Celestine Cooney - Stylist

[iperlchen]

Celestine Cooney grew up in the Irish country side riding horses and spending whole summers fishing in the river by her house. She got a degree in Film but preferred magazines so she became a fashion editor of two magazines in Dublin. Three years ago she moved to London and worked for Nicola Formichetti, Dazed's senior fashion editor. Now that she is grown up she is a stylist and lives in Dalston, East London.

I love it, perle!.. there's so much simplicity and juvenility in the way she mixes things up, and both adjectives can be a dagger when you see other young stylists playing specifically with them and bordering into trendiness or just plain dullness but she makes it work beautifully, it feels so light-hearted and confident to look at.

bedankt, ma'am.

Thought this deserved a bump..
Mullet, I think you described it wonderfully. Her work gives off a very natural feeling.

Also, I found this slightly more elaborate bio.

Celestine Cooney grew up in the Irish countryside riding ponies and fishing in the river beside her house. Her mother maintains she changed her outfits four times a day as a child and was always wayward in her choice of attire. Early fashion moments include wearing a boy’s green corduroy shorts and waistcoat suit with a check shirt and Dr.martins for her confirmation day.

Her styling career began through a series of co-incidents and accidents in Dublin where she eventually became the fashion editor of Mongrel magazine and The Dubliner. In 2003 she moved to London to work for Dazed and Confused magazine as assistant to the senior fashion editor Nicola Formichetti. She is now a freelance stylist and lives in Hackney, East London.

Her clients include Topshop, Puma, BT2, Next, Topman and Levis. Musicians she has worked with include Maximo Park, M.I.A, Muse, Kano and Mika.

Publications Celestine contributes to include British Vogue, Teen Vogue, Chinese Vogue, Nylon, Mixte, Dazed UK, Dazed Japan and V Magazine. She is currently working on the Ashish show that she is styling during London Fashion week.

We don't have too many Irish fashion heroines but Celestine is certainly one of them. I've met her once and she seems super nice too.
