STYLIST'S WE'RE LOVING

CASSIUS CLAY






TY HUNTER








IBN JASPER




MARIEL HAENN





ANDREA LIEBERMAN




It was just another day of scouring the racks at Barneys for.... Cassius Clay, when someone tapped him on the shoulder and complimented him for the way he was dressed. The man was Kanye West, and after a short conversation and an exchange of e-mail addresses, an unlikely relationship developed between the rapper and the cerebral Art History major. Within weeks, the self-described "babe of the woods" of southern New Hampshire who grew up and went to school near Boston had taken a leave of absence from his alma mater to become the rapper's personal stylist and creative consultant.

Anyone who watched Beyonce’s ‘Run the World" was probably salivating over the various couture looks in the video.  The man responsible for these amazing looks is Ty Hunter.  He has really transformed Beyonce's conventional look to amazing edgy couture.  We have to give this man props. 

Ibn Jasper is a name you may have heard or a face you may have seen. Ibn Jasper is one of those unique individuals that manages to always stay on top of things at his own pace. Most known for his relationship with Kanye West, many people credit Ibn as one of the most talented barbers in the game. More than that however, Ibn definitely has his own approach to fashion and day to day activities. 

Mariel Haenn is the woman responsible for Rihanna's amazing transformation. Her styling efforts are definitely responsible for putting Rihanna on the map as a "fashionista".  Her edgy almost dark approach to styling is definitely what makes her distinct from other stylists. 

Andrea Lieberman's clients consists of Jennifer Lopez and my fashion icon Gwen Stefani.  There is "No Doubt" as to the level of talent that this woman posseses.  You just have to look at a her clientele and be convinced of her prowess.
