The Party Piece* “I adore [The Maha dress](https://www.delavali.com/products/maha-maxi-dress-in-cream-jersey?_pos=3&_sid=3dcb1d06c&_ss=r) from our Spring Summer collection. It's elegant yet daring with the open back, and the beads add this high-summer resort energy which I love.” #### *2. The Cover-Up* “I’m obsessed with everything from Ducie – she makes such great coats. I have been wearing [the Maeve](https://ducie.co.uk/products/maeve-shearling-jacket-butter-cream?variant=55255623958904) in shearling all winter, and for spring I'm in love with the [Bernadette leather peplum jacket](https://ducie.co.uk/products/bernadette-leather-jacket-cherry-brown-with-distressed-brown). It's so flattering.” #### *3. The Shoe* “I love a ballet flat like a simple Repetto or my [Alaïa](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=24448&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.net-a-porter.com%2Fen-gb%2Fshop%2Fproduct%2Falaia%2Fshoes%2Fballet-flats%2Fpatent-leather-trimmed-mesh-ballet-flats%2F25185454457048274) net ones. When I'm in Ibiza, I live in these [Isabel Marant sandals](https://prf.hn/click/camref:1011l4Jyq/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theoutnet.com%2Fen-gb%2Fshop%2Fproduct%2Fisabel-marant%2Fsandals%2Fflat-sandals%2Fbijoux-embellished-leather-sandals%2F46376663162924077).” #### *4. The Dress* “I haven't stopped wearing our [ Hela dress](https://www.delavali.com/products/hela-midi-dress-in-cream-spandex-jersey) in cream. It's so versatile – the perfect piece to transition from day to night.” #### *5. The Bag* “The [Peggy clutch](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=35663&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mytheresa.com%2Feuro%2Fes%2Fmujer%2Fthe-row-clutch-peggy-de-piel-marron-p01114995) from The Row is my current day-to-night bag.

I love my [ green amethyst pendant](https://amyrusselltaylor.com/collections/necklaces/products/green-amethyst-amulet-stability-serenity?variant=40478981619847) – it keeps me calm and grounded.” #### *7. The Denim* “I feel like denim is a lifelong quest – I'm always searching for the perfect fit. I’m almost 6’ tall so I find it really hard to find long-enough jeans. At the moment, I have my eyes on this [Saint Laurent pair](https://www.ysl.com/en-gb/pr/yves-flared-jeans-in-midi-blue-denim-814149552.html), though nothing beats a perfect pair of vintage [Levi's](https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=etT1jgERWYw&mid=53153&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.levi.com%2FGB%2Fen_GB%2Fclothing%2Fwomen%2Fjeans%2Fc%2Flevi_clothing_women_jeans) with a 36-inch leg seam.” #### *8. The Sunglasses* “I really like a brand called [Thistles](https://thistles.nyc/products/the-al-black-black) – especially its AL style, I prefer sunglasses that don't have big logos on them, and I think Thistles has a mix of really cool yet wearable shapes.” #### *9.

It has plenty of vitamin A, hyaluronic acid, glycerin and vitamin E.” #### *13. The Scent* “My friend just sent me this incredible new scent he made. The brand is called[ Aurora Fragrance](https://aurorafragrance.co.uk/products/ombre-fumee) and the fragrance is Ombre Fumée. It's so fresh and at the same time musky. I have so many people asking after it when I wear it.” #### *14. The Podcast* “[Fashion Neurosis by Bella Freud](https://bellafreud.com/pages/fashion-neurosis) is so interesting – and very relaxing and soothing to listen to.” #### *15. The Shopping* “I live just off Portobello Road, so I’m incredibly lucky to be surrounded by some of the most inspiring vintage stores, like [One of a Kind](https://www.instagram.com/oneofakind.archive/) and [Lovers Lane](https://www.instagram.com/loverslanelondon/). My favourite ritual, though, is heading down to the vintage market on Friday mornings to find unique treasures.” #### *16. The Book* “[*Widow Basquiat*](https://amzn.to/4vHpG7D) is by Jean-Michel Basquiat’s long-term girlfriend and muse, Suzanne Mallouk.

The Wish-List Hotel* **“**I’ve been dreaming of [ Le Sirenuse in Positano](https://sirenuse.it/en). It looks unbelievably beautiful. My muse Vali Myers, who I named the brand after, lived in the hills above Positano. You can still visit the little chapel tucked away in the forest where she lived, which feels so magical and personal. I’d love to see it one day.” #### *20. The Lunch Spot* “[La Famiglia](https://lafamiglia.co.uk/) in Chelsea – I have been going there for years. I find it so cosy, and the food is delicious.” *Follow* [@JANASASCHA](https://www.instagram.com/janasascha/#) *& Visit* [DELAVALI.COM](https://www.delavali.com/) [ ![@JanaSascha; @SirenuseMare](https://media.sheerluxe.com/nh6DedxxFVoyV8MS3r_X02ajVn8=/800x0/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2026%2F04%2Fsl-220426-favourite-things-de-la-vali-founder-4-v2.jpg) ](https://www.instagram.com/janasascha/) @JanaSascha; @SirenuseMare *more from* Fashion [View All Fashion](/fashion) ![Join Sapna & Lu At A Special Festive Event](https://media.sheerluxe.com/k1MedfHojE7Tk3g2lbtVu0ZpBj4=/200x267/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F12%2Fsl-site-assets-011225-thumb-hero-boodles-2.jpg) [Shopping](/fashion/shopping) / 01 December 2025 [## Join Sapna & Lu At A Special Festive Event ](/fashion/shopping/join-sapna-lu-at-a-special-festive-event) ![18 Mega High-Street Heroes](https://media.sheerluxe.com/BAqj-kh1Mzg_QpTfLVH-K66WrEY=/200x267/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F12%2Fsl-site-assets-011225-thumb-x-mega-party-high-st-heroes.jpg) [High Street](/fashion/high-street) / 01 December 2025 [## 18 Mega High-Street Heroes ](/fashion/high-street/18-mega-high-street-heroes) ![3 Cool Ways To Style These Cult Leggings](https://media.sheerluxe.com/JBW6FngGUGQIWvzzuQf1itNckag=/200x267/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F12%2Fsl-site-assets-011225-thumb-hero-lulu-1.jpg) [How To Wear](/fashion/how-to-wear) / 01 December 2025 [## 3 Cool Ways To Style These Cult Leggings ](/fashion/how-to-wear/3-cool-ways-to-style-these-cult-leggings) ![The Round Up: Chunky Knits](https://media.sheerluxe.com/PHEE4lr2SC1PvG3lJAg1GRrSD9U=/200x267/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F12%2Fsl-site-assets-011225-thumb-chunky-roll-necks.jpg) [Shopping](/fashion/shopping) / 01 December 2025 [## The Round Up: Chunky Knits ](/fashion/shopping/best-chunky-roll-necks) ![3 Cool, Off-Duty Looks At FLANNELS](https://media.sheerluxe.com/ldcPqIZeY07mdMYcPdUQdwzlHUA=/200x267/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F11%2Fsl-site-assets-271125-thumb-com-flannels-1.jpg) [Shopping](/fashion/shopping) / 27 November 2025 [## 3 Cool, Off-Duty Looks At FLANNELS ](/fashion/shopping/3-cool-off-duty-looks-at-flannels) ![The Black Friday Sale You Won’t Want To Miss](https://media.sheerluxe.com/B64hRL0vwdr21QTgAplyHVNBc0Q=/200x267/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F11%2Fsl-site-assets-271125-thumb-mango-2.jpg) [High Street](/fashion/high-street) / 27 November 2025 [## The Black Friday Sale You Won’t Want To Miss ](/fashion/high-street/the-black-friday-sale-you-wont-want-to-miss) ![A Night With SheerLuxe & The White Company](https://media.sheerluxe.com/WJ7gnLw0VTyUWOYPZpLo29_JYwM=/200x267/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F11%2Fsl-portrait-271125-the-white-company-dinner.jpg) [Fashion](/gold/fashion)/ 27 November 2025 [## A Night With SheerLuxe & The White Company ](/fashion/shoots/a-night-with-sheerluxe-the-white-company) ![25 ASOS Pieces To Snap Up This Black Friday](https://media.sheerluxe.com/2uU48Q2KHTQeGaPBt6sW2G_oORY=/200x267/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F11%2Fsl-site-assets-261125-thumb-asos-black-friday-2_0.jpg) [High Street](/fashion/high-street) / 26 November 2025 [## 25 ASOS Pieces To Snap Up This Black Friday ](/fashion/high-street/25-asos-pieces-to-snap-up-this-black-friday) ![One Piece, Three Ways](https://media.sheerluxe.com/iyDJfeI662w40AtJPEhj2AetE4Q=/200x267/smart/https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Fsites%2Fsheerluxe%2Ffiles%2Farticles%2F2025%2F11%2Fsl-gold-171125-site-assets-one-piece-hero-thumb.jpg) [Fashion](/gold/fashion)/ 17 November 2025 [## One Piece, Three Ways ](/fashion/shopping/one-piece-three-ways) Share This Story [Facebook ](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?display=popup&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com&u=https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Ffashion%2Finterviews%2Fa-fashion-brand-founder-shares-her-favourite-things&t=A+Fashion+Brand+Founder+Shares+Her+Favourite+Things) [ Pinterest ](https://www.pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsw18.sheerluxe.com%2Ffashion%2Finterviews%2Fa-fashion-brand-founder-shares-her-favourite-things&description=A+Fashion+Brand+Founder+Shares+Her+Favourite+Things&media=) [ E-mail ]() DISCLAIMER: We endeavour to always credit the correct original source of every image we use.
