2014 AWARD FOR STYLE Businesslike by day, rocker chic by night— versatile style is always a pleasant surprise

My fondest fashion memory...

is without a doubt, the amazing Zac Posen gown I wore to receive the Award for Style in 2014. I had been hunting for a dress that was grand enough for the occasion but practical enough to move around in as I knew I had to go onstage to deliver my acceptance speech. When I came across the dress, with its intricately embroidered fabric, Cinderella skirt and train at just the perfect ankle length in the front so that I could walk unimpeded, I knew the search for my dream dress was over.

The biggest fashion faux pas people make...

is wearing a label from top to toe

My style...

is an expression of my personality and who I am. More than clothes and fashion, style is also about acting with grace and kindness.

My fashion advice...

expressing yourself!

Can women stop...

is to be fearless in

thinking you can only wear a gown to a black-tie event? You need only look at Cara Delevingne in her Chanel pantsuit at the 2017 Met Gala or Emma Stone in her Lanvin jumpsuit at the 2015 Golden Globe Awards to realise there are no hard and fast rules anymore!
