Emma Watson Defines British Style

While in NYC to co-host the London show Rooms closing party at Pulino’s, Emma Watson caught up with WWD about British style.

The 19-year-old actress shared, “It’s so funny because now that I’m in America, I’m more able to define it. Before I didn’t have an awareness of another style. I think [British style] has to do with the weather. We have terrible weather. It’s very gray and drizzly so we need things to cheer us up. And I think that leads to a lot of creativity and color, and I think that’s why our designers are so innovative.

Emma continued, “Because at home we’re kind of up against the elements in a sense. And we need cheering up. I think we do very well with kind of an eclectic mix. We have great vintage and we love to mix and match: high street and high fashion, vintage…and I think that really defines it as well.”

WHAT DO YOU THINK of British style? Do you think it differs from American style?
