[Venetia] I work for Marc Jacobs and I work

as a freelance fashion editor.

I think everything.

Movies. Music, maybe.

Not so much music.

People. Either old hippies or some sort of mutant woman.

That's always constant with me.

How many pairs of shoes do I have?

Forty? Sixty? A lot of shoes.

[Olivia] I'm Olivia Kim. I run a showroom

for Opening Ceremony.

My personal style is thrown together.

I'm really in to platform shoes right now.

I love layering. I'm really in to muted colors.

The fashion rule I always break is probably just

wearing the most impractical things at the wrong times

or being over-dressed for the most casual occasions.

My favorite perfume is the Comme des Garçons Kyoto scent

mixed with Kiehl's Musk.

It smells like Fahrenheit and you know, that's like

quintessential eight grade prom dance. So everybody's

like you smell like my eight grade boyfriend.

[Karen] The best advice I've ever gotten is

to wear things that suit your body.

I'm a photographer. Japanese Vogue, Chinese Vogue,

inaudible, British Vogue.

I'm wearing Chanel shoes, overalls,


a vintage jacket, and a necklace that's a gift from

my boyfriend's mother.

Um, I love Balenciaga,

Marc Jacobs, YSL right now.

I mix a lot of vintage and mix designers.
