I’m Tekla Tanko, an international fashion stylist with over 15 years of experience across Milan, Madrid, Shanghai, Beijing, and Budapest.
I’ve styled everything from editorial campaigns and magazine covers to music videos, commercials, and red-carpet looks, and spent six years as a Fashion Market Editor at InStyle Magazine Hungary.
Through my work, I’ve learned that true style starts with self-awareness: knowing who you are, so that dressing becomes effortless. That belief inspired me to create NonFormEdit, a space where I share my book, workbooks, and upcoming courses to help you discover and define your personal style.
