Killer Charges

Image courtesy of www.clipart.m-y-d-s.com

In a recent project, the chosen fashion stylist of this reassurance seeking endorser charged her client 1,000,000 PhP for a three day television commercial shoot that required the endorser to be in pajamas. The poor client had no choice but to give in to the hefty asking price of this stylist because she was the only choice of the said endorser.  

Do you know who this stylist is? Let me give you a clue. She shares the same name with the daughter of this heavy duty actress.

Please observe the guidelines in posting comments. If you need additional clues, I suggest that you follow micsylim on Twitter. Kindly continue to email your juicy stories to michaelsylim@gmail.com.

    1,000,000???? if she's that in demand and ala-Rachel Zoe level stylist she may ask that price... or maybe the artist that demands her have a cut on the stylist's fee.

    KATUKAYO: "heavy duty actress". alam na! Hahaha!

    STYLIST: Is this C na may kaharian who recently did a fashion spread with a gassy clothing brand na na-feature sa fashion section ng isang leading broadsheet?

    CELEBRITY: Grabe lang si endorser, magp-PJs lang pala nag-hire pa ng stylist. Dapat ako na lang ang binayaran niya ng isang milyon!

    May kilala ako stylist who's also now a model/endorser and her fee is around 1M rin. Ewan ko siya rin ito nasa blind item. hehe. Siya ba FP? I saw her one time at S&R i don't find her pretty! papansin mo siya dahil stylist siya ni ganito ganyan pero not her beauty/looks. she's just right. maganda lang siya pumorma and her voice sounds like a guy.

Then when I read this BI, parang naisip ko, bakit sila nasa Cebu Pacific, di ba nila afford mag PAL business class?

    P1MM is OA for someone like this BI - with that amount, client could have gotten better and known stylists.

    My guess is K dahil sa clues pero sana si J. I work for an ad agency and I can honestly say that many of the self proclaimed stylists here are a sham. Most of them are just people who started out in the biz as mga feeling fashionista. They only started getting jobs because they have the right connections and before you know it, "stylist" na daw sila. Ilan lang sa kanila ang may totoong training or background in fashion/makeup/styling for photo and tv. Ang mahal nila mag charge sa amin pero ang sasagwa naman ng mga style choices nila, at madalas limited dahil hindi magandang tignan on camera. Porquet pumunta ka sa New York o Paris ng dalawang linggo hindi ibig sabihin nun fashion guru ka na sa Pinas.

    It's not really a "useless service". Stylists are hired for their eye and taste. They know what works (and not just what looks good) -from editorial pages to commercial projects. They also act as sittings editor, guide the hair and makeup artists sometimes, collaborate with the photog and contribute to the overall look and feel of these projects.

    Although I agree that 1M is quite over the top for a 3 day shoot with minimal changes, since stylists usually base their fee on the number of layouts or outfits they have to put together.

    It's sad how the fee is a lot bigger than the amount of style and talent the stylist has. It says a lot about how gullible people can be.

    This is the stylist of the male celebrity who has been getting a lot projects lately from advertisers. I hear this is not the first time she charged a ridiculous amount. Imagine, charging a fee thrice that of a commercial director? Not even the most in demand stylist in the country charges near that rate.

    I think the male celeb has also something to do with this bloated fee. Matches his bloated ego.

    i know her and i was able to work with her before. she seemed nice naman and her bf at that time was a photographer who's into frisbee. at that time she seemed ok naman, at ang alam ko minimal lang yung asking fee ng bf photographer nya tas parang libre nalang ata styling fee nya? though come to think of it, di naman sya halos nagstyle hahaha. it was for a local company's photo shoot. back then i think she mentioned she does styling for magazines like fhm, etc. that was back in 2008 or 2009 i think.

    she was nice. but hey, i met her at work and she knows our company's paying her so...

    the endorser is someone i met once sa cinema area ng ATC. this endorser also does "hide & seek" tuwing tanghali. ;)

    ang gusto kong malaman eh kung ano yung ineendorse hehe.
