May-Britt Mobach is founder and editor in chief of Amayzine.com


 

Your nickname?

‘Mobaca’, ‘Maytjelief’, something I really can't share and also very much ‘mááámá’.

Your fashion icon?

There are a thousand of them, but if I have to choose, I think Nina Garcia (chief fashion officer of Marie Claire US) is someone I want to be closest to in terms of taste and style.

First job?

Scooping ice creams at a pancake house in Goes.

Your favourite among shops?

Yes daaag, I can't choose anyway. Net-A-Porter, Skins, Omoda, Mayke...

What do you eat when calories are not a factor?

A thick, self-cut sandwich with butter and Nutella. Greased thickly.

Never have I ever...

Jumped off something for no reason with a rubber band around my legs.

Do you have a beauty secret?

Lubricate what you can lubricate. No smoking, no tanning and please don't mind wrinkles. They are not that ugly now and you have earned them all.

No one knows this about you?

Far too little. That I am sailor's daughter and have a slight karaoke addiction?

Which item from your closet do you wear the most?

My Gucci belt and Fendi bracelet go with everything.

Which label should we fall in love with?

Sacai, also the darling of Net-A-Porter's chief buyer. Talking about taste.

Ultimate moment of relaxation?

That sacred moment between when ‘they’ have fallen asleep and really waking up before I go to bed myself.

Which Sexy Friday do you want to try out?

The starfish looks like something to me.

If your bag could talk, what would she tell us?

That I always keep my passport with me obediently, grabbing for business cards seven times every day only to come to the conclusion that I -again- do not have them with me, that I never put it on the ground and that I say ‘pardon‘ when I am alone in the car and burp a little.

Fashion rule you live by?

Always add something.

A day without Chanel is a day without May-Britt. If she could, she would transform the terrace at The Standard in New York into her, and the other editors’, very own workspace. Our health editor would order the snacks, the clock would be somewhere around five and there would be a new record of viewers on Amayzine.com

If there was one outfit you were allowed to keep, which would it be?

My Rag & Bone jeans because they always have a nice and skinny fit the first day I wear them, then they get a little more baggy afterwards which makes me feel more slim. My ‘Je t'aime mama’ Moschino heels and something from Isabel Marant as a top. And last, but never least, a Chanel cross body bag.

What's the most dangerous part of your job?

That I set foot into too many stores for ‘work’ or to buy outfits ‘for other people’ and then suddenly, without even realising it, I buy ‘something’ for myself.
