Hi, I’m Sylvie Mus.
We’re here in Helsinki
and I am about to do The Fashion Challenge
with NET-A-PORTER.
So...
you wake up and check your emails.
only to find that an important Zoom meeting
has been pulled forward
in fact, starting in five minutes.
How do you create a look that strikes
the perfect balance between chic and comfortable?
OK.
In five minutes, what can I do?
Well, for sure, I know that I want to do some sort of
button-down shirt.
This one looks cool.
I’m gonna go with these pants.
Yeah, I’ll be back.
Oh, these are so cool!
I’m pretty sure the meeting is starting without me.
Too many buttons on this shirt.
OK.
I think I’m gonna go like this.
And I wanna do some accessories.
I think I’m gonna go for these ones.
OK, I don’t know how to open this.
Forget it.
And then...
I’ll just do sandals.
These are really cool.
Do I need a bag for this?
No, I don’t.
OK, and that’s it.
I think this is the look for the Zoom meeting.
I like mixing different shades of white together.
I feel like all I have been doing lately
is having Zoom meetings.
Not this dressed up, though
usually just the top part.
For this occasion, you know
also the bottom half is gonna look good.
As a fashion expert
who has spent months in lockdown,
you’ve mastered the art of off-duty dressing.
Can you show us how it’s done?
For off-duty dressing,
I know for sure, I like to go with denim.
I’m gonna go with these.
I’m thinking a little top.
Maybe this one.
This is the look,
though I think I’m going to change the top
and go with this one after all.
Be right back.
Such a pretty top.
Yeah, this is much better.
I’m gonna go with sandals.
I’m thinking these ones.
I probably want to put a blazer over this.
I love this color!
Yes, for sure. This one.
I’m thinking some hoops with this one.
Yeah, I like these ones.
The earrings are a challenge in itself.
No chain,
but I will do sunglasses.
I’m gonna try these ones on first.
No.
Small sunglasses are always the best ones, I think.
Yeah, these ones look pretty cool.
For a bag
I’m gonna go with a white one,
because I think it’s a good contrast.
I think I’m done.
I think this is the look.
So, this is my off-duty look.
At home, I wear a lot of denim.
I wear a lot of oversized, comfortable stuff.
Normally, I don’t wear a purse at home
but, you know, for the occasion.
Pretty much something like this,
but like a lot more low-key.
So, last challenge.
With socializing back on the agenda,
albeit at a distance,
your friends plan a picnic in the park.
What are you wearing for your first outing?
Oh, I like this!
For my first outing at a park,
and I love park dates,
I’m thinking maybe something super-casual,
but also kind of dressed up.
If it’s the first social outing,
of course, I feel like I want it to be a bit special.
I’m thinking a skirt would be really cool.
A casual top, or maybe a turtleneck.
No.
Casual top. I mean, it is summer.
This is super-cool. Yeah.
I’ll be back.
OK.
Yeah, this looks really good.
Now, I’m gonna go with some strappy sandals.
I like these ones.
These are super-cute.
Yeah, this looks really good.
Probably gonna go with this bag
perfect for a park date.
Hmm, earrings.
I’ll go with these ones.
These are really cool.
But I’m probably gonna want to do some sort of jacket,
in case it rains,
because it usually does here.
I’m gonna go with darker denim,
so it goes with the skirt.
So, I’ll do this, but I’ll do it over the bag.
Yeah, I like that. So, this is the look.
This is what I’ll go to the park in.
I love wearing black and white.
I think it’s super-cool, super-chic,
very effortless.
And it’s very casual for the park.
I feel like I have been waiting for so long
to get back outside.
I think this is the perfect
“first time outside again” look.
So, this was the NET-A-PORTER Fashion Challenge.
*laughs*
How do you guys think I did?
