Personal Shopper, the French drama and supernatural flick directed by Olivier Assayas, opens in cinemas here today. While Stewart plays a personal shopper living in Paris immersed in the city’s fashion underworld, the American actress also has commendable style chops in real life. Below, we detail five reasons why she is an undeniable fashion force, and how you can achieve her look.

#1: Her buzz cut

The actress most recently set the fashion world ablaze when she debuted this severe buzz cut. While it’s a hard style to pull off, Stewart’s delicate features and indifferent persona pairs perfectly well with the edgy new do.

#2: She’s a Lagerfeld muse

Stewart has been a long-time favourite of Chanel’s Karl Lagerfeld, starring in several campaigns for the French luxury fashion house, the latest being the new campaign for the Chanel Gabrielle bag which will drop on 3rd April.

#3: Sneakers on the red carpet

Often eschewing style for comfort, Stewart has a history of wearing sneakers on the red carpet, sometimes even pairing them with glamorous evening gowns – and with her trademark nonchalant attitude, she just about nails it.

#5: Her androgynous look

No one can pull of the cool, androgynous vibe quite like Stewart, who has made it her signature look. Whether posing in front of the camera or on off-duty mode, the actress has always abided by her laid-back personality, and makes her outfits both a little feminine and masculine.

#5: She takes risks

Stewart also often takes risks on the red carpet, like with this Zuhair Murad nude gown which she famously wore to the LA premiere of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2. The look divided fashion critics – it veered dangerously towards looking like lingerie – but the actress managed to subdue it with her insouciant attitude.
