There are scientific rules when it comes to style, says Trinny Woodall. But it’s important to know which resonate with you – and when to break them if they don’t serve – not just when it comes to fashion and beauty, but in all areas of our life.
Certainly that’s true of the advice she both offers and takes today. Because while she may have first gained a name for herself teaching women what not to wear, the longtime media personality has since built a brand which is all about rejecting outdated conventions and empowering women in the process.
“It’s never too late and I do think we should always be challenging ourselves,” she says of her attitude to life and what she hopes to inspire in others. “I think it’s incredibly important we don’t define ourselves by age because the parameters of age have changed so much. We should never lose visibility as women.
“I love women who live life to the full, whatever their age. I love people who challenge the norm and put things out there. And I respect women who take a risk.”
That’s the attitude she took when founding her runaway success beauty brand, Trinny London, in 2017. It started with an idea, and got its foundations at her kitchen table. But today, the long-time media personality has gone from being a one-woman operation to heading a business valued last year at over $352 million.
She runs her own social media outlets, dispensing advice, wisdom and tips to devoted followers who have branded themselves ‘the Trinny Tribe’ – all of which, she says, was learnt the hard way over her 59 years.
