His story

I’m Michael Angelo, a freelance stylist and menswear blogger. How I got into fashion was because of what I studied at college which was hairdressing. Whilst doing the course,  I fell into fashion as both hair and fashion connect well together. I didn’t know anyone involved in the fashion industry so I created a fashion shout out page via Instagram to promote upcoming brands. No one knew who I was because I would only post brands and not myself in it. After a year of promoting brands, I reached 12K followers on Instagram and changed it into my personal page so people would know who was behind all of the shout outs. Since then, I kept getting approached by the brands I did shout outs to and gave me garments to do a shoot in and gained more exposure from them, then the page grew. I didn’t want to stop from there so I pushed myself over boundaries. When I turned 18 (last year) the first designer I ever did a collaboration with was for Vivienne Westwood Red Label. I’ve been getting tons of campaign shoots and projects after doing that collaboration. Being someone who’s only 18, I would not expect myself to be at a stage where I would receive projects from well known brands such as RayBan, Diesel and much more!
