“Thank you for an unforgettable experience – I have benefitted enormously from the technical input you gave me on my “body proportions” and personal preferences and you caused me to experiment with clothes I would never have considered for myself.  I know your input has worked because firstly, I feel great in the outfits we chose together and secondly, I catch people looking at me!

I am deeply grateful for the boost you have given my wardrobe and my confidence.”

Personal Style and Image Services for Women

Women who want to manage their appearance and develop a style that is appropriate to their lifestyle and personality, can benefit greatly from working with a Personal Stylist or Image Consultant. Of the ranges of services available to women, some of the most popular are Image Consultations, Wardrobe Management, Personal Shopping, and Make-up Lessons.

Personal Image Consultation
A Personal Image Consultation is a one-off session that typically lasts a few hours where you receive expert guidelines on choosing the most suitable garments and accessories for your individual lifestyle, budget, style preferences, colouring and figure. Consultations are highly tailored and personalised for you, and you are also given an aide memoire to help you to put all the theory into practice. A Consultation can sometimes take place in your home, and is often the starting point to an ongoing relationship between you and the Consultant.

Wardrobe Management
A wardrobe management takes place in your home and may include weeding, sorting, organising and recording your current garments and accessories, and deciding what you need to buy to create the perfect wardrobe. Wardrobe management sessions are highly tailored and personalised.

Personal Shopping
The majority of Personal Stylists and Image Consultants are available for personal shopping, either with or without first carrying out a Personal Image Consultation. Personal shopping trips are planned around your specific needs and times and locations vary accordingly. Most often, you would accompany the shopper, but s/he would plan and prepare the trip in advance by ‘pre-shopping’ or ‘pre-selecting’. A personal shopper often helps clients to change habits by introducing you to new styles, or labels, or ways to put your clothes together.

Make-up Lessons
Many Image Consultants are trained in make-up application and/or skin care and include make-up services in their portfolios. In a private make-up lesson you can learn how to select the best cosmetics and skin care for you, and the latest application techniques to create the looks you want. Make-up lessons can take place in your home, and in groups as well as one-to-one.
