Style Leader: Sophia Neophitou-Apostolou, Editor-in-Chief at Harper's Bazaar UK and 10

As the Editor-in-Chief at not one but two top publications, Sophia Neophitou-Apostolou certainly has her hands full managing both Harper’s Bazaar UK and 10 Magazine -- but despite the long hours, you won’t catch this industry power player in practical shoes.  

Known for her sexy, fearless style, the 44-year-old curvaceous Neophitou-Apostolou proves that confidence is the key to pulling off even the most daring ensembles. An ardent fan of Azzedine Alaïa, the fashion editor and stylist often buys multiples of her favorite items and wears the designer’s dresses on planes and in the rain at her son’s soccer games. She is also a fierce advocate of heels. So much so, in fact, that she considers her 10 inch Alaïa shoes to be like her slippers: “There is an inbuilt platform, so they are practical. I wear them all the time.”

With an unmatched work ethic, rare creative talent and 10 inch heels, Neophitou-Aspostolou is a unstoppable force in the fashion industry – and it only takes one look at her portfolio to prove it.
