Every time I see this cover I smile in disbelief because it still doesn’t feel real. Growing up I always admired the women on the covers of magazines and never thought that one day I was going to see myself up there too. To me, these faces were, and still are, the epitome of beauty, intelligence, and sophistication, so you can imagine I feel very grateful for the opportunity.
I still can’t believe how beautiful the weather was in Paris. With the sun shining, I was so happy to be there and it made our visit that much more enjoyable. I love wandering the streets because every location feels like a picture perfect place—I could have spent the whole day taking pictures! Other than the exquisite architecture and vibrant energy, one of the best parts is seeing what the locals are wearing because Parisian men and women give off such a cool sophisticated vibe that seems effortless. There is a reason this is one of the fashion capitals of the world! So when dressing for a day out in the city, I really wanted to embody the liveliness of Paris and translate it into my look.
We just got back from Paris Fashion Week and we had such a wonderful time! It was so much fun that it's hard to believe that fashion month is officially over. I felt so productive with the amount of work I got done in the last month—It's amazing what you can get done in one day! Every day was very exciting and I was so energized by everything we did that I'm a little sad that it's over. What a priceless experience it all was and I'm already looking forward to the next fashion month! Now before I talk too much about Paris, I just want to take you back to Milan where I got to put a contemporary twist on a timeless fairy tale.
