...issue features articles by Bret Easton Ellis and A.M. Homes, not exactly new voices but evidence of Betts' dedication to deft writing. And the opening section's Bazaar Report puts a journalistic spin on style by showing how runway fashions are worn in real life. While the new Bazaar differs markedly from the old one in content, it joins a crowded field of sources from television to the Internet to lifestyle magazines that offer women of all tax brackets style tips on makeup and clothing and peeks at celebrity wardrobes...
