Cristina was born in Italy, where her lifelong love affair with fashion began almost as soon as she could walk. Raised in a family of gifted seamstresses, craftsmanship and elegance were part of her everyday world. She grew up surrounded by fabrics, needles, and the quiet artistry of women who understood how clothing could transform the way one feels.

Even as a pre-schooler, Cristina gravitated naturally toward beauty and style — fascinated by the lipstick testers in her mother’s friend’s boutique, and later playfully reinventing the makeup and garments in her mother’s fashion magazines with her beloved gel pens. Her earliest moment of sartorial awe came from the animated film Anastasia, mesmerised by the sweeping evening gown worn in the final scene — a moment that sealed her destiny.

At 21, Cristina moved to London, embracing the world of luxury retail with positions at Harrods and Hobbs London in Westfield Shepherd’s Bush. These experiences deepened her appreciation for refined tailoring, brand heritage, and the transformative power of impeccably curated style.

Life’s course shifted as she built her family, stepping into office roles to meet the practical demands of motherhood. But a recent, challenging (though thankfully non-life-threatening) illness prompted a profound realisation: life is too short not to pursue one’s calling.

In 2025, Cristina formally qualified as an Image Consultant — specialising in Colour Analysis, Face and Body Shape Analysis, and Personal Styling — uniting her lifelong passions with professional precision and expertise. Today, she brings together Italian sensibility, luxury experience, and heartfelt craftsmanship to curate style transformations that feel authentic, empowering, and exquisitely personal.

Cristina now lives in Windsor with her fiancé and their two daughters, continuing to redefine elegance through the lens of individuality.
