BIOGRAPHY
Globally Renowned Costume Designer, Wardrobe Stylist & Professional Image Strategist
Angela Aaron transforms both stages and boardrooms through the psychology of visual storytelling. Her signature theatrical creations have recently graced Cirque Du Soleil's Mad Apple in Las Vegas, The Illusionists on Broadway, and Circus 1903 at London's West End and The Sydney Opera House, while her expertise in professional image strategy helps executives and entrepreneurs understand how their clothing choices either support or sabotage their career goals.
Drawing from years of character development and a passion for psychology, Angela bridges the gap between theatrical costume design and workplace wardrobe strategy. As a motivated public speaker, she reveals how the same principles that create compelling stage characters can be applied to crafting a powerful professional presence.
Her exceptional visual storytelling began in Europe's fashion scene, where she styled for Prague's premier modeling agencies before being tapped as Fashion Editor for Czech Esquire. Since making Los Angeles her creative base, Angela has translated her editorial eye across commercial campaigns, music videos, print advertising, and now executive consulting.
In 2011, Angela pivoted to theatrical production, launching a global design career that spans iconic venues from Sydney to London to Broadway. This unique foundation in both high-fashion editorial work and theatrical character creation gives her unparalleled insight into how visual choices communicate identity, authority, and authenticity.
Her meticulous approach blends technical precision with psychological understanding, whether crafting characters that elevate a production's narrative or helping professionals project confidence and competence through strategic wardrobe choices.
"I thrive on creating visual stories that resonate with audiences across cultural boundaries," says Aaron. "Whether I'm developing a character for the stage or helping a CEO understand their visual impact, my process involves drawing out the authentic essence that lives within each person. The collaborative magic of bringing creative visions to life—whether alongside world-class performers or ambitious professionals—is what drives my work."
