HEY, GOOD LOOKIN’

Georgina’s musings on inspiratio­nal female icons in fashion and design.

KELLY WEARSTLER, INTERIOR DESIGNER AND FOUNDER OF KELLY WEARSTLER INTERIOR DESIGN “She has such a gift for marrying art and design in a way that the boundaries between both are blurred, resulting in eclectic interiors that are very characteri­stic of her quirky and unique style.”

DARA HUANG, ARCHITECT AND FOUNDER OF ARCHITECTU­RE AND DESIGN FIRM DESIGN HAUS LIBERTY “I enjoy the contempora­ry and cosmopolit­an approach that she takes in many of her commercial projects. I find it very impressive that beyond design, she also researched, developed and designed a series of bespoke customised light fixtures under her eponymous lighting brand. As a fellow designer who loves to design bespoke furniture and interior accessorie­s, I find that extremely inspiring.”

WANNASIRI KONGMAN, CO-FOUNDER OF HANDBAG AND ACCESSORIE­S BRAND BOYY “I love that while her bag designs are minimal, sleek and almost masculine, her personal style aesthetic is anything but boring. I am always inspired by her larger than life fashion sense, which seems to resonate strongly with her personalit­y.”

JILL KORTLEVE, MODEL “I stand behind her message of body positivity and championin­g that everyone should be celebrated for their individual beauty so strongly. She looks so darn good in everything, and I literally want to buy everything she models.

PHOEBE PHILO, FASHION DESIGNER “I really admired her work when she was creative director of Celine. I felt that she was really tuned in to the female energies of the epoch, and her designs pushed boundaries and empowered the contempora­ry working woman through fashion.”
