Style icon Nicole Richie
Looking back on Cheryl Cole’s style, she has made quite a transition, ditching tracksuits and crop tops in favour of shift dresses and sky high heels – as directed by Victoria Adcock, celebrity stylist and regular contributor for Numero magazine. Cheryl is a shining example of how styling can re-invent a celebrity and portray an image that the public will positively react to. This change of image has resulted in some major career breakthroughs, and it has certainly caused her to be taken seriously within the fashion industry. With a British Vogue cover and an endorsement deal with L’oreal under her belt she seems unstoppable!
Lady Gaga can be remembered for her dramatic make-up and leotards at the beginning of her career, but she has recently transformed into this elusive figure that continuously shocks her audience through fashion. The video for her new song Telephone sees Gaga as a conniving murderess and presents a series of outrageous outfits. Much like her icons David Bowie and Madonna, she constantly reinvents herself and enthrals audiences with her theatrical performances. With some valuable styling from Nicola Formichetti, the creative director of Dazed and Confused magazine, Gaga has managed to enhance her career significantly. Her music is catchy and she is an undeniably talented singer and musician, but would she have achieved her icon status without a brilliant stylist behind her?
When Nicole Richie started her career on reality show The Simple Life, she appeared to be slightly overweight and very misguided in her fashion choices. After the show she enlisted the help of celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe and stepped back into the spotlight, carrying a lot less weight, but oozing with style.
She is now considered a style icon and owns her own jewellery line, House of Harlow. Nicole was brought back into the spotlight, and her new found sense of style has given her a purpose in the celebrity world. Most socialites seem to be famous through association and Nicole is no exception, but yet she is still part of the A-list. The decision to hire a stylist has been integral to Nicole’s success and has essentially provided her with a career as she became accepted in fashion circles.
Our society constantly judges celebrities on their appearance, so it is no surprise that most celebrities turn to stylists to boost their public appeal. We are now being forced to recognise how influential stylists can be, and how they are responsible for a lot more than handing clothes to our idols. There’s no denying that they have a profound impact on the success of a celebrity’s career and have some power over how they are perceived by the public.
Here are some celebrities that could do with employing a personal stylist! (pictures of badly dressed celebs).
