The Canadian Image Company is home to the most modern approach of Image Consultancy in the industry. As an Image Consultant and Life Coach based in Calgary Alberta, we offer image consultant services as well as makeovers to individuals who want to look and feel their best.

Our services are designed to value your specific image, making it suitable to your personality, lifestyle and budget. We keep ourselves up to date with the latest styles and trends helping you translate them into “every day wear” outfits.
Why is our image so important?
We all know that first impressions are critical in society today. According to a series of experiments by Princeton, Psychologists determines it takes less than three seconds to form an impression of a stranger. Longer exposures don’t significantly alter those impressions. How you project and present yourself has a profound effect on your relationships, career and personal life.
Your Image is an introduction that truly reflects who you are and one that can leave a positive and long lasting impression on others. We are not all Fashionistas or Stylists. And we don’t have to be. But being proud of the way you look, and more importantly, the way you feel about yourself has a direct effect on your confidence and your belief in your abilities.

What Our Customers Say
The Canadian Image Company gave my look and wardrobe just the boost it needed. As a young professional, I tend to wear a lot of black and white and felt that I needed a bit of colour in my wardrobe. How interesting to see which colours suits me best! I do not spend a lot of time doing my makeup, what I found so helpful was that she took this into account and taught me how to do my morning makeup in 5-10 minutes. What a major difference this made in my overall look without changing my personal style. I have recieved so many compliments. Thank you for breathing some new life into my look!
– Elizna
I highly recommend Ilse. I had a colour consultation and a wardrobe consultation – It was a very positive experience. I am a 37 – year old mom of two and I have always known what I like and how I want to dress, but then I got a little older and my body changed after I had kids. I realized that I had a wardrobe full of clothes, but I was wearing the same things over and over again. I was buying clothes that I liked, but never wore, because it just didn’t work for my body. A consultation with Ilse was exacty what I needed. She gave me practical tips on how to wear the clothes that I already have and very valuable knowledge to help me make future purchases that will make me look my best. Her honesty and knowledge of her field, made this a great experience. I feel empowered and confident, and getting dressed is now a happy task!
– Marise
With Ilse’s help I have changed the way I buy clothes and dress myself. She helped me find the colours that compliments me most and clothing styles that best suit my body type. She helped me sort through all my clothes, shoes, and jewelry in my closet. It is wonderful to know that what I have in my wardrobe, I can now wear wih confidence.
I thank Ilse for giving me a fresh start. Her help has made a huge difference in my life. Getting dressed is now fun again and I highly reccommend Ilse for any help you might need with your wardrobe or appearance.
– Hermelize
I spent a wonderful day with Ilse to update my style. We did a colour consultation and I realized colours that suit me are now completely different than what they were when I was younger. We then pinpointed a style that fits my personality, that I am comfortable in and now suits my body (3 kids later).
I know have access to a personalized website that identifies the right fit of clothing for me. We went through my wardrobe and she recommended getting rid of some pieces that just weren’t working and identified some opportunities to keep my wardrobe simple and versatile.
We then went shopping to fill the gaps! I know feel so much more confident about choosing something to wear in the morning. I highly recommend this service! Especially for busy moms who need to take some time to focus on themselves
– Megan
Ilse, I am so thankful that I met you! You are such a uniquely talented person. The Colour consultation was something that I longed for through all these years. Now, I have such a wide range of colours that I know looks amazing on me. The makeup lesson was so crucial as I received the recommendations that I wasn’t able to receive from Youtube videos. And let’s not forget your personal guidance – I felt so good about myself leaving our consultations. You are a miracle on your own.
