Washington image consultant Lynne Glassman has helped many people develop their image and style and she is offering Beauty In DC readers some of her professional expertise.
Q: Lynne what services do you offer?
Lynne: I offer color analysis, makeovers, face shape analysis, silhouette analysis, personal shopping, closet surgery and seminars. Check out my website for greater discussion on each of these services. www.doctorofdress.com
Q: Can you tell us about your background and training?
Lynne: I am a certified image consultant, professional color/silhouette analyst, personal shopper and closet surgeon with more than 15 years of experience in the world of fashion. I apply my doctoral degree in education to teaching men and women how to create their own best personal style. And my mom was in the business before me so it is in my DNA.
Lynne: I am doing a workshop for the Smithsonian Institution on Saturday, October 24th entitled “The Power of Image: a Stimulus Package for Women” where I will be teaching participants how to establish a competitive edge in today’s marketplace. The seminar will provide the opportunity to examine your style and create the winning image you desire. See the following for more information on the seminar http://residentassociates.org/ticketing/tickets/reserve.aspx?performanceNumber=218193
Q: If a more mature candidate is competing with younger job seekers is there any special advice you would give to her?
Lynne: Style is not about beauty or age, it is about knowing and respecting yourself for who you are and having the confidence to project your unique style in a consistent and confident manner.
Q: What makeup and hair tips would you suggest?
Lynne: I work with clients to determine the best makeup colors for their skin, hair and eyes; teach them how to apply the makeup for any occasion and determine their face shape to suggest any number of hairstyles, eyewear, collars and necklines appropriate for their face shape.
Q: Are there any specific products or services you would recommend?
Lynne: I think everyone should consider getting a color analysis. No matter how you spend your time, you have to buy clothing so you may as well know which colors are most becoming for you. Color can make you look happy or sad; healthy or sickly; dynamic or dull; younger or older.
Q Are there advantages to using someone with your expertise?
Lynne: A great visual image increases self-esteem and confidence; when you know you look your best, you will walk, talk and even think differently and others will respond accordingly. A good image consultant can help you enhance your image while saving you time and precious dollars. I am trained to help you know what is most becoming in terms of clothing colors and styles as well as makeup. I can keep you from making costly mistakes. I can help you build clothing “capsules” so that you can maximize the number of outfits while using the minimum number of pieces. I am in the stores all the time so I know where you can get the highest quality of clothing and accessories while staying within your budget. No matter what your coloring, body type or proportions, I can help you project your assets and camouflage whatever you need or wish to downplay.
