grown-Up
Anklet
The second I spotted a pair of mismatched
Mary Janes on Instagram, I emailed my most
fashionable friend, Danielle: “What are these
shoes with ankle cuffs?” She wrote back immediately:
“They’re not with the shoes exactly.
These girls run their own brand, Attico. So
they’re, like, ankle bracelets.” The “girls” are
Italian street-style stars Giorgia Tordini and
Gilda Ambrosio, and starting in January,
their silk-and-satin creations will be my very
own ankle chokers ($205–$330 per pair, my
theresa .com). Worst-case scenario: People
think I’m under house arrest. Well, then, how’d
I get into this sexy club, hmm? —J.H.
