Alexa Chung says every wardrobe needs “staple items to act as the pillars or the architecture for the house you’re building”.

The 34-year-old model-turned-fashion designer thinks that every woman’s clothing collection should have a selection of staple items which act as the “architecture for the house you’re building”, and her must-have garments include denim, a blazer and “iconic trainers”.

In an interview with Vogue Australia, she said: “I think it’s about having enough staple items to act as the pillars or the architecture for the house you’re building. For the clothes, that would be the perfect denim, a great blazer, a really comfy sweater, maybe a plain white t-shirt, and some iconic sneakers. Then around that, you can incorporate like a Maryam Nassir Zadeh tiny handbag, or like a lime green see-through dress or some cycling shorts, or whatever! So you’ll have enough items to counter-balance the weirdness.”

She said: “I think my whole opinion on personal style and getting dressed is that its personal experience, so I’ve never been someone who wants to give advice because I don’t think it should be prescriptive. I think people should find their own way, celebrate who they are and individualism is key!
