Pushing the lines of men’s fashion, and looking to create change in the realm of menswear, Colin has pursued his career in the fashion industry for the last ten years. Starting as an intern working at New York Fashion Week with a PR agency helping coordinate the season finale 'Project Runway' fashion show, Colin immediately fell in love with the high fashion world, and began pursuing the world of fashion styling. With a drive to push boundaries and redefine conventions, Colin dove headfirst into the competitive New York fashion scene.
Looking to create something out of nothing, Colin co-founded Risk Magazine along with co-founder Pavel Denisenko, with the hopes of carving a path forward in the industry. A simple passion project turned into a full scale production, as a niche was found and created, with a focus on out of the box menswear, forward and bold styling, and a risque reputation living up to its name. Through Risk, Colin pushed boundaries and redefined menswear aesthetics, solidifying his name as an innovative force in the industry.
Risk Magazine has now been successfully circulating digitally for the last 8+ years, along with 5 print issues distributed in the US & abroad.
Once his editorial fashion resume had been built, Colin branched off into the world of personal, red carpet, and celebrity styling. Looking to bring his forward approach to menswear to the red carpet, his styling works have been on the carpets of The Academy Awards, British Fashion Council Awards, Grammy Awards, Emmy Awards, along with publications such as InStyle & Hollywood Reporter.
With his expertise in editorial fashion, Colin was ready to take on the exciting challenge of styling for high-profile celebrity events. He aimed to bring a fresh, innovative perspective on menswear to the traditionally conservative domain of red carpet fashion.
Colin's signature taste and keen eye for fashion resulted in his celebrity clients appearing on the red carpets of renowned events like the Oscars, Grammys, and Emmys in head-turning, avant-garde ensembles that made major impressions. His menswear looks blended both classic elegance and modern daring, creating unforgettable sartorial moments.
His work with A-list male celebrities set exciting new standards for innovative menswear in high-profile, black-tie settings.
“There is no reward without RISK.”
