Steph Shep Takes Us Behind the Scenes of Her Gold Gala Red Carpet Prep

Shepherd is known for her minimalist approach to fashion that truly embodies the concept of quiet luxury. "I keep a simple color palette: whites, blacks, neutrals, denim," she says. "I tend to choose comfort above all else."

A noted sustainable-fashion advocate, she goes for timeless staples over trendier finds. "I like investing in staple pieces that I will have in my closet for years," she reveals. "I live for a uniform; if there is a silhouette I love, I stick with it."
