Jamie’s Picks: Explore our Q+A with Model and Fashion Muse Jamie Nguyen
Explore our Q+A with Model and Fashion Muse Jamie Nguyen, the face of our latest campaign, as we discuss her top picks from the collection, her style icons and how she uses fashion as a way of self expression and to be authentically herself.
TO BEGIN, HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR PERSONAL STYLE IN THREE WORDS?
Effortless, minimal & edgy.
WHO ARE SOME OF YOUR STYLE ICONS, THE PEOPLE WHO INSPIRE YOUR FASHION SENSE AND OUTFITS?
Aside from strangers I see on the streets - Jane Birkin, Kate Moss, Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy, Brigitte Bardot.
THROUGHOUT THE CAMPAIGN YOU GOT A TASTE OF ALL THE UPCOMING LOOKS, WHAT ARE YOUR FAVOURITE PIECES FROM THE COLLECTION?
The Emory coat, or the Carolina trench coat & pants are such classic seasonal staples!
FOR SOME STYLE INSPIRATION FOR OUR UPCOMING COLLECTION, WE ARE GOING TO GET YOU TO GIVE US A STYLE GUIDE FOR THREE DIFFERENT TYPES OF OUTERWEAR!
FAVOURITE WAY TO STYLE A CLASSIC TRENCH COAT?
Undone and unbuttoned with some relaxed pants.
TEDDY JACKET?
The more oversized the better!
AND FINALLY, OVERSIZED COAT?
Oversized coats are my favourite winter pieces, they go with everything and elevate the look so go wild with your outfit.
HOW DOES FASHION AS A FORM OF SELF EXPRESSION COME INTO PLAY IN YOUR DAILY LIFE?
As an introverted person, my outfits sometimes help speak for me and my personality, and give me the confidence almost nothing else can.
YOUR GO-TO UNIFORM WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO WEAR?
Oversized blazer, tank top, low waisted pants and kitten heels.
YOU HAVE AN INCREDIBLE INSTAGRAM AND WORK WITH SOME AMAZING BRANDS, HOW DO YOU USE YOUR FOLLOWING TO INSPIRE OTHERS AND SHOW YOUR PERSONALITY?
Thank you so much! As someone who likes to separate work from personal life, I try to connect with my audience as much as I can through our mutual love for fashion and beauty. I love inspiring people to be fearless in their self expression through style and creativity.
ANY TREND PREDICTIONS FOR 2024?
I think bows, sheer layering and deep reds will continue to be big. Cheetah print might make a comeback as well!
