STYLIST WITH THE X FACTOR

STYLIST Angie Smith made her name by dressing Dannii Minogue for The X Factor. Now she dresses Holly for This Morning — and regularly hits the spot with High Street outfits which sell out almost instantly.

She also works with Christine Lampard, Amanda Holden and Rochelle Humes — and is helping the Spice Girls with outfits for their reunion tour.

Ms Smith started out as a humble ‘style assistant’ on FHM magazine then began styling celebrities for fashion shoots and offering personal fashion consultations. Her inspirations are Emmanuelle Alt and Carine Roitfeld — the current and ex editors of French Vogue.

In an interview, she said: ‘I always liked giving my friends make-overs and seeing how great they felt if I chose their outfit and did their make-up before we went out. I didn’t even know what a stylist was before I went to do work experience on a magazine.’

She was an early champion of London-based designer Emilia Wickstead. Holly said of Angie: ‘I’ve learnt from her. I’ve learnt that with all of my clothes. I’m like a little sponge, it becomes more natural after you have been doing it for a long time.’

Angie shared photos of the journey to Australia on Instagram, of her and make-up artist Patsy O’Neill sharing glasses of champagne in business class. There was a rare faux pas this week when Holly was dressed in a sweater with a logo on it — which UTV had to blur out lest it count as brand advertising.

Holly shares snaps of her outfits and where she got them with her 4.4million Instagram followers. Her outfit on Wednesday included a €160 shirt by edgy label Ba&sh, and a €34.37 Madewell denim miniskirt.
