Mimi Cutrell, 33 years old and Santa Barbara-born and most of all a very well-respected stylist of many celebrities such as the Hadid sisters, Lily Rose-Depp, Madeline Cline, Ariana Grande and Iris Law to name a few. Not only is Mimi a great stylist but her clients are for the most part commended by many on their fashion style, especially in the last decade.
Most recently, are the Hadid sisters & Lily Rose-Depp has been creating the ideal street style for Gen Z, such as Bella Hadid’s Model off-duty look and street style, Lily Rose-Depp is most known for her ballerina-chic look & popularizing ballet flats once again with her being spotted in her Repetto shoes.
Mimi has definitely contributed to headlines about these famous stars - and more than just these two it-girls, Between the stitches, a notable stylist's work may get misconstrued in the headline as many will wonder more about the celebrity and what they are wearing, but not thinking about who is behind putting their outfit together.
Mimi, in 2018 interviewed with a Cristine Brache for the publisher Coveteur, about her career in styling, and styling Gigi Hadid on many occasions “Her aesthetic? The opposite of what everyone else is doing: “I think that you don’t need to show skin to be sexy. It’s more about how you carry yourself and being effortless. For [Gigi], for the CFDAs, I wanted her to make a high-fashion statement. She wore The Row and was completely covered up, and she looked so beautiful.”
Mimi mentions that Gigis look was beautiful because it is timeless, classic makes a statement but also shows the public that being sexy doesn't have anything to do with how much skin you decide to show, a truly good stylist will commend that as style is subjective, not everyone wants to show skin, it's about the outfit, and making an outfit admirable and bold can create a sexy look for the wearer.
Mimi overall seems to be inspired by classic looks, she likes timeless staple pieces that can be worn again, she likes vintage pieces and has demonstrated that in her most recent Instagram posts of her styling Ariana Grande, the vintage-looking dress on July 28th, a dress by Thom Browne As pictured above, the dress Ariana is wearing creates a versatile look and can be styled in different ways. The overall silhouette of the dress creates a nice shape for multiple wearers, it can be inclusive to different body types.
Mimi adds in the same mentioned Coveteur article “I always think less is more, and I love a classic look. In addition to jeans and a T-shirt, I love seeing an amazing set which is timeless and something you don’t see every day. I want my clients to look back on what they wore 20 years from now and be proud of how they looked.” Mimi wants the wearer to feel secure in what they are wearing, her vision is to have classic pieces ultimately styled in different and unique ways, yet still keeping the classic, and timeless look to create a cohesive look that can be admired for years ahead.
Between the stitches, that is truly what makes a
stylist create a name for themselves behind the scenes.
