Fashion Gatekeeper NINObrand Stylists

NINObrand is a lifestyle brand for discerning women who desire something richer than the modern off-the-rack experience.

Once accepted, Private Stylists will receive an agreement outlining sales commissions, bonuses, and requirements. Stylists will then be trained and mentored, and embraced into the NINObrand family.

For Trunk Shows, Events, and Appointments not held at a NINObrand location, Private Stylists simply arrange to receive or pickup the merchandise required. Merchandise not sold is then simply returned.

Most importantly, NINObrand wishes to encourage creativity and the expression of each Private Stylist’s unique background. Given the versatility of the Collection, there are no limits to the events, initiatives, and promotional efforts possible.

I Forgive You Fashion Installation

This May, Bela is showing at James Olivery Gallery's "Anahata," a multimedia art experience alongside photography John Singletary. 

"I Forgive You" is a limited collection of NINObrand garments and larger than life art pieces made entirely of Tyvek, a patented, industrial fiber.

The collection juxtaposes spirituality against the technical nature of the material. Handwritten mantras and intricate imagery decorate the starch white garments, giving each piece the essence of a Tibetan prayer flag or a  Japanese prayer plaque.

The opening reception at James Oliver Gallery boasts circus performers along with the usual array of sips and nibbles for an evening you won’t want to miss...

RSVP only.
