In 2009 Sternberg won CFDA’s Swarovski Award for New Menswear Designer of the Year. In 2010 he was jointly awarded the CFDA Best Menswear Designer award and in 2011 Band of Outsiders was selected as the guest designer at Pitti Uomo in Florence. The brand expanded to included womenswear as well as a range of Polo Shirts under the moniker "This is not a Polo Shirt." In 2015, Sternberg announced he was leaving the brand.

In 2021, Sternberg stepped down from his role at Entireworld and began freelancing as a creative director, brand consultant and commercial director working across fashion, beauty, tech, automotive, music, film and hospitality.

A graduate of Washington University with a BA in Economics, Sternberg worked at Hollywood agency CAA from 1997 to 2002. Before starting Band of Outsiders, Sternberg worked on a consulting venture with Emily Scott, Tom Scott and Cary Woods.
