Aya Kanai wants to get into your head when she styles you. As the Chief Fashion Director of six different magazines, she has to understand the different celebs that she styles as well as the different demographics that the magazines cater to.

She talks about dressing like a tomboy, why you won’t see her in heels at work, the hours of work that goes into creating a single photo, working with Cardi B and a then unknown Alexander Wang, banning fur in magazines, sustainable fashion, passing on lessons of kindness to her daughter.
