Caroline Issa, Tank Magazine

What's your go-to NYFW outfit?
“Especially in February, when it’s so cold and I’m running around a lot, it’s easy separates from 3.1 Phillip Lim, or printed trousers like printed jeans that you can pair with something simple like a black coat and still have that pop of color. Right now, I’m doing solid, simple tops that I pair with my Current/Elliott or Paige jeans, that are just loaded with huge flowers.”

Do you pack in outfits, with a general idea of your looks or do you just mainly put outfits together on the spot?
“You try to plan outfits for the seven days you’re here, but you also bring lots of great separates.”
