Welcome to our latest installment on Fashion influencers and trend-setters.  We started with the Bloggers and now we’re moving onto the Young Starlets who have already made it big, and who we think are going to get even bigger in 2016.  Our next post in the series (“Taste-Makers: The Business Women”) will appear on 4th of March 2016.

So who are the young stars who are setting the pace when it comes to Fashion?  The ones who despite their tender years have already established their very own style?  Here are the names to keep an eye out for in 2016…

Serayah McNeill

Step forward Serayah McNeill aka singer Tiana Brown from the massive US television hit show, Empire.  Singer, dancer, former basketball player and member of Taylor Swift’s girl gang, Serayah certainly knows how to make people stop and stare.  Always rocking a bold and fresh look, we see her star rising higher and higher in 2016.

Our top pick for Serayah: Berry Mini Wristlet in Black Patent

Luping Wang

If you haven’t heard of Luping Wang already, you soon will.  The Chinese model, who was discovered in her hometown mall, has already appeared in the Chanel, Stella McCartney and Chloe fashion week shows, and has also worked with Alexander McQueen, Dolce & Gabbana, Dior, and Hermes. You may also have spotted her on the front covers of Elle China and Grazia China.  We love her cool sophistication and eye for style.

Our top pick for Luping : Mini Karolina in Sky Blue and Tanned Vegetable Leather

Maisie Williams

You may know her better as Arya Stark in the HBO television series Game of Thrones.  The multi-award-winning English actress has also recently become a star of Doctor Who.  Not just a style queen who always strikes a vibrant and different look, she’s also a big lover of animals and cares deeply about upholding their rights, something that we at Anya Sushko care about greatly, too.

Olympia Campbell

You could say that Olympia is part of Modelling royalty.  The UK star’s older sister Edie is a renowned model and their mother is former Vogue fashion editor, Sophie Hicks.   Burberry, Lanvin and Fendi have all engaged her services, and she’s also worked with the fabulous Karl Lagerfeld.  We love this natural and stylish beauty’s blog and what she has to say about women being confident in their sexuality.  Girl power!

Saiyami Kher

Popular Kingfisher model turned Bollywood actress, we predict that we’re all going to be hearing a lot more about Saiyami this year.  Daughter of former Miss India, Uttara Kher, glamorous Saiyami always looks hip, sassy and beautiful and definitely knows how to dress.
