Presenting winter’s newest, buzziest stars – all dressed by the newest, buzziest designers. Remember their names!

Ana Lily Amirpour 36, director of the film A girl walks home alone at night

“Big breaks are an illusion. It’s more like millions of tiny, useful fractures that you should continue to appreciate.” (Her next film, “a psychedeli­c Western with cannibals,” stars Keanu Reeves, Suki Waterhouse and Jim Carrey. “Really, it’s a love story,” Ana says.)

Lisa-kaindé and Naomi Díaz Both 21 (twins!), of the French-cuban musical duo Ibeyi

“Words I live by? ‘What goes around comes around,’” says Lisa-kaindé. “We just wrote a new song about it.” Adds Naomi, “The whole idea is that you harvest what you sow – our parents and grandparen­ts taught us that growing up.”

Gabriel-kane Day-lewis 21, model and musician

“My parents [actors Isabelle Adjani and Daniel Day-lewis] said, ‘Know what you have to offer, and know that, no matter how good you are, people are going to say hurtful things. Keep your head up and plough through.’”

Riley Montana 25, musician, model and a face of Givenchy

“My favourite motto? ‘Thoughts become things.’ When I’m positive and I set my mind to things, they happen. When I bring negative energy, that’s just what I get back in return.”

Miguel Gomez 30, actor who appears in the film Southpaw

“Being from Houston, [Hollywood] seemed like a whole ’nother planet! But my mom would always tell me, especially after my really emotional moments, ‘You should be an actor.’ I guess one day it just stuck.”

Stephanie Sigman 29, actress who stars in the TV series Narcos

“When I got the call to audition for the James Bond film Spectre, I was in hospital with food poisoning. I begged, ‘Please let me do a self tape.’ I felt really bad, but I pretended to feel really good. And I got it!”

Glen Powell 27, actor who stars in the TV series Scream Queens

“One of the phrases I try to live by is, ‘Dance with the one who brung ya.’ I love making new friends, but I cherish the old friends who were around long before I was playing golf with Justin Timberlake, so all my friends are in that category.”

Leven Rambin 26, actress who stars in True Detective

“I’m from Houston, Texas, which is definitely an ‘if you work hard, you’ll make it’ kind of place. I believe that nobody should be allowed to take the right [to work] away from you.”
