Bio and Experience

My name is Rachel Gordon. I was born in Belize and migrated to the United States after two years of college. While living in Brooklyn, N.Y. I started my retail career at Macys as manager of ReadyTo-Wear and then on to a Human Resource Manager position. In ready to wear I learned about style, fit and fabric. I also learned exceptional customer service. It was at that time I knew my dream was to one day become self-employed in the fashion world. Recently I relocated to Sarasota, Florida where I was employed first as a Fashion Stylist at J.C. Penney then as manager for Women Ready-To-Wear. I knew the time was now to pursue my dreams. I recently graduated as a Personal Shopper from Fashion Stylist Institute. I believe with my new found confidence I will be successful to educate and satisfy my new customers.

Consultant has certified with Fashion Stylist Institute and is qualified to work with private, individual and corporate clients.

Testimonial

Dear Staff, I decided to entire another phase of my life, and being in the world of retail for quite a while, I knew I wanted to be a personal image consultant. After doing my research, excitement started building as I enrolled on line at Fashion Stylist Institute. I had never taken an on line course. Thank you for being professionals from the very beginning and presenting a very effective and comprehensive course. There was never a time when I felt stressed or overwhelmed. You made that possible. I was able to print materials for every module. Gillian Armour was clear and specific with the information she delivered. Couldn’t have been any better. Even though as I previously mentioned, I had long retail experience in women’s wear, each and every module was an aha moment for me. Fashion is forever changing but the Personal Shopper course thought me how to help my clients maintain their individuality and uniqueness through clothing selection and personal appearance. I learned components that determine texture. I was skillfully thought how to dress different body shapes. I learned about cool and warm colors – in details. When the course began I didn’t know what to expect. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to develop myself as a professional. I will forever be grateful through this course, for the knowledge and confidence I have gained. I am proud to be a graduate of Fashion Stylist Institute. Rachel Gordon
