Winter fashion at its finest!
This is Eva. She has accessed our programs twice now, coming back for a second styling to stock up on winter coats ready for her internship.
We think Eva looks great and her smile shows the confidence boost she had in being supported by Dress for Success.

We continue to be blown away by the generosity of our community!
Here is Chloe Cooper, pictured with our Boutique Coordinator Clare.
Today she delivered a whole rack of beautiful brand new items to our Boutique from her business Homeroom Design.
These will be lovingly gifted to our clients in the coming weeks and months, thank you so much!

This is Sophia and she is dressed and ready to go to an industry night as part of her studies and training.
At Dress for Success we don’t just support women going for interview and entering paid work, we also support women who are building their capacity to participate more in their community – whatever that looks like.
It might be volunteer opportunities, speaking at events or attending work placements or work experience.
All of these things require a level of personal presentation and most often, do not involve being paid for what you are doing. This is where we come in! We provide free clothing and confidence building to ensure that this barrier is removed for all women in Tasmania.
Participation in community can play a huge part in an individuals overall well-being and feeling of self confidence.

We love good news stories , and this one has all the feels!
Yesterday, we met Maggie. Maggie has recently relocated to Tasmania and has been looking for work.
She’s been applying for roles each week and when she received the positive news about an interview, she reached out to us.
We were able to fit Maggie in for an appointment straight before her interview. She spent an hour with our volunteers who generously shared interview tips and tricks and provided styling advice so that Maggie felt the most confident in the clothes she selected.
She finished the appointment feeling an instant impact, a boost in confidence and left with a quiet understanding that the volunteers and our team were all waiting back at the office for a positive outcome for her – none of the other candidates had their own private cheer squad!!!
She came back an hour later, excitedly sharing that they had offered her the position on the spot – she was beaming with pride!
The volunteers sprung into action and immediately provided an Employment Styling with Maggie taking away bags and bags of clothing, ensuring she is really to start her new role and knowing that what she would wear wouldn’t be a barrier to her success!
This is exactly why we exist! To empower women to achieve their goals. To build confidence and create powerful connections.
We won’t forget this interaction with Maggie, and we’re pretty sure she won’t forget us either

Interview’s can be so overwhelming. Remembering all the things you need to say, trying not to show your nerves. The last thing you need to worry about is what you are wearing – BUT the right outfit can make ALL the difference!
Our FREE programs are available for all women entering or re-entering the workforce.
