Give Yourself the Right Tools for the Job
Clothes are tools, and they function the same way all tools do. Some clothes help you navigate certain situations more effectively, and some get in the way. You’ve been putting clothes on your body for so long, though, that you might have decided that there’s no such thing as “the right outfit” for any occasion, or that all clothes are essentially the same. That couldn’t be further from the truth!
You wouldn’t use a vegetable peeler to assemble your furniture. You wouldn’t use a rotary phone to take selfies from your car. The proper tool provides us with the most effective support when doing a job.
Some clothes are screwdrivers, some are USB ports, some are pruning shears – every piece of clothing has a different impact on you, especially in a high-stakes moment. No matter your prior experience with clothing, you will be amazed at the impact the right garment can have in the right moment.
Your Empowered Outfit
The right clothes empower you so that in important moments, the very best of yourself is on display, and you show up as authentically you. It’s incredibly valuable to have clothes in your closet that can activate that potential. But how do you identify them?
Stylists, fashion brands, and clothing stores might tell you that they know what clothes will help you achieve your best in those moments – but nobody knows you like you do. The most powerful outfit you will ever wear is one you have intentionally selected for yourself because it makes you feel like you can do anything.
Give It A Try with a Mini-Consultation
Is something important about to happen in your life? Are you
excited or scared about something upcoming? Getting engaged? Have a job
interview? Up for a promotion? Attending a disciplinary meeting or a court
hearing? Giving your big midterm presentation to your class of 4000
undergraduates?
Give yourself an assist in selecting an outfit that, when
the time comes, will make you feel as capable and confident as you possibly
can! Sign up for Garith Consultations’ Your Empowered Outfit service. In this
introductory engagement, we’ll briefly educate you on the basics of empowered
dressing, accompany you on a shopping outing to identify, purchase, and prep an
outfit for your upcoming happening, and support you in making sure that outfit
is ready to wear for your big day.
We’d wish you luck, but you won’t need it – in your clothes, you’ll already KNOW you can do it!

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our Empowered Dressing Services and how we can help you begin to consider and experience a better way of getting dressed.
Our experts work with you to discover what makes you the most uncomfortable or dissatisfied about your current way of getting dressed, and create a personalized strategy within our overall framework to help you find your way to a new approach which will ultimately boost your confidence, enhance your sense of self, and increase your enjoyment in shopping for and putting on clothing.
Our experts work with you to identify one catalytic garment that you may benefit from having in your wardrobe, linked to an upcoming priority, goal, or event of significant. Then we help you shop for, purchase, prepare for use, and ultimately actually dress in that garment even as the big moment, day, or event arrives.
Your clothing is with you all day, every day. Shouldn’t it reflect who you are, or inspire you to keep striving to become who you want to be? By revisiting your relationship with getting dressed, you can literally stock and refine your supply of the tools that will be with you as you encounter the rest of your life. Or, you know, you can just keep using your mom’s screwdriver as a fork because it’s comfortable and you don’t care that much anyway.
We take a playful and creative approach to dressing, guiding you through a series of exercises grounded in the real world necessity and constraints of putting on clothing. We’ll challenge your historic aches and pains, long-held but limiting beliefs and restrictions, and (no pun intended) hang-ups, reshaping your future perspective on the idea of your wardrobe. Check out the step-by-step overview of our process above.

About Tyson’s Research
The clothes we wear are in the room with us, no matter how we feel about them. Which means they’re part of the conversation we’re having with others. They also literally influence how we feel – the fabric touching our skin sends a 24/7 stream of sensory information to our brains. Why do so many of us think of getting dressed as a burden, an annoyance, or a source of fear? Shouldn’t we capitalize on the opportunity of wearing clothes that can help position us for the greatest possible shot at success in every moment of every day?
During his graduate studies in psychology, Tyson W. Garith studied the nature of the relationship between people’s attitudes about their clothes, on a scale from “necessary evil frowny face” to “incredible strategic resource for me and my future,” (a concept termed Fashion Fluency), and their capacity to support themselves during a difficult emotional time, on a scale from “in bed and useless to any and all hope” to “captain of my own national guard, and already deployed!” (a concept termed Self-Efficacy). The research revealed a fairly substantive link between the two states, where higher scores in Fashion Fluency tended to be correlated with higher scores in Self-Efficacy. While additional research is needed to codify the nature of this relationship and its potential impact on individuals who want to improve their relationship with getting dressed, the research underscored that this work has merit and can potentially benefit those who invest in pursuing a deepened understanding of these concepts. The Your Empowered Outfit and Your Empowered Closet services are a direct outgrowth of this research.
