Even Gwenyth Paltrow is a fan of this British brand
Photo: Courtesy of Amy Powney Amy Powney has been at Mother of Pearl, a British brand known for classic pieces, for over a decade. But when she became the creative director, she knew she wanted to make the company sustainable — to be an example of how to turn a contemporary brand into an ethical one. And during her tenure, she has successfully put ecofriendliness at the heart of the brand without sacrificing style.
What is a trend that you like right now? Sustainability, but hopefully it will become a cool classic that doesn’t fade.Favorite museum/gallery? The Barbican in London. Shoes you wear most often?A fancy flat. I have a pair from Mother of Pearl which are black mules with a pearl strap. I am a casual dresser so I like a fun shoe. Once a man came up to me in the street and told me my shoes were so ugly he needed a painkiller to look at them, I laughed so much I made him say it again to camera for my Instagram.
