Before Hiring a Personal Stylist Check Some Questions

What Part of Being a Personal Stylist Do You Prefer the Most? And the Least?
I love this job because it’s creative, every day is different, and it allows me to chose my own schedule. The worst part is not having a reoccurring paycheck! I don’t have any benefits from an employer, no paid time off, and no job security. If I’m not working, I’m not making money, and I have no idea if or when my next job will be.

Do You Ever Have Nothing to Wear?
Yes, just like everyone else I get tired of my clothes and want something new to wear!

What Are the Investment Pieces Everyone Should Own?
If you can afford to invest in designer handbags and shoes, those pieces hold their value for a long time, you can often resell them if you get tired of wearing them and want a change. You will never get the amount you paid for the piece, but you will get more than a non designer item. It’s like a car, once it leave the lot the value goes down, but it has value!

Having a Personal Stylist Sound like an Exclusive Experience Only for Vips, but How Would You Describe Your Clients?
It is often considered a luxury service, but there are plenty of stylists that are new to the industry and their rates are not exorbitant. Most of my clients are high net worth individuals who do not have the time to shop and worry about their clothing, so they hire me. My clients want to save time, be less stressed, and look great, and they consider it a worthy expense.

How Do You Help Your Clients Release Their True Style?
It is not a one time wonder, we figure out their style over time. Plus, we as people are constantly changing, and so are our clothes. I work on a weekly, monthly and/or seasonally basis with all my clients, depending on their needs. We discuss what they need (work clothes, a vacation, a special event, etc), we try on different outfits, and we plan for any future needs.

What Is Your Favourite High Street Brand?
It’s always changing, but right now I love The Row, Saint Laurent, Prada, Bottega Veneta, Valentino, Dior

What Are the Trends for This Season?
Cropped pants, cashmere coats, floral dresses, monochromatic looks.

What a personal stylist does?
It depends on what the client needs, but everything from finding your personal style, the best clothes for your body and lifestyle, wearing the latest trends, putting looks together, shopping, planning for special events. They can also help get rid of clothes not being worn or out of style, and organize closets to they are more useful.

What skills do you need to be a personal stylist?
Fashion and trend insight, an amazing sense of style, ability to dress people to make them look and feel great, the ability to listen to what your client wants and needs, organization.
