Clothes Encounters: Four stylish women take us inside their wardrobes
"Eva Galambos, 33, owner/buyer for Parlour X"
What kind of wardrobe do you have?
"Mine is a whole room in my house dedicated to all my bits and pieces. It's a wardrobe and dressing room all in one and it's my sanctuary. It's a treasure chest and absolutely everything in it has a story to tell."
How do you think it reflects your personality?
"It's colourful, organised, feminine and fun."
What wardrobe staples will you always find in there?
"Bags, because they're my obsession and dresses because most are season-less and easy to throw on in a hurry and pack when travelling."
What do you plan to fill it with for next season?What are your top three must-haves?
"An hourglass Roland Mouret dress in green, a Hussein Chalayan sports jacket and a sexy Vivienne Westwood high-waisted skirt suit."
Are you quick at getting ready to go out or do you like to take your time?
"Considering I dress up pretty much everyday, I even do casual with an outfit, I am reasonably quick."
What have to worn to shreds?
"My favourite is my brand new Chanel chain bag that I just bought in London on a recent buying trip. My Mulberry Roxanne has been worn to death and is almost a different colour now, and my Marni silver-heeled pumps and my gold Sonia Rykiel ballet flats."
Do you have a system for organising your wardrobe?
"Yes, I colour code everything and I merchandise my wardrobe the same way that I merchandise Parlour X -I love to merchandise and rearrange!"
Biggest splurge:
"Well, imagine buying with a budget for a whole shop!"
Cheap thrill:
"The Gap for yoga and exercise basics, Biasa for beach style holiday basics, and Bonds for underwear and singlets."
Signature style:
"It's eclectic and polished. I'm into grooming and I'm not really very casual so I guess I always appear quite styled."
OUR December issue is fairytale themed, so tell us, mirror, mirror on the wall who's the fairest of them all?
"I don't actually want to emulate any one else's style but I certainly admire a few individuals who have their own distinct look that is consistent and suits them - Chloë Sevigny, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Sofia Coppola, Kate Moss, Helena Christensen."
