Giselle Demers – Professional Image Consultant

Hi, I’m Giselle Demers and as an image consultant and personal stylist, I can enhance your appearance and take you on a journey that will bring you and your wardrobe from ordinary to extraordinary and have you looking great and feeling fabulous in your clothes.

I am not a cookie-cutter stylist, all my image solutions are tailored just for you. I will show you how strong an effect you have on yourself and others through your choice of colors & clothes. When you and I work together, you will learn about what works best for you, your body type, figure, personality, and goals. Feeling good about how you look can translate into higher self- esteem, body acceptance, peace of mind, increased income and credibility in your profession.

I’ve been fascinated with color & clothes ever since I can remember. It probably started with my first Barbie doll – I had so much fun playing with her clothes! I can also remember painting my toenails different colors with my Crayolas when I was a little girl. Then in high school, some students thought that I was wealthy (even though I wasn’t!) because I was very creative with my clothes. (e.g. cutting fringes on a long brown skirt to go with my cowboy boots) and I could easily modify and create new looks with what I had in my closet. Similarly, in the corporate world, I was often complimented for my fashion savvy. When I left one company my colleagues asked “How are we going to know what to wear? You were our fashion guru.”

Some people are born musicians, others are born writers, or singers. My talent is coordinating colors, patterns and fabrics. I have a knack for easily creating different put-together outfits that are flattering and always current with the latest fashion…I’m never a slave to fashion…but I use fashion to create my unique outfits, thus creating my signature style. This is what I teach my clients, to discover their personality style and how they can develop their own unique looks. They love it!

In 2006, I became one of the first in Montreal to receive international recognition as a Certified Image Consultant through The Association of Image Consultants International (AICI). Since 2008 I have been the AICI Ambassador for Quebec, Canada and have served on the AICI Philanthropy International Committee for Image and Disabilities, helping men & women living with cancer feel better about how they look.

Image consulting is a profession that allows me to combine my natural artistic ability, my sense of color and style, my knowledge of sewing, my certification in aesthetics and my experience working in the corporate world. In fact, it was my experience working in sales, customer service and human resources that convinced me how absolutely critical our appearance is!

I saw firsthand how a person’s appearance could open doors or close doors. When you work with me, you will get the benefit of both my knowledge and my years of experience in the workforce.
