Stylist Jamie Azzopardi’s Outfit Allegedly Valued at $26,000 – but There’s a Calculating Conundrum

Celebrity stylist Jamie Azzopardi has raised eyebrows by making the dubious claim that their outfit is worth $26,000.

The fashion guru, who uses they/them pronouns, recently featured in an episode of the TikTok series What People Wear AU, and told the host their getup was worth big bucks.

‘I am wearing Ralph Lauren, Veronika Maine, Onitsuka. The most expensive piece in my wardrobe is probably this bag, it’s worth about €28,000 (AU$46,250),’ they said.

‘The whole outfit is worth about $26,000.’

Jamie also wore designer sunglasses and statement jewellery, as they enthusiastically described their extravagant getup.

However, celebrity watchdog account Influencer.Updates.Au was quick to challenge the bold price claim and said that a Google search of the products they wore told a very different story.

The Harrod’s shoulder bag Jamie sported actually costs a more accessible $2,224, the Ralph Lauren shirtdress costs $299, the Veronika Main pleated dress is $279 and the Onitsuka shoes can be bought for $340.

All up, that makes Jamie’s outfit worth a much more modest $3,142, just over a tenth of the cost of what they claimed their getup was worth.

‘The math ain’t mathing,’ they added. 

It is worth noting that sometimes prices of clothing items change due to market trends and Azzopardi may have purchased the items at a more expensive price due to huge demand. 

However, even if you were to double the cost of everything listed, it would still not come anywhere near the $26,000 price tag they said, making their claims suspect.

Jamie is known for nailing their fits everywhere they go.

Last year, the stylist to the stars managed to stun spectators at Australian Fashion Week by showcasing a staggering 20 dresses throughout the duration of the event.
