I have been fascinated by Daphne Guinness ever since I saw her in the documentary about Valentino, The Last Emperor. She appeared for about 10 seconds on screen but she made a very strong impression on me. The following day, I was trying to find on the internet who this woman with bi-colored hair was.
My favorite thing about her very unique style is her fabulous black and white hair and the way she wears it. She looks like a monarchistic widow of another era who went shopping in the future. Some people make fun of her hair but I think it's a masterpiece.
I am showing you two clips today. The first one is a documentary by filmmaker Brennan Stasiewicz and is an intimate portray of Daphne Guinness. The second clip is very simple - the director bumped into her on the street and asked her about what she was wearing. I love how she has that her style is a work in progress...isn't it for all of us fashion lovers?

Here in the UK she is widely known for her quirky style and millions of pounds from her Guiness fortune. I think she is a very different person - to all we know. Eccentric, reminds me of Isabella Blow (and both were mentoring Alexander McQueen). She is an artist in a true meaning of this world.

I think she is absolutely fabulous. I can't think of any other way to describe her. Although I'm very curious to know what her hair looks like when it's not in an updo!
