Professional and Corporate Styling Services in Christchurch
Style That Speaks Volumes
Based in Christchurch
Elevate your image with a corporate fashion stylist who understands brand alignment, digital presence and knows how to guide you or your team professionally and with compassion to the best versions of themselves.
​
I frequently travel to other centres and can either arrange a face-to-face consultation, or we can connect virtually if that suits you better.

What to Expect From Your Styling Session
Every session is tailored to your role, industry and goals. We start with a conversation about your work, values, and where you feel your image might be falling short. We’ll audit your existing wardrobe, identify gaps, and align every piece with your unique executive personal branding goals. I often work with clients preparing for public speaking, promotional shoots, rebrands or media appearances.
Whether it’s in person or online, the aim is always the same: to ensure your clothing supports your authority, confidence and message.
The Bright Red Difference
When it comes to professional styling, you're not just hiring a fashion expert. You're working with a seasoned professional who understands business. My background includes over two decades as an educator, presenter, and image consultant for business, allowing me to bridge the gap between fashion and function.
I know how to speak the language of branding, leadership and culture. Whether you need help with your corporate stylist identity or your team’s unified look, I provide actionable advice and wardrobe support that feels realistic and empowering.
Based in Christchurch, I also offer virtual consultations across the country, making it easy for clients seeking a corporate stylist in New Zealand who blends personal style with professional standards.
Dress for More Than the Job
Using Style as a Communication Tool
The way we present ourselves is more than aesthetic – it's strategy. Choosing the right clothing tells a story about who you are, how you work, and what you value. That’s why I don’t just focus on trends. I focus on alignment – between your appearance, your personality and your aspirations.
A session with me isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about amplifying who you already are through style. From colour choices to accessories, we refine your visual identity so that it feels authentic, purposeful and powerful.
Personal Styling That Works For You
Your needs don’t begin and end with the office. Through my personal styling services, I help clients navigate everyday wardrobes with the same clarity and confidence. We explore what fits, what flatters, and what feels aligned with who you are now – not who you used to be.
Whether you're rebuilding your wardrobe after a lifestyle change or wanting to dress more intentionally, personal styling gives you a foundation you can grow with.
Personal Shopping With Purpose
As your stylist, I take the guesswork out of shopping. Through my personal shopping sessions, we build a wardrobe that’s functional, flattering and on-brand. Every purchase is intentional. Every piece has a purpose. I’ll guide you towards the right stores, styles and staples to avoid impulse buys and frustration.
This service is ideal for professionals with limited time, or those who feel overwhelmed by the process.
From Cluttered to Curated: Wardrobe Styling
As a dedicated wardrobe stylist, I’ll help you turn an overstuffed wardrobe into an organised collection of outfits you love to wear. We’ll identify what stays, what goes, and what’s missing. The result is a streamlined, functional wardrobe that supports your lifestyle and reflects your role.
Whether it’s time to rebrand, return to work or feel more in control, this process is an essential reset.
Corporate Styling With Confidence
As your corporate stylist, I help you navigate dress codes, brand alignment and staff presentation. Whether you're a team leader or solo professional, aligning your appearance with your business goals builds trust, consistency and influence.
We can also work on staff image guidelines or offer workshops as part of a wider visual branding strategy.
Online Styling, Real-World Results
Through my fashion stylist online services, I support clients across New Zealand and beyond. We use video calls, shared boards, and styling apps to achieve tangible outcomes even when we’re not face-to-face. This is ideal for busy professionals or anyone outside of Christchurch.
Online doesn’t mean impersonal. You’ll still get tailored advice, curated suggestions, and guidance rooted in your personal brand.
Your Personal Styling Hub
If you’ve been searching for a personal stylist website that offers more than just fashion tips, you’re in the right place. Bright Red is your destination for image strategy, confidence-building and personal transformation – through clothing that truly fits you.
Explore articles, case studies and testimonials to see how I’ve helped others elevate their look and feel great in their own skin.
How to Find a Personal Stylist That Gets You
Wondering how to find a personal stylist that understands your values, lifestyle and goals? Look for someone who asks the right questions, sees the whole picture and isn’t just focused on trends. Style isn’t just what you wear – it’s how you live, work and show up.
My job is to help you get dressed with purpose. And it starts with a conversation.
Build Your Professional Dress Code With Confidence
A strong professional dress code isn’t restrictive – it’s empowering. Whether you’re an individual refining your look or a business establishing visual consistency, we can build a wardrobe framework that balances personal identity with professional expectations.
From defining what works for you to creating visual cohesion for your team, we make it feel natural and achievable.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a corporate / professional stylist actually do?
A corporate stylist helps individuals align their wardrobe with their professional goals, public presence, and personal brand. This may include selecting outfits for work, media appearances, speaking engagements, or content creation. At Bright Red, corporate styling is tailored to ensure you communicate confidence and credibility in every setting.
Who should hire a corporate / professional stylist?
Anyone who relies on visual presence for professional success can benefit, including business owners, lawyers, accountants, or anyone who is speaking publicly or who just wants to level up their image. If your appearance influences how you're perceived in your career, hiring a stylist can give you clarity and confidence.

Personal styling often focuses on day-to-day wear, lifestyle changes or self-expression, while corporate styling is more brand-focused. It ensures that your clothing reflects your business, aligns with public expectations, and supports your professional objectives.

Yes. Bright Red offers online styling services, meaning clients from anywhere in New Zealand can benefit.

Stephanie often travels to other centres in New Zealand and can by arrangement assist where you are based if face to face is your preference.
What should I bring to a corporate styling session?
You don’t need to bring anything but an open mind. If you’re doing a wardrobe audit, it helps to have access to your current clothing. Some clients also share professional photos or speaking topics to help Stephanie understand your brand.
