Great skin, expressive eyes, and charisma.

HAIR STYLIST OF THE MONTH: ANITA ARSOVA


For Anita, hair and makeup has always served as a creative outlet for her thoughts, emotions and imagination.  Her diverse portfolio is steeped in the philosophy that hair and makeup is an art form.  Versatile and detail-driven, Anita's work seeks to find harmony between the beautiful and the surreal.  As a fully certified cosmetologist and makeup artist based in Chicago, Anita's clients are as diverse and unique as her work.  Among her specialties, some highlights include fashion shows, photography, television, film, weddings and other special occasions.  Anita also provides lessons on proper makeup application.

WARDROBE STYLIST OF THE MONTH: WILFORD LENOV


Wilford Lenov was born and raised in one of the fashion capitals of the world - Los Angeles.  However, his personal sense of style reaches beyond his immediate locale, as well as our current time period.  His inspiration is a potpurri consisting of sources such as Japan, classic styles, west coast fashion and music that makes you feel fun and flirty.  His aesthetic is best described as "clean, classic chic but conceptual."

Wilford also loves soft, feminine looks as portrayed by designers such as Lanvin, Chanel and Roberto Cavali.  When working, he takes direction well in order to achieve the goal of the project while putting his own touch when necessary.
