Hello, I am a Professional Wardrobe Stylist. I pride myself on serving my client’s needs. My fashion journey started 40 years ago as a Men’s Tailor downtown St. Paul Dayton’s and from there I opened my own Tailor Shop. I was introduced to J.Hilburn, a brand built with my client’s style in mind, not trends, not disposable, but classic, sophisticated and top- notch quality and that speaks volumes in today’s fast fashion. Building thoughtfully curated wardrobes for individuals is what I specialize. Every client has a unique set of needs and I’ve made it my purpose to find the right fit to inspire my clients to express their personal style. With 40+ years of experience and over a 1,000 individuals styled, I’ve been able to establish a process guaranteed to help you look and feel your absolute best.

Denise went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure I was looking spiffy for the wedding day. The quality products and the unbelievable fit were just half of the amazing experience. Denise was professional, polite, and a pleasure to work with. Would highly recommend her services for anyone who’s looking for the best fitting, highest quality clothing they’ll ever own in their lives.
Denise has done a fabulous job helping me with my wardrobe. She understands her colors and she pays attention to detail. She has become more than just a stylist she has become a friend.
Denise was very professional to work with. She had a great balance of making great suggestions and recommendations while also taking into consideration personal preference and style. In addition she was great with communication and the one small sizing issue we ran into she resolved extremely quickly. I’d definitely recommend working with Denise. Great experience and will continue to work with her.
As a Retired Master Tailor
My SUPERPOWERS are mixing, matching and combining curated comfortable wardrobes that will make you love walking into your closet.
Let’s begin…
My Story
As a retired master tailor with 40 + years of experience, I bring unparalleled expertise to my role as a stylist. My journey began at Dayton’s St. Paul after studying Apparel Arts, where I mastered tailoring for everything from men’s suits to women’s evening gowns.
Years of tailoring instilled in me three essential principles: precision, fit, and quality. Precision ensures every detail counts, from the perfect stitch to a complete, polished wardrobe. A tailored fit transforms how clients look and feel, while an understanding of premium fabrics, from fine wools to luxurious silks, allows me to guide clients toward garments that blend durability with elegance.
After years of women asking if I could help them find custom clothing solutions, I am thrilled to announce that I now represent Midnight Oil Collection, a custom women’s clothier. This new venture allows me to offer the same attention to detail and commitment to quality to women, creating bespoke wardrobes that embody sophistication and confidence.
