Harper’s BAZAAR Most Stylish Women 2003

What makes a woman stylish? More than merely the labels she wears, it is the way she carries herself with the air of grace of a true clotheshorse. It’s the way she mixes a plethora of high and low, indulgent and practical, glamorous and comfortable to create a fashion vocabulary unique to herself. BAZAAR celebrates the women who define the nation’s love for fashion.

If you were an accessory, what would you be and why

A beautiful scarf. Scarves bring flexibility to a wardrobe, with the ability to brighten or soften colours and vary the formality of an outfit.

Who is your style icon?

Jackie O. She redefined fashon for an era and made it her own. She had style and confidence in the way she wore clothes and presented herself.

What to you is classic in fashion?

The little black dress. It can be dressed up or down, is light to carry, feels great to wear and is not generic. I have little black dresses in my wardrobe that date back at least 15 years.
