found inspiration at jumble sales,

in Colette's novels and Harris Reed in the gender fluidity of
Virginia Woolf
's
Orlando

understood the importance of proportions,
Stanley Tucci
favours a narrow stripe and
Chloë Sevigny
delights in traditional, with a twist. For
Bernardine Evaristo
style is about a refusal to be stereotyped.
Jilly Cooper
and
AJ Tracey
appreciate retail therapy.
Sienna Miller
misses the freedom of a less self-conscious age. For
