It's no secret that celebrities and socialites have had stylists at their disposal over the last few decades. I mean, did you actually believe Kendall Jenner stepped straight out the house wearing an outfit she styled herself? Of course not.
Stylists are there to for those who may need a little help in the "I-don't-know-what-to-wear" department, but can also be used to help rebrand a celebrity and entirely change their image to the public. So when we see Gigi Hadid's style change from biker chic to laid back Cali-girl in just over a day, then we know we are to praise the stylist who is working hard behind the scenes.
Stylists still to this day don't receive half the amount of recognition they deserve for the job they do. From styling red carpet events, to cover shoots, to global campaigns, there is more work done that we could possibly imagine. Here is a list of some stylists that I have come to recognise in the past year, due to their high profile celebrity clients.
LAW ROACH
Law Roach is a name you'll want to remember. His A-list celebrity clients include Celine Dion, Zendaya, Jessie J, Skai Jackson, Ariana Grande and Willow Shields. Last year he joined the panel of judges for the TV show “America’s Next Top Model” and was a recipient for the Style Distruptor award from Essence magazine.
Fueled by his love for fashion, Law continues to distinguish himself as a stylist and fashion guru. Whether dressing clients for red carpet events, campaigns or magazine shoots, Law remains unparalleled in the fashion industry.
JILL JACOBS
For years Jill Jacobs worked as the assistant to stylist Monica Rose, who has dressed the Kardashian and Jenner sisters until it all ended tragically last year. Now it appears Jacobs has taken full control of Jenner’s closet, specifically Kylie's, and we most definitely are not complaining.
Jacobs has been shown onKylie Jenner's app sharingthe inside scoop on what it's like to style the icon and her experience with the Jenner. To this day, she is still styling influences like Desi Perkins and Jasmine Saunders.
MEL OTTENBERG
As a leading stylist, Mel Ottenberg has left his mark on fashion, Most notably with his works with Rihanna, serving as the stylist for all of her appearances, album covers and music videos, including the Grammy Award-winning smash “We Found Love.” He is Rihanna’s wardrobe director for her current world tour.
His editorial work has appeared in Harper’s Bazaar, V, I-D, Purple, Dazed & Confused, The New York Times and Style Magazine.
MONICA ROSE
If you've only heard of one stylist, it's most probably Monica Rose. The stylist that was styling the Kardashian-Jenner clan for up to a decade recently ended her contract (however, some say fired eek). Rose has been known to set trends, such as the so called "lingerie over tshirt" that was first started with Kendall Jenner earlier this year.
MIMI CUTTRELL
The low profile stylist, Mimi Cuttrell, has gained major publicity in the coming months due to styling celebrities like, Gigi Hadid and Kara Gerber. Definitely a favourite stylist of mine at the moment!
