You often wear younger designers, like Jason Wu and Zang Toi - is there something in particular you look for in newer designers? What is it about these lines that attracts your eye?

Julie Macklowe, Jason WuI like to find designers who have great and interesting clothing but perhaps not everyone knows them. While Jason Wu wasn’t a household name when I started to wear him, he’s obviously well known now so I’m off to find another new designer! It always helps to know I won’t show up in the exact same clothing as someone else like I did in 2008 when I wore the same red ball gown to the Met Costume Institute Gala- embarrassing! Do you have a tenet, or perhaps a single concept that you can tell us that would explain your personal sense of style? Fearlessness and, as Dolly said, bigger is better! At the end of the day you can’t worry about what everyone else thinks. It only steers you wrong. [Julie Macklowe, Jason Wu]
