Christine Centenera is Australia’s coolest fashion fixture. The über stylish brunette is the senior fashion editor of Vogue Australia, fashion director of recently launched Miss Vogue and a freelance stylist and fashion consultant, who adds Kanye West and Kusbi to her list of clients. Her cool factor even plays into her personal life - the former editor of Harper’s Bazaar Australia has been in a relationship with hip Australian designer Josh Goot for some time now, making for one of the most fashionable couples on the globe. But what really makes Centenera the ultimate in cool is her lack of interest in putting herself in the forefront of social media – albeit a recent Instagram account. The stylish part-Filipina beauty shies away from the media spectacles of fashion week, opting for a more subdued approach to the industry mayhem. Known for her intelligent, edgy and sexy sense of style, she is one of the few hidden gems in an industry led by the social media obsessed and fame hungry socialites.
A knack for sexy laced up boots and pencil skirts, Centenera has been accredited with Kim Kardashian’s famous fashion makeover after getting together with rapper and style icon Kanye West – evidenced by Kardashian’s style recent sensibilities. Never seen in flats and opting for dark colors and neutrals, Centenera’s style is as tasteful and fashion-forward as the woman behind them. Her favorite designers include Riccardo Tisci for Givenchy and up and coming Australian designer Dion Lee.
