Sam Saboura

YouBeauty Style Expert

Sam Saboura has made his mark as a top stylist, fashion expert, and as television’s original makeover authority. He believes that fashion and style should be approachable, unintimidating and easy to understand—as much for the real person as for the high-profile celebrity.

Saboura launched his professional career as the personal shopper at the famed Fred Segal, L.A.’s most exclusive specialty store. For several years, he remained Hollywood’s best-kept secret, dressing many of the world’s most visible stars—including Sarah Jessica Parker, Jennifer Aniston, Jude Law and Brad Pitt—who came to rely on his extraordinary eye and impeccable sense of style. 

In 2003, he joined the cast of ABC’s “Extreme Makeover.” As the breakout star and host of this hit series, he led an elite team of professionals who transformed the looks—and lives—of individuals throughout the country.  With his warm personality and tough-love approach to self-improvement, Saboura quickly established himself as one of television’s leading style experts, endearing him to millions of fans worldwide. “Extreme Makeover” remains an international television sensation, continuing to air in more than 100 countries.

Saboura frequently brings his expansive knowledge of fashion to the red carpet during award-show season. His charismatic and intelligent commentary has entertained and educated audiences during the Academy Awards, the Emmys, the Golden Globes, the SAG Awards, the Grammys, the American Music Awards, and on E! News Daily. He has also appeared as a style contributor and expert on “Rachael Ray,” “Good Morning America,” “The Tyra Banks Show,” “EXTRA,” “CW Now,” “Ultimate Style” and “The Fashion Team,” and was the resident style expert on “TLC’s Real Simple Real Life.”

Saboura’s practical style tips and expert advice regularly appear online and in national publications, including Life and Style, Us Weekly, People, InStyle, Cosmopolitan, Glamour, Marie Claire, Real Simple, Redbook, Life Magazine, USA Today, the Chicago Tribune, the Chicago Sun-Times, the Boston Globe, the New York Post and The New York Times.

In 2005, Clarkson Potter, the lifestyle imprint of Random House, published his best-selling book, Sam Saboura’s “Real Style: Style Secrets for Real Women with Real Bodies,” which has recently been translated into Chinese and Russian. A companion workbook, “My Real Style: A Makeover Journal,” was released the following year.

Saboura can currently be seen on “My OWN Time,” OWN’s new series of interstitials, and as the host of AOL’s “My Body, My Style.” He is at work on a new book, remains in high demand as a personal stylist for celebrities, and works extensively as a freelance wardrobe designer, brand spokesperson and host. Saboura is delighted to announce the re-launch of his clothing line, Styled by Sam Saboura, on Shop NBC this fall.
