Caroline de Maigret, Lincoln Centre, NYC, September 2014.

Caroline has such great (individual) style and the flash of colour across her sweater, accented by her cobalt blue clutch is just so nice. An outfit most girls would feel comfortable wearing in "real life" (as opposed to just "fashion week life!").

Paris Men's Fashion Week SS 2011...Girls Under The Influence

Girls Under the Influence of Boys.

One of my absolute favourite looks is women wearing menswear inspired pieces (or indeed actual clothes borrowed from their man). So I was especially excited at the Kenzo men's show to see girls on the runway (Valerija Kelava, Caroline de Maigret, Hannelore Knuts, Joana Preiss and Jenny Shimizu) wearing pieces Kenzo's creative director, Antonio Marras, had created for the boys.

After the show, Caroline de Maigret, model and record producer (her label is Bonus Track Records), above and below.
