"It's more interesting to have just a picture of a small detail - then you can dream all the rest around it.
Because when you see the whole thing, what is there to imagine?" -Dries Van Noten
Freelance Creative Director and Stylist Consultant Jenn Cranston has been honing her skills for the last sixteen years, after graduating from Ryerson University in Fashion Marketing in 1995. She’s been responsible for consulting with some of Canada’s top retailers in the sectors of Home Décor, Fashion, and Beauty, and after one look at the June 2010 issue of Canadian House and Home (where Cranston’s Lake Simcoe home was featured) – her aesthetic is absolutely jaw-dropping…and intoxicating. She’s a Marni aficionado, and has a sensible approach when it comes to utilizing accessories and jewelry: “I don’t wear a lot of jewelry, but when I do it’s more of a statement piece. I love anything from flea market finds to my more expensive pieces” states Cranston. But best of all, she’s utilized her clothes for multi-purposes, transcending the wedding aisle to society events – exhibit A: her Lanvin dress. “I bought this Lavin dress for a wedding where I was the maid of honor. It was great for the occasion but I have worn it a few more times to more casual events as well”. She’s a viable source on emerging aesthetics and tastes – so it’s no surprise she’s been scooped up by local and international brands and lend her skills to their unique platforms. We could use a weekend retreat to her plush white-based home right about…NOW.
