"Sprezzatura is not the same as effortless style, which is the worst lie ever propagated by women’s media. It is really the effortful pursuit of the appearance of effortlessness, a dedication to the end result. I think of my friend Maryam Keyhani, who is the most elegant woman I know, and I know that she has spent days on end researching fashion, learning about designers, studying art, shopping for clothes. And as a result of those days that have become years, decades, she can now get dressed in 10 minutes. That’s sprezzatura."
