Michelle Obama has embraced fashion as a powerful form of communication over the past eight years. She has shown elegance and class and has not been shy to experiment with her looks either. Her fashion stylist/advisor has played such an important role for her over the years and it has been a joy to see all her looks. I love how you have talked about the First Lady Michelle Obama and I think everyone should be very thankful for the work that she has done during President Obamas time. Admire all her best fashion moments because they are completely worth it. http://www.posherry.com/blog/first-lady-michelle-obama-fashion-moments/

If I am interested in doing stylist loans. I currently have an optical business and would like to loan eyewear to stylists for shoots, red carpets events, premiers, etc. Where would I start?

A stylist helped me with my very first photo-shoot many designers have no problem with having their items borrowed just make sure is well photographed or that you photograph their items at least once by itself so they can use the image on their website. try Not just a label.

I glad I found this site. So i have been reading up on “pull letters” and my only difficulty I am having is exactly what it is to write in these pull letters. I myself am a freelance fashion stylist. I’m looking to pull from new upcoming designers and possibly some boutiques.

Hi Jessica,
Freelance stylists can find work without a agency representing them. But they have to hustle and seek out their own work and project.Hope that answers your question.

I am also wondering about April’s question. I am also wondering if freelance stylists need to be represented by an agency in order to find styling work.

Hi Amanda,

Don’t be afraid to directly contact show rooms with your request to pull.
If you are working on commissioned work, such as an editorial, request a pull letter from the photographer, you can also ask the magazine if they have any show rooms that they recommend/have a relationship with.

For smaller or submission projects try contacting smaller designers that are just starting out as well. Contact small boutiques that may be interested in lending clothes for an editorial credit, or images from the photographer to use on social media.
Also consider assisting experienced Stylists, you may find networking opportunities that way.

Best of Luck!
