Belle’ A simplified approach to textures, colours and motifs found in the landscape and tribal cultures. Drop in the unexpected and kooky and I’m done! Elsa Schiaparelli’s mind, Yves Saint-Laurent’s 70s and 80s, Irving Penn’s discipline, Antonio López’s sass, Henri Matisse’s forms, Fabien Baron’s refinement. It’s between several places, but always I have a sense of being sun-kissed, freckle-faced and knowing all the back streets. Paper Bird, White Rabbit Gallery, Rozelle markets, Pazar – a local treasure, Chinatown, where no-frills dreams come true! Hopefully, a glimpse of southern Africa. An Eduardo Chillida rug. I’m also eyeing up a great Gabriela Hearst pants-suit. ; the Kevyn Aucoin Netflix documentary; and more . Stories of influential creatives featured in . And Valentino’s S19 RTW show – bold yet romantic – I’m obsessed.
