Benefits of an Image Consultant
1) Save time & money on outfits that will always look good on you.
When it comes to dressing yourself, there’s no doubt that it costs money. If you don’t know what to look for, you spend too much time searching, trying and buying different styles that may not suit you. Most of the time, you end up wasting money and time, and feeling frustrated and disappointed.
What if I told you that you don’t need to spend much at all while still looking good?
Image consultants are trained to understand who you are and what you need in terms of style to help you impress others. They not only help you find out what colours flatter you, but, also, they analyze your body type, body shape, body proportions, face shape, etc., and help you find outfits and accessories that complement you. Just imagine someone who has the eyes for every detail and who can take all of the guesswork out of shopping and choosing outfits for you. How wonderful does that sound?
If you’re a busy professional, you will be grateful to make this investment that will change your life. You might be surprised how much time it saves you from looking for and thinking about what to wear. Most importantly, you will always looking well put together.
2) You’ll feel more comfortable, confident, and attractive.
You know those days when none of your clothes seem to fit properly? Or you’re missing that one piece you need for the day? Or maybe you have a wardrobe full of clothes from years ago that never quite work for you anymore?
Your personal stylist can guide you to know what colours and fabrics would look harmonious on you. With that guidance, you will understand what works best for your body type and fits your lifestyle and personality.
Personal styling is not about fashion and trends. Instead, it helps you discover and find yourself, then express yourself through style. A good personal stylist can easily pull together outfits that make you feel like a million bucks.
Feeling confident and comfortable is very important to advancing your career in a professional workplace. Image consultants enable you to walk into any room wearing outfits that accentuate your features in an empowering way and helps others to visualize you in your desired position.
3) It helps to advance your career.
One thing we’ve learned over the past few decades is that companies value employees with distinctive strength and visibility. In other words, they prefer people who exude positivity, enthusiasm, and energy at work. This isn’t surprising since companies often think that these traits translate into higher productivity levels and better performance.
However, some people struggle to express themselves effectively during meetings and interviews. Others simply lack self-confidence and aren’t able to project positive vibes. That’s where an image consultant can come in handy. They understand how to leverage colour, style, and clothing into confidence and personal branding in the professional workplace.
In a professional environment, people associate your level of fashion to your role. Your clothes are an extension of your personality. Whether you like it or not, people make judgements based on appearance. Women are judged even more harshly based on how they dress.
Your personality and professionalism should thus be reflected in your outfits. So, if you level up your dress to your desired position, it will help people to see you in that role. Dressing this way will also boost your visibility. Becoming more memorable and visible to management will keep you on their mind when they are looking for a candidate for the role you dream of.
Image consultants can help you create a powerful narrative through your style. This will align with who you are on the inside and help you show up the best version of yourself to the outside world.
