And no, we’re not talking about her sunglasses.
Sure it’s no McDonalds Airtex, but Anna Wintour wears a uniform. Whether she’s watching the tennis, attending a gala or over lording the fashion industry, she sticks to a time-honoured outfit formula. Usually, it consists of mules in summer, boots in winter, a printed dress, large, angular sunglasses… and a lilac-stoned necklace. After falling deep into a Pinterest hole we’ve come to realise that much like the dark shades she never takes off, she also never removes this particularly memorable necklace. Not for work, not for play and certainly not for a meeting with HRH Queen Elizabeth II.

Reportedly, Wintour found her favourite necklace at British jewellers, S.J. Phillips Ltd. It’s been estimated to cost $20,000 and to be made from Georgian crystals. The unfalteringly stylish Wintour has rarely taken her violet string of crystals off since December. But, before that, she’s been layering it up with similar antique collet necklaces for the best part of the last decade.
