How would you describe your style? Itโs very relaxed. I go for comfort elevated with accessories. Iโm not trying to be a fashion girl.
Whatโs the oldest thing in your wardrobe? A long, purple, lacy cape that my mum made and wore when she was young. I wear it over a little dress or jeans and singlet. I even wore it to my birthday one year with just a bikini underneath.
And the most recent addition? Pieces from my collaboration with Ena Pelly, EPxEP. I wear heaps of black but Iโm trying to wear more colour, and thatโs what I did with this collection.
What would you wear โฆ on a first date? Jeans, a nice little top and boots. โฆon a plane? Iโd wear โThe Darling Flare Flowโ bodysuit โ from a collab that Chloe [Fisher, friend and podcast co-host] and I did with Nat V โ with a jumper and chunky New Balance sneakers. โฆon the red carpet? Something by Carla Zampatti or Rebecca Vallance.
Whatโs your favourite fashion era? The fun and fruity โ70s, all the bright colours and cool cuts.
Who are your favourite designers? Iโm loving Christopher Esber and Rat & Boa for dressing up, Henne and St Agni for elevated pieces and lounging, Something Very Special for cool and casual and Moda Mittsu when Iโm super chill and just being a mum.
Whatโs your fragrance of choice? I donโt wear perfume, but I have a body oil that I brought out with Rich Glen: itโs olive oil infused with lavender, patchouli and frankincense. It smells amazing.
What are the three essential items in your wardrobe? The black EPxEP โEllidyโ tailored pants are a staple. Also, Gucci sunnies and my Dylan Kain โThe Neveah Slingโ bag; itโs the ultimate travel bag in that it fits way more than it looks.
