I'm Jude, personal styling based in Melbourne and I work with men and women. I'm also the founder and the face behind Styling by Lumiere.
Style is something I have always been interested in, even as a child. Being stylish isn't about wearing all the latest fashion trends or designer clothes( although I do lie them in small doses). For me, being stylish means putting a look together that makes you feel great and confident. This is the approach I take when I work with my clients, no mater what their background.
I understand the importance of feeling confident, not in your ability but how you present yourself. I love helping everyday men and men gain confidence in their personal style. So in 2017, after a working in corporate for over 20 years I decided to start my own personal styling business, Styling by Lumiere.
Lumiere, in French has different meanings but they all relate to 'light'. For me, 'Lumiere' means 'to glow'. That's how I would like all my clients to feel after our style consultation. I love seeing them transform and gain confidence. For me this is the most rewarding aspect of being a personal stylist.
...They day I spent with Jude was a real eye opener. When I tried on the clothes she had selected for me i realised that I have a body shape to be proud of. I ended up buying an entire wardrobe, all of which fitted into my shopping budget (including a skirt, which I never would have worn before) and I felt so confident about my new look! It was the best feeling! ... - Jennifer
In my spare time, I love to travel when I can. When I do travel, I'd normally bring something home that is locally made that I can incorporate into my wardrobe. One of my weaknesses is shoes but I'm not sure if it is something I want to work on improving (insert wink). My go-to items to elevate any outfit are accessories. It's amazing what a pair of earrings, a belt or a pair of shoes can do to an outfit.
I would love to work with you to help you gain more confidence in your personal style, in a down-to-earth, caring and in honest way. I understand that hiring a personal styling that you don't personally know can be a scary thing. So why not read the testimonials of my clients to help you make that decision.
