Tayla Broad on her fashion favourites

What are the three essential items in your wardrobe? An oversized black blazer – I like Kookai and Bec + Bridge for day, and Effie Kats for evening – Henne “Valentina” jeans in every colour, and a little black dress with a cinched waist.

Any go-to jewellery? I wear chunky Anna Rossi bracelets and some sentimental pieces by Linden Cook – a heart pendant with the birthstones of my husband and daughter, and a fingerprint necklace with my dog’s nose print.

Can you remember a favourite outfit you wore as a child? There was a sparkly polka-dot top that made me feel like the bee’s knees as a primary school kid.

What was your first fashion moment? Wearing one of those iconic mini dresses with beaded bra cups on a year 9 river cruise.

And your worst fashion mistake? I am mortified to say I owned a pair of galaxy-print leggings.

What’s on your wish list? I’d love a Cartier “Tank Must” or “Panthère” watch, but my husband is not sold on the idea.

Is there something you would never wear? The nude look that celebrities like Bianca Censori are rocking.

Is there a current trend you like? I’m loving slouchy, high-waisted tailored pants. My mum would always say “wear a dress” but I love a cool pair of pants all year round.

What do you sleep in? I live in Melbourne and there’s no cute lingerie or PJs worth risking hypothermia for so it’s track pants and a big jumper.

What shoes do you wear most often? New Balance “550” and Adidas “Spezial” sneakers. Also, my Birkenstock “Arizonas”.

Who are your favourites fashion icons? Nadia Bartel is killing it; she’s always styled perfectly, down to her nails. I also love Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Elsa Hosk.

What do you wear on a typical working day? Tailored pants with a crisp white Assembly Label shirt, a grey pin-stripe blazer and a kitten heel.

What’s your favourite off-duty, casual Sunday look? I’ll be heading to Pilates in Leelo activewear, followed by a walk with the family.
