I always have the utmost respect for sibling duos who are also professional partners. Stylists Chloe and Chenelle Delgadillo (known in the industry as simply Chloe & Chenelle) dont just make it work, theyre dominating. Their client list reads like a whos who of the coolest people in Hollywood, spanning mega-stars like Olivia Rodrigo, Rosalia, and Kim Kardashian, to It-girls like Addison Rae and Devon Lee Carlson, and they have mastered the art of pairing their signature edgy, vintage-inspired style with their clients personalities.
I caught up with Chloe and Chenelle hot off weekend one of Coachella, where they styled Willow Smith and singer Rauw Alejandro for a surprise performance with his fiancé Rosalia. The pair had teamed up with Olay Body for the weekend and were ready to spill all their summer style secrets.
Ahead are seven fashion lessons I learned from personal stylists Chloe and Chenelle.

Dont Forget Your Skin Prep

Chloe:"Weve noticed a lot, especially in the last couple of years when we go to certain festivals or with our male clients when they dont have glam, theyre always asking for lotion or ways to prep their skin. So thats been a big part of [this partnership] coming into work and keeping the models, the talent, or anyone that were working with and their skin feeling hydrated. It was basically a perfect opportunity to have this partnership with Olays hyaluronic acid body wash and body lotion duo."
Chenelle:"We care so much about our clients that we dont think about ourselves. But its nice to put ourselves first because the better we feel, the better we perform. Just like our clients, the better they feel, the better they like their outfits. Everyone always wants to have nourished skin, and so do we, so thats why it just felt like a natural collaboration [with Olay].

The Coachella Trends Well See All Summer
Chenelle:"I noticed everyone dressed a little bit more chill. And so I feel like the theme of Coachella and festival fashion was comfortable, chill, healthy, and glowing. Usually you see crazy outfits, I feel like it was more about your skin than any other year. So I feel like that will be a major trend, just feeling comfortable and confident.
Chloe:
"Comfortable, for sure."
Chenelle:"Y2K styling is still very, very in and trendy; its not going anywhere."

Think About Your Look Head to Toe
Chenelle:"Its everything—your glam, your skin, everything around it—those are all really good accessories too."
Chloe: "I see a lot more people going in on different hairstyles. Coloring their hair, stuff like that. And I think that plays a big part in it all together."

Dont Be Afraid to Experiment
Chenelle:"[When it comes to finding your style], its trial and error. I always say that you dont know until you try it."
Chloe: "But also stay true to who you are."
Chenelle: "You should never force a style just because someone else is wearing it. [But] trying different styles [is key]. Looking at inspiration... its fun to find who your inspirations are and not copy it, but use it as a guide."

Confidence Is the Best Accessory
Chenelle:"If you dont feel good in your skin and what youre wearing, it will show throughout the day. Especially for festival style: If youre not confident, and you walk out, youre in that look for so many hours. I think that number one is feeling comfortable because it affects your whole personality throughout the day."

Vintage Is King
Chenelle:"Were from [LA}, but we moved to Missouri — a small town in Missouri, not a city. So we didnt have stores. Our whole lives, we vintage shopped, and we went to thrift shops—the closest store was a thrift store. Chloe was crafty with all [her] clothes, I just found my pieces.
"But I think we really grew up doing it, so its very natural. And [we] just like the sustainability of [it] all. I think the biggest tip is to stay patient. Depop, Etsy, all of that is so easy now."

A No-Fail Summer Unifiorm
Chloe:"Skirts, sneakers, I love a good baggy short. Most importantly, make sure your skin is well hydrated, and youre good to go all summer."

The Project Theyre the Most Proud Of
Chenelle: "I feel like my most proud moments arent what were known for. Its the personal projects. We worked on a book with [photographer] Nadia Lee Cohen called Women. That was honestly just pure love, heart, and passion. It was less pressure. Working with that many women, and they were so happy to be there, the energy was amazing."
Chloe:"[They were] loving themselves, the skin that they were in. It was really cool seeing every type of person and female body. It was empowering for sure."
