Two years ago when NZ Eco Fashion Week was launched, I was surprised when an email arrived from fashion stylist - Nora Swann of Kila's Style. She enquired if it would be possible to be involved with the eco runway's inaugural show and went on to explain she often helped woman from all walks of life up style their wardrobes which often included shopping tours to local thrift stores.
That began a relationship that has developed into a strong friendship. Nora never ceases to surprise with her fresh up styled fashion perspective for every person she helps to style. Woman literally sparkle after a session with her and they walk away feeling youthful, confident and totally transformed on the outside and a lot on the inside too.

Nora started her career as a Stylist in 2011 after winning a nation wide competition - 'Who wants to be a fashion stylist?' run by Cleo Magazine.
She has since gone on to develop a strong resume of up styling gigs in both New Zealand and Australia - mainly using finds from thrift stores to demonstrate that an up to date, made to work personal wardrobe is possible for everyone. This concept helps woman from all walks of life find the ideal wardrobe for their lifestyle without fuss and the expensive price tag.
