I Gifted My Husband a Style Guide, Here's What Happened
Initial reaction: “WOW I’M SO HAPPY”
Secondary reaction: “I need those trousers”
Proud wife moment, ladies.
Celebrating a little throwback to that time I gracefully slid into my husband’s DM’s — #metontheinternet. The first thing that drew me in was his minimal, classic earth-toned style. He truly wore it so well…and still does ;)
Fast forward to two years later, when all my husband wanted was a way to send his birthday requests in one concise list to our family group chat. We all know what it feels like to open a nicely wrapped scratchy sweater. Our parents mean so well, but it will probably end up at the back of our closet, never to be seen on the street. Nevertheless, Fashivly style guides save the day, every time. I honestly don’t think there is a better way to request gifts. Picture the perfect, curated birthday list that is easy and FUN for your family members.
Let’s use my husband’s style guide experience as an example.
Stage 1: Questionnaire
Graham received a questionnaire that asked for all the deets. How would you describe your current style? What brands or pages are you inspired by? What is your price point? He laid out his goals and Fashivly got to work.
Stage 2: The Process
The team read the questionnaire, pulled pieces based on Graham’s body type, budget, and style preference (amazing!!!); and styled outfits meant to elevate his current look.
Stage 3: Delivery
Right on time for his birthday, Graham received a beautifully designed list of outfits, curated just for him.
Initial reaction: “WOW I’M SO HAPPY”. Secondary reaction: “I need those trousers”.
Proud wife moment, ladies. I’ve seen my husband excited, but this was different — he felt understood. For such a long time he felt inspired to expand his wardrobe, but he didn't know where to start. There were so many website searches, returns of items that didn’t fit the way he wanted, and honestly too many options.
With Fashivly, he was able to pour all of that inspiration into one questionnaire, and just a few weeks later, start ordering elevated outfits that gave him an new sense of confidence.
