Julie Ragolia

Julie Ragolia is an internationally acclaimed fashion stylist and creative consultant, known for her intellectually driven, documentary-style approach to fashion imagery. With a signature emphasis on deconstructed tailoring, imperfection and emotional nuance, Ragolia has built a career that spans editorial, runway, campaign and red carpet styling, earning her a reputation as one of the industry’s most thoughtful visual narrators.

A regular contributor to global fashion weeks in New York, Milan and Paris, Ragolia has played a pivotal role at Zegna since 2016, working closely with artistic director Alessandro Sartori as a consultant and lead stylist. Her work with Zegna includes the Autumn/Winter 2025 and Spring/Summer 2025 campaigns, shot by Tanya and Zhenya Posternak, where her refined yet undone aesthetic shapes the house’s contemporary identity. Her editorial credits include Another Magazine, W, Fantastic Man, L’Uomo Vogue, WSJ, Re-Edition and Document Journal. Ragolia has styled some of Hollywood’s most compelling actors, including Riz Ahmed, Jake Gyllenhaal, Brad Pitt, Michael Fassbender and Charlie Hunnam. 

Beyond celebrity and fashion industry acclaim, Ragolia’s presence in the style world has its own legacy: she appeared on the cover of “The Sartorialist”’s 2009 book, an early nod to her distinctive personal style. In 2022, she won the Motion Photography Styling award at the Agents Club Awards for her work on Jacob Sutton’s campaign for “Nowness.”
