"It's more interesting to have just a picture of a small detail - then you can dream all the rest around it.
Because when you see the whole thing, what is there to imagine?" -Dries Van Noten
Sylvana Ward Durrett
Director of Special Events, Vogue. New York
Sylvana Ward Durrett has been a veteran at Vogue for nearly 8 years,
starting her career at the most iconic magazine of all time as the
Assistant to the Editor-in-Chief, Anna Wintour. Her determination and
spunkiness helped her climb the ranks at American Vogue, moving into
the fashion department as the Accessories Editor and eventually
landing feet first in the role of Director of Special Events, a title
she currently maintains. She’s one girl with a full plate: her
responsibilities include producing over 30 events a year, including
the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Awards Dinner and the annual Costume
Institute Benefit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Her style is the
epitome of effortless chic – mastering the art of putting together
envy-defying outfits on a daily basis.
She has always been someone whose style we have been captivated by,
and when Vogue.com featured this long-term Voguette in their "Five
Days, Five Looks, One Girl" feature, her outfits and unique way of
putting herself together piqued our interest even further....enough to
get inside her closet full of bold patterns, bright colors, and a
selection of shoes that complimented every luxurious accessory she's
collected over time.
