The primary customer inside Sephora’s Century City location in Los Angeles, on the open-air Westfield mall, is Joe. The center-aged man walks in only as doors open, 10 a.m. on the dot. “I’m on the lookout for Blu Atlas,” he says. Sephora doesn’t carry the brand, he’s told by Alex, a beauty adviser who leads him to Sulwhasoo after asking about his concerns and learning Joe is on the lookout for an anti-aging moisturizer. “It’ll really help with lines,” Alex tells him, pointing to the Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Cream. “It is available in two sizes.” It’s $260 for a 2.02 fl. oz. jar and $52 for the mini 0.33 fl. oz. “I’m doing work round the corner,” Joe says. “What time are you guys open...

Del Core ventures through wilderness for SS23, starring Alex

Following on from its otherworldly AW22 collection, which explored themes of fantasy through a celestial mini-film, Italian label Del Core’s SS23 collection takes its cues from the basic force of water. Called Fathom, the brand’s SS23 offering is an exploration of “water and its depths: how color, shapes, perception change as one dives deeper”, and incorporates a dreamy choice of garments that juxtapose sharp tailoring with flowing silhouettes.
