Style Inspo: Why Personal Style Matters More Than Trends

Personal style is the ultimate fashion Everest.

To help us navigate the challenge of defining personal style in a world of fast-moving trends, we have the poster girl of personal style herself, Megan Hess. Megan shares how she discovered her signature floaty, elegant style, how she stays true to it in an ever-changing fashion landscape, and how she’s infused it into everything from luxury campaigns to her 22 best-selling books.

Megan is a globally renowned fashion illustrator, having worked with top brands like Fendi, Prada, and Dior. She’s also the creative mind behind the illustrations for the New York Times #1 bestseller Sex and the City... maybe you've heard of it.

You can buy Megan's latest book here: Fashion in Colour, A Journey through Every Hue
