Styling, for me, isn’t just about picking clothes - it’s about helping you show your real self. I want your style to feel like your story, not just some trend. Trust is everything. If we click, that connection always shows in your look. ### What I Do I work with celebs, artists, and anyone who needs their outward look to match their vibe. Whether it’s for a red carpet event, a brand shoot, or an interview, I make sure you’re not just dressed up - you’re feeling yourself. My thing is Personal brand styling, making sure your outfit fits the moment and your personality. ### How We Work No cookie-cutter stuff here. I always team up with my clients, bouncing ideas and making sure you’re comfortable. Like, when Gayatri Bahl trusted me for her Critics’ Choice Awards look - that’s what makes this job worth it. It’s all about collaboration. ### My Work - Quick Glance - Red carpet style inspiration: Layered, graceful looks for award shows (think Gayatri Bahl, Maheck Chahal) - Editorial fashion shoot: High-fashion, bold choices for magazine features (Saiyami Kher, Dhawal Kulkarni) - Brand campaigns: Translating brands into real, wearable styles (Rohit Sharma for Adidas, Jim Sarbh for Infinix) ### The Team Behind the Scenes It’s never just me. Designers, makeup artists, photographers - we all pitch in to make the final look. I’m lucky to work with some amazing people. ### Where I Work I’m based in Mumbai but I travel for shoots, events, and campaigns. Thailand, Sri Lanka, Azerbaijan, you name it - styling takes me everywhere. ## Highlights Browse through Varunesh Pal's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/varuneshpal/celebrity-personal-styling/featured) - ![For this Filmfare editorial with Saiyami Kher, I aimed for a powerful and intimate portrait.

I found mine from College of Art, Delhi—16 years ago, rough but honest. That same spark, it’s still pushing me. Mumbai changed things for me, since 2014. Met folks, made connections, styled an actress in a designer’s outfit I first saw here. Life really loops around. What keeps me going is the people—the artists, my team, the actors. Grateful, always. That’s why I’m still in love with this work. ### My work - **Costume Design, Fashion Styling & Creative Direction**: I create visual stories with clothes—editorial fashion styling, ad campaigns, films, product shoots, all of it. - **Celebrity & Brand Collaborations**: Worked with brands like Toyota, Adidas, Lenskart, and styled top celebrities. Big or small, every project matters. - **Teamwork Makes It Happen**: Always a group effort—photographers, directors, makeup artists, everyone. I make sure credit goes around. - **Style That Speaks**: From powerful menswear looks to futuristic editorial concepts, I aim for authentic style that fits the story. ## More services from Varunesh Pal - [Costume Design for Film & Media](https://mytribe.in/varuneshpal/costume-design-for-film-media) · ₹2-5L per project (estimate) - [Editorial Fashion Styling](https://mytribe.in/varuneshpal/editorial-fashion-styling) · ₹18-60K per day (estimate) - [Commercial & Advertising Styling](https://mytribe.in/varuneshpal/commercial-advertising-styling) · ₹18-60K per shoot day (estimate) ## Book To book Varunesh Pal, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Celebrity%20%26%20Personal%20Styling%20by%20Varunesh%20Pal.)
