Featured Commercial Fashion & Campaign Styling
Styling is about more than just fabric—it is about narrative. Here are the campaigns where I have helped bring brand identities to life.
For this Toyota Hilux campaign, I crafted a look that embodies rugged exploration. The styling focuses on practical yet aspirational outdoor wear, ensuring the character and the vehicle tell a cohesive story of adventure.
This look for Only Vimal showcases my approach to modern corporate styling. I paired a classic brown pinstripe suit with a contrasting green shirt and patterned tie to create a look that is both professional and distinctive.
In this high-fashion editorial for Popley Eternal, the styling was conceptual and futuristic. I used a structured black gown and dramatic jewelry to create a celestial narrative, transforming the model into a cosmic entity.
For the Hilton Hotels campaign, the goal was to create a warm, relatable family moment. The styling uses comfortable, elegant clothing to capture the feeling of a perfect life-work balance, making luxury feel like home.
This campaign shot required a regal and traditional aesthetic. I styled the model in an ornate, custom-designed sherwani, creating a powerful image of heritage and majesty that complements the magnificent elephant.
Styling for John Jacobs Eyewear is about creating a distinct character. Here, I used vintage-inspired stripes and a classic car to build a narrative around the eyewear, making the product the hero of a timeless story.
This campaign video for Jade Blue Lifestyle demonstrates my versatility in motion. I styled a range of looks, from elegant all-white traditional wear for a grand entrance to modern pastel ethnic jackets and sharp business suits.
About Featured
On set, my role extends beyond just picking an outfit. I am constantly glued to the monitor, checking for collar gaps, cuff exposure, and the way a pant breaks during a stride. It is these small, technical adjustments that keep the look pristine, whether we are shooting a rugged outdoor Toyota campaign or a high-fashion editorial. Getting the clothing to perform for the camera is where the real work happens.
Commercial styling is a team sport. From the initial mood board to the final frame on the monitor, every project involves a tight collaboration with directors, photographers, and my styling assistants to ensure every detail lands correctly.
My approach varies based on the story we are telling. When working with brands like John Jacobs Eyewear or Toyota, the goal is often to build an authentic character whose clothing supports the narrative of exploration or professionalism. I focus on motion-ready styling for TVCs, using hidden tapes and weights to ensure the garment moves naturally, while for lookbooks, I focus on sharp fit corrections and inventory management to handle high volumes of looks per day.
I treat every project as a distinct chapter. Whether it is transforming a model into a cosmic entity for a Popley Eternal editorial or styling a relatable family moment for Hilton Hotels, the objective remains the same: making the visual story feel real. My experience has taught me that the best results come from rigorous preparation—the prep work, the fittings, and the 'Wardrobe Parade' before the camera even starts rolling. If you have a brand story that needs to be styled, I am here to ensure the visual execution matches your vision.
