Runway ready! ๐Ÿ’ƒโœจ

What a beautiful morning we had on Sunday! We teamed up with Taking Shape Chartwell for their inaugural national Dress for Success support event - and it was absolutely wonderful!

Huge thanks to Taking Shape for choosing to support our mission and for making this an annual event across Aotearoa! And to everyone who donated clothing, handbags, and funds - your generosity is helping change lives in the Waikato.

Our volunteer models were styled to perfection by the amazing Taking Shape team on Friday (thanks Carol Ann!), and absolutely shone on the runway Sunday! What an incredible group of wฤhine. ๐ŸŒŸ

Thank you for such a special, uplifting morning. We're already looking forward to next year!

What a beautiful surprise! ๐Ÿ’•

Michelle Rae from Volunteering Waikato dropped in last Thursday with a gorgeous basket of goodies for our incredible volunteers.

Our volunteer stylists are the heart and soul of everything we do at Dress for Success Hamilton - and it means so much to have their dedication recognised by Volunteering Waikato.

Thank you Michelle and thank you to every single volunteer who gives their time, talent, and aroha to support women in our community. You make the magic happen! โœจ

"I didn't have any suitable clothing for working in an office space. They equipped me with clothing that fitted me, and made me feel happy in my own body." - Jovi Taylor

When 20-year-old broadcasting student Jovi posted in a Facebook group asking for office wear, two neighbours directed her to us. She was nervous at first, unsure if she'd even qualify - but she did, and it changed everything.

Today, Jovi is thriving in her dream internship, wearing her Dress for Success pieces daily, and recommending us to others - including her own sister.

This is what we're here for. ๐Ÿ’•

Jovi's dressing was made possible thanks to the generous support of the Annette Presley Dream Foundation.

We hope every mum felt celebrated yesterday! ๐Ÿ’•

Here at Dress for Success Hamilton, we celebrate and support mums every week - because we know that behind every confident woman stepping into her career is often a whole whฤnau cheering her on.

Meet Tiana, who came to see us on Friday with her beautiful 6-month-old tamaiti by her side. She's preparing for her student teaching placement and needed professional attire to start this exciting chapter.

"Awesome service and even better customer service" - Tiana

We loved being part of your journey, Tiana! Watching you walk out ready to inspire the next generation of learners - with your little one right there with you - is exactly why we do what we do.

To all the mums balancing study, work, family, and everything in between - we see you, we support you, and we're here to help you succeed. ๐ŸŒŸ

โœจ Five years of Julie! โœจ

Yesterday we celebrated one of our most beloved volunteers, Julie, who has been showing up for the women of Dress for Success Hamilton for five whole years. ๐ŸŒผ

When Julie moved to Hamilton, she began looking for community and found her people here. She started as a stylist and now volunteers in our preloved store Rosy. In her own words, just being around uplifting women helped her feel more at home and confident in herself. That's exactly the magic we hope every woman who walks through our doors experiences too.

Julie, you are a gift to this mahi and to every woman you serve. Thank you for five beautiful years. ๐Ÿ’›

A huge thank you to Edible Blooms for gifting Julie the most stunning bouquet to mark the occasion โ€” what a special touch! ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿซ

โœจ We are so grateful! Two incredible donations have just come through for our boutique here at Dress for Success Hamilton.

A huge thank you to Ebbett for donating a brand new steamer - our old one was very much on borrowed time! And a heartfelt thank you to Fiona Michel, CEO of Braemar Hospital, for gifting us a new vacuum cleaner. You have no idea how much these will transform our day-to-day behind the scenes. ๐Ÿ™

Our boutique runs entirely on the generosity of people like you, and these donations mean we can continue presenting our clients with clothing that is fresh, clean, and ready to help them walk into their next opportunity with confidence.

๐Ÿ’› Could you help us next? We are currently on the lookout for larger handbags for our clients. If you have any sitting unused at home or in your business, we would love to give them a new purpose. Please send us a DM or drop into the boutique!

We are so excited to welcome Devony Baker to the Dress for Success Hamilton board! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ’›

Devony is a solicitor specialising in environmental and local government law at Harkness Henry, and brings with her a genuine passion for empowering wฤhine and creating positive change in our community.

What really lights us up about Devony is that her values and ours are so deeply aligned. She brings governance experience, a commitment to Te Ao Mฤori, and a collaborative spirit that will add so much to our mahi. She holds a Bachelor of Laws with First Class Honours from the University of Waikato and a Bachelor of Education from Te Wฤnanga o Aotearoa - and more than her impressive credentials, she brings real heart for equity, empowerment and access to opportunity.

We know she is going to be an incredible addition to the team. Welcome, Devony - we are so glad you are here! ๐ŸŒธ
