Meet the Haute & Messy
Dr. Suzanne Wallach (The Haute)
is a therapist, vintage fashion collector, and reseller with a long standing interest in how clothing reflects identity, memory, and culture. Her approach to fashion is both analytical and intuitive, shaped by years of sourcing and collecting archival pieces that carry history rather than hype.
Ali Berba (The Messy)
is a New York–bred stylist, vintage curator, and founder of Wayward Debutante. Known for her instinctive approach to designer vintage and archive dressing, she came up immersed in nightlife, fashion, and the lived rhythm of clothes worn after dark. Her relationship to style is emotional rather than academic — shaped by years of sourcing, styling, and wearing pieces that carry memory, attitude, and edge.
