A good stylist knows that and is not going to push you to wear something that you're not comfortable with.
I'm interested in every aspect of fashion. I think it's in my bones. When I was younger I used to be my mum's stylist, picking things out for her to wear. I'd say to her, 'If anybody asks you who styled you tonight say, 'Georgia.'
Eventually, I manage to cheer Mum up by allowing her to go through my wardrobe and criticize all my clothes.
My stylist and agency staff are the ones that do a good job telling me what to wear.

If you're going to buy a suit, don't buy one off the peg if you can afford not to. Go to a tailor, as I always do; find the style you like, and have it fitted to your shape.
As the stylist, sometimes you see things that you love that don't work, and that's OK. That's why we have fittings!
I like the concept of dressing people. I used to not care whether people bought the clothes or not, but I kind of like it now. I wouldn't label that commercialism; it's more like I do this work because I want people to wear it.
