Cinderella had her fairy godmother — and a crew of woodland creatures — to help her get dressed, but Hollywood stars rely on their personal stylists when they’re in need of some sartorial magic. Today, The Hollywood Reporter released its annual list of the top celebrity dressers in the 25 Most Powerful Stylists issue.
Leslie Fremar (pictured above with Julianne Moore), who is reportedly shopping a denim line with client Charlize Theron, took the top stop on this year’s list. (Last year’s #1, Kate Young, who came in at number four this year, has been working with both Michelle Williams and Rachel Weisz on the Oz The Great and Powerful press tour while prepping for the launch of her clothing line for Target.)
Petra Flannery, who styles Mila Kunis and Claire Danes, claimed the second spot, and Rachel Zoe — who was taken out of the running in 2012 because THR deemed her “too big to rank” — returns to the list at number three after dressing Oscar winners Anne Hathaway and Jennifer Lawrence. Rounding out the top five is Young and Elizabeth Stewart, who works with Jessica Chastain and Amanda Seyfried.
Among the first-timers on the list are Erin Walsh, who styles Scandal star Kerry Washington, Jeanann Williams, a publicist-turned-stylist who works with Naomi Watts, and Ryan Hastings, who helps Robert Pattinson suit up for red carpet appearances.
