Customer Reviews
See what some of Jane's customers are saying
I am bolder and braver in my fashion choices
"When I started on this course with Jane, I felt stuck, limited and dull. I wore the same old thing to try to hide my weight, hid behind a standard “uniform” which was easy at work and was starting to feel really mumsy at nearly fifty years of age. I decided to work with Jane as I liked her approach. | can’t say I've ever had a huge interest in fashion, but I knew I didn’t want to look frumpy and middle aged before my time, and I had to explore alternatives to widen my horizons before I became totally stuck and Jane’s approach suits me. She doesn’t push and tell me that I will only suit one thing and Id be crazy to try anything else, she listens, she encourages, she inspires and she has opened my eyes to new possibilities.
I had no idea about body shape, what would or wouldn't suit me, colours, and fabrics - not a clue! Now I am much more aware of what I wear and how it will look on me. I enjoy seeing clothing on other women who have body shapes that are completely different to mine, as they can wear things that I will never wear. I am much more accepting of where I am and not letting myself be limited by my weight. I am bolder and braver in my fashion choices and am enjoying building a style that works just for me."
