The email that put me on the cover of WWD May 2, 2 The email that put me on the cover of WWD May 2, 2024. 

Thank you for reaching out for insights on a fascinating shift in the tech world’s sartorial choices. Michelle T. Sterling, an image consultant and personal stylist to tech CEOs and Global Image Group’s founder, has indeed observed that high-powered tech CEOs are elevating their wardrobe game, opting for what we call ‘quiet luxury’ to establish a distinct personal brand identity that resonates sophistication without ostentatious branding.

In Silicon Valley and beyond, there’s a sense of understated wealth that does not clamor for attention but rather conveys worth through subtleness. It’s a matter of personal evolution and an organic shift that comes with maturing in the public eye. Take Mark Zuckerberg, for instance. His style has naturally evolved as he aged; the fashion paradigm for him now heavily leans on blue and grey luxury basics that align with Facebook’s brand palette.

Jensen Huang’s bold foray into a black biker aesthetic is commendable and fits his Nvidia brand image, which appeals to dynamic fields like gaming and cryptocurrency mining. It’s indeed a stark divergence from his previous engineer’s attire, now commanding presence.

In contrast, Elon Musk’s style accentuates his roots, showcasing a classic approach interspersed with hints of his South African privileged heritage. His consistent look integrates seamlessly with the aura of legacy and influence.

Satya Nadella’s wardrobe choices seem to reflect his allegiance to tradition and the corporate ethos of Microsoft, appearing unadorned by the hands of a stylist but capturing the essence of the brand’s mission through classic and eminent ensembles.

Personal style development among the tech elite often mirrors the maturity of their brands and personal identities. It seems less about style in the conventional sense and more about crafting a personal image through clothing that simplifies daily routines while still making potent statements.

Develop your personal brand image with Image Consultant and Personal Stylist Michelle T. Sterling. Service details on the bio link.

How to Find the Right Jeans for Your Body Type Jea How to Find the Right Jeans for Your Body Type
Jeans are a closet essential for everyone, regardless of your personal style or profession. However, finding the right pair of jeans for your body type can be a daunting task. With so many different styles and cuts available, it can be tough to know what will work best for you. In this blog post, I’ll break down the different body types and recommend the best jeans for each. Plus, I’ll share why scheduling an Essential Style Consultation with Sterling Personal Styling is the perfect way to identify your body type and what you should be wearing.

Hourglass Figure:

If you have an hourglass figure, you want to show off those curves! High-waisted jeans or boot cut styles are perfect for highlighting your waist and hips. Skinny jeans can be flattering, but you have to be careful not to create an imbalance with your curves. A good tip is to balance fitted tops and sweaters with wider leg jeans to keep your figure proportionate.

Pear Shape:

If your body is larger and curvier at the bottom than at the top, you likely have a pear-shaped body. The best type of jeans for this body type are ones with a flare or wide leg. This style will balance your proportions and create more curves on top. Avoid skinny jeans or super tight leggings, as they will only emphasize your bottom half.

Athletic Figure:

If you have an athletic body type, this means you have a slim frame with minimal curves. Skinny jeans will look terrific on you, as they emphasize your lower half. However, if you want to create the illusion of a curvy figure, consider adding a belt or wearing flared jeans. A good tip is to choose a high-waisted style to give yourself some length and to help create curves.
