Why We Love Her Style: We first fell for Tony’s incisive and lush pictorials set in her hometown of Cape Town, South Africa, where she takes on such American advertisements behemoths as Coca Cola and Adidas. But soon we realized that along with her “Wes Anderson–influenced” color palette and love of American sportswear, her personal style was just as beguiling.

Why We Love Her Style: Creating a balance between shocking neons and your everyday life in the city can seem a task for most, but the Nepalese native has an almost preternatural handle on eye-popping color. She wraps herself up in layers of brightly hued jewelry from her own eponymous line and then throws a cool moto jacket over it all—East meets West meets her enviable style.

Why We Love Her Style: Inviting us along to celebrate Diwali, the Indian festival of lights, this year in Queens, New York, the Indian supermodel had the Vogue.com crew practically lit up. What with this being her first year celebrating the OTT holiday in the States, she infused her new city cool with all of her Hindi traditions for a look that felt like one part homage, one part reinvention.

Why We Love Her Style: We can only imagine the reaction Parisians have when they notice the stunning red-haired beauty zooming down arrondissements, delivering the Le Tricycle vegan hot dogs she makes with her boyfriend, Daqui Gomis. It must be similar to the one we had when falling for the former model who can make customized dark-denim aprons look daringly cool: total awe, most likely.

Why We Love Their Style: Was it any wonder that these stunning Swedish twins were just tapped to front the cult-favorite footwear company of their native country? Hardly. With their hip-grazing dreads; pouty-lipped countenances; and sleek, minimalist style that’s rugged enough for their native wilderness, they’re quickly rewriting the script on Scandinavian style and beauty.
