The Stylist Behind Young Hollywood's Coolest Looks
'Even when I think my schedule is chill, it usually isn't,' stylist Jared Ellner says from his home base of Los Angeles, where he's just returned after a stint in Europe. For the past few weeks, he's been juggling a slate of overlapping international projects, including the wardrobe for A new class of young creatives is driving entertainment forward: YouTube wunderkind-turned-entrepreneur Guel Sener/Thom Browne Molly Gordon in Thom Browne. A self-proclaimed fashion nerd who grew up in suburban New Jersey, Ellner fed his obsession by taking sewing lessons and studying both fashion and art history. He enrolled at Parsons for fashion design, where he built his stamina for sleepless working nights. After college, he took an assistant gig at the now-defunct Garage magazine. The first shoot he styled solo featured Chamberlain; about a year later, her publicist called to ask if he'd consider working with her full-time. Ellner has a track record of taking a client from fashion newbie to front-row fixture. A prime example is Chamberlain, who signed on as a Louis Vuitton ambassador—a first for a YouTube-native talent—in 2019. The two worked together on a handful of projects before her first Met Gala in 2021. 'Things got much more serious after that,' he recalls. (They are so close that Chamberlain modeled Ellner's self-titled fashion line when it launched this past fall.) Dimitrios Kambouris // Getty Images Sabrina Carpenter in vintage Bob Mackie. Sennott was his second client, a connection made by their mutual friend (and her Shiva Baby co-star) Gordon. He styled Sennott for the movie's premiere—her first time working with a stylist. 'We were so green, and now she's a Balenciaga [campaign star],' he says. Ellner's encyclopedic fashion knowledge informs his work, and he's unafraid to drop an archival reference—a styling tactic that has sparked heated discourse among fans online. 'I think people are rightfully fatigued by it, so it's a balance of figuring out when it feels authentic, impactful, and useful, and when it feels like a crutch,' he explains. His favorite nod to the past thus far? Guts , and a year later, Carpenter wore a look from his fall 1994 show for New Year's Eve. Courtesy of Jared Ellner Stylist Jared Ellner. Styling is intimate and requires intense vulnerability, so when it comes to Ellner's clients, the lines often blur between the personal and professional. 'I am so comfortable and productive with Jared, because the foundation of our relationship is friendship rather than business,' Chamberlain says of their partnership. 'We are not afraid to disagree and voice our opinions, because we trust the bond we have, which allows us to truly collaborate.' Gordon echoes this sentiment, saying, 'Jared is so giving, warm, and kind, but he has a cutting honesty that I trust 100 percent.' 'The sweetest part of the job is that all of these people feel comfortable allowing me into such personal parts of their physicality, their image, and their communication of themselves to the world,' Ellner says. With his long-term clients, he enjoys helping to curate an overall image that goes beyond just a year or two of looks. 'The balance of styling is keeping everybody in their zone while also allowing the freedom to experiment and be a different person for a day, without feeling inconsistent with their personal brand,' he explains. A recent moody turn he's proud of is Chamberlain's Oscar after-party look, which might just be his favorite: a Gareth Cattermole // Getty Images Another important through line for Ellner's clients? While they're all serious talents, they don't take themselves too seriously. 'There are a lot of people who would not be comfortable taking a risk or doing anything even slightly off-kilter for a major moment,' he says. 'But all my girls—they're fearless.'

Runner who died in crash took up sport after fraud charge in US, inquest told
Chief financial officer Stephen Chamberlain was crossing a road between two parts of a bridleway when he was struck by a Vauxhall car that had crested a humpback bridge. The 52-year-old was an associate of Mr Lynch, who died after the Bayesian superyacht sank off the coast of Sicily on August 19 last year. Mr Chamberlain sustained a traumatic head injury in the collision on the A1123 near Stretham, Cambridgeshire, on August 17 last year. The injury was deemed unsurvivable and his life support was withdrawn three days later. Both Mr Chamberlain and Mr Lynch were cleared of a fraud charge in June last year following a trial at a federal court in San Francisco, California. Mr Chamberlain's widow Karen Chamberlain said in a statement that her husband got involved in running after he was charged with fraud. 'He discovered it helped him mentally stay calm and focus on what was ahead,' said Mrs Chamberlain, in a statement read by lawyer Sally Hobson, representing Mr Chamberlain's family. She said her husband would 'meticulously spend hours planning his routes' and competed in ultra-distance races. He was 'safety conscious', she said, and he would wear one earbud but leave the other ear free. 'That was no exception on the day – his other earbud was left at home,' Mrs Chamberlain said. She said he had been home from the US for two months and was 'making up for lost time, enjoying getting his life back'. She said that on the day of the collision he had planned to run 17 miles, starting in Ely and ending in Longstanton, Cambridgeshire. He was just over six miles into his run when he was struck by a car. The coroner directed that the female driver of the car should not be named at Tuesday's hearing in Alconbury Weald, Cambridgeshire. The driver said, in a statement summarised by area coroner Caroline Jones, that as she 'approached the bridge she proceeded down the incline' and a man 'suddenly emerged into the road'. She said she saw Mr Chamberlain 'looking to his left away from her and only looked to his right just before the collision'. She said she had 'braked hard and steered to the nearside', but 'he was too close' and the front offside of the vehicle collided with him. She said she had been driving within the 60mph speed limit, had been on her way to a shop in Newmarket, Suffolk and had 'no time pressure', the coroner said. Motorbike rider Grahame Cornwall, who witnessed the collision, said in a statement that Mr Chamberlain was thrown 'approximately 15 feet' up in the air. 'In his opinion the driver wouldn't have seen anything until she was on top of the rise (of the bridge) and wouldn't have had a chance to stop,' the coroner said. 'He said the entire incident must have been a matter of seconds.' Police forensic collision investigator Pc Ian Masters said it was 'not an ideal crossing point by any stretch of the imagination'. Asked by the coroner if it was his view that it was not an avoidable collision, Mr Masters replied: 'Yes, that's correct.' The coroner recorded a conclusion that Mr Chamberlain died as the result of a road traffic collision. She said she shared the concerns of the family that the humpback bridge is an 'irredeemable barrier' to visibility for pedestrians and other road users. She said she would write to Cambridgeshire County Council as the highways authority to request further information before deciding whether a report to help prevent future deaths was necessary. Mr Chamberlain's daughter Ella said in a statement to the inquest that her father was the 'perfect role model in every way'. His son Teddy said in a statement: 'He was the glue of our family, always ready with an answer.' 'The mental and physical strength he showed was beyond anything I could imagine,' he said. He added that he was the 'greatest dad I could ever have asked for and I'm so proud to be his son'. Mr Chamberlain's father, Grenville Chamberlain, told the inquest: 'Steve was very well respected in every walk of his life. 'His funeral was attended by 500 people.' Mr Chamberlain was the co-defendant in a US trial alongside Mr Lynch, where both men were cleared last year of conducting a massive fraud over the sale of software company Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard (HP) in 2011. HP acquired Cambridge-based Autonomy, founded by Mr Lynch in 1996, for 11 billion dollars (£8.35 billion) but later wrote down its value by 8.8 billion dollars (£6.68 billion) and asked the US justice department to investigate fraud. Mr Chamberlain, a former vice-president of finance at the company, was accused of artificially inflating Autonomy's revenues and making false and misleading statements to auditors, analysts and regulators in 2018. Both he and Mr Lynch were found not guilty of the charge in June last year following a trial at a federal court in San Francisco. In a statement outside court, read by lawyer Elena Abraham, the family said they 'still have questions unanswered'. 'We will be inviting the police to refer the case to the Crown Prosecution Service for consideration,' the statement said. Mrs Chamberlain said outside court that after her husband was cleared he 'came home and we just had our lives ahead'. 'Steve, his first thing was 'we've got to make memories for the kids and family and friends, we've just now got to do lots of things to make memories'', she said. 'And very sadly they were taken away from us.'

Mike Lynch colleague Stephen Chamberlain hit by car while running, which he took up after fraud case
A businessman who died after being hit by a car while out running had taken up the sport after he was charged with fraud in the US alongside a tech billionaire, an inquest has heard. Stephen Chamberlain, 52, died from a "traumatic head injury" at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge three days after being hit on the A1123 in Stretham, Cambridgeshire, in August 2024. He was an associate of tech tycoon Mike Lynch, who died just days beforehand when his superyacht, the Bayesian sank off the coast of Sicily. Mr Chamberlain was crossing a road between two parts of a bridleway when he was struck by a car that had crested a humpback bridge. In a statement to the inquest, his daughter Ella described her father as the "perfect role model in every way", while his son Teddy said he showed mental and physical strength "beyond anything I could imagine" and he was "so proud to be his son".
