Sultana’s style icon Cary Grant © Silver Screen Collection/Getty Images I’m involved with MICAS, a new contemporary art museum opening in Valletta in 2021, so I need to keep abreast of local culture. I also check the Times of Malta app to see what’s going on back home. My favourite apps are British Airways, as I’m always travelling the music app Tidal and Giphy, where you can check out GIFs of anything from cool closets to Joan Crawford. I adore my Andy loafers – I have over 20 pairs, in various shades. I’ve also been buying my shoes from Berluti nearby, in Mayfair, for 15 years. On a Sunday after lunch, I’ll often spend an hour or so looking through books in Hatchards – it’s my local bookshop, so I make an effort to buy from there rather than online.

I have never had a proper kitchen where you can cook, eat and hang out in the same space. The thing I’m eyeing next is a kitchen by Plain English. His Untitled portrait by Secundino Hernández © Secundino Hernández It’s a surreal portrait, in shades of blue and grey: I was immediately struck by it. All his work is incredibly strong – both the colour and the composition. The last thing I bought and loved was an Untitled portrait created this year by the Spanish artist Secundino Hernández, from the Victoria Miro gallery.
