Giovanna Battaglia-The Maker, The Model, The Muse

Sunday, January 6, 2013

Giovanna Battaglia is an internationally known style muse, not solely due to the fact that this Italian born beauty is fashion savvy, but also because she's also an extremely talented editor.  Having transitioned from a career in modeling to writing for a notable publication at the ripe old age of 28, Giovanna landed an opportunity to head the fashion editorial team at L'Uomo Vogue, an Italian publication dedicated to menswear and male interest cultural activities.  Since then, she's become a familiar face on the street style scene, being shot by numerous noteworthy photographers during fashion week.  Giovanna has also parlayed her experience at L'Uomo Vogue into a recurring contributing editor role for W magazine.  What I admire about her aesthetic is that she's a subtle risk taker, and by that, I mean, that's she not afraid of color or bright accessories but she's always put together in a classically feminine way.  Her sense of dress is easy to interoperate; although, her beauty and intellect are hard to imitate.

Poppy Delevingne- UK's Loveliest Flower

Sunday, December 23, 2012

Poppy Delevingne is a British model, socialite, actress and most notably, a muse for fashion designer, Matthew Williamson.   Beauty and style run in her blood, as her mother, Pandora, is the head personal shopper at Selfridges, in the UK, and her sister Cara, is an internationally renown model.   Most recently, she was featured as the face of Louis Vuitton's pre-autumn/winter 2012-2013 collection.  Her aesthetic is a mix of classic and rock n' roll, but with those long gams and flowing blonde hair, she has the ability to pull off any look.

Natalie Joos-Play on Patterns Perfection!

Saturday, December 1, 2012


Natalie Joos's ingenious play on patterns and mix of vintage and couture makes her, in my book, one of the most enviable stylists in the industry.  Coming to NY, by way of Belgium, she has perspicacity into the business,  having been a model, journalist and now, casting director.  She also recently revived her blog, Tales of Endearment, imparting her loyal followers with personal stories about friends, love, life, style and vintage finds. She exudes self-possession and doesn't accommodate trends or ageist ideals that are palpable in the industry. She's never been one to blend in and neither have I...that's why I can relate to her quirky interpretation of fashion!
