HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR PERSONAL STYLE?
“I am an eclectic chameleon who swears by the motto: 'Fashion is fun.' My style is colourful, feminine and bold."
WHAT IS YOUR ULTIMATE FASHION HACK?
“Every outfit instantly looks much better with the right jewellery and accessories. They can take your entire look to a whole new level!"
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE NEW CAPSULE COLLECTION AND WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE ITEM?
“I am in love with the purple multi-coloured jumper! It makes me immensely happy to see Xandres asking themselves how they can take better care of the planet as a company. There is so much you can do with deadstock yarns and fabrics, and these jumpers are a perfect example of that."

WHAT DOES XANDRES REPRESENT TO YOU?
WHAT APPEALS TO YOU ABOUT THE BRAND?
“I see Xandres as a strong brand that dresses confident women—women who know what they want, who pursue their dreams. I believe all women should be that way. When I dress my clients, I always try to bring out their best, most powerful side."
WHAT ARE YOUR STYLING TIPS FOR THIS COLLECTION?
"Creating volume with multiple layers makes your look just that bit more interesting. Pair your jumper with a long, sleeveless coat, or wear a funky shirt underneath. Also, don't be afraid to experiment with different textures, and feel free to mix clashing prints!"

WHAT DOES SUSTAINABLE FASHION MEAN TO YOU? HOW DOES THIS MANIFEST IN YOUR PRIVATE WARDROBE?
“For me, it means buying consciously. My job as a stylist requires me to always be on trend for my clients and projects, but even then, I always try to give the items I purchase a second life. I never just throw them away, but I make sure they are used for something."
DO YOU HAVE ANY TIPS FOR SUSTAINABLE SHOPPING?
“Regularly dive into your closet and ask yourself what you no longer wear. There is no better feeling than giving, so gift those items to the people you love!"
