Janna Chin

Prop & Wardrobe Stylist

How did you get into the industry?

I met people in this industry when I was studying abroad in Greece, who provided my introduction to the photography/advertising community. After graduating college with a degree in International Relations, I moved to London, where I was taken on by Vivienne Westwood, working in her press office on her runway shows and media. I began studying sewing whilst at Westwood and continued after I moved home. In Minneapolis, I have worked on assorted advertising projects as a wardrobe, prop and set stylist.

What book, movie read/seen recently you would recommend and why?

I loved Cunk on Earth, the Afterparty, Sex Education, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Ted Lasso and Lessons in Chemistry, lately. I enjoy humorous stories.


Are you a traveler or a homebody? Why?

I love to travel and meet up with friends/family around the world. My step father was Scottish, but born/raised in Buenos Aires, so I grew up with family/friends around the world and the travel bug hit early. I love discovering amazing restaurants & shops and experiencing different ways of doing things. My kids did French immersion school and have grown up exploring the world, as well.
