(Jenny Cutler, MD of ImageCounts commenting on Toshiko's personal shopping)

Toshiko is a truly international women of exceptional taste and style. She knows London better than most Londoners.

 

(Peta Heskell, The Flirt Coach)

Toshiko is an image consultant and it shows. I was delighted by her amazing sense of dress and wanted to rip her suit from her back and take it home. It was so gorgeous. She obviously has a real feel for design and image.

(Flight Attendant, Female, 30s, Image Consultancy Training Course)

Toshiko, thank you very much for all your help and support during my Foundation Course in Image Consultancy. I feel very privileged I got the opportunity to train with you. Your lovely personality and professionalism made it really pleasant and interesting. You are an excellent teacher and mentor. Thank you so much! 

 

(Housewife, Female, 50s, Image Consultancy Training Course)

You enthused me with your skill and professionalism and have given me the energy to cross the threshold of my dream. I really enjoyed the 10 days in your company and gained enormously. I am so glad that I chose to come to you.

 

(Intererior Consultant, Female, 30s, Colour Analysis Modular Training)

Really enjoyed the three days with you-I was pleased to discover that there was alot more to 'colour' than one might think. Your training was thorough and clear with good course notes and plenty of practise! I was very impressed with the amount of models used as this proved invaluable to the training. Overall, I feel confident that my new colour analysis skills will be a very good addition to my business offering and hopefully clients will feel the same! 

 

(Music Producer, Male, 30s, Image Consultation)

Many thanks for your report - it's a valuable tool to have, very helpful to give things some focus and direction. Thanks also for the contacts re hairstyle and tailoring... I am meeting up with someone from the shirtmakers tomorrow when I'm in London as it happens, and I've made an appointment with the tailor. I'd like to have made a copy of that light green jacket and the black striped zipper jacket which I brought along to you - except measured properly for my size.

 

(Management Consultant & Snowboarder, Male, 20s, Image Consultation & Personal Shopping)

Thanks for sending the profile report. It's great. I will keep on reading it over my life.

 

(Investment Banker, Female, 30s, Compact Course & Personal Shopping)

Thanks again for the experience. I am very pleased with my wardrobe additions. I am now just working out how to integrate them into my existing wardrobe, but doing okay so far. Do drop me an email in Aug/Sept, so we can plan a autumn/winter shop.

 

(Company Director, Male, 40s, Wardrobe Planning)

Many thanks for both coming today. It was wonderful and truly uplifting as well as being very valuable!

 

(Fashion Designer, Female, 40s, Image Consultancy Training Course)

Thank you for being a fantastic teacher and you are just fabulous!

 

(Housewife, Female, 40s, Compact Course & Personal Shopping present from husband)

I have been enjoying my new clothes and have received a lot of compliments...especially on the shearling jacket. I definitely feel much more in touch with fashion now! Thank you for your help.

 

(Model, Female, 30s, Image Consultancy Training Course)

Thank you so very much for the last two-weeks training and for helping me so much to discover what my next step is in life....I have thoroughly enjoyed your course and won't forget your patience and calmness during my learning process! Wishing you much success and happiness....

 

(Health Service, Sisters, 30s, Colour Analysis at Durley House Hotel)

My sister and I had a great time with you on that Friday. We really enjoyed it. We only went to Yo Sushi afterwards at Harvey Nics and then bought some make-up there too. Didn't have the energy to go clothes shopping but I have bought myself a couple of "deep-muted" coloured clothes in Jigsaw recently. I also chose my wedding dress today which I am really pleased with. Thanks again and we hope to be back in the future.

 

(Company Executive, Female, 50s, Image Consultation)

I really enjoyed our time together and found the experience very useful. I would at some point like to arrange a shopping trip with you but I may leave it until the New Year after I return from Australia. My wardrobe by then will be in dire need of replacing  for the springs/summer. Be in touch.

 

(IT specialist, Female from Milan, 40s, Tourist Package - a surprise birthday present from her friends who requested a one day pampering trip in London with a chauffeur taking her around boutiques, beauty salon and restaurant)

=Message from one of her friends=

I would like to thank you so much for the great time that my friend had in London and for all the perfect organisation. My friends here were also very, very enthusiastic and happy. Thanks alot. I will keep you in my records for anything else we might require. She bought beautiful things... very very nice... especially the one from the Japanese designer. I love it too!

 

(Counsellor, Female, 40s, Image Consultancy Training Course)

I thoroughly enjoyed the training course! Toshiko is a very knowledgeable and gifted image consultant. She is also warm, friendly and sincere in wanting her trainees to succeed in practicing image consultancy. I learned a lot and feel confident that I can begin practicing, having required a good grounding in image consultancy. I recommend the course without my reservations, and indeed have already made recommendations to two people.

 

(Luxury Boutique Sales Assistant, Male from Scotland, 19, Image Consultancy Training Course)

It was a fantastic course and totally worth the money. I felt that I have learned a lot from you. You are a great teacher and I was able to absorb and understand what you said with ease. I liked the structure of the course and the way it was approached was very accessible. I must admit that coming from a fashion background I had, for some reason, expected the course to be more fashion based than it was. However, I think that your approach, that of styling the individual for their personal style, was great and I learned to look at things differently - and try to understand what suits a person's body and style rather than trying to adapt and transform them into something that is up to the minute but not necessarily them. I have now adopted this approach into my selling techniques at work and I must say it has worked very well for me - being able to quickly look at someone and determine their bone structure and what is therefore going to work best on them. I have also used this method to better advise customers on how to achieve a balanced look. My sales figures for this last week are testimony to this! Your knowledge on all aspects of it was fantastic and I certainly felt confident that you know what you were talking about. I also much appreciated your advice on how to move forward and on what avenues I can pursue.

 

(Fashion School Student, Female, 30s, Image Consultancy Training Course)

I want to thank you for the training. I would recommend it. I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to start working soon.

 

(Dentist, Female from Saudi Arabia, 30s, One Day Personal Shopping)

It was a very nice experience going shopping with you. I enjoyed it and it was very organised. I recommended you to my husband. He will come to London at the end of August. Thank you also for sending me the addresses for the swimwear shops.

 

(Entrepreneur, Male from Cyprus, 30s, Image Consultancy Training Course)

Hi Toshiko, I am back in hot and sunny Cyprus. This is to thank you for your support during the training. You have excellent communication skills and a way to transfer knowledge to people that is unique. I hardly had to go to the manual for help as your tips and the way you structured the course was amazing! Once again thank you and hope to see you soon. 

  

(Housewife, Female, 70s, Image Consultation)

I was overwhelmed when my friend said to me, "You're looking gorgeous and very chic these days!" This is thanks to the image consultation that I had with Toshiko. I am a 72 year old grandmother, but I'd like to look and feel beautiful in my own way. Thank you so much.
