Have a fashion dilemma? Ask our expert, Miss Chic!

Tamara Mellon, JIMMY CHOO PRESIDENT
"If you're afraid of a six-inch heel, go for platform shoes! They're very sexy and much easier to live with."
Consuelo Castiglioni, MARNI DESIGNER
"This season, I'm into 'indoor-outdoor.' Play with fabrics made for outdoor clothes, like a waterproof skirt."
Agyness Deyn, TOP MODEL
"The morning after a major party, wear a lot of makeup to hide the telltale signs of fatigue!"
Elle Macpherson, MODEL AND DESIGNER
"My secret? Being faithful to the same rocker style for the last 20 years. I wear my old jeans with biker boots. On top, a Little Joe by Gail Elliott T-shirt and a Lucien Pellat-Finet sweater. Underneath, I prefer my own lingerie; it makes me feel sexy."
Silvia Fendi, CREATIVE DIRECTOR
"My advice? Wrap yourself up in a fur blanket, have a range of T-shirts in every possible colour, carry a big croc Fendi bag on your arm and wear high heels."

Milla Jovovich, ACTRESS AND DESIGNER
"Opposites attract! If you wear something full below the waist, try something tight above the waist. And vice versa."
Eva Herzigova, MODEL
"I love wearing big jewels with casual men's clothes, like a white T-shirt. Or a big sweater and a pair of jeans."
Victoire de Castellane, DIOR JEWELLERY DESIGNER
"It's better to be radical than boring: wear opaque pantyhose or bare legs but not transparent hose, which is the same as wearing no hose at all. Wear high heels or flats, but avoid in-between shoes -- that look is hard to pull off."
Alber Elbaz, LANVIN DESIGNER
"Never hesitate to wear a short dress to a gala event where you expect to see only tuxedos and evening gowns."
Francisco Costa, CALVIN KLEIN CREATIVE DIRECTOR
"Focus on clothes that make you stand out and speak to the best part of your personality. Pare down your closet, but keep practical pieces."

Margherita Missoni, FASHION AMBASSADOR
"Make an evening dress your own. For example, I wear a big cardigan over mine, and I leave my hair down. You look more real that way."
Sienna Miller, ACTRESS AND DESIGNER
"I love mixing casual and chic. And, for an unexpected look, I mix new and vintage."
Narciso Rodriguez, DESIGNER
"A man's white shirt, whether slightly wrinkled or perfectly ironed, worn by a woman with style -- that always makes me do a double take."
Kate Moss, SUPERMODEL
"I like to wear sweaters made out of really soft material, such as cashmere, and
I adore wearing grey from head to toe."
Roberto Cavalli, DESIGNER
"Wear only one print at a time so that you don't look like you're wearing a disguise. Take a ferocious attitude toward the world: power is seductive."
