Our FAQ's
If you do have a question that you can't find the answer to, feel free to get in touch with one of the team, we are happy to have a chat.
No. Our wardrobe process is about finding what colours suit you, the shape of clothing that best balances out your body shape and the fit of your clothes. Once we have all this information we can both assess your clothes and make decisions on what should go, hasn’t been worn in ages or needs to be replaced at some stage. Once you understand the logic behind why you haven’t worn a particular piece, it becomes easier to part with.
Yes, completely. This is a personal service and many people feel nervous about what will be said or thought of about their clothing choices. Fear not! We do not come to judge you. We understand its hard for people to make wise decisions without understanding their colours and shape.
Again. no. The shopping session is geared towards showing you the colours, shapes, flow of colour and layering techniques that are discussed at the wardrobe session. It is an important part of understanding what is best for you. You need not buy anything. When shopping mainstream we hold all items we like and come back for them at the end of the shop. This way we can make excellent decisions on which pieces are best, enabling us to keep within your budget. Shopping at our favourite second-hand warehouse is also a fantastic option for those keen on getting a decent amount of quality clothes for a small price. Our consultants are very experienced in all aspects of shopping, be it mainstream, designer or second-hand.
The reason we have had to make our prices different for two different cities is the Auckland sprawl and traffic are quite different from compact little Wellington.
Our consultant in Wellington is able to get to your house fairly easily and be assured they won’t be too stuck in traffic and have little or no parking restrictions. However, as Auckland is much bigger, spread and as such has a considerably larger population, the consultant’s travel times and distances will be greater and longer, which has been reflected and built into the consutlation price.
In our defence, the Auckland prices are still one of the most reasonable, considering most Stylists charge individual prices for a Colour session, shape analysis and Wardrobe Audit. With our Colour, Style and Wardrobe package you get all 3 for the price of one!
Trudi Bennett looks forward to seeing you in Auckland and Sarah Nichol is excited to be helping new and our many existing clients in Wellington.
Most people only wear a third of the clothes in their wardrobe. Your lifestyle does dictate how many clothes you need, but often, having seen how well your colours mix and match, people are able to downsize their wardrobes. Each piece goes with half a dozen other pieces.
Absolutely not. We truly believe that you can look fantastic no matter what size or shape you are. We balance out all areas of your body with the right shapes and wonderful colour makes you look younger and healthier. We can show you what current fashions suit your particular body shape, but always stick with what suits you, rather than what is currently ‘in’.
Yes we do. Our business is built on logic and problem solving. Two aspects that suit our males client very well. Both men and women want the same things when it comes to clothes and shopping. To be able to make wise choices, to shop easily and to know what they have bought is right for them.
Yes we do! Sarah and I both have young children but want to provide the very best service to our clients at times that are going to suit them.
So we have plenty of day-time options and we also cater for after hours with evening sessions for wardrobe consultations, plus late night shopping out at a Westfield mall and a couple of full day Saturdays each month.
We have made this really easy. You email trudi on trudi@wardrobeflair.com and tell her what you would like to purchase. For instance a wardrobe consult and 2.5 hours of shopping, the name of the recipient, who the voucher is from and we are done!
We then send you our bank account details and the voucher via email, so the whole transaction is done very quickly and you have a great voucher to print off from your computer. To make it a little more special, print it off in colour and laminate it.
Most people let the recipient book their own times, but we can also book times during this initial process.
A colour and shape party is great excuse to get a group of people together and have a really fun and hugely rewarding evening.
Parties range in size from the minimum of 4 people to up to 25 for a larger group. Everyone gets their colours done and it is super fun to watch everyone else and try and see if you can guess whether your friends and family members are warm or cool toned.
The consultant then runs through everybodies shapes and if time, can look at some pieces of clothing you may have bought along. These sessions cater for those who don’t want the whole wardrobe clear-out but want to know what best suits them with their colours and shape. A fantastic, fun, exciting and memorable evening.
