A Lesson in Styling: Pre-Styling

Wooden-Coat-Hangers-LH104-

As a stylist, there is a lot involved in prepping a job — meetings, emails, research, pulling clothes, getting your paperwork in order, etc. However, one of the most important tasks involved in preparing for a job is pre-styling. What is pre-styling? Pre-styling is the act of getting your hero looks together before you go on set (didn’t we sound all Webster’s Dictionary with that one?).

The SOS team had a little pre-styling party this past Friday night in preparation for a weekend full of shooting. Our pre-styling ritual involved setting up racks and racks of clothes, ordering a pizza, turning on some music, and going to town … styling town!!

Our party went well into the night (we were putting together looks until almost 2am). Sure we lost a lot of precious sleeping time but getting our looks together the night before and in a nice relaxed environment totally took the on set stress level down a notch or two (or ten).
