My Philosophy on Style, Grooming, and Confidence
I am Manya, and I believe your wardrobe is more than just fabric. Here is the story behind how I transitioned from commercial styling to empowering individuals through personal image and etiquette.
Here’s a little bit about me. This graphic shares my work experience, education, and my passion for styling. My background includes a Masters in Fashion Styling and experience mentoring over 100 brands and students.
This is me in my element, working with color palettes and planning styles. My journey from a fresher in the industry to founding School of Styling has been fueled by a mission to empower others through fashion.
I started School of Styling to help individuals feel confident and empowered through the right clothing and grooming. This is my core belief: your image is a powerful tool for self-expression and success.
Hello, I'm Manya. I'm a style consultant, image consultant, and etiquette trainer. I'm here to help you tell your story through your personal style.
About My Story & Approach
Styling isn't just about what you wear, but how you feel when you step out. My process always starts with a deep dive into your goals, ensuring that whether we are fixing your workwear, auditing your closet, or polishing your dining etiquette, the result feels 100% like you, not someone else's trend.
After six years of working in the media and advertising industry as a freelance stylist, I realized that the real magic doesn't happen on a fashion set—it happens when you feel confident in your own skin. I founded the School of Styling because I wanted to bridge the gap between high-fashion knowledge and the real-life needs of people who just want to feel sharp and put together.
My Background
My foundation is built on solid learning: I hold a Bachelors in Home Science from Lady Irwin College and a Masters in Fashion Styling from Pearl Academy. While I have styled for top brands and public figures, my favorite part of the job is mentoring students and helping everyday individuals see the potential in their own wardrobes.
How I Work
I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. When we work together, we look at your specific lifestyle, your body shape, and the colors that actually brighten your face. Whether it is a virtual wardrobe audit to clear out the clutter or an intensive etiquette session where we decode everything from the BMW table rule to how to stir your coffee properly, my approach is practical.
We focus on these key pillars:
- Mindset Shifts: Helping you move from 'I have nothing to wear' to 'I know exactly how to style this.'
- Practical Grooming: Fixing the small, invisible details that make you look polished without trying too hard.
- Empowerment: Giving you the tools to carry your outfit with confidence, regardless of the occasion.
My studio is in Sector 104, Gurugram, but I work with clients all over through online coaching sessions as well. Let’s stop stressing about what to wear and start building a style rhythm that is uniquely yours.
