An Acne shirt.
How would you describe your personal style?
Smart and with a bit of tailoring and comfort.
What’s the latest label you’ve discovered?
Haider Ackerman - some seriously good tailoring.
What is there too much of in your wardrobe?
Black
What are your go-to labels?
Theory - they do the best shirts and I love how each shirt has a little detail that makes it not just any old shirt. Equipment have such wicked stuff and I never fail wearing Sandro, their coats are amazing and I feel great in their clothes. I also have fallen in love with Helmut Lang.

My American Apparel jodhpurs and with a good shirt and Penelope Chilvers slippers and some big hoops!
What’s the most treasured item in your wardrobe?
My YSL tuxedo blazer or my Miu Miu coat.
What have you done for the love of fashion?
Worn 7 inch Miu Miu heels all day whilst out and about in Paris. It was hard work but I got through it for the love of Miu Miu.
What’s your sartorial guilty pleasure?
Cheap and huge hoop earrings
How do you get ready for an event like the Mercuries?
I don't know! I have never been to an awards show! I will have my lovely stylist there and she will make me all excited! My hair and make-up artists have done this many times, so they are always reassuring and make me feel like a princess.
British female artists are having a real moment – how does it feel to be part of such an exciting time?
I love it that there are loads of great singers out there, and it feels good to be a part of it.
What's playing on your iPod this week?
