CIRCLE OF LIFE

A celebrated stylist brings her love of vintage to a sustainable collaboration.

Clare Richardson recently experienced the closest thing a non-musician can get to being on tour. “We were in a different state every day,” she says of crisscrossing the country to celebrate the collaboration between Reluxe Fashion, her luxury resale platform, and Madewell. In cities from Austin to Washington, DC, Richardson brought her discerning eye—she has styled editorial shoots with Jennifer Aniston and Margot Robbie, along with this month's ELLE cover story with Daisy Edgar-Jones—to the public, counseling women on how to pair her vintage finds with the brand's denim styles. “It's my happy place,” she says of the store's dressing room. “I'm not very good at sitting still. I like to be styling.”
