What is an image consultant?

Image consultants are specialists who help men and women improve their personal presentation or appearance, often to achieve greater success in the workplace. Image consultants who work with corporate clients often emphasize appropriate office attire and business communications skills. Some image consultants are certified by the professional organization, Association of Image Consultants International (AICI).

We work with image consultants at Moi-Meme to help expand our geographical reach and also to give the image consultants more direct access to custom-tailored clothing for women. Check out our image consulting partners >>

What does “petite” really mean?

We received an email this week from a woman inquiring about the definition of “petite” and we thought it was time to address the unusual nature of the term.

Petite is a very peculiar term in the fashion industry. While petite translates from French as “small,” in apparel it specifically means 5’4″ or shorter, without regard to shape. So, yes, it is very possible to be both plus-sized (dress size 14+) and petite (5’4″ or shorter).

Custom Pant and Skirt Hem Lengths

Floodwater pants? School-marm skirts? No more!

In our new made-to-order Personal Fit sizing system, you can not only select your height (petite, average or tall), you can also request custom lengths for your pant and skirt hems. That way you can order your pants pre-hemmed for high heels or flats and have your skirt made to sit just where you like it on your knee.

Oh, and you can do the same for your jacket and shirt sleeves!
