DAVID BEAMISH
ACTOR
"Maurizio Laino is a terrific stylist and now friend of mine. When I needed to suit up last minute for a film festival, he was my saviour; had me looking and feeling like a ginger James Bond in 30mins!!
We now plan to shoot together and I couldn't be happier to work with this true fashion pro again.
Again, I'm truly grateful for your help & will continue to recommend you!"

SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHER
"From someone who not only doesn't like shopping for clothes, but who also doesn't know what suits me when I do give it a try, it was a fantastic experience to have you "do all the work" for me. I was blown away at the racks of clothes waiting for me, the reserved dressing room, the way you put me at ease... It was clear you'd spent quite some time arranging a wardrobe that would suit not only my physical characteristics but my personality too. And all from answering some questions online and a quick chat on the phone!
I had fun Maurizio. Thank you so much for helping me past the "I'll just wear the same thing everyday" blockage. I've received numerous compliments from colleagues at work and I rave about the experience to each of them. The digital wardrobe has been a saviour in choosing combinations for my daily look and the advice you gave, even with regards to clothing options I didn't purchase, has been invaluable and has spurred me to shop for some other key pieces for my wardrobe.
Thanks again Maurizio, and I'll probably see you some time in the future for another session!"
PAUL
BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP MANAGER
"I’m a pretty average guy who, let’s be frank, had a pretty average wardrobe that hadn’t really changed for some 25yrs of adulting. I was well overdue for an upgrade and wanted to find a style that felt more me rather than simply falling back on the boring safety of T-shirt and jeans all the time. Maurizio was just who I needed to turn to!
Spending time with Maurizio was easy and a fantastic way to spend time investing in myself. He is fun, empathetic and encouraging. Maurizio established trust and rapport from the moment we got in touch with each other. This allowed me to feel comfortable in being honest about what I wanted as well as what worried me when it came to changing up my style. There was no such thing as a stupid question, and that helped to challenge my many false assumptions about styling It also allowed me to walk away with far more knowledge and confidence about styling - which was invaluable.
After a day of wardrobe edit and shopping with Maurizio I now feel far more confident in adjusting my style to suit various occasions while also being able to bring out more of my natural personality. No more relying on bland T-shirt and jeans for me!
Overall, a very positive experience and worthwhile investment in myself. Maurizio’s services are not just for celebrities or fashionistas, but also for the everyday man!
Mille Grazie Maurizio!!"

DOCTOR
"I had a thee hour styling session with Maurizio. It was so much fun with stepping out of my comfort zone and trying out different colours and styles.
We spent a great amount of time selecting and trying on with layers of colour and hues. Great advice from Maurizio with regards to being creative with hat, shoes and denim. I got the exact casual look I was hoping for. His digital wardrobe is amazing. When I (the new me) caught up with my family and friends, it was a pleasant surprise to see their reaction!"
MIRANDA DAISY
ENTREPRENEUR
"Working with Maurizio has been a game-changer for me! Even years later, I still use the valuable lessons he taught me. The color palettes he recommended are a permanent fixture on my wall, serving as a daily reminder of what suits me best. His guidance has completely transformed the way I shop—I’m now confident in choosing high-quality materials for timeless pieces and more affordable options for trendy items.
Maurizio’s expertise has saved me countless hours in stores; I know exactly what works for my body shape. His service was worth every penny, and I believe everyone should treat themselves to a consultation like this every few years. I still catch myself thinking, “Would Maurizio approve of this?” Highly recommend!"
JESSICA IUELE
SPEECH PATHOLOGIST
"After struggling to find a dress for my engagement party Maurizio helped me to find the perfect dress to match the occasion. After this Maurizio also supported me to find my wedding dress. He helped identify the best style dress for me as well as what best suited the venue of my wedding. He had so much patience with going to numerous stores to ensure we found the right fit. My dress was perfect on the day and I could not have been happier."
JENNY
SCHOOL PRINCIPAL
"Maurizio,
Just wanted to formally email and thank you for your friendly approach and wonderful 'Mother of the Groom' dress advice and service this week. Very rarely these days do people like yourself who put so much enthusiasm and talent into their work get recognized for just being themselves... so a huge thank you from me!"
CHERYL
TRAINING RESOURCE ADMINISTRATOR
"As a lover of all the finest things of life I can shop till I drop! One of my greatest joys is shopping for clothing and accessories. I am guilty of a wardrobe that bursts with too much stuff - never finding an outfit easily or in a hurry.
Maurizio to the rescue! As a personal friend and someone who knows my style and what makes me look good I get Maurizio to organize my wardrobe. I trust his sense of style!
He arrived in the morning and first sorted the good from the bad. In other words what I needed to keep and what needed to be culled. Then it was merchandising my wardrobe into colour/style stories, and putting the wardrobe into a comprehensive arrangement of complete outfits for day and/or evening wear. This exercise took all day! I was so very pleased with the outcome and I look forward to another day as there have been many more shopping trips since our last exercise.
Maurizio you are the best! You have so much sophistication, style and a good aesthetic about what works."
KATIA
FACILITATOR
"'What a complete mess!' - That’s how I would have described my wardrobe before I hired the services of Maurizio.
It was a daily stress trying to find an outfit for work and then from professional attire to try and look like some kind of diva at night. Maurizio helped me lose all the anxiety of putting together outfits, compartmentalizing my clothes to fit my needs and showing me what clothes best suited my body type as well as colour scheming. He made it look like a breeze and I appreciated his very calm manner in doing so.
I highly recommend Maurizio’s services, I cannot thank him enough for educating me and giving me my time back to be able to easily now choose outfits for all occasions.
Please do yourselves a huge favour and give this man a call!"
JEFF
PROJECT CO-ORDINATOR
"I had decided that my wardrobe was looking tired and I knew that I needed help to sort things out. Whilst friends are good with things like that, they can only go so far, so I knew that I was in need of a professional – that’s where Maurizio came in!
We had a meeting over coffee where I talked about my current dilemma and then it was back home to my house for a wardrobe makeover. I have to say that I was a little daunted by the whole process, but Maurizio put me at ease as we discussed likes and dislikes, styles and colours and those items I couldn’t live without (read ‘keeping them just-in-case…’).
An hour later and feeling quite liberated by the whole process, I had been given a new insight into clothing that would suit me. When we had finished I had a pile of clothes for recycling, ideas for using one or two old favourites in different ways and… I had managed to let go of the ‘just-in-case’ clothes!
Clearly, a shopping trip was in order and I asked Maurizio if I could book him in for a follow-up session. Again, this was a delight! Although we met in the city, Maurizio has a great knowledge of ‘hidden gems’ away from the traditional shopping malls. These proved to be a bonus for one-off items such as funky T-shirts and sneakers. The highlight of the day was ending up with more items than I had expected and under the budget I had discussed with Maurizio!
A wardrobe makeover is a great experience and I encourage everyone to try it!"
VANIA
STRATEGY & OPERATIONS MANAGER
"It was a surprise birthday gift for my Mum and leading up to the day Maurizio kept in contact with me, to sort my requirements and needs – and was very clear on next steps, meeting point, etc.
On the day, he was FABULOUS! He made my mother feel so special, took such extra care for her. The service was absolutely impeccable.
He not only provided an amazing shopping experience but went above and beyond to provide her tips and tricks based on his very clear expertise in the industry.
He paid us his entire attention the entire time; just cared that we were having an excellent day. She left the experience saying she’s never felt so special! And of course, with many, many bags of items.
I wanted to provide this feedback as Maurizio truly connected with his customers that day and made them feel like they were in “another world” for a few hours, which wouldn’t usually be in reach.
Really appreciate it!"

"I purchased a 3 hour Shopping session with Maurizio for my wife and I couldn't have been happier with the outcome.
The new clothes she brought home were not only fantastic thanks to Maurizio's guidance, but the joy on my wife’s face when she came home that afternoon was priceless. She was on top of the world!
Not to mention the pleasure she gets wearing her new outfits!
I realised the shopping trip was far more than just about the new clothes. It was an experience that made her buzz and feel great on so many levels.
Thanks Maurizio."
