AUTHOR

I'm Danielle Griffiths the author of Fashion Stylist's Handbook.  

Whilst working as a stylist I encountered one too many assistants who didn't know enough about the industry. Not through any fault of their own, rather due to a lack of accessible information. With that in mind I set about creating the Fashion Stylist's Handbook - explaining how the fashion styling system works & to give young stylists a helping hand.

FREELANCE FASHION STYLIST

I started working as a London based fashion stylist in 2001. My editorial work has appeared in the country's leading fashion magazines and newspapers. I have styled for major advertising and music clients, while working alongside some of the world's best photographers.

VISITING LECTURER & business developer

Since early 2018 I have been a Visiting Lecturer at Condé Nast College Of Fashion & Design, teaching fashion styling.

As a Creative Consultant, I mentor both those starting out in Styling, as well as more experienced creatives - helping them to:

Monetise their Creativity

How? By offering stylists paid work - behind the scenes, as part of my dressing team at London Fashion Week; by giving stylists control over their own businesses with The Stylist’s Document Pack; by offering courses on understanding the Freelance Industry; AND with the Fashion Membership A DRESS CODE.

Fashion Stylist Rates

SURVEY RESULTS

Clients have long taken advantage of freelance fashion stylists:

• They rely on them competing against each other to drive down their day rates.

• Some clients don't pay on time, if at all.

• Others specify 2 - 3 prep days, when in reality they should be getting paid for a week's worth of prep.
