Style Influencer of the Year: Nicole Richie
As a young girl, Nicole Richie would sit in her mother’s dressing room, watching as she tried on Alaïa dresses.
“She was my first introduction to getting dressed up and going out,” Richie said of her mother, Brenda Harvey. “The 1980s were really aggressive for [style].” And just like that, Richie’s love of fashion was born.
Today, the 33-year-old designer and TV personality is making bold statements of her own. Besides being a fashion icon, she is also the creative force behind the House of Harlow 1960 brand, which has grown from footwear and apparel into a lifestyle offering encompassing everything from jewelry and handbags to sunglasses.
In addition, Richie returned to the small screen this year in “Candidly Nicole,” a VH1 series that shows off both her comedy chops and fashion sense. Richie’s on-set wardrobe often includes items from Balenciaga, Manolo Blahnik, Céline and Gianvito Rossi, as well as her own line.
Actress and friend Cameron Diaz believes that people admire Richie’s style because it’s relatable.
“Nicole can take any era of fashion and make it seem classic, modern and chic,” said Diaz, who happens to be dating Benji Madden, the twin brother of Richie’s husband, Joel Madden. “Whether [she’s doing] bohemian or wearing vibrant color or patterns, it looks fresh and wearable. She sets a [high] bar of aspiration, but at the same time [she’s] totally accessible.”
Rick Cytrynbaum, CEO of Montreal-based Modern Vintage, which owns House of Harlow, agreed: “[Nicole] is easy to talk to and vibe with. She does things off-the-cuff — she’s a trendsetter. It’s hard to define what ‘it’ is, but she has it.”
The star said she likes to forge her own fashion path and hopes her House of Harlow fans do the same. “I encourage my customers not to focus on trends, [but instead] focus on being an individual and dressing for themselves,” Richie said. “It’s about understanding what makes them feel confident. If you look at yourself as a canvas, you’re able to present yourself to the world in whatever way you want.”
Right now, Richie is all about color — consider her hair, which this year transitioned from pale lavender to a dark blue. She told Footwear News that jewel tones are a particular favorite of hers for warming up the winter months.
Richie is constantly evolving her appearance. “My style changes all the time — that’s the fun part,” she said. “There are so many things I was closed off to in my early 20s that I’m open to now. Fashion really is an art.”
It’s no surprise, then, that she takes inspiration from musicians like her famous father, Lionel Richie. She cited Anita Pallenberg, Keith Richards, David Bowie, Bianca Jagger and Goldie Hawn as favorites, as well as others. “I admire anyone who goes full force with who they are. Beyoncé and I don’t have a similar style at all, but she takes fashion risks,” Richie said. “Rihanna looks incredible every time I see her. She goes 100 percent with [her choices].”
The designer also turns to music to help spark new ideas for her collection. “I get together with [my teams] from every category, and we meet at my house and listen to music. It really gets me into that creative space,” she explained.
Richie taps into her huge social media following for ideas and insight, too. “Instagram is a [favorite],” she said. “I love seeing the different ways people are wearing the brand. It inspires me to look at it from their world.”
Katherine Power, co-founder and creative director of celebrity fashion site Whowhatwear.com, noted that Richie’s eclectic sensibility appeals to a broad audience. “Nicole’s style truly represents her lifestyle. She’s a little bit rock ’n’ roll, a little bit boho-hippy and a little bit Hollywood glamour. This interesting mashup makes her accessible to a lot of different people,” Power said.
But, she added, “Even though she has the most enviable closet, she is most comfortable when she’s at home in a soft cashmere sweater, sweatpants and some House of Harlow slip-ons.”
