Style and Shape Analysis

While all the image consultations at Vanity are fabulous, indispensible and life-changing; none of them will have the desired effect if you do not asses your body shape.
Understanding your flaws and assets is imperative to looking your absolute best. You can immediately improve the appearance of your shape by embracing the skill of illusion dressing.
By understanding and defining your own personal style you will be able to create a look that will not only flatter your body shape but will also be a translation of your personality.
What will we do in my session?
Assess your body shape (and face shape) – as well as your body assets and flaws. Once this has been established, we will determine how you can illusion dress your body by enhancing the parts of your body you love and disguising those parts you loathe .
Give you an understanding of illusion dressing and how to make better purchase decisions.
Discover the your own personal style and the type of look to which you aspire and how to achieve it
Combine with this consultation with the Colour Analysis consultation, so that you will have a holistic understanding of which styles and colours suit you.

Colour Analysis

The key to looking your absolute best is colour. Colour has the ability to make you look healthy or unhealthy, fat or thin, short or tall - by simply wearing colours that complement your features, you can instantly transform your appearance.
In the colour analysis consultation we will assess your colour palette, and help you incorporate the optimal colours in your wardrobe.
What will we do in my consultation?

Discover which colour palette you fall into and which are the best colour combinations for you.
Give you guidelines on how to co-ordinate these colours in an outfit

Combine with the Style Analysis consultation, and educate you on how to make the best purchase decisions when out shopping.

Wardrobe Styling

Most woman face one of two wardrobe dilemma's – a full, cluttered wardrobe with nothing to wear, or an empty wardrobe with nothing to wear.
A well ordered wardrobe filled with essential items that flatter your body shape and colour palette will help you put outfits together easier.
What will we do in my session?

Assess your wardrobe and through a ‘wardrobe detox’ identify which items don’t work for you and that you will need to get rid of.
Establish what is lacking in your wardrobe, so that you will have a well planned shopping list that will help you avoid making impulsive buys and fashion mistakes.
If this is your first session with an image consultant I would highly recommend the Style, Shape and Colour consultations before undertaking the Wardrobe Styling Consultation.
Naturally the Personal Shopping Consultation should follow a Wardrobe Styling session ,to help educate you on how to shop for items that are lacking and for items that will work with what you currently have in your wardrobe.

Personal Shopping

When deciding whether you need a personal shopper – you should answer the following questions:
Think about the last time you went shopping.
Did you come home with items you were looking for ? Have you worn all of the items you purchased? Do they fit, flatter and suit your body shape and colour palette?
Vanity will research the shops for you, based on your style preference, size, body shape, colour palette, budget, and lifestyle.
What will we do in my session?

We will compile a purposeful shopping list, based on your body shape, style, colour palette, and wardrobe needs.
Discover what really works on you, as we encourage you to try on new and different items that if shopping alone you may well have left on the rail.
Focus on pulling together a whole new look and complete outfits
Assess the merit of each possible item and ensure you buy those that you’ll get the most pleasure and wear out of.
