Taylor Tomasi Hill was in town recently to introduce her collection with Sarah Rutson, Lane Crawford‘s Fashion Director at the Spring/Summer preview held recently.  Taylor is Artistic Director of Moda Operandi, the very cool site that lets you pre-order a collection from the runway.  She is also a former style and accessories director for Marie Claire and muse to Prabal Gurung, this is Taylor’s first attempt at her own collection.

“The collection came about as a collaboration with Sarah Rutson, this is our second collaboration on the Heritage 160 Anniversary of Lane Crawford where I designed a trenchcoat for them. This is a capsule collection based on my wardrobe, it was basically 7 key pieces from my own wardrobe” at a great price point say Taylor.  The idea for these pieces are that they are easy pieces that can be incorporated into your existing wardrobe, that you can mix and match.

Butterboom: Describe your style

Taylor Tomasi Hill: I love menswear. have always been about mixing feminine pieces with menswear. I am obsessed with classic men’s button downs (white shirts, tuxedo shirt). have a Dries Van Norten black and white check shirt that I can’t live without.

Butterboom: Do you plan what to wear?

Taylor Tomasi Hill: I go with what I feel on the day, its more in the moment for me. I am not one for planning the outfit the night before

Butterboom: What do you think of Hong Kong’s fashion style

Taylor Tomasi Hill: Hong Kong girls definitely take a bit more risk than Americans

Butterboom: What would you never be seen in?

Taylor Tomasi Hill:  You will never find me in a Juicy Couture sweat suit and Ugg boots
