 Celebrity wardrobe stylist and designer April Roomet was born and raised in a West Philadelphia neighborhood known as “The Bottom,” but ever since her teens, she’s been moving on up.

Her big break came styling hip hop legends Dr. Dre, Eminem, and Snoop Dogg, and from that point on, the opportunities to stylistically collaborate and innovate started rolling in. After 20 years in the industry,  Roomet is known fro signature mix of vintage and high fashion, and responsible for dressing the likes of Nas and Big Sean.
