The Handbag’s Best Friend
EVE, singer and clothing designer.
WHAT I’M WEARING NOW A bustier and pair of jeans from my line Fetish. The jewelry is Citrine, designed by a friend of a friend. And the bag is Balenciaga. It’s pink, my favorite color. I call it my girlfriend. We go everywhere together.
STYLE CREDO I love fashion, but if I could wear jeans and a T-shirt to every event, I’d be very happy.
WHEN DRESSING UP IS REQUIRED I love Louis Vuitton — you can’t go wrong in it. Stella McCartney is also a favorite. And Zac Posen. If I need a dress, I usually pull things from him. But I’ve also bought dresses of his. I buy more than I should.
LAST BIG PURCHASE(S) A pair of Alexander McQueen shoes. They’re black patent leather and gold with skulls at the end of the laces. And a sequin, navy blue and gold Chanel bag. I also have my eye on a pair of cream and black Chanel boots that go over the knee.
ON THE PAW PRINT TATTOOS I got them at 18. It was very much a rebellious act. Now that I’m 29, I consider them a part of me. I have no regrets. But ask me when I start breast-feeding and they turn into human hands.
ON THE AGENDA I’m relaunching Fetish this month, for the third time around. The materials are now a hundred times better, and it’s more grown up. It’s what I love to wear. I’m also recording my next album, which will hopefully be out in the fall. It’s fun music — the kind you want to listen to when you’re getting dressed.
