Her World Singapore – September 2019

Theymightnotbe

householdnames,

but these multi-

hyphenate women

are impacting

how we consume

fashion behind the

scenes. Here’s why

you should add

them to your follow

list. By Allysha Nila

WHO SHE IS: The Vogue

Australia fashion director

is a stylist to the stars

(notable clients include

Victoria Beckham,

Cate Blanchett and

Gisele Bundchen). She’s

also the co-founder of

Wardrobe.NYC with her

ex-boyfriend, Australian

designer Josh Goot – the

pair work together to this

day. The brand releases

elevated basics, mostly in

black and white.

Celebs and infl uencers

may come out tops

in the race for more

followers, but who are

the ones really exerting

an infl uence on the

course of fashion?

These power players are

planning campaigns,

shaping collections,

dressing other powerful

women, and guiding

designers with their

visionary insight and

personal style. Here are

three dynamic women

who are defi ning what’s

cool in today’s

fashion climate.

HER STYLE: Her polished,

moody uniform consists of

statement-making coats,

her trademark tousled hair

and stylist sunglasses. It

also shows in Wardrobe.

NYC. Think well-tailored

blazers, relaxed-fi t trousers,

luxurious yet plain T-shirts,

and structured coats. The

brand has only produced

three collections since 2017,

rebelling against fashion’s

usual practice of multiple

collections each year.

WHY KNOW HER: She

was famously tapped by

Virgil Abloh to consult for

his Louis Vuitton men’s

collections. And she’s been

collaborating with Kanye

West for his brand, Yeezy,

since its inception (Abloh

was Yeezy’s previous

creative director). Centenera

is also roving around the

Kardashians’ circle, and

is touted to be responsible

for Kim Kardashian’s edgy,

high-fashion makeover.
