STYLE ICON OF THE DAY; OLIVIA PALERMO



AS the villain of the glossy MTV reality show The City, she should have disappeared from sight once the cameras stopped rolling. Instead, Olivia Palermo has become an It girl , the darling of the fashion world – and whatever 'it' is, Olivia Palermo has it in abundance. At 25, she has turned a series of photo opportunities at New York parties and charity galas into a lucrative career; her moment in the light of popping flashbulbs has become a brand-building exercise par excellence. In a few short years, she has rocketed from doe-eyed Upper East Side ingenue to international fashion figurehead.

She was one of People magazine's Best Dressed for 2010, graced the covers of Russia's Tatler magazine in October and the November 19th edition of London's Evening Standard. She has also been photographed for German Elle, Japan Elle, and Crash magazines and is currently featured in the Fall/Winter 2010-2011 Mango catalog and Hogan campaign. In addition, Olivia received Spain's Conde Nast Top Glamour Award for "Fashion Muse of the Year." Palermo combines doe-eyed beauty, unremitting ambition and society contacts to devastating effect . She is known for her perfect and polished work attire while on duty as Accessories Editor for Elle , mixing high-end with high street, to create an edgy yet individual look.
