FASHION PROFILES: Wardrobe by Will - Stylist
We first encountered Wilfree at a Vogue Club event in New York City, where he stood out in a khaki-colored duster and matching hat. As he approached our group, his warm smile and magnetic energy immediately made us feel at ease.
Known for his incredible work with celebrities such as Cher, Selena Gomez, and Kim Kardashian—whether through advertising campaigns or runway shows—Wilfree is not just a stylist, but an influential force in the fashion world. We were fortunate to have the opportunity to sit down with him for an exclusive interview at the iconic Spring Studios.

Our species evolved to value beauty and balance as a sign of health, power, security, and leadership. If you think about it twice, your personal image directs and reflects your goals, it moves society. That’s why Wilfree talks about the right shape, texture and colors with his clients due, and fortunately, all humans are different to each other. Extrapolating these principles into commercial campaigns through photography and video productions makes it imperative to have a person with his skills.
