Lyn Devon
After starting her career designing for Ralph Lauren, Lyn Devon established her own name with her understated, modish eponymous line. She’s been labeled a “rising star” by Fashion Group International, won the prestigious Ecco Domani Fashion Foundation Award and called a “no nonsense,” “ultra-chic,” talent by the fashion bible WWD. Here, she talks to Uinterview about her inspirations, idols and the buzz of New York Fashion Week.
Waking up on the morning of my presentation to the WWD cover.
From my clients, and the clothing that they need and love and live in.
For spring, it’s my white cotton canvas voluminous day dress—the Ella dress. It’s effortless and fun and I will wear it day and night.
The menswear inspired pieces, like my silk and linen boxy Kate blazer and Truman Trouser in white or black. Wearing these boyish elements with feminine colors and silks is the most playful and dynamic way to dress!
Buy one great item to refresh your wardrobe, a piece that you can wear back to all the basics you already own and love. Like a bright silk chiffon blouse.
Past: Kate Hepburn, Audrey Hepburn, Claire McCardell, Coco Chanel, Lee Radziwill. Present: Lauren Hutton, Tilda Swinton, Marina Rust Conner, Brooke Neidich, my mom.
I have so many. I will say Raf Simons for Jill Sander. For his precision, his classicism, his sense of luxury sportswear.
I would have become an explorer and travel writer.
