Janine Starkey

Janine spent the first five years of her career working at Egoli (Franz Marx Films) as head of the Wardrobe Department until 2002. Having experienced the art of styling, and how it can create and shape a character, Janine decided to shift her focus to include the everyday man and woman looking to find their own image and feel comfortable in their own style. And so in 2003 she started her own company.

But the idea of Styling and Image Consulting is not merely a business for Janine, it is a personal passion, one that has evolved out of a need to understand identity and see women and men be more than they dreamed they could be.

JANINE'S PERSONAL STORY

"I struggled with my weight all my life and had to learn how to dress my body to hide my flaws. My friends could not believe I was the weight I was and were always amazed that I still managed to look good and dress well.

I began writing down my tricks and trade secrets, and when I saw it all on paper I realized I had something to offer in the area of personal image consultancy. Then, at the same time a friend of a friend called me and asked me to help her through a difficult time. Her husband was having an affair, she had 2 girls to take care of and she desperately needed a change. She had a small shopping budget, but I couldn't wait to see what I could do within her means.

I completed the shop and revealed her new look and wardrobe to her. It affected her in a way that I can't describe in words. I saw how her self-image and confidence went through the roof. That was a real turning point for me, and that day a shift happened.

I knew I had a talent for shopping for women and a personality that was identifiable, and seeing how using my skill renewed and inspired a friend was all I needed to motivate me on a new path. I hope to share some of my experience and passion with you, so that you too can become ALL that you are."
