The original — and most sought-after —bridal stylist in the world, Julie Sabatino is the founder of The Stylish Bride and the go-to for some of the most discerning brides in the world. Julie has spent two decades curating wedding looks for an impressive client list that includes celebrities, socialites, and elite power players who count on her impeccable taste, highly-coveted connections, and unparalleled expertise to guide them through the often confusing world of wedding attire. Today, there isn’t a top designer she doesn’t have an ironclad relationship with — Oscar de la Renta named a dress after her — but she hasn’t forgotten what it felt like to be a bride-to-be with no idea of how to navigate the shopping process. “I can remember feeling overwhelmed by the options and also humiliated and discouraged that none of the samples fit; I had a real crisis of confidence and looked for guidance, but there was no such thing as a bridal stylist in 2001.” In the 20-plus years since founding the Bridal Styling Industry, she has worked with the most respected planners in the world, including Marcy Blum, Mindy Weiss and Colin Cowie and frequently shares her advice in high-profile publications, including Vogue, WWD, The New York Times, Brides and Martha Stewart Weddings. After years of being urged to share her knowledge with the world, Julie wrote her first book, Dressed, Styled and Down the Aisle: Becoming a Stylish Bride which has been hailed as a “Must-read manifesto” by insiders (released summer 2024). Passionate about inclusivity, Julie is also the creator and visionary behind The Sample Size Solution - a portable product designed to help make sample dresses fit the bride - which has been applauded for its practicality and helping to address body size stigmatization. “At the end of the day, it’s not about how a bride looks, but how she feels. If she doesn’t feel good, it doesn’t matter how gorgeous the dress is; her beauty will not shine through.”
