Street style: Eva Fontanelli

Yesterday I happened to browse through the book The Sartorialist and I came across the photos of Eva Fontanelli, editor at Elle Italia. It’s a pleasure to watch her: a wonderful smile, a very distinctive style, entirely her own, I see her as a person who loves to play with fashion and I love the fact that she wears ballet flats with the conviction with which other fashion editors wear high heels. “Eva somehow combines an Audrey Hepburn charm with the style of a budding star stylist. She has one of those personal styles that is maddening to try to describe. She can wear a look that on paper should never be tried, but that somehow on her just works – I mean, it just works. Well, with Eva don’t try to copy her, just try to enjoy the show.” Scott Schuman. True.

    Thank you for sharing, I hadn’t seen some of these. She’s fabulous and of course she’s wearing that citrus pattern of Stella McCartney that I just can’t stand, hahah … but on her it’s perfect 😉

    Oh I loove her style as well, it’s definitely very Audrey Hepburn-ish with a twist! She’s beautiful as well – that 2nd pic is just stunning 🙂

    Happy Sunday Ada! x

    What a lovely lady. It’s true, she does have that Audrey’s allure and I wouldn’t mind imitating her either. I’m not sure about the last outfit but I would love to wear each and everyone in the rest images. I mean how cute is that white dress?

    Have a great week!

    I love her style! I’m a ballet flats kind of girl myself, and she rocks it. She has a gamine look to her—so charming.
