Fashion Designer To Personal Stylist
My passion for design, fashion and style began at a very young age, sketching designs and making clothes for myself. This led to a degree in fashion design and a career designing for renowned brands including M&S, Zara and luxury label Sportmax.
My design career took me around the world, from New York and Paris to Delhi, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Istanbul. It gave me a unique insight into how culture, fashion and personal style differ around the world. It also gave me a first-hand understanding of how pressured a busy life can be. Style shouldn't be an added stress.
After many years as a fashion designer, I diversified into personal styling in London after helping a stressed friend who had no idea what to wear for her birthday. Seeing the difference the right clothes made to how she felt, and the positive reactions from those around her, was a lightbulb moment for me. In 2014, I completed my styling training with Aston & Hayes, initially balancing personal styling with my design career for four years while building my experience. Today, I share the image perception, styling knowledge and expertise I have gained throughout my career with my clients.
Client Benefits
My experience in both fashion design and personal styling means I have an expert understanding of how clothes are constructed. How fabrics drape on different body shapes and how a garment can be tailored for the perfect fit. I combine this technical knowledge with my styling experience to help you find clothes that work for your shape, colouring, taste and lifestyle.
I don't believe there is one approach that works for everyone. I work with your existing style and personal preferences, but I'm also not afraid to challenge them when needed. Sometimes the right result comes from refining what you already wear, and sometimes it means trying something completely different. I help you understand what works for you and why, while making sure your outfits and your image reflect the person you are today.
