My Favorite Things

Lucinda Chambers began her career in the 1970s selling handmade jewelry on Portobello Road. In 2018, following nearly four decades at British Vogue, the Notting Hill-born stylist and designer again struck out on her own with the launch of the clothing line Colville, followed by the digital shopping platform Collagerie. This month, the site will make its first foray into art with a collection of limited-edition prints, on view at London’s 8 Holland Street gallery until April 8. Here, Chambers shares more of her favorite discoveries for the home, wardrobe, and beyond

The Best of Me

“After his first book came out, my family and I became rather obsessive about David Sedaris. My heart leaps when he does something new. He is brilliant, funny, observant, and tells it how it is—from his perspective—which is wonderful, as he notices so much and makes the ordinary extraordinary. ”
