Fashion Muse - Catherine Baba

Born in Australia but living in Paris for the past 15 years, freelance stylist Catherine Baba is no ordinary woman. Styling for fashion houses including Chanel, Balmain, Ungaro and Givenchy and magazines such as Vogue, Vanity Fair and Dazed & Confused, Baba is larger than life. 
Mixing styling from the 20s and 30s, with influences from the 70s, Baba has become a fashion standout on the streets of Paris. Always seen riding in outfits more fit for a night out on the town rather than on the back of a bike, Baba is somewhat of an enigma. Regularly seen on the dancefloors of Paris, Baba once famously borrowed a chandelier off a ceiling to complete her outfit, and DJing with it on her head for the whole night. 


A vintage Yves Saint Laurent obsessee, Baba has over 300 pieces in her collection. Rarely seen without a pair of sky high stilettos, Baba seems to have endless energy which is reflected in her bright, wild outfits.


Get Catherine's look with bright lips, safari style hats, big sunnies, barely their eyebrows, bright colours and bold silhouettes.
Taking bicycle chic to a whole new level!

Love the bright pink jacket
Great mix of colours
Great mix of kimonos with a turban and fur stole

Beautiful aqua tassel earrings add a pop of colour
to this look
Baba is barely recognisable with her big sunnies and fur wraps
It takes a brave woman to wear heels like that on a bike!
Even her bicycle bag looks stylish!
Love the beautiful yellow coat and
statement necklace
