VIDEO: Olivia Palermo Dresses InStyle Staffers In Her New Collection
For someone who gets photographed every time she leaves the house, street-style star Olivia Palermo says she feels no pressure. “I dress for myself,” she declares. “That’s what’s most important.” Still, others can’t help but take notice—her haute bohemian–meets-boarding school babe outfits are the stuff of Pinterest legend, Instyle has reported.
Banana Republic agrees that the girl’s got style: The label tapped her as its women’s ambassador last fall, and this month sees Palermo’s designer début for the brand with a 70-item-strong capsule collection that includes sharp military coats and floaty maxidresses crafted from luxe Italian fabric.
“I took their key pieces and elevated them,” she says. “So they’re basics, but special basics.” In this shoot, Palermo demonstrates how these looks can turn the most mundane tasks into full-on fashion moments. As she puts it: “You should never waste a good outfit, even if you don’t leave the house.”
The collection goes live on September 9.
