How do you define good fashion taste? Elegance, simplicity,<br />

not too many colours. From head to toe, there needs to<br />

be harmony in colour and shape. The simplest dress can<br />

become a ‘wow dress’ with the right accessory.<br />

Describe your own style in three words. French, classic,<br />

natural.<br />

Who is your fashion hero/heroine whose style has<br />

influenced your own? Jean-Paul Gaultier. I like the<br />

way he mixes looks for men and women. I like to wear<br />

masculine clothes.<br />

Which country do you like best for shopping? Italy!<br />

The fashion designer I most admire and why… Coco<br />

Chanel. She created the most universal interpretation of<br />

style.<br />

My biggest fashion faux pas was… Wearing trousers that<br />

were too tight – which split at the end of the day! So<br />

embarrassing.<br />

My favourite shoes are by… Free Lance, Sergio Rossi,<br />

Burberry.<br />

The next thing on my wish list is… A small, black, leather<br />

bag for the weekends.<br />

The most expensive fashion item in my wardrobe right<br />

now… A high-heeled pair of shoes from Miu Miu that I<br />

bought for their beauty and that I’m unable to wear!<br />

My watches are by… Chaumet and Hermès<br />

Jewellery brands I like and why… I’m wearing a Tamawa<br />

necklace and a Marco King Chan 3D printed ring called<br />

Star.<br />

If I could only wear one luxury brand for the rest of my<br />

life… Hermès.<br />

How long does it take you to get ready in the morning/<br />

evening? Too fast as I have a kid. So the easiest thing to<br />

wear is the little black dress of course or black pants and<br />

a T-shirt.<br />
