Our founder, Kate Newman, is from Oklahoma City and has 25 years of retail experience. Before starting Style Assembly, she worked as a wholesale account executive for Loro Piana in NYC, and served as a buyer & store manager of several women's boutiques in Fayetteville, AR and Oxford, MS. Drawing from her extensive experience, Kate carefully hand-selects Style Assembly's brands to ensure her clients look great and feel fabulous while also keeping in mind her customer's lifestyle. As a mother of two young boys, Woods (8) & Hayes (5), she knows first hand how to incorporate style that functions with everyday life. She teaches fashion merchandising at Ole Miss and mentors students who have career goals within the fashion industry. She has a B.S. in Apparel & Textiles with a Fashion Retail emphasis from the University of Alabama.
Style Assembly loves being a part of Oxford and the Ole Miss community, and our proud corporate sponsors of the Grove Collective & The Vaught Society! Learn more about the Oxford Square and things to do in Oxford, MS here.
