La Closette鈥檚 MT Meikle says that, for many reasons, now is the ideal time to focus on fashion, your wardrobe and personal style.

We may be challenged to find any positives about 2020, but 鈥渁wareness鈥� may be one of them. A greater awareness of our priorities, our family and friends, our essentials, our homes and our personal selves. While our personal physical interactions may be limited, through video calls, we may actually be seeing and speaking to more people this year than ever before 鈥� and reconnecting with family, friends and associates for the first time in years.

And through these interactions, we are subtly communicating not only our personalities, but also our personal styles, which we all possess. No one understands this more than MT Meikle, founder and co-owner of La Closette, a premier fashion consultancy specializing in personal styling and online style consulting for work and play.

鈥湴拿帕喜士敝辈� encompasses everything: how you talk, mannerisms, posture and first impressions, and the first thing people judge is what the other person is wearing, and details can make or break it, so it鈥檚 important to take the time to focus on the details,鈥� says Meikle. 鈥淓ven while at home during these days. If you want to feel better at home, you present yourself better and you are then more productive. Even on a screen, people are analyzing what you鈥檙e wearing and how you鈥檙e put together, even before you speak, as it鈥檚 the same as seeing someone in person.鈥�


Meikle has a degree in science from McMaster University and was introduced to fashion by making extra money as a model. And, after going to school at the Academy of Fashion Design and having two daughters, she started her own business to allow her some additional freedom. She met her business partner, Irene Kim, while making a presentation at a law firm, and their sympatico and mutually supportive partnership has flourished these past nine years.

鈥淟a Closette helps our clients uncover their own style and gives them confidence,鈥� says Meikle, on their business success. 鈥淚f you have confidence in what you鈥檙e wearing, you end up looking great and feeling great, and it impacts everything in your life. You need to own your style. Don鈥檛 let a label own you. You create your own style and need to be the owner of it, to be feeling good about what you are wearing and feeling confident about yourself.鈥�

La Closette believes that everyone has their own style, even if they don鈥檛 realize it. And there is a huge difference between shopping for clothes and shopping for 鈥渟tyle.鈥� 鈥淪hopping for clothes is just throwing it into your closet by accumulating clothes,鈥� observes Meikle. 鈥淪hopping for style means you are buying pieces which are meant to be versatile for your wardrobe and your body. [It鈥檚] your vision for the pieces for who you are and who you want to be, and you don鈥檛 have to spend a lot. Here, we can be of real value, as clients come to us to create a wardrobe, and we do a style audit first on what they might need before they buy.鈥�

La Closette has recently become part of a partnership in a new initiative called Operation 03, which puts on specially curated fashion events once per month with different themes to benefit both the retailers that are providing the fashions, with additional exposure, and the shoppers, with special discounts. With strict safety protocols in place, it keeps alive the retailing experience with new thinking during the pandemic.

鈥淲e wanted to do luxury sample sales in luxury venues,鈥� says Meikle. 鈥淲e are providing retailers and designers an opportunity to showcase their products as art pieces in distinctive venues. These are all highly curated events and will provide the shoppers with exclusive retail and multi-sensory experiences like no other to make them feel special and indulgent.鈥�

It is another example of how well La Closette understands its customers. 鈥淭hey trust us with their personal lives, as we look into their homes, closets and budgets, and we do it with kindness,鈥� says Meikle.

鈥淲e may have felt we鈥檝e lost some control this year, so little wins can mean so much to us and put a smile on our faces, like a reimagining of our personal style and an investment now for the brighter days that may hopefully lie ahead.鈥�
