“I’m wearing a Valentino jacket, Dries Van Noten shirt, old Bottega Veneta pants, and Calvin Klein tank top. 1970s porn star was my style inspiration today. My style philosophy: Have fun.”

“I’m wearing a Lemaire top and trench, Shaina Mote pants, Mansur Gavriel shoes, and my necklace was designed by my close friend Malu Byrne of En jewelry. I focus on supporting designers that reflect my own passion for sustainability and creativity. My philosophy is to support designers that care about our planet and I am weaning completely off of plastic. This is my version of a power suit. I’m here representing one of my oldest and dearest friends, Batsheva Hay, who is also a Pisces like me. She’s a beauty, a romantic, and a powerful poet who possesses brains (she’s a licensed attorney) and a fabulous sense of humor. She believes in magic, always questions authority, and believes rules are made to be litigated.”

“I’m wearing a Kate Spade dress, Le Specs sunglasses, Jennifer Fisher earrings, Madewell sandals, and Chanel bag. A few years ago I realized I felt my most comfortable self in dresses and skirts, so I’ve really been leaning into that. I thought about wearing heels today but it’s the last day and I just couldn’t bear it, so I went with sandals. I’m hoping it’s a whole ‘vacation in Italy’ vibe because it seemed like literally everyone was in Italy this summer but me! I’m inspired by feminine power dressing; I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being a little girly, even as I get older. I love women like Sarah Hoover and Stephanie LaCava who sort of subvert expectations through their style. I think it’s important to stay true to who you are with your style and not chase trends. And, as my mother taught me, if you find something you love, buy it in every color. I’m pretty much always thinking of Blair Waldorf when I get dressed.”

“I’m wearing a vintage dress from my great-aunt, a Zara sweater, & Other Stories T-shirt, New Balance sneakers, thrifted bag. I knew it was going to be a crazy day at work and I wanted to wear something cute and comfortable. I wasn’t wearing the sweater originally but felt like the outfit looked too much like maternity-wear without it. My style is inspired by the people I interact with at work, random people on the street, old movies, and magazines. I usually pick one item I feel like wearing that day and go from there. My style philosophy: You can make anything work with a bit of creativity and the right styling.”

“I’m wearing a thrifted top and skirt, bathing-suit top, Nike shoes, velveteen socks, and bag and hat bought on the street. I like thrifting and picking from the street random pieces. Lately I have been combining sporty clothes and basics. I go for things that feel easy to wear and work in.”

“My jacket is Comme des Garçons, my top is Helmut Lang, my skirt is Georgia Alice, bag is Prada, slides Jil Sander, sunglasses Miu Miu. Everything else is in my packed suitcase as I’m flying today. My style philosophy: Comfort above all — I prefer being underdressed.”

“I’m wearing all vintage except my boots which are from Camper. I get inspired by colors and patterns — and my own closet! My style philosophy: red, yellow, orange, pink, green.”

“I’m wearing a shirt by Peter Do, trousers by Givenchy, shoes Nike x Sacai, bag and necklace vintage, and Celine sunglasses. I love an outfit with ‘chic ease,’ minimal fashion that is timeless with a modern twist, mixing in vintage as well for personal flavor, and finding special vintage denim and accessories that feel lived-in and traveled.”
