Style and Image consultation

Think how quickly you make a judgement of some-one that you meet for the first time. Research shows that when some-one meets you for the first time, it is not what you say that they remember; it is what you wear and your body language that is mainly used in making that all important first impression. Whatever you do and whoever you are; your image matters.

How does it work?

We begin the consultation by discussing your lifestyle – your business as well as when you are not at work, your shopping (where and how often), and what you really want to achieve from the consultation. We’ll discuss your colouring and how important it is to you and how using knowledge about which colours suit you can have an effect on your appearance. As your face is such an important area I’ll spend some time suggesting hairstyles and glasses for you. After that we’ll focus on your scale, proportions and body shape. You’ll be encouraged to bring a couple of outfits with you- one that works and one that sits in the wardrobe waiting to be worn (if you have one of these!). We discuss these and how to make the most of your current wardrobe. I ensure you understand the styles that suit you and also how important fabrics, textures and patterns are. We also discuss accessories including shoes and how these can complete your look, whether business or more casual. Finally we’ll discuss any relevant aspects of grooming. At the end of the session you go virtual shopping for your new look so that you’ll be more confident in shopping after you have left me. I have undertaken advanced style and couture training and so I am able to draw on this ensuring that you know how to develop just the style and image you wish for and what alterations are possible when we discuss your current wardrobe.
