15 Celebrity Stylists to Follow on Instagram Before the Oscars
On the red carpet and IRL, celeb style is pretty lit (and let’s be real: It kind of has to be). But, unlike those of us who need Instagram and Pinterest to gather inspo, celebs have a whole team behind them ensuring their #OOTD is always on point (maybe enlisting the help of a pro should be #1 on our list of 2017 style resolutions — if only). Who do celebs turn to for next-level looks? A visionary stylist, that’s who. Below, we’re introducing you to 15 stylists responsible for your fave celeb’s (think: Emma Watson, Kendall Jenner and Chrissy Teigen) killer red carpet and everyday outfits. Ready that pointer figure — you’ll want to add these innovators to your follow list STAT before the Oscars rolls around.

1. Sarah Slutsky: To say Sarah Slutsky makes our hearts flutter would be an understatement. When she’s not styling the likes of Emma Watson, Garance Doré and Elizabeth Olsen, you can find her jet-setting and owning the girlboss thing at her startup Cinematique, where she acts as VP of Special Projects. Our favorite part of her feed? Sarah does more than post pics of her starry clientele — she constantly shares sneak peeks of her own adventures and style. Brace yourselves for plenty of covetable duds from emerging (and surprisingly affordable) designers.

11. Leith Clark: To whom does Keira Knightley entrust her style? None other than Leith Clark. But stylist isn’t the only title she owns — Leith is also Harper Bazaar’s Style Director at Large, founder of Lula magazine and Editor-in-Chief of The Violet Book. Yeah — she’s basically a business.

A post shared by Micaela Erlanger (@micaela) on
12. Micaela Erlanger: It was Micaela Erlanger who dressed icon Meryl Streep the night she delivered that riveting speech at the Golden Globes. The stylist has developed a rep for putting celebs in getups that are picture-perfect and unforgettable, including the $150,000 custom Calvin Klein gown Lupita Nyong’o rocked at the 2015 Oscars (which was later stolen from her hotel room and then returned). Other famous clientele includes Jared Leto. Check out her feed for pics of enviable accessories, celeb selfies and behind-the-scenes snaps.
13. Rebecca Corbin-Murray: Couture gowns, dreamy sets, It girl-approved accessories and seemingly endless celeb pics are what you’ll find scrolling through Rebecca Corbin-Murray’s feed. Familiar faces that pop up frequently include Emma Watson, Lily James, Sophie Turner and Jenna Coleman, whom she works with on the regular.
14. Arianne Phillips: This twice Oscar-nominated costume designer is the real deal. But beyond her work for films such as Kingsman: The Secret Service, Walk the Line, W.E. and A Single Man, Arianne’s well known for her long-standing relationship with Madonna, and is often the creative force behind her photo shoots, music videos and tour costumes.
