What You Might Do as a Professional Stylist

The British College of Professional Styling has developed this Course to ensure that you achieve the skills of a professional stylist and the marketing know-how to obtain clients. And, also get paid for your efforts.

The Course focus is on your becoming a freelance stylist. But your qualifications will also help you find full-time employment in all the areas where stylists are needed.

Here’s the good news. There are more jobs for stylists than there are stylists to fill them.

You’ll find the stylist at work with advertising agencies, magazines, production companies, internet publishers and advertisers, celebrities, catwalk models, photographers, fashion shows, recording companies, TV shows, commercials, catalogues, editorial work, public appearances, concert performances and music videos. Many more stylists make an excellent living from image consultancy and personal shopping services. Or, food styling and visual merchandising.

Stylists know how to create the look, develop the image and identify and interpret current and future fashion trends.

The Work of the Stylist Includes the Following and More:

  • Editorial styling - styling images for media publications such as fashion magazines, catalogues or Internet sites.
  • Personal styling/image consulting - providing advice or assistance for clients on how to improve their look.
  • Personal shopping - selecting clothes for a client.
  • Show styling - styling fashion parades, catwalks, or TV personalities for shows or events.
  • Celebrity styling – famous people on and off the set.
  • Commercial styling - styling images or looks for advertising and the Internet.
  • Visual merchandising - conceptualising, designing, and implementing window and in-store displays for both online and brick and mortar retail stores.
  • Finding hard-to-find pieces and creating balance.
  • Wardrobe styling.
  • Prop & Set styling.
  • Food styling.

The “Professional Photo, Film, TV & Personal Stylist’s” Course offers you the major goal of building your portfolio and obtaining your first client - before the end of the Course or soon afterwards. This is one of our stated guarantees. And, we'll keep working with you until this important moment.

Consider the immense satisfaction of securing your first client. And, the sheer fun and excitement of seeing your first cheque. You can now make this an exciting reality.

Styling, especially freelance styling, offers one of the few remaining opportunities for individual freedom, self-expression and financial gain. It's also a lot of fun and can lead some stylists to varying degrees of fame and fortune. Your success in this Course will provide you with a guaranteed way to earn income from professional styling in all areas where stylists are needed... for as long as you wish!

We also understand about time restraints. Hence, your Course is self-paced and if you wish you may take longer than 12 or 24 weeks to complete the Course. In fact, you may take up to a year or more to complete your course of studies. We’ll keep working with you, every step of the way, until you obtain your first paid commission.

About The Course

Success in freelance styling is very much a matter of knowing how to go about it. A successful stylist does not have to be gifted. Every freelance stylist was once a complete beginner.

The “Professional Photo, Film, TV & Personal Stylist’s” Course has been designed to develop your individual styling skills. Your own professional goals and areas of interest are the focus of your assignments and studies. At the beginning of the Course you are assigned an individual tutor, a working professional, experienced in the areas of styling that most interest you. You and your tutor work together to develop styling ideas and approaches relating specifically to your interests.

These might include fashion styling, image consultancy, photo styling, film and television styling, wardrobe, fashion parades, concert performances and music video or any of the hundreds of other jobs available for stylists. Naturally if you choose to pursue any number of styling subjects we are there to help.

What You Will Achieve

The “Professional Photo, Film, TV & Personal Stylist’s” Course is designed to get you working as quickly as possible. From your first assignments, you are developing your own styling ideas, turning them into an exciting reality and discovering how to promote your skills to your vast range of potential clients.

The Course is not only structured to teach you the techniques of styling. It's also intended to help you obtain clients and be paid for your efforts. Stated simply, you’ll know how to provide competent styling skills for the thousands of clients that commission stylists.

Further, you’ll know how to profit from all the other little-known but highly lucrative areas of freelance styling. For example, you’ll have the skills to work as a personal shopper or image consultant, to assist internet publishers and advertisers, or to dress talent in fashion parades and show-biz performances. You’ll also discover the exciting world of visual merchandising, helping all the retail businesses that require their merchandise presented with impact.

There is an insatiable demand for the skills offered by the freelance stylist. For example, when it comes to obtaining a look or creating an image, some 95% of the fashion, entertainment, advertising and publishing world rely heavily, if not exclusively, on the freelance stylist. When you know what the craft requires you will have a highly marketable skill which you can use for a full or part-time career or as a profitable sideline.
