Ty-Ron Mayes, celebrated as the stylist of choice for a plethora of A-list celebrities, has emerged as a leading figure in the world of fashion and philanthropy. Among his illustrious clientele are luminaries such as Shark Tank’s Daymond John and superstars Tyra Banks and Heidi Klum, to name just a few. However, Mayes’s influence extends far beyond the fashion realm, as he passionately serves as an advisory board member for The Orchid Foundation and actively champions the fight against prostate cancer through his annual appearances on the Blue Jacket Fashion Show runway.

When asked about his work ethic during a shoot, Ty-Ron Mayes shared his philosophy with Gurus Magazine, stating, “I need to check everything off my to-do list. When you’re styling and designing high-concept shoots, it’s the little details that make a difference. The devil is in the details.”

In his role as the Fashion Whisperer for Agenda, Mayes has not only penned informative articles on styling but has also produced and styled celebrity photoshoots. Additionally, he’s conducted interviews with and styled Agenda cover models, including icons such as Carol Alt and Tyson Beckford. Since joining the prestigious fashion and lifestyle magazine in 2020, Mayes has made a substantial impact.

Kaylene Peoples, Founder & Editor-in-Chief of Agenda, expressed her admiration for Ty-Ron Mayes, stating, “In his three-year tenure with us, Ty-Ron Mayes has been an integral force behind elevating the Agenda brand. His articles transcend mere words, offering immersive experiences that entertain and inform our readers. His masterful styling, characterized by a captivating blend of creativity and allure, has earned our utmost admiration. And his modeling skills? Simply unparalleled.”

In a striking display of style and influence, Ty-Ron Mayes’s most recent cover story in Red: The Luxury Life not only showcases his remarkable biography but also highlights his prowess as a “Super Stylist,” solidifying his position as a top figure in the fashion world.

Reflecting on this achievement, Ty-Ron Mayes remarked, “As a behind-the-scenes stylist, this opportunity advances my journey as a celebrity stylist, enabling me to amplify my creativity and deep passion for fashion. I am profoundly honored to be the first African American and Black male to grace the cover of Red: The Luxury Life. And I don’t take any of this lightly; to be featured on the cover of any prominent publication is an immense honor.”

As an Advisory Board member of The Orchid Foundation, Mayes played a pivotal role in introducing the foundation to Macy’s executives and their Give Back Program. This collaboration resulted in Macy’s wholeheartedly embracing The Orchid Foundation and generously supporting its cause. Beginning in October 2023, Macy’s Department stores in Brooklyn and Staten Island added The Orchid Foundation to their “Round Up Program.” Customers can now round up their purchases, with proceeds directly benefiting The Orchid Foundation. This support enables the foundation to bolster the self-esteem of young Black girls and provide tutoring services to help them graduate from high school and college.

In addition to his current achievements, Ty-Ron Mayes is currently working on an exciting project—a book on fashion, beauty, and style. This forthcoming book promises to be a captivating and insightful guide, offering readers a unique glimpse into the world of fashion from the perspective of a true industry icon.
