Fashion and Wardrobe Consultant

Description

What would a boss do if his or her employees started showing up to work in ratty sweatsuits? Although the offices may not be open to the public, he or she still wants to maintain a professional atmosphere before staff start showing up in pajamas with slippers in tow. But how does a boss bring this up? How to they convey and define an appropriate dress code while making sure that employees understand they do not need to begin wearing high heels or suits and ties. 

Recently, companies who have found their staff too casual have started hiring fashion and wardrobe consultants to host seminars on smart, comfortable dressing for the office. Individuals who want to change their overall style also use these fashion experts to improve their looks, their self-esteem, even their relationships! The way we feel about ourselves can really affect how we interact with the rest of the world, our professional behavior at the workplace, and the way we feel inside. Amazingly, finding a style of jacket that accentuates your good features, or a style of pants that fits perfectly to your shape, can drastically modify your outlook in a number of ways. 

Fashion and wardrobe consultants focus on colors, styles, accessories, and even hair and makeup. They make sure they keep on top of the latest trends in haute couture and figure out ways to translate the looks into more affordable and less extreme business, casual, and social wear. They work with large groups of company employees, teenagers, business executives and celebrities - any one who wants to make a good impression, change their style, or update their look. 

Some fashion and wardrobe consultants work for department stores and retail chains, while others simply attract new clients through word of mouth. Wherever they work, and whoever they advise, fashion and wardrobe consultants know that image is important, and creating a stylish, unique image is often the key to positive self-esteem
