About Gab Saper:

Gab Saper is a personal stylist who helps you uncover the coolest, hottest, best version of yourself through what you’re putting on your body.

Drawing on her experiences in Fashion Merchandising, media, and tech; she helps you dress in a way that commands respect at work, turns every head at the restaurant and makes you the envy of every mom (or aunt!) on the playground.

One of the primary ways she does this is by flipping typical style advice on its head. She’ll never advise you to keep up with the trends and she believes deeply that horizontal stripes are for everyone.

Gab lives in Greenwich village with her husband and children…and by children, she means handbags. Some of her favorite things include an empty inbox, spicy margaritas and laughing out loud to a podcast. She was once featured in The New York Times for her very tiny, very organized apartment.
