- 1You find out which styles, colours and fabrics make you look great and why. Plus size shopping is SO much easier when you know what to buy!

how much does a fashion makeover cost?
Prices for fashion makeover packages can range widely. Some service providers offer packages that include showing you what to wear AND taking you shopping BUT you have to pay for the clothes separately — they may or may not charge you a commission on what you buy...
Other service providers — like us — offer fashion makeover packages that include buying clothes at a special discount. Our fashion makeover prices start at HK $990. We offer packages to suit every budget with options you can mix and match to meet your needs!
how to budget for a fashion makeover and choose your styling services provider...
It's very common to want to throw out your whole closet and start again after a styling session which is why we recommend you begin with the end in mind and plan your budget first. Knowing what to buy is crucial, but if you don't have enough money to buy at least one new outfit you may feel frustrated so choose a service provider that can tailor a package to meet your needs!
top tips for choosing a fashion makeover service provider....
- 1Work out your TOTAL budget including the amount of money you want to spend on new clothes. Many plus-size women find it difficult to buy off-rack fast fashion that fits. It's definitely worth paying extra for quality clothes that fit you perfectly even if that means you can only buy 1 new dress or outfit to begin with! Your confidence is worth it!
- 2Make sure your service provider specializes in style for plus size women so you get the best advice AND when it comes to shopping they can advise whether off-rack or custom plus size clothes are going to be best for you. While it's possible to have some alterations done post-purchase, the fit is never as good so the cost of custom clothes evens out
- 3If you are on a tight budget, choose a service provider that allows you to pay as you go. For example, in addition to our makeover packages that include clothes, we also offer styling services by the hour with special 'clothes only packages' available to you later...
- 4Check out styling services reviews from your service provider and if possible, meet them in person before you book so you can talk in advance about your budget and goals and which package options are going to give you the best value

styling service Reviews
Motivating, Educational & Absolutely Fabulous!
I was fortunate to meet Catherine and spent the best 2 hours discovering what to wear and what not to wear for my body shape - most importantly Catherine shares easy-to-apply style steps and has you feeling positive about your body shape in no time at all.
Before meeting Catherine... I used to shop thinking I had to cover my curves and the additional weight gain only to discover that the clothing I was purchasing was actually putting even more weight on ‘optically’ and “yes” I felt this - I felt frumpy and uncomfortable with no style. After years of shopping this way, I ended up with a wardrobe with no real style and no direction and wardrobe disappointment as I spent time trying to find something to wear that I felt “okay” in
After meeting Catherine... I now know my body shape and embrace it. With colour and style matching and tips and tricks, I watched, with my own eyes, my shape and size change by at least 2 sizes “optically” - I am the same curvy gal I was when I walked in but now I’m owning it and loving how I look - I really cannot remember the last time I truly felt this way. Catherine’s style eye is on point - she was able to work with me and understood what suited my lifestyle and ensured I could take it away and apply. The best thing is that transformation can happen immediately with what you learn.
I walked in feeling frumpy and left feeling “fabulous”. Watch out World!!
