"The reason why I choose Leona is because I feel her inspiring, she is always very elegant and walks her talk!

I spent a few hours with Leona and she explained to me everything that I needed to know, she put some fabrics on me with different colours to define which 'season' I am related. She also measured my body to know which type of clothes are best - long or short skirts, shorts, pants, short pants, long sleeves, short ones, length of jackets, you name it, she did it!

The 2 hours shopping that I booked after the consultation were really interesting and I am glad that she was with me to put me on the right track. It is to me a good investment that will save me money in the long term... buying new clothes for my NEW look that are suitable and elegant for me."

"An image consultancy appointment was not high on my agenda, when my wife suggested it. But my wardrobe reflected my thinking: congested, outdated and mediocre. I took the plunge.

Initially Leona did a colour analysis and this, I was to discover, was the basis of all that followed. For all my life, except when a random gift or purchase hit the target, I’ve been living out of step, or should I say out of colour tone. Leona’s skilled eye enabled the ‘practical but dull’ to give way to ‘energising and memorable’. The Spring Man was born.

The day culminated in the annihilation of my wardrobe as decades of fashion inertia and stifling attachment to ‘old friends’ was compassionately but firmly prised from it’s dusty home. By day’s end, I felt freer, lighter and open to new growth and possibilities. Congestion was replaced by order and simplicity. Left were the clothes I liked to wear, and indeed those that I usually wore. The rest were destined to a better home, to those that needed them and would love and value them.

The next day was the shopping trip. Armed with my new confidence and clarity in the form of my colour palate guide, and with Leona doing the talking, we hit the shops. With surgical precision, we were able to go straight to the target. This was efficient and enjoyable. I felt empowered and successful walking out of the menswear shop, dressed to thrill, and with the beautiful Leona beaming with delight at my purchases. This part was essential to the whole process: I needed to gain the confidence to know what worked for me in terms of image before I could turn an activity that I usually dreaded into something I now see as precision guided fun.

Accolades have abounded since. Friends and clients will either say something of my new look, or I can feel their approval. But that’s the whole point. I now feel (and look) like the successful professional I aspire to be. I recommend Design By Leona to anyone feeling stuck with their life and needing some empowerment. The flow-on effects are quite remarkable. Thanks Leona."
