Styling is a skill that appears to allude many in the U.K. In Britain, we have chosen to shop till we drop instead, the fashion industry’s answer to reaching fashionista’s nirvana, the place celebrities in magazines tell us they go in between rehab. The TV gives us our weekly dose of fashion shows which all talk of styling without actually delivering any concrete "how tos" and the constant use of "on trend" and "must haves" puts us once again firmly in that subliminal, inescapable shopaholic matrix.
The solution is the studio located at 5C Cross Street, Blaby next door to Movie Zone, where women have the opportunity to resolve their personal fashion frustrations and body hang-ups with experts, get concrete information and help in making the most of what they already have. Where else can you try completely styled looks, colours, accessories you have not tried or tend to shy away from.
Unlike a retail store Holly and Shirleys unique collection of recycled clothes is not for sale, as each piece has been individually handpicked and is priceless to them. However anyone can join their Stylista club after consultation. Stylista members are eligible to borrow complete styled looks for special events and occasions for a week at a time.
"Celebrities rarely buy clothes for an event or occasion, they borrow them from designers or more likely their stylist, the basis for our idea." said Holly
"So if you, are sick of being a slave to the fashion industry’s rhythm, are stuck in a time warp, have too many clothes and nothing to wear or are just completely lost when it comes to your look, say these two simple rules aloud,
CONFIDENCE ALWAYS EQUALS STYLE,
FASHION DOES NOT ALWAYS EQUAL STYLE and
STYLE IS UNIQUE, FASHION IS FOR SHEEP, then call us." said Shirley
