Fashion Consultancy - Learn how to feel confident in what you wear

I am here to help you select or (even) discover new fashion statement pieces.

Are you tired of your wardrobe, or do you just want to spice it up? Your old shirt has been sitting in your drawers for ages, and you just don't know how to use it? Your friend's dinner party is coming up, and you just don't know what to wear?

This is where I jump in. I'm originally from Italy, but since moving to London I started to experiment with my looks. Soon I found an ally in fashion and started using what I was wearing to express myself and who I truly was.

When I wear what I feel good in - I feel confident and ready to 'take on the world'.

I want to help women like me to feel the same and truly embrace who they are.

I'm an Event Coordinator for a Women's Refugee charity in the morning, but I experiment with clothes during the weekend or whenever I travel (which is where I draw most of my inspiration from).

My dream is to open my own rental's club online site so that I can share the dresses and unique pieces I collected along my travels with the broader community.

I'd be so humbled to help you, feel free to reach out and ask me any questions.

About Me

Hey hey lovely people!

My name's Elisa, and I've always had a thing for fashion, since a very young age.

I would devour fashion magazine like Cosmopolitan and Vogue.

Now for the first time I would like to put my creative skills (and what I've learnt along the way) at work.

I am here to help you with fashion consultancy. A dinner party you want to go to? A wedding? An interview? A business dinner or a company party?
I've got you covered.

I'm really passionate about this. Being this my first time, I want to give it a shot.

I cannot end this bio without sharing my three must-haves for every gal's closet:
I have to be honest a good fitted blazer, high waisted jeans and oversized shirt.

See you on the other side ;)

Ask a question

Send a message explaining your needs and Elisa will reply soon:
The more detail, the better.
Ex. "Hi, when are you available to meet for a lesson?"

Develop a unique fashion design vision with Central Saint Martins alumna
Firstly we will go through a consultation to define your individual requirements so I can tailor the sessions specifically to you. Previous work/a portfolio is great to see, if you’re a beginner we can discuss what you’d like to learn and achieve. Whilst getting to know one another I will also provide some resources for us to discuss so I can see how your brain interprets 3D relationships. Following this, I will create a plan of action for us to follow to help you achieve your goal. I am very honest with my approach, and will help you turn your weaknesses into strengths, as well as encouraging you to develop your own unique design style, brand & process (and the confidence to execute!). I will encourage you to think outside the box & realise potential routes to your goal you hadn’t previously considered. I can help with: • Creating a vision and portfolio that demonstrates your designer DNA. • Creating a portfolio for application to a Fashion Degree. • Help collecting the right ingredients & contacts to start a fashion label. • Developing original textiles. • How to create a pattern, and how to grade it. • How to use a sewing machine, and how to sew different types of seams, collars, cuffs, pockets, hems, sleeves, waistbands, trousers & fastenings. I provide 24 hour support. Any questions you have about working in the industry or studying a Fashion degree I am more than happy to help with.
