Lisa Armstrong is the Telegraph’s Head of Fashion and a firm believer that style is best served with a sharp eye, a sharper opinion and shoes you can actually walk in. She has spent decades decoding trends, deflating hype and championing clothes that earn their place in a wardrobe rather than a fleeting moment. Previously at Vogue, The Times and The Independent, she brings authority without reverence and experience without nostalgia.
Known for her dry wit and plain-spoken intelligence, Armstrong treats fashion as something to be worn, tested and judged in real time, often while trekking across the world’s cities. She writes about luxury and the high street with equal curiosity, interrogating craftsmanship, value and modern femininity. She has a weakness for excellent tailoring, quiet confidence and anything that makes women feel more themselves, not dressed up as someone else. A follower of British brands she has a particular curiosity about Burberry, having witnessed the first seeds of its rebirth in the 90s.
