SHE WILL NOT HIDE...
...that she loves fashion, although "living" it from the inside, she's never been addicted or a slave to it.
(Actually, in her line of business, fashion is but a small portion of the whole production process that is eminently technical. And she's very happy that it be so.)

But talking about fashion: for her, nothing beats YSL's original Le Smoking which is still a timeless classic, 46 years after its first release in 1966. Her mother had one and she remembers trying it on as she was a teen. A few years back, she bought one and it's never been out of fashion. A new shirt, strictly white for business events!, a new bow and it's all it takes to make it perfect (particularly if, under it, she wears the flimsiest, naughtiest lingerie).
It's interesting (and, she'll admit it, even funny) to see that, during these evenings, when large dinners are held as some kind of get-together among clients, designers, consultants and suppliers, even in the presence of lovely beauties wearing magnificent, low-cut gowns, her strict tuxedo usually is the centre of more or less everyone's attention. Women seem to feel a little overdressed and men...well, men probably find her a little forbidding (or do they?) and one can read a big question mark in their eyes.
With her tuxedo, she usually wears Caovilla's or Sergio Rossi's sandals: a little of France and a little of Italy's best. No jewellery (save for her tiny earrings) and almost no makeup (just some beige lipstick and nail enamel and light gray eyeshadow).
After all, it's her black "smoking" suit that plays the lead role !
