The Founder of Zara Has a Super-Chic Daughter
You've probably heard about Amancio Ortega, the founder of Zara who is the second richest man in the world (surpassed only by Bill Gates). But how much do you know about his daughter, Marta Ortega Perez? As it turns out, the 32-year-old has insanely chic personal style—and we rounded up some amazing outfits to prove it. Whether she's dressed up or down, she seems partial to feminine pieces, including an embellished dress from last summer's Zara collection and a curve-hugging white gown.
We wouldn't blame you if you aren't familiar with her, as she keeps a relatively low profile. What we do know about her is she's a competitive horseback rider who specializes in showjumping. Plus, Forbes reports that she is likely being groomed to take over the company after her father, so don't be surprised if you see lots more of her in the future.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 14 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Kate and Meghan stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible.
