A Brave New Woman
Today was a great day to begin Lynne's style development. The snow has gone - OK it's due back, but for today the sky was blue and the sun shone constantly - very symbolic for a new beginning. Today we considered Lynne's unique style personality. By using different pre-consultation exercises including written word and picture boards we were able to consider what Lynne really enjoys in life, what inspires her and what styles appeal to her. Our style personality may sound a bit out there but it's vital that if we aim to convey our authentic selves through our appearance we give this some serious thought. We identified that Lynne is a sensual woman so the use of different materials in outfits will be important. Lynne also appreciates good design in a clean lines and contemporary style using natural materials. These will be important elements of Lynne's wardrobe as it develops over the next few months. Look around you, be inspired by what you see and break it down. For instance many clients are inspired by horticulture but while some love wild, chaotic gardens others appreciate the order and thought of well kept lawns and balance in plant patterns. The former client may prefer layered and creative forms of dressing while the latter enjoys a minimal, elegant style - both will be beautiful but very different.
The foundation blocks of Lynne's wardrobe have been laid by considering her passions, what makes her happy and that's where every successful wardrobe begins - with the person who will be wearing each garment on a regular basis.
