Spiro Mantzouris, a creative Fashion Stylist with extensive project experience from concept to development; including styling, designing, photo shooting with a great eye for fashion. Currently the Brand Ambassador at Teen Vogue magazine. His adventures are reflected in his clothing which he describes as rock, funky and eclectic. Parsons is a huge chapter in his life.  “They helped me understand that styling can’t be taught even if you have the greatest teachers on the planet. You have to be born with it”.
Spiro is all over the place from outfit to outfit and uses his clothing to express how he feels. Usually, he loves to wear jeans and feel comfy. Two things greatly affect his style: mood and affect. His mood inspires the outfit choices he makes daily but more importantly, he considers what affect he wants his outfit to have for the day, situation, or event. Then he goes on to dress accordingly. “Today’s outfit is the outfit I love to wear mostly when we have a photo-shoot—ripped baggy jeans, a black knitted blouse, this gorgeous jacket—a gift from Patricia Fields’s private collection, ankle boots and my favorite hat”.
For me, fashion helps you express ‘yourself’ and therefore it should always be based on what you find interesting. “I’ve always been an aesthetic person, extremely picky about details”. Fashion should be seen as something that represents a rhythm but the steps we choose to move to the music with should be our own; we should move freely. Because seriously, nothing is as refreshing as seeing someone walk down the street in their own little world of awesomeness. Remember fashion is constantly fleeting while style is forever. Put down those trend enslaved zombie hands and become an admirable masterpiece.
