From Netaporter ‘Supermodel-turned-entrepreneur and fashion mogul ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY’s multi-hyphenate status has never felt more deserved. Here, she talks to net-a-porter bout her covetable collaboration with Wardrobe.NYC, forging her own path, family life, and why she no longer feels the need to prove herself.’
‘It was a no-brainer that she would collaborate with Wardrobe.NYC, co-designing a precise edit of exclusively beige and black-cinched coats and sculpted skirts, and a pair of legging-inspired pants that she describes as the piece that every woman needs – “they are the most flattering stretch pants that you could fly in, or wear on days when you don’t feel so great but want to look chic.”
‘The first collection is focused on a quick-fix formula of bodysuits tailoring, designed to be worn together when you’re at a loss for what to wear. The question she kept asking herself is: “What are these pieces that I want to have in my wardrobe every day, that can go from the school run into all of these different aspects of my life?”
“Success is so easy when something works out quickly. It’s GREAT, fantastic! But when you’ve gone through sort of ADVERSITY, and you’ve had the rug pulled from under your feet – professionally and PERSONALLY – that’s when you go to the real depths of yourself”

“In the moment, it feels horrendous. But as time goes by, you get to have more perspective, you get to have understood a side of yourself that is resilient.”
“I’m MINDFUL of what I expose because it’s my children’s CHOICE if they want a public life or not, and so I’m going to do everything I can to PROTECT them”
“Oh, we’ve had bolognese splattered on EXPENSIVE artworks… I’m a big believer that everything can be CLEANED. You’ve got to live it – it’s like, as a woman, as you get older, your IMPERFECTIONS add character”
“As I’ve gotten older, I feel less need to prove myself to people,” she tells me over an iced coffee. “I feel pretty good that I know who I am. A couple of years ago, I was in a very different headspace – and we all have periods where we’re not feeling good, but you need those moments to appreciate when things are better.”
