How do you develop your own clothing style that fits
your lifestyle?
Assess how
you function on a daily basis from professional and
personal.
This
will define your essential needs in the appropriate
pieces you should own.
How
physically active are you?
Do you spend a lot of time in a car or an office?
Is
your social life a full calendar and if so what type of
events?
( The answer for your
own style can be fully discussed in depth from the
practical way of finding your look and style.)

3) How do you develop your
own style maintaining the classics with a racy edge?
Evaluate
and understand your silhouette. ( Body Type)
Features : Example- Hair or skin. (Color and texture)
Personality Type- Defines your look (Note style evolves
from within and is portrayed outwardly and is something
that you never stop striving for. In essence you may
achieve our basic look but minor changes make you more
interesting.)

4)
How do you organize the ultimate wardrobe and care for
it?
Merchandising
your closet and drawers are the most efficient way.
Colorize your closet hang pieces that will coordinate as
outfits with options. (This interaction will initiate the opportunity for you to wear all of your clothes)
Make
sure you can see clearly what you own and once you’ve
worn an outfit you may want to rotate it in your closet.
Research a local dry cleaner and a seamstress that has a
great reputation and develop a relationship just as you
would with your butcher.

5) How many essential pieces
should there be in a basic wardrobe?
The amount
can vary but the basics are between 6 and 10 pieces.
Novelty jacket, pant, skirt , dress, blouse or shirt, 2
or 3 underpinnings (meaning tops and a suit if needed.)
Neutral shades of black, beige, camel and forms of
burgundy are part of this category. Important note:
These items should only be wovens or flat fabrics that
can work back to novelty fabrics such as herringbones,
tweeds,or chunky substantial weaves that give depth.
Footnote: Donna Karan
innovated the idea of the new black when she arrived
with Midnight which essentially is navy with a strong
sophisticated black undertone. The fashion industry took
it further using the same concept with dark green and
burgundy.
Adding forms of
brown, mushroom and even camel. This new black concept
has broadened the basics in many neutral shades. It has
certainly given the classic look a fresh new image.

6) How do
you coordinate fabrics together to make your clothing
more interesting?
Determine the
weights of fabric and how they fall together there has
to be a graceful drape to the way they gel together.
Note: Can be defined
further in discussion.
