Bree McCann

Model, influencer, founder of swimwear label Code B, Peregian Beach

- Fashion editor ANNABEL FALCO

Considered, classic and comfortabl­e, Bree McCann’s wardrobe is as cool as you would expect it to be. The Queensland model and Code B swimwear founder favours minimal designs and contempora­ry styles with neutral tones, vintage denim, tailoring and luxury accessorie­s at the fashion forefront. Missing the Eurostar for Burberry is a bold (but celebrated!) move, and it is clear McCann is more than someone who wears clothes well. I’m ready to travel the world and source fashion with you, Bree!

How would you describe your style? I am quite a uniform dresser. I like neutral tones, casual looks and classic pieces. I’m not overly girly but I gravitate towards things that are a little sexy and show shape.

Who are your style icons? Kendall Jenner, Kaia Gerber, Bella Hadid.

What’s the oldest item in your wardrobe? I have A LOT of vintage denim! I associate different denim with different times in my life and different places I have lived. I like to keep them for memories.

What are your favourite brands? Camilla and Marc, Dion Lee, Blanca, Helmut Lang, Posse, Nagnata, Matteau and Venroy.

Have you ever made a style faux pas? Haha, yes, all the time! I don’t mind a bit of chaos in my wardrobe.

What’s the most you have spent on an outfit? I think probably an Isabel Marant leather skirt and Chanel Boy bag from my New York days would max the list.

What is the most surprising thing in (or about) your wardrobe? I actually don’t have that much considerin­g I’ve worked in fashion for more than a decade. I like to keep it fairly tight and I’m quite selective about what stays. I have just done a huge wardrobe clean out with Lisa from the ThePrelove­dCloset so most of it is available.

Top three wardrobe must haves? A good leather jacket, a black suit you love and swimwear that makes you feel amazing – Code B of course.
