SARAH LAHBATI

ACTOR AND MODEL

1. How would you describe yourself in three words?

Soulful, giving and grateful.

2.How would you define your personal style?

Practical, timeless and fun.

3.Whose style inspires you the most?

The women and men who are themselves, those who have their own identity and don’t follow trends.

4.Favourite designers or fashion houses?

Right now: Matthieu Blazy’s Chanel, Phoebe Philo, Louise Trotter of Bottega and of course, all the Filipino designers I love to work with that you see on my socials.

5. What pieces in your wardrobe do you wear most often?

Trousers! As a busy mum, I don't like thinking too much about what to wear. I want to look good but also feel comfortable moving around. As well as jackets or blazers, since I’m oddly always cold (laughs).

6. Favourite places to shop—locally and abroad?

Locally, Carl Jan Cruz’s store and Power Plant Mall. Abroad, I love shopping in Le Marais when I'm in Paris, where all my favourite shops are.
