INFLUENCE OF THE STYLE ICON

Camille Bidault-Waddington is one of my style icons. Not only is she a successful and influential stylist, she is actually able to sell a look with widespread appeal through sassy and easily translatable images (check out her collaboration with APC). She’s the kind of girl who can set the mood for a collection or a shoot and take seemingly small things (like a pair of shoes) to give an outfit enormous effect. She’s cutting edge and should be applauded for her directionalism, edge and sense of playfulness. Her unique and noteworthy style seems to rest on a sense of drama and humour through which she has gained her international reputation as well as editorial attention. I love the modern nostalgia she embodies so well. The general tone of her outfits is always charming and quirky, suggesting a drop of improvisation, vaguely reminiscent of the seventies or classic English roses. She has captured my heart.
