How would you describe personal shopping with Henry Wilfrid in 3 words?
"Fun, inspiring, mindset-changing"
How would you describe the results of us working together in 3 words?
"Simplifying, detoxing, positive"
What positive changes has it had on your life? Have you received any feedback from friends, family or work colleagues?
"Yes, also have bought very little since we shopped and anything I have had been to fill gaps in wardrobe. I feel more inspired by my clothes and have rediscovered old things. I feel much more confident in building a good wardrobe with quality pieces and have a renewed appreciation of tailoring and the impact that can have"
MORE ABOUT THE APPOINTMENT – Before we started working together Alexandra had an overwelming wardrobe stocked with items she had purchased over many years but struggled to pull complete outfits together due to the lack of foundation pieces.
If you recognise this frustration please get in touch and let's have a chat about how I can help.
"I feel more inspired by my clothes and have rediscovered old things. I feel much more confident in building a good wardrobe with quality pieces and have a renewed appreciation of tailoring and the impact that can have"
How did you find working with a male personal shopper? What would you tell someone who was potentially hesitant to do so?
"I didn’t have any issue with it and think it adds a different perspective (in a good way!)"
Which part of the process did you find most interesting or enjoyable? Why was this?
"The wardrobe review was very interesting and game-changing in terms of my mindset and approach. Shopping was really enjoyable though to be honest I enjoyed all interactions and work together, it was genuinely a pleasure"
Were there any parts of the process that you found less useful or enjoyable? If so, why?
"No"
Have you had any experiences with a personal shopper before me? (In-store, online or independent?) What were the noticeable differences?
"Not tied to a particular brand. Having visibility of my wardrobe really helped. I only worked with one in Selfridges before. Also felt no pressure to buy anything which was v different to first experience. However because I was in the mindset to buy I did!"
On a scale of 1 - 10 how likely are you to introduce me to a friend of colleague?
“10 out of 10"
