I’ve been lucky enough to have turned my love of fashion into a career, working with some of the most prestigious global fashion brands for over 18 years across Sydney, London, New Zealand & Dubai.
I worked as a fashion designer for most of my career, then up-skilled to become a professional stylist because I was missing connecting and interacting with the people I’m most passionate about dressing – YOU!
Why I Wanted To Become A Personal Stylist
I was aware that there was a disproportionate relationship between how much customers were buying compared to how much enjoyment they were getting.
I identified the huge gap between the clothing designer and clothing consumer and realised I’m the missing piece of the puzzle who could share my fashion insight to ensure customers were better equipped when making buying decisions.
As a personal stylist, I could turn mindless consumerism in to mindful consumerism
I knew that becoming an image consultant would be a more authentic use of my skill set that could transform consumer experience in to a more positive and fulfilling one.
My Sustainable Fashion Ethos
I have a sustainable fashion ethos and believe in mixing hi-low price points to create an individual look comprised of timeless, versatile and flattering pieces that I call ‘contemporary classics’.
What really inspires me are ‘street shots’, to see how real people build outfits to satisfy the challenges of everyday life.
