Your Body Profile

Based on your skeletal structure, this is your own natural silhouette –  your ‘coat-hanger’ if you like. Your bones are your bones for life! Your weight will naturally go up and down in a lifetime but your bone structure is your one constant in your relationship with how you look.  When you know how, you can create a different focus which completely change your look and shape. It’s amazing what can be achieved with clothing, colour, texture and accessorising to complete a very confident, comfortable, stylish woman.  (refer to my clients page)
