Tell me more about outfit photos…
The goal of Outfit Photos is to empower a client to wake up, quickly glance at a photo of her clothing and accessories on her phone or tablet, and choose her outfit for the day. Each client receives a password protected webpage that include her outfit photos so that she can access them day or night. Outfit photos include a client’s new and existing pieces- from clothing to accessories. Every item in an image works with every other item in that photo, making it easy to pack for trips or maximize every piece.
Starting in February, 2023, we upped our outfit game and started photographing individual pieces, rather than one photo of multiple pieces. You can see our current approach with Isa’s Outfits.
For clients in the Seattle area, we will take the photographs, edit them and make outfits. For folks out of Seattle, the client takes the photos and we do the rest. So YES you still have access to high quality, accessible outfits.

Approach: Visiting Delight’s closet was like going on an adventure at an exclusive new boutique. There were layers and layers of clothing, most of it jammed in and hidden behind other options. I could see why she was overwhelmed. Surprisingly, she never wore 99% of her pieces. With a job in technology, she ended up opting for leggings and a sweaters most days despite having the freedom at work to up her game and still fit in. Our plan was to kick her shopping habit and instead teach her to shop from her own closet and bring new life to treasured pieces with the help of a great tailor.
In her words:
I've always loved clothes, but hated getting dressed--until I met Mellicia. I decided to hire Mellicia because I was tired of wading through an overstuffed closet full of clothes--many that I never wore--and I didn't want to buy new clothes but instead wear the items that I already owned. Mellicia helped me refine my style and use that as a guide to determine what to keep. After cleaning out my closet she helped me breathe new life into dated pieces by bringing her tailor to my home where Mellicia and the tailor used their expertise to update each piece and ensure that it was modern, reflected my style, and fit properly. As a busy working mom I appreciated that the tailor then came back to my house and had me try each piece to ensure the proper fit. This was an amazing service and I loved that I could extend the life of clothing I really liked and was shocked by how much better the clothing fit after it was tailored to me. And did I mention that I didn't buy one new thing as a result of working with Mellicia? The result is that I feel like I have a brand new wardrobe but didn't spend a dime on new pieces! Mellicia not only changed my closet, but my life.
