WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
SUCCESS STORIES
"I really wanted to say a huge thank you to what you do and what the ladies do! I walked out feeling confident and actually started believing in myself. That new found confidence and self-belief was fundamentally what landed me getting a dream job, out of 170 applicants I was chosen and if it wasn't for my experience with Dress for Success, I think I would have lacked the self-esteem and confidence to really go for it and to truly believe that I had the stuff to stand out. So again, thank you - thank you! To everything you and the ladies do! I'm so appreciative of that support! I can’t say thank you enough!"

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
SUCCESS STORIES
"I was the grateful recipient of an interview outfit after a dressing appointment this morning (at 10am on the 2nd of April). I arrived slightly late, very flustered and embarrassed, after getting myself lost on the way to you. I hate to be late and was very conscious that it didn't make a great first impression, but your volunteers were so kind and gracious as I pulled myself together. I usually hate shopping and trying on clothes, and was very self-conscious about being dressed, but the stylists were so kind and dedicated to finding me an appropriate outfit. They pulled together some amazing clothes that are perfect for me, with coordinated colours and a flattering fit. My next step is to get a haircut with the discount voucher provided and then I feel that I will be ready for anything, stepping out in my new boots with confidence! Thank you again for your time and generosity, it is very much appreciated."

SUCCESS STORIES
"I’m just reaching out to thank the Christchurch boutique for your AMAZING service! I had never heard of Dress for Success until I met my sister for lunch yesterday. She’s been going through a really rough time and has been working hard on getting her feet back under her, constantly job hunting, interviewing and carrying the weight of financial insecurity. It was so beautiful to see her absolutely beaming and hear how your staff took care of her. She felt so special and spoilt and was overwhelmed with the generosity. She’s actually just accepted a job offer and was so relieved she won’t need to worry about buying work clothes because she just wouldn’t have had the capacity to do so right now.
You made her day and have relieved so much stress- I can’t thank you enough!
I hope you know the impact you’re having on these women’s lives.
