WHAT’S AT THE TOP OF YOUR WISH LIST THIS YEAR?

“World peace.”

WHAT’S THE MOST FASHIONABLE GIFT YOU’VE EVER RECEIVED?

“My sapphire pavé ring from my grandmother. It’s simple and classic, and it goes with all my jewellery. I wear it every day. I always think of her when I have it on.”

WHAT’S YOUR SECRET TO STAYING WARM WITHOUT SACRIFICING STYLE IN THE WINTER?

“I’m a fan of the long down coats from Mackage. They come with a lifetime warranty, so they’re very sustainable, and you can wear almost anything under them. I also like Sorel boots. I could survive a trip to the Arctic with those two items and not give up on style.”

DO YOU HAVE A SIGNATURE HOLIDAY LOOK?

“I like warm sweater dresses, like the ones from Australian brand Dissh, and knee-high boots. My current favourites are the Stuart Weitzman 5050 boots, which check multiple boxes: cute, comfy and warm. I’ll also be adding a bit of sparkle with white-sapphire stud earrings from a collaboration we are doing with the non-governmental organization ALIMA (The Alliance for International Medical Action) to raise funds for their maternal-health work in sub-Saharan Africa.”

DO YOU HAVE A FASHION RESOLUTION FOR THE NEW YEAR?

“I’d like to shop my closet more and focus on buying with intention when I add a new piece to my collection. I also want to use more of the scents in my collection— like my Oud, Santal 33 and Jasmine oils from Le Labo—and more oils from a trip I took to Aswan, Egypt. I have luxury bags that I want to get more use out of too.”
