Past Before and After Fashion Makeover Results

There is something so compelling about seeing how different someone can look – especially when it seems to happen by magic (or the flick of a wardrobe stylist’s magic wand!). The ‘magic’ is in the journey and each woman’s journey to discover her personal style is different.

Each of these women you see here (most of whom are over 40) had questions about her wardrobe. They wanted to understand how to choose clothing that make them feel beautiful, learn why some things work and others don’t and receive the tools that make shopping more enjoyable and productive. What you see here are the results of our journey together. This experience changed their lives and their relationship with their wardrobe and bodies. The beaming smiles you see in the ‘after’ pictures are just one indication of how a natural radiance shines through when someone feels fabulous about how she looks. She just can’t hide it!

(Note: I am a stickler for being sure each woman is smiling in her ‘before’ picture, that the lighting is consistent and that there are no touch-ups done after the fact (this is not true for all before and after fashion makeovers out there). What you see is what you get and the after photos say it all.)

Diane's Makeover

There’s a delicateness about Diane’s beauty that isn’t expressed when she wears a shapeless, colorless suit, especially when the fit is all wrong. Instead, her fashion makeover consisted of moving her into softer fabrics and colors that enhance her natural beauty instead of overpowering it. The difference is magical!

“I had a dose of happy today when I put on my teal sweater, belted cream tank, and saw the blue in my eyes just pop! (My coworker and students commented as well.) I really felt competent and capable of anything that was thrown my way today (and, believe me, it was).”

— DIANE MCKAY

Amanda's Makeover

Amanda felt like she had no pizzazz. For someone with such natural radiance and who has a fun side that likes to feel a “little bit dangerous,” her look before her image makeover fell flat. She feels most at home with a look that combines garments and accessories in an unusual way even while her natural coloring calls for softer colors.

“Ginger has shown me, not only how to dress in the best ways for me, but also how to be truer to myself. She has an extraordinary ability to see deeply into her clients and–gently–show each of us how to let our own, unique qualities shine forth.”

Donna's Makeover

Can you see the energy that Donna exudes? We added some face-framing layers to Donna’s hair, and, as for her wardrobe, the makeover included clothing that better reflected her enchanting smile and vibrant nature.

“Ginger was looking for the “inner person” so that the clothes would be a reflection of me, rather than my being a reflection of the clothes.”

Sara's Makeover

Sara has a lovely beauty that was not supported by the clothes she was wearing that had little personality and the colors that were too muted for her. Here’s where a wardrobe stylist understands how to tweak something for major impact! Her fashion makeover consisted of adding some pop to the color jacket and shine to her hair – what a fabulous difference!

“The shopping, with Ginger’s keen eye and color sense, was as wonderful as ever, and the photo shoot was a slice of heaven. I’ve never done anything even vaguely similar and had more fun than I’ve had in years.”

Marianne's Makeover

Marianne was drowning in too much fabric and a color that dimmed her inner sparkle. No wardrobe stylist wants to see that happen! So, I suggested a more fitted suit, a hint of color and shine, and we straightened her hair to create another option for a professional look. It polished her image and the makeover, in general, brightened her spirit

“The reactions from my friend and family (not to mention those in the supermarket) were wonderful! It was a phenomenal experience, and I love the whole look!”

Meryl's Makeover

Meryl has this beautiful radiance that was feeling overwhelmed by the stark black and white. As an image and wardrobe stylist I knew that we had to lighten things up by bringing more animation and softness to her style. That’s where the dress came in. The colors are gorgeous and the print is just the right busy-ness to support Meryl without overpowering her image. The makeover finished with soft makeup and a sleek new haircut.

“I had such a wonderful time creating my new look – especially the “makeover” day, and since then, I have gotten SOOOO many compliments!”

— MERYL FINKEL

Can Ginger (with 30 years as a wardrobe stylist) help you with your wardrobe makeover?

Most people think that anyone who is an image consultant has known how to put herself together since she was born. Well, that’s one thing that makes Ginger different: she had to go through her very own fashion makeover and personal style transformation so she can now offer this same experience to other women. So, she knows exactly what it feels like and what a difference it makes to a woman’s personal style. Her own wardrobe makeover made her realize that all women deserve this and since she had a gift for teaching with gentle guidance and insight that’s what she has been doing ever since!

I thought of you as I packed for a short trip. I was able to bring just a carry on for a whole week due to your help with my “capsule wardrobe”. I can’t believe I have had so many choices each day as everything goes with everything. Not only that but I can dress things up or down depending on accessories. Your help is SO appreciated!
