Anna Wintour’s daughter Bee has shared new photos of her baby boy in celebration of him turning one month old.
Bee Carrozzini, née Shaffer, and her husband Francesco Carrozzini welcomed a son named Oliver Sozzani on October 25 and shared the first photo of the newborn — Wintour’s third grandchild — a week later.
Now Bee, 34, has updated Instagram followers with a series of precious photos, including one of the smiling baby in a pair of sunglasses and another of him cuddled up in a cute fuzzy sweater with ears.

‘One month with Oliver,’ wrote Bee, captioning the photos, which led on a family snap of her hiking outside with Oliver and Francesco with autumn leaves on the ground in the background.

In one sweet snap, the proud parents captured Oliver mid-yawn.
Comments have poured in from Bee’s friends, including Derek Blasberg, Huma Abedin, designer Joseph Altuzarra, Valentino designer Pierpaolo Piccioli, Architectural Digest editor-in-chief Amy Atley, W editor-in-chief Sara Moonves, and Bumble chief brand officer Selby Drummond.
Bee gave birth late last month, and the couple paid tribute to Francesco’s mother, Franca Sozzani, with the middle name Sozanni.
Sozzani, who was the the editor-in-chief of Vogue Italia starting in 1988, served in the role until she assed away from lung cancer in December 2016 at the age of 66.

She and Wintour shared a longtime close friendship, and Bee and Francesco are thought to have met through their mothers as children.
Bee’s first post announcing Oliver’s birth earlier this month was quickly flooded with congratulatory comments from a host of her celebrity friends, including Sex and the City star Sarah Jessica Parker, who wrote: ‘Wow!!!! Got the chills!!!!!!! I’m so happy for you all. Xxx’
Katy Perry also chimed in to celebrate Oliver’s birth, remarking that she shares a birthday with Bee and Francesco’s newborn son.
‘Omg I love my birthday twin. Congrats,’ the singer wrote.
Bee, who has been working in a behind-the-scenes role on Broadway for several years, was also sent several sweet messages from musical stars, including Dear Evan Hansen’s Ben Platt and singer Josh Groban.
Unsurprisingly, a number of high-profile figures from within the fashion world were also quick to offer their congratulations in the comments section, including designers Zac Posen, Joseph Altuzarra, and Jennifer Meyer — the jewelry designer ex-wife of actor Tobey Maguire.

Bee’s new arrival came almost four months after it was first revealed that she was expecting her first child with Francesco, whom she married in two wedding ceremonies in July 2018. The first took place at her mother’s sprawling Long Island home, and the second was in her husband’s hometown of Portofino, Italy.
The news was first shared by a source close to Francesco and Bee, and was later confirmed when Bee was pictured sporting a baby bump during a romantic trip to Portofino with her husband just days later.
But despite being seen on a number of occasions with her growing stomach, Bee did not officially confirm her pregnancy until several weeks later, when she posted a silhouetted photo of her bump on Instagram, along with a blue heart in the caption — teasing that she was expecting a baby boy.
Socialites, celebrities, and designers shared well wishes for Bee, with comments coming in from Sarah Jessica Parker, Dianna Agron, Lily Aldridge, Ben Platt, Ally Hilfiger, designers Zac Posen and Joseph Altuzarra, Billie Lourd, Livia Firth, and Rachel Zoe.
She then put her baby bump on full display at this year’s Met Gala in September, where she made solo appearance on the red carpet, looking radiant in a bright turquoise gown that emphasized her baby bump.
Although she was not joined at the event by her husband, Bee did have some close company in the form of her brother Charles Shaffer and his wife Elizabeth Cordry, who have two children together: daughters Ella and Caroline.
Anna, 71, was also in attendance at the event, which she hosts every year, and which was postponed this year as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

It was through Anna and Franca that Bee and Francesco are first understood to have met as children, when they formed a friendship that eventually turned into a romance in 2016, when rumors about their relationship first surfaced.
Speculation about the duo’s relationship began in October 2016, when they attended a screening of filmmaker Francesco’s documentary about his mother together.

Bee and Francesco then announced their engagement in March 2017, two months before the then-bride-to-be showed off her ring for the first time on the red carpet at that year’s Met Gala.
They tied the knot officially on July 7 at Anna’s Long Island home, before flying to Italy from New York the following day in order to wed once again in an intimate ceremony in Portofino on July 9.
For both ceremonies, Bee donned a white dress, although she chose a different design for each wedding location. They included a classic silhouette to say her first ‘I do,’ then a more summer-friendly Dolce & Gabbana alternative for her second time tying the knot.
Details of both weddings were kept very much under wraps, and Bee declined to publicize her nuptials in the pages of her mother’s magazine, as so many other high-society brides have chosen to do in the past.
It is understood that the couple implemented a strict no-social media rule at their weddings, echoing the same regulations that Anna insists upon at the Met Gala — although those restrictions have become increasingly lax over the years.
Francesco and Bee have always tried to keep their personal lives very much under and the radar. In the three years since their wedding, Bee has shared just a few social media snaps of her husband, including a goofy photo of him hamming it up for the camera that she posted on his 38th birthday last September.
