Daphne Guinness

Heir to the famed Guinness fortune and an avid Haute Couture collector, Daphne Guinness is one of the fashion industries most prominent figures and one of my ultimate style icons for her brazen and fearless ways with fashion. From designing her own sought after jewellery and collaborating on a perfume with Comme des Garcons, Daphne can and has done no wrong this year so I am bestowing her with my award for 'Fearless Female of the Year'! And to prove just how fierce and fearless Daphne is, here she is at the Purple Magazine offices just chillin, you know, in the most RIDICULOUS clothes...no wait, clothes isnt a good enough word; costumes...Oh and note the insane glitter Natacha Marro shoes - Daphne helped champion her and I found a great interview here with her where she talks about her clients Daphne and Lady Gaga.
