NAME: Teri Iskowitz
OCCUPATION: “CPA- not exciting but allows me to indulge in my fashion whims.”
SUM OF THE PARTS: Tulle skirt: Comme des Garcons (“Purchased during pandemic with hope social events would return some day”); Studded Leather Moto Jacket in black licorice: “Alice & Olivia”; Purse: Judith Leiber (“I love Hello Kitty”).
STYLE PHILOSOPHY: “Eclectic: mixing high, low, vintage and latest pieces. No two days are ever the same style. depends on my mood. Wear what makes you happy! My style differs from day to day. Love punk rock looks from the 70s! Hence studded jacket from Alice and Olivia. Pink is a favorite color.”
NUGGETS of i-CANDY: Teri’s contrast of tough/punk/badass, with the studded jacket ( ) – with the whimsical/ballet/frothy/sweet girl skirt – indicates a lot of sides to her style personality. (I would definitely wear this! – MG). It defies age or simplification. You know an interesting human being is the room – and she’s got cool stuff to say.
i-CANDY RATING: TEN CANDY APPLES: for the cool and complicated contrast of sweet, crunchy and tough!!!
NAME: Karl Bernardo
OCCUPATION: can be as detailed (and whimsical) as you like. Jack-of-all-trades menswear designer for an LA-based company
SUM OF THE PARTS: Suit and shoes: Alessandro Michele-era Gucci Bag: Saint Laurent Jewelry: Baccarat, Tiffany, Cartier and a few heirloom pieces on loan from Mom
STYLE PHILOSOPHY: Iris Apfel with a tinge of rebellious Ivy League prep and a sprinkle of japanese sensibility… comfortably chic, effortlessly epic, irresistibly kooky!
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR SENSE OF STYLE IN GENERAL??? I’d say it’s eclectic, bold and experimental. A definite chameleon! I enjoy mixing patterns, textures and silhouettes to create a unique look to fit whatever mood I’m in. I feel inspired in the curation of things both old and new, and love juxtaposing elements that are unexpected and hoping that it works!
i-CANDY RATING: TEN CANDY APPLES: for the cool and complicated contrast of sweet, crunchy and tough!!!
NAME: Naomi Blanco
OCCUPATION: Model with the Marilyn Agency
SUM OF THE PARTS:Naomi could wear the proverbial paper bag and look divine – but instead, she went with an avocado green bodycon dress that could only really flatter her kind of figure.
STYLE PHILOSOPHY: Chic and sleek
NUGGETS OF i-CANDY:Not the easiest color to wear – in fact, harder than it looks. It’s a remarkably simple dress – but if you have hair like Naomi’s, what else do you need? Um – her face, I guess.
i-CANDY RATING: Ten scoops of pistachio ice cream, cause if she drops any, it wouldn’t show on the dress.
And it looks good on her.
NAME: Soukeyna Diouf
OCCUPATION: Senegalese Model, U.N. Healthcare Advocate
SUM OF THE PARTS: A white feathered hemmed mini dress could come off childish on an adult woman. But Souykena looks womanly in the best of all ways: innocence, with a touch on insouciance. She knows how to play with this dress – and play is what it inspires.
STYLE PHILOSOPHY: Soukeyna is a glamor girl, she wears all style looks with ease – to the delight of her nearly 300,000 Insta followers.
NUGGETS of i-CANDY: This is an easy dress to look foolish in – unless you’re its perfect candidate. Still, it takes chutzpah – and knowing how to pose.
i-CANDY RATING: Ten Milky Ways – because milk color takes nerve. And a steady hand, as one drop of white wine and you’re dead.
NAME: Lucinda Jubb & Guest.
NAME: Cara Stricker
OCCUPATION: The evenings DJ with mucho presence.
