Stylist Karla Welch Reveals the Lesson She Learned From Justin Bieber

Karla also praised Tracee for her red-carpet risk-taking, noting that she “is one of the most stylish women in the world—she comes from one of the most stylish women in the world with her mother Diana Ross.”

“It’s an amazing collaborative relationship because we both love fashion so much,” she continued. “She breathes fashion.”

For those looking to emulate her celebrity clients’ fearlessness, Karla said it’s not about how much you spend on clothes, but how it makes you feel when you wear them.  

“I believe in the power of being well dressed and it doesn’t mean spending a ton of money,” she said. “It’s the energy you give to people. Some people might laugh and say, ‘Oh my god, it’s a dress!’ But it’s more than a dress, it’s how you feel when you put on that dress.”

Put simply, she added, “Even if you say you don’t care, you have that one outfit you put on and it gives you spark—that’s the spark you give to the world.”
