THE OLDER AND BOLDER BRIGADE The Older and Bolder Brigade celebrate life with equal measures of energy and eye-popping accessories. Fashion freedom fighters like Iris Apfel, Linda Rodin and Beatrix Ost are styling it out on the streets of New York, not sitting at home in elasticated waist slacks and slippers. These women are confident, creative and they care about how they look. This flamboyant, peacock-style is all about individuality and enjoyment. “It’s not vanity,” Ari Seth Cohen of Advanced Style says. “They’re doing it for themselves because it makes them feel good and lifts the spirits.” More Style Heroines: Catherine Baba, Lucinda Chambers, Helena Bonham Carter.
THE SCANDANISTA CLEVER NEUTRALS: Nicola is wearing rollneck from American Vintage at Grace and Mabel. Dungarees by Lurdes Bergada, and cuff, £69, both Blue @ the Loft, Bath. Shoes, £129, Ash at Grace and Mabel
The Scandinista has her own laid-back style and an array of fabulous homegrown brands. Unafraid to play around with masculine and feminine silhouettes, she loves mannish jackets and coats, minimal shapes, neutral colours and natural fabrics. But it’s not all boyfriend jackets and shades of greige, The Scandinista has an innate fondness for nautical stripes, patterned knitwear and beautiful bright prints. The Style Heroines: Crown Princess Mary of Denmark, Helena Christensen, bloggers Elin Kling and Pernille Teisbaek.
