Today at lunch the Dalhousie department of management career services and the career services center hosted the first annual 'What Not To Wear' reveal event.
I was involved in this event because I was one of 4 judges on the selection panel for finding 4 Dalhousie students to partake in the event.
There were 2 male and 2 female participants. Each received a clothing makeover of $300, and also a makeup/hair/facial/manicure makeover.
There were 2 major sponsors of the event - Halifax Shopping Center which donated $1200 in gift cards for the event and Fred salon/cafe/art gallery provided Fred Conors (hair stylist, self esteem coach, and sytle coach for the transformations).
The event was held in the atrium of the Rowe Mangement building and was complete with a catwalk which each participant proudly walked down to show off their new business casual and corporate business attire.
This event was very fun to be a part of and I really do think that it gave the students involved in it a strong step towards being prepared for their future careers.
