Before our favorite celebrities hit the red carpet with their amazing looks or models appear in magazine editorials just remember, there is a fashion stylist behind them. What is a Fashion stylist? A fashion stylist, as the name suggests, works with fashion trends to create a distinct style for a particular individual. The individual can be anyone from a model or celebrity or anyone who wishes to create a distinctive image of himself or herself.
