Does size matter in styling? are only thin people stylish or can be? Whoever said so, must be a fool, Because style has nothing to do with the size, that ways brands and designers would only produce XS and S and not M, L and XL. Also yes not every style suits every body type, hence we, people, need to understand and accept our body type and then shop/style accordingly. Be Smart and need not follow every trend and everyone, rather create your own style and be comfortable in your own skin.
People confuse designers with stylists in India? Whats your take?
I don’t think so but if at all this is the case then I would like to say that “Designers creates beautiful pieces” and “a stylist puts these beautiful together, from different labels/designers and makes another masterpiece”, with a totally different take on it, because different elements are required to create a story and that’s how they complete each other.
Perhaps, people do confuse stylists with ‘hair stylists’ in India.
Is make up an essential part of styling?
Yes and hair too, but make up always doesn’t mean “a cake face”.
Are you being paid for this interview lol…?
How I wish, LOL.
