Toni and Guy x Dress for Success Collaboration

On November 29th, Toni&Guy Vancouver and Dress For Success collaborated to transform the lives of 8 women.

Xmas came early for 8 lucky women from the YWCA and EMBERS (Eastside Movement for Business & Economic Renewal Society.) The 8 women were treated to a complete make-over from Toni&Guy Vancouver and Dress For Success. The 8 women spent the morning at the Toni&Guy Vancouver salon getting their hair cut and colored. In the afternoon, the women were whisked away to the Dress For Success warehouse for a complete wardrobe make-over. Once an outfit was picked, it was back to the Toni&Guy salon for make-up.

To end the day, the women were treated to a one-on-one photo shoot with fashion photographer Wilson Law.
