Micaela Erlanger: Stylist and Recent Harvard Grad

Micaela Erlanger is a stylist and best-selling author. Micaela grew up loving fashion and styling, and followed that passion to Parsons School of Design, where she earned a degree in Strategic Design and Management. After graduating into an economy during a recession, Micaela hustled for experience, freelancing for movie shoots and fashion magazines before landing a full-time job with the iconic stylist Annabel Tollman. Tollman grew to become Micaela’s mentor, but after her untimely death in 2013, Micaela struck out on her own. After a successful partnership with her first client, Michelle Dockery, she began working with Lupita Nyong’o during her awards season run for 12 Years a Slave. Immediately, Micaela was topping The Hollywood Reporter’s list of most powerful stylists. Over the next decade, she grew her client list to include other A-listers like Meryl Streep and Kelly Clarkson, moved into private and bridal styling, wrote a book, and so much more. In 2020, she decided she wanted a change, so she applied (and was accepted) to Harvard Business School’s Program for Leadership Development. She graduated with an Executive MBA this past April and is now figuring out what she’ll do next. She’s creating her second life as we speak!
