Sam Saboura has made his mark as a top stylist and as television’s original makeover authority. He believes that style should be approachable, unintimidating, and easy to understand—as much for the real person as for the high-profile celebrity.

Saboura admits to embarking on his quest for good style around the age of eight, experimenting with makeovers on anyone who’d stand still long enough. He launched his professional career as the personal shopper at the famed Fred Segal, LA’s most exclusive specialty store. For several years, he remained Hollywood’s best-kept secret, dressing many of the world’s most visible stars—including Sarah Jessica Parker, Jennifer Aniston, The Osbournes and Brad Pitt—who came to rely on his extraordinary eye and impeccable sense of style.
