How to Make a Bold Statement on New Year’s Eve

The Inspiration: Cara and Poppy Delevingne in “Soul Sisters” photographed by Max Vadukul, styled by Giovanna Battaglia Z Magazine. Yes, she had her investors, and her husband and business manager, Chip. But Anne was as much an entrepreneur as she was a designer. She controlled every aspect of her company—which clothes were sold and where, how they were presented—and everyone reported to her. I admired her strength and appreciated how much she sweated the details. Nothing was too small for her to have an opinion about, from the positioning of darts and buttons on a blouse to the coffee mugs we used in the showroom.
