Overview • Become Stylish – Tips for the Stylish Woman • Dressing the Body You Have Today • Why it’s so Hard to Find Clothes that Fit www.bespokeimage.com.au
Become Stylish • Wear light makeup • Keep your clothes current • Good Foundations • Highlight your Assets • Keep Out of Old Lady Shops • Update Your Hairstyle • Find Your Flattering Colours • Dress for the Body You Have Today www.bespokeimage.com.au
1. Light Makeup is Most Flattering • Older skin tends to have more blemishes and needs some foundation – mineral powders are a great and quick option • Harsh and bright makeup colour draw attention and are ageing – bright lipstick is best when you’re younger • Softer, more muted makeup colours flatter • Choose the makeup colours to suit your colouring not your outfit www.bespokeimage.com.au
2. Keep Your Clothes Current • Old Fashioned Clothes = Old Fashioned Ideas • Don’t follow fads, but keep abreast of the overall silhouette of the current fashions (which last around 5 years) • Update with accessories every year • New Glasses Frames will take years off your face www.bespokeimage.com.au
3. Good Foundations • Great bras will lift and give you the illusion of a smaller waist (which disappears with age) • Shapewear can smooth and flatter • Go 1-2 sizes larger than you would automatically reach for www.bespokeimage.com.au
4. Highlight Your Assets • Which parts of your body are you happiest with? • Draw attention up to the face with colours that flatter • Draw attention to your eyes with a top in a similar colour • Draw attention to slim ankles with pretty shoes • Make a feature of what you like, learn how to distract the gaze from what you’re less happy with. www.bespokeimage.com.au
5. Keep Out of Old Lady Shops • You are never old enough to go into an old lady shop. • Old lady shoes are also ageing – you can find comfortable shoes that are also stylish • Mutton dressed as Lamb is a personality trait – if it’s not you, stop worrying about it – it won’t happen www.bespokeimage.com.au
6. Update Your Hairstyle • A new hairstyle can take years off your features and modernise your appearance – expect to get a different cut every 5 years (or less) • Update your hair colour – as we age and go ‘light black’ we need to subtly lighten and soften our hair colour if we choose to dye it. • The hair colour you had at 20 is no longer your ‘natural’ colour. www.bespokeimage.com.au
7. Find your Flattering Colours • Your colouring changes throughout your life • Find out if you’re warm or cool • Colours that are too bright for us will draw attention to our body and away from our face and can look garish. • Dusky , greyed down colours are more sophisticated and flattering, once your hair has gone grey. www.bespokeimage.com.au
8. Dress For the Body You Have Today • Understand your changing body shape and dress it with love and care • Don’t wait til you’ve lost weight to buy and wear clothes you love that flatter you – you’re worth it NOW! www.bespokeimage.com.au
Body Shape • Your Body Shape is determined by your skeleton • Most common body shapes are X, H, A, V, I, O, 8 • Your body shape is the outline of your body (and doesn’t include things such as the size of your bust, bottom or thighs) • Your body shape determines where you place detail or interest in clothes, and where you keep the clothing simple and free of detail www.bespokeimage.com.au
Body Shape • If you are don’t have or are losing your waist, the key is to bypass it, don’t draw attention with detail or interest. • Use vertical lines to slim and lengthen • Use horizontal lines judiciously to balance • Don’t wear more than 1 voluminous garment at a time – e.g. flowing skirt, fitted top www.bespokeimage.com.au
Body Proportions • Body Proportions provide the balance that makes us appear more beautiful, whatever the body shape. • Don’t wear tops that are too long and visually shorten your legs – tops that end around the hip bone are universally flattering • Don’t tuck if you don’t have a long waist • Trying to hide a big bottom or thighs with a long top will backfire and make them look larger • Pull up your sleeves to make your legs look longer www.bespokeimage.com.au
Adding Your Personal Flair • Don’t forget accessories • Jewellery • Shoes • Look for interesting detail, unusual construction, flair or interest to keep your garments from looking dull www.bespokeimage.com.au
Why it’s Hard to Find Clothes that Fit • Coathanger Appeal • Reducing the cost of manufacture • Fit Model www.bespokeimage.com.au
