Behind every great red-carpet moment is a team of makeup, hair and fashion stylists that have come together to make it happen. While celebrity stylists have traditionally remained behind the scenes, now more than ever, they are finding themselves under the spotlight. From social media influencers eager to tap into future trends to designers hoping to find an “in” to dressing their celebrity muses, the celebrity stylist holds more power in 2019 than ever before. To keep you in the know, we’re pulling back the curtain on the 10 celebrity stylists you should know — and follow — in 2019.

Hailey Bieber (formerly Baldwin) in Alexander Wang at the 2019 Met Gala
Looking every bit the “camp” theme at this year’s Met Gala, newlywed Hailey Bieber stunned in a second-skin long sleeve bubblegum-pink gown by Alexander Wang, complete with risqué super-low back and peek-a-boo panty detail. Widely regarded as one of the best — and most on-theme — looks of the evening, the ensemble channeled modern-day Barbie and was a perfect fit for the blonde bombshell, who confidently rocked the glam version of the look on the pink carpet, later changing into an edgier ensemble for the after-party.

Julia Roberts in Stella McCartney at the 2019 Golden Globe Awards
Referring to her stylist of 12 years as her “dream girlfriend”, it’s no wonder this collaboration between Julia Roberts and her fashion expert have resulted in so many incredible style moments since the two officially paired up in 2007 (though Roberts’ had worked with her before — the iconic 2001 vintage Valentino Roberts wore to the Oscar was Stewarts’ handiwork). At the Golden Globes this past year, Roberts’ was all smiles as she walked the red carpet in one of her coolest ensembles to date. We love an unexpected trouser-moment, and this one was elevated in a big way by the belted tulle dress which Roberts’ wore over top — not to mention the actresses’ greatest accessory: that megawatt smile.

Nina Dobrev in custom Zac Posen at the 2019 Met Gala
Wearing custom Zac Posen, Canadian actress Nina Dobrev looked like a futuristic fairy in the bustier top and voluminous ballerina-style skirt, printed and assembled in a collaboration between Zac Posen, GE Additive and Protolabs. The outfit was a work of art, and the bustier alone took 200 hours to complete from the printing lab in Germany, and was hailed as a true representation of design collaboration between man and machine.

Tracee Ellis Ross in Lavie by CK at the 2018 American Music Awards
Hosting the American Music Awards in 2018 after such a successful job of it in 2017, Tracee Ellis Ross, alongside her equally-ambitious stylist, were on a mission to top the nine killer outfits she had donned doing the same gig the year before. As if it were ever a question — Ross and her 12 outfit changes did not disappoint. The styling collaboration for the big night had a thoughtful approach, as Ross and her stylist looked to put a spotlight on black fashion designers as their “style theme” for the evening.
