Absolutely meets Fanny Moizant, the founder of the successful designer resale site Vestiaire Collective. Offering fashion-lovers the chance to pass their second hand designer pieces onto appreciative new owners, the entrepreneurial site has gone from strength-to-strength, with an ever-growing international community of five million users and 4,000 luxury brands.
We picked Fanny’s brains to find out what makes her tick: from restaurants and beauty to hot new brands…Favourite fashion designer?
I really love what Julie de Libran is doing at Sonia Rykiel, but also Demna Gvasalia at Vêtement. Shoe wise I am fan of Franceso Russo and Gianvitto Rossi.
Ultimate style icon?
I love Charlotte Gainsbourg – she makes denim look chic even when paired with a simple white t-shirt.Brand to watch for 2017?
Racil, they make the most amazing blazers that fit perfectly!
Hero buy for AW16?
Vêtement ankle boots, Racil blazer and a Celine chunky knit
Can’t-live-without beauty product?
Products from Joelle Ciocco are my favourite – I can’t recommend them enough. Joelle is a French Epidemiologist and her products are fantastic because they leave your skin feeling so healthy. You can buy the products in the UK from ohmycream.com, which is a site I’m also obsessed with!Best restaurant (London or international)?
Roka on Charlotte Street in London has the most delicious Japanese food. I love the open kitchen where you can see the food being prepared and pick up some tips. It all adds to the experience.
Favourite way to relax?
Massage at Gazelli.
