35 Reasons Cressida Bonas Is the Next Fashion It Girl

Oct 31 2016 - 5:58am

While Cressida Bonas has been tied to Prince Harry [1], the 26-year-old model is so much more than her royal roots. Anyway, there's no girl in the world who needs a man to help her steal the spotlight [2], regardless of his title. Cressida has made that painstakingly clear, showing up to red carpets and sitting front row at Fashion Week next to Anna Wintour [3] — all in standout looks that turn heads.

But Cressida's signature style is a bit more free-spirited [4]. She rocks braids on the regular, muddies up her wellies at Glastonbury Festival [5], and opts for simple sneakers [6] at fancy events. Cressida's the type of lady you whisper, "Who's that girl?!" about when she walks by, and the fashion world's taking notice. Read on to see her most effortless outfits, the Mulberry campaign she fronted, and her interview with Miss Vogue, all of which confirm it's her time to shine.
