2. This project will give the description of Items that I would like to design and sell in my boutique
called LMarie’s Boutique and Spa.
1. I plan to sell high quality women’s clothing. My target market is women in the late 20’s
– 70’s. They desire well-made clothing that is fashion forward, and could be used from
day to night. These pieces are designed to minimize the areas that have gotten
shapeless.
2. Sales Script:
Features: Most of the tops have builded in wide straps to support top heavy women. The
fabrics have a higher percentage of Lycra to help slenderize the frame. The breathable cottons
blends, and polyester blends are used to prevent women from being too warm. The necklines
shapes can help give them a sexier look. Bows, jeweled necklines, and long sleeve with slits, and
jeweled pieces on the sleeves.
The benefits of these tops are to uplift women’s spirit in fashion by putting extra detail in the
weight and style of the fabrics. They are not designed to cling, but not a lot of excess fabric as
well. Some collars have enough flexibility in them to stand or lay down. The neck lines will be in
a variety of styles to lengthen the neck, slender the face, and to draw attention to other areas
that are more flattering.
Color can be used to emphasize some features and draw attention away from others. Here are
some suggestions to make color work for you.
To appear smaller choose a cool color in a medium value and a less intense color for
large areas of your clothing. However, if you want to use warm colors in your wardrobe,
3. select shades of warm hues instead of intense values. (Example: Select rust instead of
orange; maroon instead of pink.)
If you like bright warm colors use them as accents at the neckline or in your accessories.
You might select a scarf or pin or collar which is emphasized because it contrasts with
the different value and intensity of your outfit.
Red may be your favorite color and it is becoming to you. Select a red blouse that will be
worn under a gray or navy suit. The red around your face will keep the focus on your face
rather than your not-so-perfect figure.
One-color outfits are generally slimming. When wearing two shades in one outfit, select
with care. Use the darker shade in the area you want to de-emphasize. The lighter shade
can be used to balance the larger areas.
An important factor to consider about color is to select colors that are becoming to you.
People with warm personal coloring will be more flattered by colors with warm (orange
or yellow) undertones. People with cool personal coloring will be more flattered by
colors with cool (blue or red) undertones.
Sales Script: The main sales script at LMarie’s is “How may we enhance your wardrobe today?”
