WHAT DOES EUROPE MEAN TO YOU?
Europe is a phenomenal place. I think one’s birthplace is a huge part of one’s being; Copenhagen is, therefore, always going to be where I feel at home. I feel very fortunate that
my work has taken me to some of Europe’s most incredible cities, and it always thrills me; there is always something new (or usually incredibly old) to see. Within such short distances, the towns, cities and villages that you see are all so different; the variety of social and physical landscapes is incredible.
WHAT IS YOUR SHOPPING STYLE?
Like a lot of people I like to shop, not usually in the traditional way; busy high streets and crowds of people do not make for the best experience. Making sure I keep a little free time when I am travelling is very precious to me. With my son based in New York, unless he is with me in Europe during the summer or Christmas holidays, my time is always limited. My diary is packed with shows, exhibitions, photoshoots – it never stops. So for me it becomes like a jigsaw, making sure that somewhere in my schedule there’s still a gap for some shopping.
WHAT MAKES A MEMORABLE SHOPPING EXPERIENCE?
When I can, I get out of the city. Sometimes it’s great to get out of the noise and traffic.
The Chic Outlet Shopping® Villages allow people to shop in the fresh air and beautiful
scenery, and to wander the luxury boutiques, browse and stop for coffee or a bite to eat.
