Gillian Armour - New Mexico Business Journal

New Mexico has a casual vibe when it comes to style, even in the business world. But if you’ve ever worn flip-flops into the boardroom, it could be time to turn yourself in to the fashion police.

Meet Gillian Armour. She promises to be kind.

Armour, president and owner of Gillian Armour Image Consulting, has built a career on helping the fashion-challenged dress to impress, shop with confidence and put their best foot forward — in appropriate shoes, of course.

Armour’s individual clients come to her for help with everything from a complete makeover to building an office-ready wardrobe.

She also has retail and corporate clients who pay her to educate their employees on the basics of professional dress and etiquette.
