LKc Style gets a new Image Consultant!

Tuesday, March 22nd, 2011

“One should always dress for themselves, never for anyone else.”
Over the years this is the only piece of advice I’ll give without being asked. From working as a theatrical and historical costume designer on the southeast coast, from where I hail, to working in the world of luxury men’s goods and private collection clothing. Almost a decade in the business working for companies such as Bloomingdales, Kuhlman Company, and Michael Allen’s Clothiers. Three years in Portlandia now and still love everyday still seeing her through east coast eyes.
I can say I am more than thrilled to be joining Laura and the LKc Style team.

I am sincerely,
John R. Wickham

“We are thrilled to be bringing on John Wickham to the LKc Style consulting team! He has a wide breadth of experience in mens clothing styles, fitting, and tailoring. We understand not every man is looking for the woman’s touch in their clothing choices, so John will be an excellent fit to provide a variety of styling services to all of our clients. John will be working exclusively with our Portland area clients for personal shopping, closet consultation, and dating advisory services. Welcome John!”
–Laura Knepper, LKc Style Owner

So far, we’ve already had clients from coast to coast–good style is spreading! Get started on your new wardrobe today with a FREE initial consultation!

Here’s what one recent client had to say about LKc Style’s eWardrobing: “The first and second batch of clothes I’ve ordered have been great, thanks! The cuts of the shirts all fit well, even without tailoring them yet, and I’ve been getting plenty of compliments from friends and family over the last few weeks…Overall your service was just what I was looking for.” Here he is before and his sample eWardrobe:

BEFORE
N.Z. was doing pretty good with fitting clothes on his own body type, but was looking to upgrade his style to step up his business casual look when he meets with clients.

AFTER
N.Z. now has a corduroy blazer with some coordinating button downs, some closet staple ties and accessories along with some awesome sweaters and boots!

PR: Men’s Personal Shopping Arrives in Portland

LKc Style Men’s Personal Shopping Arrives in Portland

Portland, August 17–Men’s personal shopping company, LKc Style, is expanding to reach the Northwest market. Headquartered out of Chicago, LKc Style’s recent success in the Midwest has the company founder, Laura Knepper, planning for future creative and technological growth.

LKc Style helps men find their own style by evaluating their current personal situation and developing a wardrobe based on needs, goals, and aspirations or sometimes just to get their wife or girlfriend off their case. The company’s clientele include men seeking a style upgrade, usually on a budget. LKc clients are often starting new jobs, recently divorced, getting married, or going through other life changes requiring more attention to attire than most men have been willing to give in the past.

LKc services initially included in-store personal shopping after a free initial consultation with the client. But, with many requests from clients outside of Chicago, LKc considered expansion possibilities. New services include the StyleCAM for online closet consultations via Skype (user-friendly video phone conferencing), On Call picture text messaging consultations for dressing room advice, mail-order wardrobing with free shipping, and online clothing wardrobe portfolio creation. The services can all be purchased separately based on the needs of each individual client. While continuing to serve the Midwest clientele out of Chicago, Ms. Knepper will now be headquartered out of Portland during major portions of the year allowing in-person services upon request as well. For free advice, LKc Style writes a blog tracking do’s, don’ts, celebrity style on a shoestring, and even actual client before and afters—everything from that tie you saw on Entourage to what you should wear on a first date.

Ask yourself one question, would you get the job or the first kiss in what you are wearing now? If not, contact LKc Style today! Visit www.lkcstyle.com for details.
