Full of elements with memories and associations that link us to a specific era of our life, or a ‘hat’ that we must wear. ‘This is my solicitor blazer, and these are my uni year ballerinas’. Somehow, the disparate elements coexist in the same wardrobe, but feel alienating. The lack of coherence makes us feel disconnected. Our wardrobes may have been cocoons of comfort but no longer serve us as such.

In keeping with psychoanalytic principles, the first step is a conversation about your lifestyle and routines, a ‘getting to know you’ through an analysis of your lifestyle, your personality and through scrutiny of your wardrobe, the element at the heart of the Dressing work.

We can do that online but we prefer to do it in the comfort of your own home. To find the scissions between the different components in your wardrobe, the dressing spheres of your day-to-day life that are often accompanied by items of clothing that might feel disconnected. Finding the disconnection between the different styles of your clothes and how you want the world to see you.

Our aim here is to link the person that emerges from the analysis with clothes that feel like a natural extension of your personality and history. This doesn’t mean a complete departure, but rather a reconfiguration of what is already there into a wardrobe that can make dressing a ritual that is effortless, coherent and exciting at the same time. We help you find fresh life in the clothes you already own, especially for those pieces you don’t know what to do with but you’re sure you love.

In this process of reconfiguration, we may identify items that no longer signify who you are today. While we believe in the meaningful circulation of objects – finding them a second life where possible – our primary aim is to ensure your wardrobe remains a collection of pieces that truly serve you. We help you establish a wardrobe with key pieces that it currently lacks, making coherent choices according to your lifestyle and routines that complement what you already have.
