GiGi Marin Biography
I’m a designer and personal stylist specialising in Red Carpet looks for events and everyday dressing. I love connecting my clients with their own unique style and bringing out their natural magnetic energy.
The traditional styling approach is to 'follow the rules to dress (and mostly hide) your body shape'. I believe there are no rules and celebrate the uniqueness of you, in your full magical glory. When what you're wearing is aligned with your natural energy, you'll show up with confidence and shine effortlessly.
My clients include actors, artists and people who are ready to break with tradition and share more of themselves through what they wear. I create unseen looks by combining contemporary design with found pieces (including rare vintage).
I also consult with couture fashion houses on the development of their collections and promotional photo shoots.
As an advocate for slow fashion, I also design my own collections (available at my store Gigi's Dressing Room in East London) and I lecture at London College of Fashion part of UAL.

GiGi’s is a slow fashion concept
What do you enjoy the most in the dressing room?
I'm driven by a belief that we deserve to feel good in and be excited by what we wear every day, while being able to care for the environment, I curate a range of clothes that are beautifully made in high quality fabrics for my slow fashion store in East London.
My stock of unique clothing is updated weekly and includes new, as new, my designs preordered to measure and high end vintage pieces.
Personal style is at the heart of what we offer. Together with my team, we'll guide you to create a wardrobe of pieces that light you up. My message is: Buy what you love; buy quality; and buy less. To enhance the feel-good factor, we offer tailored alterations to ensure the perfect fit. Our sustainable approach is underlined by offering high occasion pieces for hire.
Our occasion pieces have been seen at the world’s most dazzling events including The Oscars, the Brit Awards ,The Grammies, and the Cannes Film Festival. Customers refer to the experience of shopping and being styled by me as magical, joyful, and transformational.
Gigi’s Dressing Room is at: 104A Wood Street, London E17 3HX
ABOUT
THE
DRESSING ROOM
Personal Styling and Wardrobe Edits
​
I love to find out about the needs and desires of my clients. Whether it is informally when customers pop into the shop for a browse and a chat, or through personal styling consultations. Dressing is so personal and I start by actively listening to my clients to empower them to build a style that makes them feel confident, is practical, ecological and beautiful.
​
Following an initial chat, I will spend time gathering key pieces for you to try on during your next visit. I also offer wardrobe edits, where we can go through your closet with fresh eyes, editing and creating looks, mending and customising to make the most of what you already have. We will decide upon the key pieces needed to characterise your look. Once we have done so I can source strategic pieces that strengthen your wardrobe. Furthermore, on future visits to the Dressing Room, I will already have a good understanding of your style and will be best placed to help you to consolidate your wardrobe.
Upcycling and customisation
​
My desire to create something contemporary from vintage pieces has led me into customisation and upcycling. I have collaborated with seamstresses and designers to create jewellery and clothing but also with specific customers to make pieces work for them.
