Let’s discuss what is wrong with Baz’s professional image-
When I met Baz, the first thing I noted was his bubbly personality; he was so easy to get on with. The colours and clothes you wear reflect how you come across. Here, Baz is not showing off his shape, happy personality or colouring with his clothes. This will affect how he comes across in front of his clients when coaching his business clients.
Suit - is too large and not fitting him properly, making him look larger in size. The jacket is too long for his proportions.
Colour - the black makes him look very hard and serious, going against his true personality.
Shirt and tie - the blue shirt is too cool for his colouring and the scale is too small. The tie is also too cool and the design does not work with his contoured features.
Glasses - these could be a better shape, colour and design to match his personality, face shape and features.
The result -
What a difference! Baz looks slimmer, fresher, and modern. After a brand styling consultation, we improved his professional image through education on colour, style, and communication.
Suit - he chose a lighter suit to match one of his true colour characteristics and a suit that fits him better.
Waistcoat - the waistcoat gives a tailoring classic, elongating his tummy and adding interest to his outfit.
Colour - the colour looks so much better than black, communicating warmth and approachability; it is perfect for Baz presenting in front of an audience.
Shirt and tie - he is now wearing a better-quality shirt that fits him well. The tie has a lovely texture in a warm pink that works with the blue suit and his skin tone.
Glasses - they are a better choice of design and colour, making him look modern and much younger. The plastic material and blue colour shorten his long face, balancing his facial proportions.
Now I see Baz communicating his personality; what a wonderful, happy smile.

I felt quite conscious as a man going to meet her.
-
I am so glad I took the step. People comment about how much younger I look and how sharper my clothes are. I feel more confident with myself, and it has improved the way I feel in front of my audience.
