Most people think that the idea of a Image Consultant or Personal Shopper is laughable, let along conducting a course on how to become one. People assume that it’s very vain, or superficial of someone to even entertain the idea, that it’s a job all about judging others, or demeaning other people known as “fashion victims”.
Style Therapists are specialists in visual appearance, verbal and nonverbal communications. Working with individual clients, image professionals assist them in attaining authenticity, self-confidence and credibility. Contrary to what some might think, but this is in fact a booming field, and image consultants are more in demand now then ever before.
A personal shopper may work for individual clients purchasing clothing, furniture, jewellery, or gifts, or they may be employed for an organisations, such as a boutique, department store, or shopping centre.
The course is spread out over 10 weeks covering topics of vital importance to anyone who wants to enter into a career as a personal shopper, including the skills employers and clients are looking for in a personal shopper, how to get insider knowledge of products and trends, and identifying a client's needs and finding the appropriate products.
