I have an idea, but I don't think that many people really understand the difficulty and function of a TRUE wardrobe stylist. A real wardrobe stylist does not make clothes. That is a clothing designer. A wardrobe stylist has connections with groups of designers and a great eye for how outfits go together and how they will look on certain models. Can I have some wardrobe stylists explain to those in the dark (including myself to a certain extent) what exactly being a successful wardrobe stylist entails?

A wardrobe stylist possesses creative visualization of realized characterization and has excellent learned and intuitive political instincts...  A good eye and thick skin.
