BEST DRESSED

Who: Samantha Taylor-reynolds. Where: Opening night of the Gold Coast Film Festival at HOTA. What she wore: It was a case of Hollywood glamour and matching the red carpet for Samantha, who wore a dress by Asilio with Sheike handbag and shoes from Zara. Style and design icons: “Iris Apfel, the New York socialite and fashion icon, is such an inspiration to me. She is 100 years young and always made a statement when she went out. Another is Meghan Markle, who has that sleek, chic look I love. For designers, Gold Coaster Erika Tanna creates these wonderful clothes. She manages to combine Boho, rock chick and some glamour. Also, Decuba, who combine casual and classic designs. My style is very eclectic. Some days I will dress like a teenager and other days be something completely different. If it is a formal occasion, then fitted dresses, usually with bold colours plus long sleeves and skirt.”
