Hello all! I'm new on here!
I'm planning to move out to LA in the next few months, and was wondering if anyone had any tips for me. I'm hoping to get a job as a wardrobe stylist, but I don't have any contacts in LA or even NYC.
Does anyone have any advice for where to start? Any contacts? Good places to go to be able to get my name out there?
Any information would be appreciated!
Thanks!

lots of traffic and yellow convertibles!!! Not sure about wardrobe stylist, however I am a handbag guy, there is a place I used to work at in Bev Hills called Fashionphile. Email ben@fashionphile.com and see if they need someone? This might be a stepping stone in the right direction? You'll be missed here in NYC

Hi Abby my name is Theo a former stylist turned fashion designer!...Great move LA is a great place too be yet keep in mind that this field is saturated with Stylist... so whats going to set you apart? learn the industry? fabrics designers, by store 1st than showroom. Get too know sales staff at different boutiques if they like you they will help if it boost there sales awareness as well. Join online groups and lend your services as an assistant to help build contacts and creditials....know that this is a real journey of self awarness many will talk yet few will help at times prepare yourself for the time of your life and stay in constact I would love too here about the progress...
ciao
