  • (classical music)

  • - I absolutely love being a stylist.

  • These, Selena wore them and it sold out.

  • The clothes that you wear tells people who you are.

  • And with each one of my clients, what I am thinking about

  • is their body and their style, and their style is both

  • their taste and my version of them combined.

  • I think I always was drawn to fashion,

  • I can't really pinpoint a time when I wasn't.

  • My first word was shoe.

  • (laughs)

  • A lot of my memories of childhood are tied

  • to what I was wearing.

  • My great-grandmother collected a lot of carpets

  • and antiques and crystal, and it was important to my mom

  • that I know that these things were precious

  • and that they were special.

  • There is this real appreciation for beauty and art

  • and adornment, and I was taught to value that,

  • that that was a pleasure of life.

  • I just took it to an extreme.

  • I grew up in Easton, Pennsylvania.

  • We came to New York all the time.

  • I always dressed myself and always chose what I wore

  • and I really loved saddle shoes and I had little shoe polish

  • 'cause I liked to make the white super white

  • and I'd polish them every day.

  • When I was super little, I was allowed to read magazines

  • at the libraries.

  • I wasn't allowed to read Cosmo 'cause it's racy

  • but I was allowed to read Vogue and I loved YM,

  • Sassy was amazing, I loved Interview when I was little.

  • I think my family was always supportive

  • of my love of fashion, but I don't think anybody

  • considered that working in fashion could be a career.

  • I remember when I was like 16, a friend's older sister

  • was going to FIT and I came home and I said to my mom,

  • do you know there are colleges for fashion?

  • And she like laughed.

  • And that was sort of the end of the discussion.

  • So then I went to college and I studied English

  • and Art History.

  • At that point, I was like, I want to work for a magazine,

  • I knew I wanted to work for a magazine.

  • That was super important to me, it was sort of in my mind.

  • I tried to live in LA for a little while but I'm from here.

  • My friends are here, my family is here,

  • and I don't know how to do fashion anywhere else.

  • I got an internship running the closet

  • at Lynne Franks and I got to work at London fashion week.

  • It was like eye-opening, it felt great.

  • I lived in this cool apartment and we went out all the time

  • and I felt like I had a really good job.

  • I didn't want to come back.

  • My parents weren't psyched, I don't think

  • they were impressed by the whole situation.

  • Yeah.

  • (jazzy music)

  • I came home for Christmas holiday

  • and Kati Korbiyako was the art director at Glamour Magazine

  • and she had two boys who were my friends.

  • And I called Kati and she said, oh Kate Young,

  • I've been waiting for you to call me

  • since you were 12 years old.

  • Let's go to Human Resources.

  • Sarah Slaven was there, she was like the Human Resources

  • god at Conde Nast.

  • She took me to Paul Wilmot and Paul took me

  • to Anna's office.

  • This all happened like.

  • - Yes!

  • Oh my god, I was totally nervous, I was 20 years old.

  • Flew back to England, quit my job, moved out of my place,

  • started working as Paul Wilmot's assistant

  • and Paul Wilmot quit like the second day I worked there.

  • But I had just met Anna and Anna's assistant quit that day

  • so I went back down to Anna's office,

  • interviewed with her, and got a job in her office,

  • so it all kind of snowballed very quickly.

  • - Anna Wintour's office. - You know, I insist

  • on interviewing all the assistants because we're going to

  • invest two or three years of time and training

  • into these young women, they have to be promotable women.

  • - I can tell you what I was wearing.

  • I remember I was wearing Tom Ford Gucci velvet

  • drainpipe trousers and Patrick Cox boots

  • and like a silk shirt, probably just like what I have on now

  • and then she knew Lynne Franks so she looked at my resume

  • and was like.

  • But she said something to me in the interview,

  • she was like, you know, this is a tedious job,

  • this is a difficult job, working for me,

  • but if you're good at it, it'll be worth your while.

  • - [Man] Anna Wintour!

  • - I had a really hard time watching Devil Wears Prada

  • because my perception of the experience was so different.

  • I never felt like I was being taken advantage of

  • or that I was disrespected in any way.

  • I was like, I'm getting Anna Wintour coffee.

  • I was so excited that she gave me a couture dress to clean

  • and I could, I had never held a couture dress before,

  • I could open it up and look at it and see the beading.

  • So Vogue was actually the first place where I felt seen,

  • I felt like, oh, I can talk about shoes for 15 minutes

  • and you won't think I'm dumb.

  • I'm going to talk about shoes with two girls

  • with Ivy League educations for the next 35 minutes

  • and we're going to be really serious about it

  • and it was the first time in my life that I could do that

  • and feel validated.

  • (somber music)

  • I wake up incredibly early and it's often still dark out

  • and no one else is awake.

  • Things are still and quiet and I can think

  • and drink coffee.

  • I just love it.

  • I have ideas all the time and I'm constantly like,

  • oh, I should do this, I should do this.

  • - Hello! - Hi!

  • - Good to see you.

  • - I like this one.

  • I really enjoy making things and finding an outlet

  • for creative inspiration, but the thing that's really

  • exciting about optical is it's not a season like fashion

  • that just disappears, we just keep selling them.

  • So the collection is getting broader,

  • we're not really losing any of the old styles.

  • Which is really satisfying as a creative person,

  • it's really nice to not have your work just like go away.

  • You know?

  • - No is not an answer.

  • So if she asks you something and it's impossible,

  • come up with seven other ways that you're going to accomplish

  • something very very very similar and present them to her.

  • Done.

  • It's a great way to know how to work with celebrities.

  • No is a cop-out, there's always an alternative.

  • I think the first celebrity that I styled outside

  • of magazines was Jennifer Connelly and we really got along

  • and so that continued from there.

  • I think this is the dress that Margot wore to the Oscars

  • in 2016, and this is the sketch from Tom Ford.

  • There have been times when I've done an awards season

  • with clients where we have a mood board

  • and we have a plan we're sticking to.

  • And then there are other clients who I just kind of know

  • how I want them to look, but I mean, it has to suit them,

  • they have to feel comfortable in it,

  • it's not like some thing I create and push on them.

  • I met Selena because she was ready to change

  • and she was so open to sort of anything, it was exciting.

  • - Selena, you're up! - And it was like

  • Salron, Dior, and Valentino.

  • Like, let's raise the bar.

  • This is the dress Selena wore to the Victoria's Secret show

  • a few years ago.

  • I had this idea in my mind that I wanted her to wear

  • a dress that was like a swimsuit

  • and that's for the mic pack.

  • Do you appreciate that?

  • This is Dakota's dress from the Met,

  • it came with all the embroidery.

  • I think it's easy to talk to movie stars about movies,

  • it's what they, that's what they know, it's their business

  • and it's also to talk about characters through the lens

  • of cinema, and I think it's important to have

  • some sort of voice, some sort of identity.

  • It's these tiny little gestures and details.

  • Each person or story or designer needs to have

  • this very clear vision that is maintained throughout

  • so that it's recognizable and that there's a strong

  • narrative thread for each client.

  • I think that whether you like it or not,

  • your clothes say a lot about you to other people.

  • (classical music)

  • - Selena! - Celebrities,

  • when they're doing press and red carpet,

  • they're trying to communicate an image

  • that will help to promote a film, and also promote

  • themselves as business people, as actors,

  • so I want to create an image that's as true to their idea

  • of themselves as possible.

  • I do this 'cause I really am connected to a magical dress

  • on a real woman who is the woman everybody cares about

  • for something she created that touched people this season.

  • The woman of the moment in the most amazing dress

  • walking is exciting to me, on a really fundamental level.

  • Everything's so different from when I first started,

  • magazines were king and people bought fashion,

  • I don't know what's happening anymore.

  • I'm doing the same thing I've been doing for 20 years

  • but people care about it now.
