Stylists are often part of a creative team working in collaboration with a director, production coordinator, photographer, cinematographer, hair stylist, makeup artist, etc. to put together a particular look or theme for a specific production or project. A wardrobe stylist can also be referred to as a fashion stylist, clothing stylist or fashion editor.
The job description varies greatly depending on the assignment. Stylists in the editorial and celebrity fields work primarily with designer samples which are shown during fashion presentations and are lent out to members of the fashion press during the four to six months before retail sales begin.
High level stylists may also collaborate directly with designers to produce custom clothing for celebrity clients or editorials. This is very common with celebrity stylists whose clients attend awards shows and for fashion editors at top magazines. Stylists may also provide services such as personal shopping, restructuring a client's entire wardrobe, reorganizing a client's closet or other duties relating to the client's personal lifestyle.
A wardrobe stylist is distinct from a costume designer, the person who clothes fictional characters in film, television or theater. A wardrobe stylist is also distinct from an image consultant or a color consultant. A person can be a color consultant without knowing basic principles of line or style. An image consultant is an expert in both color and line and may work with business professionals or individuals, as opposed to celebrities in particular.
