Ginevra Saraswathi Menon was born in Rome and raised in a multicultural environment, with an Indian-American father and Italian mother. When Menon was eighteen years old, she discovered her passion for styling, and after graduating from Istituto Marangoni’s London campus, Menon won the Diversity NOW! 2014 competition, presented by Arts Thread and i-D Magazine at London Graduate Fashion Week. Menon is continuing her studies with a Masters course in Styling at Polimoda in Florence. “I hope that in the next twelve months, with a broader knowledge of the industry – thanks also to the master course I am attending – I will succeed in assisting established stylists. My ultimate goal is to be able to do what I love.”
Menon worked with fellow Polimoda stylist, Giulia Grasso, who is also from Rome, where she graduated with a degree in International Law. In addition to her Law studies, Grasso cultivated her obsession with fashion, studying Visual Merchandising at the Rome Fashion Academy. She currently attends the Fashion Styling Master at Polimoda to deepen her creative and visual aesthetic.
