A design aficionado’s favourite things – and what she doesn’t like
A-Esque founder and creative director Amanda Rettig has the kind of exquisite taste most of us aspire to. Here are a few of her favourite things. From the autumn issue out on March 15.

My signature style ... Reflects my mood(s). I am a last-minute decision-maker: what I wear is about how I feel. My style is thrown-together and free-spirited. I will most often choose pants over dresses, flats over heels, muted hues over brights, tones over contrasts, shades over clashes, classics over trends.
My grab-and-go staple is ... A fob chain with rings on it, a pair of suede loafers, an old Celine wool coat, a faded pair of jeans, a Wolford scoop neck bodysuit and a white Khaite tee.
