When it comes to building a wardrobe that stands the test of time, what’s the first thing you advise people?
My advice is to always invest in curated pieces that make you feel confident and comfortable. For me, fabric and fit are paramount—which is where I start with all of our designs. Every piece within my Icons Collection was designed for longevity, to be worn in any season, and to provide a foundation upon which to express your own personal style.
What’s your own day-to-day style like? Do you make an effort even when you don’t have to go anywhere or see anyone?
I typically reach for my version of jeans and a tee, which is sleek denim and a cashmere or voile knit, and I always drape our menswear-inspired Calla double-breasted jacket over my shoulders. I live in LA, but I’m a New Yorker at heart, so the way I dress blends that vital tension between feeling relaxed and looking polished.
When you want to feel confident—what boxes does your outfit need to tick?
I would choose really elegant fabrics in unfussy silhouettes, finished with one piece that has structure. Something like a fluid dress with a blazer, or a textural lace skirt with a structured knit.
A breakfast event pops up for tomorrow. What’s an outfit you might turn to for an early morning occasion when you want to feel polished?
The key lies in having the perfect fit and again, really immaculate fabrics, and finishing it all with some accessories to add a touch of personality. I am a trouser girl so typically I reach for a classic straight leg trouser and thin knit or a slinky tee, topped with a roomy, double-breasted blazer over the top.
