Hi, I'm Ivy Costa, owner of a Wardrobe & Style consulting firm in Cincinnati, Ohio. I discovered my passion for fashion at 18, working part-time at Anthropologie. After 12 years in retail, including owning my own boutique, I transitioned to personal styling at 30. Now, 12 years later, I run a successful business focusing on Personal Styling, Commercial Styling, Hospitality Consulting, and Corporate Consulting. I also co-own Sloane Boutique in downtown Cincinnati. My philosophy is simple: person first. I believe great style starts with truly understanding the individual. My work is about more than clothes—it's about helping people feel confident, authentic, and at home in their own skin.

From corporate consulting to personal styling, my “person first” philosophy helps clients uncover their unique style and feel confident—“I make you, you.”

I have neither the time nor the taste to style myself let alone build a wardrobe. Not only does Ivy find distinctive and interesting pieces, Ivy saves me money because she knows where to find comparable alternatives to high end labels without sacrificing aesthetics. Her expertise keeps me from making faulty purchases. From casual outfits I can wear to a party to impeccably tailored suits, Ivy has transformed my wardrobe into something current and unique. I don’t know where I’d be without her.

“Ivy was an essential part of our wedding team. She styled the entire bridal party with care, from coordinating dresses and custom jewelry to finding my dream shoes. She was there through fittings, hair, and makeup—and on the big day, made sure we all looked and felt our best. With Ivy, I could truly relax and enjoy every moment.”
