Dress for Success Cincinnati solves the “Catch-22” that confronts women trying to enter the workforce: without a job, how can you afford an interview outfit? But without the outfit, how do you make a great impression at that interview?
Dress for Success Cincinnati became renowned for providing professional clothing to women returning to or entering the workforce. Although our mission has expanded, the StyleHER (formerly known as Suiting) program remains a crucial part of our work and a vital first step in your journey toward self-sufficiency.
As a Dress for Success Cincinnati client, we offer styling services for your upcoming interview as well as services when you land the job. During your styling appointment for your upcoming interview, you will receive two fabulous outfits, complete with shoes, accessories and a handbag. Once you are offered the job, you can return and be styled with 10 new pieces to start your new career in!
For styling appointments, call Kate at 513.322.1785 or email kblack@dfscincy.org.
Women come to Dress for Success Cincinnati from a range of non-profit organizations or by filling out a request for services for themselves. As a client, you will work one-on-one with a highly trained volunteer Personal Stylist who will help you select professional attire and also provide support and encouragement.
Most of the clothing in our Style Studio comes from women who donate with the desire to help another woman succeed.
