Asbjorg has been working in the European fashion industry
since 1992. During this time, and two university degrees
later, she has developed extensive experience within fashion
design, theory, textiles, retail and lecturing giving her
a uniquely holistic perspective and a fresh approach to
personal styling.
When Asbjorg returned to Denmark from
Italy, she completed a degree and started lecturing. In
1998, she opened her shop ‘Nudo nel Parco’
(Naked in the Park) offering a collection of Italian fashion
for men and women. Her personal styling business evolved
almost by accident as customers would return again and
again to receive personal style advice. Asbjorg did styling
jobs for TV and soon she had a loyal client base, including
news readers, politicians, dancers, artists and pop bands.
She says, ‘They came to me before
events and knew that I would have something for them and
be able to style them to look their best, even if the
event was their daily life. I would purchase things for
my shop with specific clients in mind and I was pleased
with my success rate’.
Alongside the shop, she kept on lecturing
and doing seminars and was often quoted and referred to
as an opinion maker on style in the Danish press.
In 2002 she moved to Henley-on Thames,
Oxfordshire. The demand for her services spread fast as
her British clients quickly recognised the same depth,
originality and flair that made Asbjorg such a hit in
Denmark. Now, after years of working as a personal stylist
in the UK, Asbjorg has her own unique insight into the
British fashion scene and an empathy with British women,
from our hang-ups and insecurities to our wildest stylish
hopes and dreams.
One very happy client said, ‘I
have never met anyone with such an energy, passion and
total commitment to her clients. Her intuition is spot
on, it’s like she can read your mind. She gets it
right for me every time’.
Asbjorg writes a monthly column
for the Henley Standard and publishes a regular newsletter.
