We can’t get away from this interview with Simon Doonan for NBC’s First Look. First it was in every cab we took, and then we woke up to it on the news this morning.
In the video – and his new book Eccentric Glamour, Simon pegs stylish women into three categories: the Socialite (diamond-studded grill), the Existentialist (black on black), and the Gypsy (flowy tops).
And he doesn’t forget to offer us plenty of sound bite worthy quotes (“Say no to ho”), and in case you were concerned, assures us that “windows are very democratic,” because we can have “no teeth and be completely destitute and still enjoy a [shop] window.” Who knew?
For the record, our favorite New York City window is the Sixth Avenue puppy shop.
