Calyann Barnett, Dwyane Wade’s wardrobe stylist, answers 7 Questions
Published at | Updated atEvery week I’m interviewing fascinating people in our community, nation and around the world!
The idea came from a Facebook commenter who saw a video of me and my family floating down the river in Island Park. The person said I should turn the tables and interview my dad (Nate Eaton) – so I did and the rest is history!
Today I’m talking with Calyann Barnett – the personal stylist for retired NBA player Dwyane Wade. She has been a stylist and creative director for 15 years and has worked with clients including Usain Bolt, the greatest sprinter of all time, Utah Jazz star Donovan Mitchell, Nicki Minaj and more.
I asked Calyann the following questions before showing her my awesome new shoes:
- How did you start your career in styling and what exactly is your job?
- Who are some of the clients you’ve worked with?
- What’s the coolest fashion show you’ve been in or attended?
- What’s your favorite part about your job?
- My favorite colors are pink and blue. What’s yours and why?
- What do you like about being a mom?
- Have you ever been to Idaho or styled someone from here?
BONUS QUESTIONS
- Can you tell us a cool story about someone famous you work with?
- What’s been your most challenging styling job?
- Can you give me a few fashion tips?
You can follow Calyann on Instagram and Twitter.
