Highly talented Amsterdam-based stylist Simone Jay has an excellent understanding of trends. Maison et Objet Paris presented ‘Silence’ as one of the inspirations for 2017/2018, indicating a growing desire for silence and serenity amidst an overstimulated hyperactive visual world; Simone’s signature has long since been of a serene elegance.
For still life photographer Sigurd Kranendonk, Simone produced vegetables and backgrounds for a non commissioned series ‘Wintergreens’, and with Jelier & Schaaf Commercials she provided props and set dressing for an Andrelon Unilever commercial by JWT Amsterdam.
Her contribution to the restyling of the Rijksmuseum webshop was displayed on the Rijksmuseum homepage.
Simone is comfortable offering all aspects of the styling process, from generating ideas to producing mood boards, buying and sourcing props and on-set propping. She is a versatile stylist experienced in both interior and lifestyle photography as well as chosing wardrobe for high-end fashion clients.

Simone Jay has a long standing career as a stylist.
She has worked for all major Dutch companies and has now been commissioned by The Rijksmuseum Amsterdam to create styling ideas for the Rijksmuseum webshop products. The Rijksmuseum webshop sells a variety of products, including scarfs, china, jewellery, playmobil, reproductions, vases, all related to a specific theme, like Rembrandt, the Night Watch, Vermeer, Delft Blue, Van Gogh, Impressionism, Stills, Asia, Marten Oopjen.
