Wardrobe Strategies for Women

This unique book provides scholarly and practical knowledge on the social-psychological aspects of dress image. It identifies exactly what clothing characteristics to look and how to proceed in building wardrobe. Focusing on individual creativity and flexibility, the read is asked to answer questions such as: What would work for me? Why? and How?, rather than approaching wardrobing from a do/don't or always/ never perspective.

Judith Rasband is the founder and CEO of Conselle Corporation and Director of the Conselle Institute of Image Management, an organisation involved in the creation of educational materials on appearance-related topics. She combines 30 years of experience in fashion education and business. A veteran educator, she has taught secondary-level, community college and university courses in clothing selection and construction.
