As well as colour being important we also need to understand our unique body shape. We all come in all shapes and sizes that make us special individuals with individual needs. An élan consultation will show you how to camouflage any figure faults helping you to look taller, shorter, slimmer/fuller according to your needs and desires. By identiftying your figure shape, scale and proportion you'll be able to shop with greater confidence with the knowledge of knowing the style that suits you .

Style is not something we are born with and not something that money can buy, but something everyone can learn and develop. You’ve heard the expression ‘Fashions go out of style but style never goes out of fashion’ well everyone has style, but it’s finding your own unique style that can cause the headache.

At élan we look at the whole picture from head to toe. We all have different body shapes, some people are more angular whilst others are more contoured. To be well dressed, the shape of your clothes and the fabrics and patterns we choose, need to follow these similar lines. Our faces too come in all different shapes which can help you discover the best shapes for styling your hair, the most flattering glasses/sunglasses to wear, even down to selecting your correct collars, ties necklines and jewellery.

By learning about the style of clothing that will flatter your body shape, you’ll discover your style and how to mix and match your clothes stylishly. When you are confident with the way you look, others will definitely notice. On completion of your consultation you will also receive a personalised workbook.
