The Guest Edit: Kate Nehra
An Edit of 12, from some of the chicest in the room. Next up, we're diving into the Wishlist of Stylist Kate Nehra.
I met Kate during a showroom visit last September in New York, she was working in the Khaite showroom styling the models during fittings. She looked effortlessly chic in a very Olsen coded slip skirt, paired with a simple crewneck and flip flops. We tried on the SS25 Khaite hair and ear cuffs whilst Kate gave us her hair product recommendations, a roster of Moroccan Oil Soothing Lotion and shu uemura Essence Hair Serum (she also happens to have great hair). I left that showroom not only inspired by the clothes and accessories but also by Kate’s entirely authentic style.
I always feel like you can tell when an outfit is forced, when someone’s persona doesn’t match their outfit. It feels rigid, off. Needless to say Kate is the complete opposite of this. Cool girl authentic style with an even cooler attitude. There is a reason she styles for brands like Khaite and Jujuvera. This infectious chic attitude bleeds into her work and is part of the reason we are all so struck by these brands. So without further ado, here is her list of favourites:
I tend to be a scent loyalist. The entire Chanel Exclusifs collection is beautifully distinct, but Sycomore stands out to me. It’s not too overpowering for everyday and strikes the perfect balance, without leaning too feminine or masculine.
New York has been freezing, and shearling is a key piece in my winter wardrobe. This beautiful coat from Nour Hammour is an easy way to stay warm, whether dressed up or paired with denim.
All of The Row’s “Liisa” shoes are surprisingly comfortable, even after hours of wear. I love a kitten heel, and the distressed detail on this brown satin pair keeps them from feeling too precious.
I cannot recommend this product enough. It’s versatile, gentle, and effective. I often use it as a cleanser at night, and when my skin looks dull, I use it as a moisturizer.
5. Vintage Prada
I love a shift dress and this one is from one of my favorite Prada collections, F/W 1998. Another favorite of mine is the long grey version of the coat pictured above here.
This stole has become a versatile staple in my winter wardrobe and a piece I’ll rely on for years. It's the perfect size and weight — substantial enough for winter layering, yet light enough to serve as a transitional piece.
I rotate through many hair products, but Shu Uemura’s are the ones I always come back to. I use the overnight hair serum both day and night, whenever I feel like my hair is in need of moisture — and it works every time.
Anyone who appreciates 90s minimalism should add this book to their collection. It’s filled with beautiful archival images, alongside Sander’s own history. I have found myself returning to it often.
I have been wearing Wolford tights forever, and I truly believe the quality justifies the price. The look of their tights is incomparable to any other brand. Whether I’m layering a Mat Opaque 80 under denim on a cold day or pairing the Individual 10 style with a mini, Wolford is my wardrobe hero.
I have a pair of boys' jeans from Gap that I am often asked about. While they’re sadly discontinued, this pair has a similar silhouette—and the Indigo wash has quickly become my new favourite jean.
I would wear boots everyday if I could. In terms of current market offerings, I can say without bias that Khaite’s are the best. I love the new Andee boot, which feels refined yet modern.
I am prioritizing sustainable hydration in the new year and this water bottle is the motivation I need.

I would love to know who makes the black loafers on the top photo.
