1. Headband
“For years my father has worn an assortment of headbands: different colors, materials, prints. Some he cuts from the scarves he has collected, some from different fabrics that have been left behind in wardrobe. He’ll wrap pretty much anything around his head.”
2. Handcuff Bracelet
“That bracelet has been lost and found so many times, it’s a miracle he still has it,” she says of the accessory that has inspired knock-offs available all over the Internet. “It’s a piece that people now associate with him — I think of it like a beauty mark, like Marilyn Monroe’s mole.”
3. Skull Ring
Of the piece London goldsmiths David Courts and Bill Hackett gave Richards as a birthday gift in 1978, she says: “That ring is older than me. Growing up, my Dad would say, ‘Beauty is only skin deep.’ Such a powerful thought. I think the ring has always reminded me of that.”
4. Scarves
“I don’t think my dad leaves the house without one, and I’ve definitely adopted that habit from him,” says Alexandra, who buys a scarf whenever she travels to a new place. “It’s a really easy way to pull an outfit together.”
