Rachel Zoe


From red carpet dressing to design collaborations, advertising campaigns to editorial shoots and runway shows, stylist Rachel Zoe is the go-to force among "It" starlets, fashion houses, beauty firms and magazine editors looking for a dose of effortlessly chic style. Zoe's strength lies in a commitment to bringing out the best in the individual women she works with, including many of Hollywood's A-list leading ladies. Zoe is known for her signature look - bronzed, sexy and wrapped up in Seventies-tinged laidback glamour, and Women's Wear Daily traced Hollywood's new look to Zoe's own style. The Los Angeles Times noted the obvious influence of Zoe's signature style on the runways, and designers across the globe rely on Zoe for her fine tuned eye. October 2007 marked the launch of Zoe's first tome, Style A to Zoe by Grand Central Publishing, a stylebook filled with insightful tips and observations by Zoe, her designer friends and star clients. The book encompasses everything glamour when it comes to home décor, jet setting, entertaining and, of course, getting dressed. Zoe recently partnered with storied accessories maker LEIBER for a co-branded collaboration of über-luxe bags that are completely Rachel Zoe, and served as the face of Samsung's stylish BlackJack national ad campaign. She is a contributing editor and consultant for Piperlime.com, Gap Inc.'s online shoe and handbag destination, and is currently planning the development of Rachel Zoe branded lines to include accessories, jewelry and handbags. Zoe has been on countless "most influential" lists from virtually every domestic and international fashion and financial publication. She is the recipient of numerous prestigious industry awards including The Fashion Group International's 2006 Fashion Oracle Award, the Accessories Council 2006 Fashion Influencer Ace Award and Hollywood Life Magazine's 2006 Star Stylist Award. MSN.com also named Zoe one of the "10 Most Influential Women of 2006." Zoe and her husband, venture capitalist and new-media entrepreneur Rodger Berman, reside in Los Angeles.
