Fashion and royalty have always gone hand in hand. From as far back as Queen Victoria the British Royals have influenced styles, trends and designer acclaim. Since Princess Diana this power gets ever more pronounced as she was, and now Princess Kate and Meghan Markle are, among the most photographed women in the world. Author Shinan Govani and designer Bojana Sentaler discuss the lasting impact the Royals have on fashion. 

Shinan Govani, once dubbed “the go-to Canadian” by Page Six, is both social chronicler and pop culture decoder. He’s reported from Art Basel, in Miami, fashion weeks in Milan and Paris and film festivals at Sundance, Cannes, and Toronto. The author of the novel Boldface Names, Govani’s work has also appeared in Vanity Fair, Town & Country and The Daily Beast.

Born in Belgrade, Bojana grew up in Toronto, where she earned a business degree from the Schulich School of Business. After a chance encounter with fashion guru Karl Lagerfeld during her world travels, Bojana began to explore her true passion for fashion and design.

Inspired by the diverse vibrancy and beauty of her journeys, Bojana created SENTALER, a brand showcasing feminine silhouettes in an array of vibrant colours, a brand now known for its signature ribbed sleeve details and hooded wrap coats.
