fashion editors, illustrated.

Have you seen these {dead-on} illustrations that refinery 29 tapped Joana Avillez to do? Because they are fantastic. Included with the drawings are some really great little factlets about each editor... Anna Wintour wore unzipped Chanel skirts throughout both of her pregnancies and was a high school dropout. Grace Coddington was educated in a convent. When I lived in New York, I was lucky enough to catch a glimpse of some of these ladies at FNO (Anna), the ACE Awards (Kim - we sat at the same table!) & Kate (always downtown on the street - I swear, her aura just screams "badass"). They are all truly tastemakers, have their own personal style & are a huge inspiration to me.
