Suki Waterhouse: I was ‘allergic’ to heels and dresses
Suki Waterhouse was "allergic" to heels and dresses growing up.
The 24-year-old model hated wearing anything that wasn’t baggy when she was a young girl but enjoys being able to "experiment" with fashion now.
She said: "When I started modelling I remember a casting director telling me I better start dressing like a girl.
"I was allergic to heels or dresses or anything that wasn’t really baggy. I enjoy all the extremes of fashion now and experimenting for different moments."
And the blonde beauty is really inspired by 60s fashion and looks up to Sienna Miller as a style role model.
She added to Refinery29: "Well, I love ’60s influences like Brigitte Bardot but more modern icons would be women like Sienna Miller. Just always so chic.
"My favourite brands range from smaller ones like Rixo London – I love their dresses – to brands I utterly lust after like Gucci and Miu Miu. I admire Erdem and Christopher Kane for their consistently amazing collections I wish I could wear the whole time!"
Meanwhile, Suki previously admitted she loves "ugly fashion" and thinks people should dress "weirder".
She shared: "I’ve always liked the play on girly and sweet where you can also add in a sense of randomness. It was dorky in the 60s, and sexy but not overtly so.
"People are too ‘put together’ these days, there’s not enough ‘weird’ going on. Sometimes if I put an outfit on Instagram some people will comment going ‘Ooh the bag and dress doesn’t go’ – well maybe I didn’t care that they didn’t. I almost like the ‘ugly’ fashion. If you think you’re a cool girl then you’re probably not cool. You might look cool, but that doesn’t mean you are."
