Have you ever wondered why someone would need advice on what to wear or how to dress? Why would someone need assistance doing something so simple as getting dressed?
Wearing clothes is something most of us have to do. Putting successful outfits together that suit our lifestyles, body-shapes and colouring is entirely different.
The role of a Personal Stylist is not limited to finding answers to these questions alone, but goes beyond suggesting outfits, trends, styles, colours and make-up. It’s to make an individual aware of the theory behind achieving styles that best suit them, and making them understand what NOT to wear. It’s not a question of whether you’re dressing ‘as per the latest fashion trends’, or investing in certain brands.
Personal Styling & Image Building is more about building self-confidence, creating an image that you’d wish to portray to the world, and conveying the right message through your clothes.
You are judged within the first 7 seconds of meeting someone, hence why your outfit speaks volumes.
Whether you need to dress up for an event, dress down for a movie night, plan your travel wardrobe, or simply dress for ‘every day’, a Personal Stylist will help you identify your individual style personality, learn how to dress right for the right occasion, and show you how to maximise the items in your closet.
With online shopping becoming more popular, easy & convenient (with returns especially), people are usually investing in unnecessary purchases that are mostly influenced by images floating around on various social platforms. The main reason for higher return statistics than ever before is the lack of understanding one’s body shape, tone & colouring.
A personal styling session with one of our formally trained & friendly stylists will help you understand that and much more
A slip dress for example, may look great on a rectangle or an athletic body shape (with an undefined waistline/long torso), but not ideal for a pear body shape (more bottom heavy), unless styled with a jacket in a different colour – to break-up the outfit and shift focus from waist-down to the top half.
Many luxury and fast fashion brands have started to offer a virtual Personal Shopper or Style Advisor to help curate a capsule wardrobe & influence your purchasing behaviour – limiting the selection to their brand alone.
A Personal Stylist isn’t biased and concerned with specific brands, but would instead completely focus on the individual and assist them one-to-one in achieving their style & fashion objectives.
