Intermittent fasting has long been a cult wellness trend, embraced by celebrities, biohackers, and even doctors. The method promises phenomenal results, ranging from reduced blood sugar levels and accelerated metabolism to increased lifespan. However, despite its popularity, there is no universal fasting regimen, especially for women whose hormonal systems follow complex cycles and require a tailored approach. While men may adhere strictly to 16/8 fasting patterns, women must maintain balance and adjust fasting intervals to align with natural biorhythms, avoiding rigid regimes. How to fast intelligently, L’Officiel spoke with certified nutritionist-naturopath Julie Dimenstein.

"Empire" features a spring–summer wardrobe with a strong focus on structured silhouettes, evoking the elegance and refinement of late 1970s and early 1980s fashion. Photographed in the lush gardens of the Palacio de la Quinta del Duque de Arco — a former royal residence of King Juan Carlos I — "Empire" combines natural light and classical surroundings to highlight the sophistication of each look.

Spring brings not only blossoms and new dreams, but also perfume stories in which you want to dissolve. The new V Canto Arkani collection by Paolo Terenzi is dedicated to the mysteries of the Tarot's senior arcana and is filled with the energy of amulets - each fragrance seems to appeal directly to intuition. And D'OTTO offers two approaches to inspiration: the first collection is abstract like Pollock's painting, the second one is romantic and daring like Jane Austen's heroines. These are not just fragrances - they are codes that you want to unravel.

The city is alive, humming with energy, but she moves through it like she owns it. In a place where millions pass by unnoticed, she is impossible to overlook. Not just because of what she wears, but because of how she wears it.
