Hey Guys,

Nice to meet all of you!
A little about myself. I am an image consultant for men out of Vancouver B.C. Canada.

I am currently in the process of build a brand called Rags to Riches and would like your opinion
On something.

I am wondering what is the number one thing preventing men from reaching there potential when it comes to dressing and fashion?

Example - Money, Knowing how to put things together, What colors work best for you Ect ...

I want to see where each of your sticking points are so that I can start helping and getting to know everyone here on style forum.

Cheers
Brett

Well, probably the biggest barrier for most participants on teh StyleForvm to be able to dress better is a member called mensimageconsultant.

I think a little Ragged Dick just might be what the doctor ordered.

Brett (If I may,) I think that changing the name of your brand to, "Riches to Rags," might be both more accurate...and more compelling.

BTW, I will not charge for that piece of advice.

tell me if I'm presumptuous but shouldn't the answer lie in Your realm of expertise

1. Those who can afford it, don't know what to buy
2. Those who know what to buy, don't know how it should fit
3. Those who know what to buy how it should fit and can afford it, can't make it look good
4. Those who can & do just don't care.

Where does one get the certification necessary for this "image consultant" position? There must be a large un-met demand for such services. I'll bet I could carve out a pretty nice position here on The Plains.

Could the OP please put me in contact with the proper intsitution so I can begin my studies? I sincerely hope they offer their course via correspondence, or through night school.
