Inspiration | Our 5 faves | International Women’s Day

As it’s International Women’s day we’re taking a look at our biggest female inspirations! From the sultry style of Kate Moss to the powerhouse that is Michelle Obama here are our 5 favourite females.

KATE MOSS

Our Mossy rules in the style stakes. It takes a special someone to be able to pull off both ends of the style spectrum; from pretty girl to grungy waif and everything in-between with so little (perceived) effort but maximum effect. All Hail Queen Kate!

MICHELLE OBAMA

First Ladies have a history of being power-women in their own right and Michelle is no exception. Her charitable gung-ho, her strong voice in support of discriminated peoples, her impeccable style, her undoubtable intelligence, her impossible cool, the list goes on and on and on and on.

IRIS APFEL

“People like me because I’m different” – The New York darling that is Ms Apfel taught us the untimely truth that individuality is key and because of this we are eternally indebted to her.

DAME ZAHA HADID

A true powerhouse – quite literally. This Dame is not to be taken lightly. She’s conquered a lot of firsts. The first woman to win the Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2004 followed by the first woman to win the Design Museum Design of the Year Award in 2014 and most recently by being awarded the RIBA gold medal in 2015, once again being the first woman to receive the accolade. Need we say more?

CHARLOTTE TILBURY

That Eyeliner, That Fringe, That million-pound company, That inescapable talent with a makeup brush. This Makeup Mogul with a makeup brand that came out of nowhere to compete with all the major player  needs no introduction. Her style is universally recognised and her artistic skill has graced the faces of the celebrity elite.
