Questions & answers

How much does a personal stylist in Lisbon cost?

Wardrobe Edit — from €226; Shopping With Me — from €226; Online Shopping & Outfits — from €200; Capsule Wardrobe — from €30; Style Consultation — from €90; Styling for Men — from €150. Prices are final, with no surprises: the preparation, the lookbook and the support afterwards are already in them. Payment by bank transfer.

Which service should I start with?

If the wardrobe is full and there is nothing to wear, start with a wardrobe edit. If you own very little, or you have just moved, start with a capsule wardrobe. If you are not sure what suits you and want to understand that first, start with a style consultation. If you need to buy things but do not want to walk around shops, that is shopping with me in Lisbon, or online shopping if you are elsewhere. There is a separate programme for men. Most people start with the edit: afterwards it is clear what is genuinely missing, and the shopping day gets short. More: svetstylist.com/en/services/wardrobe-edit.

I am not in Lisbon. Does this work?

Yes. The wardrobe edit, the consultation and the capsule all happen by video call from anywhere in the world, the same format, just in front of your own wardrobe over Zoom. Online shopping is fully remote by design: I send links to pieces from shops that deliver to your country. In person I work in Lisbon, with trips to Porto and other European cities by arrangement.

What do I leave with?

A lookbook: photographs of ready outfits built from your own clothes, so in the morning you open a picture and get dressed. A shopping list in priority order, what to buy first and what can wait. And an understanding of why one thing works and another does not, which is the part that lasts longest. After a shopping day you also have pieces that genuinely combine with what you already own, plus two weeks of support by message.

Will I have to buy a lot?

No, and it is a common worry. The point of an edit is not to send you to the shops, it is to make the clothes you already own work together. Often it turns out there is almost nothing to buy: what was missing were the combinations, not the pieces. If something really is missing it goes on the shopping list in priority order, and you can buy it yourself, without me.

I own almost nothing. Where do I start?

With a capsule wardrobe. There is nothing to edit, but building a small set from scratch where everything works with everything, for your climate and the week you actually have, is exactly what a capsule is. All online, from anywhere. More: svetstylist.com/en/services/capsule-wardrobe.

How long does it take?

A wardrobe edit and a shopping day are three to four hours each. A consultation is an hour to an hour and a half. A capsule takes five days to build, online shopping five to seven. Between the first message and the session there is usually a week or two, depending on how the dates line up.

How does the work start?

Message me on WhatsApp at +351 934 354 506 or on Instagram @svet.stilist and tell me what you would like to change. I will ask a couple of questions and suggest a format, which is sometimes not the service you had in mind. I reply within a day.
