How Event Styling Works
The Vision Call
We discuss your event, personal style, body preferences, and the energy you want to embody. Carly takes detailed notes on every preference.
The Curation
Carly pulls 3-5 complete looks from her archive and trusted sources. Each look includes the dress/outfit, shoes, accessories, and underpinnings.
The Fitting
You try on each look in Carly's Brooklyn studio. Adjustments are made, alternatives are presented, and the final look is perfected.
The Big Day
Carly provides day-of styling notes and, for Signature and Weekend clients, on-site coordination to ensure every detail is flawless.
Carly found my wedding dress in a vintage archive in Paris. It was the only one of its kind, and it fit me like it was made for me.
