“I knew it would be a big look, but I didn’t expect it would break the internet.” That’s how fashion stylist and MR PORTER FUTURES mentor Ms Julie Ragolia describes the immaculate SAINT LAURENT look that she selected for Mr Lakeith Stanfield at last month’s Oscars ceremony, and which garnered more attention than many of the red-carpet gowns. Ragolia also styled actor Mr Riz Ahmed but insists, “I’m not a celebrity stylist – I’m an editorial girl.” Starting out at W Magazine, she’s since shot for Fantastic Man, Purple, WSJ and L’Uomo Vogue. Here, Ragolia talks about her fashion beginnings, how missing a Marc Jacobs show became a blessing in disguise and why she’s so excited to be part of MR PORTER FUTURES.
