Style for your Shape

I have an opportunity for work experience/volunteering at Style for your Shape to assist with the upcoming Fizz & Fashion Events as well as a photoshoot, which would be a great opportunity for someone studying Fashion Management or Marketing (or similar courses). Unfortunately things with our 6-week planned placement opportunity haven't worked out and I'm now in a position to offer work experience to someone either for one-off events or for a few weeks which will provide great practical hands on experience of working in a size inclusive business. Key Dates: Fri 7th March - Fizz & Fashion Charity Event, Elgin, Mansefield Hotel (opportunity to help backstage to get models ready on the 7th & shoot social media content of the day. If available to travel and stay over on Thurs 6th there are personal styling sessions booked in Elgin on 6th, travel & hotel costs will be covered) Fri 21st March - Fizz & Fashion Charity Event, Aberdeen, Union Kirk (opportunity to help backstage, dress models and shoot social media content for the day). There are fittings on Sun 9th March instore which can attend if available to see personal styling first hand. Sunday in March (date to be confirmed with prepartion work in advance), plan and prepare for a size inclusive photoshoot. Take guidance from myself on the content to be included and coordinate the photoshoot. These are all fantastic opportunities that previous RGU placements students have had great value from and I'd still like to provide an opportunity to someone even if it's not on an official 6 week placement. These will be great events to add to a CV and happy to be a reference for future opportunities. This is for someone age 18+ If you are interested or know someone who might be, please share this with them. I can be contacted at victoria@styleforyourshape.com with any questions or applications.

The team that bring Style for your Shape to life 💜 Victoria couldn't run the business without these ladies. Every one of us is passionate about helping you feel confident and look fabulous. Come visit us in our new home in the Trinity Centre, open Tues-Sat 10am-5.30pm

It's our last day at 2 Schoolhill 🥹 and last day of our fantastic outlet sale. We're open on Saturday 1st Feb 10am-5pm and look forward to welcoming you for our last day in our current home. It's bittersweet for us as this is where our dream became a reality in 2022, sadly it hasn't worked out how we had hoped in this location and we're onto a brighter chapter in the Trinity Centre 🤞🏻 Our instore experience will be closed 2nd-7th Feb as we kit out our new store and will be ready to reopen on Saturday 8th February in the previous Debenhams unit (the front section, not all 3 floors 😅). Make sure you've signed up to our subscribers list as we will be launching a special subscribers only invite next week - including a discount for our new store opening! You will be able to shop online when we are closed and we will still be shipping orders as normal - https://lnkd.in/e6ZA_Ycc Can those who have orders to collect instore please do so today 💜 Thanks for all your support as always, Team SFYS

🌟 WE'RE MOVING! 🌟 We have some big news to announce, we're relocating our Aberdeen store from 2 Schoolhill to the Trinity Centre. This is an exciting move for us and we look forward to welcoming our existing customers to our new store. We will be based in the previous Debenhams unit as we are collaborating with WeToo! and Trinity centre to utilise the Collabz space. Here is everything you need to know! Last day of trading at 2 Schoolhill: Sat 1st Feb First day of trading in Trinity Centre: Sat 8th Feb Outlet is running from now until Sat 1st Feb, with up to 75% off items as we get ready to have beautiful new stock for you in our new space. Come and visit us or shop online to grab a bargain. https://lnkd.in/eJ_XufjQ We will be online trading only from 2nd Feb - 7th Feb Quote from Victoria Mutch, Founder & Director “I’m excited for our move to Trinity Centre and to start the next chapter of our journey. It’s been no secret that things have been tough the last 18 months since the introduction of traffic measures, bus gates and subsequently LEZ. When the opportunity arose to have space in the Trinity Centre, it was an easy decision to move to a higher footfall area. There are fantastic businesses in the city centre and we are all trying our best in the current challenging circumstances. I look forward to welcoming our existing customers to our new store and hopefully get to meet lots of new customers too. I’m grateful to Trinity Centre and WeToo! for working together to provide a great opportunity for my business and would like to thank Bon Accord Centre for their support over the last 2.5 years.” Read full press release here - https://lnkd.in/edkM8UPR

4 YEARS OF SFYS 💜 It's incredible to look back and see how far the business has come since Oct 2020. Starting the business in a pandemic was definitely a risk, but it has paid off! From Victoria running the business from her spare room, live in the Lobby and pop-ups all over Aberdeen and the Shire to opening our first shop in Aberdeen in July 2022, it's been a rollercoaster. What started as a team of 1 is now a team of 5 and all the girls share Victoria's passion for helping women feel confident and look fabulous, no matter their size! 2024 has been our most challenging year yet thanks to the council and their traffic measures drastically reducing city centre footfall, but we pivot and we're working in growing the business again - hopefully with a new location opening in 2025 🤞🏻 As always we wouldn't be here without our customers, new and existing! Our loyal community are what has kept us going through the challenges and look forward to continue bringing size inclusive fashion & personal styling to the high street. We hope to see you instore soon 💜 #4years #anniversary #styleforyourshape #Aberdeen #aberdeenhighstreet #popups #growth #smallbusiness #businessanniversary #shopaberdeen #sizeinclusive #sizeinclusiveshopping #sizeinclusivefashion #allsizes #plussize #plussizefashion #womenfounded #womenled #femalefounder https://lnkd.in/eCJBBTCg - watch 90 seconds of SFYS from last 4 years.

Thank you to everyone who came and supported our pop-up in Elgin at the weekend! It was fab sharing the space with Whispers with their Swimwear and McClintock Optical Styling Boutique with their eyewear. It was a great setup and fantastic to see so many people shopping local. Hopefully we will be back before Christmas with lots of party wear, evening outfits, knitwear and every day wear. In the meantime you will find us in Aberdeen at 2 Schoolhill, AB10 1JX (the street that runs between Bon Accord and St Nicholas centres, just next to pedestrian crossing) and online at styleforyourshape.com.

Exciting news - Style for your Shape pop-up is coming to Elgin in September! We will be based in a unit in the St Giles centre on Fri 13th and Sat 14th September (possibly the Thursday too, but we will confirm nearer the time). We have quite a large space and I'd like to open the opportunity up for another small business to join us at the pop-up - free of charge. If you'd be interested in your business joining us for the Fri/Sat in Elgin, send an email to Victoria at info@styleforyourshape.com or send a message on Facebook/Instagram. We'll announce more info on the dates, location etc later in the week 💜
