Meet the model: Kim Falvey
Say hello to the gorgeous Kim Falvey, also known as @what_brooke_wore's mum. Kim joined us for her first modelling gig and I can tell you, it won't be the last. Not only did she represent our size 10 ladies with her fabulousness but she brought her gorgeous smile to the set!
What's your age? 61
What's your occupation? Hotelier
What did you want to be when you grew up? a social worker; I wanted to help people, although my family thought I’d be too soft and want to bring everyone home.
What would we find most of in your wardrobe?
Clothes! Brooke would say I have a lot of everything - especially activewear.
Sequins or leopard? leopard.
Handbags or shoes? A bag will probably catch my eye more than a pair of shoes. I’ve got quite a few clutches.
Earrings or arm candy? Neither really; I generally stick to the jewellery my husband has given me, including a new watch for my last birthday which counts as arm candy! I always wear a watch.
Sex and the city or Seinfeld? Sex and the City.
Michael Jackson or Daryl Braithwaite? Daryl Braithwaite.
Pretty Woman or Top Gun? Pretty Woman.
Bubbles or cocktails? I don’t mind a glass of Moët, but I always drink Moscow Mules at our Christmas party.
What's your favourite thing about SYTL?
I love it was designed for women, by a woman who is looking at all our shapes and what we want from clothes. And it’s all so interchangeable and mix and match.
Why is diverse representation in fashion important to you?
Because we want to see women who look like us, our friends and our daughters.
What are three SYTL pieces you would recommend?
Cate shirt in raspberry, Amanda skirt in navy and the Shelly dress - I think the dress will be a huge winner this spring-summer. And, it looks great on everyone I've seen it on.
