Twin Cities Wardrobe Consultant
Hello. My name is Kathy and I love meeting new people and helping women (and men) grow more confident in whom they are in their everyday wardrobe, or dressing for that special event. I've always had a love for fashion but, I've also lived through physical transitions after having children and gaining weight and know the frustration of learning to dress an evolving figure. My education in outfitting others started when working retail fitting rooms and moved on to be the longest standing stylist to work under business founder, Carly Gatzlaff, at A La Mode Wardrobing. When Carly chose to follow a new dream, I chose to go independent and here you find me.

Over the years, working with women in their wardrobes, helping them grow more confident in styling themselves has brought me joy. I specialize in working with executive professionals. My clients are Congress Women, State Judges, CEOs, Marketing Managers, Bankers, Professors, International Lawyers, Interior Designers and they are also stay-at-home mom's managing their families and home businesses.
In the past few years we've seen a shift to a more casual wardrobe at work. But, I'm seeing a swing back to a desire for a more structured look that exudes professionalism and authority. There's a psychological affect when we dress for respect that gives us a boost in confidence. With that said, the options for more comfortable fabrics in professional attire are available more now than ever.
I am a wife of 39 years, a mom of three (ranging in ages from 22 to 37) and a grandma of two absolutely beautiful grand daughters. I understand the different hats moms wear and the need for versatile wardrobing; running from the office to the kid's soccer game, or traveling and dinner meetings. I want to help you be confident and comfortable in your clothing whatever the occasion. I'm here to help you find the styles that fit your body type and lifestyle.
