Welcome to The Scoop, a weekly e mail sequence by which I quiz trend insiders on the tales of the week.
This week’s visitor is stylist to the (actuality) stars, Modesto Abreu, whose roster of (previous and current) purchasers consists of Vicki Gunvalson, Meredith Marks, Madison LeCroy, Alexia Nepola, Lindsay Hubbard, Dolores Catania, Brynn Whitfield and Katie Ginella. All names that can imply loads in case you are a Bravohead.
Modesto’s storyline started about 4 years in the past, when he and his companion, Coulson Bingham, put collectively a private buying enterprise. One in every of their purchasers occurred to be associates with former New York housewife Brynn Whitfield, who, in flip, requested if they may type her for her first Watch What Occurs Reside with Andy Cohen. They put Brynn in a purple Home of CB costume, and a few days later, he was additionally dressing Southern Appeal’s Madison LeCroy for BravoCon.
This 12 months, Modesto started working with Actual Housewives of Orange County (RHOC)’s Vicki Gunvalson (who actually is the OG housewife) for her return to the franchise in addition to her half in Actual Housewives Final Women Journey — each exhibits are at present airing. However he additionally labored with some new blood on different franchises, and that’s in the present day’s scoop.
Hello Modesto, what’s the news?
I’m working with two new housewives. I can’t share their names but, however one will be a part of Actual Housewives of New York (RHONY) and the opposite is a brand new Actual Housewives of New Jersey (RHONJ) housewife. Thus far, I’ve executed confessional appears to be like for each of them and the massive solid photograph for each cities.
New Jersey is understood for robes and glitter — they aren’t identified for his or her trend. However this time round, they actually tried to do one thing fashion-forward and fairly vampy. Bravo didn’t need any huge robes; they requested for attractive brief clothes or separates as a substitute, and plenty of black, gold, and leather-based. It’s such a departure for Bravo, who are likely to need the ladies in neon and sequins — you often have to actually struggle for a black look.
My consumer and I went for an incredible gold corset, a mini skirt, and big Christian Louboutin sneakers. I believe they need to be saying all of it quickly. I additionally heard from somebody engaged on Jersey that we would lastly get the Housewives holding one thing.
