Daphne Guinness has lived many lives. A member of the brewing dynasty, Guinness spent her childhood between London, Dublin, and the Spanish mountains, where Salvador Dalí was her neighbor. She ascended in the world of high fashion, becoming a muse for Alexander McQueen and Isabella Blow, before going on to design her own clothing and jewelry. There’s nothing Guinness can’t do—she co-produced Cashback, an Oscar-nominated film; starred in a series of art movies; and, per David Bowie’s suggestion, launched a pop-music career. Guinness is always jetting to her next project. Here, she details her travel routine.
